Re: ahimsA as a first principle -- still valid?

Sri Mani's mail on ahimsA brings up a question to mind. maan THol (deer skin) is considered sacred by Vaishnavas. Bramhachaaris are asked to tie that on their "poonal" (sacred thread. Why is this a practice ? What is the origin behind this ? Is this not himsA against the deer ? Please enlighten. Regards. Sreeram __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
