“Vedanta says at all times in your life you must have an attitude of not wanting to injure, hurt, or be nasty to anyone in thought, word, or deed.”“If you have just consumed one slice of cheese, you have already consumed 16 ounces of milk. The Indian subcontinent in Asia is very obsessed with dairy products because it’s so deeply ingrained that they think it’s vegetarian. Milk production is very high; it’s the highest in the world. In fact, India is one of the largest exporters of beef in the world thanks to the dairy industry. Because after repeated artificial insemination – three or four times – about six or seven years of age, now the cow is spent. She’s of no use. Also, the young calf, the baby male calf, is allowed to just die, and so the veal is produced because there’s no use of a male calf anywhere in any industry. […]”“One of the first patients I remember […] came to me because he had the complications of diabetes. He was losing his eyesight. And when I suggested to him to stop all the dairy, within two weeks his blood sugar came down and his eyesight came back.”“What I see is cows running around in the cities, on the streets, eating trash, eating plastic. They are coming to Animal Aid because they’re injured by cars. They get in accidents. They have broken spines. They have broken legs. They have plastic in their stomachs. And this is how you treat your mother, the holy cow? I wish that all the spiritual people, that they would stop talking about compassion, that they would really practice compassion, and stop drinking milk and dairy products, because this is what causes so much pain and suffering and death. If we unconsciously hurt animals, we cannot be in peace. We cannot be in harmony. We cannot come Home if we unconsciously hurt other beings. We can find peace only if we practice peace.”
