Do we listen or hear each other?
But by listening it means to pay attention to sound, while hearing means paying no or lesser attention to sound.
We hear sounds like clock, car engine, electric water motor etc , and we listen to our family members, friends and vehicle horn sound appears while driving.
Hence, the listening leads to action while, there is no or lesser short term action against hearing message.
A man can hear from 20 to 20,000 Hz as per normal capacity given by the nature. But man go beyond by using devises like phone, radio etc.
Now, we come to an interesting comparison. Elephant, has a natural capacity to hear from 16-12,000hz. Its a huge animal, having big ears as well.
But, can we imagine this animal can listen the distress or joy call of another elephant as far as 10 kilometer? Yes, this is fact.
Friends, why God provided this unique skills "to listen" or "to hear" a distress or joy call to elephant?
Seems a natural "face time " iphone technology gifted to this elephant. There could be many reasons, but one we can understand, that if, it is under distress, only another elephant can help out apart from the man.So, as a result it immediately react to help another elephant.
Man, can not listen like this animal but, can feel the distress and joy of another even beyond distance and reacts in a way like prayers, moral and another support.
Friends, here's the humble suggesstion for today , to focus on listening to human and other living species, and hearing to non living things, unless it needs to be listen.
