BODHAYANTI PARASPARAM
You know what is correct. But then you will suppress it. The reason for the suppression is the inertia of matter. Animals also have certain types of intelligence. Most of you know the story of the crow which has stolen the necklace of queen and threw it into the anthill of the snake and somebody had to come and destroy the particular anthill and then kill the serpent also to rescue that.
