ʻO ka bipi kapu kahi idiom. Hoʻohana ʻia ka huaʻōlelo a i ʻole ka huaʻōlelo me ka ʻole o ka kuhikuhi maoli i nā holoholona a i ʻole ka hoʻomana. Ke ʻōlelo a kākau paha lākou i "bipi kapu," ke manaʻo nei lākou i kekahi mea i mālama ʻia no ka manawa lōʻihi a makaʻu ka poʻe a makemake ʻole paha e hōʻino a nīnau paha i kēia kūlana.
Hoʻokumu ʻia ka idiom i ka hanohano i hāʻawi ʻia i nā bipi wahine i ka Hindu. ʻO ka "bipi kapu" a i ʻole "bipi kapu" ʻaʻole ia he kia hoʻomanaʻo, akā he holoholona maoli, i mālama ʻia me ka mahalo maoli.
ʻAʻole laʻa ka bipi i India, akā mahalo ʻia
I ka Hindu, manaʻo ʻia ka bipi he mea kapu a mahalo ʻia paha. ʻAʻole hoʻomana nā Hinedu i nā bipi, mahalo lākou iā lākou. Pili ke kumu i ka waiwai mahiʻai o ka bipi a me kona ʻano akahai. Hoʻohana nā Hindus i nā bipi:
- i ka hana ʻana i nā huahana waiū;
- no ka loaʻa ʻana o nā mea momona a me ka wahie mai ka manure.
No laila, ʻo ka bipi ka "kahu" a i ʻole kiʻi makuahine. Hōʻike ʻia kahi akua wahine Hindu ma ke ʻano he bipi: Bhoomi (ভূমি) a kū i ka Honua.
Hoʻohanohano ʻo Hindus i ka bipi no kāna ʻano akahai. ʻO ke aʻo nui o ka Hindu ʻaʻole ia e hōʻeha i ka holoholona (ahimsa). Hāʻawi pū ka bipi i ka waiūpaka (ghee) kahi e huki ʻia ai ka mana. Hoʻohanohano ʻia ka bipi i ke kaiāulu a ʻaʻole ʻai ka nui o nā India i ka pipi. Ua pāpā ka hapa nui o nā mokuʻāina ma India i ka ʻai ʻana o ka ʻiʻo bipi.
Ahaaina na ka bipi
I ka moʻomeheu Hindu, mahalo ʻia ka bipi, kāhiko ʻia me nā lei a hāʻawi ʻia i nā mea kūikawā i nā ʻaha ma nā wahi āpau o India. ʻO kekahi o lākou ka hoʻolauleʻa makahiki Gopastami i hoʻolaʻa ʻia iā Krishna a me nā bipi wahine.
ʻO ke ʻano o ka bipi e Kamadhenu, ke akua wahine ka makuahine o nā bipi āpau. Aia ma mua o 3000 nā hale i India, i kapa ʻia ʻo gaushals, e mālama nei i nā holoholona kahiko a nāwaliwali hoʻi. Wahi a nā helu helu holoholona, aia ma India ma kahi o 44.9 miliona mau bipi wahine, ke kiʻekiʻe loa ma ka honua. Noho nā holoholona ʻelemakule a palupalu i nā gaushal, ʻo ke koena, ma ke ʻano he nui, holo wale i nā wahi lehulehu e like me nā kahua kaʻaahi a me nā bazaars.
Hāʻawi ka hoʻohanohano ʻana i ka bipi i ka poʻe me ka maikaʻi, akahai a hoʻohui iā lākou me ke kūlohelohe. Hāʻawi ka bipi i ka waiū a me ka waiū, ka yogurt a me ka tī, ka waiūpaka a me nā kalima, a me nā ghee. Manaʻo ʻia he hoʻomaʻemaʻe ka waiū o ka bipi i kekahi kanaka. Hoʻohana ʻia ʻo Ghee (butter butter) i nā hanana a me ka hoʻomākaukau ʻana i nā meaʻai haipule. Hoʻohana nā Indians i ka lepo o nā bipi ma ke ʻano he mea momona, wahie a me ka mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe kino i ko lākou mau home.
