Dear all,
I am too ashamed of being born as a human. On the other hand my human instincts propel me to fear being born as a non-human, an animal.
I experience a multi-dimensional feeling. I feel helpless, I feel Powerless, and partly appear benign.
Animals, are capable of love. We all have cats and dogs. We understand how well they understand us. In fact I have a pet dog too.
I would like to recount an anecdote about my dog and me.
" I had just returned from a tired day's of work. I was terribly weak, and perhaps was even running a temperature. I got off the car, and there she was waiting for me, so patiently to welcome me home, with her warm hugs and licks, wagging her tail with utmost vigor. I felt giddy, and I fainted and swooned to the ground. I regained conscientiousness in say half a minute. But when I was back, I witnessed something so beautifully touching. My dog, sobbing, she was cry out loud, her heart beat had shot up, and she was licking me all over trying to revive me. And soon after I was fine, she didn't want me to leave her sight. She caught hold of me so tightly and stubbornly! She just ripped my heart off with her immense Love! "
Well, I got lost in those vivid memories. Nevertheless, let me resume what I intended to address initially.
Why can't we treat all animals alike. We love dogs and cats and rabbits, etc. But what about Pigs, and Chickens, and Cows and Fish, and so many other animals that we so indulgently devour!
Don't you find them cute enough? Forget about the beauty, it's after all just skin deep!
Do you think they are not capable of feeling pain? Do you think, they have been sent to earth, only to be reared and sent to slaughter houses? Do you think, they don't have flesh and blood, and nerves and veins and a body and a soul?
They very well do. They feel happiness and pain, just as we humans do. They feel anxiety, and trauma, and any feeling that is displayed my the human beings.
I beseech all my readers to have a look at the above video. I insist that you sit through the entire video. It might gross you out at the beginning. But view it entirely, and witness what we are doing?
How would you feel, if your loved ones ( say your mother, brother or best friend) were treated in a similar manner? If they were sent to be slaughtered, so that some other superior creature could enjoy a tasty delicacy of your beloved ones?
I don't mean to offend anyone, but, I would like to look at us and the animals at an equal scale. And I sincerely hope that you will do so too.
God, please don't abandon us. We have erred to the degree of being forsaken, please do get back and
Help us, Heal Our broken souls............
The video really rips the heart to several pieces..If people still dont become vegetarians, then the human race should just end.. Its a pity how we all selfishly want everything.. Even if that thing has blood visiting its heart just like ours' does..!
ReplyDeleteTouched by your words of truth.. keep posting
Very well said. The human race is so selfish that it ends, leave alone the life of animals, but also the life of fellow human beings. Whatever is shown in the video (and god knows how far its true) is a shame to the human race and the non-vegetarians. If 1 still wants to remain non-vegetarian, i'd suggest you enjoy this life as much as you can, because you might end up as that animal next life.
