Environment is not merely the atmosphere and other physical factors surrounding us but is the complex of all factors which not only affects one organism one time, but all organism all the time. In a larger sense, environment constitutes the various physical, mental, social, spiritual, educational, economic and intellectual aspects of whole humanity and when kept healthy and inspiring, it promotes the progress and development of mankind. The whole world today is deeply concerned over the issues of ecology and environment. Right from a common man in the street up to the universal organization like U.N.O. and the top most leaders of all nations talk about the measures to be taken for saving the world from a disastrous catastrophe that is definitely going to happen, if adequate measures are not taken in time. The discussions at numerous international meets and conferences echo the same concern, but so far only a little hope for avoiding this disaster has emerged. It seems that so far little attention is paid to the spiritualistic measures which were suggested in the millennia old wisdom expressed in the sutras maxims and aphorisms-found in the vast Jain literature. These sutras are basically the expressions of universal truths realized through intuitional insight developed by spiritual practices. The metaphysical doctrine of the existence of soul as a real substance is the base of the spiritualistic philosophy of Jainism. According to this doctrine, the objects like earth, water, fire, air and vegetation, which appear to be inanimate, are actually possessed of the soul, that is, they are all. This research paper introduces the contribution of Jain philosophy towards environment and natural resource management through its belief and application of it through day today routine of life.
