When we eat Orange, we do not destroy whole tree, but for root vegetable ( potato , Carrot , Onion , Garlic , Ginger etc) , whole plant is uprooted killing plant &multi-organic ( Plants which have infinite souls) creatures living in soil / on that plant. So this is first reason why Jainism Religion guides not to eat root vegetables as right to live for these multi-organic creatures



Garlic and onions are avoided as they promote anger, hatred, jealousy , arouses sex , so inspite of possessing few medicinal charateristics since garlic & Onion blocks spiritual growth (blocks Liberation of Soul from Life & death Karma Cycle) increasing difficulty to Meditate & one looses concentration . Hence Jainism teaches to skip Root vegetables those who are thriving for spiritual growth , positive attitude & who want to increase their Concentration power .



After death a dead body is found in Graveyard & our Stomach is not a grave yard then why to eat deadbodies ( animals – Non-vegetarian Food). We should avoid non-vegetarian Food. And Non-vegetarian food also invites many diseases to our body in Long term.
