Buddha Shakyamuni said in the "Dharma Sutra " that being ashamed is the fundamental difference between human beings and animals. Only if human beings could feel being ashamed, human relationships would arise from this. Master Yin Guang said in the "Letter to Jiang Deze" that people should be grateful and ashamed. If a person can feel ashamed, then evil thoughts will be extinguished. Being ashamed is the first step to entering the right faith.
If I could meet the Dragon King, I would definitely ask him to forgive me and my father for the fault, because my father and I killed too many fish. If I can ask the Dragon King, I hope that the Dragon King can inform all fish that they will never go to waters with hooks and nets, and never eat the food that fishermen sown. I feel very guilty for my own faults. I feel very guilty and worried for my father’s faults. I ask the Dragon King and God to forgive our faults, especially my father’s faults. The reason why he is so obsessed to continue fishing, It is because he has not been educated about kindness since he was a child. If he could receive kindness education since he was a child, he would definitely not be like this. I have decided to never kill any life. I hope to make up for my past mistakes. I beg God and Dragon King to forgive my father. I beg the Dragon King and God to help the fish avoid harm from my father and other fishermen.
God never punishes a person casually. If a person is punished, then he must be at fault, perhaps a fault not long ago, or a fault long ago. People always forget the precepts that should be followed because they have not been punished for a while, and do things that shouldn't be done easily, and then they will be punished. This kind of easy forgetting makes many people regret it.
The saddest and most abominable thing in the world is that the survival of an individual must be at the expense of other individuals. For example, if I live, I must eat other creatures, and I can live only if they die. This is really uncomfortable. So I try not to eat meat now, because I just don't want other creatures to die for me. I don't want to eat dead bodies. I can eat vegetables. Although I have not completely quit meat eating, I am working hard. I hate this practice of trading someone else's life for one's own life. So I sincerely yearn for the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, and I don't think such things happen there.
