‘Don’t ever mistake my silence for ignorance,
My calmness for acceptance and my kindness for weaknesses’
Most Indians, cutting across religions, feel they enjoy religious freedom, value religious tolerance, and ‘regard to respect for all religions as central to what India is as a nation from different religions’ says Pew Center report on religious attitudes in the country.
Reports are reports but do they represent reality? The answer is yes and no. But these reports make you feel good. These are as good as weather reports or horoscope predictions of the coming week.
Yes, because most people want to believe that they are politically right and often respond to surveys with nice to say responses. Most are fence-sitters and non-committal too.
The most troublesome and albeit dangerous are the ones (more than a handful) who seek fame and name out of creating problems. They operate under the garb of freedom of speech and creativity even if it annoys some innocent people- they don’t care. They are also very ‘Shatir’, ‘Kainyan’ which in English is called wily or vicious. They want to be part of a big controversy but want to stay away from ‘real trouble’. Getting trolled is a part of a good sellable resume! Like Bollywood actors love getting mobbed (they don’t say it). Imagine the mental harassment of an actor if he is not recognized by a crowd in the mall! These guys (sorry Hyenas) love strong cuss words, they enjoy it. Going to jail for a week is something they love. ‘Fame ke liye kuch bhi karega’ is their underlying approach. Boss, it is their profession to become freedom fighters- freedom of speech bro! Imagine they have millions of followers after every silly thing they do. Bravo.
This much and no more- they know their limits and like hyenas, they go for a soft kill. They would never come near someone who will slit their throat or better chop off their head (the way you chop a bamboo stem with a Khukhari) and tiny genitals, no way bro. They only chase Impalas and Gazelles which are innocent antelopes and do not usually attack once attacked – these innocent fellows run for their life. A hyena will never attack a Tiger or a Leopard- They are shit scared of them. They want name fame but want to live another day- ‘Jaan sabko pyari hai dost’.
But wait, wait -they are Comedians too. They are probably the only animals who laugh- I am not joking- While this behavior has earned the spotted hyena a reputation, it may be even better known for the spine-tingling sounds it produces, among them, cackles and giggles that sound remarkably similar to human laughter. A hyena may also produce a laughter-like sound when it is frustrating. You hate them for this laughter- yuk! Are you beginning to see a resemblance? Yes, you do.
As cursorial hunters, hyenas run down their prey to exhaustion, cruising at speeds 60 km per hour for several miles. These hyenas operate in groups. These fame-seeking ‘urban hyenas’ also have their groups- jungle groups on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp is their newly found ‘turf of freedom’. It is undulated turf with no regulations- almost limited. So each one supports others on social media- ‘Chalo- wahan koi khatra nahi hai’. Public appearances in the jungle are easy. TV studios are their best bet. TV anchors are scared of them as they could lose their job, as media anchors do have a code of conduct to follow, also have to behave in front of these hyenas and hyenas know it. Every shitty hyena becomes a ‘Sher’ in a studio. Sometimes Hyenas also appear in TV studios as “Anchor hyenas”. They support these ‘urban hyenas’ too. They all have a mob mentality. But no character. Got it now?
Hyenas are so smart- have you seen a group of growling hyenas retracting almost shitting when the lion roars? If frightened, the hyena tucks its tail between the legs and flat against the belly and usually skulks away.
‘I started this week with a box of patience… the box is now empty… you stole my patience’- an innocent antelope to a hyena.
If escape is not an option, antelope are capable of fighting back. Oryxes in particular have been known to stand sideways like many unrelated Bovids to appear larger than they are, and may charge at a predator as a last resort. Now his patience has run out.
‘I usually give more chances than they deserve but once I am done, I am done.’
Hyenas are very scared of those who retaliate, they will give out their hyenish laugh even while retreating and still give a pat on their back and their pack with slogans like ‘Nafrat ki jeet hui aur artist ki haar’; Hate won and an artist lost.
Artist- my foot. Hyenas are no artists they are animals and lowly animal species. They are English-speaking stinking and yet animals. Hyenas stink.
‘Now the innocent deer- who is comparable to the Gods – has understood the game and has changed his stance’
The Horned God – Cernuous, Shiva, or Pashupati. For a long time, the Gundestrop Cauldron has been hailed as one of the most beautiful examples of Celtic art. It is now considered that the image of the horned god is that of Pashupati, a Shiva found in the early Indus Valley civilization.
SHIVA symbolizes consciousness, the masculine principle. SHAKTI (or Prakriti) means energy, power, and nature.
SHIVA is pure consciousness – the unchanging, unlimited, and unswayable observer. Purusha has no desires whatsoever; these are inherent only in Prakriti. Purusha is the empty, clear screen onto which Prakriti projects her colorful film. Only when Shiva and Shakti combine can action, movement and creation arise. Until energy is impregnated with consciousness it is ignorant, disordered, aimless, and “blind”. Energy alone can produce nothing; consciousness bestows upon it content, form, and direction. Conversely, consciousness without energy is dormant power, sleeping energy, and on its own is unable to be the cause of anything. Just as Prakriti without Purusha is unable to act, and vice versa, Purusha without Prakriti is also incapable of creating anything.
You better tuck your tail bro and retreat… remember Shiva and Shakti have now combined.
