Take a piece of anything, meat, bone, wood and start dividing it into two. Now keep on doing this until you come to the smallest piece you can get. But as long as there is a piece of that thing left know that you can still divide it further into two.
The amazing thing is that that process will go on forever, that is how Amazing Akal Purukh is, without no end or beginning. Ultimately everything that we see, touch , feel, taste, hear and smell and all else around us collectively makes up The universe, which in turn is Waheguru. Even that which is Not Reality is Waheguru since He created it All.
Now to my point, bearing in mind that everything has been created by Akal Purukh and that everything has a reason for it's existence, there is a way that this Physical Reality which is Not Reality as it is merely just an Illusion can merge with the Ultimate Reality which is Truth and Only Truth.
The way to merge with this Truth is to live according to the Shabad (Word) of Gurbani. In due process one has to abide with the Rules and Regulations of the Shabad one of which is to be aware consciously of what we eat, since those little pieces that make us up work in different ways when they combine in different methods and volumes. Since all these Little pieces have an energy field around them, some energy is negative to us humans and can affect the way we do our simran/bhagti. I would like to call this negative energy negative Naam and I will explain why. The whole Universe is Waheguru and Waheguru is Naam, Naam is what we merge ourselves into and from Naam the Universe is created.
Even this 'negative Naam' is positive eg. a lion has to eat meat to survive, not vegetables.
It is inevitable that when we breathe we take in plenty of germs/ organisms, but all this happens subconciously according to Nature (Waheguru). When we start consuming meat by consciously deciding using our own mind this becomes manmat and this is totally opposite of Gurmat.
I urge you to stay within the contraints of Gurmat and not get embroiled in the nitty gritty otherwise there will be no end to what we can consume or not consume.
