CHAPTER 10 SAMPLE: When we are one
Written by the Horses

There is a dream that is held in the mind of God. It lives in the realms of spirit with all that ever was, or is, or will ever be. It just is. We live that dream; it is as much a part of who we are, or more so than this life we share on earth.
There is a place, man, where we live and dream together. And time long past where we shared that memory here on earth. That truth is lost to you. You no longer see beyond the false constructs of your ego, and most of you have lost the vision of anything outside yourselves. The truth is we are one, that dream is still alive and all of those in the dream are waiting for you to join us.

You humans hold such narrow parameters. You are suspicious of first of all anyone outside of your immediate family, then religious group, race, town, country and ultimately all non-humans. Your fears have lead you to persecute, particularly non-popular sects in various times in your history. The American Indians, the American blacks, and the Jews have been unmercifully persecuted and are just beginning to be recognized as equals. What of the animals? They don't speak your language; they are above all not human and therefore are kept as slaves. Animals are prisoners, in many cases, tortured and held under unthinkable conditions, because you believe we have no feelings. You don't want to believe that although our form and purpose is different than yours, we are all one in the family of Earth. We are no greater or lesser than each other and we could not live apart from the highly evolved interaction of life, upon which we are all interdependent. You must wake up and learn to know us; to value what is different but no less important in this lesson here on Earth.

Do you really believe "everything is for your use" could mean literally that you should use it, or could it mean that everything is for your growth and ultimately your spiritual evolution? We can only evolve together, being spiritually one. It is time you understood that what you do to another, you do to yourselves.
Historically your fear of persecuted minorities is based on lack of knowledge. When you realize the similarities, you can see yourselves in them, you can imagine their pain or their joy. Their joy in fact becomes yours when you truly connect in love and understanding. Emotion is not only felt by a select group of humans, but runs hand in hand with living. All creatures love, feel pain, longing, sadness, and joy. We all love our families, and value our lives. If it is easy for you to divorce yourselves from fellow humans, then how much easier to convince yourselves that animals should not be awarded feelings.

It serves you to believe that we don't have similar feelings. It is no different than when you kept black people in stables and took their children away. You beat them, starved them and used them as you do us. You experimented on the Jews; kept them as laboratory animals.
Wake up people! There is a golden rule in your bible that says "do unto others, as you would have others do unto you." That is because we are all individual cells of one enormous spiritual being. These cells unit to form organs and systems, and all are interdependent on each other to survive. The same thoughts and emotions travel throughout this being. Love that is held in its heart strengthens all of the organs and systems, and thoughts that are true and good benefit every cell. This being cannot survive without its lungs or its liver. All of these individual organs speak a different language; they have specific and important contributions to make for the life of the body. But they are all interconnected by the same intelligence, emotion and wisdom. We will all of us only be a fully actualized, complete, spiritual being when we know this truth and are united in understanding and in love; loving our neighbor as our self, because our neighbor is our self; because we are one.
It is time to tune into that intelligence and to know empathically the one force of love that permeates all of life. That wisdom radiates with peace, joy and perfect health when we are one.
