Besides touching on what an ideal life should be, a vegetarian proposition also shows the essence of reality in our living environment. Therefore, being a vegetarian cannot be discussed from only a partial standpoint, but should be discussed with facts. The category of being a vegetarian is diverse and complicated. Its foundation is “the theory of origin" in Buddhism, and the concept that “all living things are equal". From these concepts, vegetarianism includes three truths: first, from the point of view of medical science, to observe a vegetarian regimen is good and healthy for both our body and mind. Second, from the point of view of ecology, vegetarianism has egoistic and altruistic advantages, if we believe paragenesis is inevitable. Third, from the point of view of religious philosophy, practicing abstinence from meat makes us feel peaceful and happy. The vegetarian proposition should not be misunderstood as a religious doctrine, or the simple and sole reason for health. It is not an isolated value, but a common wisdom and morality. On the basis of the belief that “all living things are equal”, vegetarianism, which brings us health and peace, should enable all people to understand the meaning of no killing and no war. Only through the actions of respecting life, and not killing animals, can humanity get the chance to progress and to improve their ecological environment. As a matter of fact, vegetarianism equates with the idea of “protecting life”. And to protect life equates to maintaining the rights and interests of existence of human being. If we can realize this, we can then realize that vegetarianism wants mainly to express the integrity of morality and ethics, and if we really understand this, we will never find any excuse to behave foolishly – that is, to eat meat.
