Does the Hindu belief allow the believers to eat beef?
Eating beef and killing cows are not new to hindusim. The actual hindu religion allows eating and killing of cow. This fact of not eating meat was started by the Brahman who saw Jains and Buddhist increasing membership. So in order to hold the cast system the Brahman cast started to enforce the no eating meat. Nothing about modern hundusim is inspired by its past rich philosophy, it is now influenced by what other religion do, like the jains in case of meat, and now days with Islam and incorporating Islamic ideology in this new age Hindutva religion.
Only a minority of Hindus do not eat meat. I’ve seen that minority vigorously advertise that people that eat beef or meat in general aren’t Hindus. I do not buy it. A lot of Hindus from where I live feast on beef. I don’t eat any kind of meat but that has never had anything to do with me being a Hindu. It’s mostly just a personal choice.
