Why Hindus Cannot Eat Beef?

 Why Hindus Cannot Eat Beef?

This  article is purely to Hindus alone.

Hindus were prohibited from 

eating beef for many reasons. 

1. Protected animal. 

Sacrificial Yagna is for rain water

cycle. Only products of cow

(Pancha gavya; milk, yogurt, ghee,

cow dung and cow urine) can be

used as basic ingredients. Cow is

created by God for the very purpose

of yagna and abhishekam. Without cow,

Yagna cannot be performed. 

2. Sacred animal of Mahadeva. 

Favourite animal of Lord Shiva. 

Susila is the favourite cow of

Mahadeva in Brindavan under

the care of Govardan. (as per

Siva Purana). Shiva is

the gateway for Moksha, eating

beef will incurred wrath of Mahadeva,

thus losing the chances of Moksha

in this life. 

While Basava is the bull of Sivaperuman

send to help human to plough paddy

fields, this is the foundation of

jallikathu in Tamil Nadu.

3. Scriptures Prohibited it. 

Vedas to Puranas did mentioned

about sin of eating / killing /hurting

cows. Consequences of drowning in

hell for a longer term , born deformed

in next life (Garuda Purana) etc. Eating

non vege without a proper ritual/ prayer

also wrong/ incur sin but there is parihara

to escape from drowning in the hell

but not for beef.

4. Fallout / Outcasted. 

Eating beef, one can fall out from

Varnasrama to Chandala / Avarna

/outcaste in this life. Any deeds which

are against basic foundation of Hinduism/

Sanatana Dharma will lead to fall out.

5. Cow as reflection of 14 lokas.

A sacred cow is seen as the reflection of

14 lokas and resided by Deities. So during

Gomata pujas, it considered we are praying

all Deities in different lokas at microcosmic

level. Maha Lakshmi resides in the back of

of cow.

6. Other reasons. 

a.Mother cow or gomatha. As mother to many of humans. 

We had drink cow milk sometime in our life. No one can 

deny they never drank cow milk. Manusmriti sets its 

rules on how to use of cow milk. The emotion and 

sensitivity, it is like killing the mother who gave milk.

b.Remover  of Negative energy. The presence of cow and 

calf will remove any negative energy in the surround. 

That is the reason during house warming or new temple

Kumbhabhisegam, cow and calf as must. Cow urine 

have special property to discard evil spirits.

c.Cow dung as fuel, anti septic and building material. 

Were used by Hindus for millennials.

d.Bull as farmers' friend, help in ploughing, transport 

and etc. Jallikathu is part of this. Krishna the cowherd,

He Himself had took part in 'Jallikathu'. (Srimad Bhagavatam)

Sadguru Jaggi Vasu's View on Beef ...

We are pastoral Society, for ages our health, economy and well being

determined by the cow. If have cows in home, even in draughts/

famine, children will be healthy, the wisdom of this culture.

They are not just an animal, they part of family, they shed

tears if someone in the family died. The bond, the emotion...

And to preserve the soil, every acre must have cows other wise

the soil become barren/ useless in long run.

Conclusion.

If you are a Hindu or Sanatana Dharmi, then you should

protect Gomata. No where in any of authentic Hindu

Scriptures approved the beef eating.

Others who are NOT Hindus, it is their right to consume what

they want, And it is NOT a license to insult Hindus' Faith.

In the end they reap their karma. Not Hindus.

Some ill minded gang of karuppar kootham (EV Ramasamy

Periyavengayam stooges and fanboys) are slandering on

Hindu scriptures by misinterpreting it and claiming that

scriptures approved beef eating. They even promote eating

beef purposely to divert the Hindu mind. But every Hindu

knew this is lie, slander and blasphemy against Hinduism

and Hindu Scriptures.

Anyone can eat anything as per their need or wishes.

No one should demeaned another's food (it is sin to demean

another's food). But no Hindu should/will eat beef. If one

eats knowingly, he/she is a NOT Hindu.

This article is not about race or gender or about other religious/faith's

opinion. It is just Hindu opinions, as the other faith's got their own opinion.

Om Namasivaya.

PS. Those Chicken burger lovers, please avoid any burger stalls/restaurants if/because they are using the same frying pan to fry both chicken and beef. It is time to rethink and reset our attitude. We Hindus normally respect food of others even we are prohibited to eat that. But this tolerance/ respect attitude of food is misunderstood and become laughing stock against Hindus.
