Animal Sacrifice in Yajñas
Read this thread to know how animal sacrifice got started in Yajñas and what Rishis thought about it.


K!lling animals in Yajñas is against Dharma, hence please allow Brahmins to perform it according to shastras

But Imdra had a Big ego, he refused to follow Dharma

(Mahabharata AshwamedhikaParva adhyay 91)

Devtas wanted to k!ll Goat in Yajña, Rishis told them that Aja means seed, K!lling animals in Yajña is not allowed

"If Shastras allow animal sacrifice then we will fall down, But if shastras prohibit animal sacrifice then you will fall down"
Because 9f this King Vasu fell down proving Rishis were right.

Hence according to him too, It is not allowed

I will make separate threads explaining about Pashu Yajñas, Pashubandh Yajñas and how animals were not harmed there and what was role of animals in Rituals.
नमो नारायणाय
Rishis clearly declared K!lling animals in Yajña is Adharma amd must not be done,
They Said it is GREAT ADHARMA to harm any animals in Yajñas and not in accordance with Vedas

Rishis clearly said Vedas do not allow K!lling of animals in Yajñas, and also that this is Great Adharma, One must follow Vedas for Yajña hence do it with seeds
