Number Of People Have Said To Me,

We Must Live Harmoniously With Our Neighbors.

The Right Way To Deal With Mental Unhappiness Must Be Within The Mind Too. On An Emotional Level, Anger, Fear And Worry Bring Unhappiness. Scientists Say They Eat Into Our Immune System. On The Other Hand, We Are Also Equipped With A Sense Of Affection And Compassionate Concern For The Well-being Of Others.

Of Course, There Are Different Truths On Different Levels. Things Are True Relative To Other Things; "long" And "short" Relate To Each Other, "high" And "low," And So On. But Is There Any Absolute Truth? Something Self-sufficient, Independently True In Itself? I Don't Think So.

I Do Not See Any Reason Why Animals Should Be Slaughtered To Serve As Human Diet When There Are So Many Substitutes. After All, Man Can Live Without Meat. It Is Only Some Carnivorous Animals That Have To Subsist On Flesh. Killing Animals For Sport, For Pleasure, For Adventures, And For Hides And Furs Is A Phenomenon Which Is At Once Disgusting And Distressing. There Is No Justification In Indulging In Such Acts Of Brutality . . . Life Is As Dear To A Mute Creature As It Is To A Man. Just As One Wants Happiness And Fears Pain, Just As One Wants To Live And Not To Die, So Do Other Creatures.

Religious Belief Is Not A Precondition Either Of Ethical Conduct Or Of Happiness.
