What is the antonym of past life?

The opposite is redemption, isn't it?

My name is Kameyama Junshi. I'm a monk of the Jodo Shinshu sect, but I'm not familiar with religious matters. So, I don't know if what I'm about to say is correct from a true Buddhist standpoint. If there is a religious error in my answer, I would like the other responding monks to correct it. (Of course, I myself take responsibility for responding to my own answers.)

I think the antonym for “death” is “reincarnation.” This is because “death” means being born in a world of enlightenment, while being born in a lost world is “reincarnation.”

Since “death” in the Jodo Shinshu sect is born as a Buddha in a world of enlightenment, “death” can be said to be the fruit of both phase conversion (*Amida Nyorai works to cause us sentient beings to pass away in the Pure Land) and phase reduction (*the function that Amida Nyorai gives to those who have passed away in the Pure Land, returning back to the lost world and saving us sentient beings). There is no death with only common phase, nor death with only common phase return. After passing away in the Pure Land, I don't think the process of returning to the government will begin next. For those who passed away in the Pure Land, phase conversion is also at work. Buddhism, and Mahayana Buddhism in particular, preaches “self-interest, immediate benefit, etc.” Now, if reciprocal rotation and phase reduction are applied to these “self-interest” and “altruism,” reciprocal rotation is a function belonging to “self-interest,” and phase reduction is a function belonging to “altruism.” Therefore, it must be an “immediate return to normal phase.”

If you do that, a return to the government will never be born again as a “lost being” in this world. If you are born as an “hesitant being,” how can that person be able to perform satisfactory altruism? I think that the return of sangsang has become a nembutsu called “Namu Amida Buddha,” and they are encouraging us. The nembutsu called “Namu Amida Buddha,” which I praise every day, is a call from Amida Nyorai, and at the same time, it is also a call from deceased grandparents, etc. who passed away in the Pure Land.

“Death” is the result of a return to one's true power.
Both “infrequent phase” and “phase reduction” are both miraculous effects of original power conversion, so I feel a slight sense of incongruity with the premise that [if death were the result of normal phase conversion...].

> There is reciprocation of common law, but what is equivalent to past death as an antonym?
It's easy if you think of two types of rotation as opposites.
“The Pure Land of Osho” = “past phase,” and “the unclean phase of the returned country” = “return phase,” and it's fine to think that “past phase” and “past phase” mean the same thing.
So, in this case, the opposite of “death” is equivalent to “return.”

vaguely “what is the antonym of past life?” In response to the question, I don't think it's wrong even if it's reincarnation.
It's a difficult question to answer if you don't have any assumptions about the question.

:Postscript
You're studying hard, aren't you?
“Return of the Unclean Country” by Kyorai Kaiko and “Return of Life and Death” by Masanobu Masanobu are the same return, but the meaning is different.
There is a character limit here, so please ask new questions again.

I don't think Hasunoha intended these academic questions in specific denominations...

My conclusion is as I wrote in the title.

I can't say that I learned Buddhist doctrine professionally, so it's not a very confident answer.
As you can see in the question, the Jodomon people probably think of it as a “return to the minister.” But if the places where people pass away are limited to the Western Pure Land, that is probably enough. However, considering that the term deceased is widely used in Mahayana Buddhism in general, I thought there might be answers other than “return, return” or “death, return.”

At first, I thought it was “reincarnation.” But I've rethought it. In Abhidharma Buddhism, the opposite word of “reincarnation” should be “liberation.” I can't explain it well, but liberation and death are different concepts even though they seem similar. Is it OK to use the opposite word of “death” as “reincarnation”? I'm at a loss.

I'm from the Soto sect, so I don't use the term “return to the minister”, and I don't know much about it. However, if “death and death” is not captured spatially, I remember that the term “sugyu bodhi, demeaning sentient beings” is often used in the Zen sect in a sense close to reciprocation.

If you think of crossing from this world to the next, and from here to the equinox, as “death,” it may also be said that staying in this world without crossing is the opposite word. With that in mind, the conclusion I drew was “Maybe Mujujo Nirvana.”
