परचक्क भीदिरहिदो, अण्णाय पयट्टणेहिं परिहीणो । अइवट्ठि-अणावट्टी परिचत्तो सव्वकालेसु ।।
Tiloyapaņņatti Ist Part, 4th Chapter -2251 (i.e. in Kahcha Videha area there is never lawlessness, use of unfair means and never shortage or excess of rainfall and the area is immune from retrogression).
The above suggests prescription for the present generation. If we can control our numbers and wants to carrying capacity and renewability of natural resources then the retrogression and degradation will stop and process of progression will start to the stage of Sukhamā and even Sukhamā-Sukhamā. Time will stop. Human efforts in right direction as ordained in Jainism can achieve this.
