Why are Buddhists vegatarians?

In Buddhism, the views on vegetarianism vary from school to school. According to Theravada, the Buddha allowed his monks to eat pork, chicken and beef if the animal was not killed for the purpose of providing food for monks. Theravada also believes that the Buddha allowed the monks to choose a vegetarian diet, but only prohibited against eating human, elephant, horse, dog, snake, lion, tiger, bear, leopard, and hyena flesh.[1] Buddha did not prohibit any kind of meat-eating for his lay followers. In Vajrayana, the act of eating meat is not always prohibited. The Mahayana schools generally recommend a vegetarian diet, for they believe that the Buddha insisted that his followers should not eat meat or fish.

What is a good vegetarian version of the recipe for 'Buddha Jumps over the Wall' soup?

To make it vegetarian, you pretty much remove everything that makes it fo tiao qiang (the proper name for the soup): shark fin, quail egg, chicken, ham, sea cucumber, abalone. You end up with a completely different soup, which would taste nothing like the original; you are better off just finding a good vegetarian recipe.


Was Buddha non-vegetable?

No he was strictly vegitarian and also he never in his life kill any living things. Hinduism, and budhism both belive in sacred nature of life and belive that all living beings are sacred.Answer:Although the popular thought is that Buddhists are vegetarians (this would include the Buddha's dietary habits) this is not true.Buddhists are advised to abstain from:the killing of sentient beingsrequesting that animals to be killed for their foodthe eating of animals which are predatorsHowever, like most of Buddhism instructions, these are suggestions, not rules. Balancing these suggestions, Buddhists:eat meat when no vegetarian food is available (e.g. in Tibet)eat whatever food is given to them as an offeringeat meat if that is their preferenceThe Buddha himself is said to have died from eating tainted pork given to him by a local butcher. As a modern example, the Dalai Lama (the reincarnation of the Buddha of Compassion) was not a vegetarian in his youth.
