Acharya Prashant addresses the conflict between providing a nutritionally balanced diet for children and the ethical commitment to veganism. He explains that modern humans are neither purely natural beings living by nature nor fully realized saints living by the heart. Instead, contemporary man is a product of the intellect and the industrialized world. Since the intellect is the current center of human existence, it must be surrendered to the service of truth and compassion. He argues that if we live in an artificial world of houses, clothes, and schools, we should not reject veganism or nutritional supplements on the grounds that they are unnatural. He clarifies that spirituality is not about returning to nature but about transcending it. While animals live by nature and saints live by the soul, modern man must use his intellect to solve the problems created by the mind. He encourages the use of technology and scientific research to produce essential nutrients like protein and vitamin B12 through non-exploitative, factory-produced means. He suggests that even artificial meat is a compassionate solution if it prevents the slaughter of animals. Ultimately, he emphasizes that veganism should be chosen not because it is natural, but because it arises from compassion, and the intellect should be devoted to serving this higher truth.
