      All changes should be gradual as per another great Guru. One can eat soy, cheese, bean protein, paneer (Indian cottage cheese) and other cheese varieties, other lacto vegetarian foods during an appropriate transition period and then move gradually to pure vegan.

    Just want to add that I don't believe plants "suffer". Plants often grow much better when they are harvested or pruned. The process of cutting or harvesting is beneficial and is designed this way.

    Sooner or later in the process of introspection in yoga you will experience yourself as the witness of your mind & body and then you will experience yourself as the pure consciousness. The pure consciousness is the expression of the jeeva/living entity/life force. You will then realise the presence of the jeeva in every living entity and you will begin the practice of ahimsa. The yoga teacher doesn't really need to preach this: We can honour the innate wisdom in each of our students and they will see in due course. In the Bhagavad Gita, Krishna says "offer me a fruit, flower, leaf or water with devotion and I will accept it." We should offer any veg food we prepare to God as we know Him, before taking ourselves. This is the Vedic method.

    @RawandCookedVegan 7 лет назад +1

    There are several vegetables that also fit into the symbiotic relationship you mentioned with fruit. Squashes, Cucumbers, Tomatoes (technically fruit), any plant that you can harvest without killing the plant falls into this category. And I agree with your point, if you are killing plant it is much lower on sentient scale. Animals and vegetables are really not comparable in terms of sentience but meat eaters often fall back on this one to justify their behavior.

    I ate a vegetarin diet for years until I developed an allegry to dairy, so extreme that It could kill me. I have tried a vegan diet but felt way to run down. I still have a regular Astanga Practice and totally agree with her statement about feeling your diet in your practice. I eat very little meat, but not sure how to eat a vegetarin diet without dairy for my protein. My search continues.

    so true! if you get to know even just one animal, other than your dog or cat, or whatever companion, they all have feelings and personalities. They feel pain and fear. even if you don't choose to go vegan or vegetarian, at least think about that before you consume anything from an animal.

    I have to agree with some of the comments. Going vegan really is the way to go, dairy can make you more sick than meat will. It's been shown in different studies that taking dairy out of cancer patients diets will most of the time result in the cancer going away. Plus the dairy industry is very cruel to their animals for the most part. Eating eggs has always seemed strange to me so I don't have much to say in that regard, I am mostly fruitarian with a decent amount of greens in the mix.

    I’m 57 and I’m a vegetarian. I’m a truck driver and look at the cattle all the time. One follows the other and so on. Poor little things don’t know that one day they will be killed to be some ones food. I know god put them on this earth Maby for this purpose. But I solely enjoy of eating things of something not being killed and there’s also tofu as a substitute for this that is very healthy for you. I’m not no little 90 pound weakling either. 250 pounds of veggie muscles.

    Hey Kino .. what is your thoughts on dairy? Cow's milk is for calves not for humans. I appreciate india being mostly vegetarian country, but there is that other side of the story which no one will tell you or sadly realize that beef is the byproduct of milk industry. So you haven't reduced suffering if you are still eating butter, milk , dairy products. Please ponder. Thanks 🙏

    In Poland, middle school students that had vegan meals ended up shorter, after a 10 year study. Vegetables do have protein but they're not A class proteins. Always prefer a steak or an egg over lentils.

  • @thelisarahman
    @thelisarahman 9 лет назад +1

    My friend once told me, "if I can't kill it myself, why would I eat it?" And that stuck with me. I have tried time and time again to go veg but failed. I think it's a lot of not knowing what to eat instead of meat. Right now, I only eat chicken. I haven't had red meat in almost 2 months. But I don't know how to make the complete jump.

    • @luciancorvus
      @luciancorvus 9 лет назад +1

      First of all I think you should stop seeing the times you've tried to go veg but haven't been able to stick to it as failures. Just regard them as steps on the way. Negative emotions only lead to frustration, fear a.s.o If you decide to try again with a fear that you maybe won't make it, the stress of fearing the failure will only make it harder.
      Regarding the actuall diet one of the most commen reasons people stop is that they just remove the protein sources they are used to i.e meats, when what you should do is replace them with other proteins sources like beans lentils, and dairy(if you decide not to go vegan.
      Another thing I noticed really helped me was eating fewer meals. Since becoming vegan I've noticed eating once or twice a day is what works best for me. This however depends on your body type and constitution, but it might be wort a try.
      I wish you the best of luck. Namaste:-)

  • @johanholmlund3686
    @johanholmlund3686 9 лет назад

    I'd argue fish have feelings of the ocean. The sea is also alive and do you get it, everything that lives in it feels what it feels. But because animals don't have self-reflection, they live directly from feeling, which would be a great argument for that animals aren't conscious.. And also one point, coprophilic mushroom ought to be, or at least is very close to fallen fruit.

    Its not just meat, there is lots of suffering in the diary industry too....go fruitarian :-)

    • @manicmuffin
      @manicmuffin 9 лет назад +1

      Very true! Not necessary to be fruitarian, there are merits to macrobiotic diets, starch based diets, etc. Heck, eat french fries and Oreos (vegan in some countries) if you want! The most important thing is to avoid milk, eggs, and meat at all costs! Dairy cows are often artificiality inseminated to produce milk, over and over when their udders are dry, and their babies (who would naturally drink the milk) are either taken away to be raised on formula (if they are female) to be inserted back into the dairy industry, or (if they are male) slaughtered and sold as veal. Supporting dairy indirectly supports the veal industry.
      Egg laying hens are not treated much better. Even if they are not kept in battery cages, "free range/cage free" chickens are often kept in warehouses, wallowing in waste and getting ammonia burns on their legs and bums. When they stop laying eggs (as chickens do not lay eggs forever, just for a few years of their lives), they are also killed and sold for meat.
      If you are horrified by these thoughts, that means you are a compassionate human being. Please consider going vegan! It is easy, and often less costly than eating animal products. Pound for pound, veggies, fruits, whole grains, and beans are cheaper than meat, dairy, and eggs! And easy to prepare: you can even be raw vegan if you don't like cooking! Namaste.

    let me throw this out there, Ive been following strict carnivore diet for a while, I just order steaks from my local butcher, get them delivered wrapped up in foil, throw in the freezer then take one out salt and air fry, done. Recently I decided to cook a hearty slow cooked veggie stew or smt, went out and bought all sorts of veggies, spices etc, cooked my meal and then it hit me when I looked in the trash - so many plastic baggies, wrappers, plastic containers for each veg, then you also have the logistics of delivering all of that stuff across countries and continents (polution), and I thought wait up, thats way more polution and resources used up for a meal I will eat 3-4 times, than just having a simple steak lmao, think about that

    You can say plants have feelings, but I don't know If they have brains or something similar. Sure there living. But isn't the reason humans feel or any animal at all because he have brains (emotional feeling, not physical). I haven't looked it up so I can't really say, but this is my own opinion. I'm also not a vegetarian/vegan but I'm curious what it's like. This is just something i felt nit picky about. feel free to disagree.

I say we were made to eat both meat and plants but that's my opinion and a lot of science goes into both sides but you do you.

    Well, I've been a vegetarian for over seven years now.

But I always say that yes, if you do want to eat meat - well, eat it. Your body is precious and wise and if you feel that it needs the meat, give it what it is asking for.

    yeah I used to eat meat because I thought that I had to in order to survive, what a horrible lie, I feel much better on a vegan diet, I don't like eggs or dairy either, the consumption of eggs interferes with the natural cycle of life & dairy is actually bad for us though many people are not aware of that thanks to propaganda, I think people around the world are finally starting to realise the enormous negative karma that has resulted from the mass murder of cattle, of course some people still stubbornly refuse to admit what is happening in the world, and I totally agree that killing trees still counts as murder but the fruits, vegetables, chic peas, nuts, legumes, lentils, beans are all gifts from the earth, I do also eat seeds but would be better not to because like eating eggs, the consumption of seeds also interferes with the natural cycle of life, seeds should be scattered over the ground, some people say that plants also have feelings, I think plants like everything are receptive and responsive to frequencies, every emotion we project also carries frequencies so we can project hate or love into out surroundings, plants and water will often respond to these frequencies a lot faster than rocks and more solid objects, so yes we can literally cause plants to live or die purely by thinking about how much we love or hate the plants, and that's also true for people, we can literally project depression and anxiety or joy and peace into other people, that's why we need to be careful how much time we spend with negative people
