      @ProjectShivoham why mushrooms ? In Bagavatham a story mentioned that demon name "vruttasura" While fighting with Maha vishnu, the demon blood drops touched the earth and that's how mushrooms born. Those who follow vedic traditions like brahmins or pure vegetarians will not eat mushrooms. Its poison and dangerous and this is also main reason its alien kind of type and it comes strictly under non veg food. The same story explained in one of the RUclips video by Brahmasri shanmuka sharma garu channel.

    Don’t be so polite about what is today known as biriyani. The maharaja Nala recipe compilation is the oldest recipe Testament in the world while the Europeans claim their few hundred years old book is the oldest. The 10 kings war and the dispersion of the vanquished to particularly the Middle East is well reminiscent in their DNA and cultures and the original biriyani is very much the gift of bharat

    Hi Shivoham, I've been your subscriber for some years now, this is the first time I'm requesting a video and this is because I think this is a very crucial topic about our tradition and values.
    The topic is clothing of Ancient Bharatiya and their thoughts on modesty and how they contrast with today.
    I ask this because I think the modern ideas of modesty specifically for women stems heavily from the abrahamic view of modesty, and a coherent narrative with historical references can be very fruitful in this regard.
    The reason I think this is an important topic to be discussed is Becz i think, like dupatta and extreme girl child preference in North West India, the modern ideas of modesty are also adaptation of foreign ideas by Indians due to the pressures posed by foreign invaders.
    I say this because, if we see any ancient moortis of any Mata, we see that not only did they not cover their chests, rather they show them as plump as possible, showing that the breasts weren't considered as an object of sexual ideas then, and not a taboo to people of those times.
    I think talking about this topic and bringing out at least the factual up and in the ongoing public discourse is an important step towards mental decolonisation.
    Edit: just saw that you took up the topic of meat eating, this gives me hope that you're at the very least not afraid of taking up tough topics.

      I fell what you mean, and I am in a similar situation, it is sorta like a 50/50, from the little I know the devas, only ate after doing a ritual, not just as a normal person would just buy it from a store and cook it at home. To focus on the ritual point, the only reason I can think of is that the karma of the animal or something is reset and it can be reborn again as human, not 100% sure on that but it rings a bell. At the end of the day if there is anyone I can trust to eat meat and only during a ritual and hopefully not consistently and will ensure that the karma of the animal will allow it to reborn into a human, it is the one and only Shri Ram.

    • @JohnnyChan-oz7zw

      How can you claim that Lord Rama ate meat? This is a misconception. Lord Rama never consumed meat. Due to 1,000 years of foreign invasions, meat consumption became normalized in India, and some scriptures may have been corrupted. According to the Puranas, in Satyuga and Tretayuga, only asuras and chandalas consumed meat. In Dwaparayuga and Kaliyuga, it was primarily anaryas and mlechhas who ate meat. During Kaliyuga, under the influence of the evil Kali, mlechhas became dominant and invaded Bharat, influencing many Indians to adopt meat-eating practices. Before Kaliyuga, meat-eating was not prevalent in Bharat, and Lord Rama, being an ideal adherent of dharma, was a vegetarian.

    One important point to this beautiful presentation.
    Combine ancient knowledge with modern for best outcomes
    1. Potato is a high glycemic index carbohydrates.
    Replacing healthy vegetables with tasty potatoes is one cause of India’s Diabetes epidemic.
    Terrible is the combination of
    Aloo-paratha; aloo-puri; aloo-bhat (aloo-rice)
    2. Seed oils such as mustard and sesame seed are best if extracted “kachi ghani “
    Today these are heat extracted and multiply pressed - causing formation of compounds that increase risk of inflammation (such as arthritis) and of cancer.
    3. White rice, white wheat (maida) and white sugar are processed to stay stable longer.
    Loss of fibre causes rapid rise in sugar that damages many organs.
    This is followed by a sharp drop in sugar causing rapid hunger pangs.
    Stay with whole foods

At one of these sites I have excavated burnt black gram from multiple pits and silos along with animal bones in Rajasthan.
    Besides that, we have stone tools which were used for cleaving meat and hides by hunters from the paleolithic to mesolithic ages. The reduction in sizes of these tools also show the probability of smaller animals in later periods.

    Wonderful video, that's backed by logic, evidences & references than blind emotions.
    Its Neo Vaishnavism by business community (with North Indian Brahmins) & Middle-ages (15th century) Vaishnavite movements that pushed vegetarianism as tradition mostly to other from Muslim society.
    Shri Rama was a Kshatriya, Kshatriyas are allowed to eat meat due to nature of Varna (lifestyle+job).
    This is why old Vaishnavism (only Brahmin Vaishnavites are to be veg as they have to uphold Varna) in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka (Vokkaligas), Rajputs (who consider themselves descendents of Shri Rama/Shri Krishna), North Eastern people whose rulers were married into Mahabharata clans etc all eat non-vegetarian/meat that's still cooked as per traditional sense.
    The Military Hotel Style (in Karnataka) meat cooking tradition & recipes prepared by Vokkaligas/Gowdas, Marathis, Savjis etc & Coastal Karavali style by Shetty/Bunts is actually 1000s of years old (these communities too were Kshatriyas & have many Vaishnavites)

    My Q: Why in ManuSmriti times were Brahmins mandated to be vegetarian? 27:18 Was it already believed to be a pre-requisite for higher spritual upliftment by that time? Were there other social/ political reasons?
    U mentioned that vegetarianism trend took hold after Mahabharat times so wondering what was the rationale for proscribing Brahmins with vegetarianism ( n mushroom avoidance) in times earlier?
    Thank you for this work. Yr dedication shows. This piece is like Magnum Opus on this topic 4 curious minds.
    I personally am a vegetarian n believe a global tilt towards vegetarianism is better for us 4 many ecological, ideological, geo-political reasons. But have always known we have eaten meat at various times thru history.
    Reaching 4 truth should always be the highest goal in reasearch. As they say Satyamev Jayate. Satyam Shivam Sundaram.

    Please note that every recipe is a creation of that time period as to what appeals to the people around. Biryani is actually a dedication of thanks to the indian subcontinent of spices and food culture. Theh deliberately thay many aromatic spices bcz that variety existed in the market.
    This video is also a testimonial to how India is truly the place for multiple religions to peacefully coexist.
    Everything on this video is easily halal and kosher.

In no way can one laugh and make fun of people who believe that Lord Ram never ate meat, it's like they are implying that, "look Ram was no different, he was just another non vegetarian, alcoholic hunter." He is and always will be a revered and dear God to Hindus. I don't care what he ate, i care about how he lived. Jai shree Ram 🙏🏽

      How can you claim that Lord Rama ate meat? This is a misconception. Lord Rama never consumed meat. Due to 1,000 years of foreign invasions, meat consumption became normalized in India, and some scriptures may have been corrupted. According to the Puranas, in Satyuga and Tretayuga, only asuras and chandalas consumed meat. In Dwaparayuga and Kaliyuga, it was primarily anaryas and mlechhas who ate meat. During Kaliyuga, under the influence of the evil Kali, mlechhas became dominant and invaded Bharat, influencing many Indians to adopt meat-eating practices. Before Kaliyuga, meat-eating was not prevalent in Bharat, and Lord Rama, being an ideal adherent of dharma, was a vegetarian.

    I also agree with the view point that whether Bhagwan Ram are meant or not is not relevant, the things which he did and he stood for is what is relevant and what needs to be projected. Bhagwan Ram is an ideal human being as he is a good son, a responsible husband and over and above all this he was an able and judicious administrator and king who put the welfare and well being of his subjects above everything. That is why the concept of Ramrajya is enshrined even in the Indian constitution. Let us remember the shloka " रामो विग्रहवान् धर्म साधु सत्य पराक्रमः"

    Based on some research it is derived that these rhymms related to eating meat products and using them for yajnas were actually included by the people(including pandits) for their own benefit or for making people believe that Sanatani are also meat eaters for proving their agenda.
    I can't believe that a religion who is so careful for the life of every living being can't consume meat products for satisfying their taste buds.

    Sattvik, Rajsik and Tamsik concept in all materials is a valid classification and exists also for food. And meat is classified tamsik when not consumed as part of certain rituals. As part of those rituals, it is allowed to consume meat.
    As such there is a shloka in Manusmrti:
    na maamsabhakshanam paapam
    na madyancha na maithunam |
    pravrttireshaam bhootanaam
    nivrttistu mahaaphalaah ||
    "Consumption of meat and alcohol, and indulging in sex, is not a sin. These are in the nature of all beings, but by abjuring, one can reap great benefits."
    Also in Chamakaprashnah, there is "purodhaasha cha me" where, "purodhaasha" means paratha.

    One of the reasons we call Sri Ram 'Maryada Purushottam' is because of his unmatched kindness and virtuous character. In my view, if he were a meat eater, people wouldn’t regard him with such reverence. After all, if we call him God, we believe he possesses superior qualities. It’s hard to imagine him eating the flesh of any being that he himself created.
    In Sanskrit, a single word can have multiple meanings, which is why proper knowledge is essential. Simply reading random translations or commentaries isn't enough to truly grasp the meaning of the shlokas. For example, in the shloka "मांसभूतोदनेन," the word "मांस" can imply the fresh, pulpy flesh of fruits, and "सुराघटसहस्रेण" can refer to a divine elixir or even the holy water of the Ganges. Therefore, we can't conclusively say the word "meat" is implied here based on just one source or translation.
    As followers of Sanatan Dharma, we should always seek the truth. I strongly believe that Sri Ram, Sita Mata, and Lakshman never consumed meat. I don't understand why some people are now trying to prove otherwise, but it's wrong to misinterpret such sacred texts.
    Here are some references that support my view:
    1. www.scribd.com/document/616759423/Did-Lord-Rama-Eat-Meat
    2. ruclips.net/user/shorts0UET8LXQBvw?si=6_ZvlUN7kFLXHz8J

    4. www.ramcharit.in/valmiki-ramayana-ayodhyakanda-sarga-chapter-52-slokas-with-hindi-meaning/
    It's important that we don’t blindly trust any one's interpretation. Instead, we should do our own research and read the original Valmiki Ramayana in Sanskrit with a proper Sanskrit dictionary to understand the true meaning and context of the text.

      Answer to this channel: You very deliberately go against the Veda's, All Scriptures, Dharma, and what is Sanatan!
      Ahimsa is part of everything and its said to be the biggest, largest of Dharma. Even nowadays, scientific research and findings are very clear not to eat meat of any kind.
      In Yajurveda 30-15 is clearly written:
      O God drive away a gambler, friend of the dice-king; a person with evil designs for murdering cows; a cow-killer for gallows; one who for hunger goes begging to a man who is cutting up a cow; a leader of meat eaters bent on misdeed; the son of a depraved person, befriending a sinner! O God create a wise person who soon realizes the shortcomings in the acts performed; a person who is fit in childhood, youth and old age; one endowed with capability for this world and the next; a leader of the Assembly for drying up the resources of the enemy!
      These are not the only man alike looking who are committing harsh crime against the Supreme. Killing in any Yagya or for it are forbidden, heinous and are not accepted by the Deva's. Devabhojan is fruit-plantbased and without harm its Milk and derived products are used. Douane, means only two of the four from the udders are neatly allowed to have by human as long they leave the other two for its calves. We are not allowed to take all four. So, quit misleading people that is done by those who do not belonging within the normal Varna-system which has nothing to do with western caste-system enforced upon all Indian people. You got converted and lost your roots to deviously mislead others. Nowhere in the Vedas or any scripyite such things like you say is written. We know to break us the Abrahamics has falsified text within our scriptures. Since the Veda is scientific, new research has supported these. Only the meat-industry wants to get rich and is misleading everyoneto consume what is very wrong for their body and system.

      Maryada purushottam doesn't related to maryada every being-ottam
      Whole hindu philosophy works on karma system. And according to karma system, borning as a animal is a bad fruit of your karma. So meat eating can't be against Hinduism. Also, it doesn't matter if our ancestors & even avatars ate meat or not. Because, culture & habits changes with time. Today, 24×7 meat eaters westerners too becoming vegan.
      But, as a human, we also have human dharma towards everyone. So, if you compare old meat eating (self hunting & killing animal by ourself) with current meat eating (meat coming from meat farm & shops) is different. Earlier, humans kill animal in one way to eat meat. But today, animals get extreme cruelty before getting killed because of high demand & business. So, eating meat in today's time without knowing or checking the cruelty with alive animal is adharmik.
      I myself is vegetarian but i will suggest to every non vegetarian to not forget their human dharma too. So, they should either pet animals themselves or buy meat from non cruelty farm while being alive.
      Also, I don't like vegetarian & non vegetarian terms regarding hinduism because vegetarians drink milk which isn't vegetarian by definition. So, i like to use the terms - 'less himsak' & 'more himsak'. Because nothing is 100% ahimsak even veganism too.
      Milk & unfertilized eggs - both aren't vegetarian food by definition but yes, they are less himsak food then eating meat. But regarding eggs, again, main topic should be, knowing about the cruelty or cruelty free life of hens.
