She deserved so much better and thank you for honoring her resilient spirit. Indu, I pray you are with your family of origin now in the green jungle that was your birthright. Thank you Deena for your work. <3

Dearest Deena: Tears flow down my face as I write my heartfelt gratitude for your deeply spiritual commemoration of Indu's life (despite being tragic). What humans do to these supremely intelligent and highly social animals is beyond comprehension. Sometimes, cruelty can be blamed on ignorance, but often times it's a result of willful ignorance.

Human hearts may have become so encrusted by multiple layers of cultural memes that feeling the suffering of other beings seem to have become difficult, if not impossible. How do we peel those layers, when selfish desires and status quo have taken over our culture? I am lost for words...

But your profound words of wisdom are healing. One heart at a time, I hope we can heal humanity, so that we can reconnect with our innate love and compassion that tend to get suppressed by the cacophony of cultural memes playing out on social media. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your tribute to Indu.

May her memory be a blessing, and her precious soul rest in peace beyond the hills, valleys and mountains...

With Love and Admiration!

Sangita
