depends on WHO you askes this question lor.

if you ask a monk, he will def says BETTER dont eat any MEAT if you are praying to buddha's school of deities - all the Arhats(罗汉) and Bodhivasta(菩萨)。

Hi karen77sg

Any form of killing is no good, whether your house worship Buddha 佛 or Bodhisattva 菩薩.

To kill is a sin, however small it may be.

If you have to kill and have no choice since your hubby love to eat crab, well you can at least chant 文殊師利菩薩往生咒

Here the step:

1) Before eating, we need to do 超度 the dead animal (ie pig, chicken, cow...). Here's what you do:

a) Visualize Amitabha Buddha 南無阿彌陀佛 in front of you (mid air), emitting red light shining on the plate of food on the table.

b) Visualize your hand symbol ( see diagram) place in front of your chest if you can, if not do the hand symbol under the table so no one can see or visualize it

c) Visualize all the chicken, pork, beef or fish (whatever you are eating) form into one complete physical shape. All chicken form into one chicken, all pork form into one pig & etc.

d) Chant: 文殊師利菩薩往生咒

嗡。啞貝拉吽。堪渣拉。梭哈 (7 times)

Om ah pei la hom gan cha la suo ha

Now visualize the animals in complete shape flying toward Amitabha Buddha 南無阿彌陀佛

Hi karen77sg,

It apply to all living things, however small. It will definitely benefit you if you chant, even for animal you dont kill.

These apply whether you eat in or outside your house.
