In regards to eating meat

I think what is being overlooked with your statement is the fact that we have more than one self and the average Man thinks of the ego as the self. That is where the evils of self gratification come into play. Ego tends to put self gratification above needs.

If you sit back and look at the populace, what percentage do you think communicate with their soul, not to mention asking what it needs? Or better yet, how many even know how to communicate with their soul? Some that think they do tend to think a feeling is a communication, which can happen from any source of influence, lol even gas.

Good points, Pickle. I agree that, ultimately, we should trust what resonates, provided we have sincerely sought our highest guidance. But, all too often, the philosophy of "If it feels good do it" is used as a replacement for earnest seeking.
