Releasing and believing in Buddha: learning Buddha's releasing and vegetarian experience (picture)

放生信佛感应：学佛放生吃素亲身体会（图）

This is a true story from the Chinese Buddhist website. The protagonist in the story tells people through his own experience: how important it is to abstain from killing and release animals

-----Zhuge Changqing

This is an article written by a Buddhist friend named doing good:

From my birth to now, I have lived in a coastal city in the easternmost part of Shandong. The sea is on three sides and the mountain is on one side. From the record, we can see that people pick up or catch conch, clam, oyster, sea cucumber, crab and so on when the tide is ebbing (we call it chasing the sea).

I like to catch the sea since I was young. I can't catch it every day. I have to wait for the tide to ebb. I remember that I often go with my classmates. Sometimes I don't go home after school. I just run to the seaside and "catch" a lot of sea things. Go home and cook it, and throw it away if you can't finish it. It won't hurt.

After taking part in the work, I still have the habit of catching up with the sea. I go there when I have time in my spare time. Sometimes, in order to catch up with the tide, they sneak out before it is time to get off work. At that time, our population was small and seafood was not expensive. Going to the sea is not to eat Shanghai fresh food. It is mainly interesting, fun and addictive. Sometimes when I pick up more and grab more, I give them to others. They are very happy to accept my "fruits of labor". I am very happy. If you go swimming in the sea in summer, you can also pick up a lot of clams and sea cucumbers.

Every time I go to the sea, my hands and feet will be injured slightly or seriously. I will take some emergency things such as bandages or gauze when I go to the sea. Especially when catching crabs, the hands are most vulnerable to injury. I don't dare to go into the deep water. When the water is out of Shifeng, it will be exposed. I will catch crabs in Shifeng. The crab runs very fast and can't catch it when it runs into Shifeng. I use a very long steel wire with a sharpened tip. No matter where the crab runs, I can fork it with a steel wire. The ten legs of the crab dragged out moved wildly. At that time, I didn't know that the crab would also hurt. The crabs caught in this way are generally small. Take them home and wash them, add various seasonings and stir them in the flour, and then put them in the oil pan to fry until they are cooked. Some crabs are still moving before entering the pot! At that time, I didn't think it was killing animals at all. Some people praised me for my diligence. Even now, people here don't think there is anything wrong with this kind of killing. When you eat, you need to buy live ones. There are many people who don't need to cook crabs and soak them in wine. They are called drunken crabs.

Every year at the seaside here, we can drown several people who are chasing the sea. People just think that they are unlucky, and they do not arouse deeper vigilance.

I have eaten a lot of seafood since I was young. I have formed the habit of not eating fish and shrimp. If there are prawns and crabs, I will not eat them. At that time, I had a lot of diseases, especially the stomach disease was very serious. I made a lot of mistakes every day and every day, and the pain was really fatal. It is common to catch a cold. It is not called illness. Laryngitis, pharyngitis and tracheitis all torment me very much, and chronic measles is always with me. Later, I found that when I ate shrimp or crabs, it was very painful to find measles.

I went to the hospital to see a doctor and asked the doctor if it was caused by eating fish and shrimp allergy. The doctor said no, and said who doesn't eat fish and shrimp? It's okay to eat fresh fish and shrimp. Tell me not to eat salted fish. It's not good. At that time, there was no refrigerator, so many fish and shrimps were flooded with salt because they were afraid of being damaged. After submerging, it can be dried in the sun. You can also put it in that way and eat it now and steam it now.

When I didn't hear the Buddha dharma, I was really a pitiful person who drank bitterness and ate poison all day. It is often just after seeing a doctor and taking an injection, and then eating fish and shrimp, eating fish and shrimp, and then taking medicine. When you are better, go to the sea again.

amitabha! Fortunately, I can smell the Buddha Dharma in my lifetime, so I'm sure to go to hell. I sincerely thank several good friends for introducing the benefits of learning and chanting Buddha to me. I got this priceless treasure, which has changed my life since then.

After believing in Buddhism and learning Buddhism, especially when I saw what was said in the Sutra of the Earth, I never dared to eat fish and shrimp again, and suddenly stopped eating them. If you don't eat for a long time, you will still slander when you smell the smell. So I comforted myself in my heart, eat less, eat Sanjing fish and meat, as long as I don't eat live food anymore. Strange to say, it may be the blessing of Buddha and Bodhisattva. It's OK to eat it in the mouth, but it turned up in the stomach just after it arrived. The stomach is extremely uncomfortable. It will be good if you spit it out or excrete it. After several times of this, we can't eat any more.

Because my family doesn't believe in Buddhism, I'm too lazy to cook for myself alone, so I have to eat meat with vegetables, fish and shrimp. Later, the meat side vegetables can't be eaten, and the lard in the vegetables can't be eaten; I can't eat the lard in the dessert. So you have to cook for yourself.

It's not too long to eat all vegetables. I unknowingly recovered from various diseases without treatment. Those diseases mentioned above have never been committed again. The benefits of learning Buddhism are really incredible. Several years have passed, and the money in my medical book has hardly been spent. Before that, I knew almost all the doctors in the hospital. I knew not only their names, but also their residence and home conditions. Two years ago, the hospital was expanded and the door was changed. I went to the hospital to see my friends, but I didn't know how to get into the hospital.

Now think about my killing karma is too serious. I repent myself every day. The only way is to release my life. As long as I go to the vegetable market and see all the sea food, I can't wait to buy it all and set it free. However, my economic ability is limited, so I can only do my best. Buy more if you have more money, and buy less if you have less money. It is better to randomly introduce the benefits of learning Buddhism and vegetarianism to my relatives and friends at any time. So I often advise others to be vegetarian and chant Buddhism.

How can I remember posting here? This afternoon, I saw an old employee who had retired for many years. After talking about their recent situation, I learned that she was very ill and was ill all over. She said, "How come life is better now, but the body is getting worse?" I advised her to take a vegetarian diet and tell her my experience of getting better from my vegetarian diet. She said that now the children are older and the economy is more comfortable. She likes seafood best. The worse you are, the more often you eat. You should increase nutrition.

She knew that I was sick before, and when she saw what I was like now, she believed and said that she would listen to me and start to be vegetarian, so I am very happy today, and another person began not to kill!

amitabha! If only all people in the world were vegetarian, then there would be no need to buy animals to set free, and no one would catch or fish or breed, and no one would kill again, and the world would be peaceful!

Zhuge Changqing: The experience of this Buddhist friend shows that there must be a magical feeling and a good fate when you release your life and do good deeds. According to the Supreme Court's induction, there is no way to disaster or fortune, but people call themselves. All is karma.

Don't do any evil, and do all good. Persistence and responsiveness.

Bless all the people in the world who are destined to meet their needs, the heavenly officials will bless them, the cause will take off, and the source of wealth will expand!

For more articles on release, vegetarian diet and charity, please see Zhuge Changqing's Sina blog album article:

Don't do any evil, follow all good deeds, and continue to release life. As long as we continue to release, give food, chant the Buddha's name and return carefully, there will be magic induction in three days or three years. The following is the basic knowledge of Buddhist release. Please take a careful look at the friends who are releasing and giving food for the first time, especially the ones who have to turn back.

   这是一位来自中华佛教网的一个真实故事，故事中主人公以自身的经历告诉人们：戒杀放生意义多么重大........

                                ----- 诸葛长青

　　这是一位名字叫做行善的佛友亲自写的文章：

   我（行善）从出生到现在，一直住在山东最东端的一个海滨城市。三面怀海，一面靠山。从记事就看见人们在退潮时（我们叫赶海），或拾或抓海螺、蛤、海蛎子、海参、螃蟹等。
　　我从小就喜欢赶海，不是天天都能赶，要等海水退潮才行。记得常和同学一起去，放了学有时候不回家，直接跑到海边，“赶”到很多的海物。回家煮熟了吃，吃不完就扔了，不会心痛。
　　参加工作以后，仍然有爱赶海的习惯，业余时间有空就去。有时候为了赶上潮水，还没有到下班的时间就提前偷着跑出来。那时我们这里的人口少，海产品并不贵。去赶海并不是为了能吃上海鲜，主要是有趣、好玩，很有瘾。有时候拾的、抓的多了就送给别人，人家接受我的“劳动果实”都很高兴。我心里也就很高兴。夏天到海里去游泳，脚下踩到的蛤、海参等，也能拾到不少。
　　每次去赶海，手和脚或轻或重总会受点伤，去赶海时会带些创可贴或纱布等应急的东西。特别是在抓螃蟹时手最容易受伤。我不太敢往深水去，等海水退出石逢就露出来了，就在石逢里抓螃蟹。螃蟹跑得很快，跑到石逢里面就抓不到了。我就用很长的一根钢丝，一头磨的尖尖的，无论螃蟹跑到那里，我都能用钢丝把它给叉住。拖出来螃蟹十只腿乱动，那时的我根本就不知道螃蟹也会疼的。这样抓到的螃蟹一般都不大，拿回家洗干净，加上各种佐料在面粉里搅拌好后，放在油锅里炸熟，入锅前有的螃蟹还在动！那时的我，根本就不认为这是在杀生，还有人夸我勤快。就是现在我们这里的人，也不认为这种杀生有什么不对。吃的时候专门要买活的，还有好多人螃蟹不用煮用酒浸泡一下就好，叫酒醉蟹子。
　　每年我们这里的海边，能会淹死几个赶海的人，人们只是认为他们倒霉，没有引起更深的警觉。
　　我从小到大吃的海鲜非常多，养成了没有鱼虾就吃不下饭的习惯。如果有爬虾和螃蟹之类我就不吃饭，专门吃这些东西。那时侯我的病很多，尤其胃病很严重，三天两头犯，一疼起来真要命。感冒是常事，那都不叫是病了。喉炎、咽炎、气管炎都把我折磨得很痛苦，慢性寻麻疹常年陪伴着我。后来我发觉一吃虾或螃蟹之类，寻麻疹就奇痒难受。
　　我去医院看病问医生是不是吃鱼虾过敏引起的，医生说不是，并说谁不吃鱼虾？吃新鲜的鱼虾没有事，叫我不要吃咸鱼，咸鱼不好。在那个时候没有冰箱，鱼虾多了就用盐淹起来，因为怕坏了放的盐很多，很咸的。淹好后晒干，也可以就那样放着，现吃现蒸。
　　我未闻到佛法时，真的是可怜悯者，整天在饮苦食毒。常常是刚看完医生打完了针，回家后又接着吃鱼虾，吃完了鱼虾，接着吃药。等身体好点了，又去赶海。
　　阿弥陀佛！幸亏能在有生之年闻到了佛法，要不下地狱是肯定的。衷心感谢几位善友把学佛念佛的好处介绍给我，我得了这无价之宝，从此也改变了我的人生。
　　信佛学佛后，特别是看到《地藏经》上面讲的，鱼虾肉我是再也不敢吃了，突然一下子不吃了。时间长了不吃，闻到那股味道嘴还是谗。于是就在心里自我安慰，少吃点吧，吃三净鱼肉也行，只要不再吃活的就没有事。说来也怪，也许是佛菩萨加持的吧，吃到嘴里还行，可是刚到了胃里就往上翻着恶心。胃难受极了，吐出来或排泄出去，就好了。经过几次这样的情况，确实不能吃了。
　　因为家里的人不信佛，我也懒得单独为自己做菜，那就只好吃肉边素，鱼虾是不吃了。再后来肉边素也不能吃了，菜里面放的猪油都不行；做的点心里面放的猪油，这个点心我也不能吃。这样就得单独为自己做菜吃。
　　吃全素的时间不算太长，不知不觉我的各种疾病竟不治而愈。上面讲的那些病再也没有犯过。学佛给我带来的好处真实不可思议。几年过去了，我的医疗本上的钱几乎没有花过。这以前，医院里的医生差不多我都认识，好多医生我不但知道他们的名字，连住处、家里的情况都清楚。两年前医院扩建，把门头换了，我去医院看朋友，都不知道该怎么进医院。
　　现在想想我的杀业太严重了，天天在忏悔自己，唯一的方法就是得去放生。我现在只要走到菜市场上，看到那么些活蹦乱跳的海物，就恨不能全买下来去放生，可是经济能力有限，只能尽力而为。钱多了就多买点，钱少就少买，还是要随时随机的把我学佛吃素的好处，介绍给我的亲朋好友为好。所以我就常劝别人吃素念佛。
　　怎么想起来在这里发帖子呢？今天下午，我见到单位已经退休了好多年的一位老职工，聊起了各自近期的情况，才知道她的身体很不好，浑身上下都是病。她说“怎么现在生活好了，身体却越来越不好了？”我就劝她吃全素，把我自己吃素身体的病全好了的经验告诉她。她说现在孩子都大了，经济也宽余了，就是最爱吃海鲜。身体越不好越常吃，要增加营养。
　　她知道我以前身体有病，看到我现在的样子，她信了，说要听我的也开始吃素，所以我今天很高兴，又有一个人开始不杀生了！
　　阿弥陀佛！但愿天下的人都吃素，那也就用不着买动物放生了，也就没有人去抓或捕捞或养殖了，也没有人再去杀生了，天下也就太平啦！
