Non-Killing | August 14, 2014
From the intrinsic standpoint--one of
body, of Buddha-nature--non-killing means that there is nothing being
born and nothing dying. The very notions of 'birth' and 'death' are
extra. Life does not divide up into things to be killed or not killed;
it is just this one body, constantly changing.
- Bernie Glassman, “The First Precept”
