Until 5,000 years ago, it was forbidden in the whole of India to kill a terrestrial and aquatic animal, and even less to eat its flesh. Throughout India the word of God mentioned above was respected and applied to the letter, because just and pure. The people did not eat meat, poison or egg.

On the other hand, it is only during the sacrifice of an immolated animal in honor of the goddess Kali in the temple dedicated to her, that the flesh of the immolated animal could be consumed by the followers present, and only on this occasion.

The Vedas, the original holy scriptures also called “the true gospel”, mention a sacrifice where one immolates a goat, a buffalo or a similar animal before the goddess Kali, in order to prevent human beings from eating meat, and thus become responsible for the killing of the animal whose flesh they are going to consume. This was the only condition where a human being was allowed to eat the flesh of an animal, only one that was slain in honor of the goddess Kali. Nowhere else and under no other circumstances was this authorized, because it was expressly prohibited.

Number of practices mentioned in the Vedic scriptures [of the Vedas, the original holy scriptures also called “the true gospel”] give rise to contradictions. It is said, for example, that one can immolate an animal during a very specific sacrifice, and that during the latter, only an experienced and competent priest should officiate, because only one capable of correctly pronouncing the holy hymns, which have the power to give new life to the sacrificed animal. This practice is now prohibited because there are no longer any experienced and competent officiating priests.

Vedic scriptures recommended, it is true, animal sacrifice, but let us know that in such sacrifices, the animal was not really killed. These sacrifices were indeed to bring him new life. Sometimes he would get another animal form, and sometimes he would immediately find himself promoted to human form.

Out of that context, killing an animal is always an abominable and forbidden act. This is why the holy scriptures grant certain concessions. In reality, the holy scriptures only aim to put an end to all these execrable activities, to prohibit the consumption of meat, fish and eggs, and clearly say that all actions must be carried out according to regulatory principles.

God condemns animal sacrifices, for by this foul practice life is taken from innocent animals.

Did the Lord not say?

What have I to do with the multitude of your sacrifices?

I am satisfied with the burnt offerings of rams and the fat of calves. I do not take pleasure in the blood of bulls, lambs and goats. When you come to present yourselves before Me, who asks you to tread on My courts?
