By e<strong>at</strong>ing me<strong>at</strong>,you are killing a soul who is in <strong>the</strong><br />

process of evolving towards God.<br />

Guru Ji has said,<br />

Thou killest life<br />

and deemest th<strong>at</strong><br />

as a religious act;<br />

Thou, tell me<br />

<strong>the</strong>n, O my<br />

bro<strong>the</strong>r, wh<strong>at</strong><br />

calls thou an<br />

irreligious act<br />

<strong>Sikhism</strong> st<strong>at</strong>es th<strong>at</strong> he who can give<br />

life, has <strong>the</strong> right to take away a life.<br />

The person who cannot give a life –<br />

has no right to kill an animal. It is<br />

only God who has <strong>the</strong> power to<br />

grant and end a life as He pleases.
