I have heard in many places that lentils are non-vegetarian. For this reason, it is forbidden to take these pulses on the day of any pujo or mother's sixth day. The explanation behind this is as common as the interpretation, the interpretation is different in Kalveda.
In ancient times, according to Hinduism, lentils along with fish, meat, eggs, onions, garlic, etc., were not considered acceptable. The reason is that these foods destroy people's sense of self. Later it was revealed that these pulses are healthy. At that time most of the girls were widows at a young age. Various rules were introduced for the sake of strength and youth in their bodies. Any non-vegetarian food is healthy, along with these lentils. These foods were excluded from their lives so that their health would deteriorate. At the same time, they imposed many more rules, including observing Ekadashi, so that they would go on a life of starvation and eat less healthy food. In those days young girls were married off to very old people. Although the man had many shareholders in his estate after his death, his widow was considered one of the main shareholders. This time it was convenient for the rest of the partners if he also died due to lack of nutrition.
Nutritional analysis of lentil pulses in the present era has shown that these pulses contain animal protein. It contains the same essential amino acids that are also found in fish meat. That is why it is considered as meat. Another view is that lentils are non-vegetarian because onion and garlic are mainly used during cooking. Although I occasionally cook these pulses without the onion garlic, with the colloid or in the cooking frying pan. But whether it is vegetarian or non-vegetarian, there is no disagreement that the dal is very healthy.
