If hindus start eating beef based on this, then price will increase 2-3 times more than today's rate....very bad....
Chaddis eating beef sukka as well.
Dear YOGESH...
Please carefully read the below verse from BG and ponder on it. Also REFLECT on y BG mentioned this here.
Bhagavad Gita 7:20
Those whose INTELLIGENCE has been stolen by MATERIAL DESIRES surrender onto Demigods (Besides TRUE GOD) and follow the particular rules and regulations of WORSHIP according to their own natures...
I think U should not worship the idols and statues instead worship the TRUE GOD who is formless (NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI). This is the TRUTH and U should follow the BG on this too...
Those who don't eat non veg. Should replace their pointed teeth to flat teeth.
Less intelligent people always want to imitate God and there activities without knowing the proper fact and reason behind the activities.
Like lord Shiva once consumed POISON. Can any ordinary human do this ,No. So we should not try to imitate God. But We should always follow the instructions given by them. God has given enough instructions through his word in BHAGAVAD Gita and other scripture. Where he instructed to offer him only four type of eatable things i.e. Leaf, Flower, Fruit and water and consume it. This is why, we should always try to follow God's instructions carefully rather than imitating his activity.
So what......and who gave you the list of God's diet......why don't you request your Hindu people to close now the restaurants which serves non veg......they will throw you in garbage....better be silent....
instead of looking at the fact and trying to know the TRUTH ,,, some cheddis are already blaming him blindly... when in fact intelligent will look for the truth.
Sita kidnapped When laxman was busy in hunting deer for their lunch. This story clearly tells about their love for meat.
Very well said. If entire hindus studies their scripture they will become non-vegetarian and stops idol worship without any delay.
