Received a beautiful note from a friend. We are friends because we are penniless aristocrats. He was damn worried about the division of humanity and was trying to squarely blame the venom of hatred, though using the different tools, like religion, ethnicity, colour and class division that leads to contemptuous behaviour towards the less fortunate. I have a feeling he is deeply impressed by nelson Mandela, saying that poverty is man made disease. The hatred does not have a single etiological factor but has multifactorial aetiology.

Out of all these animals the most destructive animal of nature is human being and second is an elephant. Though the destructive instinct is widely attributed to animals or beasts as they have not been gifted by Mother Nature of higher centres. They have senses like the most knighted human being but have no brain to acquire knowledge and wisdom and a place to store in the upper story. Their senses give them limited access to know the universe. But what ever they have been gifted, they use them but very rarely abuse them.

The human being has been given the knowledge and wisdom and so they have been made answerable. It does not mean that human beings have no beastly characteristics. They do have and when come to use it they use it viciously. With decapitation of human beings at the level of eyebrows will still keep their heart beating their needs for biological life will remain minus higher senses and thinking ability.

We don't like certain things perceptively. Like exploitation, contemptuous behaviour, dictators, army. We have  all of them. Have you heard of a dictator in the jungle. They are in herd but have no army. Because every one knows its limit/ jurisdiction. Knowledge can make you an angel but too much knowledge can change us to satan. Human being is complex animal.

They invent medicine to cure but all the destructive inventions are the creation of social animal. Noble prize is being given for peace but after he saw the destruction of his own invention, hand grenade. We are a mixture of good and bad. But we were not born like a plain white sheet, it is the gift of society and we are being used as actors. It is nasty and bad that provides us the sense to enjoy bad. Shouldn't we be thankful to bad doers? After all they have taught us how to relax and enjoy the good. The society evolution in my is lying in bad I may be wrong in my perception. We always agree to disagree with each other. Nothing new or surprising?

I am myself as confused as any one. As I told you Nas; that is there any need of religion for a learned person? It is a code of life for those
who have been deprived to acquire knowledge. I am in a a spider web and like a spider can't get out of it.
