Tony/Does meat eating indicate a lack of spiritual developement?

[Guest guest]

---Dear Tony,

That would depend on the culture you pose the question to. In my

culture, it is not seen as improper if you pay the proper respect to

the one you take, take only what is needed and say a prayer for the

spirit of the one who has sacrificed for the good of the many. Life

is a sacred circle, or it is so among my people. the creatures

here are our brothers, the earth our mother, the creator is the

Grandfather to all living things, and loves us all equally.

Grandfather teaches us that When you do harm to the least of your

brothers, you do so also unto me. All that live must eventually

die, it is how you live and die that is of importance. If you

remember to tread lightly upon the face of our mother earth, have

respect for all your brothers, take only what is needed and never

without asking, or thanking the one who offers to meet your needs,

Then you have acted in the proper way. Life must be in balance.

Without the taking of some of our animal brothers, they would be

always sick, hungry, diseased, in pain, this is not the proper way,

life would then be out of balance. So you see my brother it is

dependant upon the culture you pose your question to on the response

you receive.

Love Gracie
