gurudeva-kural (GURUDEVA)Tirukural Installment 26Chapter 26 -- Abstaining from Eating MeatKURAL 251How can he practice true compassionwho eats the flesh of an animal to fatten his own flesh?KURAL 252Riches cannot be found in the hands of the thriftless,nor can compassion be found in the hearts of those who eat meat.KURAL 253He who feasts on a creature's flesh is like he who wields a weapon.Goodness is never one with the minds of these two.KURAL 254If you ask, "What is kindness and what is unkindness?"It is not-killing and killing. Thus, eating flesh is never virtuous.KURAL 255Life is perpetuated by not eating meat.The jaws of Hell close on those who do.KURAL 256If the world did not purchase and consume meat,no one would

slaughter and offer meat for sale.KURAL 257When a man realizes that meat is the butchered fleshof another creature, he will abstain from eating it.KURAL 258Insightful souls who have abandoned the passion to hurt otherswill not feed on flesh that life has abandoned.KURAL 259Greater than a thousand ghee offerings consumed in sacrificialfires is to not sacrifice and consume any living creature.KURAL 260All life will press palms together in prayerful adorationof those who refuse to slaughter or savor meat.~~~~~~~~~To send an empty message, with any subject header, to gurudeva-kural-Then just "reply" to the confirmation request and you will be d.~~~~~~~~~Forward the Kurals to a friend!
