Animals Are Conscious
LS-019-11-10-2023
Animals are generally considered to be sentient beings. Sentience refers to the capacity to have subjective experiences, sensations, and emotions. Many animals, including mammals, birds, and certain species of fish and invertebrates, have been observed to exhibit various forms of sentience. They can experience pleasure, pain, fear, joy, and other emotions.
As of November 2019, 32 countries have formally recognized non-human animal sentience. These are: Austria, Australia, Belgium, Bulgaria, Chile, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

Howdy Awakenvideo Locals Community members and supporters.
We had some technical difficulties a few streams back with our Mnt. Meru live stream.
This is Bonnie's video that she made for the live stream. I am uploading it so you can enjoy it without the audio problems which occurred during the live stream broadcast.
We hope you will enjoy it.
Blessed Be,
John & Bonnie
Thank you to all of our Members and a special holiday gratefulness to our Supporting Members. This New Year can only bring us all closer to the realization of ascension and a more fulfilling spiritual existence.
