Spiritualism is Science as it has many benefits to counter negative Human Emotions. It is a Science which makes you see the Wholeness as Oneness. It is a Science which makes you understand the Reality of Nature. It is a Science which makes you Happy, Peaceful, Live the Moment and not have Regrets of Past and Worries of Future.
All this can be achieved in the path of Yoga and Vedanta. It is a second birth. I believe this was the reason for calling Brahmins as Dwijaas - second born.
But this Knowledge is not taught in Schools, Colleges and Universities. Only few bump into this when in the class room of Life they get enough knocks and they look for the answers and hit upon this after constantly trying.
This is the knowledge of Buddha and Buddha-hood and he preached Non Violence.
But Alas, the Indian Poets, Writers, Artistes and Scientists who question Govt's step in banning Beef - or encouraging Vegetarian Diet - is met with Falsehood. There is science behind this which only a very knowledgeable person who knows Science, Biology, Chemistry, Bio Chemistry and the knowledge beyond to understand this. Imagine if you can eat raw meat just after killing? Imagine eating your pet who got killed? Animals with 2 pair of eyes, 2 pair of ears/gills, 1 mouth/trunk, 4 limbs and so on only show they are our DNA Relatives and Consciousness Relatives. Like any good or bad habit. if you kill once, the next killing becomes easier. If you drink blood first time, it is hard but next time it is easier. It is conditioning. But it takes you towards Violence and Violent State of Mind. It is like Pakistan harboring Terrorists as State Sponsor Craft but now it is consuming itself.
India is the Spiritual Mother of the Word. This is the land where this Science was established by so many seers over so may years. I have seen people from all walks of the world congregate at Yoga and Vedanta Ashrams to get this Knowledge and they also turn to Vegetarianism.
There are enough Research to show how Cancer, Chicken Guniya, Bovine Flu, Mad Cow, Kru Diseases and Auto Immune Issues and Inflammations are linked to meat based diets - and eating meat of DNAs closer to ourselves.
