Tragic events and Buddha's mercy

Good evening. My name is Kameyama Junshi. I would like to state my own answers to Wakaba-san's questions.

Let's say there's a goldfish in an aquarium here. This goldfish lives in an aquarium filled with water while receiving food. The water in the aquarium is distributed throughout the aquarium, without being distributed anywhere in the aquarium. Naturally, that water is also distributed to goldfish and goldfish food. And thanks to that water, food can float underwater as food, and goldfish can also live.
At this time, the water in the tank is Buddha's mercy, the goldfish are us, and the food is an event in this world. Because of the Buddha's mercy, we are able to live. And in the midst of the Buddha's mercy, various events have occurred. However, the Buddha's mercy was not the cause of the incident. Since there are individual causes of events, even disastrous events in this world occur due to their individual causes.

These are my answers. It was a question I had thought about recently when disastrous incidents, accidents, and natural disasters have occurred. Thank you very much for your question.

“It's around this time today that I feel dark and sad every time I watch TV.”
Certainly, news of painful incidents, accidents, and disasters continues unabated.

But you're heartbroken by it.
I'm sure there are not a few people who feel like you.
In other words, there are also people who witness a disastrous event and develop a kind heart [mercy] that tries to pity and nurture things like you, even though they are heartbroken and hurt.

Come on guys!! It's a time like this, so let's walk along the Bodhisattva Path!
Shinto and Buddhism call out to [good intentions] and [conscience] that everyone has.

Shinto and Buddha don't live on clouds. Something that lives in your heart.
And Buddha is what you should become. It's a goal you should aim for.

Yoshitakeshi mentioned it in the previous question, didn't he? Let's reread it.

> What you have to be careful about is falling into substantive theory. The idea is that after death, there is an actual world called the Pure Land, where they will be reborn, then become a Buddha there, and this time they will be reborn into this world again as a person in order to save someone. This is probably neither the Jodo Shinshu sect nor Buddhism.

Kameyama Master's “Water Is the Buddha's Mercy” this time is exactly the same as Yoshimushi's “Pure Land Works.”

At such times, “if a god or Buddha really exists, such a sad event won't happen”... this is because they think about God and Buddha in terms of reality. Well, you can't understand Buddhism until you get over the chaos here. It is sad that Buddhism has not arrived as Buddhism in this way. “Do you believe in God?” “Do you believe in miracles?” This is a Christian question.

I'll post a few links to break that stereotype.

Finally, I'll also quote Kenseishi Azuma's quotes from “Buchake Temple” on TV.

“I'm really often asked about the Buddha's salvation, but the Buddha won't help you unless you walk on your own feet. So when one disciple asked me what Buddha's salvation was, the Buddha wouldn't wipe away your suffering, he wouldn't pull your hand and lead you to enlightenment, he didn't sympathize with your suffering; I was just preaching the truth. In other words, preach the truth and think about it for yourself. So after all, the Buddha is watching to see if he can walk on his own feet.”

That's why I, myself, want to deliver the Buddha's mercy.
It must have gotten more and more confusing (laughs), but I definitely want you to get over it.

I would like to express my condolences to those who have passed away.

It's a Jodo sect story, though.
They lost their lives in this world, but that by no means did they die out.
I was born in the Pure Land of Paradise.
The Pure Land of Paradise is a country created by Amitabha Buddha.
Amitabha Buddha is a Buddha who guides people who couldn't become Buddhas in this world to the Pure Land of Paradise and teaches them by hand to become Buddhas.
Also, the Pure Land of Paradise is also a place of reunion.
The bereaved families and friends will one day be able to meet the person who died earlier again in the Pure Land of Paradise.
Attempting to save people like this by welcoming them to the Pure Land of Paradise is Amida Buddha's mercy.
Also, Shakyamuni Buddha (Buddha) has taught me a lot of wisdom for living in this world. This is also Shakyamuni Buddha's mercy. There are many people who have been saved from suffering because of that.
There are many other Buddha statues. They are trying to save us in every way.
So please don't worry.
And let's pray together.
May those who have passed away be saved.
