I want to spread the essence of Buddhism

In the Jodo Shinshu sect, “Dharma” and “sermon” are called “intermediaries.”
Intermediary means communicating the intentions of one to the other between them.
In other words, don't let your personal opinions come in along the way.

For example, if Mr. A says, “Please take over with □□,” you must tell them the content as it is.
If you tell someone by changing □□□ to △△△ without permission, that would be wrong.
It's like a postman rewriting a letter without permission and handing it to the other party.

Buddhism is the Buddha's teachings, and those teachings are explained in the sutras.
Therefore, I think it is most important to continue with the contents of the sutras as they are.

When I was talking about Buddhism with a senior, he said, “I think it's 00.”
Then that senior said, “Why do you think 00? Where in which sutras are they preached?” I was asked.
I couldn't answer.
Then he said, “Of course I can't answer. I was admonished, “That's because it's your selfish idea, and it's not a Buddhist teaching.”

“What I think” is not a Buddhist teaching.
I was taught that answering “what does the Buddha (or Buddha) say” is a monk's job.

The most important thing is to continue what is explained in the sutras.
Needless to say, you have to read the sutras carefully to do that.
This is my own problem, and I always say it to myself, but I'm sad that I can't read it easily.
I would like to study hard and do my best so that I can speak the Dharma more thoroughly.

I'm wondering if there are sectarian ones,
When you answer the words of the sutras as they are,
When chewing up an idea and communicating it, carefully examine it yourself
I'm telling you a story.

Even if you say “everyone dies” straight to a child
It's “what here,” and conversely, don't make them afraid
That's why.

To Sutanipata 807
Even if it's someone you met in your dream,
Once you wake up, you can't look at him anymore.
Similarly, if even someone you loved dies and leaves this world,
I can't watch it again anymore. = translated by Nakamura Hajime

There is such a thing. If you just look at these words,
At first glance, it's cold, but it seems to show the truth as it is
I can see it.
However,
When Shakyamuni lost two important disciples at the same time,
“This place without two people is empty even when everyone is full.”
= Corresponding Sutra IXVII 14, 3 =
As you can see, Shakyamuni also lost an important disciple,
It leaves behind words of deep sorrow.

Behind the words in the sutras lies the “heart” of Shakyamuni.

Thinking about that heart, not quite once
Even if it's someone you met in your dream,
Once you wake up, you can't look at him anymore.
Similarly, if even someone you loved dies and leaves this world,
I can't watch it again anymore.

Please try chanting it.
I'm sure it looks completely different from when I first chanted it as it is
It should show up. I feel the warmth of Shakyamuni.

Rather than wanting to convince people, elementary school students
What should I do to make people feel the heart of Shakyamuni
I'm trying to tell a story while thinking.
It's so frustrating not being able to do so well.

It is very important to convey the scriptures as they are.

But if the person communicating doesn't feel “warmth” in those words,
The sutras also contain words that can hurt people.

To do that, slowly chew through each word,
It is digested in one's own body, which means endless learning is necessary
Let's become one. This is also a reflection on myself.

By the way,
It's called “Buddha Ga Sensei” as a recommended book for elementary school students
I have picture books.
If you don't mind, please take a look.

Above all, I hope your days of Buddha relationships are at ease.
whoa whoa whoa. Gassho

Everyone has demands to be free, to be happy, to feel safe, and to eliminate stress.
Shall I call it a sacred request?
Desire for freedom, desire for self-exploration, desire for self-improvement, desire to know the truth, desire to remember, desire to gain peace. The more people who have that request, the more fluently it will be conveyed.
Even if you don't have one, there's no one who doesn't want to be free from worries and stress.
It would be nice if you could actually be saved from your worries and stress with Buddhism.
And by talking about the experience, mechanism, and mechanism of being saved as it is, it can be conveyed exactly as it is.
If you think of it as an idealism, you won't be saved.
You can really, really save yourself from trouble.
It's about really having that kind of experience.
If you do that, the tea will overflow like a spring.

Mr. Shu (Shu)

This is Kawaguchi Hidetoshi. This is my humble answer to the question.

The thought “I want to spread the essence of Buddhism” and “I want to talk about Buddhism to someone else who is suffering right now” is truly appreciated and precious. I am profoundly grateful for your mercy. The name “” doesn't suit you, who has such a kind heart. I hope you could change it to the name “beauty (good).”

It's really difficult to tell about Buddhism... and of course it's unavoidable that personal opinions and misconceptions get involved... the reason is, of course, that we ordinary people still don't have enough ascetic practice, and our understanding of truth is hindered by worries and ignorance.

Also, since the teachings of Buddhism are based on ad-hoc theory and convenience, there are places where it is difficult to get the other person to understand it, even if you understand it correctly. See my humble answer below for this.

Question “Are Buddha's teachings difficult to convey?”
http://blog.livedoor.jp/hasunoha_kawaguchi/archives/1022839055.html

Well... I'm an immature person with little knowledge, but I'd like to tell you about something I can tell you in a humble way, so I'm continuing my devotion to Buddhist practice.

Among them, after verifying my own satisfaction, I always want to use metaphors as much as possible and convey them in an easy-to-understand manner. However, we are aware that careful considerations must be made as much as possible so as not to cause misunderstandings or go in the wrong direction.

There are alms as an ascetic practice of Rokuharamitsu that we should work on, and there are three of those offerings, “zaishi,” “lawlessness,” and “fearless implementation,” and what Yoshi (Yoshi) is trying to work on this time is exactly about “enforcing the law” and “fearless execution,” but although no one can do it perfectly from the beginning, don't be self-righteous or complacent, and don't fall into arrogance, arrogance, or arrogance, let them learn even more As a recipient, I would be grateful if you could work on it with humble awareness.
