Guest guest Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 This paragraph from Swamiji's Complete Works might be of interest. " The animal is a state of sojourn for the Jiva evolving from lower forms. In course of time the animal becomes man. It is a significant fact that as the human population is increasing, the animal population is decreasing. The animal souls are all becoming men. So many species of animals have become men already. Where else have they gone? " (Vol. 1, Page 400) To read the entire lecture, go to www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info then Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda, then Volume 1, then Lectures and Discourses, then Steps of Hindu Philosophic thought.
