If that was the intention of posting it here, one only needs to watch an animal get tortured and slaughtered to know that isn't true. They are terrified and in pain.
I'm not saying this to justify eating animals, nor to condemn it, but what you think you observe isn't always how it is. I once read a transcript from a past life regression of a woman that was burned at the stake for her pagan beliefs. As her body burned, her consciousness left the body, yet the body still went through all the death throes you would expect from someone burning alive (much to her chagrin, as she didn't want her captors to get the satisfaction of thinking she suffered). This same soul regressed into the soul state stated this option is available to all souls, and that furthermore, when the higher self sees little to no probability of survival, normally moves the spirit out of the body before violent bodily death occurs.
Do you believe that animal spirits are unaware of the nature of the world they are incarnating into?
I think humans have a lot of misconceptions about death. We are culturally programmed to think it is this big scary horrible thing. Of course we fear what we don't understand, but I think humanity at large would be surprised how "not a big deal" it is from the time/space perspective. And even from the animal perspective. Nothing ever really dies. And the second the physical construct ceases functioning, life just keeps on going.
I completely understand that you find what you see disconcerting. Most people can only see 1/7th of the reality of any action -- the physical portion. And the other 6/7th of the reality makes the picture look a lot different. Even these seemingly scary things in our world have the seeds of perfection in them. I struggle to see it too at times. It is a natural part of the human experience. And it's perfectly okay to question that. The question potentiates the answer. And that is the most natural spiritual process of all.
