Go Spiritual India Relaunches Nationwide ‘Go Vegetarian’ Campaign on World Vegetarian Day 2023

On the auspicious occasion of World Vegetarian Day, celebrated annually on October 1st, it’s time for deep reflection. We must ask ourselves whether sacrificing the lives of animals for our sustenance is truly necessary. Is meat consumption a fundamental requirement for humanity? To understand the importance of this day, let’s briefly explore its history: World Vegetarian Day was established in 1977 by the North American Vegetarian Society (NAVS) and has since gained global recognition for its message of compassion and benevolence towards animals. The worldwide adoption of vegetarian and vegan lifestyles has been steadily growing over the years. Go Spiritual India, India’s Leading Charitable Spiritual Organization, is proud to relaunch its nationwide ‘Go Vegetarian’ campaign on this World Vegetarian Day in 2023. The campaign initially debuted in 2022. Go Spiritual India is committed to philanthropy, spiritual enlightenment, social causes, spiritual tourism, media, organics, spiritual events, mental health, and wellness. At its helm is Sonu Tyagi, an award-winning writer, director, and producer with a diverse background spanning film, journalism, advertising, and psychology. He also leads Approach Entertainment, India’s prominent film production and celebrity Management Company, along with Approach Communications, a media and communications firm. Go Spiritual India is set for an array of exciting initiatives, starting with the rollout of the Go Spiritual India Monthly Print Magazine and its digital counterpart. Following this, Go Spiritual India has plans to launch Go Spiritual India Web TV & OTT. In addition to media ventures, Go Spiritual India aims to diversify its portfolio by offering a range of products and services in wellness, mental health, Ayurveda, and food categories via its dedicated e-commerce platform. Moreover, the organization is actively developing events and retreats to advance the cause of Indian spirituality on a global scale. Sonu Tyagi’s profound connection with the spiritual realm inspired the establishment of Go Spiritual India. Their mission is to reach a global audience through various mediums, such as media, social media, digital platforms, films, events, and a vast network of volunteers. Their primary goals include promoting vegetarianism, advocating for kindness towards animals, and spreading Indian spirituality worldwide. You may wonder about the connection between spirituality and vegetarianism. Beyond the avoidance of unnecessary violence towards animals, the meat industry has a significant adverse impact on the environment and sustainability. Indian spirituality is rooted in the belief that all living beings possess a soul (Atma), an integral part of the Supreme Being (Param Atma), or what some may refer to as God. As all souls are interconnected through the Param Atma, spirituality involves an expansion of consciousness aimed at merging the individual Atma with the Param Atma. Consequently, compassion and detached love for all living beings are essential aspects of one’s spiritual journey. Consuming healthy, guilt-free food is a crucial facet of this spiritual journey. Whether consciously acknowledged or not, the act of slaughtering animals for food and consuming their carcasses can evoke a sense of guilt, even if it lingers in one’s subconscious. This guilt can hinder spiritual growth. Spirituality teaches us to respect all of God’s creation and emphasizes that animals are an integral part of it. Kindness towards animals stems from the innate compassion within humans, even when it’s consciously overlooked. With this understanding, Go Spiritual India has been actively promoting vegetarianism and compassion for homeless animals in India. On World Vegetarian Day, their campaign aims to expand its reach both within India and globally. Go Spiritual India, a prominent spiritual and social service organization engaged in various philanthropic activities, emphasizes service towards the poor, underprivileged, and animals alike. Spirituality teaches us to be kind not only to humanity but to all of nature, respecting the creation of the Supreme Being. Founder Sonu Tyagi reiterates the organization’s mission to raise awareness about the greatness of Indian culture, traditions, spirituality, and compassion. Go Spiritual India plans to take its spiritual philosophy and ‘Go Vegetarian’ campaign to a global scale, engaging volunteers, media, and social media from around the world, creating digital content and films for this noble cause. Go Spiritual India has also been actively involved in charitable work, including efforts to eradicate hunger and distribute essentials like blankets to the less fortunate. Go Spiritual India  ‘Bhookh Mitao Campaign’ focuses on providing food to the hungry and encourages food item donations, supported by corporate organizations and spiritual individuals. Additionally, Go Spiritual India run annual blanket donation drives to assist the homeless during harsh North Indian winters, garnering support from volunteers and Bollywood celebrities alike. In addition to their humanitarian efforts, Go Spiritual India promotes compassion towards animals. This message of mercy towards animals has gained significant traction, leading many to embrace vegetarianism and compassion for all living beings. Go Spiritual India is gaining recognition through its philanthropic and spiritual activities. All their campaigns have received widespread support and financial backing, propelling the organization forward. Their mission seeks to eliminate meat consumption worldwide, highlighting its health risks and environmental impact. Efforts to justify taking animal lives are seen as hypocritical. Social activist Prem Agrawal, associated with Go Spiritual India, asserts that human bodies are not naturally designed to digest meat. He points out that while carnivorous animals do not chew their food, herbivores, including humans, do. According to Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, vegetarian food is ideal for maintaining health, a concept supported by yoga for overall well-being. Human physiology necessitates chewing food before ingestion, indicating that the human body is naturally inclined toward a vegetarian diet. However, many people worldwide consume meat primarily for pleasure and indulgence. Sonu Tyagi appeals to all to remove meat from their plates and transition to a healthier, naturally vegetarian diet. The ‘Go Vegetarian’ campaign by Go Spiritual India seeks to create awareness and inspire individuals to make this transformative change, not just for their well-being but also for the compassion and respect they owe to all living beings and the environment. Approach Communications is handling PR and communications for Go Spiritual India, while social media and digital marketing are being managed

Complimenting people on their weight loss? Demi Lovato has a message for you

American Singer Demi Lovato, who came out as non-binary last week and now uses they/them pronouns, is known for being vocal on issues concerning eating disorders and its awareness on numerous occasions. Be it depression, bullying, or substance abuse Lovato has always discussed these struggles on a platform and spread social awareness. This time the uber-talented singer took to their Instagram account and wrote on how commenting on people’s bodies can affect people’s mental health. Complimenting someone on their weight loss can be just as harmful as complimenting someone on their weight gain, they said. They wrote, “Idk who needs to hear this but complimenting someone on their weight loss can be as harmful as complimenting someone on their weight gain in regards to talking to someone in recovery from an eating disorder.” Demi further added, “If you don’t know someone’s history with food, please don’t comment on their body. Because even if your intention is pure, it might leave that person awake at 2 am overthinking that statement…Does it feel great? Yeah, sometimes. But only to the loud-ass eating disorder voice inside my head that says ‘See, people like a thinner you’ or ‘if you eat less you’ll lose even more weight.” “But it can also sometimes suck because then I start thinking ‘Well, damn. What’d they think of my body before?’ Moral of the story: I am more than the shell for my soul that is my body and every day I fight to remind myself of that, so I’m asking you to please not remind me that that is all people see of me sometimes.” Read the complete post here: In Simply Complicated, Lovato’s latest YouTube documentary, the singer opens up about her struggles with eating disorders early this year. They discuss how food is still the biggest challenge of their life. They also share about the relapse after her recent breakup. In the documentary Demi traced their issues with eating back to childhood, noting that they first began bingeing at eight years old. Demi Lovato coming out as non-binary Previously, Demi came out as a non-binary and shared her news with her followers and said, “I want to take this moment to share something very personal with you.” “Over the past year and a half, I have been doing some healing and self-reflective work, and through this work, I have had the revelation that I identify as non-binary. “With that said, I will officially be changing my pronouns to they/them. I feel this best represents the fluidity I feel in my gender expression and allows me to feel most authentic and true to the person I both know I am and still am discovering.” Demi further continued,”I don’t claim to be an expert or a spokesperson. Sharing this with you now opens another level of vulnerability for me. “I’m doing this for those out there that haven’t been able to share who they truly are with their loved ones. Please keep living in your truths & know I am sending so much love your way xox.” After the announcement, the 28-year-old singer garnered a major outpour of love and support from the internet.
