I hope that you enjoy this as much as I did. Communication between humans and animals. Wonderful!
:)))))))))))
Laugh more and play more.

The truth is that there are multiple levels of activity behind what appears to be a play of incredible magnitude. Would you be surprised to learn that you are writing the lines and until you can figure out a point to the script, there is none? The search for answers to this question intrigues the mind. Cooperation is a natural phenomenon as long as the need to control is absent. The need to control is a learned activity that becomes habitual through the experience of it. If you accept responsibility by making a personal commitment between you and the creative energy that focused you through thought into this existence you may enjoy taking yourself to the edge of extinction for the fun of the adventure…Purity of response to this outweighs educational degrees. Those who know the least of what is going on will hear first. If you are serious in attempting to understand this then if you dare, look at the events that you have already experienced and you will see that this has been the case many times. Now you must decide whether to take back your power, remove the blindfold of your own volition or wait until it’s removed for you. Where do you stand at this pivotal point? You must ask yourself and you must answer yourself! ( Copy of text which I first posted on my previous blog Sourcesense ll, on 1st July 2009.)

How did it feel like working at the Petö Institute at the beginning of the 1980's?
'It felt like the smell of freshly cut grass infused with a particular ray of sunshine that carried the light of simplicity, reassurance, calmness and clarity. It felt like a clear sense of focus and determination merged with the gentle breeze of everyday life with its noises, textures and feelings. Bringing this magical combination of peace (a kind of knowing), clarity and compassion into our distinctively perceivable three-dimensional world of time and space reality. It felt like purpose with infinite bounds of possibilities and choices, combined with a sense of seriousness and awe-inspiring joyful responsibility'. J Szathmáry

It is not the communication that is most remarkable here, nor even the quality of the 'canogogy' that must have gone into what one sees, and the human-animal bond on which that is surely founded.
What is remarkable are human understandings and systems that deny the possibility of an even half-decent pedagogy and do what they do instead without a modicum of mutual affection, with according results.

Apropo communication between humans and animal, last night I reading “The Story of Edgar Sawtelle” by David Wroblewski.
"Mr. Wroblewski puts Edgar on a warm, cozy, paw-boxing basis with the Sawtelle dogs by rendering the boy mute from birth. Although Edgar’s condition is a terrible liability at certain crucial plot junctures, it is more often a blessing. Edgar speaks his own private sign language to people and dogs alike. He has no trouble making himself understood to his loved ones, whether they have two legs or four..." ( from the New York Times Review by Janet Maslin)
And Mr. Wroblewski has a deft, natural way of conveying Edgar’s relationship to language. Edgar speaks as clearly as any of the book’s other human characters do. It’s just that his dialogue, unlike theirs, is presented without quotation marks. Within the Sawtelle household, Edgar is by far the easiest person to understand.
Life is incredible when you look in the right places isn't it? :O)
Everything has its inner genius and everybody has an inner genius built within him or her. It is our perception, which prevents us from tapping into this inner genius. As Albert Camus said: "The opposite of a civilized society is a creative one."
Nature has nothing to do with civilisation and its genus is unmistakable.
Communication is a form of energy exchange and it could be observed and could be talked about within the narrowest or the widest of contexts. Communication is life itself as by existing we participate in, and we are in constant communication with an interconnected and interrelated existence. Life only knows integration.
We communicate on many levels and children, animals and nature show us many different ways of doing so. They don’t have the problem, we do!
It is the ‘concrete mind’ within its specific social context, which finds it hard to connect a multitude of requirements. Clarity, discipline, trust and respect are some of the fundamentals to any pedagogy and to communication/exchange in a most constructive and creative way.
Ps. Sorry for not replying earlier I was away in Oxford visiting an old friend.
