I just watched a Netflix documentary called The Shark Whisperer. There are many videos of her swimming with really large sharks around Hawaii, a very David Attenborough kind of beautiful cinematography.
The Promised God-Man Is Here has a leela about Avatar Adi Da Samraj interacting with orcas, killer whales at an amusement park that He went to in 1984. Adi Da had front row seats but the orcas were not doing anything… Craig Lessor went to ask the man in charge why the show wasn’t happening:
He found the man almost in tears. “I don’t understand he moaned. They always do it. At that moment, Craig said, he glanced over to where Avatar Adi Da was sitting, and he noticed that the Ruchira Avatar was intently Regarding the whales. Not only that, His hands were moving in mudras of Spiritual Transmission.
Craig continued, “You were the reason why the whales were not performing. You were the One behind the whole thing! They were not going to do any jumping–because they were in Samadhi.”
Avatar Adi Da laughed. He did not deny the ‘Trick’ that day had been His. He simply said: Human beings are not the only beings that I Work with.”
Avatar Adi Da Samraj: But the humanized animals here, they think they are supposed to being doing all kinds of things, instead of contemplation….
Human beings are the only species that does this here. The others are all living ages of contemplation. They know the world is not a paradise. It is not to be made into an “eternity”–nor is it presumed or imagined that it could be. They know this very well. So they use conditional existence as a circumstance of contemplation.–pages 585-589
