Eating is getting problematic: Meat

Every seed bears genus of the fruit it produce. Similarly, quality of godly nature is part of the divine conscience a person emanates, while dealing with life. Divine conscience and just behavior are complementary to each other in every sphere of life. But, the question that is pertaining to today’s discussion wish to explore a relationship between the divine conscience and cultural practice?

Here, at the outset, let me clarify that your divine conscience and cultural practice has either no relationship or inverse relationship. It has no relationship as long as one does not take part in the cultural practice.On contrary, it has inverse relationship because divinity will hold freedom supreme, whereas, a cultural practice would take away the same freedom, which is dear to divinity.

For divine conscience, no cultural practice holds any value or ethics. The divinely propelled conscience people would avoid discomforting fellow beings either in conversation or public dealing. Something concerns the eating practice, a divine conscience would only have one reason to eat one specific kind of food or might as well eat any thing or every thing that served on the table.

Whereas, a person of cultural partisan might have a lot over one reason to consume different food at different occasion for different purposes. In the situation of making a choice about food habits, one reason is better than more reasons to keep it simple. If I tell you that what you eat is not permissible by God. Then, I assume this might upset you. Does God wants its creation to remain upset on such trivial daily chores? Of course, not.

Eating norms are taking a new divergence in nationalist societies of the world at the end of this decade, once again. They banned early this year, Kosher and Halal meat practices in Belgium. However, this referendum emerged as impression of democracy, despite being an, unanimously, conceded move by the majority.

The two meat practices are part of Jews and Muslim rituals of eating meat all over the world. This news is un-gulp-able because people voted this issue remains culpable living in Europe; when countries in Europe has always been the torch bearer of human rights, values and ethics.

The technological world order emerging from confluence of third and fourth industrial revolution is a society of new morality, at least working at the behest of new robotic language. The reverse globalization and political incorrectness entwiningly suggests a more complex outburst of nationalistic fervor throughout the world.

India, is no exception in the race of electoral politics. Political parties, unanimously, protecting cows from getting slaughtered for private consumption, with only a caveat that they have made no policy to look into the cattle roaming on the urban streets. In rural areas disturbing farmers crop in the hunt for food for themselves. Food sensitivity is not new in India, but this time the many major democracies of the world are part of this sensitization.

For some of you who are guessing from where did the practice of washing hands before food has come from? In fact, first written evidence originates from the Old Testament books. Yes, it started with Jews. Historically, Jews has been very civilization of advanced people. This is clear from the fact that Kosher meat is at the same time Halal meat but Halal meat is not a Kosher meat.

Today, the world has enough food to feed its people and it proves Malthusian economics wrong. So what? Does this legitimise one side to dictate the other? Second, could we be so naïve to believe that there are no hungry population in the world and everybody gets minimum two portion of meal a day. The political economy of food is in a constant clash with political ecology leading to fear what to eat and what to leave. Thoughtful readers, let me remind you that as long as you are mindful of what you eating, and provider of your eating till then every edible food is permissible.

As long as you share what you eat and thank God for the daily bread, everything you eat is permissible. Let no political ideology beguile you of your eating practices and habits. At the seashore, it was two fish and five loaves of bread that was multiped. It was neither Kosher or Halal meat. May be you become freer to think God is always kind to its creation.
