Stop Performing Animal Sacrifice in the Name of Religious Practice

Target: Nitish Kumar, Chief Minister of Bihar

Goal: End animal sacrifices at Shyama Mai temple, enforcing humane religious practices.

In the serene precincts of Shyama Mai temple in the state of Bihar in India, a disturbing ritual lurks. Allegations have emerged of animal sacrifices being conducted, despite recent controversy and a supposed ban. This practice, deeply entrenched in tradition, continues to shock and dismay those who value animal welfare. The temple management, while stating neutrality, implicitly permits these acts, leading to a complex and emotionally charged situation.

Recent changes by the temple committee, including building walls around sacrificial areas, suggest a shift towards concealment rather than cessation. Meanwhile, calls for symbolic sacrifices, like chopping ash gourds or breaking coconuts, have emerged as humane alternatives. Yet, these have not quelled the persistence of actual animal sacrifices. A blend of religious fervor and tradition fuels these acts, often overshadowing the plight of the animals involved.

This situation demands urgent intervention. Respect for religious practices must harmoniously coexist with the principles of compassion and non-violence. Call upon the authorities to enforce the ban on animal sacrifices at Shyama Mai temple.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear CM Nitish Kumar,

We write to you with a deep sense of urgency and concern regarding the ongoing issue at Shyama Mai temple in Darbhanga. Reports of animal sacrifices, despite the ban, are alarming and demand your immediate attention. The temple committee’s recent actions, including constructing barriers around sacrificial areas, have not alleviated the situation. Instead, they have merely obscured it.

While the temple management espouses neutrality, their stance indirectly perpetuates these practices. Symbolic sacrifices have been suggested as alternatives, yet the traditional sacrifice of animals reportedly continues. This not only raises ethical concerns but also reflects poorly on our collective commitment to compassion and non-violence. It is crucial to understand that religious practices can evolve to be more humane and in tune with modern ethical standards.

Therefore, we urge you to take decisive action. Enforce the ban on animal sacrifices at Shyama Mai temple, ensuring compliance through effective monitoring and regulation. Promote symbolic rituals that respect both religious sentiments and animal welfare. It is time to lead a change that honors our rich cultural heritage while upholding our duty towards all living beings.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

  1. These people that do this are so inherently evil and sick they either know what they are doing and they don’t care, or they have been raised to believe that this is the way to live and to worship. I thank God every day that I am not that way, and for the good people who are animal humane and anti-cruelty. (This is also occurring on a regular basis in Africa, and petitions are out there to stop it, see: PETA.) Teach the children that this is NOT how animals are to be treated, and punish the adults who torture, maim and kill, this is the only way to deter and to STOP it once and for all !!!!

  2. Agree all comments do it to them. Stop now whats wrong with this world. Sacrifice these fuckers what a load of bs.

    As soon as I read the headline I just knew that the country involved was that most brutal, cruel, sadistic, barbaric, hell-hole killing field INDIA…..This country is fast sinking into the cess-pit for depravity with its psychotic masses committing heinous atrocities to ALL animals but especially dogs, cats, cattle (although SUPPOSED to be sacred) and all other species. SHAME on this god-forsaken country.

    It is never justifiable to torture a living being, whatever the circumstances. On a basic level, the reason why this ban is absolute is very simple: torture and inhuman or degrading treatment is wrong because it violates our human dignity.
    Animal cruelty should never be condoned, pls save these innocent souls by banning animal sacrifices at Shyama Mai temple immediately.
