    The elephant looks sad. What do we gain by forcing this majestic beast to perform this silly tricks.

    Shameless acts against the principles of Buddhism. How many times the baby elephant was punished to train it to kneel and offer flowers? We need to move from the stone age.

    Does it did its own?

    This is a good example of delusion and cruelty to animals. I think these ceremonies should not be given publicity.

    Sad for the elephant, magic for the people around, Job for the elephant trainer
