SOME SERIOUS(SILLY)THOUGHTS

Can you recall, when was it the last time that you were yelled, scolded, shouted by some one,

And you retorted sharply, because the word used against you was that of an ,Animal, and felt your pride was totally  put to shambles.being the supreme human being

Well when I thought about this the names of some of the animals with Which we have been associated and scolded came to my mind aren’t these the very commonly used words,buffalo(aerumai) cow(maadu),DONKEY(KAZUTHAI)monkey(kurangu) and of course dog(nayae)

Well this made me to make some serious thinking, why  are  we called so?On the same day I got the answer for some of them.I was travelling in a car and was just looking out and registering the events that was getting captured, my thoughts were halted with a sudden jolt the driver had applied Brakes and in front of our vehicle there was a herd of cows having a jolly walk across the road, any amount of horning or hooting made no difference to them, they maintained, their pace and crossed the road in their usual way. OH this is what is called maadu mathri(like a cow) not heading to any external pressure, and having your own way.

W ell this reasoning was further enhanced, when I continued still further, this time what caught my attention was again a herd of cows and buffaloes ,grazing on the fields and to my surprise I found a few crows and sparrows had settled on its back and having a free ride and at times pecking at them, but there was no reaction from our friends, they did not even take cognizance that someone was making use of them and having a jolly ride, again the phrase MAADU MATHRI  came to my mind, so this had a different meaning, Not taking cognizance of your hardship and allowing others to make use of you. Is symbolically stated, when said  Maadu madri iru.

Is this all ,no I still have something  to add, I had travelled still further and again there was a slowing down of the car, this time again I wanted to know what can be the reason,? I saw that a overloaded bullock cart was maneuvering to move forward, the cows were helpless couldn’t express that they were stressed, but the rider was just lashing it thinking wonders may happen, so here again if some some said Maadu mathri iru, it means you should never express your difficulty, you should somehow deliver goods(aha this is the word used in all professional organization)even while you are hurt and bombarded ..

I was really getting worried why so many incidences linking a cow were happening on a single day and why I was extrapolating them and trying to decode them, while this was the thought that was lingering on  I watched  that a relatively young cow was galloping on the side lane ,and following that cow there were at least ten to fifteen cows which were racing with it,some were limping but they too were and galloping and running, not  aware what was the spark that made the first one to run and where they were heading too ,but  the other cows were following suite,so in this situation to be like a cow(maadu mathri) is to simply follow what ever your predecessor does not knowing where you would land.

Well now people who ever get a chance to read this can compare,their imaginations with relevant portion, yeah but I did really forget to tell you all PLEASE LISTEN TO Rajni,s song Vanthen da paal kareaen pasu maatha pathi pada poorean da, it really talks too high about cows, but I think who ever scolds us as Maadu have no reference to that song.

Well what about the other things, DONKEY,DOG,MONKEY……..,WELL I HAVE TO DO SOME RESEARCH ON THEM TO REALLY GIVE YOU SOME INFORMATIC IDEAS.

But let me finish this with some thing what I read in one of the books written by swami Nithyananda (yeah the same person who was jailed)Someone asks him the same questions ,why are we called as cow, donkey,etc.

So he has given a wonderful explanation, you become what you think,

when some one tries to throw insults,abuse,and dirt over you and you remain,without any reaction,you have started to behave like a cow.

 

When some one  touches you  and you react in a negative way just like the kick of a Donkey,and start brooding over thing and fall into depression,than you have started to behave like a donkey .

And lastly when some one trys to prod you and in response when you put your leg forward to move ahead than you have decided to be a horse , and set to make history.

“SO ULTIMATELY ITS OUR OWN REACTIONS WHAT MAKES US LET US MOVE FORWARD BRUSHING ASIDE,CTICISM AND INSULTS”
