During My Interview

When Eric Prescott and crew were here taping my profile it became evident that Eric was intrigued by my proclamation that I was "still evolving."
"Still evolving into what" he wanted to know.
I feel the answer is well defined by the President of the Self-Realization Fellowship, Sri Daya Mata, from the little book, Sayings of Yogananda:
"...the purpose of life is the evolution, through self-effort, of man's limited mortal consciousness into God Consciousness..."

The Vegan Peace Declaration

Thank you dissidentvoice.org and Lee Hall for making us think about the terms we use in clarifying animal-rights concepts to others.
Please visit their site and also friendsofanimals.org where I was able to find their link.

THE FACE ON YOUR PLATE

by Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson.

Here's a favorite excerpt:

"It is a bit puzzling why we feel that something not like us deserves less respect. That it's death is less troubling."



A reviewer of the book on the Amazon site says: "Here, here. Some people think fish are vegetables. You know those people who say, "I'm a vegetarian but I eat fish." Those people really need to read this book. "
