Pranamam Swamiji, I have heard in a discourse of Zakir Naik that we have the canine teeth to eat flesh and one more argument he is putting forth is that it is more sinful to hurt a handicapped than a normal person. Here, he is comparing the handicapped person to plants(plants exhibit pain as per Sir. Jagadish Chandra Bose) and normal person to animals. Then, he is asking the question, now which is better , non veg or veg? Is he right? To be honest it sounds logical and makes sense. Please let us know your views. Hari Om.

Medical science has proven beyond doubt that the human body anatomy is that of a vegetarian, more correctly fruitarian (living on fruits and nuts) looking at our digestive enzymes, nature of the intestine, the teeth etc. What you eat is not a matter of what you believe in, it is about what is good for your body. Human body cannot digest meat completely. Hence it decays (putrefies) in your intestine to create cancer. Note the large number of Colon cancer patients in Western Countries and Northern Kerala. Now, as per our scriptures, to kill and eat an animal that has thoughts or vasanas will cause you to accrue some of its karmic burden. Hence vegetarianism is advised for someone who is in the spiritual path. Even otherwise, health reasons have forced a lot of Westerners to become vegetarian or vegan. Hari Om.
