Sir Paul McCartney recently lashed out at the Dalai Lama on his controversial fleshy diet. In a letter to the spiritual leader, the former Beatle pointed out that meat-eating contributes to the suffering of animals, which goes against the Buddhist tenet of never causing harm to a sentient being. According to reports, McCartney received a polite response from the Dalai Lama saying that his doctors had suggested he eat meat for health reasons. Although we know vegetarians worldwide are thriving on a plant-based diet, the Dalai Lama eating meat seems to negate everything Buddhism stands for.
