Dr. Acharya Yogeesh speaks on Vegetarianism. We are not born as meat-eaters and our human body was not meant to digest meat. He talks about the first animal rights movement in history alongside animal cruelty. 3 part series.
Be Vegetarian
There is currently great awareness about vegetarianism especially among celebrities. Truly, we are born vegetarian. The most obvious factor is that our teeth don’t match those of meat eating animals. We lack claws to prey on our food source. Animals can digest raw meat without cleansing. Humans cannot do that. All our foods have to be washed of dirt and insects. Our intestines are very long in comparison to animals. Animals can digest meat very fast because of it. In humans digesting meat takes about three days, which means that food spoils in the intestines causing sickness and disease. Meat also clogs our arteries.
In Hindu culture our ancestors who were hunters ate meat. Unfortunately, their blood is still running in our veins. We need to purify it. Thousands of years ago however, out of realization that eating beef was harmful they declared the cow a sacred animal. When people considered the cow sacred they could no longer kill it. The cow is also considered like a mother because we are raised on her milk. The animal rights movement started in order to protect the life of animals.
Krishna’s cousin, a Jain tirthankar, had this vision. Krishna arranged for his wedding in a city in an area where many animals were caged in. His cousin inquired of his charioteer why they were there. The charioteer informed him that they were there for the wedding waiting to be slaughtered. He immediately ordered the charioteer to free all the animals from the cage. That was the origin of animal rights awareness. He then asked his charioteer to take him up the hill and there he became a monk and later became enlightened. He was the 22nd Jain Tirthankar. Krishna followed his example and now you see Krishna’s pictures always with animals around him. While he plays the flute the animals are in trance next to him. Even animals can go into trance around peaceful people. Krishna loved his cousin and so he left his kingdom and became enlightened.

I am one of those people who are very impressionable and cannot easily forget things after I have experienced or seen them with my own eyes.
After watching cows get their throats slit, watching the blood spurt out of the wounds in their neck all over the floors. After watching then get dragged upside down into machines and then spit out onto the ground, watching as they fell all over the place as their feet could not support them anymore, I decided to become a vegetarian.

Vegetarianism isn’t for everybody.
I really think …
I really think vegetarianism is the way to go against animal cruelty. What I found interesting was Tsem Tulku Rinpoche, in his video, The Joy of Liberating Animals on Youtube, advised his students to turn vegetarian to create the causes to build an animal sanctuary or shelter. This is to show their commitment to care for animals instead of just saying they care. We dont really care for animals if we keep eating them every meal!
a truely spiritual …
a truely spiritual person who has had the revelations of God would know that all life is spirit in its flesh and that mankind excuses eating the reproductive organs of plants, as well as their seed. It is quite gross and sexual when you truly fathom it. Imagine if plants did that to us. Yuck. Humans are gods and need no sustinence from flesh, only from spirit. The body and this physical world are a delusion from the evil beings. We must escape Maya and enter Paradise!

I’ve been vegetarian for more than 2 years now, and I can honestly say it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

Not to mention that I can still eat good and at the same time avoid all the things that my body really doesn’t need.
