Veda means "understanding" in Sanskrit. Mantra Pushpam is about a deep understanding of nature and all elements in nature. As one ponders on the elements, the interconnectedness of all of creation is revealed to us.
The sublime inter relationship between air, water, fire, light and heat from the sun, the moon, stars, clouds, rains is what sustains life and keeps the continuous flow of life energy. In this understanding, we will understand ourselves, our place in the universe and our purpose in life. Only this understanding can bring everlasting peace in us allowing us to sail through life in tranquility
This sacred interconnectedness of all things in the universe was understood not only by the wise sages of India but also by the native, or tribal people all over the world who lived in close proximity and alignment with nature.
Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect. - Chief Seattle
These is nothing superior. Like pearls strung on a thread, everything is hooked unto me. ( mattah parataram nanyat| kincid asti dhananjaya | mayi sarvam idam protam | sutre mani-gana iva ) - Bhagavad Gita
When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe. - John Muir
A human being is a part of the whole called by us as universe - Albert Einstein

In Sri Suktam the saint invites Goddess Lakshmi to his consciousness and recalls the Bhagavdam story Samudra manthan (which is nothing but clearing the weeds in us). After the poison comes out goddess Lakshmi, personification of purity emerges from the ocean.
