Vedic Reference Regarding Intoxication

In the Manu Samhita it is stated:na māṁsa-bhakṣaṇe doṣona madye na ca maithunepravṛttir eṣā bhūtānāṁnivṛttis tu mahā-phalā"It may be considered that meat-eating, intoxication and sex indulgence are natural propensities of the conditioned souls, and therefore such persons should not be condemned for these activities. But unless one gives up such sinful activities, there is no possibility of achieving the actual perfection of life."Tags:
