Acharya Prashant begins by stating his support for meat alternatives, asserting that anything that saves an animal's life is acceptable, whether it be lab-grown meat, soya chunks, or other substitutes. He emphasizes that any option that saves a poor animal from the farm and the knife is welcome. He believes that dropping meat is not as difficult as it may seem, noting that his organization has helped tens of thousands of people give up meat, with about half of them also giving up dairy. He observes that this change is often lasting, as people who quit meat years ago show no inclination to revert. The speaker argues that people can be persuaded to stop eating meat if they are given a strong enough reason. He illustrates this by pointing out that religious beliefs already lead large populations to abstain from certain types of meat, such as pork for Muslims or beef for Hindus. This demonstrates that when a strong reason is present, people are capable of changing their habits. He suggests that what is currently missing is the right reason, which needs to be communicated to the population by someone with clarity, a powerful voice, and conviction. He expresses faith in the intrinsic goodness of every person, believing that despite pitiable or monstrous behavior, the potential for goodness remains within everyone. Regarding the future of veganism, Acharya Prashant outlines two possible trajectories. The first is that it continues on its current path, remaining a foreign concept, a fad for the elite, which is how the general public often perceives it. The second, more hopeful trajectory involves connecting veganism to the same spiritual forces that made India a largely vegetarian country. He posits that these are the forces that must be respected and channeled to make India vegan as well. He elaborates that veganism is the logical and spiritual culmination of vegetarianism. The core feeling behind vegetarianism is the desire not to harm or kill an animal. This same feeling, when fully expressed, leads to veganism, because milking an animal is also harmful and prepares the ground for its eventual slaughter. Therefore, he advises that vegetarianism should be extended into veganism. He criticizes the adversarial stance some vegans take towards vegetarians, suggesting that vegetarianism should not be seen as an enemy but as a work in progress, with veganism being its final, spiritualized outcome. He believes that if the concept is explained in this way, people will understand and be more receptive.
