Meet Eating is not new to India.
Vegetarianism is new.
Budhdha ate meat -Please read 'Ragula Sangiruthiyayan's transalation of 6th Cenury BC novel - (the original stone-form of this book is available in the Poona Museum).
Brahmins ate meat - after offering the same to the Lord.
Please know about Asuvamedha Yagam - The Yagam meant for Horse Meat Offering to God and sharing the same with fellow Brahmins.
Aryans ate meat.
Of course all these people were not eating chicken and mutton those days. Chicken became a regular meat only after breeding them in Scientific method after 1950's.
Lambs were rare.
These people were eating animals which were available abundant - the beef. On special occasions they ate forest animals.
Beef eating was stopped after Cow has become a form of God/Goddess - Around 5th Century of the Christian Era.
Vegetarianism is Good. Non-vegetarianism is equally good. Balanced food is essentially the form of healthy diet.

Can Punnahai enlighten me as to why Parayar means something low. I challenge him and all similar thinking netizens to quote from the Scriptures to prove that we are low caste by birth. Please name the deity who made such a decree, the context and the reason why we are to be treated as lowly. Sambavar is a name which we have adopted because over the years, the term Parayar has acquired a derogatory meaning.Ignoramuses who think Parayars are to be mocked at should save their sarcasm. Read about the history of the Sambavars. If you find the truth unpalatable, that is entirely your problem. Please don't bother to inform the Forum about it. Thanks.

Who is this Punnahai? All that Mr Sam was requesting was that Dalits should be referred to by their dignified names and not their early derogatory ones. Is it a crime to make such a request? Why is Punnahai trying to abuse Dalits? And what is this concern for historical names? Is Punnahai a historical name? Was his father's name historical? Yesterday it was Madras. Today it is Chennai. Those who still refer to Chennai as Madras will be regarded as stupid idiots is it not? Four castes /tribes i.e. Sambavars, D.K.Vellalars, Nadars and Idaiyars stayed outside the main village in their own cheris. Why is this Punnahai harping about kudis. Does he know what the main village, where those other than the above four castes stayed, was called. It was called "Thevadaya Kudi" Now, how is that for history for our history professor Punnahai.

Krishna,
"Although Buddha is not against meat eating but he still practised vegetarianism.."
Not necessarily. One version of the Buddha's death claims that he was poisoned from pork, thus demonstrating he was no vegetarian. However, another version claims he was poisoned by a mushroom.

Do you even know Tamil, Kudi means a group of people and Purananuru is singing their praises.
I think at this point, I should stop my communication with you, you are not worth it!

Dear Punnahai,
I thought you were trying to demean Sambavars. But your stand in other threads reveals that you are a broad minded knowledgeable chap. I am not ashamed to say that I was wrong in judging you. Happy Deepawali to you.

Dear Sam,
Not to worry, it's alright, we all make mistakes. I wouldn't even call yours a mistake given the caste hatred that one comes across on the Internet.
Happy Deepavali to you too and may all your wishes come true this year.
