Vegetarianism

I have already been vegetarian for a week. I know it is not much but I still decided to blog about it.

I have been vegetarian in certain parts in my life. Sometimes for health reasons or just because Mama told me so. This time I choose to be vegetarian for as long as I live.

I have more education on the large amount of abuse that are being given to the animals that are being used. I have watched many videos of the torture that they are given. Here are some links to H.E. Tsem Tulku Rinpoche's blog that have videos and text about animal cruelty that goes to our stomachs: (Warning: Viewers discretion is advised! Don't say I did not warn you!)

Well, even in the first week of being a vegetarian. I find it quite easy. The only problem is that in my school, temptation surrounds me. Even my best friends eat nuggets in front of me. I do not really care about that much as i have much more tastier and healthier food than chicken nuggets.

I get packed food this year so that I will not get tempted by such horrible things.

I tried to spread a message in my school. I discovered something horribly disturbing. In my school, nearly EVERYONE enjoys animal slaughter. They grin at the dead chicken carcass. They laugh at the disemboweled cow.

That is just so sickening.

Well, for those who are not sickening like the people i just mentioned, you can eat at vegetarian restaurants.

The best vegetarian restaurant in Malaysia for me is Kechara Oasis. Here is their website:

Their food is so perfect. Some of it is exotic but it still tastes good. My favourite dish is the Butter Fried Mushroom.

Here is a post from Rinpoche's blog about Kechara Oasis:

If anyone has any opinions on nice Vegetarian Restaurants in Malaysia. Please tell me. I might even write a review for it!

By the way, Tsem Rinpoche and Kechara Oasia ROCKS!

  1. Nice post, Sean... i'm proud that you have decided to be vegetarian - despite all the 'temptation' around you... just think of the poor animals being killed when you feel tempted, and think that they could be your parents in your previous life...

    There's so much yummy vegetarian food out there.. we will go to KO soon, okay :)

  2. Don't ever let those immature school kids influence you, sean. You are more mature than they are, try to be compassionate toward your classmates when they tease you with meat because they are they ones suffering most.

    In school all the kids are insecure because they all want to fit in. So they make fun of anyone who's different (including smart kids, like you are).
