    My surname is Pal and my motherland is UP ....we belong to Shepherd cast ....and our cast eat everything..... because my ancestors had only goats and sheep as business no field and farming for feeding the family ...so my ancestors used to sell goat's and sheep's meat milk and wool etc. ....my kuldevi was Mari mata to whome goats sacrifices were given every year .... But from my Dad's generation everything changed....my parents migrated to Mumbai..became huge fan of Krishna ....joined to Pandurang Shastri aathavale Ji's Swadhyay ...now doing office work ...and my own family is pure vegetarian me and my siblings never even ate eggs from our birth ... though my caste belongs to meat eating family but my family never touched even non veg ....so the overall conclusion is everything is based on condition and time factor

    Ankita Pal In Hinduism there is a word called ahimsa which means less violence (not non violance) So we should act or eat so that there will be minimum possible violance. Eating plant is less violent than slitting the throat of animals. Killing Osama bin Laden is ahimsa , becoz we kill one to save thousands.

    Certain animals became restricted from cuisine owing to their attributes. It could be a socio-economic factor too.. for example, the case with pork is because islam derived much of its dietry and other customs from Judaism, and to them pigs were a pagan food of the cananites and hence the Jews refrained from consuming something the pagans consumed. As to the case of cows in ancient India, it isn't entirely true that the cows were sacred or divinely attested in the society, atleast not till the later Vedic period.. because prior to that in early Vedic era, a person's social status was determined by how many cows he owned.. and rig Vedic texts talk about the pride in waging war and the capture of cattles of the rival tribes.. so cows were valued possesion.. slaughtering them would reduce the numbers and that reflects on ur status.. but that doesn't mean they never ate cows. It was rather a delicacy served only for specific occasions. Especially if the chieftain is marrying of his daughter, then he slaughters the best cow he has for the occasion. There's even a term in ancient text denoting to it Gognha (गोगना), even Panini makes note of this.. and even later texts after later Vedic era mention this practice of consuming the cow (albeit not a common practice but only reserved for occasion) “The cow should be slaughtered on the arrival of a guest, on the occasion of shraddha of ancestors and on the occasion of a marriage.” ~Apastamb Grihsutram (1/3/10)

    It's about availability and sacrifice minimum... When you don't have much vegetarian food for all you can eat meat for survival. That's what we been doing from so many years. So the fact is you can eat meat only when it's about your survival. But if you do eat for your tongue taste you are pure evil on earth. And if you think you can get power from eating non vegetarian food you are all wrong. Vali, Hanuman Ram and so on were vegetarian and got immense power.

    Vegeterianism was advised by the Saints and Sages of yore as a direct means of developing a sattvic body/mind state of being. It is therefore imperative for anyone earnestly practicing any type of Yoga to consider adopting a vegeterian diet as it will help you make progress to your desired destination greatly. After one reaches their destination and they attain divine union with the source than it does not matter what they consume.

Many famous Kings took those religions, vegetarianism also became popular. Later hindu sages also started to do the same. And being hindu if you say, meat eating is bad to other people, you are not a hindu. Because you are not following the basic principle of Hinduism that you should respect diversity in other people

    Sir, the sacred texts do admit that some form of violence is necessary for survival. Hence, it is prescribed that the food (bhoga) to be offered to the dieties before consumption by humans. Furthermore, it is expalined in shastras about the three Gunas (modes) namely satva, rajas and tamas. And it is stressed that an intelligent person shall always try to achieve a higher state of consciousness by engaging more in activities involving satva guna. At the same time he shall genuinely try renouncing activities leading to lower modes. Thus, vedic philosophy prescribes the seeker of certain do's and don'ts. Now it is upto the person how much he/she is attached to a certain kind of lifestyle and how much he/she is willing to sacrifice in order to achieve a better state of consciousness. Thus the consumption of food is also an act and involves the three modes. So, the point is choose wisely!! Do take informed decisions and not just based sensual pleasures only.

    Hinduism will always allow everything depending on circumstances. One can't make it generic and applicable to all. Before agriculture, all were meat eaters Doesn't mean you go and take conclusions from there. As they learned more, become advanced. They started abstaining from eating it. Ofcourse, not entire country can convert to eating veg one fine day. It's a process. If you can't afford or have the means to eat veg, it's okay, eat meat for your survival. Don't just die. That's the message. He says it was associated with upper caste Cause probably they had the resources to eat veg. Others didn't. You should eat only for your survival, If it's for your taste, then it's definitely wrong. It's against the most basic fundamental law of dharma. Where has he mentioned this? He not even mentioning about it's considered rajesic. It comes under The worst kind category of food to eat for your health. He is just giving random examples saying see people used to eat , so many people used to sacrifice So it's fine, you can eat too Without even explaining and circumstances etc No comment on the science advocated by the vedas, nothing What stupid logic. He just amazing in English. *In India, Good English means intelligent.* I see comments like he is the only person makes us understand true Hinduism. Lol

    He didn't mention Tamsik foods and their negative energy. The ultimate source of energy = sun Energy converted into potential energy, by light energy is made by = plants & other autotrophs. And hence we eat plants to get energy which is comparably lower then the energy in plants and therefore when you cut a food from the plant, you can see living cells in it for many days, and even weeks or months. And when you cut an animal and see the flesh and or meat in the microscope, you will be able to see dead cells only after some minutes. This is why plants have more energy than meat.

    That is why hinduism is not a religion.. there are no commandments, no set rule that do this you will go to heaven or dont do that you will go to hell.. its a way of life which evolves continuously.. You have freedom to choose which god you wanna worship as your deity, there is no propaganda to convert people to hinduism.. Its not a religion, because different religions came into being over time, this has also mistakenly termed as a religion.. You might as well visit a mosque, gurudwara or a church and pray to god and still be a hindu.. People who truly spend their life as a hindu dont look down upon other religions and dont stop anyone to follow theirs.. Its sad that current scenarios and politics is moving so far away from this wonderful liberal way of life and presenting a wrong image to the society and world..

    Dazzling Diva, Very well put. I have lived in other countries and worked with quite a few foreigners. I also travel across our country, in small towns etc. There is fear and insecurity built up gradually after prolonged foreign invasions, moghul rule, colonialism, poverty, coping with english education etc. The level of acceptance to all kinds of people and traditions is still great. We Indians were observers and absorbers. The only thing common is we are all eternal students, whatever beliefs we follow. We were creative and innovative and open to all ideas without criticism. We dont believe in good and bad. The idea of demons or asuras is also a recent one and influences from foreign cultures. We believe everything is progressing and in different stages and pace of improvement. We are yet to gain freedom. As R.Tagore said Where the mind is without fear. Fear of rebuke, fear of shame, fear of being mocked at. At being myself, at my own culture or traditions, dressing, way of life. Our british education system was designed to make it worse. I saw the freedom in SKorea and Japan. Though the new generation is highly influenced by westerners. There is little shame in your culture. They understand there are some wrong practices which have been corrected But there is no shame. No Fear of being What you are.

    For practical and Legal purposes, it does make sense to call Hinduism a religion. Otherwise the Hindu temples cannot be called temples for temples are a place of worship of a particular faith. If that doesn't happen then the State may take over temples calling them secular spaces or take away the privileges that a religious place enjoys.

    Besides the spiritual freedom to experiment our paths to the divine, the religion itself is quite fascinating with it's huge variety of cultures mixed in it. Hinduism with it's diverse roots offers the experience of different cultures. I'm from TamilNadu where we have our own style of cooking,dressing etc.. Irrespective of religion or God, we can't separate people joined by food and lifestyle. It's more like Christians in India tend to avoid pork in their meal. Although Christians throughout the world love bacon and ham, Indian Christians(with few exceptions) hesitate to have it. Hindus in Kerala or in the west may have beef coz it has become a part of their culture. Bengalis will consider fish as the love of their life. My mother who is a Christian wears a Mangal Sutra in addition to the wedding ring. We don't wear our shoes when we enter Churches. These things happen because we get mixed with the people we live with. Hinduism in it's own way is mixed inside every person in this land. The moment you try to bring one single rule to put a label on who is a perfect or true Hindu, Hinduism itself will lose it's essence. Besides the religious discussion, present day capitalistic free market will always bring in consumerism which will eventually bring in freedom to exploit the cuisines,dressing styles,entertainment options present in other countries. The irony is that people who hail foreign investment for open market in India are the same ones who oppose foreign food habits while the people who support socialism to confine everything within the state are the same ones who are accepting multiculturalism. The reason why the so called strict or orthodox version of Hinduism is slowly fading off is not because of other religions but rather it is because of this open free consumeristic market where our minds are saturated with the worldly pleasures. We are just following what America did when it was in it's growth curve.The importance to religion will slowly disappear into thin air.

    The case of cows in ancient India, it isn't entirely true that the cows were sacred or divinely attested in the society, atleast not till the later Vedic period.. because prior to that in early Vedic era, a person's social status was determined by how many cows he owned.. and rig Vedic texts talk about the pride in waging war and the capture of cattles of the rival tribes.. so cows were valued possesion.. slaughtering them would reduce the numbers and that reflects on ur status.. but that doesn't mean they never ate cows. It was rather a delicacy served only for specific occasions. Especially if the chieftain is marrying of his daughter, then he slaughters the best cow he has for the occasion. There's even a term in ancient text denoting to it Gognha (गोगना), even Panini makes note of this.. and even later texts after later Vedic era mention this practice of consuming the cow (albeit not a common practice but only reserved for occasion) “The cow should be slaughtered on the arrival of a guest, on the occasion of shraddha of ancestors and on the occasion of a marriage.” ~Apastamb Grihsutram (1/3/10) For a detailed analysis and informative read, please do check out this book "The Myth of the Holy Cow" by D.

    Sir, Hinduism is a culture which deals beyond basic materialistic reasons. In Hinduism eating isn't just for satisfying hunger or taste, it's for your overall mental development and emotional balance. And as the caste system is nothing but the profession you do, accordingly ancestors described what kind of food, veg or non veg, to be eaten for each sect or caste. What we eaten affects satva, Rajas, Tammo qualities in us, which in turn affect the overall behavior and perspective.

    @VivekCNair-jy4ct6 жыл бұрын

    Well, some Hindus would disagree with what Dev Sir has said. But the context matters in this scenario. Why do you need meat?? That's the question!! If it's for self-absorption like murdering creatures for your unnecessary desires other than desperate need, that's when it becomes violent. A person who eats meat just for the taste and flavor all the time when he could eat vegetables is doing something unnecessary. One honest reason behind meat - eating is taste. But remember, taste is felt only by your tongue and is receptive only to your brain, not by your stomach or the other parts of your body. Your stomach might not get benefitted from eating that meat and even if it does, it can get those same nutrients from some other vegetables too. If it is really for a dire necessity of nutrients or a scenario of unavailability of other food, then it is not violence, that's self-sustenance. Unlike other religions, Hinduism values subjectivity and context in place of objectivity and numeracy. As he said, there are no fixed commandments that needs to be followed to become a Hindu. Reasons and emotions matter and balance is attained on that basis. Nature defines Hinduism in many ways, just like nature is extremely complex and cannot be understood by a specific set of laws, so is Hinduism. Hindu philosophy works in similar fashion to the working of nature. Nothing is evil or good and ordered or disordered in itself, everything is based upon the context and viewpoint. The idea of eating meat is everywhere but the idea of not eating meat comes from the hermit way of life where you detach yourself from worldly things to rediscover yourself without any sort of involvement in the world. Now, this idea was born out to provide balance to the society because if everyone starts eating meat then the population of those animals would go extinct and violence would outgrow itself. Greed will spread everywhere, with no satiety in people's mind and eventually just like meat is the reason for an animal's existence, body shapes would be looked upon as a woman's value. Something which is in full swing these days which has resulted in so many homicides all over our country. Women are looked upon just for the shape of their body parts for the sake of sexual gratification which also arises from a similar psychological behaviour of eating meat all the time just for the sake of taste. The objectification of women works in parallel with avoidable meat eating. The hermit way of life of not eating any meat and withdrawing from life was born keeping in mind of this eventual crisis which will distort the balance in the society. Everyone will become savage creatures and will be responsible for the demise of the society, and this has happened before. Our ancient sages were aware of this problem and therefore they added the hermit way of life closer to every householder text in those scriptures to provide balance. Now at first glance this distorts clarity, as it does not tell us what to do directly. When someone reads these texts, they're confused as to what must be followed, the hermit or the householder?? But if you read them carefully, they're written in a very reader-interpretation style depending on what the reader wants to read and take from it. So, for clarity, Well, I would say, a person who's been a violent householder for a long time should resort to the hermit way and a person who remained a hermit who withdrew from life for too long and is forgotten by time (just like Arjun in Mahabharata) should seek the householder way. Because it's obvious that no one can sustain himself /herself with either of the extremes believing that some external force would help them out. So, if we view Hinduism from a philosophical binocular, life is basically the movement from either extreme to the other and the return to it and then the return to the other like a clock depending on the context, need, nature and time without any permanence. Everything changes, what is there will wither and what has withered away will come back in different ways.

    gita clearly says that meat is part of tamsik diet. tamsik is the demonic nature. it doesnt lead you closer to god. one has to change his character and diet towards a satvik movement to come more closer to god. you will not find anyone serving meat at the temple or prasad etc.... the gita clearly says this. if you eat meat as a hindu then it is your choice but do not defame hinduism. namaste

    Quotes that disapprove, even denounce, meat-eating: Rig Veda: "One who partakes of human flesh, the flesh of a horse or of another animal, and deprives others of milk by slaughtering cows, O King, if such a fiend does not desist by other means, then you should not hesitate to cut off his head." Rig-veda (10.87.16) Manu-Samhita: "Meat can never be obtained without injury to living creatures, and injury to sentient beings is detrimental to the attainment of heavenly bliss; let him therefore shun the use of meat. Having well considered the disgusting origin of flesh and the cruelty of fettering and slaying corporeal beings, let him entirely abstain from eating flesh." (Manu-samhita 5.48-49) "He who permits the slaughter of an animal, he who cuts it up, he who kills it, he who buys or sells meat, he who cooks it, he who serves it up, and he who eats it, must all be considered as the slayers of the animal. There is no greater sinner than that man who though not worshiping the gods or the ancestors, seeks to increase the bulk of his own flesh by the flesh of other beings." (Manu-samhita 5.51-52) "If he has a strong desire (for meat) he may make an animal of clarified butter or one of flour (and eat that); but let him never seek to destroy an animal without a (lawful) reason. As many hairs as the slain beast has, so often indeed will he who killed it without a (lawful) reason suffer a violent death in future births." (Manu-samhita 5.37-38) "He who injures harmless creatures from a wish to give himself pleasure, never finds happiness in this life or the next." (Manu-samhita 5.45) "By subsisting on pure fruits and roots, and by eating food fit for ascetics in the forest, one does not gain so great a reward as by entirely avoiding the use of flesh. Me he [mam sah] will devour in the next world, whose flesh I eat in this life; the wise declare this to be the real meaning of the word 'flesh' [mam sah]." (Manu-samhita 5.54-55) "He who does not seek to cause the sufferings of bonds and death to living creatures, (but) desires the good of all (beings), obtains endless bliss. He who does not injure any (creature) attains without an effort what he thinks of, what he undertakes, and what he fixes his mind on." (Manu-samhita 5.46-47) "By not killing any living being, one becomes fit for salvation." (Manu-samhita 6.60) Mahabharata: "He who desires to augment his own flesh by eating the flesh of other creatures, lives in misery in whatever species he may take his [next] birth." (Mahabharata, Anu.115.47) "The purchaser of flesh performs violence by his wealth; he who eats flesh does so by enjoying its taste; the killer does violence by actually tying and killing the animal. Thus, there are three forms of killing. He who brings flesh or sends for it, he who cuts off the limbs of an animal, and he who purchases, sells, or cooks flesh and eats it--all these are to be considered meat-eaters." (Mahabharata, Anu.115.40) "The sins generated by violence curtail the life of the perpetrator. Therefore, even those who are anxious for their own welfare should abstain from meat-eating." (Mahabharata, Anu.115.33) Bhishma started, "Numberless discourses took place between the Rishis on this subject, O scion of Kuru's race. Listen, O Yudhisthira, what their opinion was. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.7) "The highly wise seven celestial Rishis, the Valakshillyas, and those Rishis who drink the rays of the sun, all speak highly of abstention from meat. "The self-created Manu has said that the man who does not eat meat, or who does not kill living creatures, or who does not cause them to be killed, is a friend of all creatures. Such a man is incapable of being oppressed by any creature. He enjoys the confidence of all living beings. He always enjoys the praise of the pious. The virtuous Narada has said that that man who wishes to multiply his own flesh by eating the flesh of other creatures meets with disaster". (Mahabharata, Anu.115.9-12) "That man, who having eaten meat, gives it up afterwards wins merit by such a deed that is so great that a study of all the Vedas or a performance, O Bharata, of all the sacrifices [Vedic rituals], cannot give its like". (Mahabharata, Anu.115.16) "That learned person who gives to all living creatures the gift of complete assurance is forsooth regarded as the giver of lifebreaths in this world". (Mahabharata, Anu.115.18) "Men gifted with intelligence and purified souls should always treat others as they themselves wish to be treated. It is seen that even those men who are endued with learning and who seek to acquire the greatest good in the shape of liberation, are not free of the fear of death". (Mahabharata, Anu.115.20) "What necessity be said of those innocent and healthy creatures gifted with love of life, when they are sought to be killed by sinful wretches living by slaughter? Therefore, O King, know that the discarding of meat is the highest refuge of religion, of the celestial region, and of happiness. Abstention of injury [to others] is the highest religion. It is, again, the highest penance. It is also the highest truth from which all duty emanates. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.21-23) "Flesh cannot be had from grass or wood or stone. Unless a living creature is killed it cannot be procured. Hence is the fault of eating flesh. The celestials who live upon Svaha, Svadha, and nectar, are given to truth and sincerity. Those persons, however, who are for satisfying the sensation of taste, should be known as Rakshasas [flesh-eating demons] pervaded by the quality of Darkness. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.24-25) "If there were nobody who ate flesh, then there would be nobody to slay living creatures. The man who slays living creatures kills them for the sake of the person who eats flesh. If flesh were not considered as food, there would then be no destruction of living creatures. It is for the sake of the eater that the destruction of living entities is carried on in the world. Since, O you of great splendor, the period of life is shortened by persons who kill living creatures or cause them to be killed, it is clear that the person who seeks his own good should give up meat altogether. Those dreadful persons who are engaged in the destruction of living beings never find protectors when they are in need. Such persons should always be molested and punished even as beast of prey. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.29-32) "That man who seeks to multiply his own flesh by (eating) the flesh of others has to live in this world in great anxiety, and after death has to take birth in indifferent races and families. High Rishis given to the observance of vows and self-control have said that abstention from meat is worthy of praise, productive of fame and Heaven, and a great satisfaction itself. This I heard formerly, O son of Kunti, from Markandeya when that Rishi discoursed on the sins of eating flesh. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.34-36) "He who purchases flesh, kills living creatures through his money. He who eats flesh, kills living beings through his eating. He who binds or seizes and actually kills living creatures is the slaughterer. These are the three sorts of slaughter through each of these acts. He who does not himself eat flesh but approves of an act of slaughter, becomes stained with the sin of slaughter. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.38-39) "That wretched man who kills living creatures for the sake of those who would eat them commits great sin. The eater's sin is not as great. That wretched man who, following the path of religious rites and sacrifices as laid down in the Vedas, would kill a living creature from a desire to eats its flesh, will certainly go to hell. That man who having eaten flesh abstains from it afterwards acquires great merit on account of such abstention from sin. He who arranges for obtaining flesh, he who approves of those arrangements, he who kills, he who buys or sells, he who cooks, and he who eats it, [acquire the sin of those who] are all considered as eaters of flesh. [Therefore] that man who wishes to avoid disaster should abstain from the meat of every living creature. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.44-48) "Listen to me, O king of kings, as I tell you this, O sinless one, there is absolute happiness in abstaining from meat, O king. He who practices severe austerities for a century, and he who abstains from meat, are both equally meritorious. This is my opinion. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.52-53) "Yudhisthira said: Alas, those cruel men who, not caring for various other sorts of food, want only flesh, are really like great Rakshasas [meat-eating demons]. (Mahabharata, Anu.116.1) "Bhishma said: That man who wishes to increase his own flesh by the meat of another living creature is such that there is none meaner and more cruel than he. In this world there is nothing that is dearer to a creature than his life. Hence, one should show mercy to the lives of others as he does to his own life. Forsooth, O son, flesh has its origin in the vital seed. There is great sin attached to its eating, as, indeed, there is merit in abstaining from it. (Mahabharata, Anu.116.11-13) "There is nothing, O delighter of the Kurus, that is equal in point of merit, either in this world or in the next, to the practice of mercy to all living creatures. (Mahabharata, Anu.116.19) "Hence a person of purified soul should be merciful to all living creatures. That man, O king, who abstains from every kind of meat from his birth forsooth, acquires a large space in the celestial region. They who eat the flesh of animals who are desirous of life, are themselves [later] eaten by the animals they eat. This is my opinion. Since he has eaten me, I shall eat him in return. This, O Bharata, forms the character as Mamsah [meaning flesh] of Mamsah [me he, or "me he" will eat for having eaten him]. The destroyer is always slain. After him the eater meets with the same fate. (Mahabharata, Anu.116.32-35)

    This is an oversimplified explanation of vegetarianism vs. nonvegetarianism with the aim to propagate liberalization of people who at present are against the consumption of cow meat in India. I am a Hindu who eats cow meat absolutely by choice. I am also a political liberal which should explain my inherent views against the orthodox idea of food habits and the imposal of laws on them and certain religious groups. However, knowing my religion, while there is no mention against the slaughter of cows for consumption there is still a very valid explanation why Hindus or Sanatans do not consume this meat. Cows are revered as 'gai-mata' for the sole reason that she gives milk which is not just available in abundance but also is the only nourishment after a mother's milk for the new borns, which means, if a child is motherless or cannot be fed her own or another mother's milk, cow's milk will do the job just right and save their life. It must be understood that this philosophy and reason is very powerful. There is a huge stigma around cow meat on both ends of the cow meat consumers and non-consumers. While I understand what drives the conservative Hindus to protect the holy cow, it by no means can justify the violence and intolerance this entire debate has brought forth. Conservatives must understand that personal choices and other religious food habits aren't under their control. Just like a vegetarian cannot be coerced into eating meat an individual who likes to consume any sort of beef should not be forced to give up that part of their life. And consumers of beef too must learn and acknowledge the principal behind the non-consumption of cows instead of treating it as trivial, old-school and ridiculous which can be offensive to many Hindus. The reasons and the policies today must both be revisited and understood by both groups and thought of rationally. As for vegetarianism, it must be kept in mind that this is a preferred diet for Hindus because of its simplistic non-material lifestyle and health reasons over the cruelty of sacrificing animals. If cruelty was the case, 'Bali-dan' wouldn't have been practiced in this part of the world which again really contradicts why not cows then too, but, the status of cows as mothers overpowers any other explanation! What is important for Indian citizens today is that they revisit their religions not for religious reasons but pure knowledge and understanding of themselves. That is lacking and hence, there is a sense of identity insecurity if not a crisis entirely.

    At the end of the day eating meat which brought about an Animal's death for your pleasure is not going to earn you +ve points. If you have an option to not cause an animal's death then you should always take that route. Hinduism gives you freedom to choose your path because in times of famine or still harsher times you may have to kill an animal to survive. That does not mean you should kill for fun and pleasure of your taste buds all the time. The best course is to avoid actions that bring about death for your sensual satisfaction.

    However by calling this caste, it loses its essence, it was never meant to be this way. ब्राह्मणक्षत्रियविशां शूद्राणां च परन्तप | कर्माणि प्रविभक्तानि स्वभावप्रभवैर्गुणै: || 41|| The duties of the Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and Shudras-are distributed according to their qualities, in accordance with their guṇas (and not by birth). शमो दमस्तप: शौचं क्षान्तिरार्जवमेव च | ज्ञानं विज्ञानमास्तिक्यं ब्रह्मकर्म स्वभावजम् || 42 Tranquility, restraint, austerity, purity, patience, integrity, knowledge, wisdom, and belief in a hereafter-these are the intrinsic qualities of work for Brahmins. शौर्यं तेजो धृतिर्दाक्ष्यं युद्धे चाप्यपलायनम् | दानमीश्वरभावश्च क्षात्रं कर्म स्वभावजम् || 43|| BG 18.43: Valor, strength, fortitude, skill in weaponry, resolve never to retreat from battle, large-heartedness in charity, and leadership abilities, these are the natural qualities of work for Kshatriyas. कृषिगौरक्ष्यवाणिज्यं वैश्यकर्म स्वभावजम् | परिचर्यात्मकं कर्म शूद्रस्यापि स्वभावजम् || 44|| Agriculture, dairy farming, and commerce are the natural works for those with the qualities of Vaishyas. Serving through work is the natural duty for those with the qualities of Shudras. When Krishna served Arjuna as the charioteer, he was a Shudra. When he took his cattle to the pastures, he was a Vaishya. So Varna changes on the particular karma you do.

    No animal life can exist without killing another being... so no killing is a romantic idea but impossible to follow. Mindless killing and wasting food is bad - most animal don't kill for pleasure or waste food that credit only goes to the humans - that too not all humans - it's those who are influenced by the desert cult that makes them believe humans are superior and everything else exist solely to be exploited by the humans. Unfortunately the negative intolerant influence of the desert cult has corrupted many Hindus as well due to 800 years for brutal Islamic rule and 200 years of European exploitation, that's why many Hindus (especially the ones from the Cow belt of North India where the brutality of the Islamic invaders was highest) think their way is the only way and everything else is Non-hindu. Most 'vegetarian' Hindus consume massive amount of milk and milk based products without worrying or being concerned about the incredible amount cruelty and violence associated with it... it's this insensitivity and the mindless cruelty that the ideal Hindus should be concerned about - not someones else's food habit that developed due to geographical location, condition and availability.

    As I always question my students about these three questions as well, I'd put them out here too: 1. IF the vegetarian folks think we were always so then could you kindly explain the canine teeth in your jaw? 2. IF you are debunking that, then do you think agriculture happened before the earliest historical "man" discovered it? When did hunting and gathering take place and why was there even a need for that since food source was already available? AND 3. Do cows produce milk for human beings or their calves? It is easy to snatch a poor calf's main food source, in many cases, right after birth, and that's fair? Simply answer those logically and ET VOILA! you have the simple answer keeping all 'religions' to the side. Cheers!

    1. We were not always vegetarian, as advanced human beings though, the idea is to do minimum harm 2. Again, as a superior species minimum harm is expected for spiritual benefit, but Hinduism has never forbidden eating non vegetarian, it's just that one must hunt and eat, then it's fair also some rules are suggested like eating animals with 5 fingers, etc. 3. One must not steal and drink, but it's when calf drinks then we take milk.....

    Our canine teeth are not prominent in our bodies. We have better incisors for that matter. And we are still under the evolution process, we may lose our canines. However, evolution tends to not remove things that are not causing a problem. 2. Hunting was a very old and natural phenomenon. All organisms hunted. Agriculture developed. It was not a sudden process. With generations of artificially selecting species, we got refined sources of food. Agriculture, in the beginning, would not have provided enough food, so they might have relented on hunting and gathering. 3 Obviously dairy is bad period. Now answer my questions, 1. Animal husbandry releases 26% of the GHG emissions. Now how is it justifiable that we pollute the world around us, just for the sake of taste and pleasure? 2. Is it justifiable to kill an animal, only because we have "Canine teeth"?

    Hinduism is not polytheistic, it is monotheistic. All the idols are image of one true god or manifestation of god in different forms. That's why hindus despite who they worship have same goal of breaking the cycle of birth-rebirth and attain moksha to get back to param-brahma(one supreme lord/energy)

    Mr. Pattanaik, Debates are healthy as long as they give the positives and discuss the negatives, they become sick when one tries to deplore or disparage others beliefs / traditions or practices. That is when it turns radical / anti HINDU. India has been mostly an agricultural land. And may be 33 Cr microbes in a cows stomach were what we referred to when we talk of gods in a cows stomach. So it was holy for farmers (Subhash Palekar influence). Not so for others, however they all bought food from these farmers and some may be influenced by them. People and politicians are free to propagate whatever suits their interests, but the real problem is not meat eating but breeding to eat meat as a staple diet 3 times a day. Actually milk was also not a dietary requirement about 60 years back. But all of these British buisnesses milk, beef, tea, medicine etc. go hand in hand (Dr. B.M.Hegde influence). Nothing holy or unholy about it. Its just big money that runs media, propaganda and peoples mind. (Colonial rule, WW1&2 and cold war influence) 3 reasons to avoid meat, the 4th is just personal, 1) belly and intestine exercise: ie. retain its capacity to process natural food (meat is processed food and also cooked meat is also not a healthy option) 2) food economy: We feed large animals like cattle for years and eat its meat for maximum a week. Ok for wild life but breeding buisness is a total wastage of resources. 3) envoirnmental impact: meat production is one of the leading causes of greenhouse gas emissions and other pollution in the atmosphere. And the resources needed for feed and water would soon make us look for unnatural forms of nutrition. 4) non-violence: Most meat eaters would not have the guts to look in to the eyes of a mammal they breed (did not find a better word in english) and chop off its head. Try doing it to your dog. Atleast I don't and I would believe my parents don't and also wouldn't want my kids to be so cruel either. Every Indian belief (nothing right or wrong about it) had a logical basis. To eat or not is just a made up question to create differences among people. Its the foreigners, arabs, mughals, english who made these rifts and differences in our societies. And under the great English education or arab funded madrasas we carry the shame forward and blindly adopt everything even distincly related to them. The educated class in our country unconsciously prefers products having English names and despises / is reluctant to follow any harmless traditional practice. Like having a particular kind of food in some seasons or festivals. NOTE: I have lived in other parts of the world and no other country in the world is even close to India in the diversity that we have in food. Cooking has been an art and absolutely no other country knows how to cook vegetables the way we do. The number of traditional vegetable cuisines is innumerable. Cooking raw papayas to banana tree stems to flower jams to thousands of pickles, and god knows what not. Some Asian countries like Thailand have some of these cuisines but lack the geographical diversity. Whereas westerners cant even immagine the enormousness of the traditional cuisines. 75% of the worlds spices comes from India. And now we educated urbans are limiting ourselves to paneer alu and bhindi which have a longer shelf life and easily cooked in restaurants.

I don't really care what ancient Indians were, I just know what is right and what is wrong. Ancient Indians used to hunt, (and they did not have the resources), however what about today, rich Indians have all the resources to be vegetarian. Why can't they? Vegetarianism is the correct way.

    As an East Indian (Coastal Oriya) brahmin - fish is our staple. Mutton and chicken occasionally. No beef of course. Buffalo yes. Non veg consumption should not be a parameter for a real hindu. in Bali, their hindus roast entire pigs for festivals and marriages. Assam, Bengal, Manipur, Odisha, Bihar, NE, Kerala and few other places brahmins diet is non veg. The vegetarian nazis of present day India are imposing their unhealthy, myopic and bigoted views of Sanatana Dharma on the rest of us. North Indian culture and present day fetish of cow worship is backward, heavily influenced by abrhamic influences and a stain on a modern Hindu thought ecosystem. Raja Ram Mohan Roy would be spinning in his resting space looking at what has happened to "reformed" Hinduism. Cow is more precious than humans. Just crazy!
