I think I resonated well with Jim's answer that second density suffering exists to increase the opportunities for compassion for third density. I think where it missed the mark is that while there is discussion of horses, elephants, squirrels, whales, baboons, cats, dogs - but there is no mention of a single species of farm animal. We have about 3,000 captive whales and dolphins on this planet, there are less than half a million elephants left - meanwhile, 25,000,000 chickens died today, a horrible, brutal death after a short, torturous life - and that doesn't include the roosters that are born in the egg industry that are ground up alive immediately upon being born.
I also thought that maybe the conversation would have felt more cohesive if instead of discussing "How second density animals suffer and how it is different than us", to maybe discussing how we might experience suffering in similar ways.
