The Sentient World of Animals

 


A Female Dog has a Message
 for Humankind

 

By sister-initiate Peng, Paris, France (Originally in French)

The human race must learn the basic language of love that all species on Earth use, so as to understand and respect the intelligence and compassion that animals have for all, including the human race! This is the message conveyed to humankind through a very special book entitled “Cet Autre Language” (“This Other Language”). Published in France in 2006, this book is actually authored by a female dog named Kheops, and transcribed into human language by her adopter, Madam Pascale Dozite.

A very special book entitled “This Other Language”
authored by a female dog named Kheops.

Kheops is one of those many animals who has so much to teach humans, choosing to talk to humans through telepathy, then have her words translated into a human language. Therefore, what makes the book unusual is not only the telepathic communication between Kheops and Pascale Dozite, but also the unconventional relationship between the narrator and possible readers. It is not merely a book about animals, but more a book about the human race and human behavior reflected and commented on by “animal peoples,” to borrow Kheops’ words.

Instead of playing a passive role in producing an animal book, Kheops clearly told her collaborator that she wants to write it by herself. “What she meant was that my collaboration would be limited to translate her words and transcribe them,” said Pascale Dozite. Madam Dozite played the role of secretary: While the “narrator” Kheops “curled herself up into a ball on the cushion, and my fingers were ready to fly over the keyboard.”

From Kheops we learn that in the eyes of animals, humans are extremely arrogant, with a strong and pretentious desire to control. “In its extreme arrogance and its desire to control everything, the man requires from his animal a total renouncement from the most precious thing within: freedom.” “I don’t talk about the freedom to move,” emphasized Kheops, “but the freedom to be.”

Kheop stresses the importance of the most basic language which men have forgotten how to use: “Man considers that speech is the most elaborate means of communication. A living being whose physiology does not give access to speech is thus irreparably excluded from the closed circle of creatures of interest. But there is a language that is infinitely greater, for which there is no instrument, as sophisticated as can be, that will never be able to define the limits: that is the language of the heart. This one doesn’t need words. And it is feelings that convey this precious language.”

Kheops notes that among all species which cohabitate our Earth, “only the human being has developed enough arrogance and pretension to prevent its access to this language. While searching to dominate the world, to master and enslave everything that is exterior to him, the man is still not capable to use his vital energy to communicate.”

Losing this language, “You have killed within you the ability to listen. You create deafening noises to fill the void that devours you and causes anguish within yourselves. You have put such eagerness to distance yourselves from your heart, that now, your own shadow terrifies you. You spread terrors equally around you, simply by lack of love and compassion among yourselves.”

While humans have caused animals great suffering through industrial massacre, farming, laboratory experiments, vivisection and abuse, many animal people in fact have more advanced consciousness than humans. In particular, animal peoples are “concerned about the evolution of the human race, much more than you can imagine.” In the remote ancient times, humans and animals lived in peace. “Only love and compassion were motivating all, and all of us were participating in the evolution of what existed on this planet.” But humans decided to take a different road and treated cohabitants cruelly, and thus the animals have developed greater anger and pity on humans. The animal people have an acute feeling that “it is humankind that needs compassion.”

Kheops urges the human race “to open your heart” and to “dare to see us differently and ask us to help you.” While the human race has ignored what animal people really are, it is for the benefit of the human race to stop hating, eating, humiliating and despising animals. “Despite what you make us endure, and what you do to the Earth that houses all of us, in spite of this endless cruelty, we are ready to help you heal what you have struggled hard to destroy within and around yourselves.” “We will teach you the language of love.” “Will you accept our help?” – asked Kheops.
