Humans eating animals leads to humans eating humans. Respecting the commandment, “thou shalt not kill” across the board of sentient beings is true spirituality, preserving the order of Creation vs destroying it.
DF, please feel free to help others on this post understand this. Because there seems to be alot of people who think carrots experience suffering like humans.
SD, off the top of my head, so too speak, folks are addicted to meat as a substitution for creating with God, and as a result justify killing sentient beings (which ends/”resets” at humans eating humans) with the concept that all consumption of the Self is part of “the separation”. They are simply ignorant regarding the eternal order of (Self) Creation which goes like this: the mineral kingdom is torn apart (into soil and atmosphere etc) to serve the building up of the vegetable kingdom, the vegetable kingdom is torn apart to serve the building of the animal kingdom, and the animal kingdom builds up and tears apart the vegetable kingdom to keep the whole cycle going.
Yes, animals also tear each other’s bodies apart, but at the proper time in the cycle (close to death/life, to repeat the cycle). The animals, along with Man, are ultimately gardeners, each playing their parts in the building up and tearing down of the kingdoms below.
Man, as a knowing co-creator having dominion understands intuitively (through the Voice for God or “The Holy Spirit” not thru the senses) this universal order and protects it in order to eternally create with God.
Many there are a spiritual teacher who is wholly sensed based in their thinking and doesn’t understand/intuit/hear the Voice regarding the order of Creation (intuition being masked by addiction), and who is actually playing a part in the miscreation of a nightmare world of pain and suffering via killing and eating one’s fellow Gardners. This ignorance is what must be forgiven and alleviated through teaching by the those who know the true meaning of dominion, otherwise the temptation to react to the violence of miscreating with more violence is insurmountable.
