The Dhamma , Veganism and Vegetarianism

[TheSynergist]

Re @UpasakaMichael’s comment about vegetarianism, I would add a caution that Devadatta had tried to split the sangha on this point. Personally I have found vegetarianism and veganism to be one of those topics that can lead to a feeling of “righteous anger” and indignation (which is another form of ill will), or sadness and sorrow, neither of which are really wholesome mental states, which is perhaps ultimately what really matters.

Indeed. On the Buddhism reddit forum, discussion of vegetarianism is actually banned because it’s so toxic/divisive.
