Download or read book You Don t Eat a Lion Doesn t Mean Lion Won t Eat You written by Udaylal Pai and published by . This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why Does God Punish Good People and Reward the Bad Guys?A relative of mine recently told me: "Uday, my husband has cancer - that too diagnosed in a very advanced stage. He is a good and pious man. He has helped everybody, loved everybody and done nothing wrong in his life. Still God has punished him..."When an innocent good student was brutally raped in Manipal, one of my friends told me "There are lots of girls who are frequently out at night spending time in pubs drinking and smoking till wee hours of morning - nothing happens to them. God is blind and there is no justice..."Once, a father of a newlywed daughter told me that his son-in-law was found to be totally immoral, drunkard, cheat and corrupt, with some diseases too. Whereas his daughter was a real gem of a human and he never ever thought God would cheat his daughter like this..."Such sad news always upsets me."Why is God so cruel?" they ask."World is unfair to me" is a popular complaint. Recently another friend of mine, Joyson Abraham, raised the same complaint."I understand that you follow certain set of principles in life. I know you follow all do's and don'ts as per your religion..." I said."Yes- still I had this shocking setback in life. My only son is suffering from Multiple Myeloma, bone-marrow cancer. We have been living a pious life..." his eyes welled up with tears. Every time when somebody cries or when I hear sad stories I can't control myself, it makes me cry.I told him: "I empathize with you. I can also feel the pain and pangs in you. So I also cry. But I recover fast. I know that you are a good man. But being good socially, legally, and spiritually (means religion-wise or cult-wise) doesn't necessarily mean you are cosmically good. Unfortunately we know nothing about cosmic rules and laws...""But the God told us how to live""The statements like 'God wants us to behave a certain way to receive rewards from him. Or God wants us to live in a certain way, else we will be sent to rotten hell' are either just fallacies of human mind or hallucinations of the very people who created such statements. No God would ever have come and told such things.""You mean to say there is no point in such beliefs of good and bad?""Joyson, it is good to have beliefs. Beliefs have placebo effects. But beliefs cannot be truth. The concept of 'God commands' is really poetic and philosophical imagination of some brilliant people, who must have considered themselves as prophets or God-sent-messengers. There is some truth in it. But mostly, all those set of principles are based on their CONCEPT of God. And the concepts are developed by the conditioning and learning that they had. Most of the concepts regarding God are similar to the story of the blind men and an elephant. Of course, they may have touched some part of cosmic secrets as 'God's words' but may not be in its entire form. Had they revealed the actual cosmic laws on good and bad, we would have had clear explanation to whatever happens in life...""So being good is no guarantee to...""When you say, being good, you have to add this: "I am being good based on the conditioning that I have about the good." It is subjective good but not cosmic good....""Life is so unfair and uncertain..." he said."The inconsistency of life makes it most beautiful. We do not know why bad things happen to good people like you. Our ego needs reasoning, so we find some stupid reasons to satisfy our ego. There could be many obvious reasons for bad things to happen, like genetic diseases, harm inflicted by others, natural calamities, accidents, financial losses. There may be intangible reasons like result of bad karma in this life or past. We do not know. It rains on everyone, irrespective of you being good or bad. Things happen whether you are good or not. There are ups and downs in life, irrespective of you being good or bad. Why should you associate it with your beliefs?"

Download or read book Save me from the Lion s Mouth written by James Clarke and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2013-09-18 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Save Me From the Lion's Mouth investigates the increasing conflict between people and wildlife in Africa and what needs to be done about it. It describes the human suffering and perceptions of those who live outside the reserve fences among man-eaters and marauders yet are excluded from the economic benefits accruing from the wildlife around them. It provides evidence of a growing resentment among rural communities, especially near game reserves and warns how it is threatening the existence of Africa’s game reserves. The book suggests that many in the Northern Hemisphere who support African wildlife conservation are blind to the seriousness of the situation. Some African states – notably Kenya and Tanzania – adopt wildlife policies to please donor countries from whom they receive millions of dollars. Thus government policies, many of them patently disastrous and certainly detrimental to rural Africans and to wildlife, are dictated from middle class homes across Europe and America. Fortunately there is a growing international lobby that is seeking solutions.

Book excerpt: On Safari, B.E.A., 16th October 1909. To Sir Alfred E. Pease. Dear Sir Alfred,—I am very much pleased that you are to write a book about lion-hunting. Very, very few people have an experience which better justifies such a book. It is the king of all sports when carried on as you have carried it on, especially when you gallop the lion, and then kill him on foot as he charges or prepares to charge as a lion thus rounded up will generally do. I am peculiarly pleased to have you write the book, for it was under your guidance that I first tried lion-hunting. Sincerely yours, Theodore Roosevelt. This hunting classic contains the following chapters: Foreword by Theodore Roosevelt I. Lions and Lion Land II. About Courage III. Of the Courage of Lions IV. Of Dangerous Game V. Of Sport VI. The Lion VII. The Distribution of Lions VIII. Lion Cubs and Tame Lions IX. The Haunts of Lions X. The Lion’s Voice and the Lion’s Eye XI. Some Ways of Lions XII. In the Lion’s Jaw XIII. The Food and Drink of Lions XIV. Lion-Hunting XV. Hunting with Dogs and Hunting with Horses XVI. Night-Shooting XVII. Hints for the Beginner
Download or read book Lions in the Balance written by Craig Packer and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Serengeti is one of the world's most renowned ecosystems, and at its apex prowls the Serengeti Lion. These majestic mammals are iconic, and integral, and also in constant danger from encroaching humans. Craig Packer is among the unique species that has spent a lifetime ensuring the study and perpetuity of these dark maned cats. He has dedicated countless research hours and dollars to the coexistence of humans and wildlife in the Serengeti. He has even proposed ways of using lion hunting to ensure their value, and hence their protection. "Lions in the Balance "takes us into the red-in-tooth-and-claw world of lion conservation. It is an incredibly candid, entertaining, and at points alarming look at what the future of the Serengeti lions entails, and how the politics of conservation require survival strategies far more creative and powerful than what animals (humans included) on the savannas must possess. A sequel to Mr. Packer's "Into Africa, "this diary based chronicle of the past decade draws readers along the dusty trails and into the spectacular sunsets of the Serengeti. Through his experiences we learn that female lions prefer their male manes dark and long, that lion attacks on humans most commonly occur during the full moon cycles, and that citizen science is shaping the world--Packer's initiative Snapshot Serengeti has helped engage globally, and locally, and has identified thousands of images of the Serengeti. The narrative moves from Arusha to the Serengeti to Washington DC, and with some temporal hopping, as often the stories are as rich and multilayered as the Serengeti ecosystem. And Mr. Packer demonstrates that he possesses himself a bit of cat, having needed nearly nine lives to persist in the ever dynamic and vexed world of conservation in Africa.
