Birds born in a cage think flying is an illness



...and why not?

The evolution of human beings took so much time just on the basis of the received wisdom, that they were afraid of accepting CHANGE or acclimatisation. A mind preoccupied with fear from thunderstruck at night, howls of beasts nearby and the fearsome sight of the fire was too hard to be convinced to accept the change, and which is why evolution of human being (as i concur) was prolonged process.

This quote is reminiscent of that evolution.

Men were confined in their sense of fear, and therefore they were unable to acclimatize to the new surroundings posing as threat to their long-held superstitions. The cavemen never took the trouble of coming out of their hideouts at nights filled with spooky sounds of thunders/wolves/lions or wild animals.

And when they mustered up courage, tried to evolve with the things around, they learnt that many things or beliefs they were so blithely held up were counterfactual credo.

So, they busted many myths later through the course of their evolution by learning reality of their superstitions.

The moot point is - your mind caged by a thought not allowing you to think broadly or out of the box will make you a narrow-minded fellow who will judge anything as per your own assumed reality.

PM Modi on ramping up testing to cease corona infection spike in India

Image
So, our prime minister has accentuated the importance of increasing testing counts rather than being obsessed with vaccinations. According to his opinions, we fought bravely the first wave of coronavirus infection in 2020 at a time when even imagining about the covid vaccine seemed a far-fetched reality. Basically, his viewpoint was that States should not get worried about the rising cases of people being tested corona positive.  The prime focus must be testing, testing, and mounting up its numbers. I found that statement quite relieving, as it bears a semblance of a practical solution to the rising corona cases. Most importantly, it will rein in the rising number of FAKE news circulating all over digital platforms and media outlets about the virus. At least it is now clear that vaccination will be given to only ELIGIBLE people based on their age-marking by the government of India. The task of vaccinating the deserving citizens will be carried out with its own natural space but in the

My Hypothetical Rumination

I tend to believe that writing is an essential art for surviving in this world. It will give you success and growth in your chosen field of activity.  People who are not willing to embrace this art do not usually get a great deal of success in life. Some may argue that writing is no longer a job of people. The reason behind such thinking is their reference to robotic writing.  They think that in the future, writers will be replaced.  And such replacement will be done by none other than robot writers. to say otherwise, robots will replace human writers in days to come. What will happen at that moment is something that gives me a spooky feel.  Believe it or not but when I try to conjure up such a situation, I have sweet and cold beads all over my body. This is because I get spooky as to whether my craft will be replaced by robots.  What will happen to my livelihood if the thing I do for my survival will no longer be required? Who, at that time, will come to my rescue? There are many feel
