I turned vegan 4 years back for my health but I’ve stayed vegan because I just can’t bear to see the suffering to which animals are subjected to while bringing them to our plates. My medical bills are almost down to zero. In the last 4 years I’ve had fever twice and cold twice. I still can’t believe veganism could be so beneficial to me. Weight loss and increased endurance are the side benefits
Unfortunately for you, plants feel pain when fruits are plucked...dont eat fruits from fruitsellers and no vegetables in mkt also....grow your own in your house and eat only when the plant gets ready to release the fruit. Its been proved in labs that plants feel immense pain when disturbed.
@@Weapondesign5101 Plants dont feel pain, they have the sensation only. They dont have a central nervous system to identify the sensation and translate that sensation to pain. But ofcourse we are killing a plant to sustain our life. Our purpose is to sustain the life we are given with the least harm to another life. So if we can survive of the least himsa, thats the best way.
@@Weapondesign5101 Deforestation is done to provide fodder, water and land to the imprisoned animals that have to be slaughtered for meat by the Meat Industry, or the animals that are tortured by the Dairy Industry by extracting their milk. Food Resources, Land Resources as well as Water Resources are consumed by those imprisoned animals who are going to be slaughtered for Meat Consumption, due to which the percentage of water resources on earth reduces. Due to this water pollution and deforestation, extinction of many living species occurs, the evidence of global warming increases. In contrast, the amount of vegetables vegetarians eat is very less when compared to the amount of food resource wastage, water wastage and deforestation that is caused due to meat consumption by non-vegetarians or dairy product consumers. So, Meat consumers harm the trees and plants. On top of that they also kill animals, birds and fish. This lead to the disharmony and disbalance in Nature.
@@stevedawson6979 your throat is not getting sliced to be served on someones plate, that's why you are talking sadist. Carnivores don't have a choice but you as a Human have. You don't need animal products to survive. Plants don't feel pain neither they suffer but Animals do. To feel pain one needs Receptors,Central Nervous System & a Brain which Plants lack but Animals have. So be kind to Animals be #Vegan
Didn't you see the video? Sadhguru said food is not about philosophy or religion. You being a vegan has nothing to do with the world. It's just for you. But you're gonna tell everyone because you seek attention. That's not what food is.

@@A.Shek_ you don’t seem to get his approach. he understands that, a hard peta”esque” virtue signalling and talking about this in terms of right and wrong is only going to piss people off and turn them away, a conversation where he leaves things on the table for people to pick and process at their own pace will be a lot more effective as an approach to get them to self reflect. Also you got his quote of it’ll only help you out of context, he’s basically alluding to the fact that poverty struck people are too busy thinking about themselves and their survival and don’t have the privilege of thinking about the lives of other beings, vegans who enforce their will don’t realise this and come off as tone deaf.
@@adm8995 Let me clarify as you seem to misunderstood my reply. I am not demanding a petaesque move/statement. I know it will piss ppl off. I don't even like & support how certain vegan activist are brute forcing their views in the name of disruptive activism. As you mentioned people are too much struck in their own mess they don't have time to think for soil & what will the future hold with soil current condition, so Sadhguru Spoke & led a movement for it. Similarly animal abuse which is happening because of meat & milk,curd,ghee consumption also needs to be spoken about just like how soil has been addressed. I am not expecting that policies shud be drafted by Sadhguru team to make it into action like save soil but atleast He should openly speak about it that the brutality that is happening with animals in the name of meat & milk. The ppl are again stuck in their own mess that they don't have time to think & reflect about what abuse their milk consumption is causing to buffalo/cow & how it is favouring the meat industry. I am sure you too are unaware of it. Maybe his response was from against the toxic vegan activists kind of people perspective.
@@adm8995 he is basically saying you shouldn't punch people bc it hurts your hands. Clearly thats the wrong message here, you shouldn't punch people bc they are sentient, have emotions and experience pain. And you are the idiot who calls me out for virtue signaling just bc im not ok with you punching innocent people. What even is the critique there? LIke yes, have some virtue and dont punch people, i happily signal to you that you can live without punching people. Please take an example
Veganism is not a diet, it's not about food choices. It's about acknowledging and respecting the individuality of nonhuman sentient beings. They only have their life, and we «unnecessarily» rob it from them. We are indoctrinated into this thinking and behavior, in a system built on their exploitation. But we have choice. We can question and unlearn the supremacist system of thinking, and challenge the inertia of animal use. Animals don't exist for us to use. They are not resources for food, clothing or entertainment. They «ALSO» deserve the fundamental right not to be property, not to be enslaved, commodified. Embrace nonviolence. Go vegan 🍀
@@cassclare I hear you. I was also raised to believe it was normal and necessary. However, if it were, there would be no point in going vegan and writing about Animal Rights. Only after questioning the necessity one can properly affirm it is or it isn't. Meanwhile, one is not free to choose, but slave from the «given ideas». I challenged myself and discovered I had been wrong, indeed. I value Truth, respect and non-violence. Therefore, I could not deceive myself anymore and properly learnt how to go vegan. And went. May you also challenge the ideas about nonhuman sentients once were put in our heads. Cheers 🍀
@@Raj-Sahu157 Vegetarianism is a diet which fully supports the use and exploitation of nonhumans animals to serve humans. Veganism (which is not a diet, but an ethical position) is the least which is coherent with the most fundamental respect for nonhumans individuals. Vegetarians still unnecessarily exploit animals.
I went vegan for the animals once i became aware of the animal exploitation suffering and killing of them nearly 12 yrs ago. I am nearly 69 yrs old and at my fittest and healthiest. Humans do not need to consume the dead flesh or the milk from another species which we do not need but have been conditioned to consume. When we educate ourselves and know better, we can live and be better. The best life style change anyone can make is to educate yourself and go vegan, for the animals, for the planet, and for our health.
I tried vegan for 4 months and just ended up feeling weak and then developed IBS... I was eating plenty of protein and as much variety as I could and learning everything I could but it just didn't work. I added occasional fish, eggs and chicken back into my diet and felt SO much better and even the IBS largely went away. I still get some issues now and then but nowhere near as bad. I really really tried but it just did not work for me, and I have to like hide this now from any vegans I meet in person because I can't stand the bullying they often inflict over it. Sometimes it's more sniping at me than blatant aggressive arguing back that I did it wrong etc when I really didn't, but it is really hurtful and I just can't deal with it anymore so I just avoid the entire discussion now. I just vent sometimes online!
@@AD-kv9kj IBS doesn't come from being vegan. You were not eating correctly as a vegan or you were under great stress or taking pharmaceuticals. Veganism is health. Do you know the word Ahimsa? Food is grown, not born.
Wrong. The planet needs soil, as the speaker in the video notes. And the best soil comes from herbivore grazing, and that soil is best for growing vegetables. There’s a big difference between factory farms, which are horrible, and animal husbandry using biomimicry and regenerative farming that enriches the soil. People are part of the cycle of life, and our eating animals is natural as any other animal eating other animals. Do you think cats should be fed vegan food? And if not, do you propose starving all domestic cats to death? If you see a cat about to catch and eat a mouse, would you save the mouse and let the cat starve? Sorry, your position just denies basic evolutionary reality of life. If eating ‘dead flesh’ makes you squeamish, then you’re like a repressed religious fanatic who thinks sex is bad. Sex is normal and natural, and imposing religious fanaticism on it doesn’t make it ‘impure’ or morally reprehensible. Your vegan fanaticism is distorting your view of reality.
That means, if 'Save Soil' is really a core agenda (given 77% land is used for animal agriculture) Sadhguru should definitely talk more and more about food and diet at every pit stop
Good on ya, Sadhguru, for educating people on choosing a wiser and more compassionate lifestyle that is good for you, the animals, other people and the planet. Been vegan for 9 years and my ONLY regret is not having done it earlier.
If you think that you as a human being are free to eat what you want, then that is completely true. But your freedom ends where your choice causes suffering to someone else. So yes, what you eat is your free choice, healthy or junkfood,but not who you eat. I have been vegan for 6 years, 68 years old and never see a doctor and am fitter than many 40 year olds.🌱
@@saskiad.5734 i was vegan for 7 years. I even didn't eat egg or honey. My iron level went so down you can't imagine. I was losing my mind and body health.

It should be higher then now because I finished all the box. They gave ferinject medicine to my blood. I started feel better. Doctor advice to me eat meat. Because meat has highest iron. And I started eat meat as much as I can. After a year I am better mentally and as body. And I had anemia. Every doctor told me I might have cancer. They check all my body.

Animals are our Folk One of the reasons why we should take care of other animals is because they are our brothers and sisters on account of their possessing a soul, their physical proximity to us, and their ability to suffer. In the first creation story man and woman are created in God’s image. But it also tells us that animals have a soul. In Genesis 1:30 (KJV) it reads, "And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so." Hebrew for the phrase "life" in the verse above is "nephesh chayyah", which is mistranslated as "life" in most English versions of the Bible. Nephesh means soul and chayyah means living. In other words, God did give the animals a living soul when He created them. Thus the animals are sentient, i.e., able to look for physical pleasure and to stay away from physical pain; to yearn to go on living, endeavoring to shun death and to able to experience various emotions. Subsequently, God created man and breathed into his nostrils the same “breath of life”, “nephesh chayyah”, (Gen.2:7) which is the living soul. By reason of this commonality of possessing a living soul the animals are also our brothers and sisters to be loved by us. (Farians 2009) Also, animals are apparently proximal to us. They live side by side with us. They are literally neighbors of us, just that we frequently destroy their homes and chase them out of their living habitats. Moreover, Jeremy Bentham (1789) pointed out that it is animals' ability to suffer rather than their rationality which made them our neighbors:-"The question is not, Can they reason? nor, Can they talk? but, Can they suffer?"

This is misleading because it doesn’t need to be this way. Not when sustainable agriculture practices are used. People are not educated to the alternatives.
What do you mean misleading? Is it so hard to understand it's much more efficient to eat plants directly? You need on average 10kg of crops to grow 1 kg of flesh. @@traceyjoel2473
I’m 71, vegan and my yearly exams are spot on. No health issues whatsoever and no medicine. My doctor always tells me I am wasting his time. But that is the bonus, the real benefit is that no animal has to die for my meals. No torture, no suffering, no exploitation, no horrific death sponsored by me.
@@Akash-py3yi Not at all, bro. A true animal lover and sensitive guy towards environment must be vegan. If you consume dairy products, you are supporting violence against innocent animals. First, you should know how milk is brought to you. Please watch Maa Ka Doodh documentary if you really care about this Earth. Dairy and Milk industry is one of the major cause of Global Warming and Climate Change.
Just putting it in my perspective: For this thanksgiving (2023) we ate so much meat (chicken, lamb, turkey) my son had constipation that when we took X-ray doctor found poop stuck in large intestine. Solution: more fiber or medicines. We changed our diet to boiled broccoli, celery and spinach and in 10 days problem solved. Also food intake reduced a lot and we are more active all day. One banana can keep me going for half day. But one chicken drumstick is never enough. Most importantly: The cravings reduced a lot. Now we eat only twice a day. No snacks, no appetizers, no desserts, no raiding pantry. My lesson learnt: Eat only when you are very hungry. Eat half- stomach, don’t fill it. Do intermittent fasting. Eat lots of of veggies and add fresh protein once a week.
He is wise but not kind to animals as he is not vegan. Those who are the kindest will go vegan and stay vegan, for the animals, for health, and for the planet.
The 'mainstream sect' is categorically wrong about why the nonhuman sentients are here. The 'main' theme in this huge sect is called «speciesism», which is a belief system similar in structure to racism or sexism. We learn speciesism since we are children. «This individual has moral value, this has not, it is not an individual, but an asset. Because of 'species', (or 'race', or 'sex').» Other animals don't belong to humans. They don't exist to serve us. Respecting nonhuman individuals means, at the very least, not using them for our profit, not for food, not for clothing, not for entertainment. We can live and thrive without using them, we can live leaving them alone. One just needs to challenge the speciesism pumping in the inside. One can unlearn speciesism. Sadhguru may SelfActualize himself, such as any of us. Cheers.
It seems to me that human teeth shows us we are plant eaters. Our "canines" are nothing like a true carnivores canines. We have molars for grinding plants. Carnivorous animals have sharp back teeth for slicing meat.
Humans cook their meat to make it easier to eat therefore not needing giant canines. The reality is if we were not supposed to eat meat our body would have an extremely bad reaction. we simply wouldn't be able to digest it.
THE BURNING PLANET's SOLUTION: - Even if we plant 1 million trees every year, it will take them years to grow. - The climate destruction rate won't wait until these trees grow. - Also, not all of the planted trees will actually grow due to unfavorable situations. - It makes a lot more sense to not chop the existing billions of trees for raising trillions of animals for meat production in the first place. - Simply GOING VEGAN can stop more than 68% of the greenhouse gases that are emerging from these many animals. We can never be too ignorant and selfish that we only care about our taste buds, especially when the whole planet is burning with everybody in it.
Animals produces 14% Also don't you think Meat eaters are saving the planet if your point is right about animals ?? Not to mention the herbivores animals are being consumed as they are the 14% of animals ! There are millions of problems that paves ways to burn the Planet. But veganism doesn't have a contribution saving them for sure. Coz they need clothing, food and other things from plants and trees only!!!! How on earth is vegan saving the planet , Nevermind you vegans are malnutritioned how much intelligence can we expect!
food is not a phylosophy to lion and killer whale. but definitely food is a phylosophy to civilised man. sadguru can honestly say that he is not willing to annoy non vegetarian rather than talking like a politician.
These arguments were all rational and realistic, though is there absolutely no consideration to the unimaginable suffering that sentient animals go through?
He was sitting among meat eaters who would reject him in toto if he wasn't rather diplomatic. He is interested in the effect not the morality as long as the work gets done. In other videos he has spoken about the extreme sensitivity and emotional intelligence of cows.
In olden days, survival was based on limited choices.. Nowadays, we have wider or too many choices for survival.. Food affect of thinking process... We are what we eat... Any choices of food should help us to progress in our evolution.. i.e rising beyond human body consciousness.. Being useful to society... Life is for others..
@@BenjoCovers no actually i dont eat cows but eat chicken to take revenge to them because hens were dinosaur in past time and killed most of the humans
He manages to make a lot of good points without mentioning once about animal cruelty and suffering, which exists purely for the enjoyment of taste. A kind and compassionate person considers this first, before deciding if they should consume animal products or not. Everything else he mentioned comes after.
Not once does he mention animal suffering... Sad Guru...🥲 don't overcomplicate. They are worthy of their life just like us! If you can eat something else, then don't eat someone.
The title was not compassion toward animals, otherwise, yes, we all understand and deep down we bow down even to non-moving energies. We love them, and we need to rectify the accumulated mindset of eating animals. Sadguru is the best happening on the planet 🙏 Enjoy his presence.
We should do it for health and for the environment, it's what keeps people more disciplined, for many are not able to have the empathy required, nor the big picture, nor the understanding of their own part, it's easy to hide behind selfishness when all the world does it.
Why doesn't he be honest and straightforward and say that killing an animal is inflicting pain and suffering. That is wrong. Why this long and politically correct explanation? A guru should be honest.
ay, that's true. from an ethical standpoint it get's really difficult though. no more meat, dairy, palm oil, almonds, ... because for all of it animals get killed, and I think the most cruel of them is palmoil (burning animals alive) ... I mostly avoid meat, but have gotten back to products from the milk industry lately, which is from an ethical viewpoint not any different then the meat-industry. this is where I still struggle, and I think many people are torn between this choice, mostly because of availability and social pressure. at least that's what I feel most of the time... @@BenjoCovers

'The farming of soy', what kind of crazy uneducated question is that. Most of the toxic Amazon soy goes into animal feed. Love the way he does not say 'GO VEGAN' as he knows he will lose his milk and ghee consuming followers. If I was given a choice now with what I know between going back to consuming meat or milk/cheese, I would choose meat as that is the slightly lesser of the two evils... try telling anyone on the Indian sub continent that and they will glitch into cognitive dissonance.
How i lost taste in non vegetarian While doing post mortem, i closely observe the flesh of man, i thought closely that flesh od man is not different from flesh of animals. Then my eyes open instantaneously. So, i didn't quit non veg. I just lost taste in non vegetarian diet
Food is not a philosophy. Food is not a moral choice. Food is fuel. . If a food brings down your best performance, why persist with it. We have choices. If we have access to a diet that gives us more nourishment from less qty, that is the best diet.
We must think of animals and see from their point of view. The unnecessary suffering that humans inflict on animals is evil, cruel. We must all resolve not to contribute to it. Start small but be sincere!
Yes I agree. You have to experiment your self. I did. I was wegan I got sick in various ways. Now I know. I've been carnivore the last year and I am autoimmune disease problems free
Meat is not eaten fresh, whereas i reap the grains, process them and consume them very fresh 3 times a day. Every rice grain is eaten within 2 hours after harvesting.
It's not WHAT you eat, when you eat animals it's WHO you eat. You should not eat a WHO, and individual with a soul, a spark of God, a being that desires love, freedom, joy and peace like everyone else.
Once we know how to do something, anything, and why, then it is an easy decision to make. When we know better, we can be better and so many things get better as a consequence. Veganism makes the most sense of all in this world. We have but one life and one planet, let us try to make the best of it all.
Exactly! Vegans go back to accusing you of “making excuses” and not trying to”enough”. They claim caring for animals whereas the truth is they don’t have even any regards for human beings
Carnivore diet can only help people with serious problem of having low energy on a daily basis to feel better for a while due to the huge amount of protein they receive.It can not be applied to healthy people though nor can the benefits last long enough to claim them to be beneficial in general....
It's because of what the carnivore diet removes... but if they took out the meat too, welll now were talking 👌🏽 People are healing off potatoes only, and rice only diets too. Again, because of all the other terrible foods it removes
Pehlwani diet is best for me. I experimented a lot. Vegan works ok, but I get really weak. Healthy, but no strength. So Pehlwani diet with milk and ghee fix the problem. And I am Asian, so I love fish sauce, oyster sauce, and shrimp paste. Vegan food is very boring. But using fermented sea animals make vegetables taste fantastic.
51 million square kilometres of land for agriculture.thanks for sharing global perspective guruji.And planet should have lots of desert and plain barren lands . At this calculation india must have 5 percent of all agriculture lands .
Yes, we eat food for "fuel"..that was one of the reasons why I turned Vegan as well, but I really did it for the animals. After I learned about the meat industry and it's complete cruelty towards animals - I NEVER went back to eating meat. It's extreme torture and suffering for them. There is NO "HUMANE" way of murdering animals that want to live! The torture and suffer is the "fuel" you get when you eat these animals...you consume fear, terror, anxiety, anger, DISEASE...etc.
"Food is a practical solution for this body..." Best answer....eat what your body and the environment you are living in needs... Don't stick to any specific lifestyle.
Right, I have a feeling that if it was them in a slaughterhouse they would have a different perspective on the whole situation! Maybe everyone should see what ACTUALLY HAPPENS in these horrific farms of BUTCHERY, TORTURE AND MURDER!
Why is he acting like a Politician bro, it's not about your health here it's about animals. Because your health as a vegan is absolutely fine and veganism in not a diet.
No. Dairy causes more death. The bulls as they are not used for farming are slaughtered. Plus dairy is a industry and works like one...10 percent profit every year so and so forth..so cows are fed steroids and what not increase milk production. Dairy is the major cause of estrogen surge and cancer.
I dont "spiritual" gurus that doesnt care for animals, they talk about ahimsa but not foe animals. Thats why I like S.M Ching Hai, I read their Books and she talks about a vegan World in each Page she talks about them. She also has a T.V program
Its well documented that a well balanced vegan diet is better for human health, the planet, and of course the obvious, the innocent and sentient animal beings.
The fact that we digest meat doesn't mean that it does good to us.we can also digest paper.many people tell that we are omnivores because we can digest both meat and veggies. I am.not a vegan but i fast from animal products since 2 weeks and feel as healthy as a teenager. Better digestion better energy and nice skin Perhaps become a vegan in the future
I am much concerned about vegetarians who live among population of 70% non-vegetarians in Tamil Nadu. Tamils(including me) are disciplined in life but not good in dietary plans. I feel we need globally trained consultants in shaping vegetarians. Meat is called UCHCHISHTA PARYUSHITA bhojanam that may raise BP levels of consumers. They also alter the walking style of women I have noticed as bad. Some thing must be done in giving EXTREME knowledge of Vegetarianism to all tamils as first priority. Sometimes tamils act as fools listening to croocked ideas of foods advertised as glamour enhancements.
How much of the agricultural land for veg and livestock combined is sprayed??? This is the issue. If soil is the focus. And if the body is the focus. This alone is destroying the nutritive content so while in the past veg diet was ok it is not anymore. In my opinion we need strength and healthy metabolisms. This should be individual and needs based AND dynamic as so many factors are at play and constantly changing. And what an invitation to be present and connected to your body. When animals used for health and the animals health is good and hasn't been tortured like big Ag does . I have seen myself what happens 3:52 to wild animals too all in agriculture . Also we need the cow manure to rebuild the soil and animals to maintain diversity. Factory made foods are not food.
People recovering from illness which is most of the population need animal protein etc in their diet. This whole cholesterol thing is a myth most people know this now. And please don't quote doctors , we all know doctors are only drug pushers anymore. TCM or Ayurveda perhaps and even then it has to be updated for our current circumstances we are dealing with.
Why is food not a matter of philosophy or spirituality? You don't want any bondage, you want a life full of joy. Then why shouldn't you know how much suffering your food source is causing to others?
Mam food becomes topic of spirituality for a spiritual seeker....and matter of fact everything for him.. how to sit ...,stand ,cloth ,walk ,.....sleep....become spiritual.....he is talking about common man interested in only family situation..... Problem with us is everyone care just about himself and his family with no interest in spirituality but is grown up hearing spiritual stories so have fake ideas and imaginations......about everything.... Food is about how your gut is.... And a non vegetarian animal gut is very different from a vegetarian gut ...and by seeing this very carefully we have a vegetarian gut but if situation arise we can eat meat in very emergency situation .......like stuck in a forest .....or flood ...etc .... He is just conveying. ......how food should be according to your body is ...what your situation is ......that's it

Be careful sadhguru, cruelty begets unbearable suffering. Be vegetarian ( or vegan ) and avoid the backlash of karma ...what you sow , you shall reap. Practice loving kindness towards animals too. They deserve to live too. Vegetarian animals like Elephants rhinoceros hippos gorillas are anyways much bigger and stronger 💪 than the strongest carnivores like the Giant cats. Practice love n compassion please everyone 🙏 😢
I agree, but I feel sometimes people under estimate what survival is for people. In the USA right now is also very expensive and jobs are very hard to come get. Certainly this sounds stupid if reading from a poor country. Well, you haven't been in this position, where cost of living is so high and work has become so difficult to get. We eat whatever we can find. This isn't 2010, new problems have come. Nobody will help and becoming veg is the least of our problems
Can you be vegan if you live in the arctic regions and there are no way to grow vegetables? How many animals die in order for vegetable crops to be grown? A vegan diet from vegetables that are intensivly produced, without respect for their natural sorroundings, with enourmous amounts of pesticides ,is not a solution! Can you bow to ,respect and recognize the divinity of whatever kind of living being you eat?
Long term vegan lack proteins. I think eating fish is less evil than eating mammals, I heard they don't feel pain the same way we do. I also don't see the problem with unfertilized eggs, the hens will latch eggs and it will not become a chick, it's such a great source of nutriments. Full vegan is hard and often rely too much on grains.. too much carb is not good.
@meisterhouse9747 what can I eat to replace eggs? I need to build muscle mass and egg is arguably perfect in every ways. I find it hard to do good against evil.. I have been vegan for several months and I loss my muscle mass, i need to know what can replace the proteins source that is viable.
Please for the love of Vishnu get your facts rights, vegans can easily get more protein at lower cholesterol, but what they can’t get in high enough levels is calcium.
This isn't about ideology or morality its about health. Take your crusade elsewhere people. I was a vegan for five years and I lived in a vegan community and worked at a vegan restaurant. I can tell you from my experience that i was sickened by the fundamentalism and judgment of vegans on non-vegans.

77% of world's agricultural land is utilized for raising cattles & their feeds and to change the situation meat consumption has to be reduced. That's right...But actually Dairy industry is creating these animals for dairy products...So which should be addressed first, Dairy industry or Meat industry ?

Both are inter related Cows are given worse treatment First rape by artificial insemination Then murder for sale of beef Humanity has dropped so low I feel like this is hell
He himself that 77% of land on this planet is being used for animals only for their feed while fighting for soil!!! U should promote less land usage and more rewilding of the land and afforestation of that land which was used for animals feed .if more people become vegan more of that land will be rewilded and left alone for the nature to occupy.All of us 8 billion humans need only quarter of that total land for agriculture. He says I can't tell people what to eat it's about whom to eat.Animals are sentient beings wtf is he even spouting if he doesn't understand the concept of sentence and forcible killing.He should visit slaughterhouses for one day and then should speak again.

🌱Vegan for the animals, for the planet, for the humans 💚
I turned vegan 4 years back for my health but I’ve stayed vegan because I just can’t bear to see the suffering to which animals are subjected to while bringing them to our plates. My medical bills are almost down to zero. In the last 4 years I’ve had fever twice and cold twice. I still can’t believe veganism could be so beneficial to me. Weight loss and increased endurance are the side benefits
Veganism kills more animals than carnivorism.
Unfortunately for you, plants feel pain when fruits are plucked...dont eat fruits from fruitsellers and no vegetables in mkt also....grow your own in your house and eat only when the plant gets ready to release the fruit. Its been proved in labs that plants feel immense pain when disturbed.
@@Weapondesign5101 Plants dont feel pain, they have the sensation only. They dont have a central nervous system to identify the sensation and translate that sensation to pain. But ofcourse we are killing a plant to sustain our life. Our purpose is to sustain the life we are given with the least harm to another life. So if we can survive of the least himsa, thats the best way.
@@Weapondesign5101
Deforestation is done to provide fodder, water and land to the imprisoned animals that have to be slaughtered for meat by the Meat Industry, or the animals that are tortured by the Dairy Industry by extracting their milk. Food Resources, Land Resources as well as Water Resources are consumed by those imprisoned animals who are going to be slaughtered for Meat Consumption, due to which the percentage of water resources on earth reduces. Due to this water pollution and deforestation, extinction of many living species occurs, the evidence of global warming increases. In contrast, the amount of vegetables vegetarians eat is very less when compared to the amount of food resource wastage, water wastage and deforestation that is caused due to meat consumption by non-vegetarians or dairy product consumers. So, Meat consumers harm the trees and plants. On top of that they also kill animals, birds and fish. This lead to the disharmony and disbalance in Nature.

#Vegan for Animals for Compassion
Didn't you see the video? Sadhguru said food is not about philosophy or religion. You being a vegan has nothing to do with the world. It's just for you. But you're gonna tell everyone because you seek attention. That's not what food is.
@@manny3465 Typical Blind Sadhguru Follower will reply that !! Veganism is not a philosophy, Is is a quality of a compassionate human being. "You being a vegan has nothing to do with the world. It's just for you" - LOL ! Manny thinks exploiting and mudering animals has nothing to do with the world. It is just for Manny;s personal pleasure. Yes Everyone needs to be taught and made aware of cruelty behind dairy-beef-milk industry, Just like Save Soil is being talked about to spread awwarenes of soil. Dont be a blind follower.
@@A.Shek_ you don’t seem to get his approach. he understands that, a hard peta”esque” virtue signalling and talking about this in terms of right and wrong is only going to piss people off and turn them away, a conversation where he leaves things on the table for people to pick and process at their own pace will be a lot more effective as an approach to get them to self reflect.
Also you got his quote of it’ll only help you out of context, he’s basically alluding to the fact that poverty struck people are too busy thinking about themselves and their survival and don’t have the privilege of thinking about the lives of other beings, vegans who enforce their will don’t realise this and come off as tone deaf.
@@adm8995 Let me clarify as you seem to misunderstood my reply. I am not demanding a petaesque move/statement. I know it will piss ppl off. I don't even like & support how certain vegan activist are brute forcing their views in the name of disruptive activism. As you mentioned people are too much struck in their own mess they don't have time to think for soil & what will the future hold with soil current condition, so Sadhguru Spoke & led a movement for it. Similarly animal abuse which is happening because of meat & milk,curd,ghee consumption also needs to be spoken about just like how soil has been addressed. I am not expecting that policies shud be drafted by Sadhguru team to make it into action like save soil but atleast He should openly speak about it that the brutality that is happening with animals in the name of meat & milk. The ppl are again stuck in their own mess that they don't have time to think & reflect about what abuse their milk consumption is causing to buffalo/cow & how it is favouring the meat industry. I am sure you too are unaware of it. Maybe his response was from against the toxic vegan activists kind of people perspective.
@@adm8995 he is basically saying you shouldn't punch people bc it hurts your hands. Clearly thats the wrong message here, you shouldn't punch people bc they are sentient, have emotions and experience pain. And you are the idiot who calls me out for virtue signaling just bc im not ok with you punching innocent people. What even is the critique there? LIke yes, have some virtue and dont punch people, i happily signal to you that you can live without punching people. Please take an example
Veganism is not a diet, it's not about food choices. It's about acknowledging and respecting the individuality of nonhuman sentient beings. They only have their life, and we «unnecessarily» rob it from them. We are indoctrinated into this thinking and behavior, in a system built on their exploitation. But we have choice. We can question and unlearn the supremacist system of thinking, and challenge the inertia of animal use. Animals don't exist for us to use. They are not resources for food, clothing or entertainment. They «ALSO» deserve the fundamental right not to be property, not to be enslaved, commodified. Embrace nonviolence. Go vegan 🍀
It is not unnecessary though.
@@cassclare I hear you. I was also raised to believe it was normal and necessary. However, if it were, there would be no point in going vegan and writing about Animal Rights. Only after questioning the necessity one can properly affirm it is or it isn't. Meanwhile, one is not free to choose, but slave from the «given ideas».
I challenged myself and discovered I had been wrong, indeed. I value Truth, respect and non-violence. Therefore, I could not deceive myself anymore and properly learnt how to go vegan. And went.
May you also challenge the ideas about nonhuman sentients once were put in our heads. Cheers 🍀
I fully understand and agree 💯

Humans do not need to consume the dead flesh or the milk from another species which we do not need but have been conditioned to consume. When we educate ourselves and know better, we can live and be better. The best life style change anyone can make is to educate yourself and go vegan, for the animals, for the planet, and for our health.
I tried vegan for 4 months and just ended up feeling weak and then developed IBS... I was eating plenty of protein and as much variety as I could and learning everything I could but it just didn't work. I added occasional fish, eggs and chicken back into my diet and felt SO much better and even the IBS largely went away. I still get some issues now and then but nowhere near as bad. I really really tried but it just did not work for me, and I have to like hide this now from any vegans I meet in person because I can't stand the bullying they often inflict over it. Sometimes it's more sniping at me than blatant aggressive arguing back that I did it wrong etc when I really didn't, but it is really hurtful and I just can't deal with it anymore so I just avoid the entire discussion now. I just vent sometimes online!

@@balukas8255 rubbish. Stop making things up.
Wrong. The planet needs soil, as the speaker in the video notes. And the best soil comes from herbivore grazing, and that soil is best for growing vegetables. There’s a big difference between factory farms, which are horrible, and animal husbandry using biomimicry and regenerative farming that enriches the soil. People are part of the cycle of life, and our eating animals is natural as any other animal eating other animals. Do you think cats should be fed vegan food? And if not, do you propose starving all domestic cats to death? If you see a cat about to catch and eat a mouse, would you save the mouse and let the cat starve? Sorry, your position just denies basic evolutionary reality of life. If eating ‘dead flesh’ makes you squeamish, then you’re like a repressed religious fanatic who thinks sex is bad. Sex is normal and natural, and imposing religious fanaticism on it doesn’t make it ‘impure’ or morally reprehensible. Your vegan fanaticism is distorting your view of reality.
That means, if 'Save Soil' is really a core agenda (given 77% land is used for animal agriculture) Sadhguru should definitely talk more and more about food and diet at every pit stop
If he was actually educated about this topic
@@BenjoCovers u r just an idiot wt that statement. 😂
Good on ya, Sadhguru, for educating people on choosing a wiser and more compassionate lifestyle that is good for you, the animals, other people and the planet. Been vegan for 9 years and my ONLY regret is not having done it earlier.
If you think that you as a human being are free to eat what you want, then that is completely true. But your freedom ends where your choice causes suffering to someone else. So yes, what you eat is your free choice, healthy or junkfood,but not who you eat. I have been vegan for 6 years, 68 years old and never see a doctor and am fitter than many 40 year olds.🌱

Animals are not food. They are our neighbours, our brothers and sisters.
That is the most ridiculous statement I've ever heard.
Animals are our Folk
One of the reasons why we should take care of other animals is because they are our brothers and sisters on account of their possessing a soul, their physical proximity to us, and their ability to suffer.
In the first creation story man and woman are created in God’s image. But it also tells us that animals have a soul. In Genesis 1:30 (KJV) it reads,
"And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so."
Hebrew for the phrase "life" in the verse above is "nephesh chayyah", which is mistranslated as "life" in most English versions of the Bible.
Nephesh means soul and chayyah means living. In other words, God did give the animals a living soul when He created them.
Thus the animals are sentient, i.e., able to look for physical pleasure and to stay away from physical pain; to yearn to go on living, endeavoring to shun death and to able to experience various emotions. Subsequently, God created man and breathed into his nostrils the same “breath of life”, “nephesh chayyah”, (Gen.2:7) which is the living soul.
By reason of this commonality of possessing a living soul the animals are also our brothers and sisters to be loved by us. (Farians 2009)
Also, animals are apparently proximal to us. They live side by side with us. They are literally neighbors of us, just that we frequently destroy their homes and chase them out of their living habitats.
Moreover, Jeremy Bentham (1789) pointed out that it is animals' ability to suffer rather than their rationality which made them our neighbors:-"The question is not, Can they reason? nor, Can they talk? but, Can they suffer?"

Just putting it in my perspective:
For this thanksgiving (2023) we ate so much meat (chicken, lamb, turkey) my son had constipation that when we took X-ray doctor found poop stuck in large intestine. Solution: more fiber or medicines.
We changed our diet to boiled broccoli, celery and spinach and in 10 days problem solved. Also food intake reduced a lot and we are more active all day. One banana can keep me going for half day. But one chicken drumstick is never enough. Most importantly: The cravings reduced a lot. Now we eat only twice a day. No snacks, no appetizers, no desserts, no raiding pantry.
My lesson learnt: Eat only when you are very hungry. Eat half- stomach, don’t fill it. Do intermittent fasting. Eat lots of of veggies and add fresh protein once a week.
All meat eaters are constipated?
BS
@@eggspanda2475 I know it’s hard to believe until it hits you hard.
Fasting is a form of eating disorder
Only fake gurus and false prophets would regard sentient beings as food.
It's because Sadhguru is wise but he speaks diplomatically to not rub a sub-sect of people the wrong way
He is wise but not kind to animals as he is not vegan. Those who are the kindest will go vegan and stay vegan, for the animals, for health, and for the planet.
The 'mainstream sect' is categorically wrong about why the nonhuman sentients are here. The 'main' theme in this huge sect is called «speciesism», which is a belief system similar in structure to racism or sexism. We learn speciesism since we are children.
«This individual has moral value, this has not, it is not an individual, but an asset. Because of 'species', (or 'race', or 'sex').»
Other animals don't belong to humans. They don't exist to serve us. Respecting nonhuman individuals means, at the very least, not using them for our profit, not for food, not for clothing, not for entertainment.
We can live and thrive without using them, we can live leaving them alone. One just needs to challenge the speciesism pumping in the inside. One can unlearn speciesism. Sadhguru may SelfActualize himself, such as any of us. Cheers.
It seems to me that human teeth shows us we are plant eaters. Our "canines" are nothing like a true carnivores canines. We have molars for grinding plants. Carnivorous animals have sharp back teeth for slicing meat.
Humans cook their meat to make it easier to eat therefore not needing giant canines. The reality is if we were not supposed to eat meat our body would have an extremely bad reaction. we simply wouldn't be able to digest it.
You are sick. Go to mental hospital
THE BURNING PLANET's SOLUTION:
- Even if we plant 1 million trees every year, it will take them years to grow.
- The climate destruction rate won't wait until these trees grow.
- Also, not all of the planted trees will actually grow due to unfavorable situations.
- It makes a lot more sense to not chop the existing billions of trees for raising trillions of animals for meat production in the first place.
- Simply GOING VEGAN can stop more than 68% of the greenhouse gases that are emerging from these many animals.
We can never be too ignorant and selfish that we only care about our taste buds, especially when the whole planet is burning with everybody in it.
people didnt invent cows dude. ruminant animals have been emitting methane gas before they were domesticated. its part of the greenhouse cycle.

Animals produces 14%
Also don't you think Meat eaters are saving the planet if your point is right about animals ??
Not to mention the herbivores animals are being consumed as they are the 14% of animals !

I mostly avoid meat, but have gotten back to products from the milk industry lately, which is from an ethical viewpoint not any different then the meat-industry. this is where I still struggle, and I think many people are torn between this choice, mostly because of availability and social pressure. at least that's what I feel most of the time... @@BenjoCovers

How do u explain the miraculous benifits people are experiencing from the carnivore diet.
Exactly! Vegans go back to accusing you of “making excuses” and not trying to”enough”. They claim caring for animals whereas the truth is they don’t have even any regards for human beings
Carnivore diet can only help people with serious problem of having low energy on a daily basis to feel better for a while due to the huge amount of protein they receive.It can not be applied to healthy people though nor can the benefits last long enough to claim them to be beneficial in general....
That's because their vegan diet is not balanced. 31 biodiverse sources of nutrition are needed.
It's because of what the carnivore diet removes... but if they took out the meat too, welll now were talking 👌🏽 People are healing off potatoes only, and rice only diets too. Again, because of all the other terrible foods it removes
@DanielHernandez-io9db the must terrible of the food is rice itself. Carnivore fire me anyday.
Pehlwani diet is best for me. I experimented a lot. Vegan works ok, but I get really weak. Healthy, but no strength. So Pehlwani diet with milk and ghee fix the problem. And I am Asian, so I love fish sauce, oyster sauce, and shrimp paste. Vegan food is very boring. But using fermented sea animals make vegetables taste fantastic.

Yes, we eat food for "fuel"..that was one of the reasons why I turned Vegan as well, but I really did it for the animals. After I learned about the meat industry and it's complete cruelty towards animals - I NEVER went back to eating meat. It's extreme torture and suffering for them. There is NO "HUMANE" way of murdering animals that want to live! The torture and suffer is the "fuel" you get when you eat these animals...you consume fear, terror, anxiety, anger, DISEASE...etc.
This sadhguru guy is an absolute joke. Just spouts off stuff that he reads on the internet and acts like he is some genius.
"Food is a practical solution for this body..." Best answer....eat what your body and the environment you are living in needs... Don't stick to any specific lifestyle.
where do you live? Always wanted to try human and you seem to have no moral issue with me eating what i want

Its well documented that a well balanced vegan diet is better for human health, the planet, and of course the obvious, the innocent and sentient animal beings.
Wiser and better food, and suggesting people eat whats good for them REALLY tells nothing.
The fact that we digest meat doesn't mean that it does good to us.we can also digest paper.many people tell that we are omnivores because we can digest both meat and veggies.

I am much concerned about vegetarians who live among population of 70% non-vegetarians in Tamil Nadu. Tamils(including me) are disciplined in life but not good in dietary plans. I feel we need globally trained consultants in shaping vegetarians. Meat is called UCHCHISHTA PARYUSHITA bhojanam that may raise BP levels of consumers. They also alter the walking style of women I have noticed as bad. Some thing must be done in giving EXTREME knowledge of Vegetarianism to all tamils as first priority. Sometimes tamils act as fools listening to croocked ideas of foods advertised as glamour enhancements.
Why only Tamils?
1 reason we should be vegan?
I'm surprised, Sadhguru didn't mention anti-cruelty
How much of the agricultural land for veg and livestock combined is sprayed???
This is the issue. If soil is the focus. And if the body is the focus. This alone is destroying the nutritive content so while in the past veg diet was ok it is not anymore. In my opinion we need strength and healthy metabolisms. This should be individual and needs based AND dynamic as so many factors are at play and constantly changing. And what an invitation to be present and connected to your body. When animals used for health and the animals health is good and hasn't been tortured like big Ag does . I have seen myself what happens 3:52 to wild animals too all in agriculture . Also we need the cow manure to rebuild the soil and animals to maintain diversity. Factory made foods are not food.
People recovering from illness which is most of the population need animal protein etc in their diet. This whole cholesterol thing is a myth most people know this now. And please don't quote doctors , we all know doctors are only drug pushers anymore. TCM or Ayurveda perhaps and even then it has to be updated for our current circumstances we are dealing with.
But everyone is brainwashed into turning everything into ideology with this I agree with you
awesome!
Sadhguru tum namaami❤
Whole food plant based/vegetarian > vegan
Agriculture kills many many lifes of the animals and who ignores this has to be ignorant. 😒
Why is food not a matter of philosophy or spirituality? You don't want any bondage, you want a life full of joy. Then why shouldn't you know how much suffering your food source is causing to others?
Mam food becomes topic of spirituality for a spiritual seeker....and matter of fact everything for him.. how to sit ...,stand ,cloth ,walk ,.....sleep....become spiritual.....he is talking about common man interested in only family situation.....
Problem with us is everyone care just about himself and his family with no interest in spirituality but is grown up hearing spiritual stories so have fake ideas and imaginations......about everything....
Food is about how your gut is....
And a non vegetarian animal gut is very different from a vegetarian gut ...and by seeing this very carefully we have a vegetarian gut but if situation arise we can eat meat in very emergency situation .......like stuck in a forest .....or flood ...etc ....
He is just conveying. ......how food should be according to your body is ...what your situation is ......that's it
@@dinkyjain7873 I think spirituality is not just fantasy, it should be related to real world problems, and our food sources are one of the major issues.
This is one of the most critical topic of present time on which the future of all humanity and the Earth depends.
@@dinkyjain7873 Do we know how many animals we kill every year, what a tremendous impact it has on the ecosystem and environment
This isn't argument to say that America spent so much money in healthcare... Because different prices, different salery then India for example... Sadhguru just go for the trees and its a good thing but that's all...
I have been vegan twelve years now and will never go back. Astrotheology will show you the cell salts you should be taking.
World Economic Forum propaganda much? 🎉
Be careful sadhguru, cruelty begets unbearable suffering. Be vegetarian ( or vegan ) and avoid the backlash of karma ...what you sow , you shall reap. Practice loving kindness towards animals too. They deserve to live too. Vegetarian animals like Elephants rhinoceros hippos gorillas are anyways much bigger and stronger 💪 than the strongest carnivores like the Giant cats. Practice love n compassion please everyone 🙏 😢
🙏
I agree, but I feel sometimes people under estimate what survival is for people. In the USA right now is also very expensive and jobs are very hard to come get. Certainly this sounds stupid if reading from a poor country. Well, you haven't been in this position, where cost of living is so high and work has become so difficult to get. We eat whatever we can find. This isn't 2010, new problems have come. Nobody will help and becoming veg is the least of our problems
Can you be vegan if you live in the arctic regions and there are no way to grow vegetables?
How many animals die in order for vegetable crops to be grown?
A vegan diet from vegetables that are intensivly produced, without respect for their natural sorroundings, with enourmous amounts of pesticides ,is not a solution!
Can you bow to ,respect and recognize the divinity of whatever kind of living being you eat?
he got it all wrong. u should be a vegan because of the animals not because of your health or the climate
Long term vegan lack proteins. I think eating fish is less evil than eating mammals, I heard they don't feel pain the same way we do. I also don't see the problem with unfertilized eggs, the hens will latch eggs and it will not become a chick, it's such a great source of nutriments. Full vegan is hard and often rely too much on grains.. too much carb is not good.
Long term vegans lack protein??? What planet do you live on? 🤣😂
Watch seaspiracy might change your mind on fish
@meisterhouse9747 what can I eat to replace eggs? I need to build muscle mass and egg is arguably perfect in every ways. I find it hard to do good against evil.. I have been vegan for several months and I loss my muscle mass, i need to know what can replace the proteins source that is viable.
@@Mooncake1337 Watch "The Game Changers", that will answer your question : )
Please for the love of Vishnu get your facts rights, vegans can easily get more protein at lower cholesterol, but what they can’t get in high enough levels is calcium.
He talks a lot in circles rarely comes to the point.
This isn't about ideology or morality its about health. Take your crusade elsewhere people. I was a vegan for five years and I lived in a vegan community and worked at a vegan restaurant. I can tell you from my experience that i was sickened by the fundamentalism and judgment of vegans on non-vegans.
Why Sadhguru don't said people should not eat meat or not use any animal product .just looping the question.
maybe he don't agree with the idea of veganism
he wanted ppl to support save soil movement, he was not there to teach abiout this and cause problems in supports
Because he just says stuff...to appease the maximum amount of people.....he will never choose a side strongly
@@puresingingsoul But veganism saves soil, what are you talking about?
@@BenjoCovers- how does veganism save soil? How’s soil “re-generated”?
People can eat wgat is best for them!!! Meat is good for me..soils need to be improved yes!!!
Coffee is not poison, what is this nonsense people spout? It's been proven many times that sensible coffee consumption is in fact very good for all kinds of things, including the brain.
the guy is talking about soil policy , not realising 80% of habitable land is occupied in animal agriculture for non vegan food. only veganism has max relevance with soil policy.
77% of world's agricultural land is utilized for raising cattles & their feeds and to change the situation meat consumption has to be reduced. That's right...But actually Dairy industry is creating these animals for dairy products...So which should be addressed first, Dairy industry or Meat industry ?
BOTH are WRONG! Being a woman, I can relate with breast feeding! I can’t imagine me being pregnant by RAPE, my baby stolen, then my milk taken until my body and soul gives out! Then me having a bolt put through my head, or hung with my throat slit for me to bleed out!
Dairy Industry is the Partner of Meat Industry.
Both are inter related
Cows are given worse treatment
First rape by artificial insemination
Then murder for sale of beef
Humanity has dropped so low
I feel like this is hell
1:33 🤣

He himself that 77% of land on this planet is being used for animals only for their feed while fighting for soil!!! U should promote less land usage and more rewilding of the land and afforestation of that land which was used for animals feed .if more people become vegan more of that land will be rewilded and left alone for the nature to occupy.All of us 8 billion humans need only quarter of that total land for agriculture. He says I can't tell people what to eat it's about whom to eat.Animals are sentient beings wtf is he even spouting if he doesn't understand the concept of sentence and forcible killing.He should visit slaughterhouses for one day and then should speak again.
