Soybean vs soybean oil

Srila Prabhupada said that ghee is for the inside and oil is for the
outside.

He said that if we cooked with ghee the eaters would give up meat eating.

One devotees father, who is a big scientist, did a study and found that ghee
is the only oil that humans can digest.

Of course ghee should be used sparingly. Fried foods are not for daily or
high consumption.

The picture of a proper human civilization is indirectly described here. In
a perfect human civilization there must be a class of men fully trained as
perfect brähmaëas. Similarly, there must be kñatriyas to rule the country
very nicely according to the injunctions of the çästras, and there must be
vaiçyas who can protect the cows. The word gävaù indicates that cows should
be given protection. Because the Vedic civilization is lost, cows are not
protected, but instead indiscriminately killed in slaughterhouses. Such are
the acts of demons. Therefore this is a demoniac civilization. The
varëäçrama-dharma mentioned here is essential for human civilization. Unless
there is a brähmaëa to guide, a kñatriya to rule perfectly, and a perfect
vaiçya to produce food and protect the cows, how will people live
peacefully? It is impossible.
