Act of offering of slaughtered animals or human beings was not enjoined by the scriptures. The men, who practice terrific austerities not enjoined by the scriptures, are given to hypocrisy and egoism impelled by the force of desire and attachment. Senseless, torturing the body and Me also, who dwells in the body, know these people to be of demoniac resolve. God dis-approves torture of the body and Gita Gyan reveals Oneness of all the beings that makes all the beings sacred. Can we really believe that the sacrifice of an animal or a person will be accepted by God as an offering? Greatest sacrifice performed by God is a creation of the universe; rendering selfless service is a form of sacrifice.
