B: They are willing reflections of all the ideas you are exemplifying within yo
ur different strata of consciousness upon your planet. They are reflections of h
ow you see yourself. Understand, for example, animals on your planet are territo
rial because you are. Do you follow me?
Q: Yes.
B: They are always willing to act as a mirror for your emotionality. Always wit
h unconditional love and support for whatever you are willing to do. They will d
ie for you.
Q: Is this true of insects as well as other animals?
B: Yes. It is true of plants, minerals, everything. You and the life forms you
call cetacean, whale and dolphin, are the only two groups upon your planet that
are karmically reincarnated. All other life forms on your planet are simply rein
carnated, and exist in any life within conscious knowingness, not within any ide
a of the process of analyzation or thought or judgment or separation.
And to a great degree, the dolphins and the whales have not really chosen to exp
erience very much of this separation either.
Q: Could you clarify how animals are reincarnated, as you have referred to?
B: Simply in the manner that you are reincarnated physically, it is simply that
they do not do it out of a sense of karma. They do it out of a sense of the ide
a of attachment, of being a reflection, a loving reflection, of whatever you nee
d them to be here for.
Q: Do their individual consciousnesses then reincarnate much as ours do, only w
ithout this idea of karma?
B: To some degree, yes, but it is more connected, in the sense that they see th
emselves not only as individuals, but primarily as a series of relationships to
every other being in their reality. They see themselves as relationships to othe
r things, more than as an individual.
Q: What about pets, especially pet dogs and cats? Are they not more individuali
stic than other kinds of animals?
B: They take on and reflect the individuality of those they are reflecting. They
themselves are not intrinsically more individualized. They are perfect mirrors
reflecting the individuals around whom they congregate.
Q: How do pets feel about their bodies once their consciousness leaves
die? Does it matter what we do with their bodies?
once they
B: No.
Q: Well, we have such a tradition with humans.
B: All right, but allow me to remind you that when you leave you physical body
you will not care either.
Q: I thought not. So, why have a funeral?
Thank you.
