Comments on: Why be a Vegetarian? http://www.thehindulife.com/blogs/2006/11/03/why-be-a-vegetarian/ All about Yoga, Meditation, Vedas & Vedic Literature, Lord Krishna & Hinduism Wed, 07 Jan 2009 08:59:17 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.7 by: Abhay http://www.thehindulife.com/blogs/2006/11/03/why-be-a-vegetarian/#comment-335 Thu, 30 Aug 2007 20:23:39 +0000 http://www.thehindulife.com/blogs/2006/11/03/why-be-a-vegetarian/#comment-335 I feel that even on a level of practicality, the vedic lifestyle is the topmost. People fail to realize that vedic lifestyle does not only promote spiritual health. On a level of material health and prosperity, the vedic lifestyle is most beneficial. This includes having a vegetarian diet, as well as abstaining from intoxication, gambling and illicit sex. The fact that these benefits come does is not, or should not seem surprising. For it seems logical and is stated in the vedas, that one must be physically comfortable, mentally stable, and emotionally strong to advance in spirituality most effectively. Just wanted to add my two cents. I feel that even on a level of practicality, the vedic lifestyle is the topmost. People fail to realize that vedic lifestyle does not only promote spiritual health.

Since you represent hindu life, the concept that impresses most in Hinduism is the concept of Svadharrma or one's vocation in life as it has to do with a majority of waking hours. If they are miserable, life becomes unbearable. Nice writeup but people listen to all this only when there is extreme disharmony and loss of peace.
