The use of animal products across industries is not a matter of necessity but of habit, tradition, and historical indifference. While modern technology has advanced enough to create alternatives, such as synthetic racket strings, the shift is slow because humanity has not yet felt a strong enough collective urgency to change. The root cause of all this cruelty, according to Acharya Ji, is not individual wickedness but a fundamental lack of self-awareness in human beings. Since people do not truly know who they are, they cannot know their right relationship with other species and the environment. A fragmented or sectoral approach, such as saving one animal or boycotting one product, may bring personal satisfaction but does little to address the larger problem. Real and lasting change can only come when human consciousness rises and ego diminishes, because it is ignorance at the deepest level that allows cruelty to persist across all domains of life. ➖➖➖➖➖➖ 🎧 Listen to #AcharyaPrashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3f0KFwe...
