was hanuman vegetarian?

Answer 1

In all religious books,like Ramayan by Valmiki or Ramcharita Manas ,by Shri Tulsi Das, Kamba Ramayan or Adhyatma Ramayan, Shri Hanuman has been described as eating fruits only. There is not an iota of indication in any book, that I have read, that Shri Hanuman was not a vegetarian.The very idea of his being non-veg is repulsive.

Answer 2

The interesting thing about your question is that its logical extension would be to ask if Hanuman was in a monkey body because of past causes, and so was subject to the conditioning of that body.
This implies two possibilities:
The first possibility is that if the monkey body was the result of similar causes to other monkey bodies and the conditioning was in fact the same, then for a monkey body to eat insects and so on would not be unusual.
The second possibility is that special circumstances apply to obtaining this monkey body, then the body would be subject to special conditioning.
The second possibility brings about the difficulty that in this case the "normal" course of cause and effect (karma) would not apply. If cause and effect do not apply in one circumstance how can they logically be thought to apply in any other circumstances? How can the law of cause and effect be applied arbitrarily and still be seen as having universal application?
As a result your question can only be answered on the basis of belief. What you believe will determine how you will view the different personages in different circumstances.
