Or further still, how you cannot perceive the many species of Faerie that live and breed within and around these flora forms.

Could you describe some of these species of Faerie? I'm just curious.

Which species have mastered this skill? Are the Asceleott capable of understanding the true nature or consciousness of a stone?

This conversation that I'm having with you woud be recorded in both of our Akashic records, am I correct?

Payment then must always come in the form of your own self motivated understanding of past actions within your own capacity of compassion. This comes as a natural understanding, as something you must do in order to move from where you are presently to where you aspire to be or go within other realms.

How far would you agree that the wisest species are those with the highest capacity for compassion?

As a single individual human being, what can I do to stop this? Also, was the extinction of the Dodo bird caused by humans?

To know that you are suffering requires you to have an awareness of ‘I’ and independent identity. The question beckons, how does the stone perceive itself?

I would define suffering as an unpleasant experience. Since I am unable to perceive the consciousness of a stone, I believe it is not possible for me to predict with great accuracy how a stone perceives itself. However, if I were to make a guess, I feel that a stone may be able to perceive itself to be passive, quiet, and unnoticed by its environment.

Which events in history are you referring to? Also, how did humans evolve?

What type of negative manifestations could be passed down from my ancestors?

What do you think of the various forms of meditation such as Mindfulness Meditation and Transcendental Meditation? Are there any intrinsic differences between them?

Perhaps that may be true of the spirit world, but here on Earth, most physical objects have a fixed size irregardless of perspective. In other words, a 2-meter ruler will always remain 2 meters in length, regardless of how a human views it. However, I suppose things are a bit different in the spiritual world. Also, those species with higher powers may see things differently.

The actual size does not matter, but knowing a rough estimate would allow me to gain a better understanding of my environment and satisfy my curiosity. To the extent that you've taken your time to answer these questions, I'm very grateful to you indeed.

P.S. Would it be okay for me to contact you privately? I would like to get to know you personally. However, your inbox is currently full and I am unable to send over any private messages.
