    උන් වහන්සේ කවදාවත් දේශනා කරල නෑ මස් මාංශයෙන් වැළකී ඉන්න කියලා.
    වෙනකක් තියා දේවදත්ත තෙරුන් භික්ෂූන් මතස්‍ය මාංශයෙන් වැළකී සිටිය යුතුයැයි යෝජනා කළ විට එයත් ප්‍රතික්ෂේප කළා.

    උන් වහන්සේ දේශනා කළේ මස් කෑම හෝ නොකෑම තමන්ගේ කැමැත්තක් බවත් එය නිවන් මාර්ගය කෙරෙහි බලපෑමක් නොකරන බව.

    උන් වහන්සේ කවදාවත් මස් කෑම තහනම් කළේ නෑ.
    ‍උන් වහන්සේ නිතරම උත්සාහ කළේ ලෝක සත්වයා නිවන් මාර්ගයේ ගමන් කරවන්නයි.
    මස් නොකෑම ප්‍රතිපත්තියක් හැටියට අනුගමනය කිරීම උන් වහන්සේ අනුමත නොකළෙ එයින් නිවන් මාර්ගය ගැන ඇති අවධානය අඩු වෙන නිසයි.


    I also agree this , but we are civil ppl and these days we actually don't need meat.
    I am still vegeterian. and welcome others also to be vegs and please don't confuse
    the religon and veg concepts. why we should be vegs , because we are advanced
    beings so it's not civilized to eat other animals meat. and we can live without meat without no problem.But it will never helps to stop the animal cruvalty because nature
    itself is already a cruval place. But as human's as advanced beings we can think about it/ isn't it ? I'm pointing here about KFC , MC dollens like places......
    even not only Buddhists among muslims there are ppl who are pure vegs , because
    of the my reason.Even muslim teachings doesn't say "you should eat meat" like that.
    I think muslim religon have more rules on eating meat than Buddhists.

    so I'm asking a problem here, when I went to a food shop there's nothing shortees
    for a vegeterian.There are 20% of the sri lankans are vegs. and most non-vegs
    are critizing about being vegs. My answer to them is we are advanced human beings
    so we can live without eating meating without giving pain to some animal for our
    tasty. But please don't mix this with you're religon.

    I think that's a good point. So we are advanced human beings , so think about it. And
    there are places like KFC like shitt . you can't go and say to a lion to stop this cruvalty.
    But we are advanced human beings , so we have to think about it. Finally it's you're
    preference. And also we can't stop the whole nature's cruvalty by avoiding eating meat.
    but as advanced beings why should we eat meat? it shows how we uncivilized !

    I came upon this article in the Nation Newspaper... In brief it says its OK to eat meat like Beef, Chicken, Mutton, Fish, ect.

    This is the first time I've read anything like this & up to now I thought Buduhamudorowo had prohibited eating meat of any kind..Guess I was Wrong

    Buddha never asked to hurt anyone to satisfy your tongue's never dying wish to eat something tasty. Buddha said no animal killings and no cutting of trees even for your personal pleasure.

    mage adahasanam mekai machan, eth mama full article eka kiyewwe naha sry, e kale buduhamuduruwan saha anik bikshun wahansela minissu piliganwana ehema natnam daneta dena dewal prathikshepa kare naha. e nisa ewa walandanna una ( kanna ) meat or whteva. but eken kiyanne naha bouddayanta meat kana eka ok kiyala.
    eka nisa e prasnayedi matath kiyanna thiyanne, buduhamuduruwo mas kanna epa kiyalawath kanna kiyalawath deshana karala naha.
    but we all knw about panchashilaya nd karma
    "sathunta hirihara nikarami or sathun nomarami"
    ithin api meat kanawa kiyanne indirectly sathun maranawa kiyana eka neda? smbdy killing animals for food on purpose of our eating. thats da bottom line.
    nd wt goes aroun wt comes around​

    Well said... Budhu Dhahame kohewath rules daala nee!! But budu dhahama danna oni kenek dannawa paw wada monada? Pin wada monada kiyala? So Nothing else.. Api indirectly hari pawakata udawwak karanawa mass maalu kemen. So pawen gela wenna bee mona tharka demmath..
