不要打罵畜生，因為和畜生結惡緣，來世相遇會有報應；也不要溺愛、寵愛畜生如自己兒女，因為和畜生結情纏，來世牠會來纏你，反而障道。
　　Refrain from beating or scolding animals as it will give rise to negative cause and conditions with the animal, and you will receive retribution in subsequent lives when you and the animal meet each other. Do not spoil or be unduly kind to pets and treat them like one’s own children, since this will cause you to have emotional entanglement to the pets and such connections may lead them to establish connection with you again in future lives and become an obstacle to your practice of the teachings of Buddha.
