I agree with Liu about the killing part, which is why I do not eat animals to begin with. But I disagree about his views on drugs. Personally, most of the people I know who use them do so for spiritual reasons, and have since become a lot more altruistic in their nature.
What is my view on drugs? I believe in wine to open the heart...
Om nama sivaya
But drugs are often used for simple sensual pleasure.
If it is to avoid knowing the suffering of living beings it might be a lack of compassion. Give money for cocaine to some killer mafia while some children die without medicine is a choice one has to be mindful.
Also it should be remembered that in the process of making wine, some insects might be killed. So in a way you are drinking death, which is one reason why drugs should be limited to minimum. Avoid Mara, Death, the evil one!
