What should the future diet be? There are three points by which to judge namely, the hygenic, the moral, and the spiritual.
Hygenic - He needs heat and strength. The first is got from oil, starch, sugar, sweet things and nuts, and strength is got from nitrogenous foods beans, peas, lentils, etc. Meat is not necessary; that is, flesh meat.
Moral - The universe is not for the evolution of man alone; all life should have free play. The killing of animals produces a race of butchers whose feelings become blunted and whose children have little respect for life. The animal when being killed is in a state of antagonism and is sending out antagonistic vibrations which travel all over the universe and affect the weak-minded making them antagonistic. The antagonistic vibrations acting at the time of death affect the flesh of the animal and this being eaten carries the quality of antogonism into the person's body who eats the meat.
