The meaning of life

I think the meaning of human life is simply that living people think about the meaning without permission. Those that were given life and existed in this world will complete their lives until the end of their lives. Then they inherit lives.

Japanese people often think that people have hearts. Where is it? around the chest. It's the heart.
Everything people think is a function of the brain. It's a delusion.
The brain is free to think freely. I will go on a trip without permission from the past and the future. It can be both unhappy and happy. Anxiety is a state of thinking about the future with your head. Right now, even though there are no problems right now, the brain begins its journey.
A happy life is when the brain does not leave the “now.” Isn't it something to be thankful for being able to live, breathe, and exist in it?

It's not like I've learned it myself, and my head is huge, so I'm sorry that I wasn't able to respond accurately.
However, if people all over the world encounter zazen meditation and can practice it, I think there will be no wars.
I think there are things I can only understand through practice, and there are things I can't talk about to people. We will continue to work hard every day.

Those who prove themselves, such as “me,” “heart,” and “soul,” are called Atman.
The Buddha explains, “We don't have Atman.”
This is called “selflessness.”
Although originally selfless, it seems to me that I am living by misunderstanding that there is an Atman.

As for the meaning of life, this cannot be answered in terms of morality or common sense.
However, since Buddhism is a truth that the Buddha understood, it clearly explains the state of life.
Buddhism preaches reincarnation, so I am taught that my life is a life that has gone through reincarnation.
There are various past lives, such as bugs, celestial beings, and residents of hell.
They have been reincarnated over and over again, and it just so happened that they were born as humans now.
So I don't understand the meaning even if I just look at my current life.
It's the same as not understanding the meaning even if you watch only one episode of the morning drama series, and it's impossible to ignore past lives or future lives and try to come up with an answer only in this life.

The Buddha sees through everything and says “everything is suffering.”
Being reincarnated over and over again is painful, so they persuade us to quickly break free and become a Buddha.

“I don't understand the meaning of my life!” It's our way of being worried and suffering.
They misunderstood that they had an “Atman” they didn't originally have, and they got frustrated and died trying to just get to the bottom of that meaning.
Life would be useless then.
Let's listen to “selflessness,” hear that they are “reincarnated,” and listen to ways to break free from that.
If you ask how to become a Buddha, joy will always be born.

Once upon a time, Obo-san had a person named “Nantenbo.”
I like hanging scrolls, but it's one of Nantenbo-san's axes
“Count the days of Heizaki Shiyuki no Daruma too
“Izuku Go Daredevil No Hassle”
There is something called. This is an axis with a picture of a cute snowman.

Little students also have experience. On a winter day, there is only a slight amount of snow
Even on the day it piled up, roll up the snow and make it bigger little by little,
I got sweaty, and in addition, I even caught a cold,
The fact that I worked so hard to make a snowman is still clear
I remember.

Neighborhood children snowball in the parking lot of our temple
When I saw it being made, I thought, “It's the same.”
I keep thinking about it.

But to be clear, it's a “waste.”
Minami Tenbo said it too. One of them will disappear.
So why work so hard and go to waste?
I got sweaty, even caught a cold,
Forget about even making a snowman in the meantime, and play around.
But when Yuki comes back, roll it up and roll it up.

I think so. I wonder if it's for fun.
Enjoy the present moment. I enjoy wasted work.
Enjoy the pain.

With everything that has been given to me now,
enjoy. To the extent possible.

And then I think. “I want to play again tomorrow!”
This “prayer to think about tomorrow” is what you say
It is also linked to “everyone's happiness.”
“May everyone have a happy tomorrow”
Even if they don't come, I'll pray again at that time.
That's because everyone doesn't know about tomorrow.
I don't know, so “please everyone go ahead and see”
I'm praying. Sachi is joy and fun
You could say that. Joy for everyone, fun for everyone
I hope it is there.
For me, one of your prayers is more important than anything
I think it's “the meaning of life.”
That's how, someone will take care of it,
Even in an uneasy world where you don't know one inch ahead
I think “tomorrow” is coming.
Your prayers might make someone happy.
It might be a waste of time.
Even so, if you don't do it, nothing will happen.
May your anxiety be lightened even a little,
I'm praying again, too. Be at ease. good luck. Gassho

That's a very good conclusion.
It means that you are becoming aware that the attitude of trying to come up with answers through thought and thought itself is the wrong solution.
Even great philosophers cannot gain enlightenment because their brain state is in a state where they only love knowledge and are in a state where they are ❝ thinking ❞.
So, first of all, you couldn't save that thought pedal, so all you have to do is change the way you seek it, make meaning, and stop living in your thoughts.
I also once felt that my thoughts and philosophy were limited, and I stopped pedaling knowledge.
No matter how good a philosophy or theory is, there is no salvation as long as it pushes the pedal of thought and thought. That's why Zen monks do zazen instead of thinking.
That's why both Shakyamuni and Dogen Zenji abandoned their thoughts and gained enlightenment through meditation and unthinking by looking at the facts. The state of the brain called enlightenment and nirvana is not a state of thought.
Even if you learn Buddhism, if you learn Buddhism in a way that you don't look at your own truth at all, as if you were studying philosophy, and accumulate knowledge by making mistakes with external affairs or academics, even monks will not reach enlightenment.
Therefore, by leaving thought, humans can see facts for the first time, and they can be saved.
To leave your thoughts is to stop living in a world of thoughts and live the facts before your thoughts. This was shown by Dogen Zenji as being reckless.

When Daoyuan Zenji was studying sutras in China, a Chinese Zen monk asked a question.
The monk “The young monk Yo from Nipon, is Omae, who only reads boogie books for Nan?”
Dogen “I want to go back to my country and save people”
Monk: “What is that for?”
Dogen “... I wonder if a lot of people can be saved...”
Monk “... what is it for?”
road “... wow.”
Monk “After all, what do you need? (After all, what is Alka for?)”
Road “...”
The answer to this is “for what?” I'm not saying you should bring cool logic to it.
It means stop giving reasons and wake up to the truth.
➡ What is Dogen Bi Kyouge searching for.

Anyone who transcends and leaves thought and logic and lives in fact will reach the world before thought = enlightenment. Even if you know this logic, don't forget that many people still lose their way because they choose to love knowledge.
Also, dive in and ask questions.

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

“Life”... it's really strange...

One thing I can say is that having life and being alive also means being supported and helped by various things and things.

We are very incapable of surviving and spinning our lives on our own. Each of us is somehow made up of the presence of others and being supported, helped, and kept alive in countless relationships.

It also means that you too can support and help others.

I will explain that the state of this world, which cannot exist or survive without the presence of others, is made up of “luck” in Buddhism.

Also, Damiya is a heart of “mercy,” which is important in Buddhism, for being worried about people who have suffered from disastrous accidents, natural disasters, wars, poverty, etc., and has mercy, and even thought “if everyone can live at least happily,” and I am truly grateful.

Also, it would be even more appreciated and precious if you could support and help with something you can do so that those who are suffering are somehow saved due to that sense of mercy.

Of course, the meaning of “life” will also be different depending on each person's values, but what I can only say is that it is absolutely impossible to keep a life alive without a relationship of support and help, and by cultivating feelings of humility and gratitude from knowing it, while thinking about the state of all “life,” if there are people in need or suffering, they can support and help them with something they can do, and also when they are in trouble themselves You will be able to live your life being supported and helped during difficult times. First, let's start by noticing this, and then think about its deep meaning together little by little while we are learning and practicing various things about Buddhism.

Regarding “anxiety,” I hope you can also refer back to the humble answers to the questions below when you have time.

“About anxiety and fear”

I pray for good deeds.

Kawaguchi Hidetoshi Gassho

The character for life is life on command. Someone making someone do something.
Due to the convenience of adjusting the balance of the entire universe, it is probably necessary for you to live.
The universe is making sure you don't die.
Life is also called Kotobuki.
It was stated in old Buddhist books that death was established when Kotobuki and wisdom separated.
For example, when a person dies, if suki and wisdom are separated from their toes, foot death is established.
So, I think life (life) is all the causal factors and external factors that cause the universe to keep its feet alive.
So, heat is warmth, that is, the energy that the foot cells themselves have.
Intellect is awareness and mind, isn't it?
Replace the tip of your foot with yourself.
There are people other than you trying to keep you alive. (lifespan)
You still have energy in your own physical body. ()
Your recognition software is installed and running in every corner of your body. (awareness)
The trouble is, the conditions for death are still not met.
Lifespan is particularly difficult, and maybe it would be better for the universe to let you still live.
