Sát sinh tội nặng lắm!
English Ẩn / hiện bản dịch
Killing Is a Grave Sin
A fisherman brought his fish to the market to sell. A monk saw him and said, ‘You take lives every day. That is a grave sin! Would you like the temple to help you repent?’
‘What would I have to do?’ asked the fisherman.
‘Sell your fish to the temple cheaply, so we can release them into the pond.’
‘All right. But I'll need five coins for each fish. I can't accept any less.’
‘Praise the Buddha! Why so expensive?’ exclaimed the monk. ‘The fried fish we usually buy at the food stall cost only three coins each—and yours haven't even been fried!’
