	Interview
		JS: India is basically vegetarian because all our scriptures, our gods and goddesses, and what ever we pray to is forth vegetarianism, for the reverence of life because we respect the life and if you respect the life you don't want to kill them and if you don't kill them you become a vegetarian.
		Vegetarianism is the basis in which the entire reverence for life building stands, the reverence for all life, not only for the human beings' but animals as well.
		So even in vegetarianism one has to limit himself, one has to understand what to eat and what shouldn't be eaten, and to act according to ones own body requirements.

	Vegetarianism from Filipino Vegetarian Recipe .Com
		Vegetarianism, belief in and practice of eating foods obtained exclusively from the vegetable kingdom, and hence of abstaining from meat and other animal foods.
		Humanitarian vegetarians refuse meat because they believe that the killing of animals is unnecessary or cruel, or that such a practice can conceivably lead to a disregard for human life; the trades that the slaughter of animals supports, such as butchering, are considered degrading.
		People who adhere to vegetarianism for health reasons believe that meat is harmful to the human body and that a purely vegetable diet is more nutritious.
