Episode #34: When Is A Pet Not A Pet? Reawaken Right Relationship
-
- Religion & Spirituality
***About This Episode****
In this episode of RRR we tackle the common, everyday language we use when we are referring to our domesticated animals and the relationship we have with them. Words like ‘pet’, ‘owner’, ‘fur-kid’ are outdated, inadequate and unsatisfactory words which by simple definition set up a hierarchy of humans having power over the animals, thus making the animals subordinate. This is the antithesis of right relationship and animism as it doesn’t permit or even encourage equality between the species.
