Dogs Teach Us That

Dogs teach us that love is so powerful that many of those who love eating variety meat (i.e. non-vegetarians) would hesitate/avoid eating the meat of a dog irrespective of protein, fat, taste or other benefits that dog meat might contain. In fact, some (non-veg.) people (particularly girls), find dogs so charming that as soon as they see a dog on the road, exclaim - Oh how cute! How lovely! Nothing against non-vegetarian people but it shows how powerful love is. Dogs teach us the power of love. Yet we like to hate each other based on religion, caste, region, language, etc.
Love is so powerful that people do not hesitate keeping dogs at home just because they look cute to them (without caring for the expense). Some dogs are lucky enough to sleep on beds/sofas in air conditioned rooms. On the other hand animals or birds like hen, cock, buffalo, goat, donkey, etc., who give something (milk, meat, egg, service etc.) do not generally get the deserved respect. They are often seen as source of income and sold (sometimes to be killed and maybe eaten by someone) if they do not perform.
Love does not demand equal love in return. Whether or not the owner shows equal love for the dog, the dog never fails to show its love and loyalty to the fullest towards its manager. Every single time it sees its manager (owner) it greets him with utmost love irrespective of what it gets in return.

Dogs teach us that where there is true love, there is no place for insult, disrespect, hatred etc. I have seen in several families, dogs wanting to sit where other family members are sitting/talking but they are repeatedly asked to go out and they just don’t utter a word (in their language of course) and go out. They seldom show any ego.

Dogs teach us love – the power of love.

ज्योतिष के विषय से मैंने इस वेबसाइट पर लिखना शुरू किया था परंतु ज्योतिष, धर्म और समाज को अलग अलग कर के देख पाना बड़ा कठिन है. शनैः शनैः मेरी यह धारणा प्रबल होती जा रही है कि जो भी संसार में हो चुका है, हो रहा है अथवा होने वाला है वह सब ईश्वर के ही अधीन है अथवा पूर्वनियोजित है. लिखना तो मुझे बाल्यकाल से ही बहुत पसंद था परंतु कभी गंभीरता से नहीं लिया. कविताएं लिखी, कहानियां लिखी, निबंध लिखे परंतु शायद ही कभी प्रकाशन के लिए भेजा. मेरी कविताएं और निबंध (जिनका संकलन आज न जाने कहाँ हैं) जिसने भी देखे, प्रशंसा ही की. यह सब ईश्वर की कृपा ही थी. धार्मिक क्षेत्र में मेरी रुचि सदा से ही रही है परंतु पुत्र होने के बाद थोड़ा रुझान अधिक हुआ है. ना जाने कब ईश्वर ने प्रेरणा दी और मैंने इस पर लिखना शुरू कर दिया.
