Ahimsa and Yoga related to God's Commandment Thou Shall Not Kill

Yes, first of all the commandment is very clear. Do not kill, do not commit murder and that’s does not say anything about species in that scripture it just says do not kill. The fact that we have mistaken that it means only humans is silly because that’s just our own mistranslation of the Bible.

What God said is as clear as day, Don’t kill, so that’s amazing a scripture. You hit the nail in the head and a lot of times depending on the person that I’m adjusting I’ll explain to them that there are multiple reasons for this. Understanding, one of them is physiologically, its your body, the other one is mentally—psychologically and the most important one is spiritually. This is the most spiritual thing you can ever do. When you start eating vegetatian.. eating according to your biological design you are eating according to God’s laws. God’s laws are your biological design how else can it be so when you eat according to that you eat according to God’s laws it’s like the world just unfolds for you because everything is now clear. I speak in spiritual terms all the time.

I have studied Jesus Christ very thoroughly and found a couple of books that probably you may not have found In my studies that describes Jesus Christ as a healer and the way that He healed is teaching your body what to eat, fasting people. –stop eating certain things stop creating abominations in your body—I can give you the resources if you’re interested in the study. It is called the Essene Gospel of Peace.

I’m a universal spiritualist so I believe Jesus Christ was the most incredible person ever—I’m Jewish so I don’t have that different definitive kind of thing but I have an unbelievable respect for Jesus Christ so I’ll always speak about Him as a God that he is. And then I also see basically all other spirituality as the same thing to me spirituality is life itself and it’s sure connection with God. God is nature in my little world. So when you start eating according to God’s laws it’s very interesting on all different kinds of levels so as I have absolutely spiritual reasons for this are clear. I come from Jewish world where they talk about kosher meat and to me that is the funniest thing I have ever heard. That’s just comical you can’t have kosher meat. We should not be putting a spiritual label such as Kosher on dead animals. God didn’t talk about killing animals in the right way (Kosher) or the wrong way (unkosher). God said Don’t kill, don’t inflict pain on another living being for no reason, we’ll talk about that but it is a spiritual argument, spiritual feeling.

In Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, it is the first foundational aspect of the Ashanga Yoga System. The foundation fo the eight limb path of Patanjali is Ahimsa.
