    Hello, this is Jamyang.
    This video is about why our Tibetan people don’t eat fish.
    I’m a Buddhist, I don’t eat fish. Honestly, I tried once by accident and vomit a lot in the night. So, I prayed for all of the fish in the market. 🙏
    I hope you could share with me your culture about eating if you have some special custom. 😜
    Please kindly forward my video to your friends if you like my video. Thank you very much for all of your support. All my blessing to you all.❤️

      There's no dharmic religion, it's a Hindu nationalist invented term. Buddhism is anti-thesis to Hinduism, even Hinduism itself is not one centralized religion, but a term to describe various religions of the subcont, each with different beliefs and customs.

    • @navinshetty568

      @@benishan3 But the common thread passing thru all these different forms of beliefs is the Dharmic value system consisting of compassion, empathy and ahimsa. That is the beauty of the Indian culture. It synchronizes well with free liberal democratic values. It gives freedom of thought and action and teaches one to be tolerant and frees one from regementations. That is why Hinduism has survived inspite of the daunting challenges of the past and present. Even though it being least organized and inspite of its apparent incoherances.

My granny grown up in Tibet and till the date she doesn’t consume single creature from sea 🌊 or water.. she used to tell me all the same reason.. growing up with her I turn my self as vegetarian from 12 year old 🌱 and I’m proud to say that I’m still vegetarian and would be until I die.. it’s not only just because of being Buddhist, more like living a simple, harmony life and it’s kinda tribute to all the living creature on this earth.. thank you for your amazing work jamyang la..🙏🏻🍀

Thank you for this information. So thoughtful of you to have come out with 'why Tibetans do not eating fish' content. Hope it helps in changing people's fish eating habits.

    Such a lovely video! Thoroughly enjoyed the whole content!
    As a Sherpa born and raised in Kathmandu Nepal, I can vividly remember my mother strictly prohibiting my siblings and myself from holding an aquarium in tje house. Like Tibetan Buddhist, she believed if we kept fish as pets and if they die in our care, that'll be a big sin. She also never cooked fish in the house! No matter how much I urged or threatened (at least tried to) her to cook fish because my adolescent taste buds wanted to have a taste. She always tells me it's a very big sin to kill and eat fish.
    I would be lying if I say that I haven't eaten fish! But I now understand the rationale behind my mom's reasonings. Not only it stems from the cultural and spiritual values of Buddhism, but it equally serves an economic and sustainable value in the society. Having said that, I have no hate or dislike towards people who eat fish. Grew up with Newars in Kathmandu who cook fish in almost every celebrations and festivities!!
    Great work once again! Will follow your videos to be posted about Tibetan Buddhism!

      Releasing ( fishes) or other bigger animals is a common practice in Mahayana Buddhism. If you are a Buddhist practitioner naturally you will adopt a vegetarian diet to abstain from taking animals lives. The criteria of compassion & abstain from killings other beings are one of the tenets of Buddhism. The 5 precepts: 1.) Abstain from killings, 2. )Abstain from sexual misconduct, 3.) Abstain from lying ( dishonest), 4.) No stealing, 5.) Abstain from taking intoxicants.
      Our world is in topsy turvy mainly due to killings karma of wanton killings of people & animals.

    Dear Jamyang,
    Thank you for your video, I really appreciate your work and specially thank you for interviewing our friends Tibetans and accompanying the person who released those fish!
    As you may have noticed, in most of the entrances of the monasteries you will find a depiction of the wheel of life (in Tibetan, sipa korlo). In the center of the wheel, you can see three animals: pig, rooster and snake. Right on the outside of the three animals you see some people going up as a result of positive actions and some others going down as the result of engaging in negative actions. In the outer rings of the wheel we can find the depiction of the six worlds (hells, hungry ghosts, animals, humans, demi gods and gods) and in the very outer ring there are the 12 interdependent links.
    According to the teachings of our Lord Buddha, the pig represents ignorance and confusion, rooster is related to selfish desire and snake or fish are symbols of anger. Anger, desire and ignorance are the so called three poisons which are the source of our suffering.
    This wheel is also a reminder of the essence of the Buddha’s teaching: “practice virtue throughly, do not engage in non-virtue, train your mind completely, this is the teaching of the Buddha’.
    Based on this, it is said that eating chicken or eggs increases our selfish desire, eating pork increases our ignorance and confusion and eating fish or snake - which are water animals -increases our selfish aggression or anger.
    Dear Jamyang, I kindly request you to consider this and decrease your consumption of meat, specially on sacred days, like full and new moon and the 8th day of the lunar calendar. I know you love eating meat, I’ve seen many times how you enjoy 😀. I am happy you have a good time but as you are a wonderful person and we care for you and your health and as I also know you love all sentient beings I would like to request you to reduce the cause of pain of our mothers.
    The full moon is Buddha Amitabha Day, New Moon is Shakyamuni Day and 8th or half moon is Medicine Buddha Day. Buddha Amitabha protects us from famine and shortage, Buddha Shakyamuni protects us from fights and war and Medicine Buddha protects us from illness and epidemics. We as human beings are often tormented by shortage (which is caused by selfish desire) outer and inner conflicts (which are triggered by anger) and illness and diseases (which are caused by confusion and ignorance).
    As you already know, we have the power to train our mind and be of benefit for our precious mother beings - thinking of this please consider decreasing your meat consumption, for your own health and happiness!
    Sending you all my best wishes, wish you continue having wonderful travels around Tibet making everyone happy🙏❤️

      "Beware of the genetic-molesting 'leaven' (artificial sugar-coated lie bull HOOKS) of the so-called 'authorities' and scribes trying to sell us all out to the highest bidders."
      Actually jesus flipped out on the diabolical barbaric practice of selling innocent critters to be kosher slaughtered on the altar in the temple --- as a bogus way for schmuck human-cattle to have their 'sins' forgiven. the original sin was being schmuck enough to eat the forbidden fruit eggs and innocent critters like snakes do .
      (suffering causes suffering)
      Eating innocent critters is very bad karma indeed . thank goodness jesus stuck his own neck out to remind us that forgiveness depends on how we treat even the least of our bretheren ...
      (How would you like it if nobody cared enough to help you get out of the death-trap pits and snares ?)
      Man wouldn't it be great if someone else would die so that nobody would ever be held accountable for any sins anymore ? --- sure looks like spreading the other cheek further for the pedophile preistclass to rape everything more easily is backfiring big time ... Too bad --- Easy believers make it way too easy for the great deceivers...
      The last thing jesus wants to see when he returns with a serious vengence is a another death worshipping meat-cult double-cross...
      B-Less schmuckered yawl !
      we best not let anyone try to scare the friggin Be-jesus outta any of us !
      even Greater works than these kinda ones like our prince of peace performs super naturally through us

      shall become the new normal ...
      Become the type of light worker you want to see in this world ...

      for every step in the right direction we take --- the sun of god takes ten more for us ...
      get ready for G--ZEUS
      to return outta the clouds with a batta-Lion of starships (and sun dragons) armed to the teeth --- while the vast army of murdalized martyrs and resurrected saints go marching in with a seriously hilarious vengeance ! --- Leaving No ( peace, happiness, and freedom loving ) stoner left unturned into a hero of sorts ...

      interesting --- how NASA stands for never a solid answer . the spooks are actively blocking huge chunks of their own data and it's making all the independent space watchers wonder what the heck they are trying so hard to hide ...
      Be aware of the new age pedophile preistclass deceptacon hex-nut Luciferian transhumanist one world religion however.
      5D --- or 5G ?
      if you think the wages for schmucking the whole world into going to war against everything pure and natural and good are astronomically enormous --- yer darn friggin right !
      Watch out for them multidimensional illegal-alien shapeshifter demons trying to use celebutard mouthpieces like meat-puppets to sell us all out on the fantasy 5D
      Deceptacon hex-nut deception --- of trading in our original divine organic living body soul vehicles --- for Crystalline bodies sure sounds more like more transhumanist hogwash motherschmuckery
      (to this here proud grateful indigenous earthling)
      Anyhow --- We best not let ANYBODY try to scare or finagle the friggin Be-jesus outta any of US !
      So yeah --- ( i know )

    In 2010 I travelled from Lhasa to the North Face Everest Base Camp. On the way we stopped at a Han Chinese restaurant by the river in a small town. One of our dishes was fish, kind of small. We continued our journey upriver along the road and noticed a small gathering on the river bank. Curious we stopped the bus and went down a small ravine to the river bank and realised that the people were cutting up a dead human body into small pieces and feeding it to the fish in the fast flowing crystal clear river ... a funeral rite/ceremony.

    Originally, Tibetans wouldn’t eat chicken or even eggs. There’s also a Tibetan saying about only eating flesh of animals with hooves (I.e. cows, sheep) because they are vegetarian and not with claws (chicken etc) because they eat other living beings like worms, so there’s more accumulated sin higher up the food chain.

      Tibetan classify meat into two category - from big animal and small animal. Tibetan refrain from eating small animal as it entail killing more animal. Though Tibetan are not vegetarian but they are very selective. Mutton and beef are the most Common meat used. Earlier eating chicken was also discourage as it is a small animal.
