"May the wind blow upon our cows with healing; may they eat herbage ...
Like-coloured various-hued or single- coloured whose names through sacrifice are known to Agni, Whom the Angirases produced by Ferbvour - vouschsafe to these, Parjanya, great.protection. Those who have offered to the gods their bodies whose varied forms are all well known to Soma"
In the Rig Veda (RV: VIII.43.11) Agni is described as "fed on ox and cow"
NONSENSE. This is what happens when Hindus seek to understand Rig Veda from bigoted Christian translators
Rg Veda, 8-43-11 Says,
ukShaannaaya vashaannaaya somapRiShThaaya vedhase, stomairvidhemaagnaye.
Translation :
"May we contemplate on the fire god, who feeds the pingala nadi of dominance and ida nadi of
submission and virtuously carries the nectar of immortality in the sushumna nadi"
Fire is the transformative power. It is the basis of our existence. It is what fuels (feeds) every part of our being. The fire that burns in the sookshma sareera (subtle body) is called bhoota agni. This fire feeds the pingala nadi (solar channel of the subtle body) and causes analytical and logical abilities and aggressive instincts of domination and control. The same bhoota agni also feeds the ida nadi (lunar channel of the subtle body) and causes submission and calmness. In modern medical parlance, we can say the same fire feeds and runs the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems and provokes the "push" and "pull" actions of the push-pull nervous system. In addition, the same bhoota agni also drives the sushumna nadi and makes the nectar of immortality (sat-chid-ananda) flow in that channel.
suggesting that cattle were sacrificed and roasted in fire. Another hymn (RV:
X.16.7) mentions the ritual enveloping of the corpse with cow flesh before
applying the fire on it.
In the Brahmanas at 1.15 in the Aiteriya Brahmana, the kindling of Agni on the
arrival of King Some is compared to the slaughter of a bull or a barren cow on
the arrival of a human king or other dignitary
Similarly, at II.1.11.1 in the Taiteriya Brahmana and XXXI.14.5 in the
Panchavinsha Brahmana, the rishi Agastya is credited with the slaughter of a
hundred bulls.
In verse III.1.2.21 in the Satapatha Brahmana, sage Yajnavalkaya asserts that
even though the cow is the supporter of everyone, he would eat beef "if it is
luscious." At IV.5-2.1 in the same Brahmana, it is said that a barren cow can
be slaughtered in the Some sacrifice. Not only for religious purposes, but also
for other purposes one could kill a cow and eat beef. Thus at II.4.2 of the
same Brahmana, it is suggested that a fat bull or fat goat
should be sacrificed in honour of an important guest.
Similarly, the Brihadaranyaka Upanishada (VI.4.18) advises a couple to take an
evening meal of beef or veal pulao,and have bull and cow like sex if they
desire to beget a son who is learned in the Vedas.
Since rest of your posts are filled with similar nonsence I am not even going to dignify this crap with a response.
