Lions and other carnivorous animals do a lot of things besides eat meat. They live outdoors, not in houses they don't wear clothes or drive around in cars they usually sleep for many hours after eating a meal.

Don't try to do this by yourself: to become a good yogi you need a teacher. Find a teacher you can bow to, who can teach you how to be kind - how to serve others - because the key to enlightenment lies in that. Be humble, work hard, study and practice. Chant the Name of God, do japa and meditate, every day.
