On reading Hindu texts such as the Geeta, Mahabarat, and Ramayan I have
not seen anything against eating meat. In fact I saw ony one against
eating beef. On the contrary, the latter 2 refer to several instances of
famous characters eating meat.
Does anyone disagree with my interpretation above ? Also, does anyone
know where this idea of not eating meat came from ?
Regards.
