"Both firmly refuse and say that rank and shikar is a deadly combination and so will not work out.Four flying officer tapes versus two flying officer tapes is worse than a MOLOTOV COCKTAIL. In addition they reiterate that taking ANDROID on a Hunt would relegate them to POINTER / RETRIEVER DOG STATUS."
The word Bishnoi (also known as Vishnoi) is derived from the word VISHNU.
Bishnois are known as the conservationists to whom the preservation of animal and vegetable life is a religion and has been so from the early 15th century. Their spiritual mentor, Guru Jambheshwar was the Avatar of Lord Vishnu. He formulated twenty nine tenets . The tenets were tailored to conserve bio-diversity of the area but also ensured a healthy Eco-friendly social life for the community.
Eight tenets have been prescribed to preserve bio-diversity and encourage good animal husbandry. These include a ban on killing animals and felling green trees, and providing protection to all life forms.
Deer and peacocks roamed freely in the Bishnoi villages and were treated with great love and affection.
Numerous traditions and rules of social conduct have been combined with the original principles that guide Bishnoi lives. The most significant of which arose in the original Jhamba village soon after the death of the prophet.
