The elephant captured in Chhattisgarh was a victim, not just of an over-eager, insensitive agency that was ironically set up for the specific purpose of protecting endangered pachyderms. The poor animal was first forced to leave the forests of neighbouring states frightened by miners and rendered homeless by human-induced forest degradation. And then, when it tried to survive, looking for food, it was chased, caught, and made to die a slow death. Whatever happened to our tradition of respecting all life forms?

Silence is the womb of the tangible world. In the Christian Biblical version of Creation, God 'spoke' and the world came into being. With the pronouncing of the Word, speech became primary, but silence remained primordial.

The heart of Christian meditation is to return to this primordial state of being. It is a journey from words into the creative word of God; this Word is enveloped by silence. By its very nature, silence is unexploitable, often purposeless and for that reason very frightening.

Death perhaps is the only certainty in this world. Yet, the fear of death stalks most people. Literature - western and Indian - regards the fear of death as an intriguing and ubiquitous part of human life. We know we are mortals, yet we are afraid of the inevitable. We know we will die one day; yet we continue to behave as though we believe we are going to live forever.

In Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, Caesar is surprised to find that people are frightened of death, which is after all an end that comes when it will. A similar spirit pervades the renowned dialogue between the Yaksha and Yudhishthira in the Mahabharata.

Death is an enigma. It is impossible to define life without death. Up to its very last link, life is a bio-chemical chain reaction. Once life is launched, like a bullet it must reach its final destination, which is death.

Death is less frightening, however, when we concede that life attains maximum fullness only when it is guided by an ideal, by something for which we are willing to die if necessary. Whatever incites us to die also incites us to live with greater intensity.

Love has the special quality of attracting abundance of love in return. Ahimsa means the largest love, the greatest charity. As a follower of ahimsa, I must love my enemy. I must apply the same rules to the wrongdoer who is my enemy or a stranger to me, as I would to my wrongdoing father or son.

This active necessarily includes truth and fearlessness. As man cannot deceive loved ones, he does not fear or frighten them. Gift of life is the greatest of all gifts; a man who gives it disarms all hostility. He has paved the way for an honourable understanding.

In ancient Greek mythology, the Empusa (or Empousa) was a female supernatural monster or demoness. Hecate sent Empusa to harass travelers. It scared to death or ate anybody that travelled along the paths or roads it inhabited. The empusae are sometimes described as having donkey-like features. More recent Greek tales describe the creature as a merely frightening shapeshifter, but blame it for injuring sheep. The Empusae are similar to the lilim, and the legend of the former may be derived from that of the latter. ...

Breath-holding spells, a form of syncope, are alarming-appearing but benign phenomena seen in early childhood. A child may hold his breath or stop breathing, become cyanotic, pass out, and become limp. The eyes may roll up and a few convulsive movements may or may not be seen. To the parent or other frightened observer the child appears dead. After a few moments, the child will begin breathing again, usually with an inspiratory gasp; shortly thereafter the child regains consciousness and begins to behave normally. The spells are often provoked by strong emotion. This diagnosis is occasionally confuse ...

The weasel war dance is a behavior of extremely excited ferrets. The war dance usually follows play or the successful capture of a toy or a stolen object. It consists of a frenzied series of sideways hops, often accompanied by an arched back, dooking or hissing noises, or a frizzy tail. Although the weasel war dance may make a ferret appear frightened or angry, they are often just excited and are usually harmless to humans. The concept of weasel war dance was presented to the world by (among others) Scott Adams in the Dilbert strips: as far as allegedly performed by humans or fictional ...

Yūrei (幽霊) are Japanese ghosts. Like their Western counterparts, they are thought to be spirits kept from a peaceful afterlife due to some wrong caused to them in life, a lack of a proper burial, or because they committed suicide. They typically appear in the hours between midnight and sunrise, floating about to frighten and torment those who wronged them in life, but otherwise causing no harm. Some may argue that Hanzo Hasashi (aka Scorpion from the Mortal Kombat series) plays homage to this type of ghost probably due to the fact he was violently murdered and on top of ...
