Share vegetarian food with you. Although we may not be able to see the changes in our bodies with the naked eye, instruments can see them. Share with you: this time, a microcirculation detector came to our store, and all our colleagues came to test it. Through the microscope, we can see that they all have heavy metals and toxins in their bodies, and their blood is sticky and their blood vessels are blocked. When I tested, I said that my constitution was cold and weak, but there were no heavy metals and few toxins in my body. The teacher asked me if I was a vegetarian, because vegetarian blood is cleaner. This contrast is very different. So sometimes we may not feel it, but vegetarian food is really good for our health. Therefore, non-vegetarian brothers, eat more and your health will get better and better.
Vegetarianism is conditional, and you can't just eat vegetarian dishes such as green vegetables and tofu. Bodhisattva told us to protect our bodies and let us practice on earth, not to let you eat your body without killing or being a vegetarian. Therefore, Bodhisattva is merciful and allows us to eat eggs, milk and dairy products, because many eggs can't hatch chickens, and there are many nutrients in them, so your body will gradually balance. The most important thing is to eat more soy products, including protein and soybean lecithin. For example, vegetarian chicken, soybeans, peanuts ... Many people only eat vegetables and radishes every day, and oil and water are scraped away. You can go to a vegetarian restaurant like Taiwan Province Province to buy vegetarian ham and duck, season and slice them yourself, and cook them with vegetarian dishes. Cooking is also important. You can think of all kinds of ways to cook, roast, stir-fry or make spring rolls ... Vegetarians should keep thinking of ways to eat, otherwise they will be too single and their health will collapse seriously in the long run. It doesn't matter if monks and nuns knock on wooden fish to chant Buddhist scripture and sweep the floor and eat tofu dishes. We must work. We must work. Because many people are vegetarian, they should eat peanuts, whole grains, beans, walnuts and chestnuts every day, which is very nutritious.
Vegetarianism-Cultivating Compassion
The director continued to tell you today, why should we learn Buddhism and be vegetarian? Why not kill animals? In fact, Bodhisattva has long told us that all beings have Buddha nature. What is sentient beings? All living beings have Buddha nature. For example, if our ancestors or our younger generation committed crimes, they will be reincarnated as beasts after death. At that time, if he was a dog, if you killed your dog, you actually killed a sentient being. Moreover, the Bodhisattva said that all sentient beings have Buddha nature and should be regarded as Buddha. 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 am a Buddha, you are not a Buddha. If you can believe this, you have enough commandments. In other words, I may already be a Buddha, or I used to be a Buddha, and you are the future Buddha, just as we call many people "Little Bodhisattva" now. If you can believe this, everyone believes that we can become Buddhas, and your precepts are enough. If you can respect all sentient beings and treat all sentient beings as Buddhas, your world and your quality 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 soy 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. Like people, monkeys are kept in small cages. When those little monkeys saw a man come in, everyone covered their eyes with their hands. Because the killing began immediately, they dipped the cage into the water and the little monkey died. When these little monkeys saw their colleagues killed like this, they had no choice but to cover their eyes. 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,10 million 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, and we are used to killing people, so we must understand that we can't kill people. Including offering sacrifices to the gods and ancestors, raising relatives and entertaining guests, and not doing meat-free rituals. These are all thoughts of the past. I think this gift can only be made of meat, not without meat. Think about it, it is extremely tragic to raise relatives and entertain guests, thinking that all sacrifices to God and ancestors are to exchange meat and human life for your 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 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, which may be our parents, brothers, wives and dependents; Think about it. You used to be your relative. If they are reincarnated and take the road of animals, you are still taking revenge and killing. 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 evil.
Dear listeners, as we all know, Buddha's great compassion shows everything, not only to people, but also to all sentient beings, so we should avoid killing. We can't kill some small creatures, such as shells, clams, pig teeth, tripe and liver. Eating these things will make people uneasy, because they are eaten in your body, because what you eat has changed from animals to humans. For example, I used to be a good person. After my thoughts were filled with the theory of hooligans and robbers, I was no longer 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. You have to think that 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 we couldn't kill anything. You know, although people and animals have different forms and different soul consciousness, their pain points are the same. They are all creatures, just like an ignorant child and a sensible adult, they are also human beings. You can't treat them as foreign objects. Therefore, every animal, including advanced animals such as human beings, is mentally sensitive, that is to say, a spiritual object has IQ and something to understand. We pay attention to five ethics and eight virtues, that is, we don't let people kill, steal or indulge in debauchery. What we are talking about is that we don't let people harm others and ourselves. We are talking about getting along sincerely, caring for animals and caring for people. Therefore, killing their meat, that is, after you kill animals, eating the meat of those animals yourself will give you what you deserve. Think 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, those who harm people and things must be mediocre and extinct, that is to say, if an ancestor does not accumulate virtue, it will definitely harm his next generation; If the ancestors are wicked, it will definitely affect his next generation. The director has an audience. His ancestors have killed people, and all his children are mentally ill. Therefore, it is necessary to understand that "the survivors in Qing Yu are celebrating the remnants of the victims", that is to say, you have a little disaster and a little happiness now 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, as parents, we 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. Isn't it because their mother and children came to the earth that they suffered? A child came into this world and suffered so much that he was looked down upon by others at school. When he studies, others can learn, but he can't. He looks half big and half small. I knew there was something wrong with my brain when I said it. You have caused your children a lifetime of pain. That's what you did.
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, and he will bear these great disasters forever and leave them to his descendants. Listeners and friends, medicine has now proved that vegetarians will be peaceful, as beautiful as flowers and plants, as long and as high as 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. If the meat is not kept 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 in Foshan, Guangdong Province was run over by a car. None of the 10 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 her. 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, at the expense of others. And those scavengers, those old mothers, their conscience still exists, which is why those who have been repaired in their previous lives have a blessing in this life, while those who have a blessing in this life will not be repaired in this life, and there will be 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 a child from a poor family be a master early? Because he knows that money is hard to come by.
