Certainly part of a grand spiritual perspective is to realize that all lives, all creations and energy forms are special -- not just those of the dominant species.
We are a global community, we must work together, inspire one another, towards building a better future.
To recognize this truth and accept this responsibility is, indeed, to walk a spiritual path. That's pretty much the essence of it. You don't need a guru or a theology or even a church to realize we are all in this together -- and become both part of the solution to the problems we face (and the reparations we need to make for how we have abused so much of creation) ... and part of the eternal mystery. Thank you for another interesting take on the "Question of the Week." I enjoyed reading what you had to say.
