  1. I will never understand how people who call themselves #Buddhist can eat “animal products”, as these clearly depend on #imprisonment, #exploitation, #abuse, and #murder of nonhuman beings – I call them #Navelgaze_Buddhists or #Wellness_Buddhists.

    The first two verses from Chapter 10, “Violence” of the #Dhammapada:

    129. All tremble at violence; all fear death. Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill.

    130. All tremble at violence; life is dear to all. Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill.
