A religious leader in Gujarat has said that menstruating women who cook food for their husbands will take birth as dogs in their next life while men having such food will be reborn as bullocks. “It is certain that men will be born as bullocks in their next life if they consume food cooked by menstruating women. I don’t care if you do not like my views, but this is all written in our shastras. If a menstruating woman cooks food for her husband, she will be definitely born as a she-dog in her next life,” Krushnaswarup said while delivering a sermon in Gujarati. Scolding women for being “careless” about their menstruation period, which he likened with “penance”, Krushnaswarup advised men to learn cooking.
