Jainism

Jains eat no meat and try not to kill any living creature, even an ant. They do not eat any vegetable  which comes out of the ground such as onions, potatoes and garlic. Cooking without these ingredients would be very difficult. We  came across a Jain temple in Delhi which ran a bird hospital. Alas, the hospital was not for any meat eating birds! These Jain rock carvings were on the path up to Gwalior fort.
