	Animals in Buddhism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The position and treatment of animals in Buddhism is important for the light it sheds on Buddhists' perception of their own relation to the natural world, on Buddhist humanitarian concerns in general, and on the relationship between Buddhist theory and Buddhist practice.
		The stories sometimes involve animals alone, and sometimes involve conflicts between humans and animals; in the latter cases, the animals often exhibit characteristics of kindness and generosity that are absent in the humans.
		However, they are forbidden from accepting animal flesh if they know, believe or suspect that the animal in question was killed especially for them, i.e., if the visits of begging monks have become an occasion for the slaughter of animals.

		The way we practice animal liberation causes the person who liberates them to have a long life, but that alone doesn’t ultimately help the animals, so the best thing to do is to circumambulate the animals around holy objects and bless them with mantras and prayers.

		But that which is beyond the range of the senses, that realm of phenomena through which the conscious pathway to the Kingdom of God leads, the world of spiritual susceptibilities and divine religion,-- of these the animal is completely unaware, for in its highest station it is a captive of nature.
		In fact from this standpoint the animal is the greater philosopher because it is completely ignorant of the Kingdom of God, possesses no spiritual susceptibilities and is uninformed of the heavenly world.
		Therefore the realm of the religionist has gradually narrowed and darkened and the sphere of the materialist has widened and advanced; for the religionist has held to imitation and counterfeit, neglecting and discarding holiness and the sacred reality of religion.

	Karma On Tap by R.B. Wilcox Excerpt From Chapter Four (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		One thing they discovered in their visits to the animal realms was that many of the higher animals are quite conscious of their actions, and are able to make decisions which can positively affect their karmic balance.
		The higher animals were sometimes deliberate and sophisticated in their actions, some positive, some negative.
		The humans reborn as animals had no conscious recollection of their previous lives as humans, but did tend to possess a higher intelligence than other animal peers, and thus usually had the tools to make decisions which might lead to a better animal rebirth, or possibly a human rebirth.

		That is, birth in the higher realms was the result of a preponderance of virtuous actions, while the lower realms were the destiny of those who amassed harmful karma.

		As in the other five realms, numerous types and sub-types exist, but the one which I see most commonly these days is due to the effects of long-term drug use, the person incapable of finding contentment.

	Animal Communication and Energy Healing with Lynn McKenzie
		Animals in general are much closer to nature and flowers than we are as humans, both physically and figuratively speaking.
		As the animals are such sensitive energetic beings, they are also prone to suffering the collective injustices that are done to their species as a whole.
		Often the animals are absorbing energies and emotions from the people in the family anyhow so this may help to clear up the source of their issues as well.

		The world of animals is classed as one of the unhappy realms because suffering and ignorance predominate there.
		The animals constitute the only other realm that is normally visible to our senses.
		When thinking about the animal realm, we should also consider that for those currently in an animal rebirth, one of the principal agents of suffering is Man. To much of the animal realm we must appear as terrible demons who inflict the pains of trapping, shooting, mutilating and slaughtering.

	Reappearance/Christ: Lecture XIII: The Three Realms of the Dead: Life Between Death and a New Birth
		With the realm that is mirrored here on earth in animal existence, however, he is much involved, in that after death certain forces immediately awaken in him, in that he immediately enters and works within a domain of forces that rule this animal realm.
		In these realms we are not separated from the dead at all, but it is like this: when one goes through the portal of death and experiences the strengthening and weakening of the will, one can live with the so-called living in their physical bodies, though not with everyone.
		Quite another realm is thus continually reaching into our lives, the realm of destiny, a realm to which as yet modern man pays no attention, because he casts his gaze only at what has happened and has no interest in what is constantly being prevented from happening in his life.

		Why study hair? One reason is for animal identification; it is helpful to differentiate between animals of similar species.
		The scale pattern on a hair is one of the important identifying characteristics and can almost always be used as a “finger print”. Every species has its own scale pattern unique to them.
		Another reason why one may study hairs is for animal distribution; certain areas are surveyed to determine if a species is present in that area.
