Animal killing for food

Killing animals for eating(food)is not very far away from killing human beings for food. They differ only in body,shape & colour. but remember it is the same life that you are destroying. The earth is perfectly capable of giving us the requisite food. With new technology one can make it as tasteful as one wants. Killing life forms for taste is disgusting. One cannot become a Buddha,  or a Theerthankara or have purity of consciousness : The Buddha had told his Bikshus ,accept whatever given to you in Bhiksha,don't reject it. Rejection is an insult to the  alms giver : If you start choosing then you will accept only the good & reject the bad. He wanted his disciples to eat whatever they get,good or bad,He exhorted them not to throw the bad(or anything) One day a flying bird dropped a piece of meat into the begging bowl of a bikshu,he was in doubt as to what to do, eat it or throw it? As per Buddhas orders,if he throws it away, then he would make it an exception,  slowly slowly exceptions become a rule. If he eats it then he would be eating meat & become a Non-Veg. H e is not allowed to throw it. He ate it. Many of his followers thought that it is permissible to eat meat. They became non-veg from veg. In China,Japan ,Korea & Tibet, Buddhists became non-vegetarian, the whole of Asia except parts of India became non-veg. It appears even Buddha was a non-veg. Dalai lama is a non-veg, he demanded beef,when he was on a visit to America(,much to the surprise of Americans,who thought he must be a Veg)
