Hope Apple Blossom and her six piglets were rescued from slaughter by @vivacharity and @dean_farm_trust (be sure to follow & support!). This is their first experience of the outside world and of their forever home. Every time we purchase animal products we take away this freedom from an animal. We take away their happiness, their joy, their autonomy and ultimately we take their life. We take everything from them, all for a meal that we forget about as soon as we’ve finished eating it. Please choose freedom for animals, by choosing #vegan. . . . . #bacon #baconsandwich #baconandeggs #baconpancakes #baconlovers #baconcheeseburger #baconislife #meatpizza #meatballs #sausagerolls #hotdogstand #porkchops #porkbelly ☸️ 🙏🏿. 🙏. 🕉 . . . . . . . . . . #DharmaVoicesForAnimals #DharmaVoices4Animals #VoicesForTheVoiceless #Kindness #BeKind #BeCompassionate #FriendsNotFood #FirstPrecept #DoNotKill #DoNoHarm #Bodhisattva #Bodhisattvas #Vegan #GoVegan #VeganForTheAnimals #VeganForThePlanet
DVA Interview with Bob Isaacson and Jetsunma Tenzi DVA Interview with Bob Isaacson and Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo. On Saturday, June 16, DVA President Bob Isaacson traveled up the California coast to meet in person renowned Buddhist nun Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo. In this video clip of their meeting, Jetsunma shares with Bob: 1) why not eating animals is at the core of Dharma practice 2) that teachers are such important examples for their students that they must be particularly careful to eat a compassionate diet 3) that even though flesh eaters may not actually kill the animals they eat, they are quite involved in the process that leads to great suffering and the death of each animals they consume. Also, from 2:05 to 3:13 of this clip, Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo gives a heartfelt endorsement of DVA and our mission. ☸️ 🙏🏻 🕉 . . . . . @jtenzinpalmo . . . . . #DharmaVoicesForAnimals #DharmaVoices4Animals #Dharma #FriendsNotFood #BeCompasionate #1stPrecept #FirstPrecept #DoNotKill #DoNoHarm #NotJustHumans #Bodhisattva #Kindness #Compassion #Vegan #GoVegan #VeganForTheAnimals #VeganForThePlanet #PlantBased #Bodhisattvas #VeganHealth #Buddha #Buddhist #BeKind #VeganHealing #Meditate #Meditation #Metta #LovingKindness

Posted @withregram • @govegandva As well as hum Posted @withregram • @govegandva As well as humans ,animals also like to feel love and kindness. Animals are so helpless specially as they are not capable of expressing about their sicknesses or going to a doctor by themselves. So Dharma Voices For Animals designed this special veterinary care project which initially takes place in temples Island wide to treat free of charge to the innocent helpless animals who live in temples. We are so happy as we get so many possitive feedback about this program. ☸️ 🙏🏿. 🙏. 🕉 . . . . . . . . . . #DharmaVoicesForAnimals #DharmaVoices4Animals #Dharma #VoicesForTheVoiceless #DharmaVoicesForTheVoiceless #BeKind #BeCompassionate #DharmaVoicesForAnimals #DharmaVoices4Animals #Dharma #FriendsNotFood #BeCompasionate #1stPrecept #FirstPrecept #DoNotKill #DoNoHarm #Bodhisattva #Vegan #GoVegan #Kindness #VeganForTheAnimals #VeganForThePlanet #PlantBased #Bodhisattvas #VeganHealth #Buddha #Buddhist #BeKind #Compassion
