Have you ever watched ants carrying their booty/food? Have you noticed that they do not stop on the way to eat them, nor do they carry them to hidden or unknown locations to be eaten alone, by a few, or just only with their family members?
No. They take the food to the community for the consumption by all. They can hardly imagine their survival without the community.
Interestingly, among them, there is no discrimination in the sharing because they see themselves as one, yet we call them lower beings.
Meanwhile, we, who are the higher beings, are very selfish, divided, and envious of ourselves. Religion divides us. Politics divides us. Education divides us. Wealth divides us. Dialect divides us.
Let’s learn from the ants, our elder brethren who have been there for at least 140 million years. Let’s learn from the nature around us.
No one is as educated as the man or woman who pays attention to nature. No one is as peaceful as the man who is a pupil of nature. No society is as progressive as a people who learn from nature.
Interestingly, nature charges no school fees. May be that is why we do not pay attention during its lectures.
