Being a vegetarian is a kind of kindness. Being a vegetarian means not killing. There are two kinds of merit, 1 is Yang De, and 2 is Yinde. Yang De means to do good deeds with high profile for fear that others will not know, but it is easy to "miss" merit. Being virtuous means doing good deeds without letting others know or taking them to heart, so that the accumulated virtue will be greatly rewarded and can benefit future generations. Do good deeds and accumulate virtue: filial piety to adoptive parents, serve teachers, be kind and not kill life, and practice ten virtues.
