00:00Separate a human mother from her baby and you see the suffering.
00:05It's very apparent.
00:06Separate a cow from her calf and the suffering is much the same.
00:10We don't want to die, the animals too don't want to die.
00:12We feel pain, we suffer, so do animals.
00:16We are inseparably connected.
00:19And the name of the connecting tissue is consciousness.
00:23So that's what.
00:24You hurt the other, you are hurting yourself.
00:26It's not even a matter of emotion.
00:28It's not even a matter of sympathy.
00:31To help them see, you kill the other and you are killing your own possibility of joy, fulfillment, liberation.
00:38Don't you want that?
00:39In some sense, the chicken is gone.
00:41It won't suffer anymore.
00:42But you have condemned yourself to enhanced future suffering by just doing what you did.
00:48It's bad.
00:49You disrespect the consciousness there and you have disrespected your own consciousness.
00:54And if you disrespect your consciousness, how will you ever bring it to fulfillment?
