It is against the basic definition of fearlessness to be with the fish seller directly or indirectly, explicitly or implicitly, and let the fish seller catch the fish when he hears the news. This can make these sentient beings die in a few days, and now they have long been caught because of the number and types of sellers. Although you mean to free them, there are bound to be sentient beings who will die young because of your appointment, making their good deeds biased towards form. If you want to buy something suddenly, let it go without notice.

The second is to observe the location, water quality and suitable environment of released creatures.

It will be of great benefit to the released sentient beings if they can be placed in an environment suitable for their growth. On the contrary, if you only pay attention to where you put it, it will do great harm. For example, the eel loach can't live in the river for a few days because the bottom of the river is sediment, and the snail can't live in the river for a few days. If you put a marine fish in a fresh water basin, it will die. When releasing fish eggs, you must buy the mother fish, otherwise only buying fish eggs will kill the mother fish, and the fish eggs will miscarry like a premature baby. You can't put rabbits in public places, birds in places that are easy to catch, and fish in rivers and waters that are polluted by chemical raw materials.

3. There is no fixed time and place to buy fish and release them. Try not to let people know where to release them or choose sparsely populated places or waters in the middle of big rivers. "Once I went fishing in Songhua Lake in Jilin, a young Hui man told me that four people came to the riverside of Songhua Lake in Changchun yesterday to fish. After they left, the fish stopped swimming in the middle of the river, so let others catch it! " " .

Four, it is forbidden to release in small waters such as fish ponds.

It is forbidden to put fish and aquatic animals into fish ponds. Taking the fish pond as the source of selling fish to kill, and putting all beings in it is indirect killing. Don't put the fish in the small lake, because the water surface of the small lake is limited and there is nowhere for the fish to escape. Don't put the fish in the small water bank. Don't put summer migratory birds in winter, but they will freeze to death and starve to death. Don't release the domestic bird, it won't feed on its own, and it will starve to death. To release birds, you should buy wild birds and take them to places with dense vegetation and few people. Once there are a few dying birds left, gently put them in the deep grass to avoid being caught by tourists.

5. The release ceremony should be simple and grand, and the release process should be quickly affirmed. Never shelve it because of human factors, causing unnecessary suffering to all beings in the cage.

Don't organize a large group of fellow initiates to release them too ostentatiously, lest they be caught by those scheming people. The release rules should be simple and complicated according to the situation of life. If necessary, let them go first and then make rules. Etiquette must be pious, otherwise it is meaningless!

Sixth, regardless of size.

Pursue quantity blindly and stay away from compassion for some sentient beings. If you see two pots of fish, you think that if you put this pot of small creatures, the price and quantity will be more economical than that of the big one. Or thinking that buying a lot of snails is not enough to buy a turtle. Therefore, abandon the big expensive, choose the small and choose the cheap. In this way, it is bound to cause resentment and anger among the unsaved beings. As we all know, the bigger the body, the more expensive all beings are. The more you let go, the greater your merit. So, when you are released, don't buy raw food with a choice and what kind of heart to buy. Buy whatever you meet.

Seven, good at returning.

Many people think that they don't stick to their merits and interests, and they will never return after they let go. Who knows that the maturity of cause and effect is an inevitable trend. If we don't pay attention to return, it will lead to the transformation of the merits of releasing people into blessings, hinder future life and even become a Buddha. Therefore, every practitioner should transfer his merits to the interests of all kinds of Buddhas in the world. Such as return to a solemn western paradise.

Eight, know yourself and know yourself, don't advise.

Don't easily announce and persuade people who have no confidence (especially fish sellers) that I bought fish for meritorious service, what should you do, and so on. Because I don't understand each other's concept of causal selection, once I master and find out the time law of the releaser, I prefer the released species, even if it is convenient for the releaser every time, it will become a mere formality and form a disadvantage. So that the seller can buy a certain kind of sentient beings for the needs of the releaser, but the releaser may not be able to buy all the goods of the seller at once, which makes another part of sentient beings complain sadly. So don't let the seller know the purpose and the law easily.

For some areas that have already formed this situation, it is better to mend after the sheep is dead, and pay attention to publicizing this truth to new releasers.

Don't blame yourself for making mistakes at work.

There is nothing wrong with releasing people to save lives. Because of tools, karma and various unfavorable factors, many people who let go can't do what they buy, which makes the deceased feel ashamed and guilty. In fact, all beings are subject to cause and effect from birth to death. No matter how hard you try, it will still die before it is released, which is really caused by karma. Even so, he is ten thousand times luckier than the man who was cooked with a knife. It is said that the pain of animals is not only the pain of death, but also the perception of pain after being dissected, cooked or even digested after death. Therefore, it is still a great contribution to make the released people die with less pain and avoid the severe pain after death. Besides, it is still of positive and far-reaching significance for them to return the merits you released to them.

Ten, the release site needs to pay attention to cleaning.

The choice of release site should be based on a clean environment suitable for life growth, especially the water source should be large rivers, running water, no industrial pollution, and it is best to be a national protected area; As far as possible, the objects to be released should choose life that can survive independently, such as birds and fish.

public benefit activities

On July 30th, 20 14, the State Administration for Religious Affairs invited representatives from the Buddhist Association of China, the Taoist Association of China, the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the Ministry of Agriculture, the State Forestry Administration, Tsinghua University, China Agricultural University and china wildlife conservation association to hold a symposium with the theme of "Compassionate Care of Students and Rational Release", to summarize the ideas and practices of Buddhism and Taoism on compassionate care of students and rational release, and to listen to the interpretation of relevant laws and regulations by government departments and consulting experts. Jiang, deputy director of the State Bureau of Religious Affairs, presided over the meeting.

In his written speech, Wang Zuoan, director of the State Bureau of Religious Affairs, hoped that the Buddhist and Taoist circles would start from themselves and take the opportunity of building "ecological temples" and "ecological temples" to promote the concept of caring for students, advocate reasonable release activities, and promote the formation of a new concept of caring for students with compassion and reasonable release. He pointed out that standardized and reasonable release activities must meet three standards. First, we must abide by national laws, release students according to law, and protect students according to law, and must not violate national laws and relevant international conventions; Secondly, conform to the teaching method, follow the teachings and rituals of Buddhism and Taoism, and follow the fate; Thirdly, we should pay attention to methods, respect science, release them cautiously and do good deeds well. Director Wang Zuoan put forward three suggestions on how to guide believers in Buddhism and Taoism to release their lives reasonably: First, advocate reasonable release, strengthen publicity, guide believers to learn relevant laws, regulations and scientific knowledge, believe in benevolence, cultivate the spirit of benevolence and forgiveness, and practice compassion; The second is to establish a release cooperation mechanism, consciously accept the guidance and supervision of government departments, listen to the opinions and suggestions of experts and scholars, and join hands with legal non-governmental environmental protection and animal protection organizations to strive to play a greater role; Third, reasonable release should be included in the activities of creating harmonious temples, and Buddhist and Taoist groups, temples and religious staff should perform their respective duties to promote the healthy development of reasonable release activities.

The leaders of China Buddhist Association and China Taoist Association expounded the positive role of releasing activities in practicing religious teachings, introduced the essence of caring for students and cherishing life in Buddhism and Taoism, and called on believers to truly embody the concept of respecting life in releasing activities, guide people to do good, and make contributions to promoting ecological civilization and building beautiful China. Relevant responsible comrades of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the Ministry of Agriculture and the Forestry Bureau clarified the legal norms of release activities through the interpretation of relevant laws and regulations; Experts from Tsinghua University, Animal Protection Association and Agricultural University analyzed the misunderstanding and harm in the release activities, and put forward opinions and suggestions from the scientific background and specific operation.

At the meeting, the Buddhist Association of China and the Taoist Association of China read out the Proposal of Caring for Students' Rational Release, calling on believers to practice the concept of caring for students by Buddhism and Taoism, abide by laws and regulations, believe in the right things under the guidance of scientific knowledge, release them rationally, care for students with compassion, and contribute to building an ecological civilization and beautiful China.
