Yoga Talk Podcast: Talking Yoga and God With Jonathan Dickstein

Veganism is a term that has become loaded with connotations, conclusions and assumptions. Many of us think we've made up our minds on this issue - whether veganism is for us, or not. Whether the climate crisis and the meat/dairy industries' connection to it are things we will think about, or not.  In this provocative and uniquely passionate podcast, you will learn a completely new lens through which to look at animal consumption.  What mindsets and assumptions must we accept in order to eat animals, or their products? Most importantly, did we accept these mindsets consciously, out of our own free will, or have we simply accepted a pervasive approach to the issue, and to life itself?
