    Dear Rawn:

    I found your correspondence in respect to this subject very interesting. Is it
    possible that a psychologist that communicates with animals and provides
    therapy for them, uses the technique of Transfer of Consciousness, or is
    another technique used in that case?

    While we are on the subject of animals, what purpose did the statues of animals
    serve in early Egyptian days. I suppose that books have been written on this
    subject. It appears that the Egyptians paid a certain tribute and adoration to
    certain animals, maybe not all. I have never researched the subject, but
    thought you might be able to share your wisdom on this subject.

    Dear Olivier,

    While *every* physical thing has an astral body, the structure of the
    astral body itself and its relationship to the mental and physical
    bodies, is different in each of the three categories you list. The
    astral body of the average human for example, is very complex and
    capable of a broad range of experience and expression. The astral
    bodies of most other animals are not quite as complex and not capable of
    the same degree of expression and experience as the human. An animal
    does experience emotion as they interact with their environment but it
    is significantly different than human emotion. The astral bodies of
    plants, while quite complex, do not experience "emotion", per se. They
    do interact with their environment and experience an astral reaction,
    but these reactions are very simple (unlike "emotions") and are
    necessitated by nature as opposed to choice. Objects, in general
    (unless they are infused with an astral charge through magic, worship,
    etc.), possess very rudimentary astral bodies and while they are capable
    of storing emotional/astral energies, they are incapable of experiencing
    emotions or of emotional expression.

    >> Do plants, objects and animals have thoughts in the same way as
    humans do? <<

    For physical things, *thinking* requires a physical brain so only
    animals and insects are capable of *thinking*. However, *every* thing
    exists within an ocean of ideas, so to speak. The temporal mental body
    of *every* thing attracts ideas, ingests and expresses ideas, but not
    all temporal mental bodies are capable of *interpreting*, *comparing*
    and *choosing* from the ideas that surround them. An object for
    example, expresses at least one idea by its very nature but is incapable
    of doing anything other than purely expressing the idea(s). It does not
    filter those ideas or think about how it might want to express those
    ideas. A plant, since it has a more complex temporal mental body,
    experiences and expresses ideas but again, it is not capable thinking
    (i.e., interpreting, comparing and choosing). Animals, which have
    rather complex mental bodies AND brains, are indeed capable of thinking.
    Some species (such as humans, Elephants, Whales and Dolphins, to name a
    few) have very, very complex mental bodies with brains to match and are
    capable of profound thinking. In general, insects are capable of
    thinking but it is probably the most rudimentary type of thinking,
    except when it comes to hive- or group-minded insects. Some of the most
    complex insect group-minds are capable of profound thinking.

    >> Do they have an immortal spirit in the same way humans do? <<

    Yes. *Every* thing has an eternal mental body. Or rather, every
    *thing* is an expression of an eternal mental body / immortal spirit.

    I think that you will find great pleasure in the "transference of
    consciousness" exercises. Using those techniques, you will be able to
    experience what an object experiences, feel what a plant feels, think an
    animal's thoughts, etc., for yourself. :)

    My best to you,
    :) Rawn Clark
