Mankind's overwhelming enjoyment of animal food thus daily increases its accident and killing karma. But this karma, along with the remaining karma people have inflicted upon themselves through their unloving relationship to their neighbour, whether in the form of egoism, intolerance, hate, revenge, murder or killing, will thus, as already previously pointed out, change people's mentality by virtue of the faculty for humaneness that hereby begins to develop in them. A certain group of people has already begun to abstain from animal food, some of them for health reasons. They have thus become vegetarians out of consideration for themselves. It is not out of pity for the animals. Others have become vegetarians for humane reasons. They cannot find it in their hearts to have the animals killed. One must thus regard these latter beings as the real pioneers, promoted by neighbourly love, for the abolition of mankind's bloody massacring and "cannibalism" of the animals.
