1. Beef And Hinduism Swami Vivekanand : “You will be surprised to know that according to ancient Hindu rites and rituals, a man cannot be a good Hindu who does not eat beef”. Also Manusmriti (5 / 35) states: When a man who is properly engaged in a ritual does not eat meat, after his death he will become a sacrificial animal during twenty-one rebirths. … So much for vegetarians !(The Complete Works of Swami Vivekanand, vol.3, p. 536) Regards Aneek
