The West Wight is the Western side of the Isle of Wight, situated off the Southern coast of England. There is a thriving Buddhist community on the Island made up of a number of different groups. The West Wight group, or Sangha, is non-denominational and meets weekly to meditate and discuss the Dharma, the Buddha's teachings.
One of our Sangha members, who is a vegan, sent me this link to a video by Rev. Heng Sure who gave a talk at the VegSource Conference in 2003 entitled "Why eat a vegan, a plant-based, diet?" In it he explains in very concise terms the Buddhist take on "Compassionate Eating".
