SUPERNATURAL VISION OF DOGS

India, a very rich country in its beliefs, rituals and culture, etc., however the peoples out there treats many things as OMENs / BAD SIGNS, since it has been written in their ancient scriptures. Omens due to crying of animals are very usual as dogs and cats are easily seen in any village or city.

Few common Omens are:-

a.) Crying & Crossing by dog or cat

b.) Falling of Lizard on someone

c.) Glitter look of Crow

d.) Sneezing as Omen etc.

These superstitions are blindly followed by the civilians of India but seems to be real due to their experiences they gained and learnt throughout their life.

My personal experience:

It happened during the month of January this year (Jan-2014), when on an uncertain night, 3-4 dogs started growling at around 10:00 PM and barked continuously till morning 03:00 AM. I was scared due to the unexpected behavior of them and also due to the superstitions we follow. I prayed to God for everything to be all right, but it was not so.

At 06:30 AM, I received one of my friend’s call stating that, one of or mutual friend’s mother expired last night at around 12:30 AM. I was shocked to hear that as I met the Aunt the same day she died and she was normal & healthy.

My belief on Omen increases the very next day (the day she cremated), as on the next night, again the dogs barked repeatedly till 03:00 AM. I was unable to understand, what was happening or what was wrong, why these stray dogs behaves like an Omen.

I was searching for the answers regarding the behavior of the dogs and later on came to know that, Dogs have the powers to sense the unexpected, supernatural or say unnatural things which are invisible by a human eye.

My thinking came to finish by the following 2 possible reasons for Dog's silly behaviour:-

Night 1 (when my friend’s mother died) - As per Hindu Myths, the messenger of God (Yamraj), who pulls the soul from the corpse, might be seen by the dogs, as most of the animals have supernatural powers.

Night 2 (after her cremation) - Hindu Mythology also states that, the Soul / Spirit revolves around or nearby the place till next 24 hours after its extraction from the body. This may can also be the reason that the dog barked again the very next day after her death.
