@Swastik Auddy you meant to say vegans are superior to vegetarians
India is like the heaven for vegans and vegetarians..
For vegetarians yes..but for vegans no. There's dairy in everything...I repeat..everything sold outside. I literally have to repeat a 100 times but to fail at many of the places.
Yeah.
Ofcourse even non.vegs are vegs on Monday Tuesday thurs and sat.... Only 2 percent people in india eat meat everyday
@@religionofpeace782nope Jain food are more vegan than western vegan food... As he mentions diary product are costly here so you would find many vegan dishes
True
If you accidentally eat ghee on a street food
Don't feel bad because it was not real even if it had a picture of cow on packet
It is hydrogenated vegetable oil😅🤣
No one is going to serve you real ghee on a street
😂That's true.

Ur wrong

Proud to be Indian 🇮🇳 and Vegan also. And why I'm vegan because I'm hindu. So I'm too glad for being hindu 🕉
Being hindu means we should not kill or make suffer to animals,like we domisticate dogs we can domisticate cow and drink its milk with letting it hurt
@@shubhamsoni3875 bro a true sanatani is acharya Prashant he promote veganism
I was born a Hindu. Hinduism taught me nothing about animal welfare. I turned vegan after realizing the cruelty caused to animals in Indian society. Religion had nothing to do with that realization.
P.s. I am not saying that any other religion or atheism taught me animal welfare.

7:03 a little knowledge is a very dangerous thing.
Peta in India made an illogical analogy of a Hindu festival "Raksha Bandhan" with killing of cows. They compared to cloth made festival symbol "Rakhi" which is tied to hand to cow leather which is never used. Somehow, they forgot that Hindus pray to cows and treat them as God.
That ad was totally misunderstood. PETA was asking us to protect cows just like our sisters, as this is what Rakshabandhan stands for. They never ever said that rakhis are made of leather.
@@prakhar_katiyar then they should be specific.
@@godknowswho1430 They simply wrote, This Rakshabandhan protect cows and denounce leather. Leather is not in Rakhis but many people do use leather products. Why not use faux leather?
@@prakhar_katiyar if Peta can't communicate properly, they'll have to deal with the backlash. They're the same ones who are silent when goats are mass-murdered during Eid. Spineless organisation.
@@untamedVagabond true
Dude, I'm an Indian Vegan and this video was spot on and to the point. You're a really articulate speaker, and I'm grateful that you chose to go to India and raise awareness. I'm Catholic from Goa (primarily Catholic), and I've had the same irrational arguments and sentiments regarding "Jesus multiplied fish, made animals to be eaten, and ate animals himself...".
I use these often:
"Do you believe Jesus is the most compassionate being in the universe?" "If that is the case, how can it be that I feel more compassion than God towards the animals? Surely God feels more compassion than I do, or if you're right, you believe in a God who has less compassion and mercy than vegans / vegetarians do."
"Why do you fast / abstain from meat for Lent? Does it please God? Why please God for only a month?"
"Are you against animal cruelty? Then why are you so determined to find loopholes?"
Questions like this invites them to investigate their own contradictions. I try to ask questions and watch them unpack their deeply rooted notions. From my experience Indians have already had the best of Vegan / Vegetarian food, and are no stranger to the delicacies, textures, and flavors; but will still favor meat purely for taste. There's some sort of passive polarization regarding veg, vs non-veg too. Most times even though I manage to tell and show friends and family all the horrors of the industry, it still doesn't register as enough of a reason to give up meat. I can only hope that with social media, as we all have access to the same information, that veganism and it's message becomes more widely recognized.
I must say that the ancient Hindi vegetarian lifestyle, was far closer to the Vegan lifestyle. Eggs that were consumed were unfertilized ovaries basically. They weren't selectively bread or artificially modified, and were well cared for. The cows were seen has part of the family, and were shown great love and respect. And the calf would not be deprived of it's milk, but after the calf has fed, the extra is milked, and that is turned to butter, ghee, butter milk and so on. But today with Amul, and factory farming taking over those old respectful practices have become rather extinct.
you have written essay bro
in abrahamic religions its not allowed to question god but in hinduism its about questioning god..in bhagwad gita arjuna questioned god on every corner and god gave him answers everytime and even helped him to win the mahabharata war ,
@@starscream1457Let me tell you something about our Hindu culture. In the Ancient Era, the population in India was growing rapidly despite the frequent widespread diseases. In order to feed the millions of people our ancestors stopped eating beef and used the milk produced by them to satiate the hunger of the rising population. In this sense, Cows are actually our God. We don't eat beef out of respect to the cows. Same goes for buffaloes. Milk has the same nutritional value of meat.
i appreciate actually many bible stories portray animal suffering as a way to please god , although i ationm not arguing about that i actually have a question i dont understand why christians specially Americans cant think of food without meat i have never seen any church teaching such its just weird
@@mannyzz3623 But does milk has Same Quality as Meat. No right?
As an Indian vegan my first activism started in Japan. They are very passionate for activism and coming out of their conservative and risk-aversion mindset. They also have an ancient Buddhist vegan diet called "shojin ryori" which has been forgotten by many people and was replaced by beef, pork, coffee drinking habit and other dairy and bakery products when Japan got too much influenced by the west like any other Asian country. One German man also said that he sees more bakeries and sweet stuff in Japan then anywhere else in Europe.
But europe is not continent it is different lands located in western eurasia
Thank goodness vegetable ghee is a thing now
Most Veg ghee is made for palm oil.
India apparently is highly unsafe for vegans. Had a vegan friend went and left off fruit. She could only eat a 5 star hotel who could only cater for her. Stay far from religious places that serve food. They love using ghee and buffalo milk
@@dod1721 My friend had a difficult time. All the meals had butter and ghee. They refused to even cater for her at certain places.
@@dod1721 whaaat ?? Can you please name some? 🥺🥺
@@dod1721 they dont know what vegan was for her. her bad experience on the way she was treated will never take her to india again
Vegan in India mainly in South it is very easy but ppl don't want they think that cows r for that..I tried to understand by showing viedos etc but...
I'm vegan from 5monthsssss...
I can say ur one of my inspiration
Yes..south Indians have everything non-veg ,even Hindus eat beef 😒
@@ami2000vi true and its pathetic ,having Hindu heritage i cant think of hurting any animals specially cows they are like family member to us.
South is more meat consuming than the north
I like the face that they care so much about the animals ❤️
In Indian villages people grow with cows...they see the cow as a family...prior to commercialization of cow..it was treated as a family...go to villages u can see people weep if the the cow got diseased...
Now, it's just business
I grown up in village and around cows...and I know what happens to them..for their whole life they are tied with a small rope, impregnated(raped) every year, beaten up if misbehaves..seperates from their calfs..
Both mother cow and baby moans for each other..male calf are abandoned to die on road in such a young age after stamping trishul mark with hot iron...you can't imagine the pain those babies went through....and female calf is kept starved..no matter how harsh the weather is, they are kept outside, under sun, rain or cold...and when the cow no longer produces more milk, they sell them to butcher or abandoned them to die on road...cows are kept because of their milk or for the sake of religion..they are never treated the way we treat our pet...their life is more horrible then jews life under hitler's rule..
.Plus people don't weep because their cows get disease..they weep because they have to spend money on their treatment..once my uncle called my mother..he was weeping because his cow died and he had to spend 30,000 to buy new cow...
@@anjalishukla-vegan4205 butter chicken tastes good tho

@@anjalishukla-vegan4205 you gotta try once also try lamb biriyani its too good and lemme tell you im as committed as you are but in being non-vegetarian
We have cows at home but we don't breed cows the way . We use dairy but don't involve any kind of violence. Once cow gets old it is treated like elder family members who is served food , care etc till death. Krishna loves cows and dairy but it was pain free life for cows at that time.....so not wrong to consume dairy products .it's wrong to consume that dairy product that is obtained after inflicting pain on vow
What about the bulls? What do you do with the male offspring?
@@SikhiArt In my city most of the cows we see on the roads are bulls. They are free to roam around wherever they want and nobody disturbs them. I do know that a lot of bulls from india are shipped as beef for slaughter but many are also treated gently and respectfully.
Na, na there are video ads on UA-cam. Asking for donations for cows that are left on roads in India after they stop producing milk... Or you can see cows by yourself on the streets!
If that's the case then its fine. But there are farmers who give harmones to cows just to extract more milk. And that is bad for both cow and us (especially women). It's one of the main reasons for pcos issues in women now a days.
That's how it should be but sadly when dairy becomes an industry people only want profit so if cows stop giving milk they leave them on streets.
I discovered your channel just 2 days ago and I find that you not only stayed in my country for 12 months, but you visited Surat too, where I live! I'm slowly realising the dark side of the dairy industry and as a Jain, I'm shocked and dismayed by the amount of cruelty I'm inflicting on cows by consuming dairy. Thank you for doing what you do!
Its okay. Most of us realize this once we open our eyes to dairy. Go Vegan and change the narrative for your community like I will be doing for mine after being a Bengali and a hardcore non vegetarians since birth. Its been 2 years since I'm off meat and 1 year after I quit dairy. Future is Vegan. 🌱
@@pijjagal Yes, starting with family and friends. It's real struggle though 😓
@@palakjain1099 at first it will be a struggle not gonna deny that because it's a massive lifestyle change. But slowly you'll get the hang of it. From my experience if you honestly tell about your reason for going vegan everybody listens even the hardcore naysayers. Your family and friends will support you eventually. Also eating out will be a challenge but hey! The world is adjusting to veganism and there has been a substantial rise in Vegan restaurants and Brands in the recent years. And most importantly whole plant foods are a powerhouse of nutrients, so you're not actually missing out on anything if you eat home cooked stuff.
P.s. You're a Jain so you're already well adjusted to eating at home as I have heard other Jains due to onion and garlic etc. So a year from now it will stop being a struggle. All the best for your journey. Do join a vegan group or community to have people to talk to. Best wishes. 👍
I consume milk curd ghee all
But I have own cow
The only challenge I find as a new Indian Vegan is that almost every products use Milk solids 🤦🏻♀️ otherwise it's pretty easy 😁
Same here even in some chips like in cream and onion flavour
And finding plant based milk is hard but making at home is very easy as you can get peanuts , almonds , oats , cashews anytime anywhere
@@vinnyhorapeti2461 yes 😭😭😭 I was sucha biscuit addict .. I can't find any biscuit brand that doesn't use milk solids or cheese 😭😭
@@kaleidoscopicboo there are lots of plant based biscuits but it's not available everywhere you can only find it online or large supermarkets that is the sad part
Yes brother I completely agree with you, very less products available which doesn't have diary
Did you know that 38% of India's population is vegetarian so western countries(where majority had beef or pork as dinner) should be the last one to propagate about animal rights for India
But we should be ashamed that our country isn't even 50% vegetarian. I am a Rajput and I recently turned vegetarian.
Well costal areas will always eat fish most non veg only eat few days a week
Hi! My name is India and I'm vegan. I’ve written an animal rights song called Time to Change. It would be amazing if you could give it a listen! 🐄🐖🐓🌍💕🎶 ua-cam.com/video/rry1QyII9iY/v-deo.html
38% because of pro-west psedo literates, Indians from south, Vegetarian is predominant in west and north india
Being vegetarian doesn't mean you're pro animal rights. You're still putting them through a lot of torture.
Its hard to remove milk from indian diet however rest can get u huge activism
But why remove it. We take milk from villages where no cattle is harmed while milking. Also strict laws are there for cattle salughter in india. So why remove dairy
Nope
Cow milk is important
i have cow of my own why will we remove milk its our integral part of life
@@user-jc1km1qv1mPlease understand that India is the leading exporter of beef in the world because of the diary industry
. The cows are artificially made pregnant repeatedly, old cows and male calves are sent to slaughter house. Please watch maa ka doodh in UA-cam
I'm from Alleppey, Kerala. From a beef Eater now I am fully vegetarian. I have reduced my tummy by 60%. Also, I prefer taking a bus or train though I have a Mahindra Thar, Honda Activa and CBZ.
I also do not use shower and use a bucket and mug. I wash 50% clothes myself. I also clean the floors.
Without a Gym I reduced my weight from 94 kgs to 77 kgs in 6 months.
In the month of December, Jan and Mid February I do not use a fan.
Food is 50% of any health program.
I just made myself busy and hence the thought of food barely came.
Thanks for this inspiring video David!! As for Altab, he is a true braveheart...and wishes for him always🙌. The main problem is the desensitization of Indians when they see animal culling in the markets from a younger age that too, I remember being taken to a fish market at age 4. That is like stubborn fat..its so deep set, that its hard to make it go. But yes, the right way - through videographics, animal activism, and pictures does awaken people...and finally melt them down to realise their childlike core. Cause all of us humans are animal-lovers at the core. 🙌 I believe so👍🙌 Thank you for this once again
@a s I've been born in Kolkata and living here since childhood. Surprisingly Kolkata has plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Please do something... When you go to any restaurant ask them to offer anything in the vegetarian menu without milk/butter/ghee. They will make the dish and customise it to your liking. As for street foods in kolkata, the options are many - chole kulcha, pao bhaji, samosa, papri chat, bhel puri, phuchka, dosa, uttapam, idli, medu vada, kachori, dhokla, etc, beguni, alu chop, vegetable chop etc. All these are pure veg (most of the time). Ask the shopkeeper for details about the ingredients they have put.
If you would want more help with detecting vegan shops near you, kindly install the "abillion veg" App from playstore. There I and several Kolkata vegans post updates on vegan eateries and restaurants or products available in Kolkata (or other cities and states across the world).
@a s Also the restaurant @Guptas veg and Jain eateries offer pure veg options. But ask them to cut put the milk options for you. That way it becomes vegan and they do it without costing nay extra charge.
@a s try Guptas veg in Swiggy. They serve only pure vegetarian items. Also try Haldirams in Swiggy. Both are pure veg outlets that do not make non veg food items
@a s yes yes. If you need any help regarding vegetarian or vegan options just ask away. Hope it'll come handy. 👍👍
Namaste 🙏 I really appreciate efforts. I'm a vegan by birth & am at 25 doing great 🔥
so your pure vegetarian right .i think there is difference between vegan and vegetarian
@@jaicesjoseph1738 ya, just a minor difference , I consume milk & dairy products & not any sort of dead animals.🙏

I have been a vegetarian all my life , and a vegan for about an year now, and it's been quite a smooth ride with a lot of variety of vegan food available in India, from pulses to vegetables to fruits.
Have u been to south India brother? if not please come.
Eating vegan in India is really budget-friendly for locals too! I made 9 vegan meals with a 5(ish) USD/300 INR budget on my channel. I want Indians to know that it is not an expensive affair to go vegan.
Promotion😂😂😂
We already know that since there are thousands of vegan dishes in India. Many states use coconut milk in place of cows milk. Thank you
You people are amazing instead you became vegetarian you became vegan it's really hard thing for non-vegetarian 🙏, I am also vegetarian but vegan is really a hard thing but atleast vegetarians didn't consume animal for their one time food but we are indirectly consuming them🙏
What's harder should be deprive an animal of their life, dignity, and freedom.
We are Vegans....We all are connected with the thread of Compassion & Love for our Earth and all Earthlings.
that save movement tried to screw you, so respect for rising above david
Vegan from kerala, India.
Awesome!
A rare commodity in kerala... Even vegerarians are rare
Hey , so I get the slaughter house realities and milking process but it's hard to make people understand becoz of religious aspect. And that existed becoz people used to worship cows and their milk was considered as boon but without taking the calves portion of milk... humans dairy needs and cow's heath co existed that time. You might try to explain that calves were getting their due during the times of Lord krishna but now they aren't and those cows were given the finest food and now they survive on drugs and injections .
Interesting point of view thank you
Hey are you kidding in my village we satisfy how much milk we get and we will ALWAYS worship Cows
@@con380 what is done to bulls ...probably sold to the slaughterhouse. There is cruelty involved in Diary Industry as well.
@@kaushalgogula2138 we don't make them pregnant after 9-10 months of giving birth the cows start shows symptoms (that they want sex) like doing same sound(and other stuff which can't explain u) and second thing after the arrival of Yogi ji in uttar pradesh any kind of cow/bull slaughter is completely ban if u want to see the photos of cows and bulls in my village i can show u, u can observe many bulls are roaming here and there no one is slaughtering them now
@@kaushalgogula2138 what type of logic is this that we are stealing milk from calves are we not feeding them (calves) just after the birth first 15-30 days milk isn't used for any kind of households purpose because it's not good for all these days their calves drinks her milk afterwards when calve starts to eat other grass we start to take milk from them and i dont think that there is any cruelty in that and what about u who killing mosquitos occupied the land by destroying floura and founa and using paper by cutting lakhs of tree don't u seen any cruelty in that in this video he shows how cruel indians that they drink milk but he always forget to tell that millions of tree are cutted down for only the sake of christmas i can bet christmas is more harmful then any dairy product
Just wondering what you were doing in India originally?
Cow Milk is essential. We don't need chemical based soymilk. Of course the methods to get cowmilk should be improved .
Right....like when dairy became an industry and people saw it in terms of profit, it became violent to cows. But before all the industrialisation every house had a cow who they took very good care of until it's natural death.
How do you think cows get pregnant? They are artificially impregnated or a bull is forced to mate and as soon as the cow stops giving milk it is impregnated again . What do you think milkmen do after cows stop giving milk ? They are either left on roads or they sell them to a slaughter house . So don't act like a frog in the well
Who said cow milk is essential?? It's not essential. You can easily find the nutrients of cow milk in other milks . For example calcium can be easily found in many leafy vegetables.
Nowadays even milk isn't healthy . Even milk is processed . Milkmen inject artificial chemicals in cows to increase the production . Cows are sent to slaughter house after they stop giving milk so it is better to drink soy milk , almond milk or cashew milk rather than promoting animal cruelty
Bt diary industry is cruel, India is the leading exporter of beef because of the diary industry

Interesting. Am still looking forward to travel to India but so far in regards to the indian food I like and ate in my life I can not confirm what you stated in regards to Ghee and that it's almost in every dish. Daal, Chana Masala, Alu Shole, vegetable curries Samosas etc. have pretty much always been vegan by nature as they mostly have been cooked simply with veg oil. A lot of indian and pakistani people actually told me that this is how they're naturally prepared and that Ghee would be expensive to add.
I use 'I am extreeemely allergic to dairy' card!! It works better than 'I am vegan' with local ppl.
Yes! It indeed is super easy to be vegan here, if we work out with the resturants and convince them avoid the dairy part.
You were very approachable and understanding to all of us and we Indian vegans have always felt comfortable with you.
Idly, dosa, wada, bonda, vada pav, samosa, pani puri, chat all those items just made my mouth water 😂

I get you man, but India is the 2nd largest exporter of beef, just behind Brazil and above Australia.
It doesn't have a lot of Vegan alternatives for milk, which is consumed more that meat. India is in the top 3 consumers of milk in the world (not by capita).

Bro...in west India...60 % of all our dishes are vegan all by accident....can you believe that.
India has some of the world's oldest and original ethical vegetarians. Ahimasa is deeply embedded in Indian culture. Jains drink Milk, and honey. However in many respect they are stricter than Western vegans as they are careful not accidentally kill even insects. Milk Production in India was not up until recent times the industrial dairy system in the west, with baby calves snatched away and turned into veal, or Dairy cows turned to Ground beef when they can no longer produce (This is forbidden, you are suppossed to either take care of the cow when they have stopped producing or let it roam free, not kill it). Now Meat eating is increasing in India thanks to Western Influence. Instead of emulating the positives of Indian culture Indians think everything Western= Progressive and Positive.
You're amazing, David, keep up the good work.
Even i’m a jain and tuned vegan like a year ago
I pray one day the whole world becomes vegan animals don’t deserve to die..
We hope so
David, you're awesome mate
i dont know what video the teens saw , but India being a agricultural country dairy farming is important and growing up in village , i have never seen any cow get harmed as we respect them for giving food and we take care of them with love, so being in india im okay with dairy products.
Yeah but in the big industries like amul and many other these things happen, like when you buy packed milk ghee or butter or cheese, they have seperate farms for cows
Yes..if I'll go to some other country I might turn vegan. But in India dairy is not as same as other countries. A lot of people buy milk from local dairies/ milkman. They don't treat those animals like they do in the west.
@@pratibhachaudhary9016 same here if I move to usa or some different country I'm turning fully plant based
This channel is a communist propaganda

a vegan subscriber of you from india , and yes , they friggin put ghee,malai in everything . In a family function i went i only found one dish withouth dairy lol(except snacks)
Pav Bhaji without butter and Misal Pav are two good vegan options in Mumbai. Pretty cheap as well.
David your videos are always treasure to watch!! You are legend!
I want to ask a question what about buffalo's milk you know in rural India people mostly drink buffalo's milk is this allowed in vegan?
No milk at all. Only plant based milk like almond, coconut and soy can be called vegan
Keep up the good work !
Sorry to tell you that, In idili we use curd which is also made from Milk.
No we don't use curd in idli
Try south Indian cuisine ..it has a lot less dairy and a lot more coconut. It is true that the average restaurant owner won't understand the difference between vegan and vegetarianism.
U should know that not all ghee is milk based.... In India many vegan households and restaurants use a ghee called vanaspati ghee (or dalda).... Vanaspati ghee is not milk based it is made from hydrogenated vegetable oils like palm oil and groundnut oil.
So we should eat dalda instead of ghee and it is supposed to be good for health 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for the video. Vegan food is soooo expensive in Europe. Why? While meat products are so cheap, so sad.
If people just stopped eating meat they would notice they will almost never get ill. But with the current prices for vegan food i can imagine not everyone can afford it.
Amazing energy. Keep it up!
Indian food is amazing!
In my opinion, when you stop eating meat products you establish connection with animals.
P. S. Watch out, in India some dont eat cow meat but eat buffalo meat ;-)
I tell u truth of life. The place where u live is naturally a non vegetarians place beacause u have less fields to grow plants, or climatic conditions are not suitable, or soil is not suitable. So u people depended om meat. So there should be no regret as its your compultion to eat meat.
He was focused more onto his own imaginary religious concepts about Hinduism rather than the actual topic itself.
Hindus already are peaceful about animals since they r born. Why dont vegans try to teach muslims on eid. Are u fearful of getting murdered like charlie hebdo??, 😂😂

Very good. Im so proud of India...
Omg you are vegan??? Immediately subscribed
david, ive watched videos of people been hacked at and losing there life having all there limbs chopped off off and been beheaded, ive seen it all and its sickening but i think all humans should watch to gain preference and understanding
What the hell. No that is not a normal thing to see and get used to. Gore is only non damaging when you watch it with no feeling of connection like movies. But real videos of humans will automatically make you empathise with the victim and it'll have a lasting damaging effect on you. I have been exposed to it and I really wish that I wasn't.
Love & Respect from INDiA🇮🇳 bro,
Keep spreading VEGANISM 👍
Would love to know your opinion on Bakr-Eid
Arvind is the person who made me as vegan(I was vegetarian since birth because of cultural reasons )
Vegan meat options is also available in india
Chaap ( made of soya bean)
Keep going brother...
see you again david and anni
hey just a question do vegans hate people eating meat
Exquisite job man....... Everyone should vegan....I have been vegan for an year.
awesome video!
South India has a great vegan food. We make loads of sweets with coconut milk. N you can usually tell people to not put ghee. They might just assume u have a risk for heart disease 😂😂😂 n here we don’t put cream to curries but we do put coconut milk to thicken it. The thing is while South Indians has more meat eaters, most of them refrain from it for 2-3 days a week for religious reasons and hence meat-eaters also cook delicious vegetarian food.
Yes! I proud my india. I proud of me. Beacuse i am pure vegetarian.We all are kinds of any animal.
We all dont eat any animals, we not eat egg. We eat mostly wheat,bajra,rice ,chapati, fruits
But diary industry is cruel. India is the leading exporter of beef in the world because of the diary industry
What is the meaning of Bhai?
Brother
Liked, commented, shared 🙏
1:15. दुग्धालय ( Dughdhaalay ) is not the correct translation of dairy in that context
You should get in touch with Dina Aherne at spiritually vegan regarding the religious significance of dairy... and how it is misconstrued... ghee and sesame oil is the same word in Sanskrit...
We use sesame oil instead of ghee in our lamps to Lord Krishna... and offer water instead of milk...
Also Gauri Das the managing director of ISKCON Bhaktivedanta Manor is a vegan... he says if you want to drink milk, you must kill the calf
Good luck 🙏🙏🙏
Oh is the entire Iskon vegan then? I didn't know..
I'm vegan and I love Indian cuisine, even mithai.
Targeting only Hindu festivals is pretty Hindu phobic. You want to be vegan, that's fantastic, but it is not an indian concept. Iam not denying the treatment of animals in the milking industries. Hindus, Jain's, Buddhists, Sikhs drink milk, that is why I never considered myself as a complete vegan. I have been called rap*st for consuming milk products. Peta is the mountain of hypocrisy, giving awards to meat eating shilpa shetty and then posting condemning hindu festivals because that disturbs animal for one day. This is funny some people bash Hindus for not accepting people of different diets and people like you bash us for letting Butcher shops open.
agreed ,these vegan crapbags just want to spread their propogabda against hinduism but wont say a single word on how many animals are slaughtered on musslim festivals like bakrii eid which is all abt killingg goat rutthessly and eating it
agree but i think he just saw news he doesnt know the deep reason behind the backlash on those ads
Ghee is expensive so i dont think restaurant will use it...
To be frank it could be easier to spread veganism in India compared to elsewhere... because the differences to be made in most Indian diet is not as drastic as a normal Westerner would have to go through 🤔
Actually, In India every family in villages used to have 2-3 cows, and they were treated like family members. So that time Vegetarian diet was okay, but now due to factory farming of Cows & buffalos. It is not okay. Even now many villages have same concept. They don't forcefully impregnate diary animals. It is for there own consumption.
There are so many farmers who artificially make cows pregnant forcefully and sell old cows and male calves. It's business and the goal is profit
every rural house in india has 3 4 cows or buffaloes they take them out for bath bring remains of crops to them. change their places 2 3 times a day they are part of a culture.
You should visit delhi there is a sikh man store who really sells vegan meats. Which could easily become alternative of non veg
Vegan meat?? Lol.
Love that muslim brother❤️
So happy to have you,bro.Vegan forever!
A lot of options for vegans here.. Welcome to INDIA.. 😘
This country is heaven for plant based people 😻😍🫒
Welcome to india
It is not
I just Looove Bharat (India).🙏🕉💕
India is place of Diversity and Unity. Jains don't even eat Onion and Garlic but they have some of tasiest dishes in the country. We always welcome people with diffrent diet background. Belive me or not me and my frineds goes to pub and diners where some of the our friends are completely vegeterian, others orders Chicken and some others order food like Sushi, Octopus and Squids but we all seat together enjoying our meals without touching someone else's food and that way we don't feel different we feel very close. I think that's the beauty of our nation where unity matters the most. And please not divide everything on Hindus and Muslims. I am a Hindu from Bengal and in our culture many of our rituals consict of eating fish and meat. So The land of India is Full of Diversity where every 50km the Food, Culture, Language and Weather changes. We embrace our differences and love our unity. So Come to India and enjoy the Diversity that you have never seen before. ❤❤
PROUD VEGAN ,I AM A 15 YR GIRL BEEN VEGAN FPR OVER 8 MONTHS 0 REGRETS❤
Milk, in ancient India was milked from cow & other animals using a very friendly & respectful method. In ancient India, instead of dogs, cow was every family's pet. So milk production was never a problem which made milk and milk products very common & essential part of diet in ancient India. Just as a mother feeds children her milk, cows feeded the whole society and thats the reason cow was given the stature & respect of a mother in our culture, which foolish Westerners & Islamists joke about. Ancient India was a very honourable, highly civilised, and respectful of each and every being including grass, plants & trees.Thus milk consumption during that age was not torture & not cruel as it was milked with respect & motherly love.
But in modern world, milk production has been commercialized and western methods of milk extraction has been mass brainwashed as the correct way and the same ideas has been propagated & taught to modern commercialized India which makes milking a cruel and inhuman business.
Thats why what was highly honourable , respectful with motherly love & blessings has become a cruel, torturous curse now.... Drinking milk produced in modern Dairy factory is nothing but promoting rape, cruelty and torture of cows and other beings.
I wish everybody in the world should be vegetarian so it vl be a very beautiful world to live ❤❤🙏🏻
I don't have much idea about vegan😅. But I am vegetarian, and for a vegetarian, india is heaven. you should come and try Indian food 😊😊
