Did you know plants can learn from experience?

[Diana]

Have you ever read the book Hands of Light? In it the author details seeing the aura of a leaf, and in demonstrating how the energetic body of a leaf forms the blueprint for the physical portion to grow along, she cut the leaf.

In cutting the leaf, she saw the aura turn a bloody red and 'viewed' it as pain.

I have the book Hands of Light. What you're missing is that she "viewed" it as pain, but all we can say is that it indicated change. My point is we know animals suffer but we only guess about the suffering of plants. And that suffering, if it is suffering as we know it, must be mitigated by the points I made previously. Understand that I am not being callous to plant life. I have often wished I had the art of telekinesis so I wouldn't harm the grasses I walk on, which, even still, I avoid but not to the point of being obsessive.

Plants offer themselves as food in many instances, such as fruit. You can harvest broccoli many times and the plant keeps producing. We may conjecture that it hurts the broccoli plant to cut off the flower (the broccoli head), but it cannot be the same as cutting off an animal leg.

What I am saying is I look to do the least harm. And observation tells me eating plants does less harm than eating animals. Many don't agree with me here on this idea. That's fine.
