Guest guest Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Hello sir, To answer your question , yes plants do have life. However eating vegetables or fruits does not amount to eating non veg. His Holiness Sri chinna jeer swamy said in one of his discourses with respect to the same subject as thus : one should follow the principles of non voilence as dictated by vedas. abstaining from eating fruits and vegetables is not possible as it is a basic necessity for human beings. Thus it is ok. However our elders have strictly prohibited us from misusing the rule. for ex, you can use wood for cooking or construction , but unnecessary felling of trees or harming them is prohibited.
