Then gradually, plants, animals like reptiles, then dogs, tigers, oxen, lions, monkeys, chimpanzees, orangutans, and finally human beings. The question is: in which species does the soul enter during evolution? Is it in higher species?
Or is it from the jad bastu? Also, is it possible to see my past lives ( all from jad bastu to human species)? As we indian, if by mistake our feet touch a book or a stone idol type, we believe that God exists, then we say Vishnu from the heart. Then do these jad bastu also carry some divine portions? Or is it our mind that formed this phenomenon?
The Divine Presence is everywhere and in everything. The individual soul, however, enters when the need for individualisation begins, generally in higher mammals such as bears and possibly Dolphins. Possibly certain horses and elephants and dogs might also have a nascent psychic spark. In man, it begins to awaken with the possibility of becoming conscious.
Affectionately,
