According to he Vedic principles, first the calf is allowed to drink the Cow's milk. After the calf drinks its quota, we collect the remaining milk. One should not force the cow for milk. And hence whatever milk we receive from the cow is not forced out of her. She gives naturally. Every living being as well as every matter has a dharma. Like the dharma of the salt is to be salty in taste, sugar to be sweet in taste. Similarly, for the cow, her dharma is to provide milk. So it is not in violence that we are collecting milk.
Cow meat(beef) is procured from forced killing, which is disapproved.

1. The very concept of vegetarianism is erroneous. Actually the word
vegetarian is a misnomer causing unnecessary confusion. That is why in vedic
literature there is no reference to such a word.
The actually term should be meat-arian.
No one can live without eating
vegetables and fruits, so everyone is a vegeratian . But those
ignorants/cruel/dumb people who eat meat/egg kill innocent lives, eat
tamasik food and hence are meatarians.
2. Milk is not meat. Extracting milk, does not pain or trouble cows. It's a
satvik diet having beneficial effect on mind and body. So there is no harm
in consuming milk. Ofcourse using injections on animals to increase milk,
denying milk to calves is a sin.
3. those who get into this debate of milk being vegetarian or not should
first understand that the reason of banning certain foods for civilized
humans is 2 folds:
a. It harms your own mind/body
b. it troubles/kills/ pains other living beings.
Anything that satisfies either of above 2 criteria, is 'abhakshya' food
(non-eatable). Everything else is Bhakshya (eatable). That's why in satyarth
prakash rishi doesn't get into debate of veg-non veg. he talks of Bhakshya
and Abhakshya food and clearly classifies meat as Abhakshya on above 2
criteria.

Krishna Consciousness is not about being a vegetarian or non vegetarian....It's about loving Krsna. Since we love Krsna we do what He asks us to do...Krsna appeared as a cowherd boy & in His pastimes He drank cow's milk, ate butter, etc. If drinking cow's milk was prohibited He would not had performed this pastime.
In addition whether one drinks milk or not one should offer it to Krsna first.
Hope I did not disappointed you.

hare krsna,
what is important is the milk which is shared by us with the calf and like a mother we take it and we r not eatin any flesh as per rules and so as we drink our mothers milk so we are taking this.
Mom feeds her kid her milk..is that non-veg??????

Jai Shri Krishna..
Everything belongs to Krishna, therefore we offer Bhoga to Krishna and the remnants we call prasadama we consume as food. Krishna had described to us what we should consider as food.
The milk we drink is not causing any harm to the cow, whereas eating the animal is. Equate this to a baby who drinks milk from it's mom, is the baby eating it's mom. Is the baby eating meat? Meat is part of the body which is required by the animal to live. That is the difference.
