I read your consultation. Thank you for the hard work of sales.
Sometimes relationships with people cheer us up, and there are moments when we can't help but feel strangely moved.
Isn't 80% or 20% of painful things saved by emotion?
Well, is the relationship something the Buddha gave us?
I mean, there is an entity called me, and furthermore, there is an absolute entity called the Buddha, and that Buddha is watching us
This guy is doing his best, so let's give him a good relationship
This guy has been doing well recently, so let's give him a bad relationship
It is not something that has been arranged.
In other words, I can express the relationship itself between me and the Buddha. As others have said, there is a cause, and an effect is born based on conditions. As a result, I happen to exist, and I am the one born (made up) of relationships. Both I and the Buddha are lucky beings due to a relationship.
The Buddha has the function of telling me how this is a good relationship, when I choose when to have a bad relationship, sometimes dislike it, and how I feel happy and disappointed.
Specifically
When I make an effort and succeed, I am grateful that success is not only due to my strength, but also because of my endless relationships
When things don't go the way I want them to, even though this relationship makes me what makes me, I hate it, and I'm suffering from it, and then it encourages repentance
Expressing such a function as “the Buddha will give it to you” is probably one of the beliefs.
However, at the end of the day, the Buddha is not like a god as an absolute person who controls relationships, and even the Buddha is an auspicious being made up of relationships.
This is the guidance of our ancestors, and this is a test or reward given by the Buddha
Instead of separating each one by my own thoughts, everything is a relationship, and if I wake up that relationships make me who I am, I will be able to open up the “comfortable life” described by Daiji.
Note, of course, “everything is a relationship” is not a theory of fate; it is a view of life and life where I acknowledge my subjectivity and appreciate that both I and my steps are supported by relationships.
