Few survivors from mass whale stranding in AustraliaWhales stranded on Tasmania, Australia. Of an original 45 sperm whales found mysteriously beached on the southern coast of Tasmania, 38 were not able to survive. Rescuers are trying to keep alive the 7 survivors, which include young whales, by watering their drying skin while awaiting the next high tide to help lead them back out to sea.
The cause of the stranding is unknown. Commenting on the beached whales’ predicament, Tasmanian Parks and Wildlife Services spokeswoman Liz Wren said, "It's much harder on them when they strand because the great weight of their bodies puts more pressure on their internal organs." We are deeply saddened at the loss of these beautiful migratory co-inhabitants. Our prayers for the survival and successful journeys of the others in reaching their intended destinations. May their original glory be renewed and upheld through humanity’s higher regard for all life.
Supreme Master Ching Hai had stated to our Association members during an International Seminar in August 2008 the following about the importance of a balanced ecosystem for marine beings:
Supreme Master Ching Hai: So many whales and dolphins, they wash up ashore and die. There are so many dead zones in the ocean. It’s suffocating them, so they have to swim out of the water where it’s full of the poisonous gas that has been released! They cannot bear it, they cannot breathe. So they have to get out of it. For them, life is in the water, but if water is full of poison, of course they come out. But when they come out, they die, too. Because they have no water.
They stay in the ocean, they die; they came out, they die. There is no choice for them. This is the worst of all cruelty, that the people don’t take care of the environment. And let all beings keep dying like this. Just to be vegetarian, how difficult can it be? Even the dolphins have to swim out of the ocean; because they think like that they can survive, even risking their lives. So why not we can just can change to vegetarian diet?
