All lives on Earth are important and meaningful. Saving a life is worth whatever it takes. We have heard many stories of individual humans helping animal-people in need of assistance. Such love in action can inspire us to show kindness toward our co-inhabitants. But there are times when a successful rescue requires more than what one person can do. Today’s program will share examples of collective efforts to protect precious people from the animal kingdom.In Almaty, Kazakhstan, a pitiful dog-person was stranded in the middle of a canal. That’s when strangers at the top spontaneously joined the effort. They grasped each other by the hand to form a human chain and pulled the rescuer and the victim up to safety.On a cold winter morning in the United States, motorists noticed that a herd of elk-people was in trouble. Soon, a crew of 30 to 40 volunteers was using chainsaws and other tools to clear a liquid pathway to the shore. But the elk-people were unable to move on their own. Rescuers had to use straps and ropes to pull all 13 of them out of the water, one at a time.In the summer of 2000, a cargo ship sank off the coast of South Africa, leaking 1,300 tons of fuel into the ocean. Approximately 20,000 individuals were oiled, and the same number were at risk as toxic pollution drifted toward their habitat. More than 12,000 volunteers from local and international organizations came together for the largest animal-people assistance project ever attempted.On July 7, 2009, during an interview with Irish journalist Ben Murnane about the global climate situation, Supreme Master Ching Hai suggested the best way for humans to live. “We are the so-called civilized, intelligent, superior species – the human race. Shouldn’t we reconsider how to act with befitting manner? That is, to protect, love, and preserve the life of our co-inhabitants, the animal-persons, the environment. These certainly are recommendable, noble and proper actions. Just be veg, go green, do good.”
