1、问题：准提咒不管出家在家，饮酒吃肉，都可以。请问持大悲咒有何禁忌？

Question: zhunti mantra can be used no matter when you are a monk, drinking or eating meat. What are the taboos of holding the great compassion mantra?

对日中一食、过午不食等问题

妙祥法师： 饮酒吃肉诵咒是不灵验的，是不清净的表现。持大悲咒和所有的咒最大的禁忌，就是打妄想。

Master Miaoxiang: it's not effective to drink and eat meat and recite the mantra. It's not pure. The biggest taboo of holding the great compassion mantra and all the mantras is to fight delusion.

2、问题：显密圆通成佛心要集中确实说过准提咒不管出家在家，饮酒吃肉，都可以吗？

2. Question: do you really say the zhunti mantra, whether you are a monk or a monk, drinking or eating meat?

妙祥法师： 准提咒的意思，让那些吃肉喝酒的人，通过诵准提咒，渐渐达到不吃肉、不喝酒为目的。而自成斋戒，这就是上面的意思。

Master Miaoxiang: the meaning of zhunti mantra is to let those who eat meat and drink wine gradually achieve the goal of not eating meat or drinking alcohol by reciting the zhunti mantra. And self fasting, this is the meaning of the above.

3、问题：我不是一个素食主义者，但最近却只爱吃素的，不愿碰荤的，这是为什么？

3. Question: I am not a vegetarian, but recently I only like vegetarians and don't want to touch meat. Why?

妙祥法师： 是心里逐渐清净的原因。

Master Miaoxiang: it's the reason that my heart is getting more and more pure.

4、问题：我持素已有将近一年的时间，因我身体不是很好，家人常劝我进食肉类进补，但我仍能坚持持素，一直以来我都认为鸡蛋是素食，特别是石蛋(我们这里把孵不出小鸡的蛋称为石蛋)，也有佛友告诉我说鸡蛋为素食，但最近我吃鸡蛋和石蛋常有做呕的情况发生，请问师傅，鸡蛋和石蛋是否是素食。

4. Question: I have been a vegetarian for nearly a year. Because I am not very well, my family often advise me to eat meat for tonic, but I can still insist on vegetarianism. I always think that eggs are vegetarian, especially stone eggs (we call eggs that can't hatch chickens here as stone eggs). Some Buddhist friends tell me that eggs are vegetarian. But recently, I often feel nauseous when I eat eggs and stone eggs Yes, sir. Are eggs and stone eggs vegetarian.

妙祥法师： 鸡蛋、石蛋不属于素食，属于腥食，是卵生的一种。是不能食的。

Master Miao Xiang: eggs and stone eggs are not vegetarians. They are fishy food. They are egg laying. It's not edible.
