If you want to eat a vegetarian diet, you should match it according to the nutrition of the vegetarian diet, which is very beneficial to your health and will not cause malnutrition. Here's a post about the meaning of conversion for your reference:
People who convert to Sambo have the following questions:
First, conversion is not a vegetarian, not a precept, nor a monk. Converting to Sambo is just an oath to believe in Sambo for life, and vowed not to change their beliefs.
Second, you can worship God, ancestors and pagans when you convert to the Three Treasures, but you should know that respect is different from conversion, respect is politeness, and conversion means putting your mind, body, thoughts and beliefs into the Three Treasures.
thirdly, the conversion to Sambo is not a one-time, one-time or one-time conversion, and the conversion is a lifetime. Yoga precepts: it is a violation of the precepts if you don't convert for one day. Conversion is not only conversion to Buddhism, but also conversion to the Sangha people, not to individuals.
After an old friend converts, he should use Buddhism to regulate his body and mind, strengthen his faith, change his temperament, turn past greed into joy, hatred into compassion, laziness into bravery and diligence, negative pessimism into positive optimism, and then seek the five precepts at home, Baguan Pavilion precepts, etc., so as to enhance his belief level and plant the seeds of interest in Bodhi.
the meaning of conversion
conversion means "conversion" and "reliance", and it also contains the meaning of relief and rescue. Conversion refers to turning to the Three Treasures, relying on the Three Treasures of Buddhism, Dharma and Monks. With the blessing and care of the three treasures, the endless wheel of life and death can be stopped, and all fears can be avoided, so that all worries and sorrows can be cared for and relieved.
People in the world can get material life by relying on gold and silver wealth. If we can rely on the Buddhist monk "Bao", we can get the stability of spiritual sublimation.
The book "The Way to Becoming a Buddha" says: "All sentient beings, from the past to the present, from the present to the future, have been floating and sinking in the sea of suffering in the course of life after life, and they urgently need to rely on the boat navigation of Sambo to reach the other shore. However, all beings are stupid, don't know how to convert, some know how to seek conversion, but they mistakenly believe in evil teachers' heresy, or even infatuate with the world's treasures, power, family, life, etc., but they don't know that the property is owned by five families. When there is a flood or fire, they meet thieves, evil kings, or give birth to unscrupulous children, the wealth will soon become empty, and the lofty power will also be lost. For example, it is recorded in the Classic of the King of Dingsheng: The King of Dingsheng Wheel unified the four continents, rose to heaven, and ruled the Heavenly Palace with the Emperor Shi * * *, and eventually he inevitably fell to earth and died of sorrow. Dear family members, once impermanence comes, they should also be separated; Moreover, where there is life, there is death, so life is not enough, and the country and society are always in the process of chaos control. Therefore, all this is not a real place to convert, so there is a saying that "conversion is everywhere, and the three treasures are the most auspicious."
On the Great Bodhisattva of Ada Dharma, Volume 34 states: "People are forced by fear, and they turn to mountains, gardens, jungles and solitary trees. This conversion is not a victory, and this conversion is not honorable. If you don't convert, you can get rid of all the sufferings. All those who return to Buddhism and to monks according to law, in the four noble truths, observe with wisdom, know the sufferings, know that they will never surpass all the sufferings, know the eight sacred ways, and be happy and hidden from nirvana. This refuge is the best, and this refuge is the most honorable. Therefore, you will be converted, and you can get rid of all the sufferings.
this conversion is based on deep confidence that the three treasures of Buddhism, Dharma and Monk are really the real conversion places, and you can get all kinds of merits from them; Knowing that Sambo has such merits, he made a vow to be a Buddhist disciple and believed in it. He begged Sambo's Weide to bless him and take his body and mind to Sambo, and he no longer believed in heavenly demons and heretics.
Volume 1 of the Mahayana Chapter of Righteousness says, "Return to the refuge, so it is called refuge. Return to the phase, such as the son returns to the father; In accordance with the meaning of fu, such as the people in accordance with the king, such as fear in accordance with the brave.
generally speaking, conversion is faith. I hope to receive external help and get help from others. This is a religion of others. It is of course meaningful to convert to Buddhism, but in addition, there are places where foreign teachers are not allowed, because the deepest meaning and ultimate goal of conversion is to convert to one's own self-mind and self-nature. That is, the Buddha taught his disciples at the nirvana meeting the true meaning of "self-reliance, dharma-reliance, and no difference-reliance". This clearly shows that disciples should rely on self-reliance, study according to the orthodox method, and become Buddhists by themselves according to their own Buddha nature. Therefore, one's own body and mind is the Dharma Nirvana. Being able to have such an understanding is the true meaning of conversion.
Those who convert to the Three Treasures, if they get a panacea, can cure the heart disease of greed and ignorance; Such as lights, candles, stars and moons, can guide us astray; If you sail in a bitter sea, you can get rid of the bitter sea of life and death; If the poor get treasure, it can solemn our body and mind.
Volume 14 of "All Give Up" says: "Can converting to the Three Treasures relieve people's sufferings?
Volume 1 of the Mahayana Righteousness Chapter also points out three purposes of converting to the Three Treasures:
1. To stay away from the evil and unkindness of life and death.
2, in order to be born nirvana.
3. For the benefit of all beings.
the sutra of the precepts of Youposai says, "In order to break through all kinds of hardships, except for troubles, I am subjected to the joy of supreme silence, so I converted to the Three Treasures by karma.
The Prajna Sutra says, "All saints are named after the law of inaction, and inaction means that there is no other reason for omission. As a result, the three treasures are always alive and are not bullied by the world law, so they are called treasures, just as the treasures in the world are valued by all beings. Today, the three treasures belong to all the students, and the three times seven people return to them.
The Book of Good Life says: "If a person returns home after three times, the results will be inexhaustible, such as the four treasures, which the people of the whole country can't carry out in seven years. Those who convert to the Three Treasures are more blessed than others.
< p Buddha said: Ananda! It is better to be a good man and a good woman, and to say this with a pure heart: I am going to the Buddha, to the law, and to the monk. The merits obtained are better than those of the previous ones, which are hundreds of times and thousands of times, and cannot be counted, which is beyond the reach of words.
"Miscellaneous agama" says: "He and Xu Daling are converted to heaven for life. Those who are pregnant are their children, and they are subject to three self-returns; After being born, you have knowledge and opinions, and you will be converted to three religions. A guest with a handmaiden is pregnant with a child, so it is taught. If you buy a handmaiden, those who can accept three conversions and five precepts will buy it, and those who can't, don't buy it. Even begging for loans and raising interest rates is subject to three conversions, and then with them. If there are three treasures, from the Buddha, it is said that the name curse is the birth of heaven. Buddha's words: Good! If the Tathagata has supreme knowledge, it is convenient to judge and know, and everyone will be born. Therefore, it is known that the conversion to the Three Treasures has the greatest merit and has to be accepted.
There is a record in the Analogy Classic of French Sentences: "Once upon a time, Indra's five virtues left the body, and five failures appeared together, knowing that his life was exhausted. Now he is going to fall into a beast and get a donkey's fetus in a family whose business is smelting pottery. Indra immediately rushed to the Buddhist temple, kowtowed as a gift, and surrendered himself to the Buddhist monks. Before he got up, his god knowledge had reached the belly of Taojia donkey. At that time, because the donkey was not tied with ropes, it destroyed the blank during the action, and the owner whipped it, causing abdominal pain and instantly injuring the fetus. Its gods were immediately returned to the original body, and the five virtues were also prepared, and it was restored to the Emperor of Heaven. At that time, the Buddha said that Indra knew the importance of impermanence, the change of sin and happiness, and the root of rise and fall. From then on, he was happy to believe in the three treasures, so he got the Sutra Road.
In addition, the volume of Old Miscellaneous Metaphors records: "In the past, when the Buddha was the mother, there was a day when a man's life was exhausted. After his death, he was detained in the next life and exhausted the country, and he was born in the womb of a sow suffering from scabies. At that time, there was nothing he could do about it. One day, someone told him that when he went to ask for help from the Buddha, he immediately went to the Buddha's place to pay tribute. Buddha told heaven and man: "If you want to get rid of the pig, you should convert to the Three Treasures. For three days, heaven and man obeyed the Buddha's advice and turned to refuge at dusk. Seven days later, the life span of heaven and man was exhausted, because he had converted himself and gave birth to Viye to leave the country as his eldest son.
from the above, we can know that the merits of conversion are enormous, so all living beings should convert to the three treasures. With the blessing of the three treasures, we can purify the body and mind, inspire good causes and good karma, accomplish everything, find back the value of life, re-recognize the precious and pure nature of ourselves, and develop the Tathagata, equal dharma and pure sincerity of every living being.

life and faith
every religion urges people to have faith, but what should they believe in? The ancients said: there is a proper way. Good birds also know how to choose wood to live in, and loyal ministers also know how to be an official with a clear monarch, not to mention faith, but also choose a good object. Then, what conditions should we have for the object we believe in? This problem can't be ignored.
(1) Faith is real
When we choose the object of faith, we should examine whether it really exists. For example, we choose to believe in Buddhism, and the founder of Buddhism, Sakyamuni Buddha, does exist. The Buddha was born in a country, raised his parents, had brothers and relatives, and even recorded his becoming a monk, practicing and becoming a Taoist. The deeds of the Buddha are clearly recorded in history. Sakyamuni Buddha is not an imaginary figure, a god made up out of thin air; Nor is it a fairy who comes and goes without a trace. In other words, the object we Buddhists believe in can stand up to textual research in history. So, what should we believe in? We should believe in the real object.
(2) People with high moral beliefs
When we make friends, we should make friends with people with high moral character and holy personality, because they can guide us to be good and upward. The ancients said, "Those who have no friends are not as good as themselves. He also said, "Water flows downwards, and people climb up. "If the object we believe in wants us to kill and harm others, it will be harmful to believe in him instead of helping. We must know, the object of my belief, is his virtue clean? Is his compassion sufficient? Is his personality perfect? If he has it, then such an object is worthy of our belief and conversion. Sakyamuni Buddha is a awakened person with perfect deeds. He has three virtues: wisdom, morality and kindness. His morality is perfect and pure. Following this natural mentor can make our morality higher and our personality more perfect.
(3) People with strong belief ability
We need crutches as props when climbing mountains, and we also need a powerful crutch as our crutches in our lives. Since childhood, we have accepted the knowledgeable support of teachers, so that we can gradually avoid being a child; The object of our belief must also be the knowledge of great goodness that can measure and consciously perceive people, so as to guide us to the right path. The Buddhist Scripture says: "I am like a good guide, guiding others to be good;" I am like a good doctor, responding to illness and medicine. "I believe that a good guide can take the bright road and reach the destination; I believe that a good doctor's diagnosis and treatment can get Akada medicine to treat troublesome diseases. Why are benevolent sages, heroes and ordinary people willing to accept his leadership? Mainly because of his strong ability. The lion can be the king of beasts, and Dapeng can be a bird.
