Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Swami has 10000000 times stressed MY LIFE IS MY MESSAGE. Then later He changed it to YOUR LIFE IS MY MESSAGE. Swami never advises anyone to eat meat - there are some subtle messages He has given in discourses - and these are to be understood in life. Vegetarianisn is not something you achieve overnight - you have to distance yourself from meats and stay away - which maybe very difficult - ask your 2" x 2" tongue. Remember, emulate Swami in your life - if He has never taken meat - surely there must be nothing good in meat for the whole of humanity. When I was in the US, Indian Americans wd say have beef JP its not the cow you worship in India - but these are American Cows - which are not worshipped. Meats change the way we look at things - and staying away from meats also changes the way you think / behave / visualize. Sai Ram - Be Happy JP PS: Why be a vegetarian - ask again. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` Ashitha Juglal wrote: Om Sai ram Thank you very much for the book Sathyam Shivam Sundaram on the net, which I printed started enjoying reading it, but, however I came across one of the paragraph please advise on this where it state that Sai Baba as a growing child will not go to any place where meat is prepared and also refused to eat it I'm a Sai devotee and I love Sai Baba and only fast on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays and I do eat meat on the rest of the days How does this effect me spiritually, will our wonderful Sai Baba be with me all the time?

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Sai Ram, dear Jatindar Shad, Thanking you for your message below. Being vegetarian for many years, due to the immense cruelty to Baba's creatures, I was so grateful to be drawn into the Sai Fold and know that Swami admonishes us to not eat animals. Imagine my surprise when many would tell me that 'Swami doesn't really mean that'! Beloved Lord Sai tells us that the animals are not here for us to slaughter and eat, but rather they are here for their own outworking (poorly paraphrased from Swami, I apologize!) May all be infinitely blessed by the Sacred Nama of Sai!
