Theos-Talk Archives (January 2005 Message tt00765)

I was referring to "critters in the 
ground," by which I meant the worms, 
beetles and other insects and whatever.
Last summer, when I was digging in the 
back yard, I found all kinds of them and 
I don't think I managed to save all of 
them while doing the digging. I had 
previously seen a documentary shot in 
Tibet in which the monks did some 
digging and were shown to pick out and 
move the worms elsewhere. It was not 
mentioned in the documentary whether or 
not the worms complained, anyway. And 
there was no mention in the show about 
various other kinds of critters that 
might've got (inadvertently ...) chopped 
in half during the digging.
