I want to walk a few blogs on the support I have been given through
living and working with animals and nature since I started
process. Before walking
process, I did live with animals, but did not see animals in the way I see them
in this moment, and that is I see all animals and all that live on this planet
equal in all ways as myself here as a human being from the great to the small.
In my past, I thought animals were less intelligent then humans, they were
subordinate, and did not have much going on cause they couldn’t communicate
with each other and with me (this so I thought, please hear
this series on eqafe as I have gained a whole new insight and understanding to animals and
nature and who they are as physical beings on this earth.). As a kid they had
there place in the home, they were our pets, I saw them as a toy, a point of
play and fun, and when occasionally pushed them or hitting them or was rough
with them, I did not ever consider at all that they are aware and are feeling
physically everything I am doing same as how I would feel it.
I always had a deep love for animals though in the sense
that I loved being around my dogs, I felt comfort and enthralled by their
expressions of play and looks of beauty in the seemingly normal moments of
there every day life. I really was moved when my dog would come over to me and
put his head on me when I was crying after a fight with my sister or a fight
with my parents, and he would just give me comfort unconditionally even with
all the rough and crazy things we would do with him, like dress him up in
clothes or spread peanut butter all over his coat (this as a kid). I am
extremely grateful for this process at desteni being opened up to me as it was
where I was introduced to the actual reality of the real sameness and equality
that exist not only between my dog and myself, but all the life that is on this
planet, the animals, the insects, the plants, the sky, the ocean, the trees,
the humans, the planet itself, it all is part of what is here and we all exist
here together, that was empowering because I had never conceived of such an
intimate way of how in fact we are all in this together, we all are brothers
and sisters here in the family that is life on earth and our survival depends
on the living of this simple truth if we only live it into reality.
Once I started walking process, man, I really had an
appreciation for everything, I would talk to trees on walks, I would interact
with insects when I had a moment in my day and they had settled somewhere where
to interact with, I took care of my plants and expressed within myself towards them
the appreciation that I had for it as it grew new leaves each and every few
months or so as I gave it water to live. I felt at ease and at home within the
paths in the woods I would run and it was summer and everything was in full
bloom like running through the jungle, I would take deep breaths and run fast
and jump on rocks and jump over big fallen trees, and was in awe at the
diversity of life that exist in just a simple scan of my eyes. It was so
beautiful, I could not think or imagine anything better then this, living in
the heart of what is real as nature, so I enjoyed all of what nature had to
offer. This because of the understanding that we are all one and we are
supporting each other to exist, nature has taught me so much and we can learn
so much of how to live for real and co exist with all the beings on this planet,
if we but let go of our egos, our desires, our needs and wants, our excess for
more and new, and live simply so all can simply live. We are able to co-exist
and create balance in this world and existence, but I have realized it starts
within the relationship within myself and my own living, and nature as the
animals especially can mirror self quite starkly.
Nature is not all beautiful and serene as they also have to
survive and the habitats in which they live have been extremely compromised by
humans desire for resources and there extreme need for survival through the
creation of excessive consumption we have lived and made ‘normal’, but it is
certainly not normal if you see nature as the testament of what life on earth
is suppose to exist as. The black rhino for instance, I just read in south
Africa is just about extinct and that is due to the fact that a few countries
in Asia see it as a miracle cure for hangovers and the believe it can cure
cancer, when the rhino horn is in fact made of the same organic material as the
human fingernail and has no medicinal value whatsoever. So the solution for
this is for one to get out of these beliefs that are not realistic and do not
hold any benefit to doing what is best for all on earth, and so stop the death
of innocent beings on this planet that have the same right to life as anyone
else, and come to a change where our education system and money system is changed
to support the expansion and growth of life into a value that is equal within
all.
There is ways you can learn more and support a solution that
embodies these set of principles of life being equally valued within all and it
has been proposed within the living income guarantee proposal, where life will
be invested within the value of each one’s right to exist and so given the
support that is necessary to exist within a decent and dignified way. Why?
Because it’s possible and we can by changing our way of living to support life
rather then destroy it. This proposal is also introducing change for the start
of the reform of our current destructive systems to be of life support systems
like I mentioned above from education to grow to all our necessary systems that
make life on this planet possible, but the most important value I have learned
is this value that life is equal within all no matter what it looks like, it
has an awareness unto itself and exist unto itself, and so by birth and virtue
of it’s existence should have the right to exist in freedom.
I was going to write about my experience with the horses to start when I lived on a farm in south africa and also with my dog and some
other cool animals I have and am living with cause I read a cool series by
GianRobberts on the
Death of His Horse Titan and found some really cool insights
and support he shared with walking with a horse for many years as he did until
he died late last year. He explained his experience of finding the physical as
breath through walking with a another physical being such as a horse
demonstrates quite distinctly, and the gifts and the struggles he faced while
doing this. I also wanted to share some feedback as well about working with a
horse specifically because I also gained much insight and realizations about
myself in relation to my daily interaction with the horses those five months I
stayed there, but I will leave that for tomorrow night.
