Spiritual counseling for hunters and fishermen
A FREE, volunteered, PAY IT FORWARD inspired, reaching out project.
This project is not intended for humans who live in extreme, harsh climate places on our planet who have no other alternatives to feed themselves but through taking a life of another living being. Where spiritual compromises and agreements have been made for spiritual purposes as you shall discover for yourself through studying the materials included in this page.
It is solely addressed and offered only to those humans who live in areas where growing and accessing REAL FOOD is possible.

It is solely addressed and offered only to those humans who live in areas where growing and accessing REAL FOOD is possible.
This project offers tremendous valuable spiritual insight and solutions, delivering a highly important, healing message. A true eye, mind, heart, soul awakening and healing for those who have temporarily forgotten their TRUE divine essence and origin. Causing pain in other souls is inflicting pain on our very souls. Hurting other beings means hurting ourselves.
Real, permanent change should not take place within us for fear of spiritual backlash and fear of suffering, coming back to us through the causality law, through the emotional and physical pain we've caused to other living beings.
Real, permanent change should only come from the inner desire to live in harmony with all life around us and knowing that causing harm to another is actually causing harm to the whole and implicitly to ourselves.
Consider this material as a spiritual and humanitarian gift to help you rediscover your true inner essence and ORIGINAL spiritual identity before you have become and labeled yourself a "hunter" or "fisherman".

Real story:

Back in 1996 I've started to read books about life after death, near death experiences, out of body experience, karma, reincarnation, life between lives, etc...
in one particular book among many, one particular chapter got my attention: it was about a guy who had a severe car accident and went into a coma...
while on the operating ER table, he went outside of his physical body and all of a sudden found himself standing face to face with a huge screen which played 3D images (sound/feelings included) with the MOST ESSENTIAL moments in his life...particularly those moments when his actions influenced others' lives...both POSITIVE and NEGATIVEamong the things he'd experienced, the most shocking for him was, quote:
" FEELING TENTHFOLD EVERY pain of EVERY bug I’ve ever killed...emotional, physical"...I had no idea how much PAIN I’ve caused without even being aware of and how amplified all that pain was coming back within me, at all levels” END of quote

needless to say, he returned into his body a changed soul...
So many beautiful souls are unknowingly being trapped into a lifestyle that it doesn’t resonate with their Divine origin and purpose.
This information will help you at spiritual level more than you could ever imagine.
Are you a human who is making a LIVING through KILLING other sentient Beings?
KILLING for a LIVING?
KILLING for PLEASURE, “SPORT”, EGO?
Do you enjoy preying on innocent, unsuspecting defenseless beings with camouflage, behind the trees and bushes, armed to the teeth with deadly weapons? calling it "sport"?
when sport means WILLFUL, fair participation of BOTH parties, equally armed or prepared for the game...
Do you get off feeling great about overpowering innocent defenseless sentient beings?
Ever wonder what would LIFE AFTER DEATH be for us?

Problem/Solution
HUNTING:
why do people hunt?
for eating MEAT because they believe people need animal protein and that we are omnivores or because they like the taste?
because they live in harsh climate conditions (North Pole) and this is the only food choice?
because they enjoy preying on innocent, unsuspecting defenseless beings with camouflage, behind the trees and bushes, armed to the teeth with deadly weapons? calling it "sport"?
when sport means WILLFUL, fair participation of BOTH parties, equally armed or prepared for the game...
are hunters killing other beings so they can sell the meat and make a living?
for all these questions and more, there are plenty of helpful informative tools to offer a basis for a different perspective on life in general and what else is outthere...
while they hunt, do they think that the animal whose live gets abruptly interrupted is SOMEONE's father, mother or child? do hunters have families of their own?
who takes karmic responsibility for forcing a soul outside the animals body, against his/her FREE WILL to live FREE with his/her family, a FULL life?
unless one has chosen to live at the North Pole and extreme cold areas, where compromises are made for survival purposes, for all of us who have access to REAL food (aka fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts and seeds), eating meat is optional and coming with a causality tag attached to it, always...
Universal laws are universal and never come with exceptions, amendments, clauses and privileges for one specie over the other...
Do you play GOD in deciding how to manage wild life population control...
how can they BEAT nature in intelligence?
WHO ever created those beings don't you think that they have sought out BEFORE HAND the proper living conditions for those beings?
how can they BEAT nature in intelligence?
WHO ever created those beings don't you think that they have sought out BEFORE HAND the proper living conditions for those beings?
well, let's hope that when the time is up to face your life playing in front of your eyes through the LIFE REview process after YOUR time is naturally up, standing face to face with your live events, you will feel proud of your achievements and that the karmical debt you accumulate won't be a huge burden to carry around in other lifetimes to follow...
NATURE NEVER DOES ANYTHING MORE THAN SHE CAN SUSTAIN...
just WHO is man to take on the role of GOD replacing NATURE to WIPE OFF MILLIONS of sentient beings each year?
if it was natural for humans to eat meat, they'd hunt with bare hands and devour the animal, blood, veins and intestines ON THE SPOT...no cooking, period..it's all in those links
if you hunt for food in milder climates where all other real food is available, is not a good enough excuse any longer as now we have endless food choices and alternative meat sources and non animal protein sources (which vegan bodybuilders successfully use///it's all in the links)
if you hunt WITH PLEASURE of stalking and killing, even if for food, you've got problems
"Trophy" hunters are in the worst possible situation
they have no idea what awaits them when their time is up and have to respond for their mindless heartless actions, for the SPIRITUAL CHECKS AND BALANCES…aka LIFE REVIEW, EVALUATING process
or what goes around comes around
what you sow you shall reap
law of cause and effect
there is absolutely no glory and no reason to flunt your manhood when you stalk innocent gentle beings, robbing them of THEIR GOD GIVEN LIFE AND FREEDOM, disguised with clever and cowardly camouflaged wear, armed with guns and even then, hiding behind trees...WHERE exactly is the MANLY ness?
a more FAIR GAME would be to walk barehands and no guns face to face with an elk and moose or bear and carry on in an EQUAL GAME
what kind of sick "sport" is this? What kind of “glory”? What exactly have you accomplished to feel so mighty proud?

Ask yourself WHY do you REALLY HUNT, RAISE and KILL other BEINGS?
For FOOD? To EARN A LIVING?
For “SPORTS” aka SAKE OF KILLING? For pleasure?
IF you hunt/kill for food, a mountain of evidence below will help you to surpass this detrimental age old belief system, that we need ANIMAL foods to live HEALTHY, LONG LIVES.

For “SPORTS” aka SAKE OF KILLING? For pleasure?
IF you hunt/kill for food, a mountain of evidence below will help you to surpass this detrimental age old belief system, that we need ANIMAL foods to live HEALTHY, LONG LIVES.
Unless you live at the NORTH POLE, where is just about THE ONLY place where hunting is necessary for survival.
Whatever your reason for TAKING animal lives, spiritual causality is something all of us will face once this current physical is over. IF you hunt for the pleasure of KILLING, then, you are in a big self created SPIRITUAL mess for this essay will walk you through the reasons why.
However, SOLUTIONS are also offered so now
YOU HAVE A CHOICE
Which can save your very soul.
You are on your own now that you know. Not knowing is not an excuse any longer.
Human and spiritual maturity and evolution is an inevitable part of this Universe.
CAUSALITY
What is Causality?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causality
OR
ACTION-Reaction
CAUSE-EFFECT
WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND
As you sow so shall you reapMeaning
Your deeds, good or bad, will repay you in kind.
Origin
From the Bible, Galatians VI (King James Version):
Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
UNIversal Golden rules:
” Do not harm”
“Do onto others what you want others do onto you”
“Thou shall not kill”
And these UNIversal rules extend and expand towards ALL living beings. Whatever shape or form they may inhabit at any given time throughout a constantly evolving expanding UNIVERS.
God did not create UNIversal LAWS with CLAUSES, EXCEPTIONS, AMENDMENTS and small print. They apply for ALL beings towards ALL beings, HUMANS INCLUDED.
Sooner or later, as you shall discover below and through your very own future experience, each soul is accountable and responsible for his/her very own karmic deeds, to which we will give account when our time is up.
Consuming, using any animal based foods and products holds us karmically responsible for direct or indirect participation to the animal holocaust, presently taking place on our planet.
Spiritual karmical universal tribunal cannot be bribed nor deceived nor bypassed. With US being the supreme judge, we will also benefit from a jury of guides who will help us easier evaluate our spiritual, human, karmic checks and balances so that proper, fair, just evaluation can be made with regards to all involved. Our experiences will repeat time and again until we get it right.

KARMA
What is Karma?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karma
'Thou shalt not kill any living thing,' for life is given to all by God, and that which God has given, let not man taketh it away. ~Jesus, Gospel of the Holy Twelve
"But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat (Genesis 9.4-5)
Wherefore I say unto all who desire to be my disciples, keep your hands from bloodshed and let no flesh meat enter your mouths, for God is just and bountiful, who ordaineth that man shall live by the fruits and seeds of the earth alone. JESUS; Gospel of the Holy Twelve; Lection 38
"And the flesh of slain beasts in his body will become his tomb. For I tell you truly, he who kills, kills himself, and whoso eats the flesh of slain beasts, eats the body of death." ~ Jesus, The Gospel of Peace
"Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of something to eat." ~ Romans 14:20
"Thou shalt not kill," Exodus 20:13 - Deuteronomy 5:17
"He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man." (Isaiah 66.3)
"LET NO FLESH MEAT ENTER YOUR MOUTHS" (JESUS: Lect. 38, GHT) *
Man's fate is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; man has no advantage over the animal. Everything is meaningless. All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all shall return. Ecclesiastes 3 18-20

WHY be a VEG?
To awaken from the cultural trance of omnivorism we need only remember
who we are.
We have neither the psychology nor the physiology for predation and
killing, but due to the culturally indoctrinated mentality required by
our daily meals, we eat like predators. We become desensitized,
exclusivist and materialistic, forgetting that we are essentially
consciousness manifesting in time and space. As consciousness, we are
eternal, free, and benevolent. May all beings be free and at peace, Will Tuttle (World Peace Diet)
there are many other planes of existence/dimensions in this ever
expanding 900 trillion yrs + in the making UNIVERSE of which all souls are part of regardless of their current form...
be certain that in higher realms, beings don't kill each other for
food...food is energy...the type of energy food we crave gives us an
insight of the type of consciousness frequency we manifest...the above
articles outline with evident proof why we've never been designed to eat
flesh and definitely why not we are not even omnivores, let alone carnivores
our stomach acids are slightly acidic necessary for vegetables, legumes,
fruits, nuts, seeds and herbs digestion (carnivores' stomachs have a
very strong acid necessary for meat digestion)...our canines are very
short, for HARD fruits and vegetables, nuts and seeds chewing...we move
our jaws side to side when we masticate(like herbivores) not up and down
like carnivorous animals...
our digestive tracks are long, allowing the veg/plant based foods to sit
in there without the danger of getting rotten and make us sick, vs the
carnivores digestive tracks which are very short, thus making it
impossible for the decaying dead flesh to stay in there for too
long...we have no claws and no long canines which carnivores are using
when consuming the prey...humans use artificial tools like GUNS to
kill...they don't go out there, bare hands, chasing on foot the
prey...catching it and tearing it apart with his claws and teeth...we
have thin neck spaces vs. carnivores which have THICK neck spaces,
allowing them to ingest HUGE CHUNKS of meat with little chewing...
so, here it is from the anatomy/physiology perspective...
from the
spiritual perspective, be certain that killing is still killing...
whenever you take a life, there's always a mother
or a child left behind to suffer after that member of their family is
being hunted...and no matter how “respectful” or “JUSTIFIED” the killing may be (you assume) the pain of life loss cannot be replaced...also, the SOUL of each animal,
being FORCED out of his/her body by the abrupt shot will remain in
distress for unknown time, for life was untimely interrupted and the
business unfinished...
animals have YEARS life spans...they've been INTELLIGENTLY and PURPOSELY
created to LIVE THEIR ENTIRE LIVES and to die NATURALLY, just like humans
a plant lifespan is seasonal...whether we consume it or not, the plant
dries and is falling off, becoming organic natural compost and next year
all over again
picking up fruits from a tree doesn't kill the tree...
hunters have taken things a bit too far when playing God, deciding the
animals faith and dis-ease prevention by KILLING...
why not letting NATURE and its INTELLIGENT DESIGN do this work as
suppose to?
NATURE is highly intelligent and has her own laws of operating and
cleansing, as she has always did for unspoken trillions of years
the intelligent energy power behind creation is looking after things in
cooperation with the creation itself which is US
we've been given life to respect and protect it
in this infinite universe, there's a lot more going on than it meets our
limiting 3D 5 senses...

Dr. Will Tuttle "World Peace Diet"
We universally condemn supremacism, elitism, and
exclusivism for destroying peace and social justice, yet we
unquestioningly and
even proudly adopt precisely these attitudes when it comes to animals.Dr. Will Tuttle http://worldpeacediet.com/
“We need never look for universal peace on this earth until men stop
killing animals for food. The lust for blood has permeated the race
thought and the destruction of life will continue to repeat its
psychology, the world round, until men willingly observe the law in all
phases of life, ‘Thou shalt not kill.’” – Charles Fillmore, “The
Vegetarian,” May 1920
"As long as there are slaughterhouses, there will be battlefields." –Leo Tolstoy
"Our task must be to free ourselves . . . by widening our circle of
compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and
its beauty."
"Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances of survival for
life on earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet."Albert Einstein
"For as long as men massacre animals, they will kill each other. Indeed,
he who sows the seed of murder and pain cannot reap joy and love."Pythagoras, mathematician
Auschwitz begins wherever someone looks at a slaughterhouse and thinks:
they're only animals. Theodor W. Adorno
A FUNDAMENTAL DEBACLE
True human goodness, in all its purity and freedom, can come to the fore
only when its recipient has no power. Mankind's true moral test, its
fundamental test (which lies deeply from view), consists of its attitude
towards those who are at its mercy: animals. And in this respect mankind
has suffered a fundamental debacle, a debacle so fundamental that all
others stem from it. Milan KunderaSee
Energetic ripple effect
Looking from a variety of perspectives at our animal-based meals,
we discover that eating animals has consequences far beyond what we
would at first suspect.
Like a little boy caught tormenting frogs, our culture mumbles, “It’s no
big deal,” and looks away.
And yet the repercussions of our animal-based diet are a very big deal
indeed,
not only for the unfortunate creatures in our hands, but for us as well.
Our actions reinforce attitudes, in us and in others, that amplify the
ripples of those actions
until they become the devastating waves of insensitivity, conflict,
injustice, brutality, disease,
and exploitation that rock our world today. Will Tuttle "World Peace Diet"
"But for the sake of some little mouthful of flesh, we deprive a soul of the sun, and light, and of that proportion of life and time they had been born into the world to enjoy."Plutarch of Chaeronea (ca. 100 C.E.)
"Non-violence leads to the highest ethics which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are all still savages."Thomas Alva Edison, inventor
"If a man aspires towards a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from injury to animals."Albert Einstein
"Atrocities are no less atrocities when they occur in laboratories and are called 'medical research'."George Bernard Shaw
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."Mohandas K. Gandhi
"If we are trespassing, then so were the American soldiers who broke down the gates of Hitler's death camps. If we are thieves, then so were the members of The Underground Railroad who freed the slaves from the South. And if we are vandals, then so were those who destroyed forever the gas chambers of Buchenwald and Auschwitz."Animal Liberation Front
When I look at animals held captive by circuses, I think of slavery. Animals in circuses represent the domination and oppression we have fought against for so long. They wear the same chains and shackles."Dick Gregory, comedian, civil rights activist, humanitarian, vegan
"Animals are my friends. And I don't eat my friends."George Bernard Shaw
It seems to me of great importance to teach children respect for life. Towards this end, experiments on living animals in classrooms should be stopped. To encourage cruelty in the name of science can only destroy the finer emotions of affection and sympathy, and breed an unfeeling callousness in the young towards suffering in all living creatures."Eleanor Roosevelt, writer, diplomat, former First Lady (1884-1962)
"It ill becomes us to invoke in our daily prayers the blessings of God, the compassionate, if we in turn will not practice elementary compassion towards our fellow creatures."Mohandas K. Gandhi
Housing animals in more comfortable, larger cages is not enough. Whether we exploit animals to eat, to wear, to entertain us, or to learn, the truth of animal rights requires empty cages, not larger cages."Tom Regan, Empty Cages
"Wherefore I say to all those who desire to be disciples, keep your hands from bloodshed and let no flesh meat enter your mouths, for the Lord is just and bountiful; who ordains that man shall live by the fruits and seeds of the earth alone."Jesus, Gospel of the Nazirenes, Chapter 38, Verse 4
Kindness and compassion towards all living beings is a mark of a civilized society. Racism, economic deprival, dog fighting and cock fighting, bullfighting and rodeos are all cut from the same defective fabric: violence. Only when we have become nonviolent towards all life will we have learned to live well ourselves."Cesar Chavez
"Until he extends the circle of compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace."Albert Schweitzer
"But if you will contend that you were born to an inclination to such food as you have now a mind to eat, do you then yourself kill what you would eat. But do it yourself, without the help of a chopping-knife, mallet or axe, as wolves, bears, and lions do, who kill and eat at once. Rend an ox with thy teeth, worry a hog with thy mouth, tear a lamb or a hare in pieces, and fall on and eat it alive as they do."Plutarch of Chaeronea (ca. 100 C.E.)
"Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it polite?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?'. And there comes a point when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor polite, nor popular, but one must take it because his conscience tells him that it is right."Martin Luther King, Jr.
"A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life for the sake of his appetite. And to act so is immoral."Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910)
"The cruel experimenter cannot, in the same breath, defend the scientific validity of vivisection on the grounds of the physical similarities between man and the other animals, and then defend the morality of vivisection on the grounds that men and animals are physically different. The only logical alternatives for him are to admit he is either pre-Darwinian or immoral."Richard Ryder, former vivisectionist
"Can you really ask for what reason Pythagoras had for abstaining from flesh? I, for my part, marvel at which man was possessed, who was the first to pollute his mouth with gore, and to allow his lips to touch the flesh of murdered beings."Plutarch of Chaeronea (ca. 100 C.E.)
"Take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented."Elie Wiesel, concentration camp survivor
"Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds."Albert Einstein
"I am not interested to know whether vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race. The pain which it inflicts upon unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further."Mark Twain (1835-1910)
"But for the sake of some little mouthful of flesh, we deprive a soul of the sun, and light, and of that proportion of life and time they had been born into the world to enjoy."Plutarch of Chaeronea (ca. 100 C.E.)
"It is not an act of kindness to treat animals respectfully. It is an act of justice. It is not 'the sentimental interests' of moral agents that grounds our duties of justice to children, the retarded, the senile, or other moral patients, including animals. It is respect for their inherent value. The myth of the privileged moral status of moral agents has no clothes."Tom Regan, The Case for Animal Rights
"If a man aspires towards a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from injury to animals."Albert Einstein
