佛說佛名經 5.42

5.42

"Or with snares, poles, bars, pikes, halberds, bows, and crossbows, we have shot birds of the air and beasts of the field; or with dip-nets, drag-nets, casting-nets, and fishing lines, we have scooped up and dredged aquatic creatures—fish, softshell turtles, giant turtles, alligators, shrimp, clams, snails, mussels, and damp-dwelling sorts—leaving those of water, land, and sky with no place to hide or flee. Or we have raised chickens, pigs, cattle, sheep, dogs, swine, geese, and ducks to supply our own kitchens or sold them for others to butcher, causing their cries of agony not yet to cease while their feathers are plucked, scales damaged, heads severed from bodies, bones and flesh minced to pieces, flayed and butchered, roasted, burned, boiled, and broiled—imposing severe torment, bitter pain, and perverse cruelty upon the innocent. Merely to indulge a fleeting delight of the palate, the flavor obtained is exceedingly little, not exceeding three inches across the tongue, yet its karmic retribution and calamitous consequences endure for eternal kalpas. Sins such as these, today with utmost sincerity, we namas and perform kṣamā.
