There was a law of mercy for living creatures in the early Edo period. It was a world of war that continued for over 100 years, and since killing people became too commonplace, it seems that there is also a theory that consciousness reform could not be carried out without prohibiting it with such momentum.
I don't want to say that it's better than that era; if you look into history in depth, every era is somewhat abnormal.
Well, I often say, “Humans are the only ones who do such abnormal things!” There are arguments, but it's such a big lie.
Lions kill pups, penguins get involved in fights between adults and crush babies to death, and even wild dogs bully bullied young in groups until blood comes out.
After that, I forgot the name, but there are even birds that lay eggs and raise their young in the nest. Moreover, when the eggs hatch, the chick's back is hollow. Use that hollow to lift eggs and chicks that were originally residents of that nest...
What I want to say when I go out of my way to talk that makes it extra dark is that the world does not have a world that is peaceful, equal, and full of love from the beginning. What's more, the world was originally a utopia, but modern people are stupid, so they didn't corrupt it either.
Let's do our best to spread peace and order by shouting love in a terrifying, chaotic world! That's the real world. So if you don't like this kind of society, let's raise a better society! There is no choice but to have that vision.
That's why the Buddha went on an evangelistic journey, Hasunoha has set a mission to “be kind to Japan,” and I also teach Buddhism. I have no choice but to do it.
At that time, what kind of society would you like to see? What special skills do you have for that? What kind of abilities are desirable to acquire in the future? Or if you don't have the confidence to move on your own, who do you sympathize with and support?
Please think about your life while incorporating that kind of vision into your career path. Instead of watching the world while deducting points from a utopia, let's be kind to Japan from a world of 0 starts.
