Ahimsa Dharma

“I myself may not be a very strict vegetarian, but I understand the ideal. 

The ideal is not to eat flesh, not to injure any being, for all animals are my brothers. If you can think of them as your brothers, you have made a little headway towards the brotherhood of all souls, not to speak of the brotherhood of man! That is child's play. ”
― Swami Vivekananda

“Someone who believes in violence and continues causing injury to others can never be peaceful himself.”
― Swami Satchidananda

“Love and compassion for all sentient beings, (human and non human alike) are a necessity. They are the true drivers that make us human. Without them we cannot extend our humanity, our moral progress, to make our world a better place for ALL.”
― Angie karan

“Brahma Yoga helps me recognize the inherited privilege of being human, so I have benevolence for animals, plants, all sentient beings, and minerals. I care for their dignity and use on our shared planet”
― Leo Lourdes
