Cultural History Of India By Om Prakash Pdf 22

[Georgeann Fearen]

India has distinctive vegetarian cuisines, each a feature of the geographical and cultural histories of its adherents.[465] The appearance of ahimsa, or the avoidance of violence toward all forms of life in many religious orders early in Indian history, especially Upanishadic Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism, is thought to have contributed to the predominance of vegetarianism among a large segment of India's Hindu population, especially in southern India, Gujarat, the Hindi-speaking belt of north-central India, as well as among Jains.[465] Although meat is eaten widely in India, the proportional consumption of meat in the overall diet is low.[466] Unlike China, which has increased its per capita meat consumption substantially in its years of increased economic growth, in India the strong dietary traditions have contributed to dairy, rather than meat, becoming the preferred form of animal protein consumption.[467]
