Today I want to share with you my experience at the JVB Preksha camp in Orlando. Its been around a year since I went there, but I never posted about it.
It was a 1 day and 1 morning event that I went to with my brother and mom, alongside 2 jain samanis (nuns) Rohini and Satya pragya (good friends of mine) and a Jain laymen family.
At the event, my family brought a vegan message and pamphletts and were even given the opportunity to give a vegan abolitionist presentation to theyouth attending.
By the second day, by working with other vegan Jains, we had successfully brought about a shift. The breakfast of the last morning was entirely vegan, in stark contrast to the only partially vegan meals a mere day ago.
I want to give thanks to all the vegan Jains and to everyone who listened with an open mind.
I was amazed at how effective clear, friendly and peaceful educational activism can be.
I was originally going to post this in a new group called Jainism and Veganism but never got around to making it.
