Up until now, I've asked a lot of questions about monks. Thank you all for your kind responses 🙇🏻🙇🏻🙇🏻
I have another question, but recently there was a monk who was arrested for inciting driving. I thought monks were wonderful people who explained their teachings, but there are bad monks among them...
I've heard that some monks ask for expensive money from their parishioners...
Are there actually notorious monks around Hasunoha monks?
They're not around me, are they?
Even so, that boy was stripped of his license. Furthermore, I think it would be nice to practice again at Motoyama.
There are a lot of bad boys. There are many examples, such as when they did something similar to the boy who was caught driving instigated, and the wife came back affectionate (Zen), or my husband and wife, who I always say, the matchmaker and his wife. If you search on channel 2, various monks have been caught, right?
This seems to have been the same even when the Buddha was still alive, and various examples appear in Buddhist scriptures.
But it's the same in other occupations. There isn't a day when school teachers don't get bogged down, and they are frequently introduced on a site called “Teacher Scandal Retsuden.”
By knowing bad cases, it is important to prevent damage from vices ●● that definitely exist in society, and to have prior knowledge about how to deal with them after getting caught. For example, due to false charges, there were times when high-ranking bureaucrats were caught on innocent charges and forced to confess, and even evidence was fabricated and almost made up as the culprit. I don't know when or what will cause my innocent self to fall behind. So it's probably better to know how the dark parts of society work. You'll also be able to see how to deal with it from there.
However, even if you know about the existence of unscrupulous boys, you can't get anything from Buddhism. It's the same as not increasing your vocabulary of English words even if you know that your school teacher has been arrested. If you use the same amount of time, it's much more productive to learn the Buddha's teachings than to investigate the actual situation of unscrupulous monks.
I'm not saying “monks are humans too.” In reality, there are monks who get involved in this inciting driving and various misdeeds. There are probably some people who say they have unexpectedly committed a crime, but there are also people who cannot believe that they are walking that path by preaching Buddhism.
When I feel something like that, I just walk away, saying that we're not the ones to walk together. Then, in situations where you can't meet a good master, you go back to the original teachings of Buddha and the teachings of your grandfather. Unless they raise the hurdles themselves, monks tend to be pampered, their heads are bowed down by people, and misunderstood as if they are really great people. Whether you're a monk or not, I still think that if you don't make an effort to make up your mind, you'll do bad things or be tempted by bad paths. Unfortunately, this is an age where there are “no way monks.” Being suspicious or denying all monks is extreme, but please judge by looking at their daily lives and actions.
Among hermitage monks who don't usually go outside, there are people who have deep authentic wisdom.
The person who was taken up as a sensation this time was probably someone who never looked back at the good and evil of things, or their own actions. I'm sorry, sad, and outraged.
Namu Amida Buddha
Certainly monks
I'm more in touch with the sutras than the general public
If you get into that kind of situation
The side of the villain is revealed.
There aren't always “good people”
I always think there aren't any bad people,
Just because the expectations of those around you are high
What about monks and teachers
It's going to stand out, isn't it?
