Hare Krishna. Since u are a vegetarian I beg you to become a devotee of lord Krishna. It's so logical that whites and blacks Christians are becoming devotees of lord Krishna after reading the bible and not getting answers. If u are a first time reader plse read from chapter two.
My dear friend…I am a Seventh-Day Adventist Christian. The denomination that I belong to believes strongly that Human beings honor guard by keeping their bodies healthy. Therefore, most members of my church are Vegan/Vegetarian. We also practice many other health principles, as discovered in the acronym for healthy living NEWSTART (Nutrition, Exercise, Water, Sunshine, Temperance, Air, Rest, Trust in God) Your lesson was absolutely amazing to me, because it shows me that the Creator is using Godly people of every nation, tongue, and tribe to teach the principles of Holy living in these last days of Earths history. Very Powerful lesson!! Thank You for allowing God to use you. I was Blessed by your lesson!
In the name of Allah, most gracious most merciful; these are the words I say before I Eat. Hamdilllah. Been vegan for 2 months now. Love this channel and all the blessings along with it. Thank you Swamiji!
I am a Muslim.As a Muslim,I used to do eat cow based meat a lot during the occasion of any happy things. Even,during the religion based festivals I used to eat cow based meat all the times.The meat I used to do consume as a food which was full of different kinds of spices.The meat which was eaten by me was fully spicy from taste prospective. But,after earning the knowledge which you have provided about it he negative impact of it,I have given up eating the meat of each and every animals in the world.Even,today I have made the promise that I don't even look for any kind of dishes to eat which are fully made of non vegetarian kinds of things.I have boycotted the meat from from my food menu list and I have added a lot of fresh vegetables in the same list of my food menu. A lot of vegetables are replaced by the meat based food items from the prospective of good taste by my own family members recently.But,I have changed the food menu of mine and I have made sure that there would stay any kind of meat item available at all. I have removed the meat item from my food menu list since I don't care about whether the food is tasty or not tasty.I do care about only one thing about this.And,this is whether the food is healthy for me and how much food value I have on this.Considering that particular thing I have made my daily food menu list. My food having rule is as simple as that I just need to consume good food which are healthy and I have yo boycott eating the bad food which are fully unhealthy for me.Taste is fully an irrelevant issue for the matter.Even,the theory about it is scientifically proven and since science has approved it greatly so I have no objection to do follow the issue and I am fully acceptable to embrace the policy regarding the food issue. So,thanks to Guruji for teaching me such an incredible thing on food items and I for thing by earning the knowledge my wisdom will be increased a lot and by applying it I do strongly believe that I can bring some positive changes in my mental and physical health about it.Thanks a lot from the bottom of my mind.May you live long and keep sharing such effective things to us.Today,although I am a Muslim from religious prospective but I am a great disciple of yours.
Im so proud of you. You are intelligent and making that choice has displayed your intelligence. Im vegetarian and I love animals. God created animals and it is their right to life and NOT our authority to take that life. Much reapect from South Africa ☺
I have stopped eating meat gradually. And it came so naturally, I feel like whole my live i have been forcing myself to do it. I can see my mum is struggling as well, she eats meat, because of it is culturally rooted in Poland. But even if she makes meal for the family she will have piece of meat size of small finger, if at all. I went step father and decided to cut myself from cultural way of thinking that is common in my country. I eat what makes me happy. I am vegan.
Or u can be vegetarian too 🙂. If in your country they treat cows and buffaloes as their family members... In india ppl say we worship cows.. But thats not true, we respect cow and farmers treat their cattle as their family, hence they dont ue such doping methods to increase milk production... U can visit any stable.. I guarantee a normal farmer would never use doping to increase milk production
Feeling blessed to be a Vegetarian, I have been a Vegetarian from last 17 years, even my Son who is 16 years old is vegetarian, and even my Wife is vegetarian.❤️🚩
I am a Muslim and as we know we live and breathe in non veg food but after researching for months I had decided to give up meat from the past 6 months and these are the benefits I observed- 1. State of mind is always calm, I would get angry quickly and act impulsively before, now I'm always in a state of calmness. 2. Improvement in health- I started to notice less inflammation in my body, used to feel lethargic and sleepy sluggish whenever I had a non vegetarian meal but now I feel active after every meal. 3. Improve digestion- Eating meals in the right proportion helped alot in digestion, earlier I used to over feed and felt digestion gas, bloating or even constipated, all that is gone now. 4. Eating fresh- Unlike non veg, vegetables cannot be stored for long in freezer and will spoil easily in 2-3 days, which helped in always eating fresh foods that are very beneficial to health 5. Guilty/ Ethical aspect- Although poultry are animals that are grown specifically to eat, I would still feel guilty eating them before, would you ever eat a human? Obviously not as it is a living being, animals are also living beings, then why should we eat them ? Overall my life has changed since I became a vegetarian and hope that other people realise the benefits for the sake of their own health
God has made it clear in the Bible and Quran that you do not eat meat that is sick. It must willingly give up it's life. Otherwise it is not in favor of the LORD our mighty creator. No Lobster or shrimp. They are the roaches of the ocean.
Amazing, I've been vegetarian my whole life as I've been brought up that way, and even as an adult choose to remain so due to my beliefs of every living creature possessing a soul. I had no idea consuming meat increased your chances of developing cancer tho😱. I was aware of the different types of food affecting us differently and belonging to different gunas after having read/listened to the Bhagavad-Gita. Also love how plants have a consciousness. I do enjoy talking to the house plants my mother grows, as well as the plants in our garden or random trees outside. If I could choose, I'd like to be a tree in my next life, always giving back to the world and being so resilient. Thank you for sharing this Swamiji. Jay Shree Krishna 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I could listen to your lectures all day everyday so profound yet full of wisdom and knowledge thanks I needed to hear and practice this for health reasons
I’m really trying to make the change. I have days when I don’t eat meat or anything that comes from animals. Then there are days when I eat lean meat. I’m making a conscious effort to make a change in my diet. I feel better when I don’t eat meat.
I have experienced many benefits since going vegetarian, better skin and healthier hair to name 2, but 2 that I did not expect is less body odour, and no more acid reflux issues that the doctor gave me medication to fix 😃 I didn't take the medicine and went plant based and I can't remember the last time I go acid reflux!

@@sreekumar.s 😂 why does mody want everyone to be vegetarians bro? And these gurus follow these principles and follow from even before modi's existence
@@johnpost2452 as a vegan I agree with you 100%. But I believe in India they have a different connection with cows and the dairy they get from cows, not in all situations of course. I have tried to reconcile gurus and many Buddhists condoning milk, ghee and such and try not to judge because I don’t live in a country where dairy may be essential and cows have a long and happy life unlike our factory farms and dairy industry
3 years of being vegetarian.. i feel more relaxed, more calm , i used to be an irritated and brat like child but now i am more spiritual , calm there is whole change in my behaviour and soon after leaving non veg i got the opportunity to read HOLY BOOK BHAGVAT GITA and find my self more connected to god now i feel things more deeply around me even if its fallen leaves on the road .if i step on them by mistake also i say sorry to them and pick them up and keep them somewhere where no one again steps on it.

I 'am not Hindu in Religion, but Hindu Scripture is very reasonable as to why human should never to consume meat. Thank you once again for this lesson. I love this because of the explaination or the Rational behind why meat must not be eaten by human. Like for instance when about to butcher an animal for food, the animal undergo stressful before it dies. That state of stress will transfer into the human who eats. Thank You so much. I have been trying to tell this to relatives friends, and acquaintances, but they dont believe me and think its laughable. So I 'am going to share this program to them for their enlightenment. Anyway just subscribe in your channel.
In the time of lord Shree Krishna, there were no cows being artificially inseminated, their small little calves were not taken from their mother, holy cows were not forced by injection to produce more milk, they were not used as business or factory machines. Nowadays, all these things are happening and humans are being cruel to these holy cows. Male calves and cows who cannot produce milk after a certain age are sent to slaughterhouses for beef and leather. That is really very bad. Even dairy products should not be considered as satvic, as they come from torture. Being "vegan" is far better than being vegetarian.
V Pala. Maybe you didn't listen to the entire lecture or you misunderstood but eating plants is also considered to be a "sin". Abusing the cow, I agree, but Mother Cow is Mother Earth personified so harming Mother Earth is just as bad. What solutions do vegans offer in this respect without referring to the Vedic literatures and which is purely vegan philosophy in essence?
V Pala. Milk and milk products from temple cows are sattvic. No violence involved. What solutions do vegans offer in respect to harvesting food crops without injuring the local wildlife that live in these crops? I also do not see vegans protesting near Space Centres, or Nuclear power plants etc where a great deal of pollution is slowly killing Mother Earth ( Mother Cow ) Why?
Very nice video from Swami Ji. 'Consuming Alcohol' is also a Tamsik. Consumption of 'Tamsik items' increases anger, lust, quarrelsome etc. in one's life & often lead to violence etc. We have a complete chapter dedicated on Food in 'Shri Bhagvad Geeta'. Hare Krishna Hare Rama
I was at the Jain Gommateshwara statue of Bahubali in Shravanabelagola, had a lovely conversation with the guide, I told him about the Australian philosophy of work to live not live to work and he replied that they had a similar saying of eat to live, don't live to eat, I think both are true wisdoms.
its been 4 years since I have given up meat and 1 year giving up eggs, my mind is much much light what it used to be then. I am feeling calm & focussed:)
Guruji why I have not received these teachings early in the youth. A lot of my doubts and confusions regarding the Almighty are being cleared with guruji's teachings
Thanks I'm a vegetarian but have been eating eggs almost everyday because they are so full of nutrition but now after your talk i will stop eggs and i also need to offer up the food to god .thanks Swami.
i am pure vegetarian since 12 years of age and now im 17 and really dont feel same as todays generation even my parent eat non veg thats why i always say them that i am different from them and yes im spritual person

When as a test case, you start eating ONLY vegetarian food, you will observe three things, within a week ... You will feel 1. Lighter, 2. More energetic and 3. Happier always. Try it out for only 7 days.
The way you speak, I feel sense of gratitude to you always.🙏🏻😇 I have a question Swamiji, some people says, sattvik diet shouldn’t contain onion and garlic, but those are also vegetables, then why can’t we have it, please shade some light on this topic, eagerly awaiting.
Hello, according to Sadhguru, onions and garlic should be consumed occasionally and for medicinal uses as they r very strong they may dull the nervous system.
That's because... onion, garlic and a few other vegetables like drumstick, actually act on your body in such a way that they induce biological attraction towards opposite gender, and hence called rajasic food. Satvik diet is prescribed during religious fasting, certain pooja and a few more occasions so that the satvik foods keep our minds focused on God as these foods don't induce biological attraction. Satvik foods are easy and light to digest, so more energy of the body and brain can be used for devotion. Garlic, onion and other Rajasic foods, though they are vegetables, cannot be a part of satvic diet, right? Hope my answer helped you.
I lobe this, I would just add the dairy to the mode of ignorance foods. Dairy is designed for the baby calf. All mammals need their mother's milk only and for a short period of time until weaning.
@@rduggi every dairy farm is a local dairy farm to someone, just avoid cows milk. all animal agriculture footage is full of abuse and hate, dont contribute to animal abuse.
@@rduggi that's not the kind of dairy the veda meant. if we are talking about the modern mass farming then of course we should stay away from it. but the milk that's obtained thru traditional cow farming is okay. it is said the cow produced more than enough milk for her calf and human
From my point of view , most of the you-tubers should make videos in order to encourage people to become vegetarian.... Idk how people hurt animals and eat them in the name of protein... animals also have emotions like us , they also feel the pain..but they can’t speak for themselves...please don’t hurt them , it’s my humble request stop eating meat and start feeding animals... god bless you all

Before this I can't understand why I stop eating meat without proper reason and I can't answer my parents for reason to be vegetarian. After this : I can answer the reason in my thoughts
If Modi explain u this u cannot accept it... so they just ordered...people like guru's explains normally humans accept..
Sadhguru is a deepstate shill he encourages Indian to take the Depopulation Jab and supports the kill gates Foundation. I have been fooled👹
@@sreekumar.s 😂 why does mody want everyone to be vegetarians bro? And these gurus follow these principles and follow from even before modi's existence
This guy is wrong tho. Dairy is bad
@@johnpost2452 as a vegan I agree with you 100%. But I believe in India they have a different connection with cows and the dairy they get from cows, not in all situations of course. I have tried to reconcile gurus and many Buddhists condoning milk, ghee and such and try not to judge because I don’t live in a country where dairy may be essential and cows have a long and happy life unlike our factory farms and dairy industry
I was 6 years old when I quit all meat products .... since then I am more inclined towards compassion 🙏 Hare Krishna ⚘💐
3 years of being vegetarian.. i feel more relaxed, more calm , i used to be an irritated and brat like child but now i am more spiritual , calm there is whole change in my behaviour and soon after leaving non veg i got the opportunity to read HOLY BOOK BHAGVAT GITA and find my self more connected to god now i feel things more deeply around me even if its fallen leaves on the road .if i step on them by mistake also i say sorry to them and pick them up and keep them somewhere where no one again steps on it.
His energy is so pure, the end gives me a gussebombs
I have been vegan for 2 years and I feel very different on so many levels. Different good of course.
Very true !
i watch your every videos to learn to speak english like you do... Lovin it 👍
Dhanyawad Swami Ji for enlightening me 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I recently became vegan and I was struggling today. This put me back in alignment. Thank you ☺️
from 4 years i am being vegeterian and i am so satisfied from 4 years..
Started this week, hopefully I can keep going because my body feels great.
The last 10 minutes got me!!!! Amen! 🙏🏽
I was a vegetarian for about 3 yrs and I felt great.It felt like my body was full of energy and I had full complete mind control.Great decision.
I am a pescatarian I feel amazing my energy is way up 🙏🏾🙏🏾‼️ Mind is clear skin etc...
same here. I'll never go back eating meat.........it was so destructive for my body and mind.
Hare Krishna. Now that you both are vegetarians I beg you to become a devotee of lord Krishna and plse read the bhagavat gita from chapter two if you are a first time reader. It's so logical that whites and blacks Christians are becoming devotees of lord Krishna after reading the bible and not getting answers.
@@asoganmoodley610
Does being a devotee of krishna allow me to continue in my career (medical field)?
Also what is the purpose of being a devotee?
Is it insufficient to follow the philosophy?
Also what is the difference from a dharmic perspective of being a devotee to jesus christ (not modern christian) and devotee of Krishna?
Thank you in advance
I am slowly trying to get pascatarian! I will start monday for a month and see how i feel, I am so looking for more energy.. I sleep alot and excersise alot but eat a lot of
Meat also and I am sooo tired like everytime I don’t want to go out of the bed most of
The time
45 days in as a pescatarian...struggling with choices of food. No significant changes yet !
I 'am not Hindu in Religion, but Hindu Scripture is very reasonable as to why human should never to consume meat. Thank you once again for this lesson. I love this because of the explaination or the Rational behind why meat must not be eaten by human. Like for instance when about to butcher an animal for food, the animal undergo stressful before it dies. That state of stress will transfer into the human who eats. Thank You so much. I have been trying to tell this to relatives friends, and acquaintances, but they dont believe me and think its laughable. So I 'am going to share this program to them for their enlightenment. Anyway just subscribe in your channel.
In the time of lord Shree Krishna, there were no cows being artificially inseminated, their small little calves were not taken from their mother, holy cows were not forced by injection to produce more milk, they were not used as business or factory machines. Nowadays, all these things are happening and humans are being cruel to these holy cows. Male calves and cows who cannot produce milk after a certain age are sent to slaughterhouses for beef and leather. That is really very bad. Even dairy products should not be considered as satvic, as they come from torture. Being "vegan" is far better than being vegetarian.
I don't know but not in my locality..I my locality....our calves are in a very good condition with her mother cow😊😊
Yes but domestic cattle milk you can use ..after giving milk to thier calf remaining milk we can use
Stay safe 😷✨
V Pala. Maybe you didn't listen to the entire lecture or you misunderstood but eating plants is also considered to be a "sin". Abusing the cow, I agree, but Mother Cow is Mother Earth personified so harming Mother Earth is just as bad. What solutions do vegans offer in this respect without referring to the Vedic literatures and which is purely vegan philosophy in essence?
V Pala. Milk and milk products from temple cows are sattvic. No violence involved. What solutions do vegans offer in respect to harvesting food crops without injuring the local wildlife that live in these crops? I also do not see vegans protesting near Space Centres, or Nuclear power plants etc where a great deal of pollution is slowly killing Mother Earth ( Mother Cow ) Why?
As a transitioning vegetarian this was really helpful
Very nice video from Swami Ji.
'Consuming Alcohol' is also a Tamsik.
Consumption of 'Tamsik items' increases anger, lust, quarrelsome etc. in one's life & often lead to violence etc.
We have a complete chapter dedicated on Food in 'Shri Bhagvad Geeta'.
Hare Krishna Hare Rama
Guruji is giving the knowledge of bhawat gita in his every video in a great manner thanks guruji 🙏🙏
The lightness (physical, mental and spiritual) after going meatless is unbelievable !
Try explaining this to a meat lover…..is like talking about ghosts :))
On day 2 of vegetarianism. I am really hoping I will make it. My children are vegetarians already.
Thanks so much for this 🙏🏼
Thanks For GIVING Such Precious Knowledge Guru Ji
Thank you very much Bhagvad Gita 🙏🙏🙏...
Your voice and how you speak is so peaceful🙏🏾😇
I was at the Jain Gommateshwara statue of Bahubali in Shravanabelagola, had a lovely conversation with the guide, I told him about the Australian philosophy of work to live not live to work and he replied that they had a similar saying of eat to live, don't live to eat, I think both are true wisdoms.
its been 4 years since I have given up meat and 1 year giving up eggs, my mind is much much light what it used to be then. I am feeling calm & focussed:)
Guruji why I have not received these teachings early in the youth. A lot of my doubts and confusions regarding the Almighty are being cleared with guruji's teachings
Oh my goodness I enjoyed every minute of this! Thank you for clarity
Thanks I'm a vegetarian but have been eating eggs almost everyday because they are so full of nutrition but now after your talk i will stop eggs and i also need to offer up the food to god .thanks Swami.
Superb swamiji! I am making it a habit to watch a video of yours whenever I am free. Thank you for giving us the knowledge!
Lots and lots of thanks to you Radhe. Now I got the solution to get rid of the anger. 🙏🙏🙏 Radhe radhe🙏🙏🙏🙏
❤️❤️
i am pure vegetarian since 12 years of age and now im 17 and really dont feel same as todays generation even my parent eat non veg thats why i always say them that i am different from them and yes im spritual person
Hare Krishna. I beg you to become a devotee of lord Krishna and read the bhagavat gita from chapter two if u are a first time reader.
@@asoganmoodley610 I don't read bhagwat geeta yet but in future I will surely read and I use to listen some lessons from bhagwat geeta for me maa adi shakti bhagwan narayan and mahadev all are equal so I'm on the lotus feet of all of them
Can we friends vaishu
When as a test case, you start eating ONLY vegetarian food, you will observe three things, within a week ... You will feel 1. Lighter, 2. More energetic and 3. Happier always. Try it out for only 7 days.
The way you speak, I feel sense of gratitude to you always.🙏🏻😇 I have a question Swamiji, some people says, sattvik diet shouldn’t contain onion and garlic, but those are also vegetables, then why can’t we have it, please shade some light on this topic, eagerly awaiting.
Hello, according to Sadhguru, onions and garlic should be consumed occasionally and for medicinal uses as they r very strong they may dull the nervous system.
That's because... onion, garlic and a few other vegetables like drumstick, actually act on your body in such a way that they induce biological attraction towards opposite gender, and hence called rajasic food.
Satvik diet is prescribed during religious fasting, certain pooja and a few more occasions so that the satvik foods keep our minds focused on God as these foods don't induce biological attraction. Satvik foods are easy and light to digest, so more energy of the body and brain can be used for devotion.
Garlic, onion and other Rajasic foods, though they are vegetables, cannot be a part of satvic diet, right? Hope my answer helped you.
Wonderful message to follow. God bless him.
I lobe this, I would just add the dairy to the mode of ignorance foods. Dairy is designed for the baby calf. All mammals need their mother's milk only and for a short period of time until weaning.
I agree with you on this. Just research on how milk is made, trace the path from big dairy farms to small local farmers, it will open your eyes
@@rduggi every dairy farm is a local dairy farm to someone, just avoid cows milk. all animal agriculture footage is full of abuse and hate, dont contribute to animal abuse.
@@rduggi that's not the kind of dairy the veda meant. if we are talking about the modern mass farming then of course we should stay away from it. but the milk that's obtained thru traditional cow farming is okay. it is said the cow produced more than enough milk for her calf and human
@@nanasshi0711 I've heard that also
Perfectly said
Thanks you guruji, I just started a new journey today onwards after watching this.
From my point of view , most of the you-tubers should make videos in order to encourage people to become vegetarian.... Idk how people hurt animals and eat them in the name of protein... animals also have emotions like us , they also feel the pain..but they can’t speak for themselves...please don’t hurt them , it’s my humble request stop eating meat and start feeding animals... god bless you all
Wow, I’m just coming to this understanding and I’m all in!
After you start eating the plant based foods , You will see by yourself 💐💐😊🙏 Hare Krishna ⚘
10 aut of 10. Every body diferent, I Am that I Am, You are who you Are. Mi DNA is mine,yours is yours, .Love to all.❤💯✌
