Acharya Prashant explains that there is a direct and inseparable link between the dairy, leather, and meat industries. He points out that the leather used for shoes, belts, and wallets comes from the same cattle that are exploited for milk. He highlights the cruelty involved in the dairy industry, describing the forced impregnation of female mammals as a form of extreme violence and noting that male calves are often discarded or slaughtered for soft leather because they have no utility in milk production. He asserts that milk is not a vegetarian product and that its consumption is a primary driver of the leather and meat economies. Furthermore, Acharya Prashant discusses the ecological impact of animal agriculture, linking it directly to climate change and deforestation. He explains that a vast majority of global grain production is used to feed livestock, which requires clearing jungles and leads to the extinction of numerous species through habitat loss. He argues that these facts are often hidden from the public by powerful industries and governments. Regarding the struggle for non-violence, he advises that one should never draw a fixed line but should continuously challenge the body's compulsions and push for higher standards of compassion. He also addresses the domestication of animals, suggesting that even for pets, vegan alternatives should be used for nourishment, and that animals should ideally live in their natural habitats rather than being domesticated for human pleasure.
