The Ecosystem and its Existential Crisis

Through various tales observed in the theatre of nature do we get a lot to learn. Many a times, the animals or the plants or the swishing winds or the gushing waters have a lot to communicate, a lot to teach. A cornered animal tends to fight back ferociously and we have seen/heard stories of herbivores such as bulls or gazelles too fighting back advances of carnivores and no more consider them surprising, given the circumstances. Though the event itself is no more a surprise, the ferocity involved continues to amaze me and offers a glimpse into the vast untapped energy of an entity and its ability to channel it through its own name & form. This animalistic ferocity though not illogical in any way is out on full display in our nation today and the next seventeen months look ominous with dark clouds gathering on the horizon and a cornered animal making its last stand in a battle that began five years back.
