    In this discourse, two questions have been answered by Om Swami.
    The first question asked was- As killing is considered bad, is it wrong to kill insects and other bugs which enter our home?
    Om Swami says that according to him if one is living in the city and insects enter one’s home then they should take measures to keep them out, in whichever way, for if not then they will cause an infestation which is a big problem.
    The second question asked was- Is it ok to tell someone who is eating something which they think is vegetarian, but which is not (out of ignorance or maybe choice), that what they are eating may not be vegetarian?
    Om Swami says that it is perfectly ok to tell them as we don’t know if it is due to ignorance or choice. It is good to inform them and they can then decide about it he says.
    Listen to the video completely to get a proper understanding of this topic.

    01:42 Why was Ramakrishna Paramahamsa beating the mattress with a stick?
    04:26 Does eating non-vegetarian food make a person a lesser human being?
    11:55 Can people get desensitized towards the pain of others?

    Swami Ji is a generous myth buster. Loved this multi dimensional discourse on such issues that lead to self condemnation and guilt to the person who indulges in these so called vices. But Swami Ji’s practical answer shall save many the ordeal of feeling guilty . Thank you Swami Ji and Jai Mata Di🙏🏼

    Thank you so much, Beloved Om Swamiji, for your Wisdom. I don't know why people get so fanatic when it comes to certain arguments, like vegetarian or non vegetarian. The second question is also very important, you remind us to become more aware of what we are buying/eating. With infinite gratitude.🙏

    Pranam Swamiji, you are so right in your view. Santatan dharma has clearly mentioned that "these insects are born to die" hence donot pollute your mind thinking the right/ wrong of doing the act. They have no influence in your spiritual growth. Thank you for being so clear in your teachings.Your teaching speaks volumes about the depth of your knowledge Swamiji. Immense love and respect at your holy feet 🙏

    If you want to turn people kind, just start being kind before them.
    I'm gonna give you a real life example. And I hope, you (whoever is reading my comment) will inculcate this in your life.
    I live in a colony where most people were very harsh on stray animals once upon a time. I could do nothing but request them to be a bit kind whenever I witnessed them hitting an animal.
    I kind of lost all hopes and accepted the fact that they are just impossible.
    But I, my family members and our neighbours continued to feed the stray and be extremely loving towards them.
    Perhaps you won't believe but trust me, after 1-1.5 years. They are completely changed. All of them treat them with love.
    At least, they don't hit them/harass them anymore.
    May be it's God who helped those poor stray animals.
    ❤️

    Ultimately only those who are highly sensitive or emphathetic by heart without any formal spritual initiation also develop dislike for non veg food even if from generations their families are eating and relishing it. It is sensitivity and compassion level which determines all .

    But, Swamiji, can we say that Kali Yuga is in such a state only because of all the bad karma accumulated by such carnal desires, lust and greed of majority of humanity? I think so. Hence, if we don't mind mosquito bite and let it go as a pain and suffering due to the karma of existence, it'll speed up our process to attain moksha I guess.
