My Veg Passages blog is intended to serve as a major resource on the web for many seeking greater access to these rare, difficult-to-find veg and vegan passages from early Christianity and related spiritual movements of antiquity (Essenes, John the Baptist Nasoraeans, Mandaeans, Ebionites, Gospel of the Hebrews, Gnostics, Apocryphal texts, church fathers, etc.., along with references from various scholars exploring the evidence for a vegetarian Jesus at the beginning of Christianity! My veg article was recently updated and greatly expanded. Pack a lunch as you’ll be there awhile. Lots of plant-based passages from the early years of the Jesus movement await you! There are also a lot of references to John the Baptist.

“All living creatures seek a life of peace,
So pass your days on this Earth humanely.
Even the heart that beats in an animal’s breast
Knows sympathy, brims with love.
So look on all living creatures with loving compassion —
bring to humanity’s night the light of dawn.”
(Sant Darshan Singh poem)
