Kryon Q&A

Question: Dear Kryon: I live in Spain. I am sorry if I will ask you a question you might have already answered, but the translations of your books are very slow and I might not have gathered all information you have already given. I am quite concerned about abandoned animals. It seems that many people buy animals for their children and as soon as they grow, they set them out somewhere. Recently I had the occasion to see a small kitten in the middle of the street. I did not immediately react, since I could have stopped and taken it, without getting out of the car. So, I went on and at the first occasion I could turn, I went back to see if I could take the kitten, but it was to late, somebody had already killed it. This happened some month ago, but I still feel very sorry for that kitten. I just would like to know, what kind of entity are these animals and how does this fit in our world. Are these entities which choose this kind of life, like we do choose our kind of Human life? I see so many abandoned animals and every time I see one, my heart aches... I would like to know more about them.

Answer: Dear one, indeed the answer has been given, but let us give it again so you all understand. Animals are here on earth for three (3) reasons.

(1) The balance of biological life. . . the circle of energy that is needed for you to exist in what you call "nature."

(2) To be harvested. Yes, it's true. Many exist for your sustenance, and this is appropriate. It is a harmony between Human and animal, and always has. Remember the buffalo that willingly came into the indigenous tribes to be sacrificed when called? These are stories that you should examine again. The inappropriateness of today's culture is how these precious creatures are treated. Did you know that if there was an honoring ceremony at their death, they would nourish you better? Did you know that there is ceremony that could benefit all of humanity in this way. Perhaps it's time you saw it.

(3) To be loved and to love. For many cultures, animals serve as surrogate children, loved and taken care of. It gives Humans a chance to show compassion when they need it, and to have unconditional love when they need it. This is extremely important to many, and provides balance and centering for many.

Do animals know all this? At a basic level, they do. Not in the way you "know," but in a cellular awareness they understand that they are here in service to planet earth. If you honor them in all three instances, then balance will be the result. Your feelings about their treatment is important. Temper your reactions with the spiritual logic of their appropriateness and their service to humanity. Honor them in all three cases.

Regions next for bird ban: Minister

Adisti Sukma Sawitri, The Jakarta Post, Jakarta

The central government is set to extend a ban on backyard birds in the capital to eight other provinces in an attempt to stem the latest bird flu outbreak, Health Minister Siti Fadilah Supari said Thursday.

Jakarta Governor Sutiyoso told city residents Wednesday their backyard fowls would be confiscated and destroyed if they failed to get rid of the birds by the end of the month.

The move follows the deaths of four people from the virus since the start of the year, taking the number of confirmed human deaths in the country to 61, the highest in the world. The four victims came from Jakarta and Tangerang.

Reuters quoted Siti as saying the ban would be extended to eight other provinces that had reported human infections of the H5N1 virus.

"There must be special zones for poultry away from residential areas," she said, adding the measure would eventually be enforced in all the country's 33 provinces.

Siti said the Home Ministry had also issued a circular urging local authorities in the nine affected provinces to increase their monitoring of poultry traffic.

Chickens are common in most residential areas of Jakarta, and roam freely just a couple of minutes' walk from the capital's central business district. Elsewhere in the country, it is common to see poultry workers handling dead birds, mucus dripping from their beaks, with bare hands.

However, small-scale poultry breeders and bird lovers have railed against the planned measure along with the Bekasi, Pandeglang and Banten administrations.

The head of the National Commission for Bird Flu Control and Pandemic Preparedness, Bayu Krisnamurthi, told The Jakarta Post the Jakarta administration should speed up the creation of detailed guidelines to accompany the enforcement of the ban.

"There will be resistance and confusion among people if officials don't guide them on how to comply with the regulation," Bayu said.

Bayu said the Jakarta administration should prepare places for people to dispose of birds or they could end up being burned or dumped throughout the city and become a hygiene risk.

Jakarta will also receive new supplies of the flu treatment drug oseltamivir, which will be stockpiled at hospitals and district-level health clinics around the city, he said, without specifying the amount.

The central government has committed to pay poultry owners Rp 12,500 (US$1.34) for each infected bird culled by officials.

Sutiyoso, meanwhile, is not offering any compensation to owners.

A proper public information campaign was essential if the city's ban on backyard chickens was to succeed, Bayu said.

The head of the city council's commission B for the economy and finance, Nurmansjah Lubis, said officials' commitment to implementing the regulation would also be vital.

The city council has approved a Rp 4.5 billion (about US$493,000) budget this year for the municipal Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Agency to monitor poultry.
