Its hard to be a Human
Kaka Balli Punjabi Podcast | Humans vs Animals | Knowledge, Consciousness & Life Filters In this mind-bending episode of the Kaka Balli Punjabi Podcast, we take a deep dive into the most fundamental question of all: what really separates humans from animals? ๐ง ๐บ We all like to think humans are the smartest species on Earth, but is knowledge truly a blessingโor a hidden curse? In this episode, we explore how knowledge has shaped human misery throughout history and mythology. From the story of Adam and Eve ๐, to Buddhaโs enlightenment, the Epic of Gilgamesh, and Odin sacrificing his eye for wisdom, every tale shows that the pursuit of knowledge often comes at the cost of peace, happiness, and simplicity. We also talk about awareness and timeโhow the human ability to reflect on the past brings regret and depression, while imagining the future creates anxiety and fear. Unlike animals, who live mostly in the moment, humans are trapped in a mental labyrinth of memories, predictions, and โwhat ifs.โ From this awareness comes stories, rules, and ideas. Religion, politics, money, law, bordersโthese are all constructs we invented to make sense of life. But the irony? Humans fight endlessly over ideas that donโt exist outside our minds. We then dig into a big question: Does consciousness and knowledge make us happyโor sad? Can awareness ever be freeing, or is it the root of most suffering? Finally, we explore the many filters that shape our perception of reality: Biology and genetics ๐งฌ Childhood and parenting ๐ถ Cultural norms and societies ๐ Relationships and friendships ๐ค Technology, social media, and constant comparison ๐ฑ Escaping these filters is incredibly hardโbut understanding them is the first step toward true awareness. This episode is for anyone who wants to understand why humans suffer so much despite intelligence, why knowledge can feel like a burden, and how our lives are subtly shaped by forces we barely notice. Itโs a deep dive into philosophy, psychology, history, and mythology, all in simple Punjabi for curious minds. #KakaBalliPodcast #HumansVsAnimals #PhilosophyPodcast #PunjabiPodcast #MindBlowingStories #Consciousness #KnowledgeVsHappiness #HumanMind #LifeFilters #DeepThoughts #PsychologyPodcast #SelfAwareness #AncientWisdom #Buddha #Gilgamesh #Odin #AdamAndEve #TrendingPodcast #ViralPodcast #ThoughtProvoking
