Yagya and animal

I want to ask that why animals were offered in yagya?as that of ramji's ancestor ambariisha and did animals have to be offered in every type of yagya?

They were given as Daan to pandits. That was the sacrifice

The mughal paintings have created a wrong image that animals were killed after the Yagya

Ashwamedha ka horse was killed.

Though, I don't think every yagya needed that, only the major ones.

Ashwa - horse

Medha - flesh

I believe they ate/donated the flesh of the sacrificial horse there.

Reason: I believe the reason was to satisfy the Gods (through Agni and Brahman).

Cruel, yes, but custom also. 😳

The ashwamedha horse was cooked after the yagna and fed to all the attendees. It wasn't a vegetarian society back then

You all know we have four Veda in Sanatan Dharma and there five types of Yagya are mentioned"!

ब्रह्मयज्ञ, देवयज्ञ, पितृयज्ञ, वैश्वदेवयज्ञ और अतिथि यज्ञ

"In all these Yagya the sacrifice of animals isn't acceptable. It's term sinfully wrong"!

But yes the Bali paratha is often seen in Tantra Shastra which signifies Asur clan"! Perhaps they're reason"! Or else

"The people were such who could cut their own flesh for the sake of bird taken shelter from them"!

''मा नो गोषु मा नो अश्वेसु रीरिष:।''- ऋग्वेद 1/114/8

अर्थ : हमारी गायों और घोड़ों को मत मार।

'इममूर्णायुं वरुणस्य नाभिं त्वचं पशूनां द्विपदां चतुष्पदाम्।

त्वष्टु: प्रजानां प्रथमं जानिन्नमग्ने मा हिश्सी परमे व्योम।।''

अर्थ : ''उन जैसे बालों वाले बकरी, ऊंट आदि चौपायों और पक्षियों आदि दो पगों वालों को मत मार।।''- यजु. 13/50

न कि देवा इनीमसि न क्या योपयामसि। मन्त्रश्रुत्यं चरामसि।।'- सामवेद-2/7

अर्थ : ''देवों! हम हिंसा नहीं करते और न ही ऐसा अनुष्ठान करते हैं, वेद मंत्र के आदेशानुसार आचरण करते हैं।''

"These lines are from Three Ved and they speak of being against sacrifice of animals"! Sanatan dharm is always against brutality against animals"! Geeta upnishad Veda all of these doesn't support Bali paratha"! This is something come in addition later on"!

I comp,Evelyn agree with you .

The most ancient scriptures ..the Vedas shun animal sacrifice , they preach us to live all living creatures like we love ourselves .

Bold Exactly 👍🏼this what we should believe in cause this is where our root reside 🤓 when the world didn't knew the way of language we had scriptures

We shouldn't believe on one which imposed later on fkr whatever evil reason 😈

Irony is most of them aren't even aware of it hence they see it happening support it or despise the Sanatan dharma
