Eating meat and the whole jazz around it. Was Sacrificing an act of love?

[vonkrankenhaus]

Humans are omnivores.

 

But, let's say we are looking for something to eat in a natural environment.

 

Do we first try to eat the thing that runs away?

I mean, do we chase that? Or do we try first with something that doesn't run away at the sight of us?

 

When we eat an animal, that animal is dead and will never reproduce again.

When we, or any animal, eat the seeds of a plant, what happens?

 

Pooping of seeds.

Seed is on ground, in "fertilizer".

Is this not how many plants are naturally propagated?

 

So we can become part of the process of Life, or we can end that process.

 

And when we eat an animal that eats animals, what was that first animal made of?

Plants.

 

We enact the process going from plant to animal in our own system.
This is a miniature of our evolution.

Plant evolution drives animal evolution.

Change in environment = change in plants.

Change in plants = change in animals.

 

If we use the animal as a "middleman", we must first denature the proteins of animal into more basic elements such as are obtained from eating plants - like the animal did in the first place.

 

Parts of this we cannot break down.

These cells are constructed as animal and not human.

Our immune system must eliminate them.

But people eat too many, and the body starts to "overflow".

 

Resulting in body odor, acne, huge fat people, excema, mucus, cysts, tumors, etc.

 

There is a lot of that going on.

I have posted this already in a reply to another thread but I want to create this as an entire topic.

 

What is your standing towards eating meat? And I want you to be fully honest with yourselves and not rely on your transformation that occured inside you after you have watched certain dramatized media. Recall if your transformation was genuinely coming from yourself or from external information. I personally was influenced throught outside means. It did not grow in my own being and realization.

 

Meat tastes wonderful, what can I say? I am not "a" vegetarian or vegan, I mostly eat fruit and vegetables and nuts and seeds. But still I recall everything about meat. Would I come across the information that all animals are here to serve us on our path to enlightenment and that it is a great option to eat meat, especially that our bodies can digest it well, I would eat it again. But as you can see, as stupid as it sounds, you might say the same thing to yourself: All of this was not personal experience. So chances are huge that eating meat will occur again.

 

Honestly? How many individuals including myself stopped eating meat because of external information? I never had digestion issues myself and I never had any other problems in my body eating it. Not a single one. I had lower blood pressure when I was eating Red meat. Not high, as you should get. All of it started by the media and how it put it, the slaughtering off masses and the theory about animal empathy, showing cruel pictures. Then stories about actually killing an animal yourself, how it feels.

 

Surely I was barely eating fastfood. Until a point years back I compeltely stopped it. My whole family spend most interest in buying the most precious meat around. Meaning from farmers they know personally, animals they could see with their own eyes and how they were treated. You would call it grass fed beef, I believe. From free-roaming animals from a farm on a countryside. So we never ate negative emotions stored in those animals other than the realizations of those animal families, obviously knowing that they all are ending up being eaten, but until then they enjoy a comfortable life. You saw no desperation in the eyes of those animals. "Killing" happened through a quick tase.

 

Then you have the word killing. Killing in terms of taking life away. In a cruel way. You cant ever take life away since life always is everywhere. That being, you "killed" is just then roaming around in an energetic form respawning in the next moment as it's next desired creation. It is a soul like you and me. The soul itself does not care about being killed, because it is an infinite being that can never die nor be born. Then you do not "kill" a being in a cruel way and you do not rehash said cruel way of "ending" a life.

 

And there we had sacrifice all over the world. Sacrifice was a noble action. I can guarantee you that sacrifice was an act of love. How about you "kill" an animal out of love? To enjoy his flesh. Yes, from our restricted mind, our system barely filled with love if we not cultivate or create that love in this reality, it sounds absurd. Sacrificing animals instead of "killing" them might be eating meat 2.0 before we ultimately realize that we just consume various forms of light that are purer.

 

When I was eating meat a while ago, I was giving a prayer, like I do regularly before eating, but this time in an extraordinary way for giving my thank to that being, shortening it's time here and all the experience it could have gathered by serving me in this way of enjoying it's body.

 

So all the drama, starts here in the physical form. And why is that? Mostly through misconception, fantasy or taking on other ones belief. And how often do we do the latter? I truly want to see the other, infinite side. I can tell you that I am literally fed up with all this drama and misconception and I want to have a clear picture of what "karma" really is, if it even exists or maybe it is just another religious instrument of chastisement.

 

As you can see I do not want you to eat meat (again) I want you to be honest with your Self in terms of if you simply adapted other individuals beliefs of what is right or if it grew in your own being, adding to your own realization of your True Self

 

PS: Is there the theory of karma in Taoism?

I stopped eating meat after being initiated by my teacher. It was not voluntary. One day I was eating meat. After initiation, two days into it, I started feeling sick looking at meat. I couldn't bear to look at it even, let alone eat it. Still don't eat it. 

 

 

I do eat seafood though, albeit sparingly. Also feeling inclined to stop eating seafood as well.
