Greetings of love and gratitude from
Judy Carman
Open Letter being sent to Whole Foods
by Animal Rights organizations: Here is a portion of that
letter: “Whole Foods deceives the public by marketing as humane an
inherently inhumane practice, raising animals for food. GAP, the
so-called third party behind Whole Foods’ animal welfare standards, is
funded 92-95% by the company and has a tiny staff overseeing 290
million animals’ lives. Even worse, practices allowed by GAP include:
castration of baby pigs without anesthesia, snapping birds’ necks by
hand, and using hot irons to sear the heads of baby calves.”
This is one of our big challenges now. We have made tremendous
progress educating people about the cruelty and violence of animal
agriculture. We have not gone away as big business had hoped,
and, in fact, “vegan” is now a household word. So now the
businesses are fighting us. We are a force to be reckoned with,
but we are what Gandhi and King called a “soul force.” We are not
using brutality or money or deception. Soul force gains its power
from truth and love.
This Week Let Us Feel the Infinite
Power of this Soul Force. It keeps us going. It keeps us
believing that what we are doing is real and true and worth
doing. This week, wherever we go, let us not miss the signs of
animal rights rising in the hearts of many people Let us feel
gratitude and joy well up within us when we see vegan products in
grocery stores, vegan options in restaurants, vegan cookbooks and
classes, and videos on Youtube of rescued animals in sanctuaries.
The world is changing. Yes there is resistance, and we can “speak
truth to power” this week by letting Whole Foods know their lies have
been revealed. But also this week let us take time to go within and
feel deep gratitude that we have been blessed with Soul Force and a
profound Love for all earthlings. Dear Animals of Earth, you have
always had Soul Force. Finally, we human beings are beginning to
get it too. We are here for you and we love you.
As always, with tears of gratitude, I send my thanks to each of you,
dear Prayer Circle members, for joining this circle of compassion and
shining the Light of Truth for all to see, so that one day soon, all
beings will live in peace together.
May compassion and love reign over all the earth for all beings
everywhere.
Thank you all for your devotion to truth, love, liberation and peace
for all beings.
With Love, peace, and gratitude from Judy Carman, and greetings from
Will, Madeleine, Tara and the Circle of Compassion team
