  Sharing the World of Animals  
  From a videoconference in Formosa 
        between Master and readers of Her new book, 
      on August 24, 2007 (Originally in Chinese)   M. Firstly, to all readers with affinity I wish to introduce the magnificent animal friends of our world. One of them is the birds, which are really beautiful, and their souls are also very, very beautiful. As well, they are highly intelligent and have deep feelings, just like us. Therefore, I hope everyone can appreciate them. Secondly, perhaps through these little bird friends, we can understand more about other sentient beings. Q. What is the message that this book intends to convey to the readers and the general public?  M. We 
        hope that humans will understand more about the world of animals, and 
        will treat them as partners, take better care of them, and try to understand 
        each other. At present, some people do not understand the animals; they 
        think animals are stupid and unintelligent. In fact they are very clever 
        and intelligent.
