This book argues that the standard arguments for and against the
claim that certain Hindu texts and traditions attribute direct
moral standing to animals and plants are unconvincing. It presents
careful, extensive, and original interpretations of passages from
the Manusmrti (law), the Mahabharata (literature), and the
Yogasutra (philosophy), and argues that these texts attribute
direct moral standing to animals and plants for at least three
reasons: they are sentient, they are alive, and they possess a
range of other relevant attributes and abilities. This book is of
interest to scholars of Hinduism and the environment, religion and
the environment, Hindu and/or Buddhist philosophy more broadly, and
environmental ethics.
