You would come across our elders and other moral scientists, god men, spiritual leaders and other preachers asking people to refrain people from drinking coffee/tea or consuming garlic and onions.
Have we ever thought why?
I recently happened to listen to a spiritual discourse rendered by the renowned scholar Velukkudi Krishnan. He too told the same. DO NOT DRINK COFFEE/TEA. DO NOT EAT GARLIC AND ONIONS. Though I am not convinced by the reasons he put, I feel this could be the reason.
Man is an addictive animal. Once he gets addicted and attached to something, he latches onto it for the rest of his life till he gets addicted to something else which automatically De-addicts him from the previous thing. Affection is good, Addiction is not. Coffee, Tea, Garlic and Onions are addictive agents. Once you get latched onto it, it is difficult to get rid of them. But, like I said before, they also act as a de-addiction agent. Let us suppose, someone is a chain smoker but doesn't have the habit of drinking coffee/tea (could be rare, but just assume this for the sake of argument). If he starts consuming Coffee, he soon gets addicted to it. This addiction helps reduce cigarette smoking. So, this is good in one way or other.
