Can Buddhists drink alcohol?

Buddhists are not allowed to drink alcohol. The reason for this is the following:

First, to truly believe in Buddhism is to believe in the teachings of Buddhism and put them into practice in work and life. The Buddha did some things that Buddhists were forbidden to do, which were called commandments. There are many kinds of commandments, and we choose the corresponding commandments to abide by according to people's identity and environment. But no matter family members or monks, they must abide by the most fundamental five commandments, otherwise they can't call themselves Buddhists. The fifth rule is not to drink alcohol.

Second, one of the purposes of learning Buddhism is to open up wisdom to solve all problems in the world and even in the world. The essence of wine is alcohol, and its main feature is to anesthetize people's nerves. If people drink a little more, they will not be able to maintain a rational state, and they will be more confused and upside down. From this point of view, they should not drink.

Third, but not completely inedible. The rules of Buddhism are very flexible, so we should grasp its core essence. Under certain circumstances, if you want to attract all living beings to learn Buddhism, you can also quit, not for your own lust for sex. Its principle is to benefit all beings and guide them to learn Buddhism, not for themselves.
