One has to try and put as much Ahimsa into practice as possible. Vegetables don't have the same complex nervous system as animals although they do react to stimuli--there is only one consciousness in illuson. I personally don't eat meat because of the fact an animal has to be badly treated, tortured and murdered to supply it to me. They say they can now grow a steak in the laboratory, perhaps that will close down the slaughterhouses were the greatest holocaust in history goes on everyday. People can then satisfy the desire samskara of meat eating. Ramana always advised people to wean themselves off eating meat, right from the first books that were written on him. However with Ramana one always has to look to his audience at the time, for he was a Jivanmukta and therefore reflected their own minds back to them. I know there is no point in condeming or even really discussing meat eating with a meat eater, for they kind of suffer from the cognitive disorder of 'true believer syndrome' of their own ideas of meat eating. What really never ceases to amaze me is how people can sit and eat the decaying flesh of dead animals and conveniently ignore how it fetidly arrived on their plate. The ego is so strong it filters out the suffering animal in favour of meat addiction and sense enjoyment. There is definately some cognitive disconnect going on here......Perhaps a form of cognitive dissonance...........ONS....Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
