He provides for the family in this way and he does not want to be different than this. I do not want to kill any longer for food b...

There are few life-forms which can understand The Dharma as explained by The Buddhas, so giving a being the chance to be reborn as a human is indeed "good Kamma".

DNS: " Where have you been?"
Thanks for noticing. Hiking the secular path for a time. Still recovering from the sad loss of Bhante' Samahita.
Recently ran across Bhikkhu Pesala's missive and decided it was time to come home.

Re: Which diet are you?
As far as my dietary history is concerned, there are a few categories missing for me.
Early life from childhood I was mostly and omnivore.
Recently due to chronic kidney, diabetes, cardiovascular disease issues I have migrated to vegetarianism, fruitarian, and fish.
