A Message from our Founder Venerable Geshe Thupten Phelgye.

"The world today has become so cruel. Humans eat almost all animals, both domestic and wild. Animals are killed for their fur, antler and more. Those who live in water are even called seafood, while in reality they are sentient beings like us, not vegetables. All of them experience the same pain and suffering as we would if we were slaughtered."
