Dear Nitin,
I was very happy to hear from you concerning your efforts to spread the message of vegetarianism. I am pleased to hear today's young people are doing very courageous work in this area. I firmly believe that if we can completely organize the vegetarian society, then easily 100,000 people can be converted every year.
More and more scientists are proving the superiority of the vegetarian diet with facts leading toward the right path for food. The non-vegetarian diet is nutritionally inferior. If we are so concerned about protein, then the soybean is a much better source, In non-vegetarian food there is so much cholesteral, so much poison, negativity and vengefulness. A very subtle destructive current is moving in these foods.
We must train the people. When we are propagating vegetarianism, then we must also teach proper food preparation in making a balanced healthy diet. We must also go to India and educate the people about balanced diet and the bad effects of alcohol and meat and tobacco. Sixty percent of cancer is caused by an imbalanced diet, drinking and smoking.
Since I have been in America I have been happy to have so many converts to vegetarianism. And they are not only eating non-violently, but they are also knowledgable of natural foods systems
Health is a gift of divine law. If one's health is not correct then it is very difficult to reach Perfection. Lord Mahavir experiented with many systems for health of body, mind and soul. Ultimately, when he attained omniscience, he taught that the purpose of life is health, self-realization and samadhi.
Vegetarianism is one of the main policies of non-violence. I offer my good wishes and support in promoting this noble principle. Our main purpose is to create a non-violent society. Non-violence is the way for total salvation and peace. And by spreading the message of vegetarianism we are serving all of mankind.
My blessings are with you, Nitin, and all your sincere workers. You must get success in this noble cause.
With Blessings,
Acharya Sush Acharya Sushil Kumar
