If you think vegetarianism is just a “hippie” movement from the 1960s then you’re way off! Vegetarianism developed as a philosophy as long ago as the ancient Greeks, as you’ll hear in this episode of the Vegetarian Zen Podcast. We’ll discuss the first vegetarian societies, the influence of the nineteenth and twentieth-century writers and food manufacturers, and more.
