I was a meat-eater for 47 years until last year. I loved meat and always
looked forward to my favourite meal of chicken vindaloo. then one day.......
I was eating my favourite dish when suddenly the site of the pieces of
chicken started to disturb me. I felt a great surge of compassion - not
intellectual or emotional but as a stream of energy flowing into me. I
started to cry out loud in the
restaurant and silently asked forgiveness from all the animals that I had
eaten and thanked them for giving their life so that I might live.
My point? I think is that "intellectuallizing" about vegetarianism is not
what its about. It's about compassion - not emotional sentimentality but
TRUE compassion. So don't worry about it ! When its time for you to stop
eating meat
you'll KNOW !!!!
Tom.
