2.102

答曰:「求醫服藥,初不相妨,然藥者只能醫病,不能醫命,命若盡時,藥豈奈何?若殺物命為藥,切不可也!」

He answered: "Seeking doctors and taking medicine does not inherently conflict. However, medicine can only treat illness; it cannot treat one's lifespan. When life has run its course, what can medicine do? If one kills living creatures to make medicine, that is strictly prohibited!"
