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.
How do Buddhist monks reciprocate for the food and offerings they receive?
Buddhist monks do not reciprocate for the food and offerings they receive. People give them food and requisites as a way of practicing generosity, earning merit and overcoming their greed. If the monks reciprocated, it would not be an act of generosity, there would be no merit, and it would not help the givers overcome their greed.Monks practice generosity and compassion by teaching the dhamma to those who are interested, but they are not required to do so and it is not in exchange for food and requisites.The Buddha said that monks who are free from the defilements of greed, anger and ignorance eat alms without debt.
