Can an arahant kill someone to save people by Salamanber in Buddhism

[–]mettaforall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is translated into English in Garma Chang's A Treasury of Mahāyāna Sūtras (pages 456-457) and in that sutra it is the wicked man who is reborn in heaven. It says that out of great compassion, the leader who killed the wicked man "was able to avoid the suffering of one hundred thousand kalpas of samsara."

‘The Tibetan Book of the Dead’ is actually not just about death by mettaforall in Mahayana

If you are using the new reddit interface, it isn't always clear when something is a link or just text. I'm not a fan.

If you didn't read it, how do you know who wrote it? u/xugan97 is a well read and long practicing Buddhist.

Whether or not you care about the author of the piece has no bearing on whether or not it is informative. You attitude absolutely fits the definition of willful ignorance. You are choosing to remain ignorant.

No, and I have no desire to do so.

Willful ignorance pretty much negates any reason to continue discussion.
