    Hare Krishna and Dandvat Pranaam..

    Just to add upon, what i feel is that since onion and garlic increases the gratification in the body so it is prohibited in Vaishnavism. Gratification leads to aasakti (attachment) and we need to become detached in order to direct our senses to be engaged in service of Lord Krishna.

    Hope i am able to convey you my learnings.

    Thanx and Hare Krishna..

    Hare Krishna Prabhuji. Dandavat Pranam. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

    Onion and Garlic comes under Tamasik or ignorant and Rajasik or passionate food category. The food we take effects the state of mind. Food should be swatvik or in mode of goodness to understand spiritual matter. Krishna is transcendental, so the subject matter related to Krishna is transcendental , that is why we need to be atleast in the mode of goodness in order to understand the subject matter.

            Hare Krishna. PAMHO. AGTSP.

            Just to add to Sudipta Roy Prabhu's answer, just as a Vaisnava cant think of anything else except Krishna nor can he eat what Krishna cant eat. As Krishna says that only vegetarian meals can me offered to Him. So if Krishna doesn't eat onions and garlic then why should we eat it?

            Your Servant.

            Hari Bol!
