A Special Tibetan Culture: Most Tibetan People Don’t Eat Fish, Here Are the Reasons.(Interview)

Tashi Delek!
Many people who have not been to Tibet are curious about what we eat when living in such a highland.
Our diet contains both foods unique to the Tibetan plateau, such as tsampa made from barley, yak meat, and butter tea, as well as a growing number of cuisines from other regions.
However, there is one thing that most Tibetans do not eat.
That is fish.
Why don't Tibetans eat fish? Today I will take you to see the answer of the local Tibetans in Lhasa.
I randomly interviewed some locals on the street in Lhasa city, both men and women, old and young, and none of them would eat fish.
We believe every single fish in Tibet is under the blessing of holy Mount Kailash. And they are too small that not worth being eaten by one person. Since fish has many lives, killing a fish is a very big sin. So we didn't have the habit of eating fish since we were young.
In addition to this, I also followed a Tibetan friend I met at the fish market and went to the river in Lhalu Wetland behind the Potala Palace to release fish.
We hope this small work of kindness will bring some blessings to the world suffering from COVID-19.

    Hello, this is Jamyang. This video is about why our Tibetan people don’t eat fish. I’m a Buddhist, I don’t eat fish. Honestly, I tried once by accident and vomit a lot in the night. So, I prayed for all of the fish in the market. 🙏 I hope you could share with me your culture about eating if you have some special custom. 😜 Please kindly forward my video to your friends if you like my video. Thank you very much for all of your support. All my blessing to you all.❤️

It gives freedom of thought and action and teaches one to be tolerant and frees one from regementations. That is why Hinduism has survived inspite of the daunting challenges of the past and present.

    Such a lovely video! Thoroughly enjoyed the whole content! As a Sherpa born and raised in Kathmandu Nepal, I can vividly remember my mother strictly prohibiting my siblings and myself from holding an aquarium in tje house. Like Tibetan Buddhist, she believed if we kept fish as pets and if they die in our care, that'll be a big sin. She also never cooked fish in the house! No matter how much I urged or threatened (at least tried to) her to cook fish because my adolescent taste buds wanted to have a taste. She always tells me it's a very big sin to kill and eat fish. I would be lying if I say that I haven't eaten fish! But I now understand the rationale behind my mom's reasonings. Not only it stems from the cultural and spiritual values of Buddhism, but it equally serves an economic and sustainable value in the society. Having said that, I have no hate or dislike towards people who eat fish. Grew up with Newars in Kathmandu who cook fish in almost every celebrations and festivities!! Great work once again! Will follow your videos to be posted about Tibetan Buddhism!

Don't just sit there neutralized by blissful ignorance ! "Beware of the genetic-molesting 'leaven' (artificial sugar-coated lie bull HOOKS) of the so-called 'authorities' and scribes trying to sell us all out to the highest bidders." Actually jesus flipped out on the diabolical barbaric practice of selling innocent critters to be kosher slaughtered on the altar in the temple --- as a bogus way for schmuck human-cattle to have their 'sins' forgiven. the original sin was being schmuck enough to eat the forbidden fruit eggs and innocent critters like snakes do . (suffering causes suffering) Eating innocent critters is very bad karma indeed . thank goodness jesus stuck his own neck out to remind us that forgiveness depends on how we treat even the least of our bretheren ... (How would you like it if nobody cared enough to help you get out of the death-trap pits and snares ?) Man wouldn't it be great if someone else would die so that nobody would ever be held accountable for any sins anymore ? --- sure looks like spreading the other cheek further for the pedophile preistclass to rape everything more easily is backfiring big time ... Too bad --- Easy believers make it way too easy for the great deceivers... The last thing jesus wants to see when he returns with a serious vengence is a another death worshipping meat-cult double-cross...

    Releasing ( fishes) or other bigger animals is a common practice in Mahayana Buddhism. If you are a Buddhist practitioner naturally you will adopt a vegetarian diet to abstain from taking animals lives. The criteria of compassion & abstain from killings other beings are one of the tenets of Buddhism. The 5 precepts: 1.) Abstain from killings, 2. )Abstain from sexual misconduct, 3.) Abstain from lying ( dishonest), 4.) No stealing, 5.) Abstain from taking intoxicants. Our world is in topsy turvy mainly due to killings karma of wanton killings of people & animals.

    Dear Jamyang, Thank you for your video, I really appreciate your work and specially thank you for interviewing our friends Tibetans and accompanying the person who released those fish! As you may have noticed, in most of the entrances of the monasteries you will find a depiction of the wheel of life (in Tibetan, sipa korlo). In the center of the wheel, you can see three animals: pig, rooster and snake. Right on the outside of the three animals you see some people going up as a result of positive actions and some others going down as the result of engaging in negative actions. In the outer rings of the wheel we can find the depiction of the six worlds (hells, hungry ghosts, animals, humans, demi gods and gods) and in the very outer ring there are the 12 interdependent links. According to the teachings of our Lord Buddha, the pig represents ignorance and confusion, rooster is related to selfish desire and snake or fish are symbols of anger. Anger, desire and ignorance are the so called three poisons which are the source of our suffering. This wheel is also a reminder of the essence of the Buddha’s teaching: “practice virtue throughly, do not engage in non-virtue, train your mind completely, this is the teaching of the Buddha’. Based on this, it is said that eating chicken or eggs increases our selfish desire, eating pork increases our ignorance and confusion and eating fish or snake - which are water animals -increases our selfish aggression or anger. Dear Jamyang, I kindly request you to consider this and decrease your consumption of meat, specially on sacred days, like full and new moon and the 8th day of the lunar calendar. I know you love eating meat, I’ve seen many times how you enjoy 😀. I am happy you have a good time but as you are a wonderful person and we care for you and your health and as I also know you love all sentient beings I would like to request you to reduce the cause of pain of our mothers. The full moon is Buddha Amitabha Day, New Moon is Shakyamuni Day and 8th or half moon is Medicine Buddha Day. Buddha Amitabha protects us from famine and shortage, Buddha Shakyamuni protects us from fights and war and Medicine Buddha protects us from illness and epidemics. We as human beings are often tormented by shortage (which is caused by selfish desire) outer and inner conflicts (which are triggered by anger) and illness and diseases (which are caused by confusion and ignorance). As you already know, we have the power to train our mind and be of benefit for our precious mother beings - thinking of this please consider decreasing your meat consumption, for your own health and happiness! Sending you all my best wishes, wish you continue having wonderful travels around Tibet making everyone happy🙏❤️

    I am a han Chinese .I have my opinion about why tibetan don't eat fish .because tibetan used to throw people's corpse to the river ,actually the river is tibetan people's cemetery .especially the people in lhasa don't eat fish .they choose to bury elder's corpse under the river ,so the tibetan bear or wolf can't smell the corpse and eat it ,if tibetan bear or wolf eat too much human corpse ,they will be very dangerous to the elder's offsprings .at this ,I salute to the tibetan ancestors ,how they try to do their best to help their offsprings ,even after they die ,they don't want to waste the precious grassland or farm land which is left for their offsprings to live ,and let their corpse down in the river rest in peace forever ,so deep wisdom and affection in it .and in the deepest level of tibetan people's soul their ancestors are in that fish , they saw the vultures take their ancestors's body fly to the sky ,then they thought their ancestors's corpse must be eaten by fish under the river . not only because of the religion ,but also they have the same affection to their ancestors (fish),though they can't say why they don't eat fish clearly ,this is the real reason .

    Very nice to see the loving and warm interaction of this young man and his people. But even though the title said otherwise, I expected and waited with baited breath to hear from Tibetans who do eat fish and what was their rationale for doing so while living in that culture. Edit: There was quite a bit of dead fish in that fish market. I would be interested to hear from fishermen as well about their industry.
