All Life is Sacred
About this book
Sadhu Vaswani (1879 – 1966) was a saint of modern India, an apostle of compassion and a champion of animal rights. His birthday, November 25, is observed as an International Meatless Day and Animal Rights Day.
In this book, All Life is Sacred, Sadhu Vaswani speaks strongly about the cruelties that animals suffer at the hands of human beings.
A living example of 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam' – The World is One Family, this book is an appeal to mankind to be a protector, a guardian, a savior of all life!
The book indeed will be transformational for every reader and is sure to awaken love and compassion in every individual. Sadhu Vaswani says, "Creation is One Family and man is the elder brother of the animal. So must he be the animal's guardian and helper, not his tyrant and oppressor."
