  • The Role of Animals in Ancient Human Religion – Part 4


    Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Innana…
    Thus chant the feminine priestesses invoking several deities at once …deities of power riding the lion, bearing weapons, taming the animals around them, shooting bow arrows at birds and deers to kill them, demanding sacrifice of goats, bulls and oxen in their name, to save humans and benefit them…perhaps at times sparing female cows just because cows are raped to produce babies and milk for human consumption – something is clearly not right here.

    We all have proudly narrated the sentiments of the divine feminine across the world, in modern times to assert female liberation. But what about the liberation of the animals in general, not just human animal or females but of all sentient beings as equals? Why do we idolise deities who hunt other animals, and kill them, or to whom animal were ritually sacrificed in history. Male or female, the fact is that we are all sentient like any animal can be, and unlike some others who are carnivores, we humans are aware of and capable of abstinence from murder.

    However different they may seem to be, one thing is common among our ancient deities as described in the previous articles, Part 1 of Wicca and neo-Paganism , Part 2 Power animals and tribal or native religions and Part 3 Kemitic, Mesoamerican and related cultures. The fact that carnivore animals are regarded as smart, special, respomsible, respectable, loved, admired, imitated, powerful, sacred, while the kind ones who do not harm others are regarded as lower beings, slaves, food and sacrificial objects, including human children and women at times. Look at our fascination with cats and dogs for instance. Once the idea that human animal is a carnivore or omnivore who can and should consume other sentient beings just as another unconscious or unevolved beast would, holds foot, we see violence permitted everywhere. Religion or spirituality are rarely exceptional, although the idea of religion and spirituality should ideally be a promotion of moral values or positive behaviors of kindness and love among humankind. On the contrary, religions seem to have become but a historically trendy display of grandeur, power, authority and might of the Stronger over the Weaker ones, the Gods or Lords over the Slaves, the Masters over Servants, the Carnivore or Omnivore over the Non-violent and the Criminal over the Innocent. Deity in such practices of religion and spirituality is rarely anything but the Devil in symbolism.

    GRECO-ROMAN, CELTIC, NORSE AND SEMITIC RELIGIONS

    Omophagia
    Because of the idea of imitating carnivores such as panthers and lions, that were considered sacred to deities such as Zeus and his son Dionysus in proto-Roman religions the ancient practice of spargamos or tearing-apart a live animal such as goat or bull as it cries for mercy in pain, is described along with eating the flesh raw ‘omophagia‘.

    According to Greek legend Dinoysus (connected with Roman deity Bacchus), was son of a mortal lady Selene and Zeus God of Greece (just as Jesus too was born of a mortal woman Mary and God of Israel). His worshippers were called Maenads, humans who tear apart raw flesh of sentient beings just as carnivorous animals do, a violent way of being in ‘communion’ just as Christians, followers of Jesus who consume his body and his blood in rituals at churches, called Mass. Humans have also been similarly devoured in Greek ‘Oprphic’ mysteries involding tearing apart and consuming other human beings by worshippers of Dionysus.

    Satyrs
    The Pan archetype of wildnerness and promiscuity was symbolised by goat-headed deity as they believed goats to be virile. Consuming an animal was seen as a way of imbibing the traits from the animal onto yourself and the sex hungry public certainly desired virility. In noted historical research papers sacrifice of goats is described in honour of Pan in ancient Greek plays called satyrs, which were comedy as well as tragedy being of a goat being dragged as a sacrificial victim to the last rites as he is useless having been used enough for breeding purposes and the ritual suggesting a ‘doing away of the old so that the new can be created’.
    Killing of goats, bulls and other victims this way is a vile spiritual practice or superstition connected with false deities and imaginary empowerment of the person in whose name the sacrifice is conducted and a passing of energy to the consumers.
    The animal, goat or ox is first made to eat something from the god’s altar such as Zeus, and then blamed for the action to justify its stoning, humiliated step by step and then killed as a symbol of punishment of innocent in these violent acts.

    Sacred Trees and Wish Bones
    The bones of the victims since stoneage or paleolithic traditions be hung on sacred trees or in sanctuaries dedicted to deities or offered to gods at times are another exposure of violence stemming from the disgraceful practice of killing and eating someone as food and then placing their bones on altars for wish fulfilment or hanging the wish bones upon sacred trees for deities to bless you.

    Animal bones in ancient pagan altars

    Atonement
    An ancient ritual of Artmeis of Munichia is also depicted in the course of time with the comparitives between this and the made up Abrahamic sacrificial tale of Bible and Koran quite apparent instantly. The Greek fable goes that to atone the killing of a bear belonging to the goddess and young girl needs to be killed at the altar around Easter time, but a female goat was instead substituted from above, sent by Artemis, therefore illustrating that other animals including hundred of goats can be killed in place of humans at one time to atone for sins.

    1st century AD (Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli) Iphigeneia carried to the sacrifice (centre). In the sky, Artemis appears with a hind which will be substituted to the young girl

    This is a very pagan concept of sin atonement through sacrifice, whether by way of Abraham and his young son who was to be killed for God at God’s commnd, but a lamb substituted at last minute, or the sacrifice of several bulls, goats and birds at Biblical temples and that of the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus, the so called Lamb of God who was killed as an atonement of human sins, sent by his father God himself to be murdered shamefully by humans as God ‘loved humans so much’.

    Asatru and Norse Blot

    Did you know that the term Blessing, according to Oxford dictionary actually arises from the ancient ritual of Blood sprinkling of sacrificed victims (Old English blod and bloedsian), from ceremonies of animal sacrifice including that of human animals? Upon reading this, perhaps you might reconsider blessing someone or asking to be blessed, or even saying ‘Bless you’ if someone sneezes.

    The significance of Blot, festival with sacrificial rituals within the annual farmer’s cycle of Asatru or ancient Norse religions derives from the meaning of the term ‘blood sacrifice’. The eight sabbats of the wheel of the year of paganism are celebrated through Blot, Yule (sacred to Odin old God of the Wild hunt) and return of Baldur the young God from Kingdom of Hel when days begin to lengthen, as a feast of animal sacrifice, followed by the others nameley Imbolg of the Celts as the February new moon Nordic sacrifice, Easter time or Ostara as the Equinox of Spring for slaying the innocent Hare, Walpurgis or May Day which is Beltane to Celts, Midsummer for the death of Baldur when days start to shorten, Freyfeast or Lammas, Fallfeast or Autumn Equinox, Harvestfeat for starty of winter, and several lesser feasts dedicated to myths of legendary heroes besides life event ceremonies or rites of passage of birth, mating and death.

    According to Astaru community, blood is offered to various Holy Powers or spirits in ancient Norse paganism in Blot ceremonies, God or deities such as Odin (later on he became Santa Clause in modern times), to Alfrs (Elf or Elves) and Wights (living dead humans). Non blood rituals are called Fainings instead of Blots which are considered ‘powerful rituals’. In the video below the Ribe Viking centre explains symbolically how a Volva (priestess) sacrificed horses, sprinkled blood on holy stone, and conducted Blot feasts, displayed the hide to proudly show how big the sacrifice was to the gods (Aesir) and how human life could be the biggest sacrifice yet.

    All kinds of living creatures including humans were killed and hung from trees in dedication to deities or placed in wells, including young children between 4 and 7 years of age as discovered at Trelleborg’s wells.

    Inter-Cultural Parallelisms of Deities

    The secret initiatory cult of Roman Mithras from pre-Hellenistic era (similar to Mitra of Vedic and meaning friends) involved the slaying of a Bull to establish law and order. The Cretan myth of Minotaur, a bull-man captive born of union of Bull and King’s wife who was slayed in the dungeons of King Minos also established the tradition of bull slaying. To date hideous bull slaying festivals continue in various parts of the world such as Spain. Parallelisms are similarly noted of how bulls were sacrificed to Zeus as they were to Egyptian deities in the past. Greco Roman, Semitic and Celtic deities have simialrities with Egyptian or Kemitic divinities, for example Baal the God of Thunderstorms of Cannanites, is similar to Zeus of Greece and Thor of Norse mythology and Hapi of Egypt. Human child sacrifices to the Lord/ God known as Hebrew Baal and the fearsome Cannanite Moloch are also mentioned in religious sacred texts.

    In ancient Hindu and Vedic cultures the elements were invoked such as wind Varun, fire Agni sky and thunder, water Apas (term similar to bull headed Api/Hapi of Nile, Egypt) and the Greek god Zeus having parellelisms with Dyaus of thunder and overruled by sky father Dyaus Pitr (name similar to Egyptian father Ptah) resembling the Mesopatamian Ea or Jewish god Yah. The Cannanite name Baal to whom bulls were sacrificed was transmuted into these Vedic and Jewish deities to whom sacrificial altars were constructed with burnt offerings of bull as well as other animals whose heads were chopped up in gory rituals that were meant to please deity. Many of these deitis were bull headed as well. The Corinthians had a disagreement with the use of the Canannite word Baal for the god or Lord and preferred Yah or Yahweh to convert masses over to obedience to their tribes of Israel instead of Mesopotamian, Sumerian, Cannanite and others. The image of a bull was dropped with Moses ordering the murder of 3000 men of Cannan by the Leviite who joined him forsaking the worship of an ancient bull idol of Yahweh.While Mesopotamian deities were Ea and Ishtar, Yahweh and Asherah became the new Hebrew ones, Shiva and Shakti of Hindus associated with sacred bull Nandi, while Baal and his consort Anat were Canannite or Ugaritic and became demonised, all these male deities being loosely similar to original terrifying Lord deities with sexual goddesses as consorts that gradualy became absent while the Lord God a nameless and faceless one overshadowed the western civilisation through the new religion of Israel.

    Animal Domestication and Farming Deities
    It is reasoned that humanity’s criminal nature of killing and cannabilism is related to the unnatural way humans unlike other primates decided to hunt large animals with weapons once upon a time, to be a fashion statement of power in later years when wars were common. Later on over the years needless domestication and senseless ritual killing of animals that were tamed was performed in festivities and traditions witih invention of new deities such as Aristaeous who was connected with cheese-making and beekeeping as well as dairying, sheep shearing, butchering and leather making. He too not unlike Jesus was the shephard son of a heavenly deity Apollo and a mortal huntress virgin Cyrene. New deities of sheparding, fishing, dairy and farming gods are therefore highly reverred in forms of Jesus and Krishna common in eastern and westen cultures were next to establish new trades of futures of animal products sold to masses.

    No wonder the common symbol of luck in the stock market is the Bull, symbolic of bull headed sacrificial demonic gods of the past in to whom cattle was sacrificed and also possibly associated with another (now considered demonic) being Beelzebub or Baal-zebub connected with bulls and plundering of bees which is close to what modern animal farming based human systems rigidly constitute. (Image below Ancient Sumerian Bull god, possibly called Ea, 25 BC verus the image of bull in modern stockmarket or even supermarket symbolism). We are all in a matrix inspired by senseless selfish acts that exploit other sentient beings since ancient times binding us to core values of materialism, while our purpose must be to break free from all evil.

    MESOPOTAMIAN, EGYPTIAN, MAYAN, AZTEC, INCAN

    A perfect man is fashioned out of clay in the image of creator god with an equal and a counterpart.
    A serpent descends from a tree to subdue a female in a garden near Euphrates river.
    A demon called Lilitu flees from the bush.
    There is a Tree of Life that is well guarded.
    A gigantic flood for six days and six nights wiped off the world.

    Sounds familiar? Perhaps like something out of the Biblical Genesis chapter? Except that it is much older, (penned well before 2000 BC) ancient Mesopotamian texts of thier fabled king and hero Gilgamesh alongside deities such as Ea (similar to the western Yah or Yahweh) who was a creator with pantheons including the now forgotten Innana/ Ishtar of sexual feminine origin who communicated with humans. The matrix of manmade religion has certainly spread far and wide in modern society since then, contrived into the popular faiths of Jewish, Christian and Muslim communities now spread the world over.

    In earlier stories Part 1 and Part 2 we examined how humans have shamelessly hunted animals for personal benefit and formed their own madeup religions to inspire them with illusory animal powers and deities. Shamans hallucinogenically projected spirits assisting them in their goals through a trance like state of delirium where they see imaginary mental simulations caused due to chemicals from carefully selected psychoactive components of plants in the name of ‘medicine’.

    As society developed from hunting and fishing to farming communities, settlements were formed near mighty rivers such as Mesopotamia, Nile, Indus and Thames to farm the land and domesticate innocent creatures, instead of moving around as nomadic huntsmen killing all wildlife. Animals were domesticated in herds by men and women who bred them, looked after them and killed them before cooking them up without any thought to the severity and immorality of these gruesome acts.

    Subduing and killing an animal and having physical or muscular power was the primary trait sought after from these brutal male dominated societies as shown in the Mesopotamian image below of a king as the lord or master of the animals. Sacrifices of human and other animal children were also conducted in Mesopitamia as this linked article describes.

    This time even more fantabuloustic imaginary spirits or deities that are imagined to be stationed higher up either in ascended heavens or chthonic underworld were invoked by ancient humans to assist them in their lifestyle. Naturally due to the prominence of murdered flesh, several diseases must have been caused by consuming dead remains as usual. Nevertheless humans ascribed these diseases to spirits and believed deities will cure them in return of further sacrifices to the deities. Fear of natural calamities also moved these ignorant people to kill animals and each other in bargain that the deity will not be angry with them and accept the barter of the innocent person being offered instead.

    Animals including their own children and human male and female slaves were all seen as property alongwith other day-to-day objects. Therefore humans worshipped deities to prevent wars and defeat enemies as other neighbouring tribes came to take over their property including animals and enslaved humans or children or women away. Political power and kingships developed to a higher level with great monuments such as pyramids and temples erected in a ludicrious display of wealth and grandeur to impose the might of the pharoahs and leaders upon the common men and women who were often enslaved.

    By appointing priests, sacrifice of chosen special animals including humans in the name of the political leadership was seen as a way to take away the ‘sins’ or disease of the community, to bestow more power upon the pharoahs and kings, or to ward off enemies and black-magic, lest the gods would be angry and send bad weather, deadly poisons or hardships upon them.
    Intimidating the masses into submission the nobility built mega-temple complexes and at times ascended pharohs and kings to special sacred thrones alongside gods and deities.

    In Egyptian or Kemitic religion, several animals were eaten as well as routinely sacrificed to Gods and Tutelar deities who protected human encroachments of places of nature. Domesticated animals were mere food but carnovorus animals held a special place as usual. These such as Ibis (sacred to Thoth) were not to be killed but fed killed fish, while Cats sacred to Bast had acute reverence and their murder was a punishable offence with death penalty. Falcons sacred to Horus and Hawks to Buto were also spared their lives, snakes to Zeus, Eels to Atum and Crocodiles to Sobek. Animals depicted on the heads and wings of deities also included jackal-headed Anubis and Lions for Sekhmet, ferocious goddess of war also for energising the tribes for bloodlust.

    The imaginary gods and goddess of ancient Egypt were specially notorious for being the reason for sacrifice of real animals that are ‘sacred’ to them, except for ‘ the murder of virgin cows being disallowed for certain rituals, vaguely similar to Hindu religion that allows females to survive as long as they are sexually fertile (mothers) and provide more babies to kill and abuse for the humans who own them and sexually exploit them.

    The sacrificed victims were children, termed the ‘chosen ones’, regarded as beautiful, pure in colour often young calves are killed in evil magic rituals in thename of Isis adorned with cow antlers and Hapi (Apaphus) to whom bulls were sacrificed. Unblemished oxen were sacrificed to the most sacred Isis in horrid rituals said to tbe the highest form of worship. Disturbing descriptions of rituals of how wine is poured over the innocent and helpless child, ox or bull or even a baby calf who is then dismembered by a priest ceremonially in a temple are found in texts the full version being on the link herein in writings by acclaimed ancient historian Herodotus.

    Pigs were considered ‘unclean’ for general sacrifice and only sacrificed to the Moon deity on full moons ceremonies, while other domesticated animals sacrificed to important deities horned and adorned in statues and images or idols sometimes with various animal features. While neo-pagans and Wiccan imitate full moon rituals they have at times no idea about how deeply ingrained the concept of taking life and spirit out of a helpless creature is part of the ‘spiritual’ work of ancients that they venerate abysmally.

    Spirit returning to the bloodthirsty creator, gods or goddesses who are pleased by the spirit and strangely bless the killers may be simply a case of gods and goddesses being allocated human figures, manufactured in the image of the human who created them and imbibed thier own imagined qualities of personification. If humans enjoyed meat so would the creator or gods and goddesses who were bipedal humanoids as well – lords and ladies in otherworld fashioned out of clay in the image and likeness of the servants on earth. Pharoahs were naturally regarded as powerful and therefore godlike as well, deities being synonymous with power and might – taking life away from an innocent, and enslaving them an act of power.

    In many evil rites, of Egyptians curses were spoken on the dismembered caracass that is then given to enemies such as Greek, so that the maladies or misfortunes of the Egyptians be passed over via the animal’s flesh to the enemy units through the ritual sacrifice technique. This is quite similar to evil rites conducted in malefically by certain Indian black-magic and aghoric practioners.

    Many historians have described an annual sacrifice of a young female child, termed ‘Virgin’ to Nile river to please a god called Hapi who they believed will bring the annual flooding leading to rich deposits of soil for plantation. As humans used to abuse females and regarded virgins or young child females as more sexually desirable, they selected little girls as victims for their false gods as well.

    Retainer Sacrifice of Slaves: Besides sacrificing animals including at times human beings to deities to please them or to atone for sins, there is some evidence as per this research paper linked herein on sacrifice of slaves, termed ‘retainer sacrifice’ by which noble or rich masters went to heaven along with their possessions including women and children who served them as their slaves, concubines and peasants.

    Other ancient cultures with similar traditions included Mayan, Incan and Aztec cultures where temples and pyramids were similarly used for animal and human sacrifice involving violence. Apus were great an powerful spirits of the mountains such as Machu Pichu where animals and children were killed, while the famouos Chichen Itza a massive human animal sacrifice site including human victims in a massive stinkhole (sinkhole).

    Vast racks of skulls have been discovered in the inhuman temples and glorious pyramidal temples of Aztecs where they decapitated humans and removed their still beating heart to worship their chthonic and superficial false gods and goddesses using obsidian crystal weapons as described in a Sciencemag article.

    Virgins of the Sun were primarily child female victims of rape and exploitation, specially chosen as ‘beautiful’ brides of deity and isolated away from their family and from society, they were as young as 6 to 8 years old being trained for serving the masters. Many were forced to work as concubines or sexual slaves to the kings and some sent as sacrificial victims to walk thousand miles to be killed brutally in vast temples after decoration with a special headdress.


    National Geographic had recently reported a heartbreaking mass sacrifice evidenced by archaeologists. The ritual conducted over 550 years ago in Peru involved cold blooded murder of hundreds of baby Llamas with little human children, as part of a Chimu civilisation. As reported by the researchers excavating the site, ‘many of the children had their faces smeared with a red cinnabar-based pigment during the ceremony before their chests were cut open, most likely to remove their hearts. The sacrificial baby llamas appear to have met the same fate’ as the children who haplessly held on to them.

    Possibly the biggest recorded human child and baby animal ritual sacrifice site in Peru

    Hope that this discussion on the often admired deities and rich traditions of the past opens our eyes to the truth about how unnatural and dystopic our history and heritage have been. While the matrix of media and spiritual organisations, teachers, masters and modern classical networks such as Gaia sell you information, media, tours and courses to make money through your initiations into these mystery of occult rites and rituals, it may be important to keep in mind that the truth of ancient as well as modern religions is seldom positive. Media uses terms such as ‘breathtaking’, ‘grandeur’, ‘genius’ and ‘wonders’ to describe ignorant materialistic adn hedonistic cultures of ancient archaeology adn religion that our modern western and global society epitomises and holds as essential to success, building ever new gigantic artificial human constructs that reach the skies and abuse nature.

    In all the glory and magnificience of the architecture, the splendour, gold, beauty, sexuality and astrological symbolism we confuse these Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Aztec, Mayan, Incan and other reputed civilisations with, we must remember that Ascension is not about worshipping or being fascinated by these structures or dark practices, but about distancing from the evils of materialism, violence, hedonism and corruption throughout human history and widespread in present times. By imitating ancient Egyptian, Mesopatamian, Mayan and other deities in your chosen names, ritualistic initiations or behaviors you may be invoking presence of pride, ego and evil demonic beings or manifestations instead of elevating your consciousness towards truth.

    The Role of Animals in Ancient Human Religion – Part 2

    POWER ANIMALS

    The sound of the native shamanic drums soothe your soul with beautiful beats that mesmerise you….your kundalini energy dances inside your body. You are taken into a sleep like state of dreaming and mental relaxation. You feel the rhythms vibrating inside you as you close your eyes, connecting with the powers of the animals whose skin was used for the drum. Was it a buffalo, a bison, camel, a cow or a deer, perhaps a loose horse who was killed for healing your soul. Its dead remains now used for healing your soul with the spirit or power of the animal, who is lonely energy now….Sounds a bit wrong doesn’t it? Afterall the hide and skin could have been yours too, or a friend’s. What is the difference anyways?

    In part 1 of this series we examined a revival of neo-paganism, Wicca and a belief that connects to ancient wild customs within the modern world in secret rituals of white men and women merely imitating the original tribes and natives and their customs and rituals.

    Humans have long been fascinated by a variety of power animals (symbols or totems of energy), although the right term should be ‘poor animals’. The word Anima or Animus represents your soul or dream persons as they move with you in your life. They are people who are animated, not still or calm but running, playful, energetic and emotional beings. Humans are animals just like any other animal is, and just like we experience life, emotions and pain so do other animals too. If humans are people so are other animals too.

    Hunting of other animals by human animals should be seen as a crime. Instead it is seen as necessary for survival by tribes of ancient earth that are still existing in some parts of the planet. The behavior of tribals who hunt various animals is no different from the historically accounted stoneage folk who hunted sentient beings for food instead of surviving on plant based life. The fact that they are not able to feel the pain of the animals and focus only on thier primitive instincts to kill and eat someone as any carnivore does, seems to be of no consequence as the acts are justified and glorified by environmentalists and western media who enjoy carnivorism and connect it with their own stoneage ancestral heritage with aplomb.

    Westerners who are educated and clever manipulate audience by justifying the hunting and killing process stating they are ‘uniting with the energy or spirit of the animal’ by consuming the poor victim and ‘honouring them’ by eating them up and using up all of their body parts for consumption, to make items from them. In this video they justify the acts for profit, by partnering with hunting tribes who are allowed to hunt animals in national parks and those terrified animals who try to escape unsuccessfully from the perimeters or boundaries within which they are bound in these national parks are killed mercilessly with either hunters who pay a fees or native tribals who commit the violent act for free because the land once belonged to them and they have arrived at a pact or agreement with the tribesmen who want their land and rights to hunt animals to be re-given to them as entitlement. Land afterall belongs to humans – an unjust system since millenia routinely followed, whether by tribes fighting with each other for right to kill animals in their ‘territory’ or politics of modern territorial governments who are corrupt and violent, acquiring land through colonisation and warfare and taxing people, selling land and charging rent from them. Animals have no rights.


    Ancient tribes, native americans and shamans used these totems to connect with animal spirits, possibly in preparation of hunting and wars, panthers, tigers, wolves and snakes held their imagination as they role played their behaviors in colourful rituals and rites aided by trance and hallucinogens. Vying to take life of kind animals who run from them, hunters go around pretending to be snakes, cheetahs and camouflaging chamelons, owls and eagles who soar high. Humans in various native customs have devoured the spiritual essense of canivores to hurt herbivores, whom they see as ‘lesser animals’ – as food. Hunting native humans also dress up and imitate behavior of herbivores to fool the innocent victims who are then killed by them. This is the secret behind the ideology of power animals animal totems and the imitation of behavior of other animals by tribes originally.

    The diseases humans acquire through the life of carnivorism are identified as bad spirits that have come into them to be released using hallucinogenic drugs, lovely songs in high voices, drums or other musical instruments and social products to alter their mind via trance states. Naturally western media and fans of culture would support the use of drugs and hallucinogens by themselves, other humans and children simply because it is also their way of living and partying and they too consider this as a remarkable healing experience of mind-alteration, numbing your pain, escaping from the actual cause of your illness by simply altering your state of mind ritually instead of dealing with the reason for the problems, your food, your own negativity, your own evil behavior.



    Tribals found motivation in the spirits of power animals, the wild beasts who have a sense of purpose – the one who can murder another one survives, the other sadly dies for them, helplessly as the victim fails to escape the clutches of the powerful one. Thereby aping carnivores, with the intent of enhancing their survival and territorial rights, tribal huntsmen even used the skins, bones and feathers of their victims in rituals for the display of their own power over them. Dresing up in fabulous costumes and headresses made of feathers, skins and bones of the victims is considered stunning to make a social statement and impress others.


    Demonic or wild immoral spirits that are carnivorous help tribes in killing their victims. Skins of victims are beaten in a hideous display of energy, drumming to assist in invocation as bodies move to the rhythms in trance with aid of hallucinogens. Vibrations of the killed animal, someone who was terified and hurt painfully and then eaten up and every part of his or her body usurped by the killer…would heal someone?

    The truth is that commercial glamourisation of animal skin and hide products in the name of shamanism in the west is as popular as animal meat industry and consumers form a profitable market, both spiritual, semi-spiritual and simply fancy dress. Skins and hides sourced either from so called ‘ethical’ slaughterhouses of partially stunned and heavily raped or abused adult or children become belts, clothes, fur or leather as well as drums and other shamanic paraphernalia in most cases, simply because they are byproducts of meat industry. Original shamans kill their own victims for meat by hunting in the wild and use the animal’s hide for healing each other in their own communities unperturbed by what happened to the animal. In some cases we are made to believe they thank the animal’s spirit first over their dead body similar to Jewish and Christian customs of thanking the creator for the animals farmed and killed after tremendous abuse to be served upon their plates. On top of that all body parts of the victim are used including for ritual healing purposes for ancestral healing and proud to not ‘waste anything’ and being eco-friendly.

    Ogouns and Orishas of African tribal communities as well as Indian or Asian gods and goddesses are usually spirits believed to be assisting humans with hunting, abuse or killing of domesticated animals and praying for welfare and wealth of the tribes. Rituals involving brutally murdering animals are supposed to make spirits happy in rarely recorded communities of tribals such as this one.


    Legends of fictional reptilian or draconian deities who dream up and create our world abound in aboriginal myths. From Philipines to Chinese spirits and deities that assist in hunting and fishing abound in eastern as well as western mythologies. Divination or fortune telling called Haruspicy, performed by examining the disgusting entrails of the poor victims is also part of Shamanic practices in a few parts of the world having been performed for augury since neolithic times.

    Cannibalism is also found in tribes – wilfully accusing and killing a friend or community member of being ‘evil, a sorceror, a witch’ (as somebody simply must be blamed if anyone else dies of a prionic or deadly disease caused possibly by germs and animal protein of killed bodies). The idea is that any misfortune is due to spirits and the spirits are sent by someone else from their tribe and the accused done away with and his body eaten. They usually feel no remorse on killing their own cousin or friends for them killing someone and eating them up is a a normal act, animals and humans alike.

    Little children are also brutally murdered on strange suspicion that they caused evil or misfortune to their family or community in case someone dies of a natural cause.

    While neo-pagans and Wiccans at times imitate the native and tribal ritual methodology they may leave out or not even be completely aware of the actual tribal customs, imagining they are helping the planet and wildlife by a return to ancient systems that were hunting based and therefore preventing deforestation. Sadly some people such as heartless media persons actually like these customs and justify them because they like carnivorism and look actively for validation of their belief that killing someone for taste or pleasure is good simply because it is ancient.

    Similar violent traditions of hunting, killing and eating animals and thanking creator or God continued on as human civilisation developed consequently and white men drove out the original poor tribes of natives and aboriginals and usurped all the land using uncivil or criminal means to unceremoniously grab land and prosperity for the new kingdoms of their God and religion, spreading pollution and horrors of animal farming everywhere and building vast monuments and industrial legacies of crimes against nature.

    Be it tribal folk customs or modern ways of living and praying, westerners, especially whites have severely exploited ancient tribal and native shamanic cultures, taken away their land and then used them for the purpose of selling their own ‘spiritual’ products or services through popularising borrowed ideas and widely market the symbols that actually belong to the tribes. While it is right to sympathise with natives for the loss of their primitive land to the exploitative capitalists, imitating ancient tribals blindly by hunting, drumming on skins or using thier personal totems also seems unecessary. The natives are after all merely singing songs, dancing, playing their beats, celebrating rituals and rites of nature to serve them with hunting, calling upon spirits to assist them in hunting and to help themselves be the surviving tribe in the area. They were poor and unable to find food easily being untrained in plant based agriculture, health, hygeine or spiritual ethics. Their healing was not really about loving the animals or being kind to the rest of nature for healing other innocent beings, but for personal survival as this acclaimed documentary conveniently elucidates.

    We hope this article and videos help you demystify ancient cultures of tribes and native customs. Human world is highly unconscious and it can be hard to find a spirituality that liberates you or leads to an ascension of consciousness, awakening you to think about how you can discover your true self in this matrix of mumbo-jumbo all around hell.

    The Role of Animals in Ancient Human Religion – Part 1

    Classic religion and ancient traditions have asserted a reverence for some animals and nature throughout history but do we really respect them? Upon examination of the rich oral traditions and literature of religions, it appears that largely the purpose of animal based spiritual traditions is hunting, domestication, or some sort of ‘use’ of the animal’s energy for personal benefit through rites and rituals. This article examines various religions in the Matrix operating throughout the planet since time immemorial (my spirit guides insist that many religions are Satanic), although the first one examined here, being neo-paganism and Wicca are believed to be modern earth based and eco-friendly spiritual practices for veneration of nature based on ancient ones.

    Honoured maiden huntress Artemis, Artemis…new moon come to us‘…so begins the slow popular ‘triple goddess’ chant used by Wiccan and Pagans in stone circles to ‘bring in’ the qualities of the deity into the ritual circle and infuse them with her powers. The moon has enchanted humankind since stoneage, used to mark the days, with the waxing and waning cycles that helped ancient humans keep track of the calender and the female periods. Wicca is a feminine system of worship as it is deeply connected with the three phases of the moon, new to waxing, full and waning. Artemis an ancient virgin goddess similar to Diana, Brigid, Astarte is linked with the copious new moon and new beginnings of the rise of fertility, brightness and power, while the second one in the middle is the full moon goddesses, the mother goddess Cerridwen, Isis, Demeter for blessing and fulfilment, the third, dark goddess of the waning moon connects with hidden energy, secrets, death and negativity for instance Hecate, Morrigan, Innana and the lowerworld mysteries.

    But what about the fact that Artemis, much like Diana is a goddess of the hunt, armed with weapons to kill and subdue other animals with her might, her masculine femininity, her independence, pride and ego. Ancient gods and goddesses though beautiful are also adorned with weapons that are deadly at times. Well meaning practitioners who are awakening may in reality be disenchanted by the hunting past of some of these ancient deities, originating at a time when consciousness was severly limited unfortunately and wars, hunting and crimes were commonplace, laws miserably poor and population ignorant. Deities invoked were aimed at blessing humans with powers of hunting, warfare and healing for human betterment, not necesarily for the betterment of nature. The healing and hunting powers being for humankind’s benefit, for the community at large to take energy they desire from nature.

    The ‘Wild Hunt‘ is a fascinating nonsensical subject among pagans and Wiccans who believe there was an ancient masculine deity, the Lord who went all around on a wild hunt at cold winter nights with his hounds, now possibly transformed into Santa Clause with his symbolic reindeers with a slight twist of imagination to divert attention from the original folk or faery lore of the Wild Hunt theme. Legends of Germanic lore also endorse the hunting of a victim female, or in other words rape through this ugly tale which is of course ‘traditional’ and charming and enacted in rituals in Wicca by educated people. People, who believe they are empowering women and by elevating feminine to goddesses that are often consorted by male gods in sexual themes of so called ’emanicipation’.

    Celtic Cerrunos the horned hunter sometimes equated with the ‘devil’ imagery as one major deity or the primary deity of the ‘horned one’ is not the only one of the Wild Hunt, with Gywnn App Nudd of faery divine king lore, Herne the Hunter as the Scandinavian leader of the Wild Hunt and Odin as the Anglo-Saxon Lord of the imaginary Wild Hunt. The tarot cards include The Devil as a masked horned God goat-headed figure symbolically controlling male and female ritually bonded people in ritual.

    Hunting deities are well endorsed by cave paintings of a horned male figurine of European origin reminiscent of a ‘prehistoric Shiva’ Harappan seal as lord of animals in worldwide traditions. Hunting is seen as not a crime as it should be, but a popular sport and a survival technique of ancestors. Several gods and goddesses from ancient folklores champion the neo-pagan revival including hunting deities such as Inuit Sedna who is the goddess of marine hunting, Devana of Slavic myths and Skadi of Norse legends. Noone would understand why some hunting deities of folklore are worshipped upon altars of pagans and Wiccans to connect with nature and champion the cause of the planet’s environment, seas, ice-caps, forests and it’s magical ‘healing’ rites of nature if they would also kill animals whether on land or in the seas.

    Ley lines of neolithic and ancient monuments of British culture, favoured by Wiccans and neo-pagans the world over have already been exposed in the past articles part 1 and part 2 of this blog as areas where animals have also been sacrificed or killed for feasting in celebration of the winter solstice. Such stone-site megalithic traditions continue undisturbed by tribals in eastern India and Indonesia involving domesticated animal’s sacrificed on specific stones in veneration of ancestors, stones erected to honour human tribal folk who died and their families attaining noble status materially through lavish sacrifice and feasting rituals in their name.

    Some Wiccan practitioners insist that they belong to strict lineages of men who imitate semi-satanic loosely occult inspired rituals of strict nudism, sexuality and imitation of bestiality dressing up in horned masks. They are clearly rebelling against the unjust murders of so called witches, male, female and children of the burning times of inquisions and witch hunts in the name of Jesus Christ when several innocents who were not even witches were terribly tortured into a false confession that they were guilty of working with the devil.

    Other Wiccan traditions are neo-Wiccan, having transmuted into simpler ones who insist they ‘Harm None’, focus on tarot card reading work and crystal, herbal or candle folk magic to bring back feminine spirituality and intuition, oblivious to the other stranger traditions in British and western Wicca.

    Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill, An it harm none do what ye will. (Doreen Valiente, 1964) – these words are not always followed as Wiccans are flexible in their opinions and not bound by any strict law. Yet, many neo-Wiccans are drawn like magnets to the Wiccan Rede believing that there will be love and compassion to learn from Wiccan faith.

    Those who adhere to the Rede might prefer to be vegan and work only with positive magic to heal other humans and wild animals and the planet too. However many Wiccans are solely omnivorous and most still invoke hunting deities, a practice that arguably takes away instantly from the concept of Harming None. The use of animal products in rituals and rites is still part of many groups, temples or covens, employing animal bones, horns, cornucopia, skulls and goat’s head even to this day, symbolically. Ugly rituals from the past included animal sacrifice and divination by entrails of murdered animals, a practice that is not followed by most Wiccans, except for those select practitioners who imitate the hideous times of the past ritually to maintain traditionality of occult.

    Some people, usually children enamoured by child-friendly Harry Potter magic that makes objects briefly fly into air by telekinesis, or young females inspired by the Charmed series of three ‘Wiccan’ sisters who fight against demons are shattered to learn that real witchcraft has no semblance to that kind of television and Hollywood magic. Ordinarily Wicca students are nothing like Hermione Granger and her witty spells from books, and teachers nothing like Dumbledore. What was possibly a simple global belief in power of herbs, thoughts, intentions, words and charms, followed by every culture all around the world, from China to India and Pakistan to Africa for cleansing, empowering, healing and blessing has been ceremonialised in occult forms developed by Aleister Crowley and other occult ceremonial magicians regarded as wizards and witches.

    Wiccan religion seems to imitate partially, malignant Christian rituals with chalices of wine and bread and lengthy sermonic invocations of flesh and body of the lamb of god a.k.a. Yeshua murdered in lieu of animals to take away sins. Except that instead of a lone deity of Israel, neo-pagan and Wiccan religion honours pantheistic ancient ones from around the pagan world, Celtic, Druid , Egyptian and Mesopotamian to name a few as Wican chalices are taken around the circle or coven of witches.

    The simple fact that killing of other species is considered ‘normal’ and part of nature and hunting venerated explains how mysterious otherworldly powers are abused by humans to create and manufacture religions meant to subjugate others around them whether in the name of God, Allah or any other divinity that attracts followers be it Diana, Cerrunos, Yahweh or any deity whatsoever, feminine or masculine. Perhaps the introduction of Jesus was meant to eradicate practices of animal sacrifice in a way in rituals, although Christians continue to consume animals and their secretions all over the world and associate Jesus with animal farming and fishing too which seems contradictory if he took away all sins. His killing is another form of ritual sacrifice murder, and the entire idea of sacrifice being a misplaced one based on a very wrong belief that someone must die in order for a deity to be pleased, for atonement of sins or in lieu for someone else who must be saved by offering another’s life in his or her place.

    We have all heard of African baby and child sacrifices as well as animal sacrifices in witchcraft, Haitian voudou, Santeneria and numerous other traditions and some Indian unholy rituals all heavily criticized as shameful ignorant malpractices. In countries such as India people would pay large sums of money to practitioners of tantric and aghoric belief systems who can make things ‘happen’ for them (including so called black-magic to harm someone) using disgusting and murderous practices at times, while those who insist that Wicca is based on ‘Harming None’ are seldom accepted as people devoid of consciousness still associate evil and superstitious rituals with magic.

    Those Wiccans who morally insist that Wicca should be a mature, nature loving spirituality of kindness and non-harming (ahimsa) for healing of the planet based on the Wiccan rede (Harming None principle) are at times rudely rebuked as ‘fluffy bunnies’ by nudist and Luciferian ceremonialists from Alexandrian, Gardenerian and other lineaged traditions of British Witchcraft who insist on the ‘old ways’ being superior. Connection with ancient stoneage and hunter-gatherer past still runs strong among most of them as the following documentary richly elucidates.

  • Were Stone Henge and Circles Neolithic Slaughterhouses? Part 2

    Were Stone Henge and Circles Neolithic Slaughterhouses? Part 2

    Pagan and ancient spirituality have been believed to be earth-friendly and nature worshipping at large but the global traditions of animal sacrifice and slaughter can be shameful. While ancient stoneage paleolithic folk are believed to have hunted animals with raw flintstone weapons leading to extinction of giants and wildlife such as wooly mammoths, wooly rhinos and aurochs, domestication of animals took place later on as evidenced in mesolithic and neolithic societies. Sacrifices of animals were conducted in and around megaliths or stone circles where domesticated animals were slaughtered en-masse.

    While stone-circle enthusiasts enjoy the enchantment of pagan drums, travel through ley-lines across sacred pilgrimage sites and imagine a connection with aliens and higher ascended beings within them, the truth may be hard to bear at first, yet much evidence has been discovered lately to confirm this kind of ritual slaughter and feasting.

    In the previous article in this series we examined some new evidence by researchers who discussed that large numbers of pigs were slaughtered in stone circles and henges in Britain, after being forced to travel a long and weary journey to be regularly feasted upon in rituals. We also discussed how religious sites for rituals have tradtionally involved animal slaughter, including Biblical temples as well as modern day Mecca and Jerusalem.

    But did you know that the tradition of stone henge and megalithic constructions is found even today in certain tribal communities such as Indonesian Samba and Indian Maram tribes and answers some key questions of how and why the construction of stone circle megaliths was undertaken?

    As expected status, authority, power and control of livestock was associated with the designation of nobility and elders who were venerated in religious rituals and festivities. The rituals centerted around use of domesticated animals to pull the stones for construction, and then to be victimised and killed for food in honour of the human community at the stone sites to uphold feasts held to support the traditions and ancestors along with burial of dead human relatives.

    In another earlier research entitled Significance of Monuments by Bradley, 1998 it has been discussed that the monolithic or megalithic monuments in northern Europe were found adjacent to the first domesticated animals. Buried human remains excavated from tombs includes animal body parts, teeth, antlers, meat, fish as well as sacificed dogs and puppies in some cases possibly after using dogs for hunting and herding other animals. Monuments were constructed to withstand seasons and be a permanent marker of land as domestication of animals also marked control of humans over the earth. Males were also valued and buried ritually with objects.

    A distinction was made between two types of monuments in Neolithic era, the long barrows, long mounds or long flat houses which were probably domestic and storage areas or burial pits and the circular erect-stone enclosures of rings that seemed more significant for ritual and were surrounded by ditches and trenches that were were reconstructed if filled up to enclose certain stone circles, perhaps to restrict access and control movement around the stone circle.

    A large sampling in a scientific study of pig maxillary jaws and teeth recovered at Durrington Walls, Britain’s largest henge monument evidenced that several large herds of little pigs were brought to the site to provide meat for predominately winter-based feasting events, and these were babies of less than one year old killed predominantly in winter for seasonal ritual celebrations. With the evidence from the recent laser-scanning of Stonehenge this adds to the theory that stone circles were for marking the solstice of midwinter more importantly than midsummer to slaughter fattened animals after autumn was over and before they lose weight in late winter. In contrast remains from houses and burial sites reveal a more consistent pattern of lower level killing of slightly older pigs of 2 years age for consumption throughout the year in households and the remains of pigs ritually slaughtered and buried in pits when the houses were abandoned. Ceramic residue sample revealed dairy and beef fat as well.

    A latest multi-isotope study by R. Madwig et al in 2019 as discussed in the previous article in this series had earlier demonstrated that not only the Priseli stones but also pigs were brought from far off lands such as Wales travelling over a 100 kilomoeters at times to the sacrficial site along with the pilgrims.

    However another study of July 2019 published by Cambridge University Press has shown that pig grease might be used for transporting stones on the megalithic sites on sledges for construction of Stonehenge and as evidence for large scale feasting over murdered remains at Stonehenge in 2500 BC.

    A massive research on the megalitic tradition of West Sumba, (Adams, Simon Fraser University, 2007) re-examines literature of previous studies and eyewitness accounts of the continuation of the ancient practice of megalithic site constructions prevalant even to this day which makes West Sumba, Indonesia unique in the world. As the structures are impressive in size and dimensions and require large amount of labour to be erected, there are possible socio-political connections with structures around the world in the prehistoric tradition of megalithic stone structures.

    The researchers comment that the value of animals for meat was much higher than that of plants as 350 kg of rice could be exchanged for a water buffalo and pig or horse of equivalent value, a small pig the worth of five small chickens. The status or class and ranks of people depended on the owned cattle and loans which were settled in rituals annually. Nobles held elaborate funeral ceremonies or rituals as they had more domesticated animal slaves and land, and sacrifice a large number of animals on sites, while human slaves could not have large rituals and were buried under the tombsor dolomens of their owners. Wealth is patriarchial in the culture and male babies may be adopted by the nobility by sacrificing a pig or in exchange of animals. Marriages were also useful for wealth and dowry exchange.

    Livestock is used in the Sumba communities of Indonesia to drag heavy stones to megalithic construction sites and livestock slaughtered for feast in the end of the tiresome journey of the hungry animals. Thanksgiving, ancestral house building, tomb building and several kinds of ritual feasts including lavish feasts called wolekas are organised regularly with hundreds of animals slaughtered and special motifs carved in the end on the posts in case ancestral buildings were rebuilt. It took several years to build heavy stone megalith tombs and dolomens and families needed to acquire cattle and pigs over several years to be able to organise the rituals with several animals killed for planning meetings with the clan and given as payment to conduct various parts of the process such as stone cutting, quarrying, digging to many animals were decapacitated and consumed.

    Before modern times which requires use of trucks to move stones, several horses, water-buffaloes, pigs and goats as well as older male children besides adult men were used to transport the stones, tie them with vines or ropes and pull the carts or sledges from across the lands to the special megalith construction sites. Throughout the lengthy journey several animals were sacrificed to pay for the workers. From 150 men for smaller projects to 2000 men for larger stones can be needed to pull the large stones of several tonnes weight. The erection of the tombs was with much fanfare and ritual singing or chanting. The larger the number of people invited from all over the lands, the more the animals slaughtered for feasting and partying. Comparison of Sumba culture of megaliths with similar tomb cultures of Madagascar, Korea and other cultures including Britain have been made throughout the detailed report.

    Photographic evidence of the tribal people of Sumba, Indonesia and some of their Shamanic annual blood-letting, sacrifice and augury cremony termed Pasola as well as lunar blood sports under the waning moon in the cult in the monolithic system surviving to date is found on websites.

    An Indian megalithic tradition and surviving culture of primitive Maram tribe of Manipur, India reveals an impressive stonehenge structure as featured in a paper on The Maram Megliths and their Associated Rituals by P. Binodini Devi, P.G. Department of Anthropology, D.M. College of Science, Imphal. Eight types of megaliths found in each Maram village are described namely, Beitung (witness stone) a large stone megalith where animals are ritually sacrificed, watch tower, memorial stone, grave stone on which bulls or bufaloes are sacrificed in the name of the deceased, a stone seats circle for resting, miniature menhirs to symbolise male members, holy stone on which blood of innocent animals is smeared and a cap stone where decapitated heads are buried. The magical rituals are aimed at securing benevolence of divine God for prosperity of the family conducting the animal sacrifices and lead to enhancement of their status in the tribe by way of throwing the sacrificial feast and distributing the meat of killed victims.

    If you thought that slaughter of animals ancient sites was unique to stone circles of Britain and other megalithic stone-cultures, think again. The famous seals of Harappa and Mohenjodaro culture of ancient Indian settlements now in Punjab-Sindh, Pakistan reveals the famous Pasupati seal (lord of the animals as a prototype of Shiva or a Cerrunos like male with horns or antlers) and one of these clearly depicts a buffalo being sacrificed next to the male human sitting in a cross legged posture.

    The above text also hints at evidence that in South India too there is a ‘Buffalo king’ ritual in which females are symbolically married to a tree before which several buffaloes are beheaded followed by uprooting of the tree linked to Shiva’s phallus castration.

    Recently a Malayalam horror movie Jalikattu has gained accolades for being India’s official entry to the 2021 Oscars for depicting a crude tradition of buffalo slaughter and the violence associated with the same in the semi-carnivorous areas of rural and tribal India.

    Another write up compares several types of ‘Vedis’ or ritual sacrifices at Harappan sites as per detailed prescriptions in the vedas and animal victims depicted on the ancient Harappan seals or clay tablets. The victim was tied in front of the ‘yajna’ or fire-pit cermeony with recitation of mantras by purified Vedic priests who would later cook the victim in a pot in the gory spiritual tradition of propitiating deities.

    The similar notorius Hindu tradition of animal sacrifice Gadhimai of Nepal, the largest ritual killing in the world as featured in this news video, to please a goddess named Gadhimai who bestows power, featured a petition to ban the same but still held in a cruel way in 2019 after an earlier ban by the government was negotiated and confirmed.

    In case you found Egyptian pyramids and gods mystifying and linked with Ascension and Atlantis, ritual sacrifice of animal victims in ancient Egypt in the name of their popular dieties is described by Herodotus in graphic ways as the priest tests the animal, pours libation over the altar and the ox and cuts his throat as well as kills calves, stuffs bullocks after removing lower entrails with honey, spices, frankincense and myrrh for their feast. Studies have revealed that large‐scale slaughter of animals was commonplace in ancient Egypt, especially in celebrations for the Pharoahs, and for distribution of remains of the victims to the populace. Sacrifice of human victims including children with mothers in some cases was also a common theme in Aztec cannibalism, pre-Incan pyramid sacrifices, Mexican pyramid sacrifices and Mayan culture while animals were frequently sacrificed as well.

    We have grown up feeling special about ancient stone-circles and megaliths, mantras, rituals and pagan rites as forms of earth-worship, but upon examining the evidence above, it might be concluded that our ancient culture and tradition, from Biblical times of modern world in various conventional religions and sacred sites of Mecca and Jerusalem, to pre-Christian and pagan times are replete with violence and discrimination by way of animal sacrifice. Not only do we find slavery and casteism and an establishment of human dominion, power and control over earth in every other religion, we also see how slaughter of various species has been commonplace, animals victimised, hunted, domesticated, farmed and used for meat and dairy in the name of spirituality, ancestral veneration and ancient Shamanic, Egyptian or Vedic rituals and rites to establish human ego and superiority.

  • GOING FRUGAL: How to Minimise Shopping and Increase Abundance

    GOING FRUGAL: How to Minimise Shopping and Increase Abundance

    I was thinking about how little we actually need, and how much more shopping people actually are trained to enjoy through advertising and media brainwashing. As a child I remember too many movies, television shows, with the idiot box on all day and evening at varied intervels, and what we were learning as children was, to buy, to shop, to desire and want more things, especially ‘omnivore items’. Little or no moral education was there with crime, romance and silly songs or stories always fed into the head that have been manifesting outwards in our ‘reality show’ simulation. We were not introduced to what life actually is about, a balanced life where we live alongside others of all species as equals in respect of the right to live, with dignity and respect to all and no harm as far as possible. We are not told that we are trapped or lost in a simulation, controlled and unable to escape. We have no mind power or psychic gifts or any avenue of discovering our true home. We are taught to earn and buy to survive. With dairy milk spoiling every tasty treat, biscuit, chocolate, cake – we have not many options in vegan aisles but shopping less is actually a good thing if you decide upon spiritual awakening. A mindlul shopping list would probably be of fruits and fruit like vegetables in majority so that until we have time to contemplate, meditate and find a way back home, we engage less in the outer world.

    You would agree that if you were to shop for the extra items besides the frugivore list, that still is an awful lot of items already for those who go beyond frugivorism and indulge a little while shopping. And some people think veganism means there is less left for them to consume!

    Animal products
    Animal tested items
    Fossil fuels
    Non essentials
    Domesticating new animals as pets and slaves

    We do not need to fly for holidays, non-essential travel, to go all over the world on polluting vehicles and cause harm to nature and wildlife by using infrastructure, roads, petrol pumps and airports.

    There is simply no need for outside entertainment, television, cimena and mindless celebrity shows or social media, especially animal exploitation, zoos and media if we are happy alone and focused on spirituality.

    No need for large houses, cars and luxury items, perfumes of anything requiring you to accumulate money.

    There will be very less need to technoloy, gadgets or internet if we have a place to live and meditate in and fruits to consume as per necessity grown on soil that is not owned or usurped by harming wildlife.

    Meditation should be our work and purpose of life not on being ‘someone’ professionally but to discover the way out of the untruth, the simulation, the world we are encased in artificially into truth or home. Unfortunately our education system demands from us enslavement into a system of jobs, profitable business and useless consumerism, a chain very hard to break if we are unaware of it.

    If we were to focus on the items at top in frugivore lifestyle, we eliminate almost entirely our diseases, and dependency on the system of shopping, packaging, garbage and waste of time and resources. From then on we can focus on ascension and spiritual truth and healing. If we continue to be consumerists, highly dependent on the system and loyal to it, money focused, accumulating gold, cash and possessions, and not even vegan, there is little use of spirituality or healing.

  • Veganism Coronaviruses and Other Human Diseases: Part 4 Dangers of Dairy

    Veganism Coronaviruses and Other Human Diseases: Part 4 Dangers of Dairy

    A lot has been covered in this series of articles about various diseases and pathogens related to animal products and animal farming. A special mention needs to be made regarding dairy, for the simple reason that many lacto-vegetarians, believe themselves to be morally as well as health-wise in a good enough position, while consuming dairy products when the dangers of dairy are far too many to mention or cover in one article. We have already checked on possible connection to Diabetes, Cancers, Heart Disease, Parkinsons, Autism and several other concerns in previous articles in this series.Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3.

    Dairy industry has recently been contaminated with none other than the Covid-19 strain of coronaviruses leading to deaths and infections of employees such as in a UK farm. However the dairy industry has tried to ‘fight off’ the threats from coronavirus and attempted to fool consumers into believing that dairy products are nutritonally required and may even prevent diseases such as covid-19, a claim that was debunked recently.
    A research as far back as 2013 had detected coronaviruses in dairy products studied by random sampling of 100 samples. Upon detection of rota virus and corona virus antigens researchers found that processing of several cheese, yogurts and dairy products could not eliminate rota virus and corona virus as infected milk is used due to insufficient heat treatment and bad hygienic measures.

    However covid-19 is not the only risk. Research typifies that dairy products are frequently carriers of dangerous diseases such as leukemia (cancer) viruses that can affect human cells and cause various cancers such as breast cancer (Milk of dairy cows frequently contains a leukemogenic virus, JF Ferrer, SJ Kenyon, P Gupta, Science 28 Aug 1981: Vol. 213, Issue 4511, pp. 1014-1016 DOI: 10.1126/science.6267692). In 2007 according to a USDA testing report, Bovine Leukemia Virus or BLV is present on the majority of U.S. dairy operations with more than 80 percent of small or medium herd sized dairy units contaminated with BLV while ALL OF the large herd dairy farms had tested positive BLV in their milk tanks (100 percent). As descrided in earlier articles in this series BLV can also cause several other varieties of cancers such as lung cancer too. An independent follow research in 2015 established that BLV-DNA in breast tissues was strongly associated with diagnosed and histologically confirmed breast cancer, and as many as 37% of breast cancer cases may be attributable to BLV exposure.

    According to (the obviously very poor) international hygeine standards of developed nations, pus cells allowed in milk in Europe are 400,000 per ml, in USA are 750,000 per ml and bacteria 100,000 per ml, while in Australia there are no limits. The article linked herein contains graphic details of dairy industry as well as how poo may be normal in dairy with milk recalled only if has ‘too much poo’.

    The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board of UK has stated ont their website, ‘The list of potential diseases affecting dairy cows is almost endless with some diseases more significant than others.‘ Some of the ‘more common diseases’ enlisted (with many others naturally unlisted) were Tuberculosis, Brucellosis, Pneumonia, EColi Diarrhoea, Viral Diarrhoea, Leptospirosis, Salmonella, Septicamia, morbid viral Bluetongue, unexplained bleeding calf syndrome, sexually transmitted vaginal campylobacter causing abortions, utrine endometritis infections, viral herpes and conjunctivitis, abdominal displacement and inflammation, ulcers and lameness leading to foot trimming, foot and mouth blistering infection spread through milk, meat and breath leading to death, ketosis in milk and urine, John’s stomach disease bacteria that are heat, cold an drought resistant and can survive in soil for more than a year, and even longer in water, possibly linked with human Crohn disease (infected animals shed the bacterium in manure, colostrum, and milk), flatworm liver fluke (spreads to humans), bacterian mammary dermtitis (causes lesions which have a characteristic pungent smell, a moist exudate and dermatitis which are generally at the front of udder).

    Similarly another leading study finds that dairy foods must be monitored extensively to control pathogens as they caused 14% of foodborne illness and 10% of deaths during the period of 1998–2008 in USA alone making them the second largest source of foodborne illnesses (presumably after Norovirus most commonly found in seafood and plants contaminated with animal manure). But why have humans started consuming other animal’s milk, something that no other specie is foolish enough to consume?

    Cows were not always the tame and filthy species they are currently. The now extinct Aurochs (wildoxes) are the examples of animals that cows and bulls have descended from. A major internatonal genome study cited in University College London has concluded that all cattle are descended from as few as 80 animals that were domesticated from wild ox in the Near East some 10,500 years ago. Compare that with the 80 billion land animals killed anually just for food and we know the extent to which we have degraded our environment, deforested, caused wildlife extinction, slavery, cruelty, water, land and food shortage and a plethora of diseases leading to climate change as well as possible human extinction.

    The enslavement and hybridisation of species has led to creation of our domesticated cattle used for milk production and invariably slaughtered at the end of their life for beef and leather, both of which India is well known as among the largest top exporter of. As a by-product of artificial human-aided selection process of cattle, certain characteristics needed for survival in the wild have or reduced over thousands of years, including the capacity to look after and rear their infants and provide them emotional warmth.

    They are simply changed into an artificial species like other domesticated animals such as dogs and cats have also become, incapable of living a natural life. Humans are one of those too, artificially domesticated species now who are nothing like their original primate self, but trained to be artificially omnivore, sold lies about paleolithic stoneage ‘humans’ who wore leopards and ate up giant wooly mammoths instead of wearing leaves and ferns and consuming foliage and fruit that are plentiful, migrating into inhospitable climates and destroying nature by burning fuel, deforesting wildlife and domesticating animals.

    Domesticated species such as cows, also became increasingly diseased, having lost capacity to feel for themselves, look after themselves naturally and with diarhoea, pain, infections of udders, bloating, drugs, antibiotic resistance, several pathogens and discomfort, including stress of what else but losing their own children and being killed horribly and controlled severly throughout life so as to have no sense of freedom or joy.

    Cruelty in dairy industry is rampant with infants separated traumatically from mothers who bleat over several days as their infants are sent to slaughter if male and for sexual enslavement if females. Cows are inseminated forcefully which is no different from rape and are turned to breeding and milking machines while males are also sexually abused for semen collection if not killed for veal. In states of India where cow slaughter is inconvenient due to laws prohibiting the same, they are cruelly transported to states where it is legal or to neighbouring countries and skinned alive or killed cruelly for leather and beef.

    Inspite of all this rape and cruel slaughter, dairy industry has been edified by way of religious propaganda both in the east and west to fool people to become diry consumers although humans are generaly lactose intolerant and kind people who dislike animal cruelty. The article linked herin gives a rather lucid timeline of dairy.

    Pasteurization was introduced in the 1800s due to the terrible diseases and germs caused by dairy that was destroying human health. In the late 1990s due to pressure from economic cartels of dairy industry a food pyramid recommending daily servings of dairy was advertised through media to the ignorant masses in order to fool them further. Artifical bovine growth hormones were heavily passed off with controversial initial studies declaring that they do not pose risks to human health although major risk to human health was debated.

    However leading studies explain that pasteurisation is not always effective and need not destroy all foodborne pathogens in dairy products or the contaminated biofilms or industry workers exposed to raw dairy. Basically the very practice of rearing infected and diseased animals can cause spread of germs to human beings no matter how well you pasuteurise or cook the disgusting germ-filled items sold to ignorant masses using advertising and mal-education.

    Another study mentioned in addition that fungusy dangerous moulds, mainly of species of Aspergillus, Fusarium, and Penicillium can grow in milk and dairy productsproducing mycotoxins which can be a health hazard. yet people crave the stinking smell and dangerous taste of cheese which is basically coagulated pus and germs.

    Whether through dairy and other animal products and animal manure that contaminated edible organic vegetables, humans are in danger, especially due to dairy products as described in this scientific review. For example Listeriosis may not necessarily be controlled through pasteurisation and can cause meningitis, infectious abortion, perinatal septicemia or permanent mental retardation. Dairy industry states pasteurisation kills the bacteria, but the report mentioned there is some concern that in the intracellular phase (in leucocyte) it may survive conventional pasteurization. (The entire research seems to be sponsored by animal industry as the paper states – a contribution from the College of Agriculture, University of Wisconsin-River) and seems to an example of how the ‘dairy industry’ has fought off consumer awareness through advertising and PR campaigns to brush off the sagging image and to create ‘awaress’ about how they ‘control’ the numerous pathogens found naturally in diary and how they need to take ‘more efforts’.

    Due to mastitis, a bacterial infection of udders being painful and common in over 25-60 percent of cattle, antibiotics are also injected and are passed on to humans by way of animal products such as dairy as mentioned repeatedly in various studies.

    Clearly with so many germs in the udders and inside that go into milk and urine, vaginal and anal secretions that milk may be contaminated with, should dairy be merely pasteurised or just avoided altogether, especially when some of the germs and viruses cannot be killed through pasteurisation. We do not need dairy just as no other animal species needs to consume another species milk.

    How can it be that even when common sense tells any human being that taking secretions or dead bodies of an animal and consuming them will be impure, and plants are much cleaner. When so much evidence is there for not one but a plethora of diseases – that human doctors, leading surgeons, local physicians and international celebrities still consume dairy and other animal products?

    How can it be that we trust these great doctors and scientists when they are themselves totally unhealthy consumers of animal products and unaware of very basic and simple concepts – such as killing or breeding animals is sexually abusive (rape) and murder and thus morally wrong as well as unecessary. Or that, consuming animal corpses and secretions will cause significant pathogenesis due to germs as well as deadly diseases like cancer, diabetes and heart disease? How can it be that well educated and well-established people, politicians, businesspersons, teachers, lawyers, judges, doctors and medical scientists still consume animal products in their personal life – what credibility can they have if it is common knowledge that it is wrong, unethical and gross but they still refuse to even go vegan, which is such a simple change to make conveniently in modern life? And why do schools and colleges still serve dairy and other animal products and teachers mis-training children to continue using them in daily life?

  • Veganism vs. Coronaviruses and Other Human Diseases: Part 3

    Veganism vs. Coronaviruses and Other Human Diseases: Part 3

    Coronaviruses are groups of contagious pathogens that can infect respiratory tract causing flu like symptoms. Influenza and common flu are also from animal farming and now part and parcel of our human existence as we have normalised illnesses. Various studies indicate that most flus are due to animal pathogens such as varieties of coronaviruses already existing even before the novel covid-19 strains were found.

    1. Did you know that coronaviruses were found for the first time among chickens in 1930s and then in mice and jumped to humans in 1950s and 1960s followed by pigs as per scientific research papers?
    2. Another form of coronavirus in cows, BCoV was accidently discovered by Mebus et al at the University of Nebraska in 1972. They found that vaccinated calves in dairy and beef industry developed diarrhea later than expected with rotavirus, and their feces were free of that microbe.
    3. There are many different varieties of coronaviruses linked with animal agriculture including chicken, pigs, bats and camel related coronaviruses. While science papers inform us that coronaviruses have been connected with animals for a long time they refuse to educate the public about the importance of outlawing or banning the animal farming, exploitation and trading industries that we need to achieve immediately. Animal agriculture is also responsible for variety of ailments that cause suffering and death to humans and not just immeasurable pain to animals of other species.
      Two prior articles written by this author have examined plenty of medical research evidence to demonstrate how animal products are linked with several deadly diseases. A previous article in this series touched upon Bovine mad cow disease and human versions of Jakob’s disease, animal manure infections, toxoplasmosis, brucellosis, parasitic worms, eye diseases, type 1 diabates, AIDS, rabies, acne, eczema, dermatitis, skin cancer, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, while the first article in this series discussed several pandemics, osteoporosis, arthiritis, type 2 diabetes, coronary ailments, respiratory diseases and asthma, allergic rhinitis, sinus, cough, phlegm, thyroid dysfunctions, thyroid cancer, lung cancer, prostrate cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, bovine leukemia (dairy and beef virulent cancer), ebola, H1N1 swine flu, avian flu, MERS, SARS and coronaviruses.
      But can animal products also cause brain damage, ageing and nervous impairement? Some deadly examples are as follows.
    4. Prionic diseases of nervous system caused by animal protein are, as quoted within this science report,
      ‘Transmissible, progressive and invariably fatal neurodegenerative conditions associated with misfolding and aggregation of a host-encoded cellular prion protein and include those acquired by ingesting animal protein.’
      An example of the worst of its kind is the fatal disease of Kuru: A leading research paper describes prevalent practice of Endocannibalism (the eating of relatives) that was a component of certain tribal mourning rituals, in contrast to exocannibalism (the eating of enemies), which was also practiced elsewhere. The report quotes ‘When a body was considered for human consumption, none of it was discarded, except the gall bladder, which was considered too bitter. Meat, viscera, and brain were all eaten, marrow was sucked from cracked bones, and sometimes the pulverized bones were cooked and eaten with green vegetables.’
      This is exactly how people consume animal meat in the modern world even in so called civilized society, consuming muscle tissue, nervous tissue, body parts and disgusting remains of internal organs of dead animals. As humans are also sentient animals just like any other sentient specie is, the only difference between deadly Kuru culture of cannibalism and modern supermarket meat prodicts is that the dead bodies consumed are not of animals who died naturally but are those who were killed horribly for the purpose of food production.
    5. Alzheimers: One of the more well-known ailments linked with priones is Alzheimers, a progressive neurological impairement that affects mental health, memory, cognition and brain functioning caused due to adverse protein accumulation in nervous system. Leading research found that low AGE (toxins known as advanced glycation end products) diet, composed of carbohydrates (e.g., starches, fruits, and vegetables) instead of dairy and meat is helpful in prevention.
    6. Parkinsons: While animal proteins are terrible for mental health, minimizing exposure to these foods such as heme iron, beef and dairy is justified to eliminate Parkinsons as per science reports.
      Several studies showed intake of dairy was associated with Parkinsons risk.
      Old studies also demonstrated an indirect association between intake of dairy products and risk of Parkinson’s disease. One research conducted among 57,689 men and 73,175 women from the American Cancer Society’s Cancer Prevention Study II Nutrition Cohort established that dairy product consumption was positively associated with risk of Parkinson’s disease
    7. Autism: Dairy is frequently one of the foods eliminated in autism treatment success. Researchers noted the weaning times of 145 autistic infants compared with a control group of 224 normal children and found the disease developed where the incidence of breast-feeding was less frequent.
      Another important research has proposed that chicken consumption may be a causative agent of autism, the main suspects being hormonal and other growth-promoting agents.
    8. Psychopathy, Social Bias and Aggression: People are more likely to choose relating with humans who do not consume meat. In studies among omnivorous and vegetarian participants, all participants rated vegetarian targets as more virtuous and less masculine than omnivorous targets.
      However research studies have also indicated that carnism or meat eating is connected to right-wing authoritarianism and social dominance orientation, symbolic racism and sexism.
      Research also typifies that vegans and vegetarians are also victims of cultural and social bias from omnivores and carnists who are angry with their ethical views and are judgemental or prejudiced against vegans. In a study omnivores evaluated vegetarians and vegans equivalently or more negatively than several common prejudice target groups (e.g., Blacks).
      There are several other problems too caused by animal products, but not popularly ascribed to them due to lack of awareness, for example:
    9. Varicose Veins: According to comparitive research of various possible causes, it appears that the Western diet (meat, dairy, eggs, sugar) is the fundamental cause of varicose inducement.
    10. Skin Ageing and Wrinkles: A research on several studies has concluded that and whole food plant based diet is suitable for preventing skin aging. International aggregate research on skin wrinkling has found that a high intake of vegetables, legumes and olive oil appeared to be protective while a high intake of meat, dairy and butter appeared to be adverse to skin health and ageing.
    11. Allergies and Intolerances: Research on food allergy notes that milk, eggs, wheat, fish, soy and peanuts are most often associated with high allergic reactions in childhood.
      However while schools regularly ban nuts in their premises, milk, eggs and fish products are still permitted although they cause a significant number of allergies and intolerances being not naturally suitable to human digestive system designed to consume frugivore diet of fruit and fruit like vegetables. Schools also do not teach the truth to children and continue to spread misinformation that we need animal products and omnivorism.
      The issue of animal diseases and coronaviruses is massively connected. There have been a number of diseases among farm animals that are a danger to humans as well. Simply because we breed and confine them, and murder them needlessly.
    12. Farm Animal diseases: Other lesser known forms of prionic diseases include several variants of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease described in the previous article, which belongs to a group of rare and fatal brain disorders called prion diseases, vCJD is almost certainly caused by exposure to Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) or Mad Cow Disease a prion found in cattle.
      One of them is Chronic Wasting Disease that a report mentions is a disease affecting deer, elk and other antelopes with ‘concerns about any potential for CWD to affect other species, including humans’.
      The report goes on to elaborate that cooking does not destroy prions, and ingestion of another prion, the agent that causes bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), has been linked to a fatal human neurological disease. CWD prions have been found in muscle (meat), as well as other tissues of cervids, and could enter the food supply.
      Another one is Scrapies in Sheep: In the 1940s, more than 1500 sheep developed scrapie from receipt of a vaccine against louping ill virus that contained scrapie-contaminated lymphoid tissue. Other reasons – placenta and amniotic fluid of scrapie-infected ewes when fed to sheep and feces that leads to spread. A report on transmission of scrapie to transgenic mice expressing the human prion gene (Cassard et al., 2014) suggests that there may not be an absolute barrier to transmission of ovine scrapie to humans.
    13. Deadly Plagues: Caused by the terrible smells of rotten animal flesh, dismembered body parts of slaughtered victims, human fecus and animal manure that attracted rodents and infested human world through history due to lack of hygeine, plagues are as research shows, caused by a zoonotic pathogen spread via rats. Similar lack of cleanliness and pollution of our land, air and water is caused by animal farming, animal manure and slaughter even to this day and afecting not only non vegans but vegans as well. Animal farming industries are teeming the entire planet with parasites and deadly germs including viruses that are a threat to everyone, and contaminating our delicate environment with tonnes of slaughter waste, blood and fecus every second and forcing us to be unhealthy.
    14. Hepatitis Outbreaks and Norovirus pathogens: Hundreds of pathogens are associated with animal farming and especially fishing. Consuming marine animals be deadly for human health and economy. For example shellfish are the primary cause of Norovirus causing over 80 percent of all norovirus outbreaks, and 46 percent of Hepatitis A outbreaks.
    15. Malaria and Dengue: Several scientists have explained that deforestation such as destruction of Amazon rainforests for animal agriculture could be a leading cause in vector borne diseases such as malaria and dengue that threaten life and health.
    16. Dietary misinformation: Deadly diet trends such as Atkins, Keto and Paleo diets reliant on animal protein from dairy, meats and fish are of course a danger to every human who tries it with risks of extra fat and protein clogging your arteries, gall blader and kidneys, leading to a plethora of diseases including cancers, heart diseases and diabetes as animal products are well known to cause.
      On top of all this we have coronaviruses and other pandemics that make earth unliveable even for the healthiest animals who are trying to simply because others continue to pollute the atmosphere and cause deadly toxic pathogens to be released by the unnecessary criminal industries of animal farming and fishing. The severe mental deterioration of human society prevents governments, politicians, businessmen, citizens and justice system from thinking rationally and banning animal farming which is the only sane and rational step to take.
  • 9 Contradictory Statements by Ethical Experts versus Vegan Gurus

    9 Contradictory Statements by Ethical Experts versus Vegan Gurus

    Although Ahimsa is a sankrit term for non-violence adopted by some verbally, it is rarely practiced by humans in actuality. Neither do most Jains collectively speak against evil dairy or refuse to altogether consume its products, even after learning all about its violent rape and abuse of cows, calves and bulls, nor do most Hindus and Buddhists who talk about Ahimsa practice veganism and plenty of them are non-vegetarian. With veganism becoming popular and with the consisted efforts of Veganuary that is again in feature this month, we have of course all been enlightened on the way consuming animal farmed products directly causes horrific suffering.

    The following geniuses and masters who are international luminaries have at times verbally advocated compassion and equality of all beings, but do they always seem to practice the same ethics they preach?

    SCIENTICE GURUS AND RATIONALISTS

    1. Richard Dawkins

    Celebrated pioneer of evolution and ethology, famous for alleged anti-semitic sentiments, maintains that other animals feel more intense pain than humans as explained here and promotes veganism. He also also speaks of lab meat of animals and human meat. Yet he was not vegan after all these years of knowledge saying he is trying to be vegetarian but eats meat outside home.

    2. Jane Goodall

    World famous global researcher, ethologist and primatologist Jane Goodall while advocating veganism, promoting PETA campaigns is clear that coronavirus happened due to lack of respect for animals in this Plant Based news article. However she seemed to like rennet from murdered baby calves too much to go vegan as per her reditt interview on Ask Me Anything quoted here describing a love of cheese. In another news feature she insisted that she is virually vegan ay home but finds it difficult on the road and is not vegan but plant based and clearly calls herself vegetarian not vegan in the following clip.

    1. David Attenborough

    The man behind the very acclaimed documentary Life on Our Planet who promoted love for nature and advocated diet change is not vegan himself and has quoted in a recent interview “I do eat cheese, I have to say, and I eat fish.” He admits he is not even vegetarian and believes we are biologically evolved to ‘eat everything’ in his own words in the following interview clip:

    1. Neil DeGrasse Tyson

    The luminary asrophysicists who has been captivating audiences has been reported in a page to have tweeted that cows are machines invented by humans to convert grass to steak and you can listen to this statement in his own voice in the clip below with audience responding with resounding claps loud cheers and laughter, as he went to justify that instead of plant based diet we should find another way to physically remove CO2.


    Phew, that was disgusting, but scientists usually rely on knowledge instead of heart based conscience. But what about voices of some very illustrious saints, masters and world renowned spiritual experts.

    SPIRITUAL GURUS AND RENOWNED EXPERTS

    1. Louise Hay
      A leading figure behind the popularity of new age spirituality including planetary compassion and love shared her favourite chicken and salmon recipes and probably refused to understand ethics and morality of animal exploitation as explained in her facebook recipes to us ‘dear ones’. A favourite recipe video shared below displays the headless body of a brutally murdered bird on her kitchen tabletop which she and her authors proudly advertised is an ‘organic pasture fed locally murdered’ chicken and ‘very healthy’ as a dead bird could be. The way they spiritually ‘massage’ the brutally killed chicken saying ‘we love you more when you are cooked’ is nothing but horrible, all to promote a book ‘Loving Yourself to Great Health’.

    6. Sadhguru
    Well known turbaned guru featured in media the world over to promote chakra meditation and teaching not to eat meat, he claims in one of his best known speeches that cows should be ’employed’ for milking because this is a human world and there is no place for cows to be except on farms. He believes that if they are not exploited for milking they will have to be slaughtered immediately and eaten up (thereby completely ignoring the lack of ethics and prevelance of rape in dairy and displaying sheer ignorance of animal farming secrets). He has also seems to believe as per another video linked here that it is best to eat fish as it is a ‘simpler animal’ explaining that less evolved animals have poorer ‘memory codes’ compared to mammals, who are more complex and ‘closer to you’ and thus completely ignores sentience of fish.

    7. Eckhart Tolle

    In the interview clipped below Eckhart Tolle clearly does not promote vegan sentiments, infact he makes fun of the concept and wrongly quotes that Hitler was vegetarian, and avoids the main question which was Ahimsa by saying that he listens to his body when he goes to supermarkets to buy foods and buys whatever ‘body opens up to’.

    8. Dalai Lama

    One would expect the leading proponent of Buddhism to care about animals and to condemn rape and exploitation of animals, however he seems to consume meat regularly and of course dairy including ‘mare’s milk’ and ‘yak tea’. It appears according to this source that he gave up meat temporarily in India but continued consuming dairy, developed hepatitis B infection and was strongly asked to resume eating meat by his physicians. Recently he chose to be a verbal ambassador for world animal day encouraging plant based diet for environment.

    9. Mooji

    The famous speaker and guru has been criticised by others for controlling minds and converting vegetarians to non-vegetarian by his coercive brainwashing methods in a medium feature. In the following QandA session he explaines to a follower why she should not feel sad for animals while diverting attention to humans who suffer so much due to their own ‘projections’, claiming injured animals are enjoying existence and to not volunteer in a sanctuary but to continue to listen to his satsang, insisting that being vegetarian or non vegetarian has nothing to do with awakening. He claims that it is only a light of ‘knowledge’ from Buddha that is worthy, not deeds of compassion.

    There maybe many others for instance,

    Leaving behind the ordinary, there are also inspiring examples such as the following spiritual masters:

    Deepak Chopra: The renowned author who published recipe books featuring ‘consumption of every type of taste’ including dead salmon and chicken in the past, patiently says he is a vegetarian since the last few years due to his awareness of animal suffering owing to the way meat was manufactured, and aspiring to go vegan’.

    Osho:

    Has sternly stated that non-vegetarianism is just like cannibalism and is inhumane. He has also explained that until humans continue to consume animal products including cow’s milk, we will not rise above sexual and sensual tendencies as cow’s milk is for the cow’s infant and taken through sexualisation of bulls leading to their cruel slaughter as explained in his discourse featured in the vegan publication.

    Thich Nhat Hanh:

    The famous Buddhist monk and poet speaks about the importance of compassion and need to focus on reducing the suffering of animals by watching videos that expose animal farming secrets.

    Unlike some of the bad examples you can of course join the few who are morally consistent and Go Vegan today, if you are not already one, and encourage other to do so by trying Veganuary. It does not take any time or a great amount of effort as vegan options are too many to count. All you need is simply an understanding that animal farming is based on heinous crimes of rape, enslavement and murder so that you do not want to have any hand in evil. Please inspire others to be morally consistent with their beliefs in ahimsa instead of merely following ignorant masses. Let us no longer be victims of evil animal farming conglomerates and archaic systems of spiritual and scientific confusions that are no longer valid.

  • Modern Science to Replace the Dark Arts of Animal Farming

    Modern Science to Replace the Dark Arts of Animal Farming


    Imagine this: Your non vegan friend is munching a chicken nugget and you, a passionate vegan activist are celebrating that moment. Why? The nuggets are manufactured through use of stem cells collected from a happy living animal (possibly from a sanctuary) painlessly, infact from a feather shed naturally off the bird. No exploitation, no injection, no procedure whatsoever – and now it can be all grown in plant based serum medium. And through just that one sample – 10,000 pieces or more can be manufactured of chicken tissue that does not just taste like chicken, it is chicken, just without causing pain – buches of tissues grown in labs, flesh that does not have any nervous system, purely meat, not a sentient animal who is abused, farmed or killed but simply meat… no rape, no slavery, no slaughter.

    Similar cell technology using stem cells from cows can be used for producing beef that saves the life of not only that cow but 10,000 other cows without even requiring the farming, domesticaton or breeding of a single cow, leave alone the gory process of slaughter that unfortunately has been prevalent since centuries even till now.

    Dairy milk and eggs can be manufactured using cell culture without hurting or harming any creature, infinitely…can you imagine how even the most obstinate carnivore, omnivore or vegetarian can now sign our petition to outlaw breeding and slaughter of animals linked below: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/556039/

    Leather, fur, silk, wool, everything without hurting, harming or enslavement of a single animal – without animal farming – therefore all the more reason to outlaw all forms of animal slavery, abuse and exploitation without any reason to debate or argue about the same.

    I know what you are thinking, you prefer plant based food and so do I (in addition to vegan) simply because we are naturally frugivore as apes and it is much healthier and tastier (in my opinion) to eat plants.

    But do you feel that it is better to vote for this kind of lab meat or other animal products that hurt, exploit and kill NONE and still gets classified as animal meat or animal product, compared with the horrific, outdated and rudimentary system of breeding and slaughtering animals?

    We shudder to imagine poor chickens going though hell, kept in filthy so called free range farms, where they hardly have space to move. Millions of females stacked on smelly shelves to produce eggs and unable to see the sunlight in factory farms and battery cages. Birds shackled with metal clips upside down after repeated sexual abuse to be beheaded soon on being scalded in hot boiling water. Male chicks cruelly dropped by the millions into macerator machines where sharp blades grind them alive even as they look helplessly around for their mothers, fully conscious and just hatched out of eggs. This is what you pay for when you purchase eggs or poultry. But you would call me judgemental if I told you the truth because you do not want to feel directly responsible for causing the pain and suffering (although you ordered and caused the crime) and you still want to consume animal products instead of a plant based alternative to chicken or egg replacer?

    Think about the cows that are raped repeatedly to produce babies who are cruelly pulled away from them immediately upon birth and then killed if male with a shotgun in their head, chopped horribly for veal, while females are sexually abused and impregnated just as their mothers for milk production, till they cannot take it any more and fall down to be sent to a slaughterhouse and their throat slit cruelly with them at times thrashing their legs about wildly in pain, watching a pool of blood streaming out of their neck. This is what you may very well be paying for when you purchase dairy products. But you want to be a proud ‘vegetarian’ for the last 45 years and strangely unable to buy oat milk or delicious plant based cheese alternatives even now?

    Female pigs are raped and then spend most of their preganancy in cold steel cages or farrowing crates and their babies newly born moving around them as the mothers cannot even move an inch to feed them or cuddle them, the babies taken away and bashed on concrete or anally electrocuted for meat called ‘sucking pigs’, or more commonly killed in masses in gas chambers as they scream out horribly. This what you pay for when you buy pigs in blankets and ham, pork and bacon. But ‘bacon though’ is all you say?

    Animals are heaped together in thousands of numbers after being skinned alive for leather and fur. But you show them off as ugly fashion and third class status symbols, calling them ‘bio-degradable’ instead of faux fur and stylish plant leather?

    Sheeps bleeding for wool. Thousands of silkworms boiled alive for a bit of soft fabric. But you like the ‘feel of it’ instead of the vegan alternatives that feel exactly similar?

    Little bees raped, evicted from their homes and massacred for stealing honey. But it is ‘ayurvedic’ medicine and maple syrup won’t do?

    Fish are plucked out of their beautiful watery homes, away from their loved ones, and suffocated to death, often hacked with bloody knives fully conscious and in great pain. This is what you pay for when you buy fish fillets. But you are ‘just pescatarian’ because going vegan and buying fishless fillets made of plants is so hard for you?

    The vaccination and life saving drugs you are waiting for, in the name of human welfare and virus eradication for covid-19 and oher germs may be from animals such as unborn baby cows killed cruelly in the womb of their slaughtered and raped mothers, besides being tested on monkeys who suffer incredibly. Yet, you believe the suffering of humans is more important to heal even at the expense of very graphic cruelty and death to other species?

    None of these horrific crimes (or products) are necessary, yet these crimes are legal even in so called ‘good’ countries, the developed world. If we still have animal farming and fishing how developed can we be? Plant based foods are nutritionally adequate and can be used to manufacture varieties of delicious meals on the planet including pet food, without compromising on taste and nutrients. Plant based vaccines using plant based serums are completely possible

    The darkest of evil has no comparison with animal farming and fishing that put every other crime or cruelty known to humans to shame. What if all of this evil crime of animal breeding and slaughter can be avoided through modern science thereby preventing the entire abnormal concept of farming and fishing?

    Especially when some people refuse to be frugivores and insist they cannot live without animal products (citing medical reason and stating doctors say they will die without animal protein) – an actual heated, although I suspect fraud argument received from an Extinction Rebellion activist this year at Parliament Square London to scare me off my petition – the option of lab made cell propogation technology could help us outlaw the animal farming and fishing industries for good without those nasty arguments.

    Another more popular or obvious benefit of stem cell technology is that we can produce vaccinations and medical equipment without exploiting a single animal and even human cells can be cultured for helping in surgery and saving lives. Currently surgical sutures are implants involve animal slaughter to obtain animal tissue, vaccines use animal products and fetal bovine serum made of pregnant cows and their killed fetuses which is wrong, when we have a technology that can use human stem cells to produce all possible medical products and surgical goods.

    What are your views? Do you feel that lab cell culture is the right step forward and will it ever be positive enough to be acceptable to the strictest of vegans although still not suitable for plant based dieters?
