When there is a vegetarian, there are people making
vegetarian-engineering method to sell. And of course to increase sales and
profits, people promote the benefits of a vegetarian diet in order to increase
the number of people consuming vegetarian food. Here mention vegetarianism as a
social phenomenon in Europe and America, which only think about fasting in
Buddhism, and from the standpoint of general nutrition.
Vegetarianism in Buddhism:
Vietnam who often said that fasting is a practice required
by the monks and Buddhists. The monks have vegan, that is absolutely not in any
case be carnivorous fish. Depending believers wish that fasting one or more
days in a month or vegetarian. Strictly speaking, the requirement applies only
vegetarian monks Mahayana Buddhism, transmitted from China to, Mahayana
Buddhism called, the Theravada Buddhist monks, or Theravada, traditionally
begging actually, it is not obligatory fasting, but to eat the food by the
masses as grace given.
This discrepancy has led some researchers to explore
books, to see the Buddha's teachings on vegetarianism vegetarians are, to
assign to the left. The proof, of course, vary depending on the source texts
and depending on personal prejudice against vegetarianism.
Theravada Buddhism that Buddha was not a vegetarian, does
not question the savory vegetarian, and monks seeking alms goods received,
without distinction, the public contribution to the food offerings. Conversely
fasting is a practice of mandatory requirements in the classic Chinese Mahayana
Buddhism. Therefore, many people believe that vegetarianism is a particular
focus of Mahayana Buddhism. Really, we should know that some Japanese monks of
Mahayana Buddhism also eat meat. Also, a Tibetan Mahayana sect (red shirt) is
also eaten. Even some to death when the Dalai Lama to the United States
preaches when asked about the food nor savory vegetarian question. In the book
"Perspectives Regarding Buddhist Vegetarian" Tam Dieu authors wrote
that "fasting is not the characteristics of Mahayana Buddhism in general and
Chinese Mahayana Buddhism in particular." Noble Center has documented a
number of documents to confirm the "vegetarians had during the Buddha in
the world and flourished in the era of Asoka, the Indian emperor who ruled from
274 years to 232 years BC original".
Vegetarians and health:
Tam Dieu author has invoked scripture, just based on some
theoretical scientific literature and contemporary articles on ecology to
promote vegetarianism. This article is not intended that just want to put up
some thoughts on fasting, on the basis of personal knowledge about Buddhism, as
well as nutrition.
The Theravada Buddhist monk for that liberation is not due
where to eat, but from where three industrial pure body and mind. Export
vegetarians that do not heal themselves, comprise the sword, not the rule does
not hold any benefit. This argument is not much different from ordinary
thinking, "said right-vegetarians than vegetarians lie". This
so-popular theory is also slightly out taking into consideration all vegetarian
physician.
In contrast, according to Chinese Buddhism, vegetarianism is
part of the teachings of the. Liang Dynasty (6th century after Christ), the
king banned meat and fish in the palace banquet, urging people to vegetarianism
and prohibits killing animals in Taoism rituals. Ming Dynasty (16-17
centuries), monk Chau Hoang Van The advocates vegetarianism is strong, so some
have suggested that vegetarians starting this time. Advocating for requests
vegetarian in practice the law, there are many arguments in the Mahayana
sutras, as Lankavatara, Surangama, Mahaparinirvana? Vegetarianism is mainly
considered the implementation of killing precepts, and also the practice of
compassion.
Moreover, fasting is to avoid cannibalism, in which there
may be a relative of his stomach was hard under the laws of reincarnation
damnation. If that killing precepts and compassion does not only apply to
people but also to apply to all the species of worm is on, the carnivorous
creatures can not be apologetic. If absolutely believe in rebirth, as human
life or animal life fully customizable causal karma decision, it is clear that
also carnivorous animals eat human flesh. But the absolute confidence, as well
as the interpretation of Buddhist teachings vary, depending on the culture and
level of development of each nation as well as customized personal
understanding.
Tale has it that in the Tran dynasty in a party by Nguyen
Thanh Thien empress Comments treats both savory and vegetarian dishes, then Tuệ
Trung, who founded the Truc Lam Yen Tu Zen School Vietnam, has calmly eat fish.
Empress surprised asked: "Do you meditate that fish and meat became Buddha
stars are?" He smiled: "Buddha is Buddha, he is him. He did not need
to do the Buddha. Buddha did not need him." Sergeant Wisdom is a spiritual
level of enlightenment. His words are not the words of the Prince replied keep
gasoline. The predatory fish Tue Trung course totally contradicts the Mahayana
sutras. Where does truth? Fasting is a must, or salty foods is a must in the
Buddhist spiritual practice?
Nowadays, there have been cases in the temple vegetarian
meals full of dishes such as sausages, meat stock, steamed fish, fried shrimp?
made vegetarian. Material, true that this dish made of vegetables net, no fish.
But the spirit, the sense of eating sausages, meat stock, steamed fish? clearly
expressed in the attachment to the notion of conventional heavy body and mind,
not helpful at all for the religious. Compared to a Theravada Buddhist monk,
naturally welcome any public offerings of food, do not look so good attention
which, considered as one needs to eat normal and natural to live and practice,
he vegetarians with dishes prepared picky palates service, excellent taste (?),
may not be the place people closer to enlightenment. Say so nor to defend those
who deliberately exploit the idea "openness", "remains at the
heart tu" for which backsliding salty foods, your lie, dupe.
Vegetable And Nutrition:
Eat, originally was a natural requirement for survival, but
gradually became a major sex life interesting, and is one of the motivating
people struggling. From their living space to eat, it becomes hard for food.
Suffering in the search for food has had, eating the wrong size but also
because of becoming sick. In the circuit this thinking, if keeping food on the
table does not become an obsession, with the inclusion complex requirements
surrounding the sex was a step away. The Americans have a saying "You are
what you eat", suggesting that food affects on humans. Put simply, eat
more sugar added fat is easier obesity, cardiovascular disease or cancer, etc.
This question is often raised by the nutritionist, the purpose is to advise
people to notice about choosing healthy foods that avoid toxic foods appetizing
oil and appetizing.
The old people do not talk like the Americans, but also the
notion that the carnivorous animals usually creates fierce violence, such as
tigers, while the same is generally gentle herbivores like deer cattle. The
culture of the nomads breed, living by hunting and meat also features more
aggressive aggressive culture of the people living in agricultural seed
planting. For humans, the alcohol concentration is generally considered fatty
goat dishes bestial human agitation. And not surprisingly, is the desire to
seek spiritual person is bleeding sparrows, cobra blood, goat meat etc, but few
people find fruit to eat vegetables. In summary the food affects the body and
is important to the human spirit.
Many people, in fervor to promote vegetarianism, went to a
confirmed vegetarian place better and better as people eat salty (ie predatory
fish). In contrast, those who believe blindly not knowing many Western medicine
argue that the food fish is indispensable to make the body healthy. Really the
issue is not as simple as that. There are many Indians from small to large
vegetarian healthy and still not illness. There are many people who only eat
fish but everything illness sickness.
Generally, eating without properly, regardless of salt are
not good vegetarian. Particularly about vegetarianism, it can be confirmed that
the vegetarian food enough to give people the basic nutritional elements
necessary for the body, including carbohydrate, fat, protein, fiber and other
substances vitamins and mineral salts. Nowadays one has to distinguish three
types of vegetarians.
- The first type consists of agricultural products such as
vegetables, beans, nuts, fruits, eggs, milk and byproducts (such as butter,
cream, cheese).
- The latter also includes the food as above, except eggs.
- The third category consists of only fruit vegetables
without eggs and milk byproducts. Vietnam people before, because no livestock
development, dairy, and little less milk, and eggs are considered to have life,
so vegetarians in the third category.
In terms of science, just one egg cells in a nutrient
medium. If fertilized, the egg has recently become a fetus and developed into
creatures when favorable temperature incubation by nature or in the incubator.
A fact that industrial farming of chickens to lay eggs, the fertilized egg does
not have just one cell, like many other types of cells everyday. Generally,
vegetarian diet with dairy eggs not afraid malnutrition without knowing the
characteristics of each type of food to the use of options in accordance with the
appropriate rate.
Indeed, in the beans, especially soybeans, the protein,
particles such as sesame seeds (sesame), nuts are high in fat. If poor
vegetarian style old Vietnam mainly whole beans and vegetables without seeds
and byproducts (tofu, oil, milk, soy), the malnutrition is uncertain. In
contrast, the Vietnamese community in the US today, the way to prepare
vegetarian food often widely used oil, sesame (sesame), peanut, coconut, sugar
and so on to the delectable dishes, fleshy fat. Thus creating a balance diet,
not good for the body. The only reason for using fat and sugar too much, are
easy things cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Summary of it if known
characteristics of each kind of nutrients that vegetarian to vegetarian options
a balance according to the scientific knowledge, the vegetarian likely no
different nutrients vegetarians, but also advantages to help people calm down,
suitable for the quiet cultivation of the soul.
Vegetarianism and Spiritual Practice:
If invoked and interpreted every classic to say the Buddhist
monk is to be or not to be a vegetarian, then a right and wrong to find this
discussion will never end. Because as mentioned above, different texts
depending on the origin of Mahayana and Theravada. These arguments Mahayana and
Theravada are the ones own reasons. Buddhism again experienced a quiet period
of nearly three centuries after the Buddha passed making books as well as the
performance of different transmission inevitable. Besides the periodic
gathering of the disciples in terms of several hundred years after the Buddha
passed to discuss the rules have absolutely no consensus.
Here just like to present a practical
perspective on vegetarianism, non-school way, dogma. As summarized above,
vegetarian food is full of the qualities necessary for the needs of human
nutrition (protein, fat, carbohydrate, fiber, vitamins and minerals). So proper
vegetarian eating salty no different in terms of nutrition. Also vegetarian
food generally there are quiet influence on the human response,as opposed to foods of animal origin.
Overcoming this difficulty is a spiritual endeavor,
dismissed the ties of body and mind. However, as already described vegetarians
but also draw hope, is sausages, fish, meat, then this spirit makes people
trapped that reduce the loss of the meaning of vegetarian options.
Such views Buddhist layman gonna get yourself a proper attitude
toward vegetarianism on the path to body and mind at peace. A simplicity and
practical way, we can say that vegetarianism is a useful means of spiritual
practice.
