Discovering the DevAnimaLi Subsidiary - Interview with Daniela Bongini
The DevAnimaLi Handbook is much more than a book: it is a luminous guide to rediscover the dialogue with nature and with our most authentic self. Through the messages channeled by the spirit guides of animals, Daniela Bongini invites us on a journey of inner transformation, rediscovering the beauty of being in connection with everything that surrounds us. A book that speaks to the heart with the universal language of play, purity and timeless wisdom.
In this interview, we explore with Daniela the profound meaning of this work and how it can become a practical tool for every reader. We discover how animals can reveal themselves to be our greatest teachers and how, by becoming children again, we can face the challenges of the present and prepare for the future.
How did the idea for the DevAnimaLi Subsidiary come about and what was your personal journey towards channeling messages from animals?
In March 2020, at the beginning of the lockdown, some animals came to me insistently, as if they wanted to be listened to. So I started to channel and transcribe their messages. They gave me a lot of information, directions and advice that, also encouraged by some of them, I felt the need to share.
My journey as a channeler began in 2012. Thanks to a Theta Healing course I activated and developed my antennas and began to intercept messages from angels, spiritual guides and the souls of animals, including humans, and plants.
In the book you talk about the importance of "going back to being a child" to face the changes that are coming. Why do you consider it essential to awaken the inner child in the context of a spiritual path?
Going back to being children was a suggestion from my spiritual guides to better face those absurd days at the beginning of the pandemic. Maybe being children leads us to face the world with recklessness, curiosity and spontaneity, it gives us the possibility to go beyond the cage we have built around ourselves using fantasy and imagination, go beyond our certainties and uncertainties, go beyond our resignation, as the viper teaches. You are a child in front of a world still to be discovered, inside and outside of you.
What concrete steps do you suggest to rediscover this childlike dimension, and how can the reader learn to "play, laugh and converse" with simplicity and purity?
I'll leave this to the animals to say, because they are the masters. I can only suggest reading the Sussidiario, because each of them awakens a 'puppy' part of you that had been sedated over time.
How do you recommend using the DevAnimaLi Handbook in everyday life? Is it better to follow a chronological path or is it more useful to consult the book when needed?
There are no rules, everyone does what they prefer. The important thing is to dive into the messages without a life jacket and let the waves take us where we need to go.
The messages of the Animal Devas seem to reflect our limitations and fears. How can they help us overcome them and undertake a process of inner transformation?
We are all different, for example I was struck by the words of the boar and I have overcome many limits thanks to him, and every time I listen to the butterfly I feel that a part of me is renewed and transformed. But other people have found the messages of other animals useful. I believe that you just have to open up and let yourself go to the message, it will do the work, with patience and without rushing to get results. Things start to change, if it is right that they change, as soon as we decide to take the first step with determination and faith.
What does the concept of "transfiguration and transmutation of the self" mean to you, which appears as a central objective of the book? What is the role of animals in this process?
I am just a radio that broadcasts messages from other worlds, I did not speak of transfiguration, so I do not know if my idea of transfiguration is right. I will let the animals answer, who are dictating these words to me ... "Transfiguring yourself is a bit like tearing off all the layers of skin that we have sewn on ourselves, until we get to see our heart, the essence, and from there start building the first layer of skin, new skin. This should be done every seven years. Earthly life is a play, we decide which character to play and every seven years the character we have built on ourselves must be changed".
The language and illustrations of the book have a spontaneous and imperfect style. What message do you want to convey to the reader through this choice?
Every animal has its own language, unique and sometimes imperfect. When I transcribed the recordings I was very faithful to the original words, as if the animal was dictating the message to me at that moment, and I corrected the imperfections very little because they tell the uniqueness and personality of each of them.
As for the images, I don't know if they contain a message or not. I scribbled them down hastily, without knowing how to draw, after talking to the boar. The boar and other animals encourage us to do what we would like to do, but we don't do because we are convinced we don't know how to do it.
