I would like to suggest that vegetarianism is in many ways a 'halfway house'. Surely anyone concerned about practicing non-violence should investigate veganism rather than vegetarianism. If one consumes milk and other dairy products, one is complicit in the killing of animals just as if one is consuming meat: cows don't naturally produce milk all year round - in order to force them to do so, they are kept permanently pregnant and the endless calves they produce are killed. (This is without mentioning the appalling conditions the mother cows are kept in) In my opinion veganism should be the route for those following Ahimsa. Vegetarianism might be ok for people who simply don't want to eat meat, but for those who don't want killing on their conscience surely veganism is the logical way.

Perhaps that is something for the future. Currently, I do not have the time or resources. However, ultimately, I might put some of best articles in an edited book or e-book form. Thank you for taking the time to make the suggestion. Namaste, Harsha Dear Ramakrishna-ji:

I think it will be good if these articles are also put in a well formatted files, that are ready for printing. This could be done either through a "print this article" link or a having a PDF link to that article. Either of these would help people can print these and use it offline for their satsanghs.
