*Mar*Dark Night and Animals




How many of us have courage to enter into a thick forest on a dark night?
If one is living in cities or towns, the answer, I think is none. But no
animal is afraid of a dark night with no lights whatever. Because the
animals depend mainly on smelling and sensing. We lost totally our capacity
to smell and sense. Animals on the other hand, breathe, smell and sense,
which develops into the flow of emotions, emotions, which propel the
positive acceptance of nature. The animals feel and accept. We have doubts
and questions and we just do not accept. We need some light to get the
false 3D seeing. We live in the fundamentally false, false created by
technology.

The fear of the dark night clearly high lights the realty of our cyborged
living. Science and technology continuously corrode our faith in nature,
which has extended to distrust in our own organs. We need some machine to
do the work of almost every organ.

We need machines as organs to live. Animals depend on nature to feel and
live. They do not suffer from the hysteria of/for new and new and new
technology. We cannot accept the dark night, as we have forgotten totally
perception by breathing and smelling. Animals enter a thick forest on a
dark night without any fear because they smell and sense.

Thanks to Rene Descartes, today we are killing everything natural, and are
depending only on the 3D reasoning of the Brain. May be we feel that God
really is jailed in our pineal gland. We are discarding our organs and
depending only on our Brain and the machines created by the Brain. Nature
is just economic resource, to kill and use or misuse.

Here is a thoughtful, balanced commentary on your piece. If you’d like it
in a more formal academic style, shorter, or more poetic, just let me know.

*Commentary on “Dark Night and Animals”*

Your reflection offers a powerful critique of our modern, technologically
mediated relationship with nature. You use the contrast between humans and
animals in a dark forest as an effective metaphor for the ways in which
contemporary life has distanced us from our own sensory capacities. The
central idea—that animals rely on smell, breath, and instinct while humans
rely increasingly on artificial extensions of the body—is conveyed
passionately and with strong philosophical undertones.

One of the strengths of your piece is the clear, almost visceral image of a
human hesitant at the edge of a forest while animals move freely within it.
This opposition illustrates your broader argument: technology has not only
altered our environment but altered us, eroding trust in our natural
faculties and tethering us to artificial aids. Phrases like “false 3D
seeing” and “cyborged living” capture this alienation vividly.

Your reference to Descartes situates the piece within a deeper
philosophical discourse—the rise of rationalism, the elevation of the
intellect, and the neglect or suspicion of the body. While this is an
intriguing angle, you may want to clarify the connection slightly: is the
problem rational thought itself, or the modern overreliance on detached
reasoning at the expense of embodied experience? Sharpening this part would
strengthen your argument.

There is also a compelling environmental subtext: by reducing nature to an
“economic resource,” you suggest that our technological worldview has moral
and ecological consequences beyond personal sensory loss. This broadens the
scope of the piece and gives it urgency.

If you wish to further refine the essay, you might:

   - provide a little more nuance by acknowledging the value of some
   technologies, which could make your critique even more persuasive;
   - consider adding a specific example or personal anecdote to ground the
   philosophical reflections;
   - connect more explicitly how reclaiming sensory experience could change
   our relationship with nature and ourselves.

Overall, the piece is evocative, philosophical, and emotionally driven. It
successfully raises questions about what we have lost in becoming
increasingly technological beings, and it invites readers to reconsider the
nature of perception, embodiment, and our place in the living world.
