Vegetarianism


One must have heard innumerable discussions on this very topic and most of us feel that here judgement falls undoubtedly in favour of vegetarianism. Arguments such as an individual's freedom to live and grow, ecological disbalance and inability to regain the lost animals come to rescue vegetarianism. Lets have a look from a diffrent dimension.
If living right activist talk about the pain and sufferings of animals, how can they oversee the same caused when fruits, cereals, leaves are torn off from a plant's body. It has been well established that plants too feel pain as animals do. If living right activists fight for animal life then why not for plants and make humans starve to death????
The truth, though bitter , is that we donot have a hold on these natural processes. Nature has created a cycle called food chain that takes care of the ecological balance that we humans are striving hard for . The very fact that our digestive system has the ability to digest meat is itself nature's consent to humans to be non vegetarians.
Some may argue that killing of birds and animals for meat has caused a disbalance in natural ecosystems and is gradually disturbing the food chain. But i don't get it how do poultry farms that intentionally make chickens breed in large numbers and make them available for meat disturb the environment . Let me make a point clear i'm focusing on non veg food and not justifying the killing of animals like kaziranga rhinos for their horns .
A very well known rule of nature 'survival of the fittest'; as every other intelligent species who rules over species inferior to him, man too has the right to indulge in actions that do not disturb the ecology to a state that would harm him . I am not against vegetarianism. In fact i do respect individual ideas of an individual but what i have to say is b'ing non vegetarian is not a crime!!!!

Nothin special...But....

Another morning starts..... and this time again as i had expected, the sun was right above my head. But not even this could have made me wake up. It was roomie's scream cum reminder about the major's papers being distributed at 10. I hurried with my toothbrush to the washroom but still lingering in my mind were the plans i had made from 2 weeks before the 'xams to go out on a jog and feed a bit of my precious tummy to mother nature.
The thought now seems more and more unrealistic as two days have passed by since the majors ended and i have wasted them on stupid stuff..... atleast i'm happy that i spent my last night more productively than the night prior to it when i was listening to some bullshit by an equally disgusting person.....annnaaaaaa...... lets not spoil the day thinking about him.
Waiting at the insti we were completely drenched by sweat, ... not our's!!! but of people around us!! The holy bath finally ended and we entered the room . I was relying a lot on this paper as but things hardly turn the way you want them to !!!! ...All my hopes for a decent grade were shattered ..... had i been my normal self my tears could have even drowned famine stricken villages. But now i have stopped worrying .... I call it " sab moh maya hai "(" every desirous object/abstraction is merely an illusion -- for those who are weak at Hindi).But i couldn't resist myself from abusing the invigilator who didn't allow me to borrow a sharpener . I even called his mom a lesbian. Finally i was back in my room and yippeee !!! i have finally started blogging.
