Sellamuthu S.Kandasamy Poet Couplet

Give Up Meat

1.Eating meat to swell	
how can pity?
2.Protect hoarding as to
mercy abjure meat.
3.Heart of tasting meat
as armed unkind.
4.Mercy is unkilling, unkind
kills, flesh-eating unrighteous.
5.Life, non-eating flesh even
hell retains eater.
6.If unkill for flesh-eating
none sell it.
7.Avoid flesh-eating if realizing
sufferings of beings.
8.Pure from illusion evades
eating life-less flesh.
9.Avoiding mutton betters thousand 
ghee-burning sacrificial rituals.
10.All beings revere kind
non-eaters of meat.
