Wow krystal
Thx very much for preaching at me and telling me that I am wrong and a very bad person. Sorry but after reading your posts I have no respect for you and your beliefs, we already know that you don't respect for others. I am glad that "We are not one!" Yes I am a meat eater, I love the taste of meat, even raw meat. But I carry no KARMIC DEBT for my actions. Yes I believe that souls live in all animals, but I don't as you seem to do put mankind as being at the top of the tree. An animal may only live for a short time before being murdered and used to feed a human, but even a short life ending in pain can be very rewarding for a soul as it travels along its path. Would you deny a soul the chance of that? I have worked on farms and witnessed animals that only had a few months to live actually having a great time and really enjoying the time they are alive. If you had your way animals would not be given life at all. I do not feel a tiny bit of guilt from enjoying the taste of a dead chicken as it passes through my mouth into the graveyard in my stomach. You have very different ideas of what is going on on this planet. Global warming??? Do you really beleive that? The bible is not a crediable source of information, been alterted far to many times and is now IMO a work of fiction. Does this mean I will go to hell? Quote:

If you feel guilty for what you have done in the past then that is your problem please don't try to put your guilt on to us. I will be thinking of you when I eat my breakfast of dead pig and chicken fetus ![]() Oh by the way your idea that a plant can grow back the limb you cut off to eat doesn't work with a carrot. ![]() |

That's a great step. I am taking steps to do the very same. I think many of us are. I think most of us here do what we can and are always looking to see what ways we can improve and live more harmoniously with the planet at large. Check out many of the other threads on these very topics. |

* Where does your rice come from? Not Oz i would imagine. How did it it get to you, and at what cost to the environment? Is it really organic? How do you know? Copper Sulphate is incredibly toxic yet the soil association allow it to be be sprayed on grapes. I lived in India many years, i wouldnt believe any organic label from there. Also I had my own organic farm for many years and would watch the sprays from my neighbours float over onto my garden. * I dont have the link anymore but (all) soya is to be avoided, they wash it in hexane and still call it organic..but there are many other prolems besides..i guess if you are growing your own from guaranteed non GM seeds, but are you? * How many people died extracting the nasties used in your battery system for your solar energy? What will happen to your dead battery? * Does your 'solar' system use plastic? molten plastic mimics oestrogen and is very harmful to the planet. * I shake my head at you lack of awareness of global warming. Mankind's effect on the problem is maybe 0.0000001 %, ok i made up the number, but its in the correct ballpark, warming is not anthropological. * Everything is alive, even the rocks. Do you really know the difference between eating an animal and eating a plant? Carrots dont have branches, they dont grow back. By the same analogy, if an animal has given birth is that a branch? Is it ok to eat it then? OK I wont go on..what I am trying to say is try to remove yourself from the dogma and FEEL for yourself what is right and wrong and what you should eat, and how you should live. Its your karma after all, do you want to put that in the hands of others who are misinforming you? And is your way the way of others? Should you be telling others they are right or wrong in their choices? |

Vidya,
You raise some interesting points. I read that 99.99% of lead in lead-acid batteries is actually recycled into new batteries. It is one of the industries that gets this basically right. (Lead being so heavy is easy to separate I guess). It has been estimated that more greenhouse gas is emitted in the production of a solar panel than the solar panel will save during its working life ... however: There are still good reasons to have solar: remote areas is one - helps avoid using inefficient small scale generators, and best of all: independence - one less link to the system. A.. |

I built a solar system to be free from the grid and to be in control of my own situation. Micro-Hydro would be my power of choice, and maybe direct mechanical, not electrical.... However, the older I get the more candle light appeals to me ![]() My battery 'problems' really relate to the nasty exploitation of people and environments at the point of extraction. Lead is so expensive I am sure they do recycle it, but recycling generally is inefficient and harmful. And not everyone is conscientious enough to recycle their batteries. Better to not produce waste in the first place....there is much to be said for a simple life off the gid and as far out of the sytem as possible. |

Once upon a time we developed a taste for meat and now it has become a habit
When we eat flesh we also eat the emotions ingrained in the fibers of the animal So spiritual wise its better to restrict the eating of conscious beings like animals It is believed that a ceremonially dedication of the animal to God also removes the passions in the animals flesh so its better suited for us to eat it Now if we are to evolve and advance emotionally mentally and spiritually as a community and as individuals we cannot continue the brutal slaughter of our fellow conscious beings It is common sense We should all make an effort to restrict the intake of animal flesh There will be no slaughterhouses in the new garden |

maybe we all live on prana at this point? [i would say, sort of off topic, a forest garden would be a nice place to live, to live off the fruiting bodies so as to propagate their life cycles] Last edited by Vidya Moksha; 08-31-2009 at 12:54 PM. |

As the majority of the people on the planet openly eat insects I wonder what people think of that? Are insects more evoled than plants?
![]() Even veggies are responsible for the death of insects. They are killed while harvesting the crop and are killed in the process of making food, next time you are eating your bread don't worry about the tiny little pieces of fly you are eating, in feeding ourselves it is impossible not to kill something. So if by causing the death of something gives you a karmatic debt then we are all massively in debt. Stick around krystal you might just learn something ![]() |

Good point as that is exactly what they are doing, anything to justify the killings they partake in.
![]() btw I harvest my garden without killing insects. |

I agree whole heartedly,plants have a circulatory system. thy breath. express them selves. and the list go no. I just sorry more people don't see this and and respect the plant life more. it ok to eat them. that what we do, that's what your teeth were designed for. Im not bashing plant eaters. I applaud it. I eat meat. I have harvested my own food. I feel this connects to the earth more than if you go to the store. if you think not. go grow a garden. does that connect you to the earth. I think so, the same can be said for harvesting an animal. and until you have dun it. you wouldn't understand. I think jesus usto walk the desert with some sheep. and I dont think he was fallowing the heard. duuring the healing sessions there were 100 if not 1000 on animals slotdered to appease the gods. do the research. I believe he was a fishermen. the story of the 2 fish. god dam holier than now. solar is toxic and requires oil to make the panels. lots of it. it no more green than a coal plant. the old bait and swithch trick. and we eat it up. so blind we are. people are funny. aren't they. holier than now. god created all living creatures. beautiful creatures thay all are. If I eat one there life energy gives me subtenants. there life energy. it is a sacrifice. plant animal. dont fool yourselves. were no different from each other. look a little deeper and you will se that. Look at me Im a fish. a beautiful lamb. I would prefer the life of an steelhead salmon over a carrot. I think its healthy to have a well rounded diet. and I wont feel your guilt. for living or dieing. I mhoping the crabs in ther ocean eats me. or a great white. save on barial costs.

We all share the same essence with element mineral plant animal God But most of us live and function in the apparent reality with its abundant diversity of forms and level of awareness So it is natural and practical to make distinctions regarding for instance what to eat what to avoid whatever Common sense says not to approach the tiger eventho in essence it is same as us namely Consciousness but who thinks twice about lifting a little kitten So we have to eat But its no good argument to say plants are conscious too so we might as well eat animals also There is a distinction in the level of awareness between plants and animals Consciousness is awake in the Animal Kingom Consciousness is dreaming in the Vegetable Kingdom Also i believe the effect of animal slaughter with its blood and gore affect us more adversly then the harvest of plants Again in essence all is Consciousness And we live in a world where practical distinctions ought to be made |

week augments . and there just that. dividing us all. I don't care to defend myself. no need , just trying to open you eyes a bit further. this conversation is like religion. dbl sided and once it get in its hard to get out. dividing us all. I don't judge plant eaters. but Its almost like racism wit this topic with some plant eaters. I guess Im just a useless eater.. open you minds and your hearts and look at what were doing with this conversation. were drawing battle lines. not me. I applaud you for your choices. and I respect your views. to bad you don't mine. now that's Consciousness behavior.

I also eat a little meat
But its better if we try to restrict it for the sake of our spirituality and for the well being of our conscious awake animals Sure plants are conscious too engaged in a dream We have to eat So we should choose most from the kingdom of plants and less from the animal kingdom |

I concur Dagon. My posts were aimed initially at what seemed to be tired old dogma, peddled out without personal experience or awareness. Mixed with a dose of current disinformed propaganda and lack of real environmental awareness. I think awareness and a conscious choice is the answer. And its immoral to impose morals onto someone else, its your life choice and no one elses, we are all ultimately accountable (and to ourselves most likely) for what we do.
I was also waiting for someone who could see auras to comment, many people who do see them wouldnt touch processed fast foods just for the aura they give off. |
