為維持魚體完整性，海鱸魚在市場上的販售多以活體弓魚的方式出售，但唇尾互扯緩慢窒息的鱸魚，因為感到極度疼痛，難耐八至十二小時的痛苦折磨，未能斷氣，因此肌肉會釋放出極大乳酸量毒素，魚體不但快速腐敗腥臭，食用者更容易危害到健康！

園區期望未來每月均能搶救至少一車的海鱸魚，使其免除未來死亡前的綑綁窒息之苦，以此善行為日益嚴峻的疫情祈福祝禱！期待師兄姐的支持與鼓勵，讓批批有緣的海鱸魚因此獲救！支持辦法請洽：

【To pray for pandemic: another truck of sea bass being rescued】(please share and repost)
【Site of release: 11th zone of The Home of Avalokitesvara - sea pond】

To rescue lives is a top priority regardless of time! On Friday night, a truck of fully grown, robust sea bass, weighed around 2 jin each, has escaped death and back to our sanctuary. They luckily avoid the tremendous torture that they would have passed away slowly and painfully with their mouth and tail being tied up to maintain a "U" shape!

To show the integrity of the body of sea bass, the market owners usually tie up the mouth and tail of alive sea bass, which the sea bass would suffocate slowly and their body would be in unbearable pain for over 8-12 hours. As their postures being forcefully maintained, their muscles would release a large amount of toxins and lactic acid that deteriorates the quality of their protein and is detrimental to the consumers' health!

We hope to rescue at least a truck of sea bass every month to let more of them be freed from suffocation and pain of being tied up, and also to dedicate the meritorious virtues of saving lives to pray ending the worrying pandemic soon! Your support and encouragement is crucial for our work!

Remember to dedicate the merits of saving and protecting animals to your karmic creditors and every sentient being in the world by invoking the aid of Buddha:

1. May all sentient beings leave suffering and attain bliss.
2. May the merit and virtue accrued from this work
Adorn the Buddha’s Pure Land,
Repaying the four kinds of kindness above
And aiding those suffering in the three paths below.
May those who see and hear of this
Bring forth the resolve for Bodhi
And when this life is over,
Be born together in the Land of Ultimate Bliss.
3. Followed by any other specific best wishes for specific beings.
