Is it good to be born a “person” in reincarnation?

Buddha explained that the Rikudo Reincarnation itself is suffering, and that liberation from the Rikudo Reincarnation is nirvana.

Nice to meet you, Pochiko.

Living with instincts may seem easy at first glance.

It is human nature to threaten and hurt each other, and this is part of the wild instincts within humans.
Animals compete for boundaries with other animals in order to reproduce, and if necessary for their own survival, even parents and children eat together.
Plants also live on land where they reproduce in order to preserve their species while constantly selecting other plants.

People's selfish eyes may reflect things like “it's fine to drink” and “it's nice to be peaceful,” but animals and plants are constantly competing for survival more fiercely than humans.

In Buddhism, the world of conflict is called “Shura,” but if people fight, it's Shura, and if they live according to their instincts, it's a “damn thing,” and the world you see there is “hell.”

We also live by eating animals and vegetables, but since eating for survival is natural providence, we don't call this evil.

However, it can also be said that people already look above animals when they kill animals more than necessary, or when people buy and sell animals and make them pets without permission.

If you look at other animals and plants, animals are nothing but objects of food and whether they can or cannot coexist.

However, keeping that animal close at hand and loving it is something only humans can do.
Humans are certainly fighting animals, but fighting is an animal that can be called evil.

Buddhism explains that only people can become Buddhas.

You can think about things, suffer, and act in response to them.
I can see things, think they're beautiful, pour love on others than myself, endure when necessary, and still feel happy.
These are things that only humans can do.
Being able not only to put ourselves on the shelf and look at it, but also to put ourselves down is an ability that only humans have.

However, even if they are born as humans, if they just eat, reproduce, and just fight, they may be inferior to animals because they have amazing abilities.

Animals live to the fullest to eat every day.
If you feel that people aren't moving forward in life, it may be because you feel that you aren't living to the fullest.

Since you were born as a human being, how to live as a person to the fullest is important.

Being born as a human is a very rare thing.

First, I'd like to confirm this.

Reincarnation itself is an idea not originally in Buddhism
It's been said.

Hell, Gaki, Beast, Shura, Humans, and Heaven called the Rikudo (respectively,
The fact that we are touring (although there are other ways to say it)
It's probably a simple explanation of reincarnation.

If you arrange the six paths from bad to good, they will be in the order I wrote earlier
However, each human being suffers so that they cannot escape the four tribulations
There is.

Even in heaven, there is suffering that is called the Five Decline of Tenjin, and from anguish
It's impossible to break free.

Therefore, animals and humans both have suffering, regardless of the degree of suffering
In that sense, it can probably be said that it won't change.

As others have answered, the six paths all involve suffering, and that suffering
Getting out of there is nirvana, and as life and death (shouji) are repeated,
I can't help but suffer.

In that sense, I don't know which is better, beasts or humans
It's not a matter of mari, and “life and death (Shutsuri Shoji)” is important
That's probably what it comes down to.

Only humans can do this.

In that sense, being born as a human being, grieving, and suffering
It probably has a big meaning.

I'm Tange, the Zen monk.
Even though it's not a dog or a cat, thinking about such a thing itself is an imposing Rikudo Reincarnation ❝ like ❞ Mo Soar Al. It is said that falling into such thoughts is the only way to fall into the six ways.
This is something I personally think, but I think it would be better to stop interpreting reincarnation itself because fantasies and facts are mixed up and correct thinking is lost for your sake.
Of course, before, I also thought there was such a reincarnation.
However, if you think about it calmly, there is no basis for reincarnation in the world after death.
Who thought of that in the first place? That's it.
If you say in public that there is no basis or anything that cannot be proven, you will be ridiculed as “Buddhism is a false religion that praises things that have not been confirmed as if they were true,” and people won't believe them.
Far from being aware, it creates hesitation.
Therefore, I think the Rikudo Thought should be read as a moral teaching for improving the state of mind, for preventing people from doing bad things, such as ancient Indian indigenous thought, and Japan's Heavenly Hell Anosei Thought.
I believe that getting out of such a swamp of thought through clear thinking, honest opinion, and correct thinking is a real relief from the Rikudo Reincarnation.
Anpanman isn't real either. However, it is a good teaching material for teaching justice and evil.
The Buddha's teaching is “Are you going to be reincarnated?” Instead, emphasis is placed on “free yourself from reincarnation.”
In Zen, it is explained as follows. Below, for your reference,
to this heart,
If you suffer, it's hell
If You Want Me, Hungry Demon
If you go out of your way, damn it
If you fight, Shura
If you live in a sense of relativity, you're a human
Neverlasting Joy Is Heavenly
Go one step further than this six-way reincarnation.
If You Leave Your Mind
If you realize something by chance, then you know it
If you can lead people, it's a bodhisattva
If you attain supreme enlightenment, Buddha

The words of Honen Shonin, who founded the Jodo sect (one paper short story), are as follows.
“Receive an injured human body (carrot)
Meet the Aigataki Hongan,
Start (go) from Okoshigataki Doshin (Doshin)
Get away from Hanaregataki Reincarnation Village,
Born to pass away in the Pure Land
Pleasure within joy.”
It is a thankful (precious) thing to be born into a human body in the midst of repeated reincarnation.

Furthermore, it seems that it is joy in joy to wake up Doshin (a heart that wants to be enlightened), break away from the Rikudo Reincarnation, and be born in the Pure Land (a world where one can be enlightened).
