There are infinite varieties of living organisms
1) pulsating with life activities 2) lying dormant 3) performing specialized function food consumed depends on adaptation of the anatomy of particular species & ecology In order to live or sustain life we have to eat nutritive food which cause least violence i.e plant life is acceptable. Food which effects our body i.e one excites physically & mentally or imparts which produce undesirable effect should be avoided e.g wine tobacco. If food is not obtained by destroying life, but after eating it pushes one to irrational or destructive behavior it should be considered worst. killing for ones own benefit is certainly violence & should not be committed. Man sees through glasses of selfishness is prone to selfishness who totally neglects others well being. Who are ready to trample on it & don't hesitate to exploit, suppress, molest, or inflicting pain to others. He possesses brutal & demonical attitude. We are inhabitants of same planet, share common solar system, All being affected by interplanetary relation. Man has to understand his relation with other living beings & leave in harmony with them.
