Vegetarian Resolution Event

Online Registration Form

On the birthday of Guan Yin Bodhisattva, let us emulate the Bodhisattva’s compassion in protecting all forms of life, and giving the gift of fearlessness by not killing and eating living beings. With the meritorious virtues of adopting a vegetarian diet, we pray for the world to be at peace and all warfare to cease, and for the worldwide pandemic to soon resolve.

For hundreds of thousands of years, eating the meat on your plate has brought about a deep animosity that is difficult to settle. If you want to know why there are calamities and wars in the world, just listen to the sounds from a slaughterhouse at midnight.

The wars occurring in the world have dependently arisen as caused by karma, the result of creating negative karma, and what we put into our mouths. In midst of the continuing crises in the world, and the strength of nature fighting back, we find the greatest warning to human civilization:

Change our ways of life, and be kind to all forms of life. The simplest way to start is to adopt a plant-based diet that brings out the flavour of purity and peace, compassionately protects all living beings, And conserves environmental resources. Start protecting our planet now!
We sincerely ask you to reach out to your friends and family, and encourage them to be vegetarian for 1 day, 3 days, 1 month, 3 months… or even for life. The names of the people who make a resolution will be announced during the Bathing the Buddha Ceremony.
