Last night, I was being constantly bitten by a mosquito in my
living room. After 1 hour, I finally catched a glimpse of it
resting still on the sofa. And it was quite big.
But a compassionate thought arised in me. I could spare its life
by simply moving myself into the room, turning on the air-con and
sleeping. This way, it can't follow me in too.
So spared its life I did. And i never saw this mosquito again
from the next day onwards. Strange huh? Afterwards, I felt
a huge relief that I did not commit unnecessary killing.
So much killing in our lives is unnecessary. We only
have to adapt to the situation and move away. If everyone consumes
lesser meat and more vegetable/plant based foods, lesser animals
would suffer for us.
