We should also get rid of the bad habit of eating meat. As an "experienced person", he naturally adopted many methods to overcome "lust" in order to achieve this situation. The following useful suggestions are the same as those adopted by most vegetarians. If you really have friends who believe in abstinence from vegetarianism, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
First, buy a book that comprehensively introduces the concept of vegetarianism and two or three books about vegetarian cooking. Spending money on books is a necessary investment, which can form a good habit that will benefit you for life. You can be more energetic, live longer and save more money, because vegetarian food is generally half cheaper than non-vegetarian food. Then you should carefully understand from the book why the scholar is good at being a vegetarian, and remember these truths and remind yourself often. Then learn to cook one or two vegetarian dishes you like according to the menu, which will be the main substitute for meat dishes in your past dinner. Usually buy as many vegetarian raw materials as possible, increase the types of vegetarian food, and improve the interest of vegetarianism. There are many meat-like vegetarian materials made of bean products, gluten and mushrooms, which can often be bought instead of meat, such as delicious vegetarian chicken, vegetarian duck, vegetarian fish, vegetarian ham and vegetarian assorted dishes.
It's a good idea to attend a vegetarian association or a similar salon party. Try every means to exchange experiences and experiences with others frequently. If there are religious people, or often go to temples to burn incense and listen to scriptures, or get close to monks and virtues you trust, or work with vegetarian old practitioners to understand the truth of killing and karma. In China, vegetarianism for religious reasons is the most common phenomenon and the most effective and shortest path among all vegetarianism.
Remember, we used to eat meat for so many years, and now it's not easy to switch to vegetarian food at once, but it's not as difficult as we thought. As long as you have a direction in mind, it is a happy thing to take a step forward in that direction every day. We didn't eat vegetarian dishes in the past, so there were many nutritious and delicious vegetarian dishes, and I didn't know there were many delicious high-protein vegetarian dishes. Now that you are a vegetarian, suddenly there are so many vegetarian ingredients in front of you that you will be surprised and at a loss. At this time, the book of vegetarian cooking recipes comes in handy. You will find that learning to be vegetarian is much easier than you think, and you will soon learn to cook fresh, nutritious and delicious dishes. Later, when you look back at your vegetarian course, you find that this change is really much easier than you thought.
Of course, if your habit of eating meat is really heavy and you still want to eat meat after working hard for a long time, then please spend an afternoon visiting a slaughterhouse. I believe the blood, cruelty, filth and horror there will haunt you like a nightmare. So, you will try again until you succeed.
Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it. In fact, many vegetarians say that quitting meat is as common as quitting smoking, even easier than quitting smoking. Because the result of quitting smoking is only to get rid of a bad habit, and it can't gain greater spiritual significance. The transformation process of vegetarianism will bring you more and more happy spiritual liberation. Besides being healthier, you will be filled with joy because you are committed to the ideal of love. As you know, vegetarianism is a natural diet of human beings, which has little damage to the earth's environment. Vegetarianism makes people realize that all life is precious and dignified, and you are on the road of witness living in harmony with the world.
