Animal-Killing, and Soul-Merging Condemned
>From Sri Isopanisad, translated by HDG Bhaktivedanta Gosvami Prabhupada
mantra three:
asuryaa naama te lokaa
andhena tamasaavritaah
taams te pretyaabhigacchanti
ye ke caatma-hano janaah
"The killer of the soul, whoever he may be, must enter into the planets
known as the worlds of the faithless, full of darkness and ignorance."
(Note: Srila Prabhupada often referred to the idea of merging the soul into
God, and thus losing one's individual identity, as "spiritual suicide").
