PLEASE HELP ME ANSWER HIM,since i am in serious double wether it is been mentiond in our scriptures now.when i spoke to one of my other friend he told he has seen the same in Bagacath Geetha.I am not sure.......... KANNAN SRINIVASAN Hi Vivek But, meat eating is not necessarily bad! Our shastras does not say that. In fact it says "Jeevoo Jeevasya Bhoojanam". I do not think meat eating should be associated with morality. Let's not forget that we are killing plants too for food. Just because they do not scream and bleed does not mean we are not inflicting harm. Also remember drinking cows milk. Cow does not produce milk for human consumption. It produces it for its calves. We humanys snach it from the calves and drink it. Think about what happens to the eco0system if all the people stop eating meat. What will we do with all the excesses animals. I think both vegetarianism and non-vegetarianism is a personal to every human and should not be made a morality issue Anantha VIVEK Vasan <vvivekv wrote: ask ur heart about the truth.. its in there... become a HUMAN... think of a mother's LOVE to her child.. animals also HAVE THE SAME FEELING.. aaand the SAME LOVE.... please think about this link --> http://users.erols.com/epastore/veg/kills.html bye vivek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
