How to stop non-vegetarian food in one's family?

[A question by Smt. Ramya]

Swami replied:- If you have stopped non-vegetarian food, it is your duty to stop it in your family also. After practicing a right concept, you must propagate to others. Of course, if your family is rigid, leave them to their fate and propagate this justified concept to outsiders. If your family is not changed, at least you should propagate to outsiders. Killing other living beings is the highest injustice as told by scriptures. The punishment for this sin is that the soul eating non-vegetarian food will be born as an animal and the killed animal will be born as a butcher in the next birth. No worship can cancel this sin because it is the highest injustice (ahiṃsā paramo dharmaḥ).
