The following quotation appears on the title-page: ""Thus the King's will is: There hath been slaughter for the sacrifice and slaying for the meat, but henceforth none shall spill the blood of life nor taste of flesh, seeing that knowledge grows, and life is one, and mercy cometh to the merciful." # Light of Asia." The introduction on pages 3-4 is a short account of vegetarianism from a theosophical standpoint.
