Compassionate Vegetarians, An Illustrated Journey

This book expresses the sentiments held by millions of people - people of wisdom and compassion - over countless generations, who have chosen to live without taking the lives of other beings, merely to sustain their own existences.Through simple aphorisms and gentle illustrations, it explains how these individuals have chosen a way of life, not merely a diet; how they have sought to live in peace with all beings with whom they share this planet; and how they recognize that only when humankind acts humane, caring, and justly toward all beings will there be peace on this planet. This book is their story.
