I that is very good point. It shows respect for the animals and a understanding they have a soul. To say thanks to the spirit of the animal for its gift of its body as meat.


For me I consider animals as my friends. And I dont eat my friends.

As for plants. I dont consider that they have a entity living inside them, although they most definitely are alive.

I do not think our journey as souls begins with plants, but with animals and the more you advance your soul the further you progress. I dont know where we start in this jorney, say as ants or beatles for instance. Or what the advanced beings are or we we are in this line.
I think that as Humans we are on this road somewhere, and the more you progress your own or other souls the more likely you will progress to the next leval, where ever that is
