Description

" Spiritual cleanliness is achived and maintained through avoiding religiously taboo food such as pork and intoxicating drinks such as alcohol. These items are strictly avoided not only because of religious restrictions, but also because of the related belief that food becomes darah daging (flesh) and will be with a person forever."
