Today's Thought:

Mystical Potency of Srila Prabhupada's Books
uploaded from Los  Angeles, California USA

The books of His Divine Grace A.C.Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada are the most amazing and comprehensible presentation of the Vedic wisdom ever made available to the human society in the history of the universe. By the divine potency of his books the entire world is being inundated in a tidal wave of bhakti, which will bless the human society for at least 10,000 years. Even now the millions and millions of his books that have been distributed all over the world in so many different languages are having a powerful potency to hold off the debilitating and destabilizing effects of the Age of Kali. The efforts of the world's current political leaders to solve the world's problems are not successful because they do not understand the root cause of all the problems. Instead of solving the problems, their so-called solutions are actually making the situation worse and worse. Therefore we are making this urgent appeal to all of the world's leaders in all spheres of human activity to study, follow, and implement the teachings of Srila Prabhupada as the guiding principle for their lives and for the entire human society. This will bring in a new era of peace and prosperity to the ever more distraught human society.

Answers by Citing the Vedic Version:

Question: Why No Meat Eating in Bhakti Yoga?


Your Grace:

I assisted in your recent 2012 conference last Tuesday night in Rancagua, Chile, and I have several questions. One of them has been very much on my mind: What are the benefits of eating no meat at all for the one who is trying to practice bhakti yoga?

Answer: One Cannot Eat the Children of His Beloved.


Krishna prescribes in the Bhagavad-gita that we should only eat the foods that we first offer to Him. And He also prescribes that we should only offer Him vegetarian foods. Therefore to be a devotee of Krishna means that one cannot eat meat.

It is also a matter of common sense. For those who want to awaken the dormant love of God within their hearts, to give up meat eating is absolutely essential because the animals are God's dear children. How can we love someone when we eat their dear children? It is not possible. If we truly love someone, we will not eat his children. If we love him, we will always respect and honor his children.
