Dilemma regarding eggs: Your advice
There are various reasons not to eat eggs:
It is not saatvik.
It cannot be offered as Bhog to Prabhu.
It involves cruelty to animals.
But 1 and 2 are also applicable to onions and garlic. But eating onions and garlic are not sins until Guru Diksha. If cruelty-free unfertilized eggs are eaten then 3 is not applicable too. So cruelty-free unfertilized eggs are as good as onions and garlic and may be eaten atleast until Guru Diksha.
However, many Sants like pujya Shri Hit Premanand ji Maharaj say not to eat eggs. Also, Gita says that eating tamsik food makes one tamsik.
Having stopped eating eggs for a long time now, I noticed that my Bhakti increased. However, nutritional content of eggs seems irreplaceable (high protein to calories ratio).
Any inputs/advice would be appreciated.
