vegetarianism

Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chance for survival of life on earth as much as switching over to a vegetarian diet. Albert  Einstein.

It has been rightly said that we are what we eat , because the kind of food that we eat has a direct impact on how we think and therefore ,it is crucial to what we become finally -recent studies made by modern medical science have suggested that  the human body is not naturally designed to digest and assimilate  non-vegetarian food. That is why,today,most of the medical practitioners recommend a healthy vegetarian diet to their patients who are suffering from lifestyle disorders. Along  with scientific studies, individual researches made all over the world have also clearly pointed out that when an animal is killed for meat, it experiences fear,anxiety and pain. Its hormonal secretions are then passed on to its consumers .Such diet is therefore, unhealthy both for the body and the mind .In many religions also,non-vegetarian diet is strictly forbidden, not just because it causes pain and suffering to other    living creatures but also because it causes pain and suffering to other living creatures but also because source of vicious thoughts and attitudes to its consumers. In other words ,non vegetarian foods is a gate way to non vegetarian lifestyle ,a way of living where vices dwell comfortably. One must understand that human cruelty towards animals is nothing but a way of inviting cruelty on to self. Also the current trend of mass consumption of flash by human being highlights the way we look at the other living being and our desire to subjugate them. It is also represents our desire to tame nature to our will and exploit it for our gains. There by suggesting belief system that justifies violence in the name of need and necessity. It is ironic that the largely meet eating developed countries of the world have stringent laws when it comes to treating a pet and it is ensured that if the pet is hurt. The owner can even be imprisoned. In these very countries. Animals are killed daily for food and yet no one is jailed. Isn't surprising that so many animals lovers continue to be non vegetarian because they are unable to connect with the cruelty that goes into the making of such food. Even more surprising was a weird recommendation to find humane methods of animal slaughter made by some so called animal sympathizer. But the contention here is what can be more in human then nourishing an animal in one day

It is high time that all of us should ask ourselves a question that why does our conscience need a rational argument,sanctioned by a research institute in the West to realize that killing other living creatures is a form cruelty?Why do we need facts and figures to understand that cruelty can never bring any form of health-be it mind ,body or the environment and harmony in the world,cant we realize that a heart that heaves no sigh at the sight of violence can not be a source of compassion for other fellow men. So how do we expect people do not nurture the feeling of kindness for other living beings to nurture feelings of brotherhood and forgiveness for other own community .Aren't  we just walking on one path while seeking another's destination ?Just give it a thought and then decide whether to kill or heal. Learnt to live above self when life is precious to all. let their to be right to live for all and not just human right,then only world peace will descend.
