I am a Mechanical Engineer just completed my graduation, I love to cuddle animals and I also do experiment in cooking lol !!
So this is my story and also I will tell you how I became atheist and anti religious.
Incident 1
As from the childhood I always had affection to the animals. I was around 10 years old. I noticed a baby goat roaming in the street opposite my house I brought him my home clicked some pictures from my old camera and fed him some food.
I knew at the time that someone would pick him up but I was praying to god that the person never comes. Still a person came took him up and I knew the consequences that the goat will be sacrificed in just 10 months in the name of religious tradition. The person used to live after a block so I could visit to meet the baby goat. I prayed to god desperately, read some holy books to beg the god to save him. While I was waiting for the miracle to happen I noticed the red liquid slowly mixing in with the sewage water outside his home. I wasn’t stupid enough to understand I walked away from there knowing I would not have to visit him again. I wasted my time in praying instead of saving him. I lost my faith in super powers and I just witnessed the religious atrocities.
Incident 2
There was a baby cow whose mother died at the time of delivery. She had an owner but here in India cows roam in streets in search of food. I used to cuddle her and fed her she was like my best friend. As she was getting older her owner took her to the hospital where artificial insemination is done aka rape rack. She got pregnant but still she was not old enough to carry a baby. As a result of street junk food she used to eat her baby died inside. We called the doctors and removed the baby from inside but still the mother died, she died painful death in my arms regardless the efforts we made I couldn’t forget that face which I used to scratch gently she was just gone which made me realize the greed behind the dairy consumption.
One day I noticed a word VEGAN while surfing facebook I searched and read all about it. The truth was in front of my eyes all exposed. I watched earthlings which was the most difficult and somewhere in the footage where an animal was skinned alive and watching his face I lost my control I broke all the religious based things like statues and stuff available in my home. I was always a strict vegetarian because of animals which I realized wasn’t enough if I love animals. I ditched dairy just in one seconds no baby steps, when you know the truth there are no baby steps either you support the cruelty or you are vegan.
Then I watched Gary Yourofsky’s famous speech which is the best speech ever and came to know more about absurd arguments and their counters. I never cared for the substitutes or getting the enough nutrition I changed for animals. I researched about all the substitutes for milk and I found soy milk very easy because raw soy beans are available here since then I process the soy milk daily. I also researched about nutrition and their plant based sources I made myself Vegan diet chart. My family is really supportive in all the changes and almost all the food cooked is vegan already so there were no difficulties in changing ingredients. I started workout and got trained in MMA just to prove that vegans can do anything. Being busy in college I had to leave both but I will continue it again. I never’ve been sick since turning vegan my metabolism and immunity are very strong.
I have two rescued stray dogs and I feed cows and dogs in streets, cuddle them make them feel loved. I always have food in my bag and first aid not for humans but for animals, wherever I go whenever I see animals I feed them sometimes I take selfies and pictures to inspire more people to do the same. I have no wish of buying big home or luxury cars my ultimate goal in life is to build animal sanctuaries and devote myself to this movement.
