……..

Animals are truly beautiful people,

they never take more than they need from Nature,

they never waste/pollute the food & water resources,

they never force other species to live in confinement but allow others to live their life naturally.

They treasure their family relationships and take care of each other,

& they are always contented when their basic necessities are met. :>

[ quite civilized :>]

Brings to mind a quote from Dr Jane GoodAll,

“If we are the most intellectual creature that ever walked on the planet,

 how come we are (the only ones) destroying that planet?”

Makes one really wonder .....

How to get the most blessings (from Nature)

I have long known that Nature has blessing powers.

I have often visit the parks, sit under the trees, admire the flowers, enjoyed the cooling breeze.

I have often visit the ocean, wonder at the immensity of the water bodies, amazed by the array of colors in the rising sun, and  in awe of the vastness of the clear blue sky.

I have walked in the drizzling rain, mediate in a storm, and swim for hours in the ocean.

I have listened to the joyous chorus of the frogs after a noonday rain, watch the butterflies play among the flowers and enjoyed the company of a playful puppy.

I have slept under the canopy of stars, listen to the murmur of the waves and allow Nature to wash over the tiredness in my body, and replenish my spirit.

Yes, I am familiar with the blessing powers that Nature and animals offered to humans.

However, I was not very much aware how much blessing powers each component of nature offers.  

Share with you a video in which Supreme Master Ching Hai, (a spiritual master and an environmental champion who gives video conferences on environmental matters in over 30 countries), expounds on the blessing powers of Nature and the animals. It is 30 mins and covers in detail how much blessings the Air, the Earth, the Oceans, the animals offer to humans.

“How to get the most blessings”: http://www.suprememastertv.com/blessings/

Some how, humans are so busy in our daily life that we have lost our connection with Nature. That is how we can destroy Nature, create animal factory farms (that seriously violates the laws of nature by subjecting the animals to a lifetime of imprisonment and prolong suffering) and deplete nature’s resource at such a speed beyond Nature’s capacity to recover! : /   In our disconnection, we also feel felt empty and sad and wonder why life is such a misery.  

We have to slow down and be aware of the immense blessings that are flowing all around us.

We have to learn from the animals, who are contented with a little food, enjoys the closeness of family relationship and live their life joyously/playfully every moment.

We have to regain our connection with Nature and with ourselves, so that we can be happy, be comforted and not be so dragged down by the mechanics of daily living.

May all have peace, and may all be blessed.
