Editorial note: The human species has a very human-centric
view towards life. We believe that we are the highest and the
best species with an almost exclusive right over the earth's re-
sources. We believe all other things and creatures upon earth
are only for our service and our pleasure. We believe that we
are the center and even God must only cater and pander to
our wishes and desires. This ignorance and arrogance have led
to much ransacking of the earth, much man-made imbalanc-
es and ugliness which Nature has to correct from time to time
through rather extreme measures. Perhaps it is time to realise
that animals and trees and plants too have a right to exist and
treat them as creatures who are as much loved by the Divine
if not more. This issue is dedicated to a truer understanding
of animal life as well as inspirational stories about the Divine
Mother's love for animals.
