we would need to have Sanmarga oriented moral stories like this one especially for children. This type of thing will greatly reach children. I have seen a post by this author R.Venkat in tamil but looking for it, anyone knows whereabouts? something titled like Muyalum amaiyum story.... I kindly request author Thiru R.Venkat to continue post further like this one.

try to look at this from their(non vegetarian) point of view. they may never have heard of vallalar and his principals of jeevakarunium. they feel that god made other animals for their consumption. they will not understand that that animal is another life. and that they dont have the right to take its life.
what about christians and muslims. in these religion vegetarianism is not preached at all.
i also know of member of the sanmarga where their children or spouse are non followers. they rest of the family members are still consuming meat. sometimes these sanmargis are preparing these dishes for the other family members.
i feel its not so much self centeredness. its just ignorance.
what do u all think.
