Terbaru Maha Guru Ching SELAMATKAN BUMI: JADI VEGAN, BERTINDAK HIJAU Wejangan Guru Menjadi Vegetarian Cukup untuk Menyelamatkan Dunia Oleh Maha Guru Ching Hai, Monako, 4 Mei 2008 (Asal bahasa Inggris) ika semua populasi di dunia ini menjadi setengah vegetarian Jsaja maka kita sudah dapat menyelamatkan planet ini. Itulah yang terbaik dan itulah cara yang tercepat. Karena daging bukan hanya mempengaruhi lahan, tetapi juga air, obat-obatan, energi, polusi transportasi, dan juga suara hati; hal-hal tersebut yang membuat orang sakit. Jadi bila Anda dapat memberitahu orang untuk menjadi vegetarian, hal itulah yang terbaik yang dapat Anda lakukan untuk mereka dan untuk planet ini. Kemudian kita masih dapat tetap menggunakan pesawat terbang; kita masih dapat tetap menggunakan semua mobil; kita masih dapat tetap menggunakan semuanya itu, karena CO2 tidaklah seburuk “penyakit hati nurani”dan tidak seburuk menghabiskan air untuk industri peternakan hewan, dan pemborosan lahan, pembabatan hutan, serta transportasinya. Jika kita berpola makan vegetarian, kita masih dapat tetap menggunakan semua pesawat terbang, mobil, kereta api dan bahkan semuanya seperti biasa. Kita bahkan tidak perlu tergantung pada pemerintah, karena kadang mereka tidak dapat melakukan semuanya. Pemerintah tidak dapat melarang orang untuk tidak makan daging contohnnya. Mungkin mereka bisa, hanya saja mereka tidak ingin melakukannya. Jadi pendekatan individu adalah cara yang terbaik untuk menyelamatkan planet ini. Jadilah vegetarian dan kita akan menghilangkan banyak gas metana, banyak polusi dari transportasi, menghemat banyak air yang terbuang, dan melindungi lahan-lahan yang dapat ditanami untuk memberi makanan semua orang. Dan makanan yang kita berikan kepada hewan-hewan, dapat kita gunakan untuk mengatasi kelaparan. Kita tidak akan mengalami kelaparan lagi. Seluruh isi planet dapat makan dengan cukup bila semua orang menjadi vegetarian. Dan kemudian kita masih dapat terus menjalankan gaya hidup kita yang sekarang, seperti naik pesawat terbang. Memang lebih baik bila kita tidak menggunakannya. Namun meskipun bila kita tetap menggunakan mobil, pesawat terbang, dan sebagainya, tapi jika semua orang bervegetarian, maka kita masih dapat menjaga planet ini. Tidak semua orang mengetahui hal ini. Jadi, katakanlah kepada siapa pun untuk menyelamatkan planet ini. Tapi jika kita tidak dapat, maka kita tidak dapat melakukannya. Satu hal lagi yang dikhawatirkan orang mengenai perubahan iklim: Jika kita mendapat berkah dari pemerintah kita, maka itu akan bagus. Tetapi bila tidak, semua orang dapat melakukannya. Jadilah vegetarian saja dan kita dapat menyelamatkannya. Kita dapat menyelamatkan banyak sekali. Karena ada karma buruk, “Apa yang kau tabur itulah yang kau tuai,” jika kita melakukan banyak hal yang buruk, maka kita akan mendapatkan hal yang buruk pula. Hal ini bukan hanya 2 Majalah Berita Maha Guru Ching Hai No. 199 SELAMATKAN BUMI: JADI VEGAN, BERTINDAK HIJAU Wejangan Guru tentang energi fisik atau cara terciptanya perang dan lain-lain. Karma buruk akan kembali kepada kita, dan saat itu tak ada yang dapat menyelamatkan kita, tidak juga Tuhan. Karena meskipun Tuhan mengatakan kepada kita untuk melakukan sesuatu tetapi kita tidak melakukannya maka Ia juga memberikan kita kebebasan. Jika Anda ingin membuat suatu kesalahan, itu adalah kebebasan Anda. Tuhan bukanlah seseorang yang mengontrol Anda setiap saat. Mungkin akan baik jika Ia yang melakukan beberapa pengontrolan, tetapi Ia tidak melakukannya. Jadi kita harus mengontrol diri kita sendiri, kita harus mengetahui apa yang baik dan apa yang buruk. Bacalah Alkitab atau Kitab Suci agama Anda. Pelajarilah baik-baik untuk melihat apa yang dikatakan Kitab Suci tersebut untuk Anda lakukan. Inti dari Kitab Suci semua agama mengajarkan Anda bagaimana cara bertahan hidup di sini, bagaimana Anda dapat menyelamatkan planet ini, bagaimana hidup dengan benar, dan bagaimana cara pergi ke Surga setelahnya. Kesemuanya itu terdapat di dalam Kitab Suci; bukan saya yang mengatakan hal tersebut. Untuk melihat diskusi ini secara lengkap di Supreme Master TV silakan mengunjungi situs berikut: http://video.Godsdirectcontact.net/magazine/BMD640.php Kata Mutiara Maha Guru Peningkatan Rohani Ching Hai – Edisi Baru (Bahasa China/Inggris) disi terbaru Kata Mutiara dari Maha Guru Ching Hai telah Editerbitkan, buku ini menawarkan kepada para pembaca sumber kebijaksanaan spiritual yang berharga dan abadi yang dilengkapi dengan gambar-gambar yang baru dan indah. Tema-tema yang sederhana namun dalam yang terkandung dalam kata-kata Guru diperindah oleh pilihan gambar yang luas, apakah itu foto terbaru Maha Guru atau gambar yang indah dari bunga, pohon, dan para satwa. Wawasan dan inspirasi Ilahi yang klasik ini akan membawa kita kepada penghargaan yang lebih besar terhadap pesan-pesan Cahaya dan harapan Tuhan, serta memberikan kunci kebijaksanaan di dalam batin kita. Seperti yang disampaikan Maha Guru, “Guru berarti kebijaksanaan yang maha kuasa di dalam diri kita sendiri, kebijaksanaan yang tidak terbatas, kualitas cahaya yang tidak terbatas, dan kehidupan yang tidak terbatas dalam diri kita. Sekali kita mengingatnya, kita tidak lagi memiliki rasa takut akan apapun.” Majalah Berita Maha Guru Ching Hai No. 199 3 SELAMATKAN BUMI: JADI VEGAN, BERTINDAK HIJAU D A F T A R I S I 2 Wejangan Guru Menjadi Vegetarian Cukup untuk Menyelamatkan Dunia 3/28/54/73 Peningkatan Rohani /89/91 Panduan Kesehatan Baru dalam Kembali ke Cara Hidup yang Alami dan Sepantasnya / Cangkir-cangkir Burung yang Indah / Kata Mutiara Maha Guru Ching Hai - Edisi Baru (Bahasa China/Inggris) / MP3 dan MP4 Terbaru Maha Guru Ching Hai (untuk diunduh) / CD Terbaru Maha Guru Ching Hai / DVD Terbaru Maha Guru Ching Hai 5 Lintasan Peristiwa Belanda / Republik Cekoslovakia / Swiss / Inggris / Chili / AS / Nigeria / Jepang / Korea / Singapura / Hong Kong / Malaysia / Au Lac / Indonesia / Formosa / China 27 Situs WWW Kuan Yin 28/59 Guru Menceritakan Lelucon Apa Manfaat Seorang Ayah? / Mendapatkan Pesan 29 Laporan Khusus Jadilah Vegetarian dan Ciptakan Kembali Surga / Perjalanan Menyentuh Hati dari Maha Guru Ching Hai: Pameran Kesenian di Atas Bumi / Konferensi Internasional SOS Perubahan Iklim Pertama di Hollywood, Kalifornia, AS / Pesan Kecil: Dalam pembicaraan mengenai Tuhan, atau Perbuatan Baik Memperoleh Balasan Berkah / Konferensi Video Perubahan Adi-Insani, Guru menginstruksikan agar kita Iklim Internasional yang Mengangkat dengan Maha Guru Ching Hai menggunakan istilah muasal nirkelamin untuk 42 Era Vegetarian menghindari perdebatan tentang apakah Tuhan itu adalah Wanita atau Lelaki.

    DISSERTATION PROFESSIONALIZATION, FACTIONALISM, AND SOCIAL MOVEMENT SUCCESS: A CASE STUDY ON NONHUMAN ANIMAL RIGHTS MOBILIZATION Submitted by Corey Lee Wrenn Department of Sociology In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Spring 2016 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Michael Carolan Lynn Hempel Michael Lacy Marcela Velasco Copyright by Corey Lee Wrenn 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT PROFESSIONALIZATION, FACTIONALISM, AND SOCIAL MOVEMENT SUCCESS: A CASE STUDY ON NONHUMAN ANIMAL RIGHTS MOBILIZATION This project explores the intra-movement interactions between professionalized and radical factions in the social movement arena using a content analysis of movement literature produced by the Nonhuman Animal rights movement between 1980 and 2013. Professionalized factions with greater symbolic capital are positioned to monopolize claimsmaking, disempower competing factions, and replicate their privilege and legitimacy. Radical factions, argued to be important variables in a movement’s health, are thus marginalized, potentially to the detriment of movement success and the constituency for whom they advocate. Specifically, this study explores the role of professionalization in manipulating the tactics and goals of social movement organizations and how the impacts of professionalization may be aggravating factional boundaries. Boundary maintenance may prevent critical discourse within the movement, and it may also provoke the “mining” of radical claimsmaking for symbols that have begun to resonate within the movement and the public. Analysis demonstrates a number of important consequences to professionalization that appear to influence the direction of factional disputes, and ultimately, the shape of the movement. Results indicate some degree of factional fluidity, but professionalization does appear to be a dominant force on movement trajectories by concentrating power in the social change space.

    FROM Veganism: A Truth Whose Time Has Come http://thevegantruth.blogspot.com August 2015 I'M A VEGAN Essay Collection ~ vegan diversity The following selected essay winners that comprise the I'm a vegan collection were the result of an online essay contest, and some were contributed for the book that will follow. The essays reveal that there are religious vegans and those vehemently anti-theist. This compilation exemplifies that vegans are Protestant and Pagan, Abolitionist and Anarchist, African and Asian-American, World-Record-Breaking vegan athlete and self proclaimed 'vegan-fattie', in-your-face activist and introvert, anti-natalist and mothers, punks and professionals, who come in all ages, races, and nationalities. However, there is a golden thread that binds them (and all vegans together). They have stopped their demand and support of animal exploitation, as far as possible. I'm a vegan lifer. ~ Coby Siegenthaler, Northridge, CA. ~ 90 years old When I was born in the Netherlands 90 years ago, my parents raised me vegetarian since birth. When I was in nursing school, I met an engineering student at a vegetarian club meeting. He too was raised vegetarian. We fell in love at first site. Together we took our love for animals to the next level and took our vegetarianism to the next level and became vegan. We got married, moved to the United States, and had two wonderful children. We began having vegan potlucks at our house every month for many years. In those days, the entire L.A. vegan community could fit in our living room.

  • A History of Veganism from 1806
    1 World Veganism – past, present, and future By John Davis, former IVU Manager and Historian A collection of blogs © John Davis 2010-12 Introduction This PDF e-book is about 8mb, 219 pages A4, (equivalent to 438 page paperback book), so I strongly recommend that you save a copy to your own disk, then open it in the Adobe Acrobat Reader. That way, you won’t have to download it all again if you want to read more of it sometime later. Creating this as a PDF e-book has several advantages, especially if you are reading this on a device connected to the internet. For example: - in the blog about interviews on SMTV, just click on the links to watch the videos - in the bibliography click to read a complete scan of an original very old book. - on the contents page click a link to go direct to any item, then click ‘back to top’. - you can also, of course, use other features such as search, zoom etc. etc. - a great advance on printed books… It should work on any device, though an ipad/tablet is ideal for this as there are lots of big colour photos, or on smart-phones try rotating for best results, on a larger computer monitor try view/page display/two up, to read it like a book. The blogs were posted weekly from February 2010 to December 2012 and each is self- contained, with the assumption that readers might not have seen any of the others. So feel free to start anywhere, and read them in any order, no need to read from the beginning.
