What we are witnessing today is nothing but "SWAN VRITTI(Dog-like Attitude)" as described by our great saints. This attitude seems to be prevalent amongst all human beings - the highest level found in politicians, followed by electronic media who go on using it for increasing their ratings and minting money.They go on barking at each other. They seldom bite.They have one thing in common - they all belong to the same species.It is said that human life is most precious. (Bare bhag manush tan pawa - by Goswami Tulsidas)Yet many people derive pleasure and pride in behaving like dogs. Let's aviod them, if we cannot check them (because convicing dogs may at times be fatal).Let's pray - May the Almighty give them some sense. The least we can do is to desist from the TV Channels which air their barkings and counter-barkings or switch-off our TV sets, in case no recourse is left.
