The document discusses the purpose and effects of animal poisons from multiple perspectives. It notes that fast-spreading poisons allow predators to subdue prey quickly before it escapes, and provide poisonous animals a defense against threats. However, the large size of some animals' bodies means poisons may shock but not kill them. The justice of nature is said to be the same for both victims and victors, but humans often derive subjective, partial, and prejudiced interpretations. The key message is about maintaining a positive, holistic vision to understand meanings rather than making wrong assumptions due to disconnected perspectives.

1. The poison of most of the poisonous animals spread fast in the body system of its
victim or prey. Certainly, the poison has to spread fast and only then the predator
can have its prey otherwise the prey might escape from the scene. It also has
another reason. Only when the poison spread fast, the poisonous animal can have
its defense from its threat. The question is, whether the nature has shown special
favour only towards the poisonous animals and has neglected the interest of the
victims? Certainly, nature is fair in its offering to all its creation unequivocally.
Remember nature also has favoured its victim/prey the same way. When the
poison spread fast, it quickly gets distributed throughout the body, gets neutralized,
metabolized if the body mass is great and thus the harmful actions quickly get
limited/diluted. In most cases, due to the above property of most poisons, the
victim survive although may suffer from some temporary shock or permanent
deformity.
The message is two fold. When a snake attacks lion or buffalo, it will be doing so
only for its self defense. No snake would ever attack a buffalo or lion for its food
need. When snake attack these animals for its self defense, the poison need to offer
only defense to the snake and need not kill its opponent. Due to the quick
distribution of poison, generally the large animals like lion or buffalo may not die
although they may suffer an immediate shock. For self defense, the faster
distribution of poison ensures benefit to both the snake and its opponent
simultaneously.
Whereas, when snake bite its prey, the quick spread of the poison immediately kill
the prey to become meal for the snake. Here the snake gains the quick meal from
the above property of the poison and at the same time, the prey also, may not
undergo prolonged suffering.
The justice system of nature is same for both the victim and the victor (winner).
What is good for you is good for me, as well. But unfortunately our meaning
derivations and interpretations are subjective, partial and prejudiced. We are not
relating our interpretations to the real and total.
The point of discussion is not about the science of poison. But understand the
management message hidden inside every creation. Develop positive vision to see
the right meaning otherwise what you presumed it to be wrong need not be wrong.
Our wrong meaning comes mostly due to our failure to connect to the absolute
context. When we become subjective and partial, we miss the wholeness and the
true meaning.
This inevitable management message every corporate people must learn.
