JAINISM AND BUDDHISM
fesh is not eatable by a Buddhist. If the corpse be burnt and also any other flesh be burnt, there would be no difference in their bad smells, therefore a Buddha monk wishing purity should not eat any Hesh.”
“योगाचाराणां-विद्याधराणा-विद्यासाधन मोक्षविघ्नकरत्वान्महायान संप्रस्थितानां कुलपुत्राणां कुलदुहितृणां च सर्व योगसाधनान्तराय करमित्यपि समनुपश्यतां महामते स्वपरात्म हितकामाय मांसं सर्वमभक्ष्यं बोधिसत्वस्य.”
“Yogâchârânam Vidyâdharâạâm Vidyasadhana: moksa vighna Karatvam mahâyâna samprasthitânâm Kulaputrânám Kula duhitrinâm cha sarva yoga sâdhanântarâ ya Kula mityapi sarnanu pasya tüm mahê mate svaparâtma hitakâmîya minsam sarva mabhaksyai bodhisattvasya."
“Because it is obstructive to the saints and the students in their efforts for liberation and knowledge, therefore the followers of the Great Path, the family sons and daughters fully know it to be obstructive in all the efforts for meditation. O wise man, all the flesh is not, therefore, eatable by a Buddhist who is desirous of having spiritual benefit to himself and to others.”
“क्रिमिजंतु प्रचुरकुष्टनिदानकोष्ठश्च भवति व्याधिबहुल न च प्रतिकूलसंज्ञां प्रतिलभते, पुत्रमांसभैषज्य वदाहारं देशयंश्चाहं महामते कथमेवनार्यजनसेवित मार्यजन विवर्जितमेव मनेकदोपावहमनेकगुह्य विवर्जितमनृषि भोजनप्रणीतं मकल्प्यं मांसरूधिराहारं शिष्येभ्योऽनुज्ञापयामि."
