I respect those who have placed restrictions on themselves to nurture a certain energy.
It’d be easier for them to eat whatever and wherever, no? Isn’t it a sacrifice to refuse an invitation like that.

This seems like one of the recurring negative experiences.
The colonial state robbing Hindu temples dry is not without consequence. It needs to be addressed.
