He has been good, not very active on the forums but good I still went over to his place about 2 weeks ago and we talked for ages, hes really the guy you need to talk to about all sorts of things

Anyway, I believe that animals do sense the good intentions and will trust somebody that has the best intentions with them better than somebody that is there to hurt them, they instinctively sense this.

As for LDs, I think the good intentions and the being in touch with the universe sort of go together in the same boat, ultimately. I think there are few people that use LDs for a good purpose, while not being a kind person at the same time. It just sorta would clash with eachother. Thats like a spiritual master who is a complete asshole, than he is not what he claims to be. I think somebody who truly uses his LD for the purposes mentioned and to 'get more in touch with the universe' is usually a kind person aswell. Being in touch with the universe mostly results in kindness aswell (and not being in touch does not result in hatred or something of course, not necessarily).

So its hard to answer the question regarding the animals, however we humans have similar instincts don't we? We too feel a persons 'vibe'. up to a lesser extend and we don't run away, but its just a toned down version of what an animal does. Animals are more emotional, humans are more rational.
