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.

Govt ready to facilitate Greenpeace case

Antara News, Saturday, May 8, 2010 13:21 WIB

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - The agriculture ministry is ready to facilitate a meeting between Greenpeace and PT Sinar Mas Agro Resources & Technology Tbk. (PT SMART) to clarify issue on environmental destruction by oil palm plantations.

Bayu Krisnamurthi, deputy agriculture minister, said here, Friday, that in a meeting between Greenpeace activists and Agriculture Minister Suswono on Friday, the international environmental NGO said it did not oppose the oil palm plantations in Indonesia.

"They are not against oil palm, but against deforestation activities. They are also against illegal logging activities," Bayu Krisnamurthi said.

Greenpeace also opposed the conversion of peat land which was not in accordance with the government`s regulations, he said.

The deputy minister said Greenpeace in the meeting with the agriculture minister, proposed that oilpalm plantations should be opened in barren land used to be forest area, he said.

Greenpeace Southeast Asia campaigner Bustar Maitar said Indoensia has one of the fastest rates of forest destruction on the planet, with palm oil and pulp and paper plantations being major causes. As a result, it is now the world`s third largest greenhouse gas emitter, after China and the United States.

To avert catastrophic climate change, he called for an end to deforestation and, to begin with, the government must declare an immediate moratorium on destroying Indonesia`s rainforests and carbon-rich peatlands, he said.

President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has an ideal foundation to implement his commitment expressed during the Copenhagen Climate Change Summit, to forest protection in order to reduce gas emissions, he said.

Greenpeace has recommended an establishment of a global funds to stop deforestation in countries such as Indonesia an Brazil, by requesting advanced countries to invest US$45 billion annually for forest protection.
