Abstract	Feminists and environmentalists joined forces in the twentieth century under the common name "Eco-feminism" to handle such problems. This platform embraced the cause of the colonised group comprising of nature, women, the dark coloured people, the impoverished folk, the locals, the marginalised sector, animals or any other less fortunate ones due to their biology, culture, or economic condition. The theory delivers a sense that occurred before engagement in its philosophical introduction and strengthens its basis by encompassing the several social constructions implanted in the ancient Civilisations of the world. From another perspective, all the associated control of liberal, cultural, spiritual, and social addresses is the various yardstick of the abuse of women and nature. Kamala Das comes from a very well-known matriarchal socio-social background that has lately almost disappeared and has shown on Das the intuition to fight against the patriarchal mistreatments both in life and in writing. Das is applying the "body story" concept related to environmental awareness to an amazing, preferred perspective. She plays on the "body" allegory as metonym in most of her attempts to argue her case that the woman's body becomes the masculine region for joy to be disposed of following use. The two teeth of patriarchy, male self-image and perversion, tend to ignore or lack of respect the feminine body which is sacred and heavenly. In this sense she praises the feminine body as both the provider and the recipient of pleasure. The Radha-Krishna concept of man lady relationship demands pre-greatness in the reading of her literature, much as the "Nair matriarchy" which is somewhat similar to the ancient Goddess group that Eco-feminists praise. Her works seem to be founded in culture as Das is essentially distracted with the reclaiming of the "body" from the area of patriarchy which is a main concern of One needs to consider, her conversion to Islam at the distant end of her life. It was an open revolt against her modern civilisation that failed to pay attention to her siren cry to return to the ancient "Prakriti-Purusha" practices.
