Fight or Flight! You know it! Right? Else read here.... (Please do watch the video there). The most primitive survival mechanism of nature running along the Story of Life. It enabled the survival of species, in particular of the animals for billions of years.
Of course we, human beings appeared in the last running page of the big story unraveled so far. Not more than one lac year ago. And you would argue; even those were just primitive savages.
You will mostly agree that man in general became modern in the second millennium (AD 1000+) and became sophisticated towards the end of the second millennium. Throughout history we had been keep on boasting so much about our own creations of great sophistication!
Stop! Look down for a moment; down your chin. Give an ear to that beat!
The beat of the heart inside your chest and in each of one of us (us an!mals). It has been beating non-stop, since the early times of the Story of Life; 2 to 3 billion times during each of our life-span. It has been supplying nourishments with superb precision; through a circulatory system one lac km long for us humans!! All this super packed into a small space of 0.1 cubic metre; the human body!!! Anybody with little knowledge of human physiology will argue; this is not even .1% of the Story called Human Body. Almost all of us are such least enthusiastic about it, considering it so unsophisticated and dull! This taken for granted beat has been keeping the life up-beat from time unknown!
The beauty of nature’s complexity is that nobody needs to be bothered about it, unless or until it is tampered heavily. The dull side of our own creations of sophistication is that it started tampering the nature’s order like never before. What has been leveraging this is our own distorted exercise of the Fight or Flight mechanism. It's application has been so flawed that it has been rampaging the beauty within us and the beauty of things all around extensively.
Nature's order is to conserve the energy to the max. Thus Flyt is the much preferred mode than Fight . But by incessant learning about a distorted ego; about a unique place for man, even more unique place for self, we have taken up Fight as the prime mode, almost as the only available option. Let’s drop out of these maddening fights. Let’s choose Flyt as our prime nature.
