Compassion is a central theme in Buddhist culture and extends not just to humans but to animals as well.
This documentary is inspired by the animal activist work of Venerable Hongyi (1880–1942) who actively promoted compassion to all beings.
In today's context, animal rescue, vegetarian / vegan lifestyle, support of shelters and rescuers are all example of animal protection.
We explore how monasteries and Dharma inspired organisations and individuals rescue, protect, and care for cats, dogs, rabbits and even turtles and terrapins.
More importantly, the compassion for all being also extend to lifestyle choices to create as little suffering for animals as possible.
Come watch and find out how we can care, protect and love animals as our fellow beings.
