They choose not to eat beef because the cow provides sustenance w/its milk,yogurt, butter etc. If we kill the cow, we end it's life giving qualities.

Most Hindus think that it is against their religion to have non-vegetarian food But the fact is that the Hindu scriptures permit a person to have meat The scripture mentions sages and saints having meat. Hindu scriptures clearly mention that there is nothing wrong in having meat or beef. Read on...
It is mentioned in Manu Smruti, the law book of Hindus! In chapter 5 verse 30 “The eater who eats the flesh of those to be eaten does nothing bad! even if he does it day after day; for God himself created some to be eaten and some to be eater”
Again next verse of Manu Smruti that is; chapter 5 verse 31 says “Eating meat is right for the sacrifice, this is traditionally known as a rule of the gods”
Further in Manu Smruti chapter 5 verse 39 and 40 says
“God himself created sacrificial animals for sacrifice… therefore killing in a sacrifice is not killing.”
Manu Smruti even narrates the supremacy of killing animals in sacrifice it is mentioned in chapter 5 verse 42
“A twice born (a Brahmin) who knows the true meaning of Vedas and injures sacrificial animals for CORRECT PURPOSES cause both himself and the animal to go to the highest level of existence".
Among the Hindu scriptures Vedas are considered as most ancient and most sacred. We find mentioning of non-vegetarian food in Vedas too it is mentioned in Rig-Veda book 10 Hymn 27 verse 2
“Then will I, when I lead my friends to battle against the radiant persons of godless, prepare for thee at home a vigorous bullock, and pour for thee the fifteen fold strong juices"
Again in Rig-Veda book 10 Hymn 28 verse 3 it says
"0 Indra, Bulls they dress for thee, and of these (meat) thou eatest when Maghavan, with food thou art invited".
In Rig-Veda Book 10 Hymn 86 verse 13 says
“indra will eat thy bulls, thy dear oblation that effecteth much. Supreme is Indra over all"
These verses indicates that Indra, a god of Vedic age, used to eat meat.Also another god of Vedic age, Agni, is referred to as "flesh-eater' in Vedas. For example, in Rig-Veda bock 10 Hymn 16 verse 10 it is said
"I choose as god for Father-worship Agni, FLESH Eater, who hath past within your dwellings".
If you read Mahabharata Shanti Parva chapter 29, a story of greatness of a king called Rantideva is described It is said that he was very rich and generous, and used to feed thousands of guests. The paragraph reads as follows
“All the vessels and the plates, in Rantideva's palace, for holding food and other articles, all the jugs and other pots, the pan and plates and cups, were of gold. On those nights during which the guests used to live in Rantideva's abode, twenty thousand and one hundred kine {cows} had to be slaughtered. Yet even on such occasions, the cooks, decked in ear-rings, used to proclaim (amongst those that sat for supper) “There is abundant of soup, take as much as you wish, but of flesh we have not as much today as on former occasions"
This shows that even after slaughtering 20,100 cows, meat used to fall short on some occasions.
HINDU'S DO NOT EAT BEEF, BECAUSE IT IS CONSIDERED THAT SLAUGHTERING A COW FOR ITS MEAT IS FAR INFERIOR A PURPOSE AGAINST WHAT THE SAME COW PROVIDES IN TERMS OF OTHER SERVICES IN ITS LIFETIME...this beautiful theology is what seperates the Hindu's from the Muslim's.
Got it ??
