The Buddha knew very well the cause and effect of good and evil, so he wanted to let his disciples get out of suffering, he often forbade his followers from practicing evil deeds, even though his career made money very easy, but it is not true happiness.

In the A Ham and Nikaya Sutras, the Buddha advised lay people not to practice six evil occupations, because these six professions are not suitable for the compassionate mind of Buddhism, causing suffering for many sentient beings, when the body of the body is abandoned. into the three evil paths. Those six evil occupations are as follows:

1. Not doing hunting

Hunting is an evil profession, killing many species of wild animals: deer, deer, monkeys, ferrets, pigs, wild chickens and other birds ...

The famed American writer Ernest Hemingway died, the whole world was shaken and gave him unbelievable regret, because everyone thought that such a famous and talented writer could commit suicide, moreover use a gun to shoot yourself? For this person, people feel extremely confused, can not understand. But few people knew that Mr. Hemingway was a very good-looking son when he was born and used a gun to kill countless animals, so he ended up killing himself with a gun.

According to the wisdom of World Religion, people who create karma to kill a lot, especially those who practice hunting, butchers, butchers, are not only blessed with health and longevity but also suffer from poor and miserable retribution. .

2. Not doing fishing nets

Fishing nets are also a very cruel profession, specializing in catching fish and shrimp, killing aquatic species, making and using types such as: laying gabions, fishing nets, nets, nets, sentences ...

The old story tells that there was a Venerable monk before ordained, specializing in hunting and catching otters. One day, he just went out and hunted an otter. After peeling off his precious skin, he placed the living otter on a lawn. In the evening, he returned to his old place, but he couldn't find the otter. He watched carefully, spotting a small amount of blood in the grass, leading to a small cave nearby.

When he approached the cave, he was startled by surprise: It turned out that the otter suffered from the pain of losing his skin, running to his cave.

He wondered why the otter did so. When he pulled out the otter that had stopped breathing, it was discovered that the two otters were still unopened, they were holding their mothers' breasts, which had long been dead ...

Looking at the scene, he was shocked and suddenly realized, he had never thought of animals before and had such great affection for his mother and daughter, even people could hardly do well. Before dying, I still thought about giving the baby a milk, because I was afraid that my child would be hungry. Thinking about it, his tears fell, feeling guilty, ashamed of his actions. So he brought two otters back to feed him when he grew up he released it to nature. Then he was determined to renounce his sins.

The Buddha knew very well the cause and effect of good and evil, so he wanted to let his disciples get out of suffering, he often forbade his followers from practicing evil deeds, even though the occupation made it easy, it is not true happiness.

3. Do not trade raw meat

The raw meat trade is a job of killing buffaloes, cows, pigs, goats, horses, dogs, chickens and ducks ... The person doing this job, called the butcher slaughter, sells each piece to other people to buy it for food. . This profession is very cruel, killing living beings without mercy.

A police officer from the 26-year forensic institute reported the following case of an elderly parent murder case:

“In 2002, a 28-year-old midnight man killed his parents over sixty years old. This old couple is still sleeping, his son is tied up in bed. After that, he cut off their necks, blood splattered with the wall, fell sprawled ... The aggression that night had fled, and was arrested in a small town in the South. Look on the outside, this is a clear case, with extremely authentic, complete evidence, full of witnesses and evidence.

The killer is the only son in the family, since he was a child, his parents are very hard-tempered and extremely aggressive. The player who is married is still staying with his parents, often controversial. Next, the perpetrator asked his parents for money to buy a house, but his parents said temporarily without money and blamed his son for being useless, not worried about working, causing them to lose face with their neighbors. .

This may have elicited the murderous concept of the killer. But why is the profound reason why the perpetrator insists on killing his parents like that? There is an episode in the case file that makes people think.

“A couple of victims in a few decades have opened a chicken and duck slaughterhouse. They do business in the market very well. When the investigation team went to the market to get evidence, based on the words of the neighbors in the shop, the couple of victims of the past few decades practiced to bring live chickens, hang them on steel wires, then they Grasp the chicken head and then cut them with a knife. For the rest of their lives, they have lived by this profession and become rich. It is said that this technique of cutting chicken necks is passed down by their ancestors. In particular, they do this business before laying off the son of a killer. ”

Thus, due to the death of the practice of cutting chickens and ducks, it is well known that such techniques are affected by colleagues (evil) and give birth to such children. Then they took a beating and were cut back by their only son. Does this report not make us nervous?

4. Not working as a meat trader

The trade of ripening meat is the job of taking meat and cooking them into food such as: pho, porridge, noodles, noodles, rolls, nem ... This profession is also a cruel profession. This practitioner also loses compassion.

There is a previous shopkeeper dealing in river and chicken hill fish. Seeing that the dog meat restaurants served guests, he rented a new location and opened a shop in the street specializing in dog meat business.

However, just as the sales of dog meat boomed, the misfortune continued to fall on his family. The first is what happened to his oldest son, who was a career-oriented man, continuing to lead his father to manage and trade dog meat.

In 2000, when the boss's son was grabbing the dog from the cage to beat and slaughter, it was accidentally bitten by the dog. The bite was slightly scratched so he didn't mind. However, the dog biting him was a rabid dog.

About a month later, he went into a rabid, frothy mouth and died in a famous hospital in Singapore. Although the family did not regret bringing their children abroad for treatment, they still could not save their children. The next deadline for his family was his wife who had a catastrophe, who was bedridden.

In addition, many families doing dog meat business in this neighborhood are not happy. Most are bankruptcy, failure of money. There are families with children sticking to lots, betting, gambling, and addiction, so even though making billions of dollars, they are empty. Many families fled to other places because they were debtors.

5. Not engaged in the production and trading of alcoholic beverages, addictive products and services

Alcohol and addictive things are strictly forbidden because it is the cause of sin and loss of intelligence. In the world, many people cause so many sins, even committing the crime of rebellion, cruelty, are all due to the use of over-addictive and comatose things that form. Not only do the merits and deeds need to be done, they have not done, but the merits and virtues they have created before are also completely lost, so that the whole day, the mind and body are crazy and don't know how to work. what.

Moreover, when drinking alcohol, it is impossible to control yourself. In daily activities, they like to fight with others; giving birth to diseases for themselves, hysterical moods, not being ashamed of being ignorant. So much, sometimes escaping all the clothes on the body, walking staggeringly, lying stubbornly at the top of the market, being disparaged by the disgraceful people, the bad language spread everywhere, causing the sufferers to suffer. As for addictive things like drugs or games, to have money to satisfy the addiction, someone has to rob them, kill people or destroy their own bodies to death.

Alcohol and addictive things are strictly forbidden because it is the cause of sin and loss of intelligence.

6. Not doing human trafficking

Human trade is a slave trade (selling slaves). Wholesale trade of chalk selling (prostitution) is also a trade of people. These professions are very cruel, use power, money, material to force the displaced relatives who are in poverty to sell themselves as slaves, to become prostitutes, to make families suffer and break. Prostitution is a depraved profession that loses human dignity, makes people no longer moral and worse than animals.

These occupations, which are cruel occupations, kill sentient beings and cause suffering, sickness, when we kill living beings to eat meat without knowing how much fat it is, it is also the origin. arising illness, because killing lives must owe the network, blood must be paid with blood and law of cause and effect. You should remember, no one in this world gives anyone anything, people like each other just like how to steal a living being ...

Therefore, those who practice these careers to feed their lives, parents, families and enrich the suffering of all beings. They are ignorant people who do not see the law of cause and effect that governs every moment of every human being, the law of cause and effect will not tolerate anyone, if anyone has done evil, he must take the consequences of suffering. Often, the law of cause and effect often comes when people do evil but it takes a long time before the cause is formed, but when it comes, people realize that it is karmic retribution, at that time, it is only known to call heaven but no one can save them.

Cause and effect is a fair law, we do it ourselves, we cannot bear it for others. Therefore, no one brings suffering to us but ourselves, as well as no one brings happiness to us, but ourselves.

Therefore, the Buddha knew very well the cause and effect of good and evil, so he wanted to let his disciples get out of suffering, he often forbade his followers from practicing evil deeds, even though his career made great money. easy, but it is not true happiness. Therefore, he wanted to let his disciples live happily and happily, no longer encounter suffering. Because every day, in our life has created many evil causes, we must suffer the consequences of suffering for life and death, but no one brings such suffering to us even if the evil spirit is evil. Just as there is no god or Buddha and the Bodhisattvas bless us. Please note for this point.

Cause and effect is a fair law, we do it ourselves, we cannot bear it for others. Therefore, no one brings suffering to us but ourselves, as well as no one brings happiness to us, but ourselves.

Because many people do not see the law of cause and effect very fair and justice, so in life they only see what jobs make money and have rice to wear clothes easily, especially the living environment, where people work closely. born is easy to make money, they imitate to follow, but did not expect to create countless crimes. From actions that create death and suffering for sentient beings, they themselves and even the family must receive such suffering from one person to another.

As disciples of the Buddha, lay people must pay attention to these six evil occupations, always obeying the teachings of the Buddha and finding happiness and happiness of individuals and their families. . Practicing rightly is called the righteous karma, the righteous profession that can support one's own life and everyone in the family. Since then, there is a happy and happy life.END=NAM MO SAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.13/3/2019.
