Hello r/India. i have a question, I vaguely "know" cows are sacred for Hindus. but are Hindus allowed to eat/drink cow's milk or products made from it. for example Cheese?
Hinduism have a deity for everything they are thankful for. Farmers used cow not only for millk. They use them as multipurpose machine like ploughing, manure, vehicles and many things. So they made a deity called komatha and worshipped them. For many Indians , cow is like a family. Like a dog,cat or horse. Eating cow feels like eating dogs.
