Quotes from Scriptures on Vegetarianism

[Guest guest]

Hare Krishna,

 

If anyone knows any quotes regarding meat eating

or vegetarianism from scriptures, Bhagavad Gita

or Srimad Bhagavatam, please let me know.

 

It will be of immense help if you can provide the sanskrit shloka,

word by word meaning and english translation of the same.

 

Also, let me know if you know of any quotes from scriptures of

other religions such as Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Jainism,

Sikhism, etc. This will be useful when we are trying to preach

to people from varying religious backgrounds.

 

Thanks a lot in advance,

y/s,

Vivek.

[Moderator Note: This question and answer are getting a little off-topic - let's

bring it back into the realm of Vedic scriptures and what they have to say on

the subject. Thanks. -K]
