There are disciplines or moral training in several disciplines to guide correct action (sikkhāpada). Traditionally, Theravāda 's layman took five precautions (lifelong or period) in front of the monastery after evacuating with three jewels. An amateur occasionally takes a series of eight extended fields including a virgin with special occasions such as religious holidays. It is often said that it is believed to date back to the Buddha, but Vipassana meditation, promoted by Vipassana, can be traced back to the 19th and 20th centuries. According to Basswell, in the 10th century Vipassana was no longer practiced in the seat tradition as Buddhism collapsed and believed that liberation could not be achieved any longer before Maitreya 's arrival. It was reintroduced in the 18th century by Myanmar Medawi (1728-1816) (Myanmar).

In the last article, I wrote five major rules about Buddhism, Pancasila. This is the most fundamental thing that non-professional Buddhists should know. As this is the first commandment, I am one of the doctrines of obeying the killing prohibition. So in this article, I would like to develop lessons for Buddhists to understand and practice it properly. According to the above five points, plants and microorganisms do not have thought and perception, can not move anywhere, and microbes such as bacteria can not be seen with the naked eye, so these points can not be satisfied. They can certainly not be called "beings" but only in the Buddhism related to the first commandment. There are only humans and animals here, because they have ideas and perceptions, they can move anywhere and can see with the naked eye. Therefore, we can call humans and animals a perceptual being.

The main rule "to protect innocent human life" leads to secondary rules such as "do not stop" or "do not euthanasia". Secondary discipline comes from the main rules; theoretically, they are easier to explain than the main rules. Aquinas allows you to create detailed information about them, such as dealing with the situation. There are even more exceptions. Natural law also examines the function of individual body parts related to our overall purpose. I believe that Aquinas is wrong to use something other than other functions and purposes; the purpose of the genitals is breeding, contraception is incorrect. Trivial precepts do not directly follow the main rules, they need good judgment and wisdom to accomplish and obey. When there was a reason to ask, Aquinas permitted the change of the second commandment, he called the killing in war "the smaller of two evils".
