Is Meat Eating and Animal Sacrifice part of Hinduism? (Veg Vs Non-Veg diet)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 дек 2018
- Most Hindus associate a vegetarian diet with their religion. But many Hindus eat meat and Hinduism also has a history of animal sacrifice. How exactly then is vegetarianism linked to Sanathana Dharma as a whole? This video explains the connection. Using history, Hindu scripture and philosophy the case for a vegetarian/vegan diet is made. In doing so we can see exactly how animal welfare is central to Sanathana Dharma.
I am christian, but the logic, explanation of birth, reincarnation altruism, peace and non violence, care for every living being in hinduism makes a lot of sense
Hey dear...
Hinduism is all about our own thinking and actions..
According to Hinduism
One does not needs to convert into Hinduism to get salvation..
Everyone including atheist can get salvation if their actions R good...
The TV Series "The Good Place" follows a similar kind of philosophy
I hope u will follow ur duty or "Dharma" of being a human..
And will always take side of peace...
#OmShanti
don't fall into trap, these philosophy are good to hear but truth is different
your Christian this is the only reason Im tying
my entire family and my life is eaten by these hindu gods I fed them according to vedas what they needed but finally I came to *Yeshua* not one of these gods can move a thing
you like hinduism it's okey if you don't believe what im saying truth you can comment on my channel and I'll prove you everything I typed you
Animals came with us on earth not for us
Nischal Koch wait I have 50 characters for a name? Natuurlijk, hinduisme is fascinerend.

Hindoeïsme is inderdaad fascinerend. Je denkt dat je veel weet, maar eenmaal als je aan het leren bent, kom je erachter dat je weinig weet.
Er is ook geen vaste manier van hindoeïsme en je zal het moeilijk begrijpen als je het vanuit een christelijke/islamtische/joodse lens bekijkt.
Vroeger ging ik naar de kerk, maar toen ik begon te leren over het hindoeïsme werd ik verliefd. Zo’n interessante religie is het. Ik ben zelf een Indiër, maar net als velen van ons, weten we niks over het hindoeïsme.
What a coincidence that just today I decided to give up meat :)
@Nj69er Actually I've watched the documentary but the information in it was somewhat exaggerated, and they said "sugar isn't the cause of diabetes" , which is utterly incorrect, and the blamed cholestrol as the main culprit, but they didn't even discuss what is cholestrol and how important is it for body. Search Dr. Berg on youtube and you'll find a lot of valuable info and insights on this topic. And about dairy, the information was very specific to America and developed nations. Where as in India most of milk is sourced from local farmers who don't breed cows in industries. So the milk is much safer here.
P.S: When i said I decided to give up meat, it included eggs as well. So dairy is the only thing now.
Very good .
Good for you and good you get all the thanks from those poor animals. Welcome to the real humanism.

Wow
I am a Christian and I Believe in Hindunisam... 5 year's I have being Learning Hindunisam...and I am a vege. ... I made the right decision .. Thank you so much for this message... With Love And Gratitude... Blessings Love And Light.... 🙏❤️😇🕉️...
nah this mf capping
How would that work out ? Because in Christianity they only accept Jesus as Lord and worshipping any other god is ildorty and yet in Hinduism there is over 33 million God's how can you be a Christian who worships Jesus and the Hindu gods at the same time? Doesn't make sense
@@Scott-rf1unit's actually 33 types and all of the gods are just different manifestations of the supreme God.
I am hindu from birth. I have never eaten non-veg in my whole life till now.Because foods in Hinduism are divided into three categories And I, my family prefer only one which is called Satvik.
Well you are not eating Satwik food its Rajsi food !!! The food that consist high spices. Satwik food is vegetables fruits nuts with less or no spices !! :) well , I am vegetarian, too !!
Same here bro. Î haven't yet seen any kind of non vegetarian foods with my naked eyes still yet. Have seen it only in movies, social media, TV and etc
Satvik food is best.
I pray the Human beings move in the path of Dharma, Ahimsa, etc. No animals should get killed just for the tongue😢😢😢,,,,,,, may Krishna bless this world ❤🙏🙏🙏
i am sikh and i appreciate your attempt to defend dharma

But Hinduisme in Indonesia,we all eating meat.In Indonesia we don't know about this.Om Namah Sivaya 🕉️
Sorry if my English bad.
Isnt Indonesia primarily Islamic country? Have forgotten dharmic way of thinking possibly, as has India.
JustOnceGaming 28 , It’s ok, it’s not to late, ask for forgiveness from god, and please follow vegetarian diet, that does not even include eggs, no eggs
Bro, start practising yog and read bhagavad gita translations by S. Radhakrishnan and Mahatma Gandhi.
You will get to know the essence of Hindu Dharma.
Don't kill and eat
Indian hidus also eats meat.
excellent video! i can't be vegetarian right now because i still live with my parents and the last time i did i became anemic but when i go to college next year i will cut out meat. i'm taking baby steps and i stopped eating beef 🙏🏾
All the best.
Hi..i would suggest you to follow doctor Micheal Gregor's channel on RUclips to get an idea of what to eat on a plant based diet and stay healthy.You might need to do a little planning initially but later it would become natural.You can also follow indian recipes as we have a lot of vegetarian recipes with an array of vegetables that makes it easier for us to get all nutritients.Also don't forget B12 supplement.
i have sickle cell anima, i am vegetarian. i take ayurvedic medicines. If your meds are not helping you can try ayurvedic medicines.
Good for you .
May krsna bless you
Plzz make atleast one video in a week....thank u😍👌 i love vegetarian...ppl...
@Nj69er but vegetarianism is the first step. Many ppl find it difficult to become vegan at once, from day to day. It takes time and requires some 'education' what to eat to keep body in good condition. Please be respectful to all kinds of progress and acts of good will like the one above

Zakir Naik makes me so 😡 angry
Krishna, God, christ is moved by LOVE. thats the difference from other religions
Sweetie , he makes a lot of people angry.He is a mediocre. Please , nobody eat Zakir Naik because he is a PIG in disguise. LOL !!!
Hindus who are aware of their scriptures,can easily put down frauds like him.
He is a big liar and often misguides the people ....just ignore such terrorists and swines.....
The Lifester ... islam is all about conquest and 0 about love..the word love is never used...only peace.. no peace without love.
Wow! Your knowledge about Hinduism is so impressive! I am an hindu and like many of us, we have no clue about these values. Thank you for your guidance 🙏
I am an occasional meat eater but i never think i am doing the right thing. If i see this whole process of killing, i know i would never be able to eat it. 😭
I had a lot of respect for devdutt pattanaik but I started doubting him when he said that Hinduism allows meat eating...and then I found Rajiv Malhotra Fully exposed him in his channel where he showed how he fooled all Hindus with his Book "My Gita" Which is full of Errors!
Same experience lol.
Agreed
ruclips.net/video/vtkMFLuOa3M/видео.html
Here's a full 1 hour video exposing Devdutt Pattanaik!
@@litomatoma109 I came about those expose from Ajit vadakayil.. He told these things in 2014 something itself.
@Siva chetty quite funny I am a subscriber of your channel......but you need to understand one thing in a very friendly manner sir
What Devdutt Pattanaik is doing is nothing but corrupting our Holy Texts which is quite damaging in its own...any one can make a bad meaning out of it by quoting from the best selling author of Hinduism.. which is not promoting Hinduism but it is these quotes from the corrupted best seller which are giving Muslims, Christians and atheists to speak against our sanatan dharam.. just see My Gita.....u would be shocked and be saddened to see difference in meanings in the original and his my gita and the worst thing is that he does not say it's a fiction book...he is just a person who got teachings from the western scholars...
This is where our sanatan dharam is falling why are we buying My Gita when we can buy the original from the same site and supporting them...this is where the Abrahamic religions are shining you won't find MY BIBLE there
When a person even he is of our own religion and is our brother... writing books and selling million copies on our religion and is utterly changing the meaning in a destructive way which is being taken by non believers....then that man deserve nothing but criticism.
And We don't need to fight Christian and Muslim they can get the answer by reading our original scriptures but we need to fight those who are changing our holy scriptures meaning and making Non believers and even believers read his books instead of original eg.(My Gita instead of Shrimad Bhagvad Gita) And By the way Even Christians and Muslims are our brothers too because they are also bound by Karma and all Humans comes under reality...thanks for reading. I think I said a lot.
Jai shree Ram!
Jai shree Krishna!
Will we be happy to turn our body into graveyard of innumerable corpses?? Well said👌👌
Thanks for information 🙏🙏🙏👌👌👌👌👍 Hinduism is way of life 🚩🚩🚩🚩
All religions are ways of life. That is the definition of religion.
If eating meat and killing animals is part of your life then your life is a shameful one (Whatever excuss you can give in name of your religion. It wont correct it).
@Stc Replace word brahmin as Saivatees. It was Saivatees,Sakthas who did that. I never told anywhere Saivam or Saktham has a vedic root. They were non-vedic cult and got themself converted into vedic only during 10th century CE.
@Stc Vaishnavas never did Animal killing. read veda vyakaanama and bhaashyams of Vaishnva Acharyas to know the real meaning of those stanzas. Till now no Vaishnava Acharyas (starting from 8000 BCE to till current date has supported or done or justified animal sacrifices). Dont confuse shaivam with vaishnavam. Shaivam was a non-vedic cult. You are talking about Shaivam ans Saktham. Yes they are barbaric cult. They dont come under Vedic.
@Stc Nope. Your claims regarding Vaishnavam are false. Have you read Vishnu purana ? Have you read original Valmiki Ramayana ? Only Valmiki Ramayana is authorised. In Original epic there is no such claims.
I feel so blessed to born in a vegetarian family actually all my relatives and neighbors and 85% of my friends are vegetarian we have zero non veg restaurant or hotel at our town cause more than 75% people are vegetarian im 19yr old I have never seen any kind of non veg food for real I've only watched in tvs
Please be vegan. Dairy is the cruelest industry on the planet
I was a meat eater and so was my father.
Throughout the times when I used to hesitate seeing animal being butchered in front of me my father would always teach me that though we are eating it, it's अधर्म! I asked then why do we eat he answered in a confused way and gradually within 2 months we were turned vegetarians.
Yes ...
My understanding is that everything that lives, lives because of the presence of the spirit soul. This also goes for plants and trees. All ending of a life is considered sinful and creates karma. Bhagavd Gita 9:26 states; "If one offers Me with love and devotion a leaf, a flower, fruit a water, I will accept it." BG 3:13 states: "The spiritually-minded, who eat food that is first offered in sacrifice, are released from all kinds of sin. Others, who cook food for their own enjoyment, verily eat only sin." From which follows: Food should be vegetarian and prepared and offered with love and devotion for Krishna, and He'll accept it. What's left after offering is prasadam, spiritual food. Although it looks the same it has no karma attached. Hare Krishna!
Nice sir
satvik food.
Hare krsna right
Right,
@@ayezaamin1510
True said whatever u eat u should first offer to god or u are eating sin.
Much appreciated for this video, I had many questions and now they are answered! I am new to Hinduism and yes, the dairy industry in America is heinous, thus why I do not enjoy buying dairy here. Keep spreading the word of Sanatan Dharma, you are doing a wonderful job. राम राम. ॐ नमः शिवाय!
Lots of love from Bangladesh, dear.
Om Shanti 🕉️
U have understood Hinduism (sanatana dharma) more 60% of all the Hindu in India many thanks brother
Great video thank you. Killing and hurting animals breaks my heart.
Animals came with us on earth not for us.give them love not pain and fear
Well said. We share this planet with those animals. We have intelligence, not to exploit them but to care them. Animals have equal rights in this planet.
@Lucifer Iblees mostly indians understand only vegetarian not vegan.only those understand vegan who are highly educated or who speaks English very well. So its better to write vegetarian not vegan.samaj mei ajaye vo msg hai
@Lucifer Iblees I don't support any cruelty against animals.ruclips.net/video/lCYZ9APsUfA/видео.html
@Lucifer Iblees But the dairy industry in India isn't cruel, cows, buffalos, ox's are all treated well with ethics. We don't punish our cows to give ourselves milk...
@Lucifer Iblees I think you don't realize you are doing same with the plants
The difference is you can't see the pain of plants
Just don't eat plants as well. I think plants are more useful than animals
You are back

Exactly I am a vegan Hindu from last 5 months.
I agree with you 100% its time that Hindus should become vegan and promote it. I had the same views and you expressed it in the best way

ALL GLORIES TO MOTHER COW
Now I am regretting my life choices but still I stay at the pivot point of decision making in my life.
Well thanks for making this video it forces me to go vegan but can't really accept it in my current form of life.
It's such a paradox in this Kali yug...........
STAY AWAY FROM PEOPLE WHO FEED YOU DEAD BODIES MASSACRED. THE REST WILL FOLLOW. SIMPLE.
*WHY DOES THIS CHANNEL NOT HAVE A MILLION SUBSCRIBERS*
Please make one video every hour 😊
Lol what😂
You must be a Guru....
I became your fan
A 2013 study by the U. N. Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) estimated that total annual emission from animal agriculture (production emission plus land usage change) were about 14.5 percent of all human emissions, of which beef contributed 41 percent.
A diet heavy in meat increases the risk of obesity, Cancer and heart diseases. But it also makes the planet sick.
By replacing meat with vegetarian sources of protein, we can reduce Carbon and other greenhouse gas emissions. The whole food production process of farm-to-plate totals 30% of all global greenhouse gas emissions. Many studies have shown that vegetarians are less likely to get certain disease and type 2 diabetes.
So, the idea of vegetarianism shall not be seen as just for religious purpose (although some religions promote it), it shall be for the benefit of our own planet.
You nice, keep going.
🤗🤗🤗🤗
In our texts meat is allowed only if you don't have access to other foods like if you live in remote areas where vegetables aren't present. But in modern days you have access to veg foods in almost every place, so we must avoid non vegetarian foods and yes even eggs.
And dairy. Dairy is the cruelest industry on the planet
I have been waiting for a video on this topic for a while... Thanks Dharma Speaks for educating us on this...
I'm not a vegetarian but I really appreciate your explanation. Please do more these kind of awareness videos.
Namaste. Thanks for the amazing video. However there is correction that we need to make. Ahimsa doesn’t mean non-violence. It means minimum violence. You have also mentioned it few times. When we take Ahimsa as minimum violence, it makes more sense in Santana Dharma. Firstly, as one becomes more conscious, he or she tends to become more aware of life. Hence conscious beings moves towards vegetarianism or becomes vegan.
Why plants are considered less life than animals? Let’s you look at the energy transfer chain: plants receive energy from Sun and covert it to matter. The matter is eaten by herbivores which are eaten by omnivores or carnivores. So for a conscious being, what is the minimum violence that he can do? Of course the answer is to eat plants so that the energy waste during the transfer of energy is minimum.
As one becomes more conscious, he eats the minimum to stay alive. So he minimizes harm caused to the earth and plants.
Being Hindu is journey and not a set of moral values that needs to be followed.
Dipankar Kalita I like the way you describe it, I am trying to transition to lacto-vegetarianism but it is difficult because I live with family, who are of different lifestyle. I hope I can someday fully transition to my new lifestyle, राम राम!
kiryu2000 similar is my case. Hopefully both of us will be able transition to vegetarianism soon
Animals can feel pain but plants don't have nervous system.
Our body has herbivores digestive system. We distrmurb the meat chemically to make it eatable otherwise humans can't digest raw meat.
Eating plants isn't violence in anyways. Its not like plant always dies. We eat it's one part. Even if it dies how does it matter if it does not feel pain, doesn't have family or any sort of emotions.
However animal have right to live... They have emotions, family.
They feel pain like us.
Why to kill if we have enough alternatives to eat.
There is huge variety of vegetarian foods, they are just awesome.
Why can't we go for that.
Eating meat is not even good... For health is proved scientifically.
Humans are pseudo meat eaters... They aren't allowed by nature.... They are experimentally fitting meat in eatable form.
They are slaughtering animals on large scale.
Disturbing ecological system of earth.
Let's go vegan.
Let's say no to meat.
Glad ur back, another great video, but i feel there's much more need to be done to put an end to all these cruelty, maybe stronger laws etc....i still blame the gods for allowing all these innocent animals to suffer decade after decades. Each year is getting worser and they have the power to put a stop to it, but do nothing. Maybe you should make a video explaining why is that so, thanks in advance.
OMG....I miss your videos so much..please upload regularly...you will have large following in no time...just upload atleast once every 2 weeks....I want you to have large number of followers because you are creating awareness which is a good thing :)
I love your channel, thank you for spreading dharma and creating these beautiful videos!!!
This is one of the best videos I have seen on the subject. Congratulations. You have so beautifully explained the Hindu thought which even a prcticing Hindu will be able to do. Thank you very much.Will love to see more such videos from you.
Many thanks for making such a clear and methodical video. The amount if research and devotion you put into these videos really amazes me. I look forward to many more such videos. You shed light into some of the most fundamental truths of human life.
Due to my circumstances, I can't become a vegetarian right now. But I decided to become a vegetarian sooner or later. I used to talk with my girlfriend about it frequently. And we both agree that after getting married we will lead a non-veg life.
Thanks for making such a video, sir...💙

@Mullo Ka Baap did you even watch the whole video dude? He literally said hinduism promotes vegetarianism. Moreover I'm sad to say this but most of the Hindus have become non vegetarian including me and I feel utterly disgusted. I'll be leaving meat very soon
Spot on mate spot on! Kudos

Here
Veganism is unhealthy. Dairy products are essential.
@Mullo Ka Baap i am medical student and according to doctors.....lipids which known as fat is also important for our body.....vegan is best diet for actress or models......but we should take dairy products because it is very necessary for our body......so don't be a vegan
@@Harsh-ps2fc there are so many vegetables u can eat that will produce fat in ur body
Potato , avocado , sweet corns and beans many more
Hinduism is not a religion it is a lifestyle
I hope the benefits of this lifestyle transcends to the world
Also there are many modern people claiming to be hindu and carrying out bad practices i totally condemn their idea and they are not following this culture rather they have made some cult out of few mixed ideas and conclusions
I see few giving negative comments about hinduism ,maybe they have not understood the true form of hinduism and might have encountered the cults
But please try to understand the thing before passing any judgements be it anything.
Also make videos on the holy vedas
Love your videos
Dharmic Religion's Mostly Animal Lover's😊🙏
sir ,how are you developing such a deep understanding?
I love this video... it is very well said
great video
I would just like to add that dairy has always been a part of dharmic life, Krishna was famous for loving dairy a bit too much. Indians rear cows at home and the milk from them is not extracted in a cruel manner with calves going hungry. Traditional method involves one calf at a teat, while other teat is used to collect. Cows and calves are raised as family and worshipped. Har har mahadev
The way milk is extracted from cows in india is completely different to west. WE had cows in my village as well and we would never separate the mother from its calf or impregnate it artifically. The cows produce more milk than the calf needs to consume. WE can only take the excess milk and not the one which is meant for the calf
When I was child some time I had to eat meat, but I always like vegetables and legumes over meat. I used to pray to God to protect me from eating meat as I used to get a very yekeeee feeling when ever I had to eat meat. God listen to my prayers and turned my entire family into vegetarian. Not only that my husband who used to love meat also turned into vegetarian all by his own will when he came to know that I am vegetarian . 😀🙏
Hinduism is not a way of life. Its a way of thinking based on which you are free to design your way of life.
I'm partice Hellenisom which similar to Hinduism were are also orthparxic and we do have teaching about how eating meat is wrong or even "sinful" but it's not essential and I myself eat meat with the exception of pork which is traditionally forbidden in my sect. Animal's are said to have souls just as we do they even have the possibility to reincarnate into humans. This was a great video.
7:39 is the most important info for all people who make excuses that plants and animals both have life and are same for food.
As i watched further, those disturbing real scenes on animal torture and slaughter made me sad, very sad.
And 9:37 , is also imp. You become what you eat.
Great insight, ahimsa is the way.
Hare Krishna
Back a little while when I was more devoted to spiritual practice I was able to walk up to other creatures without scaring them off, I would just observe the animals and have this feeling that deep within me and the animal there was no difference between us. I would have massive empathy for them and burst into a deep level of humility and joy(with my eyes sometimes turning into a waterfall tears). Another thing I noticed was that during this time whenever I was eating meet I'd feel a deep level of guilt.
Zakir Naik quote says some animals are meant to eat and others to be eaten, applies ANIMALS: the flesh-eaters and the vegetable and milk consumers, not by men.
I decided to avoid eating meat
pliz do a vid. on evaluation of human and creation of universe according to hinduism... i really cannot grab the idea of these subject coz there r different view on it ......
i decided to give up meat right after i watched Earthlings
Me too. I gave up meat, fish, dairy, and eggs. I follow the vegan diet
Hey man u r amazing !!!!!
Thank you, You are a Good Man
I had a question in this matter. Does plants have soul as animals does? Many says they may have, but we can make a new tree from a Branch of an another tree in case of many species. so does it gets another soul!!!! Makes no sence . I am a little confused.
Sadhguru ji gives a good explanation of meat eating.
