Default Eating MEAT as PER HINDU VEDAS

Eating MEAT as PER HINDU VEDAS / MAHABHARATA
21 February 2010
By Muktak Joshi


HINDU SCRIPTURES ALLOW NON-VEGETARIAN FOODSome Hindus think that it is
against their religion to have non-vegetarian food But the fact is that
the Hindu scriptures permit a person to have meat The scripture mentions
sages and saints having meat. Hindu scriptures clearly mention that
there is nothing wrong in having meat.It is mentioned in Manu Smruti,
the law book of Hindus!

In chapter 5 verse 30 “The eater who eats the flesh of those to be eaten
does nothing bad! even if he does it day after day; for God himself
created some to be eaten and some to be eater”Again next verse of Manu
Smruti that is; chapter 5 verse 31 says “Eating meat is right for the
sacrifice, this is traditionally known as a rule of the gods”Further in
Manu Smruti chapter 5 verse 39 and 40 says “God himself created
sacrificial animals for sacrifice… therefore killing in a sacrifice is
not killing.”Manu Smruti even narrates the supremacy of killing animals
in sacrifice it is mentioned in chapter 5 verse 42 “A twice born (a
Brahmin) who knows the true meaning of Vedas and injures sacrificial
animals for CORRECT PURPOSES cause both himself and the animal to go to
the highest level of existence”.

Among the Hindu scriptures Vedas are considered as most ancient and most
sacred. We find mentioning of non-vegetarian food in Vedas too it is
mentioned in Rig-Veda book 10 Hymn 27 verse 2 “Then will I, when I lead
my friends to battle against the radiant persons of godless, prepare for
thee at home a vigorous bullock, and pour for thee the fifteen fold
strong juices”Again in RigVeda book 10 Hymn 28 verse 3 it says “0 Indra,
Bulls they dress for thee, and of these (meat) thou eatest when
Maghavan, with food thou art invited”. In Rig veda Book 10 Hymn 86 verse
13 says “indra will eat thy bulls, thy dear oblation that effecteth
much. Supreme is Indra over all”These verses indicates that Indra, a god
of vedic age, used to eat meat.Also another god of vedic age, Agni, is
referred to as “flesh-eater’ in vedas.
