hello. I know that we don't eat onions and garlic and stuff like that,

but when I tell that to others they ask why. I tell them the reason

why, but they ask where does it say that? I don't know where exactly it

mentions that we are not supposed to eat onions and garlic. So if

someone can please give more info on this topic it would be really

nice. thanks.

 

 

 

sincerely,

Bhagyalaxmi Murali

Dear friends,

Time and again, someone or other is raising this question on Bhakti list

and elsewhere. I would like to draw their attention to "Ahaara Niyamam"

of Swami Desikan where a long list is given of items that can be

consumed, items that cannot be consumed and items that can be consumed

with certain restrictions.

 

If any one is not able to locate, I would advise them to go through my

Chapter "Trigunas and the Dietary regimen" in my book 'Hinduism

Rediscovered" .

Dasoham
