| bio | Metön Sherab Özer (1058–1132) was a Bön master who was instrumental in the establishment of Bön monasticism. One of the earliest advocates for vegetarianism, he criticized meat eating in his Vinaya Compendium, one of the earliest Bön texts on the Vinaya. Metön Sherab Özer’s critique focuses specifically on the question of compassion. (Source: Barstow, The Faults of Meat, 235) |
