The Dog's Mentality
The dog. Man's best friend.
This is fine for a dog. After all he's a dog. What can you expect?
But we have all heard the phrase; It's a dog eat dog world. Such a world is not a fit place for a gentleman (or a lady.) How can there ever be peace in such a world?
It is not by making laws and rules. The problem is the consciousness. Am I no different from the dog? The dog eats. I eat. the dog sleeps I sleep. The has sex I have sex. The dog defends itself. I defend myself. So what is the difference? I am more intelligent? I can make sophisticated devices.. cars, washing machines, light bulbs, smart phones... deadly weapons, medicines, elaborate structures to live in...
But if after all the busy endeavor my consciousness is like the dog... Eat. sleep or pee.. then really where is the difference even with all my "superior intelligence?"
The dog has intelligence how to solve problems. One dog was lying down under a car to get some shade. But the oil from the engine was leaking and dripping on his head. He used his intelligence to move to the back of the car where there was no oil. But what did he solve? He was still a dog under a car.
The difference between a human being and a dog is that the human being can ask "Who am I" Where did I come from?" Why is there suffering?" "What is the goal of life?"
As soon as the human being begins to ask these kinds of questions the answers start to come.
Are we the same as dogs?
Apart from that, the form and way of life of humans is different from that of dogs
I don't know how reason can overcome desire Or direct it to where it needs to be
Anjing tidak pernah berbuat suatu hal yang tercela mungkin tidak ada aturan untuk nya
Sedangkan manusia banyak aturan dalam beretika dan norma dalam kehidupan
Apakah itu bisa suatu alasan untuk mengatakan kita tidak sama dengan anjing
Apakah ini refleksi tentang norma dan perbandingan nya untuk dalam kehidupan?
Menurut saya, anjing mengikuti aturan, diperintah, ditendang, dilatih, dan juga memiliki naluri untuk mengendalikannya.
Manusia tidak memiliki kecerdasan yang sama dan banyak yang tidak akan pernah bertanya: mengapa saya ada di sini, apa tujuan hidup saya. Hal itu hanya membuat tertekan dan hidup menjadi lebih mudah tanpa pertanyaan-pertanyaan yang tidak perlu. Hanya bing saja sudah cukup baik.
There is great merit in just "being in the present moment." The dog is innocent. The human "can choose" not to follow rules, even natural or instinctual ones thereby causing great disturbances to themselves and others. Thank you for your input.
You are welcome!

Good point. How can reason overcome desire? Human life is one of duty and responsibility. Man made laws are there for sure. They can change as time and place dictate. There are other laws and rules that do not change. What are those? The human being needs to ask. Thank you for the discussion.
Thank you, friend!

Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.
I can't make these thingd so I guess I'm a dog then.
Intelligence and intelligence is not the same and we do not share the same level of IQ SI,awareness nor education.
The "I" here was used hypnotically (imagined for purposes of example). Certainly there is range of abilities and parts to play in human society.
I know, no worries I like to shake up a bit in the hope people think.
Hmmm. This is a sign of good intelligence. Ha Ha
