Innocent Family

On our way down from a high range area  from Sri Lanka, where we had gone to enquire into an allegation with regard to some election procedures, we met this happy family-- a father, mother and a pea-ling. This is one of the several places I found animals and birds live without any fear among the native people in this small country. When we become more civilised we become more  terrific killers and learn to rain destruction on nature and all its inhabitants. We can find several attempts all over the world to make the aboriginal people, more "civilised". What is the nature of that civilisation that we are trying to  impose upon those innocent communities? instead of trying to teach them, let us try to learn from them-- learn the golden art of living.
