Buddhism advocates vegetarianism, not because plants are lifeless, but because it advocates not killing. In fact, it originally means not killing indiscriminately, not not killing. The reason why Buddhism advocates vegetarianism is not because you think it does not kill, but because of animal food. It is easier to arouse people's appetite. In fact, you will understand just by thinking about it. The Buddhist precepts were originally used to resist the endless desires of human beings. The Buddha believed that people's evil thoughts are actually caused by various desires, and purely rely on people's It is very difficult to reduce desires with willpower and moral values, so it is necessary to provide material help. In terms of eating, of course some people do not like to eat meat and prefer to be vegetarian, and there are also those who prefer fruits to meat. Most of them People still like to eat meat, so when they think of delicious food, of course it is big fish and meat. Therefore, the so-called vegetarian diet is to reduce the desire for food, and advocating ahimsa is to strengthen this concept. Another example is not to be close to women. If If we don’t even approach women, wouldn’t humans become extinct? This is of course not the original intention of the Buddha. Not having sex with women is also to control sexual desires. It is easier to explain if you don’t drink alcohol. Alcohol can cause sexual incest. It is also said that alcohol strengthens people’s courage. Many things are not caused by drunkenness. Well, drinking will cause certain desires of people to expand rapidly, so you should stop drinking. There is a story in Islam. A young man was caught by the devil, and the devil asked him to kill, rape, or drink alcohol. Otherwise, he would be killed. He, the young man thought, of course he couldn't do murder or rape, so he would choose to drink in a bar, which should be fine. However, after drinking, he killed and raped again. He did all three things, which shows the harm of alcohol.

Therefore, the precepts of Buddhism are used to control people’s desires. People who don’t understand why should not belittle themselves
