,or", kindness

and compassion arise only in a

gentle mind. So, whatever hardens the mind, whatever makes it gross, acts as an impediment to the

arising oflove in a person.

Are they not two acts ofmutual contradiction, rmimaginable to sane mind, to wish happiness
to an animal, a living being, on one day - and on
another to eat the flesh ofthat same animal?
When one speaks ofall beings, there is not
a single species of animal that is not included in that
statement. Not only land animals like cattle, goats,
pigs and poultry but also aquatic animals like fishes,
crabs and prawns are all included, be they big or
small.

The Mediterranean vegetarian festival in Malta was such a

success that plans are already afoot for a similar event in southern
Europe at the beginning ofApril next year at the seaside resort ofpiran
just a few miles south of Trieste.
The Maltese event, which ran from World Vegetarian Day through World
Farm Animals Day, Gandhi's birthday and the Feast of St Francis of

Assisi, certainly provided something for everyone. participants from

more than a dozen countries and three coutinents converged upon the
smallest nation state on earth for what turned out to be the happiest
and most united veggie gathering I have ever attended - thanks to the
warmth and kindness of our Maltese hosts as well as the glorious
weather and seaside location.
The inaugural ceremony set the tone for the whole festival,
with Francisio Martin and Marcel Hebbelinck both in sparkling form.
French veggie chef Jean-Claude luston s food was such a success that
the hotel manager now wishes to incorporate vegan dishes in the
standard meru - a development barely conceivable even just a few
months ago.
The quality of the speakers brought considerable media interest
and the VegSoc have been given a weekly television slot for the next 13

weeks as a result. So quite a lot was achieved in building on the hard

work of the local society and bringing the veggie message to a culture
traditionally hostile to it.

RALLY

December 1999)

Timed to coincide with the first dawn of the year 2000 on tlre other side
ofthe planet, at noon Greenwich mean time, the Millennium Vegetarian
Rally in London's Hyde Park organised by Nitin Mehta of the Young
lndian Vegetarians was the culmination of a world-wide year of pledgetaking launched at the IVU World Congress in Thailand this time last
year.

Despite freezing weather and transport difficulties, vegetarians and

vegans travelled from all over the United Kingdom and, indeed, from a
number of other countries, to see the young oak tree planted near
Speakers Corner rvitlr a time capsule containing the text of the pledge.
Blessed by members of all the world's major religions but above all by
people gathered to express their compassion for the planet and all those

with whom we share it, the tree should get off to a very good start.
There was live music and dancing by Indian school children, spoon
bending by Uri Geller and a beacon lighting ceremony, as well as poems
by Bernie Laprade with a plea for a change of heart by the carnivorous
majority: "The challenge is to make them see/ Way deep inside their
head/ That the Universe is countin gl Every time they eat the dead."
Mahaveer Awards were made to a dozen major vegetarian, animal
protection and environmental organisations, including the VSUK, and
to four outstanding individuals - including the indomitable octogenarian
Joan Court from Cambridge, founder president of APE (Animals, People
and the Environment) and Francisco Martin, President of the Spanish

Vegan Society and until recently General Secretary of IVU. So

members and affiliated organisations were well represented.

IVU

It was particularly encouraging to see the Jewish and Muslim vegetarian

societies represented as well as Christian, Buddhist and Jain

organisations, to name but a few.

h4iLLENF{IUfu{ VHfi HTARIAN RALLY

(Hyde Park, London,

lst December 1999)

Timed to coincide with the first dawn ofthe year 2000 on the other side
ofthe planet, at noon Greenwich mean time, the Millennium Vegetarian
Rally in London's Hyde Park organised by Nitin Mehta of the Young
Indian Vegetarians was the culmination of a world-wide year of pledgetaking launched at the IVU World Congress in Thailand this time last
year.

Despite freezing weather and transport difficulties, vegetarians and

vegans travelled from all over the United Kingdom and, indeed, from a
number of other countries, to see the young oak tree planted near
Speakers Corner rvith a time capsule containing the text of the pledge.
Blessed by members of allthe world's major religions but above all by
people gathered to express their compassion for the planet and all those

with whom we share it, the tree should get off to a very good start.
There was live music and dancing by Indian school children, spoon
bending by Uri Geller and a beacon lighting ceremony, as well as poems
by Bernie Laprade with a plea for a change of heart by the carnivorous
majority: "The challenge is to make them see/ Way deep inside their
head/ That the Universe is counting/ Every time they eat the dead."
Mahaveer Awards were made to a dozen major vegetarian, animal
protection and environmental organisations, including the VSUK, and
to four outstanding individuals - including the indomitable octogenarian
Joan Court from Cambridge, founder president of APE (Animals, People
and the Environment) and Francisco Martin, President of the Spanish
Vegan Society and until recently General Secretary of IVU. So IVU
members and affiliated organisations were well represented.

It was particularly encouraging to

see

the Jewish and Muslim vegetarian

societies represented as well as Christian, Buddhist and Jain

organisations, to name but a few.

S i, poul McCartney oJ' Beatles fame is best

known as a celebrity figure in modern music.
Beatles fans in Sri Lanka would perhaps be
surprised to hear tltat both Paul and his wife
Linda were front-line vegetarian activists.

Lirao,

who died in April l99B was a Patron of

the Vegetarian Society of the United Kingdom. The

Summer 1998 issue of the Society's Newsmagazine
"The Vegetarian" published a tribute to Linda with
excerpts

from an interview given by her in

1995.

fn

this interview Linda McCartney comments on

veggie trends in UK and USA. "In the past ten
years," she says, "eating habits in both countries
have changed dramatically. According to the UK
surveys, there's been a 300% increase in the
number of female vegetarians in that tinrc and in
the US, the number of veggies has doubled. I think
people in the USA, UK ancl around the world are
becoming more owqre of what they're eating and
how it affects them. But then, we seem to be living
in a tirue of great awareness an!wo)' .. l0 years
ago Nelson l[andela was in prison, the Berlin Wall
was still up and the Soviet Bloc was still dictctting.
It is the same with our diet. All over the world,
people are freeing themselves frorn the n'aditional,
older ways of being, to enjoy a healthier kinder
way of ltfe".
"As a group, il's the teenage girls who have
become the anintals' greatest allies. Recently in
Britain, a survey was conducted among recders
of a teenage girls' magazine and the results were
astonishing - 49% of girls aged l4-16 were
vegetarian and many of them had been veggie
for a couple of years. I think the rneut industry is
in for a big shock as tnore and more young women
are sticking to their beliefs".

fn *

tuibute to Lady McCartney, T'he Vegetarian

goes on ta say, "Linda lvfcCartney can take a lat

of the creditfor bringing vegetarianismfirmly into
the mainstream in the UK. She helped change

people's attitudes to vegetarianism, mal:ing

vegetarian convenient foods accessible ta all, and
a familiar sight on supermarket shelves as it had
never been before." She entered the vegetarian

food industry, not in search of profit, but because,

in her own words, it.was her greatest hope to make

"this new food available in every country of the

world. I want to create tasty meatless alternatives
.. so that people c.an enjoy the taste but nothing
has to suffirfor their appetite". Her husband Paul
remarked, "A less likely business womon you
could not hope to meet.. she was a person who
was driven by principle, passion and compassion,
stcting 'vegetarianism isnT a business for me,
rather a mission'.

S*rrrd in

1991, the

Linda McCartney Foods has

become a multi-million pound enterprise,

producing as of last year 38 varieties o-f
vegetarian meals. "Her pioneering vision made
other manufacturers sit up and realise the growth
in popularity of vegetarianism and just what a
massive potential market now existed .Linda s
involyement had a catalytic effect that led to an
explosion oJ' dedicated vegetarian foods available
in the high street".

On

the massive growth of the McCartney brand

as a household name in food, Paul commented

"How many women can you think of who would
single-handedll take on the Meat and Livestock
Commission, risk not being laughed at, and yet
succeed?

fn

tgSg Lacly McCartney successfulty ventured

into culinary literary production u,ith the

publication of Linda McCartney's Home Cooking.

Another work by her Lindab Kitchen published
in 1995 ,sold over 400,000 copies, demonstrating
the popularity of the meat-free diet and
encouraging other authors and publishers to
follow ,suit.

H*ng

been vegetarians

for

tuell over 20 yeors,

Paul ond Linda McCartney became patrons o.f

VSUK in May 1995. In a fitting tribute to this
unique woman, the 1998 UK National Yegetarian
Week celebrations were dedicated to her memory.
But, as Sir Paul remarked, "The tribute she would
have liked best would be for people to go
vegetarian. "

"Animal source food is adaptive when there's not enough food, trut in a world with abundant and
diverse plant foods, animal source food is obsolete and only causes problems."
- Dr William Hanis, M.D. well known US physician and advocate ofvegetarianism, author of "The Scientific Basis of Vegetarianism";
vegetarian since I 950 and vegan since 1 963 (switched both times primarily for ethical reasons). He is one ofmany vegetarian doctors
