Master Hsing Yun on Buddhism, Killing & Bodhisattva Vows | VeggieDharma

(Chinese spoken and translated into English). Master Hsing Yun answers a question of a lady from Taiwan who observes the Bodhisattva precepts and keeps a vegetarian diet for many years, but still has to process non-veg food for her family. She sincerely feels bad about this and asks how she can repent.
Recorded at the University of the West in California, USA, at November 16, 2006.

Ehh, so if I don't agree with the actions that others require me to do.. I sound do them out of what.. duty.. and then the 'punishment' will only be small... what about telling the lady to tell her family... fine, then cook for yourselves... and thereby omit any collaraboration in killing...
