Hey Jack, next time you see the Dalai Lama give him this message. The sentient beings he should focus most on are the baby sheep, his hosts slaughter for him because they know he loves to eat them. How do spiritual leaders profess this "all sentient beings have value" crap when almost all of them eat animals raised on factory farms. To be sure, becoming vegan is a hell of a lot easier than becoming whatever you have become, yet somehow it's a bridge to far for you all. I have been an ethical vegan for 25 years,(it was so much easier than meditation). I just don't get it, seems pretty simple; having animals exploited and killed at an early age simply because one likes the taste of their flesh, is not being kind to them, surely all of you see this. No need to admit that eating them is more important than respecting them, just simply exclude them from your teachings, stop the bull shit; so you're not as holy or kind as you profess to be, most of your followers eat animals as well, they aren't going to think any less of you, they are just people, most of whom don't hold themselves up as being super WOKE, as you do. For the record, I think you, Joseph, Sharon and others are super, all are helping me a great deal, I don't care what you eat, I was just a bit shocked, I assumed you were all vegan from your lectures. Strange world we live in, no?

Jacks teachings, along with Ram Dass's have helped me through countless difficult times in life. They are true spiritual teachers of the deepest kind.
Love this passage 30:38
