Is the Zoo an Educational Experience for Children - Day 333

Continuing with the Blog Series 'Who is Responsible for our Children's Education':

 

I used to love going to the Zoo with  my family as a child; we used to go on Saturdays, seeing these amazing and rare animals that I would normally read/see in my Children books. It was a fun and Educative experience. Or so I believed…

 

A few months ago, I took my Nephews to the Zoo when I visited them in Israel. I thought it would be a cool time to enjoy myself with the kids because my memories of the Zoo were quite Awesome. However, the moment I stepped into the Zoo, and I saw the animals locked up in such small places and/or cages, it hit me hard.

Obviously, I didn't look at these things as a child; I didn't have any reference for any other ways of living and existing and I accepted it exactly as it was. But now, as a grown up, I couldn't compute how we have accepted and allowed the lock up of these animals for our blissful Enjoyment; Enjoyment that we have justified for ourselves as Educational purposes to quiet out our inner conflict we try so hard to ignore.

 

Let's have a look at the Educational aspect of these entertainment parks, such as Zoo and within that, what would be installed and imprinted within the Child Mind and how that would influence the Child's life and the Decisions the Child would make in their Life. The best way I know how to do this is through traveling back in time to when I was a child, Experiencing myself in the Zoo, and bring the moment Here for self evaluation:

1. I couldn't grasp that a small area such as our National Zoo is in itself invalid in terms of the Limitation it places on the Animals ability to move, explore and experience themselves. As a child the Zoo area seemed like a huge place and it never crossed my mind that it is unnatural to place Animals in such a small space. Furthermore, I'm pretty sure that I were to ask this question, I would be given a manipulative answer that is not based on the Principle of 'that which is best for all Lives'.

2. Seeing Animals locked up in  cages while animating their Experience in my imagination based on my Children books - it made me believe that the Animals supposed to be locked up and it's ok because they are happy. I mean, they seem happy in my children book don't they?

3. Animals are Valued less than a human being because one wouldn't dare to lock up their child in a cage while it is very Normal when it comes to Animals and therefore, the conclusion must be that the Value of the Life of  animals is less than the Value of life of the human and as such, Humans are Superior to Animals.

 

These are just the immediate things that I could see when placing myself back in my 'younger' shoes. I'm sure there is much more to it on the Quantum mind, Unconscious Mind and Subconscious Mind.

 

Now another memory came up - I remember an event with a kid that I took care for, a few years back: he was watching a new DVD that he just received from his mother. In one of the Scenes, the Princess was locked inside a cage and in that moment, the Kid completely lost it and started screaming and yelling, asking to release the Princess from the Cage. Is it possible that Subconsciously, already at the age of 2 years, we are aware of the cruelty and the abuse involved in locking someone up in a cage, whether it is a princess or a tigress in a zoo?

 

So what are we teaching our Children in the relationship between humans and animals? We are perpetuating the separation between Human and animal, human domination over the animal kingdom, with no regard for the Life of the animal, for the Right to Life, within this physical existence. And so, continuing the cycle of human-animal abuse that come from an existential history of the relationship between man and animal. This existential history in the relationship between man and animal can be investigated in the History of the Animals on Earth, way before the written History, which is available on EQAFE within the Animal's Life Review Series. Thus, instead of showing/teaching/stimulating the minds of children to consider other ways/better ways of Co-existing/managing our relationship with animals, we perpetuate the Separation and leave them with no chance to actually stand in the shoes of another and in that case, the shoes of the Animals, to find solution within the Principle of Investigating all things and keep that which is best for all.

 

Here is also to note that there are Zoos that are treatment/health facilities that actually save and help the Animals that were caught up within our Existential Consequences. There are also facilities that assist and support animals that got hurt in nature and once the animal is ready and rehabilitated, the animal is being released to its Natural Environment. This are valid and honourable institutions/Facilities where children can  enhance themselves in terms of learning by Example, what does it mean to assist and support another and in that, Develop the understanding of what does it practically mean to Give as one would Like to Receive.

 

So, here is a point we can start looking at in terms of what we blindly teach our children and from here we could ask the question: why is it that we were never taught/shown by example why it is imperative to investigate all things and keep that which is best for all LIFE in a practical and physical manner. The Answer to this question will be introduce here, in blogs to come.

 

   

   

 

   

 

   

 

Our Responsibility and Accountability for Each Death that could have been Prevented - Day 250

Here I am continuing walking the 'How to Cope with the Death of a Pet' series which I've started walking when Babitjie (Cat) died 2 days ago from Kidney Failure which also followed by the Death of Titan (Horse) due to extensive and aggressive unexpected cancer. Within this blog, my focus will be on Human Intervention and the Existential Consequences that resulted with the abuse and suffer of the Animal Kingdom; abuse and suffering that could have been Prevented if Human Beings would have been Aware, considerate and compassionate.

 

Before I start, there is a quote I'd like to bring forth:

 

"...as has been mentioned within the Animal Life Review Series, how Human Intervention interfered with the Equilibrium between the environment/weather and the earth/animal/insect/plant Kingdoms and created an complete imbalance in/as so many physical relationships, that it has forced all such parts/dimensions/beings in/as/of this Physical Existence into and as states of Survival/Compensation. This has caused an outflow-consequence within and as the Physical Relationships in/as this Physical Existence – from some parts of the Earth becoming inhabitable, to the extinction of animal/nature Species, to the Pollution of rains, to the unpredictability of weather conditions and its according consequences in its relationship to the Earth/Environment. To which human beings would attribute further consequence, because with the physical changing its relationships according to the Human Factor – the Human will then accordingly Respond to the changes the Physical made, because of the Human - to Survive, and more often than not; the human will ‘respond’ to Physical Changes – at the Sacrifice of the physical, the earth, the environment and all species, from the minute, to the small to the great within and as it. “Conquering” the Physical – well, the consequence of the Human Factor in its relationship to the Physical is clearly becoming evident, as the Physical, especially now within the bacterial, virus, microscopic, micro-organism dimensions/parts/particles is definitively showing who in this relationship between Man and Physical is in fact in Control. I mean, human beings have not even 1 + 1’d this Equation in the relationship between ourselves and the Physical with how Little human’s awareness in fact extend to understanding the Complexity of the interrelationships within our own Physical Bodies, let alone Existence as a whole…" Heaven's Journey to Life - Consciousness + Time = Doomsday? - Day 245

 

And:

 

"...Each time an animal has to be put down as the result of undue suffering – it is testimony to our legacy of fucked-up-ness.

Each time a child dies of starvation, while it could have been provided for, but we didn’t care to create and structure the world in a way to make it possible for all to live a dignified Life – it is a testimony to our fucked-up-ness.

I’ve dealt with a lot of deaths on the farm, and this is the one point that keeps on striking me, because most of the time the death was not a natural death where an animal’s life had been lived to completion – but most of the time the death was the result of consequence as a ‘negative side-effect’ of the world we’ve produced and participate in, which means it was each time an untimely death that could have been prevented…" Leila's Journey to Life - Day 146: Death of a Horse

 

 

So - for a long time I didn't want to face my Self interest within it all to see my accountability and responsibility for each and every Death that could have been Prevented. I couldn't connect the dots to see my direct relationship with the Manifested consequences as the current abuse, suffering of Humans and Animals.

It was only a few days ago where I could finally see this point for myself, while writing a blog Review on Derren Brown's TV show: Derren Brown Expose - Crowed behaviour is Evil - Day 246: "...What was not exposed in this show is the Indirectly Crowd Behaviour of us human being, that have the means and power to change the fate of this world, to prevent the birth of children to a world of abuse and instead to prepare the way before them to birth into world that will take care of them, from birth till death.

Understand, our Silent Expression is still an expression of what we accept and allow and what we will not. The fact we do nothing to change the face of this world indicate our Evil Expression of Human Beings…"

 

So now I understand why and how I'm directly accountable and responsible for each and every unnecessary death in this world - because I have the means and access to stand up and stand as and example in this world and yet, I haven't done so to my full potential. Each one of us that sit back and allow this world to continue in it's current manifestation is accountable and responsible for each and every death that couldn't have been prevented if we were to change the world system.

 

There can be no Excuses, no Justification, no Blame. We must Realize and Understand that our Silence is the Voice that accept and allow the abuse, harm, crime, war, suffering, diseases, etc. in this world. Let's stop the Silence and make sure our Voice is Heard and that our Voice is standing in alignment to the Principle of 'What is best for all Lives on Earth'.

You must understand - there is no one that would come and save us, there is not magic pill we can take to sort everything out, there is no last minute bail-out.

 

Educate yourself to understand what is really going on in this world to within that, understand your accountability and Responsibility:

Here is one of the Equal Money System Policies that is in direct relationship to what was discussed here. let's make sure this policy is coming to it's optimum manifestation: Stewardship

Within an Equal Money system it will be recognized that Humans are a part of the Ecosystem they live in. The word 'eco' stands for 'home' - and thus, each human will be responsible for maintaining the Balance and Harmony within their home, within their Ecosystem. This involves the Monitoring of the Well-Being of the Plants and Animals within one's Environment and to Intervene when Disharmony occurs as a result of Human Impact, so that a new Equilibrium can be established.
