:yeṣām anta-gataṁ pāpaṁ
:janānāṁ puṇya-karmaṇām
:te dvanda-moha-nirmuktā
:bhajante māṁ dṛḍha-vratāḥ
<p>We are trying our best to become a perfect devotee of Kṛṣṇa. So to become a perfect devotee means he must be sinless. If one is sinful he cannot become perfect devotee. So according to śāstra, this animal-killing is sinful. Striya-sūnā-pāna-dyūtā yatra pāpaś catur-vidhā ([[Vanisource:SB 1.17.38|SB 1.17.38]]). These four kinds of sinful activities, namely illicit sex, striya... That is also... In our Vedic culture this is common morality. Cāṇakya Paṇḍita even says that mātṛvat para-dāreṣu. Anyone, any other woman, the wife of other gentleman, she should be considered as mother. This is civilization. So what to speak of illicit sex? But people are degrading. That is another thing. But this is our standard of civilization. Even a great politician, he says who is paṇḍita? Who is learned?</p>
:mātṛvat para-dāresu
:para-dravyeṣu loṣṭravat
:ātmavat sarva-bhūteṣu
:yaḥ paśyati sa paṇḍitaḥ
<p>He doesn't say one has to take degrees. By behavior one should be understood. So these four principles, namely illicit sex, animal killing, and intoxication... Yes. So these are sinful activities and our position is how to become sinless. Therefore we do not recommend animal killing. That is not possible.</p>
