Hills like
white elephants is a story about a conversation between a men and a girl who is
about to have an abortion. Everything it´s explained in an implicit way or
symbolism.
At the beginning it´s hard to get the main idea but once you get it it´s
very interesting.
The video
showed the story of Sidharta. A man who
had everything but when he discovered human pain and suffer, he left it. Also, it showed different perceptions and
explanations about Buddhism. It was boring but it clarified some concepts. It made
me understood the short story a bit more.
At the
exhibit we saw the most important elements and some history of Indian culture
and religions. It showed deities, demons and natural beings. Their meanings and
importance were explained. It was impressive to see how different our religions
and believes are. The sculptures were gorgeous and kind of weird.
Buddhists
doesn´t approve abortion even though on their countries this is a common practice.
The main concern of having an abortion is karma. Abortion is mainly used as a
birth control method. It is hard thinking that if they had better methods this
dangerous practice would not be that common.
