We must remain strong and clean
The human journey is from animal nature to divine consciousness. All creatures feel pain and desire life, yet they live and die in conflict. Humans evolved slowly, gaining knowledge and a form distinct from animals. With this came the realization to not kill or harm, to be good to all beings. This purity of non-violence and respect is the core quality that elevates. It began in India with religion, yet many now have forgotten, killing animals and each other, persisting in animal nature. Consider Jesus, who embodied this purity, not eating meat. We are now that Jesus. We must be strong. We are in Kali Yuga, a hard time where killing is rampant, even of motherly cows. We must remember purity: do no harm, do good for all. Start in small acts, like feeding birds and ants before yourself. Be strong, tell your family, and live as God's children, doing only God's work.
"Then the realization arose within: 'I will not kill any of us. I will not do wrong to anyone. We will be great, we will be good to all living beings.'"
"And so, this is like, now this is Kali Yuga’s coming. So, my dears, we should, we will help me. We should be hard, and your father, your mother, tell your mothers, tell your mothers, fathers, your brothers."
