In this video clip, Eckhart Tolle explains that many people have a deeper connection with animals than they do with humans. When we look at a dog, we can sense the Being-ness of the animal because the dog has no mental concepts about us. However, when we look at a human, often there is a veil of thoughts, interpretations and judgments that we encounter. The dog has no opinion about us, which is one of the reasons we love our four-legged friends.
