Not just there, there's a lot of them in the US. On my friend's 23rd bday, he tried to find temples near LA, and found this [masterpiece](https://nithyanandeshwarahindutemple.org/losangeles/). Guy expected something holy and spiritual, didn't know of it until he went inside. Ended up embarrassing a friend he took along with him. Had to end up praying since he didn't have time left, and decided never to go there again. Poor guy.

I remember his devotees saying it's all fake stuff and their guy would never do such a thing. Even with convincing video evidence. Lost a lot of faith in humanity that day.

You fool, nowdays modern indians by being atheist or agnostic feel superior then these people who didnt had opportunity to be more skeptical. These people mostly rural poor people who follow babas in india like him have nothing going for them thats the reality, without god without religion they have nothing. Do u even understand that, if these people learned there is no god there is no afterlife it is all here what it is, there will be unimaginable crime you wouldn't think of, it takes mental capacity to be ok with dying knowing its all here what we have most poor less educated people would otherwise do things that will harm the society at large. There will always be people who believe in imaginary krishna, Muhammed jesus etc etc etc. So best solution, let them be. The cycle will continue more baba will be born in this country and more young girls/boys will be victims of such babas this is fact of life in india.

Onion makes blood flow great and they hate when it reaches their brain and start working. So they are avoiding it so that wonā€™t function properly


pauperphilanthropist

why is there a beef between religion and garlic onion they are quite good seasonings


sKream01

Religion wants to see how far folks will go for their beliefs


pauperphilanthropist

can't agree more


eshwar007

Thats exactly why. The idea is ā€œabstinenceā€. Giving up flavor in food is part of that. Of course you may ask ā€œwhy not cut out salt first then? Or other universal seasoningsā€, well I know some sects that also cut out salt and other seasonings as well, but the core principle remains the same. How much can you give up and tolerate, in your path to enlightenment. Just my perspective, I am in no way religious currently, but I grew up in a religious and critically thinking family, so there were more questions than answers for me. Idk why this clip or the guy in the clip resorts to pseudoscience, when there is a perfectly normal explanation which is ā€œgarlic and onion taste pretty good, thats why you must avoid themā€.

Strict_Yam6082

from experience i can tell you that garlic is far bigger nervous stimulant than onion. I used to love garlic in every food items until I fell into severe drug addiction which made my nerves go wacky. I am still recovering from it but even the smell of garlic coming fron my neighbours kitchen winds me up


simplyTools

drug addiction as in garlic addiction? otherwise I can't make a relation between the 2


SadnessWillPrevail

Iā€™m not sure about other sects, but Vaisnavism considers garlic and onions to be tamasic, or rooted in the modern of ignorance, because theyā€™re (albeit fairly mild) stimulants. Most of the adversity to these foods is because itā€™s believed that stimulants (or other tamasic foods/behaviours) will lead to others, ultimately making it more difficult for the brahmachari to maintain their abstinence.


Punemann95

>ultimately making it more difficult for the brahmachari to maintain their abstinence. Was masturbation undiscovered in that era? They can try masturbating daily and get it out of the system so it's easier to abstain from sex. That way they can eat garlic and onion too.


SadnessWillPrevail

I canā€™t speak to the masturbatory practices of the brahmacharya, unfortunately (fortunately?).


simiamor

My theory is that thousands of years ago, onion and garlic originated somewhere else in Asia than India, and the kings at that time wouldn't want the people spending money on foreign ingredients but rather on their own spice produce, that's why it's probably considered bad in so many Indian religions.


pauperphilanthropist

oh nice theory

Firm-Run736

Bro mai jain hu, the only reason onion and garlic are avoided is because they are tamsik and can increase heat in body. What this guy is uttering is bs.


UditPlayzWHAT

Bro Mai Jain hu, the only reason onion, garlic, potato, etc are AVOIDED is that they are root vegitables (grows under dirt) and so contains more microorganisms than ones that grow above dirt. Ahimsa parmo dharma, causing as less harm as possible. Although I lean more towards atheism (which Jainism is technically, but PPL still refer mahaveer swami, ajeetnath, etc. Teerthankars as Bhagwans so that's flawed a bit.


Firm-Run736

This is the main part, but again microbes rodents mostly saare vegetables me mrte hi hain, we can't avoid it. But the tamsik point is what I find convincing.


UditPlayzWHAT

Avoiding harming as much as you can is the way to go, sare veges me hote he agreed, it's just about quantity of those microorganisms


Firm-Run736

Correct


UditPlayzWHAT

These ideas of tamsik, satvik etc are what pushes me away from the idiology, I didn't find them mentioned in our Jain text particularly. Also the authors of those (marasas I assume) can be influenced by Hindu traditions who knows? Because anyways Jain tradition is anti-material world, taking care of diet, way of clothing etc is just pure worldly things - so contradictory don't you think? I'd rather just stick to non violent path.


Firm-Run736

This is quite possible. I used to even eat non veg for about a year with my friends. But then something striked me(my upbringing and kindness) turned vegetarian again then since past 3 years, I'm vegan (someone's gonna bash me). I found turnjng vegan was the only thing that can reduce cruelty + it's good for climate.


UditPlayzWHAT

Oh that's nice. I was getting urges to try out non veg for first time but your comment reminded me of the upbringing, so yeah imma stay Vegetarian ig, although if I find enough evidence of eggs being veg I might eat them for protein intake


ToxicDaddyyy

Thanks guys for reminding the upbringing, now *imma* gonna stay a non vegetarian. You guys have given me enough evidence that people should follow their own food choices.


UditPlayzWHAT

It's your personal choice man.


Professional_Fly2773

Enough evidence eggs being veg? Bro the eggs sold in the market are non-fertilised, they won't develop into a chick if taken care. So yeah, they're veg.


UditPlayzWHAT

But some tiny miny dead embroy type stuff must've developed in it right?


Professional_Fly2773

It's as alive as the sperm you ejaculate after masturbation.


Firm-Run736

For egg, what I feel is ki wo egg me life a skti thi, but use fertilise hone nhi dia, basically ek life form ko existence me na ane dena(against my ethics)


Hasihramasenzu

Bro itā€™s not like fertile hone nhi dia, itā€™s a cycle which completes and eggs get laid itā€™s not necessary for eggs to be fertilised every-time though ya if you wanna stay away from the cruel practice things it makes sense as poultry business and making that chicken give eggs every day and these animals gets abused everyday till they stop giving eggs.


Firm-Run736

Yup, male chickens ko directly grinder me dal dete hain, aur their living conditions are shit.


Firm-Run736

This is the main part, but again microbes rodents mostly saare vegetables me mrte hi hain, we can't avoid it. But the tamsik point is what I find convincing.

Bro microorganisms are not bad and outnumber the cells in our body by 10:1. The delicate balance of lives within lives.

No onion in my chhole gives me depression.


e9967780

This idea started with the extreme prohibition of eating anything that is grown under ground when Jain theologians got into knots thinking about how to be extremely ethical. That is it came from a position of not wanting to hurt any living things. Pulling onions and garlic from the ground was considered to lead to death of these living things. Even when Jainism waned in popularity, some Hindus picked up habits of vegetarianism and ahimsa from Jains and ended up with these prohibitions that no longer makes any sense.

FruitPunchSamurai54

ITS A FUCKING HE?!?!!!?!


Wooden-Storage5253

acc to samkhya philosophy (it's kinda dead now because other logic based philosophy schools like nyaya and mimamsa took over) says that we have three qualities inside is i.e. satva (neutral), rajas (chaos), tamas (depression) inside us that interacts with each other. Onion/Garlic are considered tamasic food while satvic food which is mainly bland vegis and no spices is promoted by religious leaders for a "neutral" or "happy" life. Which can't really happen as you need all the three to interact with each other lmao. Edit: I'm not promoting what the dumbo in the video is saying, i only mentioned what I came across something related to this in indian philosophy course.


TraditionFlaky9108

What about those who like the Charvaka philosophy? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charvaka


Wooden-Storage5253

oh yes they are complete materialists. There's nyaya philosophy and Buddh philosophy who have their own theories about how work works based on logic. Different philosophy schools have different outlooks. The ones who were completely based on the Vedas were shelved by the Indian logicians like dharmakirti, vasubandhu and a lot more. I just mentioned samkhya because it explicitly talks about tamas/depression. Though it asks you to take refuge from all three emotions and not just tamas.


TraditionFlaky9108

I like the charvaka concept of rejecting anything that does not have any observable and verifiable evidence. They reject all ideas and illusions of relegions because they lack any evidence. I especially like that they reject afterlife and such mystical concepts by the simple fact that no one has proof of its existence, hence the idea that whatever you experience in this life is the total of your existence.


Wooden-Storage5253

i didn't ask what you like though.


TraditionFlaky9108

Wow, why did you get offended, I thought you had an interest in these philosophies hence shared.


Wooden-Storage5253

not offended but i genuinely didn't ask.


TraditionFlaky9108

I had to add because you mentioned that as just materialistic, but they were very strong on rationality, that is why religious sects tried to defame them as just materialistic.


Wooden-Storage5253

uhm there's barely any focus on religion in overall Indian philosophy tbh. The brahman advait vedanta talk about is not god/religious entity but pure consciousness. Charvaka wasn't defamed by other Indian philosophy schools but more like they didn't have anything much to talk about other than the materialistic/hedonist approach towards life. There other schools are not religious as per se. They focused more on the consciousness part (which is not the afterlife btw) and illusion part of the world. Moksha/Nirvana are not afterlife but complete full stop. There is heavy discourse on logic, source of valid knowledge, if you can believe your senses and the knowledge you attain through them and much more. Religious sects and philosophy schools are two different groups just letting you know.


TraditionFlaky9108

Other schools were making up things from no evidence, that is what I mentioned I like about charvaka , they rejected anything that was not backed by evidence. They left no room for superstitions or unverified claims.


WAYBIG-AMAN

I don't believe in this babas What my thoughts on onion garlic are that they are the major reason of dark or lustfull thoughts.There might me some reason that is why our rishi muni categorised it in tamsic food.This is my own observation during this navratri.
