Regarding 'seeing \[him\], they flee': even a dove pursued by a hawk did not lose its terror under Śāriputra's shadow; how much more so in the position of one who eats them? Regarding 'eating meat brings boundless offenses': as in the Sūtra on the Causes and Conditions of the Omniscient Brightness Sage Not Eating Meat, it extensively illustrates the faults of eating it. That sage was Maitreya himself; when he attains Buddhahood, he will prohibit meat-eating as a major offense, fully as explained therein. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.88](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.88) - [Next: 2.90](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.90) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815~en-mt.2.89) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [梵網經菩薩戒本疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1813.4.73) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.89) · Pramāṇa
