Amazing Thailand Tigers - Even animal Instinct can be tamed





The following story is Extraordinary as shown in the pictures. Don't your think so?

The tiger temple in Thailand is a place where an extraordinary bond between man and the world's biggest cats has been formed.


The tigers here are so peaceful,..its almost as if they have accepted Buddhism as their religion. In fact, they even sit for the meditating
sessions with the monks and kneel down in front of them as if they are the gurus. The tigers are so docile that the monks have to sometimes train them to fight otherwise they would lose all their power of self protection.

The link started in 1999 when a sick baby tiger, orphaned after poachers shot its mother, was brought to the monks. Within a few years several other tiger cubs similarly orphaned by poachers had arrived. The most amazing thing is non of the cubs turned out ferocious on growing up. The monks believer that these tigers are none other than the former Buddhist disciples who have taken rebirth in the same place.

We all thought that animal has its instinct, the animal instinct. More so for the ferocious tiger, its instinct is to kill.

But as the picture shows, even the tiger instinct can be replaced with the human instinct, when nurture correctly and at an early stage.

Looking at the world today, all these senseless killings happening around the globe. More recently, the shocking Mumbai terrorists senseless killings of so many innocents. What has gone into the mind of such people? I am not sure how the minds of such grown-ups can be changed. But certainly, we can start from the young. Only if the people around the world starts nurturing true compassions and true love for the sanctity of life and world peace, we will start seeing the peaceful nature that even the ferocious tigers can become.

Thanks for the info. It's a pity what people will do to without regards to conscience. I still hold the belief that if the government of every country starts nurturing people from young to embrace good values in life, we'll have a much better world.
