What is it that pigs go to the temple to bow down? How did the fat pig get famous when he knelt down?
Animals are also spiritual. Pigs practiced in previous lives or had Buddhist karma. Although they have fallen into the pig body in this life, in order to get rid of it, they still know how to convert to the three treasures. So he would go to the temple to bow down, and the lay man would go to the temple and ask Master to convert him three times and recite the Heart Sutra, and then he would leave. Therefore, converting to merit can get rid of the three evil ways.
