I had a dream early in the morning on 15.9.2016. I saw a man carrying a dying white coloured animal into the sunlight. The dream ended there. After I woke up, I obtained the following knowledge on the spiritual remedies to be performed on dying pets by their owner to impart good momentum to their subtle body after their death. This further clarified the dream I had before.
What you can do to help your pet’s soul
Bring the dying pet into the sunlight if possible, then put few drops of holy water of river Ganga or tirth from the ritualistic worship of Deities or a pinch of sacred ash in the pet’s mouth and offer prayer unto the Holy feet of Deity Datta to impart momentum to the subtle body of the pet after its death.
Sun provides subtle energy to the pet’s soul
Sun is a natural source of energy, and the subtle bodies of animals and birds gain strength from the energy obtained from the Sun. This energy imparts the subtle body the required momentum for its further journey. As animals and birds are nurtured in nature, this has been established as a primary remedy for them. In ancient times, the spiritual remedy performed by the Sages on associated souls through the medium of the Sun to impart momentum to them was termed as Tejoprabha or Suryaprabha. The concept of Suryaprabha was formed with the intent of uplifting the souls dwelling in the forests with the help of frequencies of Sun.
How spiritual healing benefits dying animals
Pets are born in the next higher species
A subconscious impression of taking shelter in the associated home gets created on the animals and birds that are taken care of as pets for many years. Although these souls do not have intellect, they are aware of the feelings of love showered upon them by the associated humans for many years. Therefore, to regain the same love, the souls of the pets stay back in the premises after their death. A prayer offered to Deity Datta with Bhav by the pet’s owners provides inspiration to the souls of departed pets to take birth in the next higher species.
Pets are reborn in a sattvik environment
Due to the spiritual remedies performed on the animals and birds at the time of their death, a desire to take birth in sattvik environment is created in them. This itself is called as acquiring of momentum. In their subsequent birth, such souls get entry into sattvik environment such as a temple, ashram of a Guru or a seeker’s home. This gradually leads to increase in their Sattva component. This helps in clearing their way of getting a human birth in a quicker manner.
Skipping births
The prayer offered to Deity Datta with Bhav for providing momentum to the departed bird or animal, the associated soul skips the subsequent four births and straight away attains the fifth birth.
Depending upon the spiritual practice and spiritual emotion of the individual performing the spiritual remedy on the animal or the bird, the associated soul gets the specific benefit regarding acquiring of momentum.

Imbibing qualities
Hindu Dharma teaches us to be considerate of animals and birds and not just human beings. If a human being acts in accordance with these teachings, it will help in increasing the divine quality of expansiveness and love devoid of any expectations.
Experiencing Karmayoga
Helping animals and birds spiritually results in actions devoid of any expectations as well as spiritual practice devoid of any expectations.
Why animals preferred Ashram surroundings in ancient times
In the ancient times, the Sages had the knowledge of the mantras that would impart momentum to the specific animals or birds after reciting. Even if the Sages recited a shloka consisting of two verses for these souls souls, it would impart momentum immediately. Because of the Sages, the souls of animals and birds used to acquire momentum quickly and hence in the ancient times, animals and birds used to roam in the surroundings of the ashram of the Sages.

(The dream and the associated knoweldge made me wonder why I had the dream about a soul gaining momentum today? I then realized after some time that Pitru-paksha is starting from 17.9.2016 and this dream is related to it. – Mr Ram)
