“Actually we belong to the caste of meat-eaters because we are servants of meat-eaters. Indeed, our activities are exactly like those of the meat-eaters. Because we always associate with such people, we are inimical toward the cows and brÄhmaṇas.â€
There are two kinds of meat-eaters — one who is born in a family of meat-eaters and one who has learned to associate with meat-eaters. From ÅšrÄ«la RÅ«pa and SanÄtana GosvÄmÄ«s (formerly Dabira KhÄsa and SÄkara Mallika) we can learn how one attains the character of a meat-eater simply by associating with meat-eaters. At the present moment in India the presidential offices are occupied by many so-called brÄhmaṇas, but the state maintains slaughterhouses for killing cows and makes propaganda against Vedic civilization. The first principle of Vedic civilization is the avoidance of meat-eating and intoxication. Presently in India, intoxication and meat-eating are encouraged, and the so-called learned brÄhmaṇas presiding over this state of affairs have certainly become degraded according to the standard given herein by ÅšrÄ«la RÅ«pa GosvÄmÄ« and SanÄtana GosvÄmÄ«. These so-called brÄhmaṇas give sanction to slaughterhouses for the sake of a fat salary, and they do not protest these abominable activities. By deprecating the principles of Vedic civilization and supporting cow-killing, they are immediately degraded to the platform of mlecchas and yavanas. A mleccha is a meat-eater, and a yavana is one who has deviated from Vedic culture. Unfortunately, such mlecchas and yavanas are in executive power. How, then, can there be peace and prosperity in the state? The king or the president must be the representative of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. When MahÄrÄja Yudhiá¹£á¹hira accepted the rule of BhÄrata-vará¹£a (formerly this entire planet, including all the seas and land), he took sanction from authorities like BhÄ«á¹£madeva and Lord Kṛṣṇa. He thus ruled the entire world according to religious principles. At the present moment, however, heads of state do not care for religious principles. If irreligious people vote on an issue, even though it be against the principles of the Å›Ästras, the bills will be passed. The president and heads of state become sinful by agreeing to such abominable activities. SanÄtana and RÅ«pa GosvÄmÄ«s pleaded guilty to such activities; they therefore classified themselves among the mlecchas, although they had been born in a brÄhmaṇa family.
