this phenomena has touched me deeply in my life
this very thing has happened in the Plum Village Zen tradition, hardcore
a vow of not killing which is meant for self reflection and to realize that all beings consume other beings in order to live because that is life, has been coopted into a paragraph on being a vegan
there are 14 vows that have all been slowly modified in this way and the changes increased after TNH had a stroke and more again after he died
as person who has received lay ordination in two Zen traditions, one being Tien Hep (Plum Village), I recite the short and open-minded originals as written by Ven. TNH and reject the rewrites 100% as well as teachers and students in that tradition that follow this trash
oddly and funnily, one of the vows is not to try to force others to believe your views, which they ignore of course
PS the background pic on my profile is the view from Vulture Peak in India where and when I ordained in the PV lineage. it makes me happy and sad
