What do you mean you don't kill people?

Vegetarianism-cultivating compassion

The director continued to tell you today, why should we learn Buddhism and be vegetarian? Why not kill animals? In fact, the Bodhisattva has long told us that "all beings are like Buddha". What is sentient beings? All living beings have Buddha nature. For example, our ancestors, or our descendants, committed crimes and will be reincarnated as animals after death. At that time, if he was a dog, if you killed the dog in your home, you actually killed a sentient being. Moreover, the Bodhisattva said that "all beings have Buddha nature" and should all be regarded as Buddhas. What do you mean, "treat everyone as a Buddha"? It is to treat everything as a bodhisattva, because buddhas and bodhisattvas treat all beings as buddhas. We say that Buddha is all sentient beings, and all sentient beings are Buddhas. So we have the foundation to become a Buddha. We may be Buddhas in the past, and we may become Buddhas in the future. "I became a Buddha, you didn't become a Buddha. If you can believe this, you have enough commandments. " In other words, I may have been a Buddha, or I may have been a Buddha, and you are the future Buddha, just as we call many people "little bodhisattvas" now. If you can believe this, you will become a Buddha, and your commandments are enough. If you can respect all sentient beings and treat all sentient beings as Buddhas, your precepts and your qualities are enough, which shows that you can already believe that you are an unfinished Buddha.

Therefore, we should give up killing. We can't compete with it because we want to kill people, because we want to kill wild animals and animals, and for the health of killing people, we can use it to please me. You killed someone, ate it yourself, put some sauce and vinegar in it, and thought it was delicious. In fact, how cruel it is. As we all know, there is a shop in Guangdong that eats monkeys. Monkeys are like people. One by one, they were kept in small cages. When those little monkeys saw a man come in, everyone covered their eyes with their hands, because the killing of horses began. Dip the cage into the water and the little monkey will die. These little monkeys can't help covering their eyes when they see their colleagues killed like this. Just as the Japanese killed China people in the past, we saw them kill our compatriots. What can we do? You know, murder is a heinous crime, and the murderer will go to hell. People all over the world are used to killing. Do you know how many people are killing people? Do you know how many chickens and ducks are killed every day? In this small place of Hong Kong alone,100000 chickens are slaughtered every day. Think about it. Killing is such a crime. Now we kill chickens, ducks, dogs and rabbits at will. This is nothing at all. We still have to eat. How do we eat?

We are used to many things, just like swearing. We are used to killing, so we must understand that we can't kill. Including offering sacrifices to the gods and ancestors, raising relatives and entertaining guests, and not doing the ceremony without meat. These are all past concepts, and it is believed that this ceremony can only be done with meat, not without meat. Think about it, it is extremely tragic to raise relatives and entertain guests, thinking that you want to sacrifice meat to God and ancestors and exchange other people's lives for your own support. Killing other people's meat to show their sincere filial piety, parents are unwilling to accept it. Kill the spirituality of the family to be filial to yourself. After many people are killed, he will leave his feelings and hate, and his life will become more and more miserable. Just like a pig killer, his family will never be rich, his life will be miserable and his emotional luck will get worse. Think about it, some sentient beings have been reincarnated six times since the robbery, and can be our parents, brothers, wives and dependents. Think about it. We used to be relatives. If they are reincarnated in the animal path, you are still taking revenge and killing people. Bodhisattva once advised us in scripture to abstain from killing. You should know that you can't kill, because you need compassion, and you can cultivate compassion, so that you can not kill, and fewer people believe. Therefore, we should learn from Buddha's compassion, and we should not take other people's bodies to support others and ourselves. This is an evil obstacle.

Listeners and friends, as we all know, the Buddha's great compassion shows everything, not just to people, but to all beings. So avoid killing. We can't kill any small creatures, such as shells, clams, pigs, tripe, liver, etc. Eating them will make people uneasy. Because these things are eaten in your body, because you are eating humane things that have changed from animals to human beings, in fact, your heart will be contaminated with those factors of animals. The reason is so simple, how many people understand it? For example, I used to be a good person. After my thoughts were instilled with the theory of hooligans and robbers, I no longer looked like a person. You are like a gangster and a robber. Your theory makes you forget that you are alone. So, understand that we don't know, that's the past. Now we understand, understand, and we are enlightened. We can't kill any more animals, let alone eat them. If you think about it, when you kill an animal, it will also get hurt. It feels, but it can't talk.

Some people say that people who can't talk are born for me to eat. Don't you have a brother who is dumb? Should you kill him, too? Have you eaten? These are absurd theories. The director told everyone that you must not kill! You should know that although people and animals have different forms, souls and consciousness, their pain is the same. They are all creatures. Just like children who are not sensible and adults who are sensible, they are human beings. You can't treat them as foreign things. Therefore, every animal, including advanced animals such as human beings, has the sensitivity of spiritual things, that is to say, spiritual objects have their IQ and understanding. We pay attention to five ethics and eight virtues, that is, we don't let people "kill, steal and indulge." We are talking about not letting others hurt others or ourselves. We are talking about getting along sincerely, caring for animals and caring for people; Therefore, killing meat, that is to say, after you kill animals, eating the meat of those animals yourself will give you what you deserve. Everyone thinks about it. In the history of China, many people were rewarded for killing people. Many people have killed people in history, and it didn't end well. Think of Libyan President Muammar Gaddafi. He killed countless people, and the final result was to be killed. What good results did he have? Since ancient times, murderers have hanged themselves.

We should learn from the views of saints. We can't use others, nor can we use animals to support our bodies. You know, the descendants of people who harm people and things must be immortal and extinct. In other words, if the ancestors don't accumulate virtue, it will definitely affect his next generation; If the ancestors are wicked, it will definitely affect his next generation. The director has an audience, the ancestors have a career of killing people, and the children are all mentally ill. Therefore, it is necessary to understand that "the survivors in Qing Yu are celebrating the remnants of the disaster", that is to say, you have a little disaster and a little happiness now, just because you did a little good and a lot of bad things in your last life. People who have accumulated good deeds have been subjected to the afterlife, which is much better than those we don't know yet. Therefore, we parents should think of our children. We can't do many unnatural things, because if you do unnatural things, it will affect the growth of your next generation. For example, we are in Australia now, and many people don't care about their health. Many women drink and smoke when they are pregnant, and finally give birth to disabled children. After the child came into this world, he was in pain. Isn't it because of his mother? Children come to this world, suffer so much, and are looked down upon by others at school; Reading, people can learn, he can't learn; Looks half big face and half small face; As soon as the words came out, I knew there was something wrong with my brain. You have caused the child a lifetime of pain, and this is what you have done.

Therefore, people should understand that we must have a rest for a while. Many people feel very happy when they eat something in their mouths, but he can't understand that he will suffer great disasters forever. He will suffer these great disasters forever and leave them to his descendants. Listeners and friends, medicine has proved that people who are often vegetarian will have a peaceful mind; People who are often vegetarian will be as beautiful as flowers and plants; Vegetarians will grow taller and taller like ears of rice, but their heads will hang lower and lower, and they will be modest and cautious. Let's think about it. Carnivores have sharp teeth, but we are not carnivores. Our intestines are long. Just learn a little knowledge. People have a long intestine, which is good for digestion, but carnivores have a short intestine, such as tigers and lions. So carnivores, when meat goes in, will excrete it quickly, while people will bypass the intestines after eating it. Think about it. If you don't put this meat in the refrigerator, it will stink in a few hours. Although we will cook hard before eating it, it is still meat. It's been in your stomach for a long time, but it still can't be turned out and absorbed. After a long time, why don't things grow in the intestines? So understand that we can't eat meat, let alone live meat. Doctors have long advised us to be vegetarian as we get older. Vegetarianism is good for our health.

I have said so much to my friends in the audience today, and I hope everyone will be sympathetic. Where is the sympathy of people now? A two-year-old girl was run over by a car in Foshan, Guangdong. None of the more than ten people on the side went to the rescue. Only one aunt who picked up garbage went to save her and donated 24,000 RMB to pick up garbage. Aren't people all upside down now? What the hell are rich people doing? For money, fame and profit, do unnatural things all day, bully others all day, and be selfish all day. In order to make money, we do not hesitate to harm the interests of others. And those scavengers, those old mothers, their conscience still exists. This is why the man who practiced in his last life has a blessing in this life, while the man who has a blessing in this life does not practice in this life, and he will have no blessing in the next life. Therefore, people who suffer hardships will cultivate their hearts; Only those who have suffered will know how to cherish happiness. He can't be happy without suffering. Just like a child born in a rich family, money is just a numerical concept to him. Will this child cherish money? And why can children from poor families take charge early? Because he knows that money is hard to come by.
