A Review of Beef in Ancient India by Sri Haridas Shastri Gauseva Sansthan

In A Review of 'Beef in Ancient India', the revered Vedic scholar Śrī Haridās Śāstrī Mahārāja offers a detailed and scholarly rebuttal to the controversial claims made by certain Indologists and writers suggesting that beef consumption was prevalent or sanctioned in ancient Hindu culture.
Backed by authoritative references from the Vedas, Smṛtis, Purāṇas, and commentaries of traditional ācāryas, this work defends the Vedic principle of ahiṁsā (non-violence) and the sanctity of the cow in Sanātana Dharma.
Shastri Ji systematically dismantles misinterpretations, mistranslations, and colonial distortions that have led to false narratives, restoring the true Vedic view that gau-hatyā (cow killing) is a grave sin and that gau-sevā (cow protection) is integral to righteous living.
