Guest guest Posted October 16, 1999 Report Share Posted October 16, 1999 Actually, years ago, when BTG was still in the mimeo-graph era, the then -editor, Rayamrama dass, wanted to write an article against butchers, exposing them through our phi;ospphy to be great murderers. Srila Prabhupada intervened, saying "why we should designate only one class of men as murderers? Aactually we, everyne of us, is butcher, killer, if we do not become KRishna Concious. It was a very sobering statement. Further he has mentioned that we are not "vegetarians", we are "Krishnatarians"...that if KRishna said to eat meat, then we would eat meat. But KRishna said, "Putr, pushpan, phalam toyam...." It is not such a wonderful thing to be a vegetarian, even the monkeys, pigeons are vegetarian, but we offer our food to KRishna, therefore, Krishnatarian!"
