CENTURIES OF INDIVIDUALISM AND COMPETITION HAVE BROUGHT ABOUT TREMENDOUS DESTRUCTION AND ALIENATION. WE NEED TO RE-ESTABLISH TRUE COMMUNICATION–TRUE COMMUNION–WITH OURSELVES, WITH THE EARTH, AND WITH ONE ANOTHER AS CHILDREN OF THE SAME MOTHER. WE NEED MORE THAN NEW TECHNOLOGY TO PROTECT THE PLANET.

Originally posted on Violet’s Veg*n e-Comics: We do our best to inspire people towards veganism but are very careful not to push too hard. We don’t want to frighten people away so we take the gently, gently approach with stories and colourful pictures and poems. But after watching Cowspiracy in full yesterday I…

Buddhism and The Dharma; Compassion: How many more must die? — Great Middle Way
If you buy the flesh, the animal was killed specifically for you. Who else is the “beneficiary”? And you, in buying the flesh, have placed an order for another animal to be slaughtered, for you or the next customer. Sell stock, restock. Does anyone not understand the rudiments of commerce, everywhere and at all times? […]
GoodnightNina.
