Master’s Words
Going Veg Is Enough
to Save the Planet

Spoken by Supreme Master Ching Hai
Monaco, May 4, 2008 (Originally in English)

 

Even if everyone in the whole population of the planet eats only half vegetarian, we can save the planet already. That’s the best and the quickest way. Because meat is not only about the land, it’s about the water, medicine, energy, pollution from transportation, and the conscience; that’s what makes people sick.

So if you can tell people to be vegetarian, that’s the best thing you can do for them and for the planet. Then we can even keep all the airplanes; we can keep all the cars; we can keep all the things now, because CO2 is not as bad as “conscience sickness,” and not as bad as spending so much water on animal raising, and wasting land, and deforestation and transportation. If we eat vegetarian, we still can keep all the airplanes, cars, trains and even everything as usual. We don’t even need to rely on the government, because the government cannot always do everything. The government cannot forbid people to eat meat, for example. Maybe they can, but they don’t want to do it.

So, the individual is the best to save the planet. Just go vegetarian, and we’ll save a lot of methane gas, a lot of transportation pollution, a lot of wasted water and land - land that we can cultivate, with enough food for everyone. And the food we feed the animals, we can feed the hungry. We would never go hungry. The whole planet can be fed if people go vegetarian. And then we can even keep all the styles that we have now, like the airplane. Of course it’s the best if we don’t. But even if we still have cars, airplanes and trains and so on, if the planet’s people are vegetarian, then we can save the planet still. Not everyone knows that. So, tell whoever you can to save the planet. But even if we cannot, then we cannot.

One more thing about the climate that everyone worries about: If we have the blessing of the government, it would be good. But otherwise, everyone can do it. Just be vegetarian, and we can save it. We can save a lot. Because of the bad karma, “As you sow so shall you reap,” if we do bad things, then we get bad things. It’s not just about the physical energy or even the ways of war and all that. The bad karma will come back on us, and no one can save us, not even God. Because even if God tells us to do this and we don’t do it, Hes lets us be free. If you want to make a mistake, it’s your freedom. God is not someone who controls you all the time. It would be good if Hes does some controlling, but Hes doesn’t do that.

So we have to control ourselves; we have to know what’s good and what’s bad. Read the Bible or the scripture of your religion. Really study well to see what the scripture tells you to do. All the tips in any scripture of any religion tell you how to survive here, how you can save the planet, how to live well and how to go to Heaven afterwards. It’s all in the scriptures; it’s not me saying anything.
