More than 300,000 animals were killed during a two-day religious festival in Nepal. This was to honor Gadhimai, the goddess of power, to bring worshippers good luck.
When I saw the pictures of hundred of thousands of buffalos being slaughtered, I felt the land was cold and flooded with blood. In my mind, it was just like a red sea.
I can see how stale the air was with dead buffalos flooded everywhere. The energies of fear drowned the land of Bariyarpur. The energy tells me that nothing is free on earth and it remains. Lives had been taken but… not for free. No man has ever escaped the law of nature or the law of karma. Slaughtering of the buffalos by the men holding axes was beyond cruelty. I can feel the fear of the buffalos, the lives of the innocent. I was utterly upset with humans and my heart went wholly to the animals that were sacrificed for humans’ foolishness!
Today, a magnitude of 7.8 earthquake hit Katmandu, Nepal. The latest news says that death poll could reach 10,000. No, I am not laughing. Neither am I cursing the Nepalese. And if you ask me if I feel sad about what is happening in Nepal right now, my answer is NO. I don’t hate or dislike human. My feelings for humans is neutral.
To curse the butcher who slaughtered the animals mercilessly and the people who participated in the festival as well as the worshippers, I would rather keep them alive and pray for them to be enlightened immediately.
Will more than 600,000 animals be slaughtered during the next Gadhimai festival since Gadhimai, the goddess of power, did not bring good luck to Nepal after the sacrifices?
Gadhimai, the goddess of power, definitely did not trigger the earthquake. The humans did!
