Acharya Prashant in conversation with Prof. Jonathan Birch, Professor of Philosophy at the London School of Economics and one of the world's leading experts on animal consciousness and welfare.

Two worlds met on one stage. Western science and Indian philosophy came together to ask a question humanity has long avoided: do we treat animals the way we do because we don't understand ourselves?

Acharya Prashant made it clear: real change for animals and the environment can only come when human beings understand their own ego and violent tendencies.

More from Britain coming soon. πŸ”₯

Transcript
00:00Please join me in welcoming Jonathan and Acharya this evening for a cross-cultural discussion on animal consciousness in the
00:07environment, insights from science and Vedanta.
00:13You need a law only when there is lack of love.
00:18One does not need to study the law to know how to behave with his cat, his wife, husband, the
00:27son. Do we need laws to study that?
00:31Denial is profitable. If something can be robbed of its sentience, then it can be consumed.
00:40Human beings are their driver and that is the one thing and the only thing that we need to change.
00:44Everything else will take care of itself. It is not our responsibility.
00:48This planet existed far before we did, we came. The planet is not your responsibility.
00:55You do not exist to set the planet right. Just set yourself right.
00:58The planet is self-sufficient. It will take care of itself.
01:10Thank you. Thanks for existing.
