一切智光明仙人慈心因緣不食肉經 1.20

Language
Classical Chinese

1.20

「『寧當然身破眼目,不忍行殺食眾生。
諸佛所說慈悲經,彼經中說行慈者,
寧破骨髓出頭腦,不忍噉肉食眾生。
如佛所說食肉者,此人行慈不滿足,
常受短命多病身,迷沒生死不成佛。』

"'Better to burn one's body and destroy one's eyes / Than to bear killing and eating sentient beings. / The sūtras of loving-kindness and compassion spoken by all Buddhas, / In those sūtras it is said that one who practices loving-kindness / Would rather break the bones and marrow and expose the brain / Than bear eating meat and consuming sentient beings. / As the Buddha has said, one who eats meat, / This person's practice of loving-kindness is incomplete; / They will always receive a short life and a body full of illness, / Sunk and bewildered in saṃsāra, not attaining Buddhahood.'"
