Which Side Are You On...

What Pains Me...

Is when This Side says-

“See how many from our side have died!”

& when from That Side says-

“See how many on our side have died!”

Weather You Belong

To Majority OR Minority...

To Hindu OR Muslim...

As Sikh, Jain, Jew, Isaiah...

What Matters Is...

You’ve Understood Naught;

“The Pain Of Humanity...”

For In Loosing Another...

& Yet...

“Choosing To Be Indifferent...”

“WE ALL HAVE DIED!”

.

There’s not a Single Species in Nature that Kills its Own Kind, other than Humans!

We’re more steeped in our differences of Race, Caste, Colour, Religion!

We lack the ability to see ourselves in other.

Maybe to An Ant, the whole world is nothing But Ant...

Maybe it’s just A Metaphor...A Thought...

Have you seen a trail of ants following one another, They Never Deviate from their path! They work Unitedly & this aspect is seen even in a herd of elephants or even for that matter a pack of wolves.

Being carnivorous in nature a lion kills to feed himself, but only out of hunger...

Not because it’s offended that a deer is different from it.

Yet we humans are lost in our indifferences, in our not even being able to accept, what the other brings

.

My Beloved often says “To Hate Someone Only Stems from Not Loving Ones Self”

For the Self within you is same in another...

If only we could strip down our narrow-mindedness, down to our skin & bones, down to our colour & religions we belong, down till our hearts very core, then maybe we’d see the world the way an ant sees...

Who to us, may seem so tiny, but a reminder of the big ego that our minds of indifference swells to create more pain & misery

As an artist I’ve spent hours observing the beauty in the way ants move, I’ve sketched them often, over years, maybe through art we may only leave behind a thought, hoping the trail that follows, learns to see the way an ant sees.

For Human Beings are the only species, who “Accept”, that It’s Okay to “Kill” its Own Kind...To Hate other & Deviate from the path of Humanity!

Which side are you on....on side of Caste, Race, Religion, Colour...

Or on side of Humanity...
