When you practice Buddhism, you should be mindful of your actions. When your actions are pure, impure or perverse thoughts won’t arise. You should also keep your thoughts pure, because when you purify your thoughts, your body won’t crave the Seven Emotions and Six Desires

Doing good or bad deeds depends on a single thought. If you are deluded in one thought, there will be no limit to the wicked deeds that you can do. However, if you change your bad behavior, you will be able to accomplish any of the Four All-Embracing Virtues and Six Paramitas. You will thoroughly be a good person. You only have to pay attention and change your thoughts.

White rice or brown rice—which is more nutritious? A meat-based or plant-based diet—which is healthier? I hope that all you wise people will think about this carefully! Show kindness with your mouth by being vegetarian; by doing so, all lives will be lengthened. Acting in accord with the Buddha’s mind will bring you good children and grandchildren. You will enjoy eternal auspiciousness and prosperity.
