“You see, there are two laws in the universe, the Law of Love and the Law of Retribution. The Law of Love is all compassion, all forgiving, but we have to turn back to that law, you see, because if we continue to do the things that are violating the Law of Retribution, means ‘as you sow, so shall you reap,’ then we have to reap the bad retribution of it. But if we follow the law of Heaven, you see? Every Master told you already what to do. Do not kill. Do not steal. Do not covet neighbor’s wife or property. Do not tell the untruth. Love thy neighbor. We have to do that. Otherwise, what kind of human are we? Even animals, they don’t go out mass-killing for no reason.”
“There was a picture of a cat. She was totally burned blind and scarred all over because she came four times into the fire, burning house, to rescue four of her kittens. And she was burned blind and beyond recognition. But she brought them all out to safety. A cat! A cat is very independent. After she is pregnant, I think she is not helped by any male or father. She raises her children alone. And I have seen many cats in our surroundings sometimes who do all these beautiful things to her children. I saw her bringing food for the children. And I am touched by her devotion. She has done her best to provide nourishment for her children while eating garbage for herself. I saw it with my own eyes. I am only very moved by her love. And this picture is still vivid in my mind every time I think about cats. So I don't know why we human beings treat animals so cruelly, most of us, and think of them as low level beings.”
“And that is the reason why we must be vegetarian. Because they are truly noble, they truly possess the human quality and a soul within them, just like ourselves. So I think it's also good when we learn from the animals. Some of the qualities, not that we learn to become an animal. But their good quality we should remember so that we don't feel ashamed to be lower than animal standard, at least. We should rise to the noble position of a saint.”
“If we don’t change our hearts, our bad karma (retribution) won’t change and our morality won’t improve. Yes. I want the sentient beings to change their own conscience. If this Earth perishes, there are other planets. If people don’t have a conscience, no matter where they go, they still don’t have it.”
“We can only help the Earth and ourselves by persuading people to change their lifestyle and live their life with conscience and love.”
