The cause of animal like behaviour is also in the system of education.
Lucky are we, who had been taught the best way of living by good south Indian literatures.
The moral we learnt from 'Aram Seyya Virumbu', 'Aaruvadu Sinam',etc, from Avvaiyar's Aathichudi and more from Thirukkural, etc... had made us Good human beings than any other religious preachings. These morals are more valuable than what our children are getting from 'Ring-a-Ring- a-Roses', 'Johny-Johny- Yes-Papa' , etc....
The subject of Social studies in schools of neighbouring countries contain lot of false projections on India and other religions. Their people are never made aware of the truth. This kind of poisoning is done right from the childhood...
Entire world is yet to find a solution to this problem, causing more worries to the Globans..
The cause of global worries is 'Manidha Abhimaanam Seththukittu irukku or even say Seththu vittadhu (the quality of being human is dead. If not, some humans will not behave like animals.
'Aaruvadhu Sinam'...means 'One should try to control his/her anger'...This will help you not to behave like an animal.. There is a difference between animal behaviour and lack of agressiveness in professional way.
If you get a chance read the adhigaaram 'Veghulaamai' on not getting anger. How much disaster will be caused by not controlling one's anger. Crossing the limit in not controlling one's anger is equalent to one person being dead and Crossing the limit in controlling anger is equivalent to becoming Gnani. So we should decide where we want to be.
I agree that we are not taught enough on how to dominate others. I hope you saw the recent Vijay TV Talk show 'Neeya Naana' which discussed about Madhiya Manasa (Brain or Heart, which one should rule what)...Finally the judgement was given as one should use both.
If someone suggests to modify those Avai's Aathisudi and Thiruvalluvar's Thirukural according to modern life, I will disagree on that. because, let the base be as it is. They are the only good things we have and we should not loose them. I recommend one can purchase copies of Thirukkural to teach them to their children and gift them to friends. By knowing a part of them, it is early to say that we should change them. Let us try to understand it in full to find solution to the present day problems.
Let us not come to a conclusion that we should modernise these good literatures. In fact we should propogate these characteristics to younger generations, instead of changing them.
Learning to behave in professional way is different from animal like behaviour. Can any one recommend to change the contents of any other books on ways of life in relation to the changing culture?
