I want to know your views on the food habits and its relation with brahmins. Does it mean those who eat non veg or non brahmins and those who do not eat non veg or brahmins else those who by performing religious acts like performing homams,etc are brahmins and others are non brahmins? Is it a crime if a brahmin eats egg?

Dear sir,

Eggs falls under Rajas type of food hence not conducive for spiritual progress.

Some might argue on technical grounds that farm eggs are not fertilized hence no loss of lives but on a personal note I don't eat eggs cos of the torture hens in egg farms go through to produce eggs.

They are placed in cramped up cages where they cannot even stand up and are even at times given electric shocks to increase egg production.

Nowadays many people from various communities and religions adopt vegetarianism/veganism for various reasons.
