I’m not quite sure I believe this...

It even says they eat the meat, hello, we’re talking Hindus?

I guess Hindus eat Buffalo meat.

Checking out the list of animals in the initial "send off" sacrifice, they have their own version of "turducken" (turkey, stuffed with a duck, stuffed with a hen ~ a favorite item in Lawziane) but this one is made with "two wild rats, two pigeons, a rooster, a lamb and a pig".

The Romans had a variation where they ended up with a rhinoceros stuffed with all sorts of stuff, and then roasted inside an elephant. Hindus also practice "the burnt offering" ~ just like the good old days.

BTW, there's a misunderstanding that Hinduism is a unified, uniform religion ~ it's not. Rather it's simply an agreement among all the various ancient religious groups in India to not violate caste lines, nor to seek members among the others.

Christians, Moslems and Buddhists are not part of the deal although there are frequent attempts made by your more classically oriented Hindus to FORCE them to accept the deal ~ that's where you get your "Hindu mob burns Christian missionary with tires" stories or "Hindus run rampant through Moslem quarter murdering women and children".

The Buddhists have mostly relocated to the perimeter of India proper. More recently tens of millions of Moslems gave up trying to suppress Hinduism and formed their own countries at the perimeter ~ to wit: Pakistan and Bengladesh.
