Best Answer

Swami Vivekanada, being a Bengali by birth, was non-vegetarian...he had no problem during his extended stay in the U.S. where he ate whatever was offered by his American hosts. His Guru Ramkrisha used to say that if the mind is pure, even if you eat pork, that will have no advese affect.

But it is true that most Hindu monks are vegetarian.

I have the same question but so far all I have found is that he was vegetarian. Or at least people are saying that, and I don't know better.

What I am pretty sure is that Arjuna (Krishna's best friend) went out to hunt and Krishna's son (Pradyumna) hunted a deer to eat.

yes all Hindus believed in non-meat eating. so it make sense that their own god of creation and destruction would be vegetarian
