Time will come in this Kali-yuga when actually people will become what is called man-eater. Still there are existence man-eaters in Africa. So the human society is coming to that position. Like animal, they will eat their own sons and daughters. So therefore this practice, unnecessarily killing animal, is one of the pillar of sinful life.

The ''śāstra'' says, ''striyaḥ sūnā pāna dyūta yatra pāpaś catur-vidhaḥ'' ([[vanisource:SB 1.17.38|SB 1.17.38]]). These four things are the four pillars of sinful life.

What are these? ''Avaida stri-saṅga'': womanly connection which is illegitimate. You cannot have any connection with woman without being married. That is Vedic instruction. Otherwise, what is the difference between animal and man? There is no marriage in the animal kingdom. But in the human society, never mind whether it is in India or Russia or China, there is marriage system in the human society, maybe methods may be different. Therefore, womanly connection, man and woman living together without marital connection, that is ''pāpa'', sinful life. That is the injunction of the ''śāstra''.

Similarly, ''striyaḥ sūnā. Sūnā'' means unnecessarily killing the animals. Just like slaughterhouse. You cannot maintain slaughterhouse in the human society and at the same time you want peace. It is not possible. Every living entity is son of God. You cannot kill even an ant, then you dissatisfy God. Take for example just like a gentleman has got five sons, one of them is useless, doing nothing. But if the expert son says: "My dear father, your this son is useless. Let us kill him and eat," cannibal, will the father agree, "Oh, yes, yes, this son is useless. You can kill and eat"?

Time will come in this Kali-yuga when actually people will become what is called man-eater. Still there are existence man-eaters in Africa. So the human society is coming to that position. Like animal, they will eat their own sons and daughters. So therefore this practice, unnecessarily killing animal, is the one of the pillar of sinful life.

''Striyaḥ sūnā pāna dyūta. Pāna'' means intoxication. We are already intoxicated by illusion. Because we are in the material world, we are accepting false things. Just like this body. I am accepting I am this body. This is intoxication. I am soul, I am Brahma, but I am accepting this body that I am this body. This is already intoxication. And if you increase more intoxication, then where is the possibility of getting real knowledge, ''brahma-jñāna''?
