Many Jainists are vegans because they believe that the dairy industry, that the way that we get our milk creates injury to animals as well. And some Jainists will go as far as not even eating root vegetables because they believe when they pull out the potatoes, they're hurting the microorganisms that are part of the roots themselves. Now many people will say, well that's silly, how can you get through life not hurting an ant? And what the Jainists would say, it's not the actual act of stepping on the ant. That's not what creates the karmic matter to attach itself to your soul. It's the passion that you make the decision to step on the ant. That's what creates that karmic matter attaching itself to your soul.
