Summary/Abstract: Health is a reciprocal term that combines mutual co-existence in the environment with a considerable veneration to all forms of life. Life on earth is a result of some favourable conditions in the environment from the empirical point of view. So, the health of the environment remains the supreme, and thereby life, once created, has to keep up the conditions in order to sustain or survive itself. Thus there has always been a fascinating relation between health and environment since the dawn of creation of life on earth. Among the innumerable forms of life on earth human beings are considered the best since they are gifted with immense possibilities to comprehend, create, nourish, admonish, reject and accept. So, they have to shoulder the responsibility largely to secure the health of the environment which, in other terms, is the health of the varieties of life forms on earth. Through the ages they undertook overwhelming initiatives that surely advertise humanity; and literature, especially Eco-critical, has been the best call to humanity in order to restore health which is, as mentioned earlier, very much reciprocal. Literature upholds and worships the heavenly relation between health and environment,humanity and Nature. It celebrates the reconciliation of man and environment in the name of poetry very often.
