海濤法師慈悲語錄中英對照_006

發菩提心最基本要從嘴巴作起，廚房不要變成屠宰場，冰箱不要變成殯儀館，餐桌不要變成殺戮戰場，肚子不要變成動物的墳墓，以大悲心吃素，就是人我一體的實踐。

——海濤法師

The basic step towards developing Bodhicitta should begin with the mouth by preventing kitchens from turning into slaughterhouses, refrigerators into mortuaries, dining tables into battlefields, and stomachs into animal cemeteries. Becoming vegetarian with a compassionate motivation is fulfilling the practice of oneness with others.

--Venerable Master Hai Tao

(英譯／舊金山Phoebe)
