The 1st Middle East Vegetarian (MEVEG) Congress, Part 44 of a Multi-part Series

“‘The Birds in My Life.’ When I see this book, it’s a wonderful view into the animal kingdom, especially birds. We love birds, but we don’t know them. And when we read this book, we can get this – they all have different feelings, like humans, and we can know them better. I would like to suggest to all people, all children, all adults read this book, this wonderful book. Thanks to Master Ching Hai for this wonderful book!”

“It was a great honor for us to actually have the Supreme Master communicate with us. Her messages were definitely very enlightening, and She created awareness for some facts that some people did not know about. She has definitely left some thoughts with people to start living more consciously and really making an effort to protect the environment and the world that we’re living in.”

“We are from Our Own English High School, Sharjah. And we’ve come here, and we’ve got this beautiful surprise with us, which is ‘The Birds in My Life’ donated to us by Loving Hut, and I think it’s a wonderful gesture on their part. I’m sure the children are going to be very, very happy about this collection in their library and for their personal use because I think it’s got wonderful, colorful pictures and it talks about ‘love animals.’ And I think it’s also there to promote vegetarianism because it boils down to that, loving animals and not killing them. Be a vegan.”

“Hi, my name is Tony. And Supreme Master Ching Hai’s talk today, and the interaction was really a remarkable inspiration for me. Because She’s absolutely right that indeed most of the world’s greenhouse gases, the largest source of emissions actually come from farms that breed animals for human consumption. So, we spend so much of time developing fuel efficient cars and other ways to save energy, but here is a solution staring at us in the face.”

“My name is Zaufy, Zaufyshan, and I was the emcee for the MEVEG Congress, and other than that I’m a motivational speaker and a TV show host. And this is the first time that I was in contact with Supreme Master, and it was nice. I think Her message was really wonderful, making people think that we can save the planet by such a simple choice as changing our diet.”
