I recently discovered Acharya Prashant and find him full of wisdom. He is amazing!!!His ideas resonate so much with the way i think. All the examples of mammals and Krishna ...this is what I tell people too. I have been vegan for over 5 years and never even thought about going back, not to even vegetarian. I also promote veganism on FB. Been to India multiple times including a wedding and all I ate in the wedding was plain rice and plain roti . :-) For me, there are no excuses when reasons are strong.
😄😄😄 can’t stop laughing .. Sorry but I just came across him may be 5 minutes before this comment of mine .. and the moment I thought this person reminds me of OSHO... Instantly! as I was scrolling through the comments - I caught attention of only your comment
I've been listening to Acharya ji for a while now. His talks are life changing, transformative and guaranteed to break all your previous concepts and notions!!
Acharyaji, most meat eating people argue that they don't wish to be liberated neither wish to respect consciousness of animals, but to satisfy their taste buds.
That doesn't explain why almost ALL of them cook "their" meat with a variety of herbs, spices, salt, sauces and condiments in order to disguise the unpalatable taste of the decomposed animal flesh. :D
But guru ji doctors say that you will have deficiency of calcium if you don't consume one glass of milk regularly. I don't want to drink milk because I have seen little children of cows and buffaloes crying for their mothers. Process of milking is very cruel. I hope one day I will have courage to be vegan.
Mohit try sesame seeds..... When I started my vegan journey even I used to think that i'll have calcium deficiency but sesame are great.... You can eat sesame ( TIL) ke laddu and also use sesame oil on chapatis instead of ghee. All the best
How can we be SURE that plants are less conscious?? I think, for example, that Trees have more wisdom than we as humans can even grasp...and then crystals and many other forms of consciousness...i think this hierarchy is actually human-made...btw, does that mean that humans then are at the top of this consciousness pyramid? Really??:)) just a food for thought...🙏👋🏻 (p.s. i am not eating meet btw, so its not about that)...
Pranam! Tanja Vu its actually a fact that we are the peak of perception of consciousness. Human is the only self conscious life on earth. That's why "human beings" we know to "be" . we do nearly same things that all animals do but consciously.
I have doubt if plants have really any consciousness, they have no nervous system .virus bacteria, protozoa are all living beings but have no consciousness. Consciousness came after life.
consciousness ek baat but when they don't have a brain to process the suffering and external stimuli, it isn't really painful (consciosness ka nahi bata sakta when I myself don't understand with much clarity what it truly means).
But back then cows were taken care of and everybody milked their own cows, nowadays cows are kept in dairy farms with extremely horrible conditions and the cows are abused. It is okay to keep your own cows and milk them, however you should stop buying commercial milk because the dairy industry treats cows terribly. Such inhumane practices didn’t exist in the Vedic period but they do now and dairy farming goes completely against the concept of ahimsa so please avoid dairy
Simple..... anything which is not abundant is glorified, valued much more, isn't it? So.... if anybody has called milk as amrita..... then definitely at that time milk was not so easily available. Now the abundance of milk, industry of milk, meat and other products are the problem..... Leave milk for that reason...... or consume absolutely on emergency
Krishna did not narrate the Gita this is the most biggest mistake of the Gita. It was through Dada Lekraj that Shiv has given His sermon to introduce Himself.
Your inner suffering, insecurities, limitations verify your consciousness yet is restricted. If the above problems are not part of your life.... congratulations!!
@Deepti Kheterpal If sincerely its the only way of survival then there is absolutely no question of morality. Spirituality never derogates the consumption of meat but the purpose does matter. Whatever acharyaji has said here is for those who are willfully ignorant.
