"Man" A Wild Beast

Complex Of Thinking

Preface
It may be unusual to say that the most perfect theories and concepts of the world are complex ones. Man himself is a complex being that has nothing to do with simplicity. Gratification acquired by struggle is just like a wild goose chase.

In this book, I would like to follow only but myself. I have neglected all of the past and passed theories, whatever revolutions they might have caused. In fact, the ground and the ultimate motive behind all such events is the human mind, whereof the constructions of imaginary buildings are materialized. Human mind is the very basic and the ultimate institution that brings about the change in social living. It causes both the construction and the destruction of earthly beings especially man.

I elaborate my views, as I said, in the light of my own view, regardless whether they challenge the views of Aristotle, Freud, or Buddha. It is such a vast topic that from the very beginning to now, ma n is in search of it i. e. search of man himself. All of the philosophers have given their hypotheses, and it is upto us whether we consider them upto date or out-dated.

I am just changing the title a little bit, however, the substance is the same one. I am also in the search of man with all of its human characteristics. My purpose of using these valueless and meaningless words is to detach or separate the human and the animal characteristics, signs, symptoms, behaviors and many more things. I may not be acceptable for many of the people but this is no matter. I am supposedly working for the origin of the human race to which, I myself belong too. I must not be apologetic in my comments about human race rather I would proclaim openly what man is in my eyes.

The personality of man is not my concern only, but I am prone to go after all of the institutions, social, scientific or commercial to check their validity in our life.

Since man is the subject, so it se ems very applaudable to begin with man himself to be the first topic in contents.

 Man or Human Being

Man is a kind of animals in its all of characteristics. The term social-animal for mans society seems incorrect since the animals also have a type of social living though on a little level. Surly, man can be called a rational animal but such a sense the animals also possess in terms of examining the situation, avoiding the danger, and recognizing the partner or children.

Thus, the question still is un-improved that what a man is or is like? But the title I would like to paste on man is surly an animal but by calling him unnatural animal.

Selfishness is a characteristic of animals in all of ways. Always, they care for themselves and subdue the others. This is called the power of nature. This is the very nature, which forces them to attack others, kill them and eat them. They have no passion of sympathy, love, compassion or kindness except for t hemselves. So, the nature forces them to obey it in a natural environment. In such a way, they are quite natural animals. What is with man on the other hand? Man is living an unnatural life that is not set for him by nature.

If we observe man through the process of evolution, we then can be able to admit the fact that man is after all an animal in its seeds. This is such a species that became supreme since man could get the power of thinking.

How was this thinking started? When was it started? Who was the earliest of the evolved man from pre-man species like apes? Was his life an animal life or he was better in his living?

These are quite complicated questions, which might never be given with answers. I will try to throw light upon them to my extent of perception. But the question of mans nature still lingers.

If on the other hand, we go through the process of Special Creation; well clearly see man being a violator of all divine laws. By the admissio n of this theory, one thing becomes clear that man was destined to be a superior creature and he is not an evolved form of animals. Once again by passing the basic question, we try to peep into the religious scriptures. Bible, Vedas, Granth, Avesta, and many other scriptures proclaim the fact of special creation. Quran (Holy book of Muslims) present both of the facts i. e. Evolution and Special Creation.

In the process of evolution, Quran has made us count 5 steps and stages.

1. Creation from water. (Protozoa or single-celled animal)

2. Creation from mud. (Mixture of water and clay)

3. Creation from stenched mud and clay. (When it came out of water)

4. Special creation. (When the multi-celled animal was transformed into man)

5. Creation from essence (embryo) of human jell-water.

So, whatever the process might have been, this fact what Quran narrates seems more influential. Anyway, the struggle for the creation of man emphasizes that man was especially created. In this way, man got some superiority over other creatures.

Thus, when it is proved that man is the model creature of the universe, it must have been ideal in all of its aspects of life. My question is to you, is it so? I know prematurely the answer i. e. No.

Let us compare now the man and animals, the superior and the inferior, the wise and the unwise, the civilized and the beast.

Animals kill others for their food, but man kills others for his greed. Thus, morally, animals have an edge over man. They dont kill others when they are satiated, but man even goes on killing despite having no need of it. Animals never kill their own race, but man doesnt hesitate doing so. Man has created such dangerous weapons that it seems man is wishful for the removal of human beings from earth.

Animals have never been given the concepts of accountability before God, so they have no fear of their doings. But man, on other hand, clearly sees the threat, but he doesnt even bother for that. Billions of words have been created for the moral teaching of man. Yet he kicks them whole off within a minute and turns into its unnatural nature. Thus, mans ultimate nature is wild one.

Man can only survive if he moves back to the Stone Age. To remove all of the tensions prevailing humanity, we need man be a hunter again. If not hunter, then maximum he should be an agricultural man, whose chief concern is his crops, who relies upon rivers, who prays to God for a good crop, who keeps interaction with other members of society, and who has enough time to share his moments with others of his vicinity.

Man must never be given the greed of wealth, nor should he be facilitated like today.

As it is famous, An idles brain is devils workshop. When man turns to be prosperous, selfishness strikes his mind automatically and he draws big lines between him and other lower part of society. This idleness (caused by prospe rity) forces him to create disturbance in the life of poor for his timely pleasure and activity. In fact, in this way, the lower class becomes a toy in the hand of high-gentry.

I plead to the thinkers of this generation to put forward a solution of this problem or accept my view to cleanse the society from brutality, selfishness, exploitation, deception, assassination, and so on. I hope, you agreed a bit with me, and would have enjoyed. Please keep intact since I will write more Articles on similar problematic issues.
