Humane Connection
Compassionate Living is about making conscious choices that benefit people, plants and animals. It is about coming together and starting a journey of learning that we are all connected. Most of us cannot make these connection for instance if we take the case of consumerism.
If you reached for shoes in a store and it said on the tag,this item was produced:
* By a laborer who is working long hours in substandard conditions and cannot feed her family,
* With the skin of a cow who suffered her entire life and was trucked to her final slaughter in a crowded truck, in extreme heat, with no water for seven days,
* By a leather producer who has polluted the river in a town where there are now an abnormal number of human birth defects and premature deaths from cancer and
* With dyes that were tested in the eyes and on the skin of rabbits,
Would you still feel okay buying those shoes?
Our Objectives
This is but one example of how our individual choice impacts lives of both human and non human. The examples can be endless: use of plastic, cutting down forests, burning crackers, endless choices and infinite impact.
Compassionate Living has following objectives:
1. Rediscovering traditional lifestyle
2. Reverence to life through kindness & humane education
3. Spreading universal peace through spiritual growth
