"Devolving ages come after any evolving cycle. Thus, the species return towards their primeval, germinal state.
The evolution and devolution of each species in particular demands precise vital conditions.
All of the living species which had evolved and devolved on the planet Earth have repeated identical processes on other planets."
-Samael Aun Weor
"If thou canst not make thine own self what thou desireth, how shalt thou be able to fashion another to thine own liking. We are ready to see others made perfect, and yet we do not amend our own shortcomings."
—Thomas à Kempis
When the intelligent principle, the Monad, sends its spark of consciousness into Nature, that spark, the anima, enters into manifestation as a simple mineral. Gradually, over millions of years, the anima gathers experience and evolves up the chain of life until it perfects itself in the level of the mineral kingdom. It then graduates into the plant kingdom, and subsequently into the animal kingdom. With each ascension the spark receives new capacities and higher grades of complexity. In the animal kingdom it learns procreation by ejaculation. When that animal intelligence enters into the human kingdom, it receives a new capacity: reasoning, the intellect; it is now an anima with intellect: an intellectual animal. That spark must then perfect itself in the human kingdom in order to become a complete and perfect human being, an entity that has conquered and transcended everything that belongs to the lower kingdoms.

Animals are not only carriers of our egos. More commonly, animals are the physical vehicles of consciousnesses which are still evolving to the state of intellectual animals (which is what we are).

Animals are a necessary step on the evolutionary path of any planet.
