Creating a Vegan World, with Tobias Leenaert (vegan), Part 2 of 2

To understand Tobias’s strategic approach, it helps to look ahead to the future. In his book, “How to Create a Vegan World: a Pragmatic Approach,” Tobias explains that change goes both ways. “So, let’s make sure that people know about the alternative, and this we could do by changing their behavior, or by giving them good food, or providing good food first, and then their mind will be a better breeding ground, or a more fertile ground, for these moral arguments and other arguments to sink in.”

Our Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan), has mentioned that a vegan diet can help bring out our innate compassion. “Veganism is not just about the animal-people’s suffering, but it’s about our own love and compassion. Then we remember it. We uncover that again, so that quality will shine forth, will be nurtured, will grow big.”

Tobias’s strategy has been very effective in encouraging omnivores around the world to become flexitarians. Thanks to the diligent work of ProVeg International, which currently has branches in ten countries across four continents – Asia, Africa, North America, and Europe. The ProVeg International has set a goal to reduce the global consumption of animal-people’s products by 50% by 2040. “So, the better strategy, I think, is to see what is interesting and relevant to the person we are trying to influence.”

We would also like to remind you that it’s imperative that you go all the way and adopt a vegan diet and lifestyle, as this is the minimum human standard expected by Heaven, as explained by our Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan) when she shared with us why the “End of the World” did not take place as predicted in 2012. “The planet is saved, but the people still have to live up to humans’ real standard, in order to preserve a human’s world, according to Heaven’s mandate. If we don’t, then we will have to bear the consequences, or our future children will have to.” “The screening process will always continue, until at least humankind has changed to a better standard, to the real human standard, with love, compassion, and peacefulness coexisting together.”
