Sometimes someone will try to make a little cash selling grass and cow vitamin pills to people to feed to a cow that they have on the side of the road. So that people can earn Hindu points. (I wonder if I have earned any Hindu points by being vegan, I should check at the karma bank.) This is sort of like the Buddhism vegetarianism thing in Taiwan. You didn’t have to be vegetarian to be a good Buddhist, at least not in the Buddhism practiced in Taiwan. But it is good to be vegetarian. So go be vegetarian for a few days a month. Better to be vegetarian all the time, but if not, better to do it sometimes than not at all. You earn a few Buddhist points for being vegetarian for a few days. And then, I don’t know, you get to buy Reading Railroad or something?
