This is a narrative that has many levels of interpretation, but it speaks most to the child's heart and, by extension, to the heart of hearts since the child's heart contains the unexplained wisdom of all the wise people throughout history. This story is aimed at every man's inner kid, sometimes to chastise him and other times to implore him to transform his soul into one of the species that he is ostensibly in charge of on this planet. This is not a narrative about religion or vegetarianism, but experience shows that individuals who stop using animal products as nourishment are the only ones who can see a higher realm.
