pest control?

Recommended Posts

Tashi Delek,

 

from the Buddhist point of view, every sentient being (including the smallest one of animals) could be your kind mother in one of the previous lives, so you should not cause any harm to it.

So what should I do if I want to grow some vegetables in my garden or simply cultivate flowers and plants in my appartment and it happens they get harmed by some animals, like "plant spiders" (sorry I don't know the name for them), mites, certain bugs etc.?? I should not kill the animals, I guess, but I cannot just throw away all the plants I've got?? ... :cry:

Tashi Delek,

 

i think that this topic have already been discussed. It is hidden under the title Breaking the vow.

I hope you will find something useful for you.

 

All the best,

chödrön

 

P.S.: I'm sorry, Gigu, for the long post, url function doesn't work. :lol:

 

URL modified by Moderation.

Note: the function URL works very well when it is typed correctly! I've modified it, and it is ok now...
