Description

Acharya Prashant discusses the critical link between spirituality and veganism, arguing that the vegan movement often fails in India because it relies on imported Western ideologies rather than spiritual roots. He explains that many young people distance themselves from religion because they mistake exploitative traditions for true spirituality. He clarifies that while traditions are often co-opted by selfish interests, true spirituality involves looking inward to correct animalistic tendencies like greed and consumption. He asserts that when a person becomes truly spiritual, veganism happens naturally as a byproduct of compassion and self-correction.
