A Special Tibetan Culture: Most Tibetan People Don’t Eat Fish, Here Are the Reasons.(Interview)

Many people who have not been to Tibet are curious about what we eat when living in such a highland.
Our diet contains both foods unique to the Tibetan plateau, such as tsampa made from barley, yak meat, and butter tea, as well as a growing number of cuisines from other regions.
However, there is one thing that most Tibetans do not eat.
That is fish.
Why don't Tibetans eat fish? Today I will take you to see the answer of the local Tibetans in Lhasa.
I randomly interviewed some locals on the street in Lhasa city, both men and women, old and young, and none of them would eat fish.
We believe every single fish in Tibet is under the blessing of holy Mount Kailash. And they are too small that not worth being eaten by one person. Since fish has many lives, killing a fish is a very big sin. So we didn't have the habit of eating fish since we were young.
In addition to this, I also followed a Tibetan friend I met at the fish market and went to the river in Lhalu Wetland behind the Potala Palace to release fish.
We hope this small work of kindness will bring some blessings to the world suffering from COVID-19.

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.❤️
@Green Scenery tibet is far from sea indeed but China is not ? They come under Chinese occupation , i think Chinese can provide fish for tibetan , what you think 😀
@Ten Sonam ya I am with tibet .. love from India 🇮🇳 free tibet now
Kinda feel free sorry for these 'free tibet' people here: they seem to have nothing but slogans.
There is a reason when people don't reason with proofs.
@@quietlives you just mind your own business....
@@quietlives you asking about the reason and proof. Our language, alphabet, dressing,food,our culture, national flag etc are totally different from Chinese . So grow up man to know the fact and reality ✌️
All the answer I can relate very well.. 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..🙏🏻🍀
@Matt Symonds you are definitely Right.. there is no Argument that plant dint have feelings.. plants does talks to each other. But what I meant like I don’t wanted to eat meat.. that’s all.. and animals do have Same Anatomie as human being.. the verses from bible is indeed true and nice ..but plz don’t try to exaggerate the the topic with religion.. the end..🍀✌️
@Matt Symonds you are Right Peace ✌️ happy 😀🌱
Bhuddist monks eat goats just like tha Dalai Lama who cannot do without his meat
@@tenzinyoutso2353 that's why fish is better
@@GeleckG wowwww!!!! The nails an teeth are sharp!!!!!
Your video touched my heart. As a Hindu i can well understand the Tibetan sentiments. After all we both share the same dharmic values of love & compassion.God bless you my dear Tibetan brothers and sisters
I saw alot of improvement in India now, before there were discrimination against the Northeast tribals because of their food habits. I hope we have respect for those who eat beef too.
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.
@@tobacco118 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.
stoP NS, hindu has nothing common with buddinism, and hindu has no compassion and atcck muslims in india
I am from Bhutan and a Buddhist. I have been following your content since the last one week. Your contents are so unique. I didn't know that Tibetans don't eat fish. 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.
My parents never fed me fish and pork.
Don’t change my eating habit at all
Iim Tibtab. ,i eat fish 😁
Do Bhutan people eat fish.
@@geraldkueh107 Yes, we do
I am from india. I am a bengali. I eat fish. Bengalis love their fish. But we respect those too who don't eat fish. We eat according to our culture. I respect your beliefs
I am a Tibetan. Tibetans don’t eat fish but that doesn’t make us a better person. You eat fish but respect others’ beliefs and that makes you a better person 👍🙏🏻
I respect everyone's opinion , their believe, culture and way of life but so i never raise my voice against anyone base on someone's believe but sometimes i thought we human being could be better off without cast or religion, which is the driving force to keep us apart. Humanity is all we needed but religion often lead to violence and confusion. Its just my opinion but not intend to hurt someones feeling.
I am Half Nepali ( Kirati ) and Half Bengali, And I don't eat mutton, but we are allowed to eat "Chhyangra", a mountain goat because I'm half Kirati Nepali, but eat fish because my mother is Bengali. However, my mother's side of the family question why I don't eat mutton but eat something related to mutton ( the mountain goat ). And that is a long story.........
Bengali Brahmins are only Brahmins who eat fish. May be it is due to Maa Kali and her teachings.
Respect for Buddhism and for Tibetians. With love from Bengal, India.
I eat fish but how kind is his heart to think even of the littlest fish- bless you
Mahayana Buddhist would say all lives are equal. Vegetarianism is the entrance to enlightenment. 😇
I been in Tibet for Kailash pilgrimage and really felt the great compassion in every Tibetan
Their streets are so clean and why streets in Viet Nam are full of garbage
@@windyqueenky Reflects the min of the people.
Gutter mind gutter street.
Hope dalai lama will go to Tibet one day
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!
That was so kind of the man to release those fish and the vlogger to pray through out his visit to fish Market. thank u
Also though, how invasive fish like the Asian carp are not spreading throughout the US fresh water ways.
Not all well intentioned deeds are a good thing.
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.
Da Vinci used to buy the caged birds in the market to set them free
Beautiful interview I love the way Tibetan people value life of even a small fish
Oh! Don't say that. They kill thier sheeps, Male Yaks to eat. Buddhism advocates about not killing any animal but the Buddhism which Tibetan follow do eat meat.
Exactly, although no one is perfect but can become a better and better, improve to become more compassionate and influence others around. Change start from self.
I loved it a beautiful tradition
Yea also there is not racist cast system, they respect woman so much bcz in Tib Buddhism consider all mothers or woman like Goddess Tara.
@@aj.sh600 you cannot describe good bad although they may eat sheep yak but if they don't eat fish it's a good thing
I am from kerala India.We eat fish because fishes are available everywhere in kerala I think life is precious for every animals whether they are small or big.
I agree with u but, one big animal feed lots of people but,fish hv to killed in more quantity to feed lots of people.🙏
So, every life precious n matters concept come again.🙏
Each to His Own Religious beliefs( or Non of it. As long as we don't hurt each other and RESPECT each other.
@@aachisonam6452 I agree with what u say but as far as I have heard the bigger animals goes thru a bigger pain and which is why it has lots of sin as well..I'm a Buddhist and I have been veg for almost 2years now..om mani payme hun

Yeah Way ! The principals for all true belief systems ARE essentially the same Good Orderly Directions
a.k.a. GOD
Wow --- far out !
And down to earth .
Now everything makes more perfect sense !
Thanks for thee head's-up yawl !
however
Talk about corruption !
The blood of Jesus is not a blank check to do nothing or be like 'whatever'.
Don't just sit there neutralized by blissful ignorance !
"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
faithfull free radical followers ---
shall become the new normal ...
Become the type of light worker you want to see in this world ...
Like the good shepherd likes to say : "my joke is sweet --- and my burden is LIGHT !"
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 ...
Thank goodness for thee Divine down to earth
Principals of :
Peace --- kindness
Purity --- integrity
Ballance --- mindfullness
Patience --- trust
Strength --- will power
Generosity --- forgiveness
Encouragement --- joy
Wonder --- insight
and Enlightenment --- upliftment ...
Anyhow ---
Less B-Less-ing
and More Best-owing
to all yawl !
in all ways remember
to stay thankfull
and Ask
thee GREAT spirit
And THEE MOST HIGH
intelligent designer located in the heart
of all creation
for guidance on how we can redeem ourselves most effectively --- rather than merely sit around aimlessly waiting for great pumpkin pie lies in the sky to save us ...
So take heed ---
and hold fast
because
the cosmic-director
don't take too kindly
to procrastinating
i - do - laters
who delay
helping themselves
realize how to
instruct those that oppose themselves from being
more brilliantly redeemed and grateful than ever before ...
Muchos Grassyass !
And Goddesspeed !
(Schumann resonance has been off the charts lately)
Sure Looks to me
Like Empirical evidence of the thee Most High --- blasting out brilliant freedom rock riffs on rainbow coloured guitar strings !
(Guess we'll just have to wait until it dawns on ALL of us !)
Lighten up !
And stay positive
yet vigilant...
And again yawl --- thanks for helping to keep the ideal --- real !
Check out this other stellar alternative cosmic solar weather report :
this awesome looking nasa footage of what appears to be a giant black space serpent getting blasted by the sun :
th-cam.com/video/t0jgkoA3Ywc/w-d-xo.html
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 )
good luck with THAT !
Thee Light of god is written in our hearts . . .
so Hold FAST
and Goddesspeed yawl !

Instead Tibetans buy fishes from Chinese and get released them into river water
Can you imagine eating BULUT (baked nearly hatching eggs) Catholic Phillippines People go to War for Fish. Just like in Europe has Cod War and Doing World Wars ! 😭😭😭🤗😍🙏😇🙏😍🤗😭😭😭 Beware of Samsara = 💃💃💃💃🤡
I was in Tibet in 2018 with Tibet Vista and had a fabulous time. Thank you for the seamless experience! An unforgettable experience for someone who’s been to more than 100 countries.
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🙏❤️
I am Bengali..... don't ask me this question. ... you know the answer.
Great respect for Tibetan culture.
I can eat fish only if bengali offers
As a Keralite I can understand what you mean. I can't imagine living without eating fish. Living in a costal area fish is a staple. They do not have a sea in Tibet, I respect their choice though.

I eat fish, but I think and respect the Tibetan culture full of KINDNESS to other animals. I think they are great and felt love towards them. Thank for giving us Information about Kind people like TIBETANS 👍🙏❤️❤️❤️♥️♥️
I am a han Chinese .I have my opinion about why tibetan don't eat fish .because tibetan used to throw people's corpse to the river ,actually the river is tibetan people's cemetery .especially the people in lhasa don't eat fish .they choose to bury elder's corpse under the river ,so the tibetan bear or wolf can't smell the corpse and eat it ,if tibetan bear or wolf eat too much human corpse ,they will be very dangerous to the elder's offsprings .at this ,I salute to the tibetan ancestors ,how they try to do their best to help their offsprings ,even after they die ,they don't want to waste the precious grassland or farm land which is left for their offsprings to live ,and let their corpse down in the river rest in peace forever ,so deep wisdom and affection in it .and in the deepest level of tibetan people's soul their ancestors are in that fish , they saw the vultures take their ancestors's body fly to the sky ,then they thought their ancestors's corpse must be eaten by fish under the river . not only because of the religion ,but also they have the same affection to their ancestors (fish),though they can't say why they don't eat fish clearly ,this is the real reason .
I am from India,I really appreciate this video and your beautiful culture 🙏,I think Tibtian are most peaceful people in the world,lord Shiva bless you 🙏🙏
I am a Chinese ,to me the tibetan Indian and tibetan Chinese are totally different people ,they are not same ,I am not sure where is it ...

Live to more videos like this. It’s really helping and calming to see our own people. Thank you
The release of the helpless fish dedicated to death is a great blessing. That pious man had a noble heart. I also wholeheartedly contribute to that charity. It was as if those helpless animals had been rescued from hell and taken to heaven. He is a great man. May all men be like this! May he live a long and healthy life! Come to heaven after death ! May the future Nirvana be the same! Bless the Triple Gem !

Thanks for the video,it was interesting and informative on Tibetan culture, greetings from Sydney Australia
Thanks for this very thoughtful video! What I love about Tibetan culture and believe system is that when they pray they include all sentient beings to end their sufferings and find their enlightenment!!! May be that’s why most Tibetans, especially the old generations seems to be full of “ innere Heiterkeit “(=inner joyfullness).
what a good content a good information.this is the first time i've heard that there is a certain place here on earth that really do not eat fish epecially for that reason,great respect to you guys.in the philippineds we really love sea foods . So touch for the man who bought fish just to free them . God Bless u guys.

Not really.
Be careful!
I'm Nepali I'm Tamang I'm Buddhist we have strong faith in Tibetan Buddhism Tashi Delek to all 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😇🇳🇵
I do not know ,, but Buddhism culture attracts me towards them, their way of living, snow, high flat mountains, their costumes, their way of speaking clearly attracts a lot.
Very nice to see the loving and warm interaction of this young man and his people. But even though the title said otherwise, I expected and waited with baited breath to hear from Tibetans who do eat fish and what was their rationale for doing so while living in that culture.
Edit: There was quite a bit of dead fish in that fish market. I would be interested to hear from fishermen as well about their industry.
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.
@@gyadre Your info about big/small animal has been repeated ad nauseum in the video and other comments below. What I am talking about is the differentiation between not the size but the type of animal too. FYI Dhermochen animals are considered unclean along with being more sinful as they eat other lower animals.
Tibetans are compassionate people, peace loving and practice Buddhism. How beautiful this world would be if we respect nature and live in co-existence.
U r my one the fav youtuber ... thanks for our motherhood home tour.. feeling blessed and feeling as if i m in tibet

Hi Jamyang! I am from the Philippines and a Christian. We eat fish. Because we believed fish has lots of nutrients and it is healthy. Thanks for the information about your culture.
Hi
Just because you are eating fish for its healthiness,.. then there are lots of option to eat vegetables, which are very healthy and nutrients..
Here we are talking about the value of live of every sentient beings.. even small incets..
Just for your info..
Sorry if I bother you.

Hi Brother, now I learned from you, that Tibetan people don't eat fish, 😍😍😍. I knew already the reason. Thanks for sharing one of your culture in Tibet. Tibetan people are beautiful and handsome. I like your country ;🤗🤗🤗 I hope I could visit one day...I'm watching from the Philippines😊😊

谢谢给大家介绍西藏文化！在美国只好相反。。。很多人不吃肉可是会吃鱼
I am a han Chinese .I have my opinion about why tibetan don't eat fish .because tibetan used to throw people's corpse to the river ,actually the river is tibetan people's cemetery .especially the people in lhasa don't eat fish .they choose to bury elder's corpse under the river ,so the tibetan bear or wolf can't smell the corpse and eat it ,if tibetan bear or wolf ate too much human corpse ,they will be very dangerous to the elder's offsprings .at this ,I salute to the tibetan ancestors ,how they try to do their best to help their offsprings ,even after they die ,they don't want to waste the precious grassland or farm land which is left for their offsprings to live ,and let their corpse down in the river rest in peace forever ,so deep wisdom and affection in it .and in the deepest level of tibetan people's soul their ancestors are in that fish , they saw the vultures take their ancestors's body fly to the sky ,then they thought their ancestors's corpse must be eaten by fish under the river . not only because of the religion ,but also they have the same affection to their ancestors (fish),though they can't say why they don't eat fish clearly ,this is the real reason .
降央大哥，早啊，扎西德勒。
I have just watched about 4 or 5 of these videos. I really enjoy them. Thank you! I am sure I will come back and watch more of these very interesting videos.
What a lovely video. The thought that eating fish is taking many lives makes sense to me.
I am Tibetan... Unfortunately I am a seafoods lover...(no small fishes thou) for me it’s all about intention...🌸🙏🏻🌸
In Tibetan World, they said small fishes aren’t eaten, because to consume them, we need to kill them daily. And also, as per their scientific reason, one fish can give millions of life. So killing one fish means kiling millions life at once.
So with the proper calculation, though eating meat is also a sin but human has to survive at-least. And, instead of doing a millions sin at a time, it’s better ko kill those who give births to lesser number for the leaser sin.
best part is Nya Tsethar, amazing
Excellent video! Very well put together. Please allow your English text to stay on screen for at least 5 seconds so that it can be easily read. This type of presentation is very educational for folks living in the West.
Thank you, for this... Learning and respecting cultures and beliefs 🤗
I eat fish by the way. 🍀
Tibet is so free from the covid 19, everyone is living in the normal life. Nepal is in big trouble rn becuz of the covid surge from India.
The conspiracy theory around the origin of SARS-CoV-2, or the novel coronavirus after it escaped from the Wuhan laboratory seems to have gained ground after the shocking revelation of Chinese military scientists allegedly investigated weaponising coronaviruses five years before the pandemic.
As per the The Sun newspaper in the UK, which quoted the reports released by The Australian, citing the documents accessed by the US State Department reportedly hints at the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) commanders making the creepy prediction.
@@tibetan_beautifulsong3931 How did the Covid virus escaped from Wuhan laboratory ? Did it run out with bare foot or with Nike sneaker on ?
After watching seaspiracy from netflix.. i have so much respect for tibetans not eating fish!! I wish every nation reduce the intake of marine animals.. we are destroying our planet🌏 If you watch SEASPIRACY ..you know what i mean🤨
💓💓💓💓💓👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍soooo.. lovely to see our country....Tibet... and our tibetan people
Very interesting video. I learned so much, love from the Philippines.
I see. The fish is small & you have to take so many lives to eat them. Whereas the yak can feed many for a long period. I understand. But I think differently. I cannot eat an animal capable of love. I believe we should only eat the reptiles, fish, insects or just eat plants, fruits, vegetables, nuts etc. 🙏
I agree ☝️ I’m Tibetan I’m vegetarian 🙏🙏🙏
@@tibetan_beautifulsong3931 Thank you for replying to my comment :) Can I ask if it is difficult for Tibetans to live in India & especially China where such a disrespect for animal lives exists or are you isolated enough away so that you don’t have to see it?

@@malorybertie8046 it makes total sense. Leaving bodies out for the animals would definitely make the animals see even living humans as food. But it taints their water & fish supply so I’m not sure that’s the right answer either. Probably cremation would be the best in those circumstances.
