The present paper focuses on Mahatma Gandhi’s and Seyyed Hossein Nasr’s eco-philosophy in connection to the current environmental crises. Both scholars are considered as the pioneers of modern environmental movements of their respected faith. By correlating Gandhi’s and Nasr’s spiritual discussion with the environment, this article investigates how deeply the actions of human have impact on the equilibrium of this phenomenal world. The paper also tries to expose why Gandhi and Nasr understanding of natural world and suggestions in relation to the sustainability of natural world look meaningful. Here, descriptive, and analytical methods are used to define eco-spiritual and eco-philosophical ideas of both scholars from their prescribed religious tradition and how far their understanding is relevant to present situation. The comparative analysis highlights some similarities and disparateness in their eco-philosophy. In doing so, this research will contribute to current debate of environmental crises and spiritual crises of modern secular man. The study concludes that despite the differences in beliefs and practices, both eco scholars have shared a common goal of promoting ecological harmony. Their sacred understanding of the natural world motivates humans to endorse harmonious relations with other species of this phenomenal world and their basic right of living and flouring.
