Hunger
is a biological necessity. An inalienable demand and a healthy sign ensuring
proper growth and it must be appeased timely and duly. It is applicable to all
the animate beings, from amoeba to the highest God, instrumental for creation of
cosmos. It varies from person to person among mankind. Strangely enough, there
are countless types of stuffs catering to a wide variety of tastes. Tastes and
habits reflect one's style of life and nature of breeding. Diet regulation is
advocated for sound health. Quantity of intake must also be kept under control
for the same reason.
Much
against the specific and strict hygienic rules, people rarely adhere to them..
Their passions. sometimes are held up to criticism, whether they belong to
higher class or otherwise. Would gods be exonerated? But some circumstances
bring them credit, even if the demand is not befitting their station. People out
of extreme devotion for their ishtadaivams offer that type of food with utmost
piety. The appeased gods do certainly turn partial and fulfill the desires of the
bhaktas.
