Animals. I am sorry.
I was wrongly made to believe that we humans are superior and we have conquered this planet and we have dominion on the lesser animal species. We told lies to ourselves, oh we have the 6th sense which animals don't have. They just have the instinct - to procreate and survive. They do not have wishes or taste or wants or love. Put them in a cage, they will just sit there eating their food.
How grossly wrong was I / we are.
Animals are not just human, but more than human. In fact I don't think we should measure animals in the human yardstick. We have pillaged this planet and extinguished beautiful creations of God. We humans are not good.
Animals are better than Humans.
Animals are kinder than Humans.
They do not destroy the environment. They enrich it. They kill, but only for their survival - not for pleasure.
I am sick of our race.
You might wonder - why this sudden outrage Venkat?
3 news items in succession triggered this in me. 2 Beautiful Lions shot dead because a guy tried to commit suicide by jumping into their habitat in a zoo. A Beautiful Gorilla shot dead to protect a kid that fell into its cage. In China right now as we speak for a festival millions of beautiful lovable dogs are being slaughtered for meat.
And the daily carnage that is happening all over the world - millions of Chickens, Turkey, Cows, kind goats, baby goats, gentle Buffaloes, camels, Sharks, billions of fishes and crabs - all being slaughtered in cold blood - some with bare hands, most by automated machines - not to satiate our hunger for our survival, but for feeding our sensory buds. Recently saw a day or two hatched chickens being put into this horrible machine, and red minced meat was coming out on the other side. ( Will not share these videos here ).
I am sick of the lies being peddled - oh you need Protein - as if our humble Daal does not have enough. I am sick of the torture these beautiful animals have to go through daily to be beefed up and finally killed in an instant mechanically. Thousands languish in cages ( oh no cannot be millions - as we have destroyed them all ).
I am feeling helpless and angry and sad.
Anyway - here are a few videos I saw where animals act unlike humans.. but with love. It is what God intended.
I will keep adding to the videos here.. whenever I come across.. reminder to myself that we don't know anything of these lovely neighbours who co-inhabit this planet - and will respect them, love them, and wonder at them.
