I agree turtle soup must be bad karma.. like I said. most of
these turtles are many years old.. their 'world experience'
comparatively to your own is like... quite a lot also. Especially
those huge ones whose shells they 'hang up' to advertise their
stalls...
And if you go to Chinatown market, you will see stalls that sell
turtles in tiny toyogo containers where the turtles can no longer
move cos there is no space. And they suffer like this until someone
buys them to 'release' them. Does it make sense? For one to
accummulate 'good' karma, the turtles need to go through suffering.
And the more you desire to accummulate 'good' karma.. the more
people will ignore the bad karma they will get and catch the
turtles back again to make money from you.
I don't believe in the practise of 'Fang Shen'
