The Advantages of Being a Vegetarian (With Swami Kriyananda)

Does it matter what diet I follow? Do I have to be a vegetarian? Swami Kriyananda responds to this inquiry in a talk about the advantages of being a vegetarian. Kriyananda goes on to explain the subtle but impactful influences that what we eat has on our consciousness. He also makes some recommendations about beneficial and preferential dietary choices.  Kriyananda cautions against being rigid or extreme one way or the other. He advises a balanced approach and says that a pure heart is much more important to spiritual growth than a pure diet.
