In India there are these mythological stories of Sita, Savitri on reading them one says – I would like to have a woman like this or become a woman like this. For them it is said that they even not lifted their eyes to see another’s man.
Which India? The India where women are still chattal, property, uneducated, in fear of their lives, controlled for their whole lives by patriarchal society? Here are the crime statistics for India,
link. Where else have you travelled to? I'd say the poor ... it is they that you talk of ... and mostly happy because of the sun ... and their utter resignation to their condition. The cold and wet, as in your Europe makes human beings very closed and miserable. These Sitas are metaphorical allegories, surely? Following one Ram, or one Krishna?
Baba via Veerendra Dev Dixit gives the example that which animals fall sick more, those who live free in the jungle or those in contact with human beings. It is because of this power of thoughts in the human beings that they get influence by the vibrations of impurity of man.
May be he was talking metaphorically of dieties in the jungle of human beings today? Unfortunately, animals in the wild are subject to Darwinian 'natural selection'. The ones with the biggest claws and teeth, or the ones that can hide or run the fastest, the ones that can be the most poisonous, surviving the longest whilst animals in captivity are subject to inbreeding but how many of each actually get to live out a long and "natural" lifespan? Life is short, brutal and restless, and then there is man cutting down their forests, burning their land and hunting them out of existence.
Do you mean the vast majority that die in childhood, the little animals that are eaten alive or the big wild animals that eat the little wild animals until the little wild animals run out and then they starve too? How many die because their hooves, tusks or beaks grow too long crippling and stabbing them. Nature red in tooth and claw. What "proofs", what statistics do we have to support this? A cat in the wild will live a much shorter like than a cat on a warm lap. And you can read that metaphorically too.
Andrey, with all due respect for one surrendered to a religious life and compassion from one that tried, save yourself from religious romanticism a very sublte form of Maya. The here and now is hard. I know that. Very hard. We need dreams to want to survive but illusions are unhealthy. And even if your dreams are going to come true, if you want to sell them to others, be real about them too.
I mean this kindly, why not learn to write devotional poetry or romantic novels and work it out of your system positively? The world needs inspiration like that. Hold your dreams lightly and don't claim the are "real" or you will push people away from it.
