๐ง♂️ Me, We Humans Are the Worst Animals
Humans, both vegetarians and non-vegetarians, eat everything. We eat all fruits, flowers, leaves, destroy trees, and eat everything except humans.
We greedily scrape the honey that bees have collected in their hives on trees with great difficulty. And we kill the bees by setting fire under the hives.
It is their home and food storage, but we do not care about it. Honey is not human food, still, humans rob it.
Then what do those bees think about us?
๐ When We Steal Milk from Calves
When a cow or buffalo's hungry calf is drinking milk from a stable, a man drags it aside, ties it to another place, and takes the milk himself to sell it.
When a cow or buffalo gives birth to a new calf, the first milk that comes is very nutritious for the calf.
Man spoils it and does not let it be given to the calf.
When will we think about what that cow, buffalo, or calf must feel at that time?
Cows and buffaloes do not give milk to humans to sell, but to feed their calves. We have forgotten this due to our selfishness.
We should milk the calf when it is full or when it is big enough to eat fodder.
People do not think like this either. And milk is not the main food of any human being.
Explaining this to a person who kills a cow or buffalo and eats it is foolishness.
๐ When They Grow Old – We Kill Them
When a cow or buffalo is fattened, and a bullock is old, it is sent to the slaughterhouse.
Do we think like this about our old mother and father?
If we don't, then we have conveniently forgotten that it is our duty to take care of the cow or buffalo until it dies.
Emotions are only for humans, and not for animals, beasts, birds, trees, flowers, or marine life.
We live our lives thinking that way.
๐ Beasts of Burden
Elephants transport trees cut down in the forest, carry sand on donkeys' backs, break the noses of bullocks and horses and make them do hard work, shoe horses and make them race, beat them with whips — how can our progress be justified?
However, the invention of the tractor has reduced the labor of a few bullocks.
The bullocks must be thanking us for that.
It would be better if we did the hard work ourselves or had machines do it.
๐ The Painful Sight of Slaughter
Once I was watching, a man gathered a lot of chickens, goats, and sheep together and saw their eyes, and he was chopping the chicken's neck like chopping vegetables on a fork, and he ran a knife over the goat's neck and separated its head and tail.
I did not see that scene. I felt ashamed to be a human being, thinking about what feelings the chickens, goats, and sheep in front of me must have had about us on this occasion.
I still do not understand what bravery is in hunting tigers and lions with guns and hanging their skins on the wall in the living room at home.
๐ Are Dogs and Cats Born to Protect Humans?
Dogs and cats would tie a leash around their necks and run home. Their puppies would be stolen and sold.
What feelings would those cats and dogs have towards the people who keep the puppies?
Keeping birds in cages, keeping fish in aquariums, keeping wild animals in cages, keeping turtles in wells in houses — these give happiness to humans, but animals and birds only suffer and are imprisoned.
“Have mercy on the dumb animal” remains only on paper.
๐️ A Lesson from the Nightingale’s Nest
Once I was looking near a house, and a boy was breaking the nest of a nightingale bird on the window of the same house with a stick.
There were little chicks in the nest. The nightingale bird was running in the face of the boy, screaming, resisting.
Finally, I explained to the boy that if someone came and demolished your house, would you be okay?
I told the boy that and stopped demolishing the bird's nest. And the nightingale happily returned to its nest.
๐ณ What About Trees, Birds, and Land?
Roads, metros, railway lines, big societies, cities, buildings, dams were built. Those whose lands, farms, and livestock were rehabilitated — but how will the trees and birds on that land be rehabilitated?
When 100-200 year old trees are cut down by finding loopholes in the tree law, those trees must feel that they have given shade to this man for so many years, given oxygen, stopped the erosion of his land, given fruits, flowers, and shelter to birds.
In return, how unfortunate it is that he is cutting me down.
๐ Human Development or Natural Destruction?
How long will it continue for the sake of human development and desire that animals, birds, trees, fruits, and flowers will continue to sacrifice themselves?
Man spread the misconception that eating gourd cures back and waist diseases. Soon people started killing and eating that animal.
Due to such misconception, many species of animals have become extinct.
Some fish species have become extinct due to excessive mechanical fishing in the sea.
๐ The Law of Nature – “เคीเคตो เคीเคตเคธ्เคฏ เคीเคตเคจเคฎ्”
"Jivo Jivasya Jivanam" – one living being is food for another.
This phrase means that one living being is food for another; this concept is related to the natural food chain and the interrelationship of life in the ecosystem.
It shows the struggle for existence in the material world, where weaker or less dominant species become the support for stronger species.
If any part of this chain is disrupted, it can have widespread consequences.
But all animals follow this law of nature — the exception is humans, who are creating a major disruption in the food chain.
๐พ Breaking Nature’s Balance
Plants make their own food. Herbivores eat those plants.
Tigers and lions kill and eat animals, big fish eat small fish — this is the cycle of nature, which is why life on earth still exists.
However, we are breaking the food chain by eating and destroying everything.
They have created a hybrid of Hapus mango and normal mango, but what about the original mango variety?
I think it is not natural to create low-height trees (bonsai), to plant peepal bonsai in pots.
Genetic seeds have been created for the desire for more income, but what about the original natural seeds?
๐งช Chemicals, Pollution, and the Ghost of Intelligence
For their own benefit, chemicals, fertilizers, pesticides have been created. Germs and insecticides have been sprayed on crops and the natural resistance of those crops has been suppressed.
Medicines are sprayed on leafy vegetables, fruits and vegetables and we eat them.
Toxic gases are released from factory smoke and pollute the air, the temperature is increasing due to greenhouse gases.
The ozone layer is decreasing, the ice glaciers at the North Pole are melting on a large scale and the sea level is rising.
Rivers are polluted. There is noise and air pollution in big cities.
All this has happened because of humans alone.
Who gave us the right to do this?
Having received the gift of intelligence, we are acting arbitrarily.
But this gift is going to turn on us like a ghost.
The number of human beings on earth has increased tremendously, the balance of nature has been disturbed due to humans, and global warming is its forewarning.
๐ Only Compassion Can Save Life on Earth
I think that only if we seriously consider the feelings of animals, birds, animals, trees, fruits, flowers and nature, will the living creation survive?
๐ธ Final Thought
Let’s not forget —
“Nature doesn’t need humans. Humans need nature.”
Only when we feel what nature feels — will humanity truly awaken.
๐ญYour Turn to Think...
Have you ever paused for a moment to feel what nature feels?
If animals, birds, or trees could speak, what do you think they would say about us?
Share your thoughts in the comments — because sometimes, a single kind thought can make the world a little more compassionate. ๐ฟ๐
