sacrifice itself is compared in the Vedas to creation and existence. Creation, preservation, and dissolution are different aspects of sacrifice only. Why it is degenerated into sacrifice of cattle?
The shift from the philosophical concept of yajna as universal, non-violent self-sacrifice to the literal slaughter of animals is generally considered a later, more ritualistic interpretation that arose in the post-Vedic age, partly due to a misunderstanding of Vedic terminology and the influence of different cultural practices.
The Original Concept of Sacrifice (Yajna)
In the earliest Vedic philosophy, particularly in the Rig Veda and Upanishads, yajna (sacrifice) had a profound and mostly symbolic meaning.
Cosmic Creation: The Purusha Sukta in the Rig Veda describes the universe's creation through a primordial, selfless act of sacrifice (sarvahut) by the universal being (Purusha), who offered himself to become the manifest world. This established sacrifice as the fundamental law of existence and a continuous cycle of "give and take" that sustains the cosmos.
Internal and Symbolic: The true spirit of yajna was about the renunciation of one's ego, attachments, and negative tendencies for the greater good. Offerings into the sacred fire (Agni) were symbolic of offering one's material desires and internal impurities.
Non-Violence (Ahimsa): Many Vedic texts, including the Atharva Veda and Yajur Veda, contain strong injunctions against harming innocent creatures, especially cows, often using the term aghnya ("not to be killed"). The word yajna itself has synonyms like adhvara, meaning "that which is free from violence".
Against this AI overview Bishat Kumar, An hardcore theist says: Although animal killing in a sacrifice is recommended in the Vedic literature, the animal is not considered to be killed. The sacrifice is to give a new life to the animal. Sometimes the animal is given a new animal life after being killed in the sacrifice, and sometimes the animal is promoted immediately to the human form of life. But in Kaliyuga it is prohibited totally and it is a sin because no such exalted Brahmnas exist today who can deliver animals another life by sacrificing them in Yajna, actually in starting of Kaliyuga, Brahmans used to do animal sacrifices. To stop that only, Supreme Personality of Godhead Lord Vishnu incarnated as Lord Buddha to divert people from Vedas, and he preached Ahimsa Parmo Dharmah. (One can understand why Godless Buddha, the promoter of Non-violence and annihilator of Hindu Caste Hierarchy had been changed to Avatar of Vishnu. But Shankaracharya made Hindus drive away the ideology of Buddha from its land of origin.)
