"O wise man, neither flesh should be eaten nor murder should be done on that account; mostly for the sake of money, harmless living beings are killed : very few on account of other cause. It is painful that for the great desire of flesh, even men eat the human flesh, what to speak about the flesh of animals and birds etc. Mostly for the sake of deluding persons pained by the desire of eating Hesh, killers of birds, lambs and fish through their nets and machines kill birds, deer, fish etc., harmless creatures to gain money." .
