Jainas are not necessarily vegans.
Although the nation of India checks out for vegetarianism. One wonders what that collective moment of culture was that a whole group of people decided that meat eating was not going to be a part of their lifestyle.
- lazyninja987 6y agoThe usual reason behind being vegeterianism in india is mostly spiritual or family tradition. Giving up Tamas food (meat, garlic, onion etc.,) is the first set of rules to follow on a spiritual journey. once a family starts on this path, the behavior permeates to next generation automatically. even though my family allowed me to eat meat, i started & stopped within a year because of ethical reasons (and not spiritual reasons).
