We all know that Corona Virus or COVID 19 originated from Wuhan - China in December last year. What many of us know is that, it doesn't affect animals (till I write this) and only humans are affected by this novel virus.
Do have a look at this video which explains how this virus has pressed a reset button. Many animals are back to what they were doing and where they belonged once, in the absence of humans.
On March 22, when whole of India was shut, few deers were spotted sitting on the roads in few cities.
2004 we had this devastating Tsunami that killed over a lakh in a matter of few hours. We cleared our coast, encroachments for few weeks. Once the fear disappeared, we were back to encroaching the sea shore and polluting waterbodies.
We had flash floods in Uttarakhand in 2012, which took away many lives on course of nature claiming back its course. After few months, again we started to occupy nature's territory
2015 we had a worst of kind floods in Chennai, with water level touching as high as 14 feets in some areas. One reason for this, waterways were blocked by buildings. Nature tried to take back its property.
Now this Corona. Many say, the virus is primarily due to the eating habits of Chinese.
Going by all these, is the nature trying to punish us for not respecting it and not compassionate to other living beings, I m referring to Jeeva Karunyam. And of course many housing units today were not long ago were farm, yard, garden home to birds and few species. Knowingly or unknowingly we have snatched them.
I saw on video about how 5G is responsible for Corona outbreak in Wuhan. 10 minute video has a shade of 2.O movie. I also read articles that debunked this theory. I don't want to get into that, as I said, I m only a good typist. (Hold on, I m not part of so called activist, environmentalist or anything).
Coming back to Jeeva Karunyam, does the solution lies in we showing compassion to other creatures from birds to Gau Matha to other animals?
Understand, I m not telling anyone to Go vegan. I m not telling what to eat and what not to eat. Its your choice.
Kerala consumes lot of beef and its affected severely. NE states too consume lot of beef but they are immune to Covid till I write this. Gujarat which has sizeable Vegans also hit by the virus.
By compassion, I m not telling only meat eaters will be hit. Many vegans could be on the victims list. Few ppl who feed animals regularly too could have got infected with Virus while some meat traders remain unaffected. Reason, I give so many example is because I don't want ppl to assume something and share that theory alone through Social Media. Once things are back to normal, god willing, intend to commission a research, if I get opportunity / permission / resources on this area.
Whether it has relevance or not, we all must practice Jeeva Karunyam. Feeding grains to birds to keeping water to them to feeding pets. Many are doing no doubt, but its time we recognize that earth belongs to everyone.
