hasunoha

What are my memories until now when I passed away...

I'm indebted to you.
Since my husband passed away, every day has been a day where I can't help but see this Hasunoha.

After death, I lost all my memories, and being reborn again was painful, lonely, and scary.

I want to stay with my family now and be together in the rest of the world. I don't want to leave.

Does the Pure Land really exist?
After you pass away, everything will already be over, right?
For some reason... because I can't see life in the other world. Because I don't know... Because I'm unconscious.

Is it really possible to meet someone named Amida?

Why are there so many stories when I can't listen to people who lived in the other world?
It's no wonder.

I always think about whether my husband won't come back

People don't die

 It's really painful not being able to meet someone special.

I don't know when, but we can only meet again when this body is over.

Even if the body is lost, life is not lost.

Your husband always comes close to you.

You don't have to think about anything.

All you have to do is stick to Amida.

Please don't think about it, praise Amida's name and leave it up to me.

You can feel your husband.

I read your question.

It's quite a bit from the text,
For your own feelings,
It's been pretty organized
I wonder if it was broken
I thought so.

Idiots believe.

Actually, the Pure Land of Paradise
Is it there or not,
I don't care about that
That's fine.
That's because believing is important.

My life that never knows tomorrow
I have a body that will turn to nothing tomorrow.

Worry about such things one by one
I would get tired if I were there.
If I could enjoy this moment,
Wouldn't that be fine?
In the unlikely event of death,
Amitaba-sama will pick you up
You are here!
I wonder if they pass away with a smile
When I die, everything is over,
While feeling dark and heartbroken,
Will they pass away with a bitter face
Idiots choose the former.

That's because idiots believe it.

Three degrees of death and lukewarm
It's so easy to accomplish

Repeat reincarnation,
As long as I have a memory,
This is my third death,
This one seems particularly easy to accomplish.

It seems like you said that.

That means
People are reborn,
It turns into death,
What I believe
I'm going to the Pure Land of Paradise.

That's why.

Believe it or not,
Seems like they can attain enlightenment on their own
It's not there.

So, for a fool like this
This is the only one.

People who believe are happy.
That's why I believe it.
There's nothing else.

To the husband who passed away earlier
At the Buddhist altar or in front of the photo
Do amida-sama's dew removal
When I pass away,
Come pick me up!
Let's ask.

About my kind husband
You'll definitely be able to pick them up.

Let's believe it!
A reunion and a new life.

I'm praying for your health and longevity.
Live a long time, husband
Let's make them wait a long time.

The dead and the Pure Land are now working to save you

That's fine. You can leave it as is. You don't have to lie about your feelings. Please write anything honestly on hasunoha.

Buddhism is a religion of wisdom. Faith without wisdom is not Buddhist faith. In other words, forcibly believing “there is” something that you don't know whether it “exists” or “doesn't exist” is not Buddhist religion.

Faith with wisdom means clearing up doubts, and being made to nod here and now, saying, “That was exactly the case.”

It's hard to believe why people say things after death that they don't even understand like they've seen it. That's fine. Me too.

However, it is also a history where people are forced to think about what comes after death.

However, no matter how hard we try, the only thing we can understand is about me right now.

Does the deceased have memories or not, can they meet again or not, does Amida exist or not, does the Pure Land exist or not, is the deceased lost or suffering somewhere or not... is there nothing after death

It's all living people, in other words, what you think. It's not what the dead do.

The deceased is simply questioning you through the fact of the end of their lives.

That's when I notice it.

Beyond whether there are dead people or not, or whether there is a Pure Land or not, there are people who have passed away without leaving me as a “function” that makes me notice who I am now. There is a teaching that explains it.

This is not an afterlife story. “I don't know” after death. It is “me” who makes various assumptions about things that should not be understood. What makes me do that is the “deceased.” If so, the “deceased” is “here” now, not after death... How do you “exist”?

I can only confirm the person who died “for me.”

For me, the dead are beings that awaken me to who I am. And its presence conveys the teachings of the Pure Land to me. The teachings of the Pure Land after death (which seem like) are saving me now.

The division between existence and absence, death and life is all my imagination. I was lost in my imagination.

The deceased and teachings that work beyond presence and absence resonate with me like that as a voiceless voice.

What does a dead person look like to you? Let's check it out slowly.

The Pure Land is “here and now”

Hello. My name is Kameyama Junshi.

“Does the Pure Land really exist or not?” “Does Amida really exist or not?” I can't listen to stories from people who lived in the other world, so why is it possible to explain stories involving the world after death? The answer is that the world after death in Buddhism is something that can be “explained” and not “demonstrated.” When you say “to be preached,” values are included there. How we should live in this world, in other words, our values in life, are “explained” and not “demonstrated” by science. Even if they live in the same environment, there are people who are satisfied with their lives, and there are also people who are more dissatisfied, depending on what kind of values they live with. Similarly, I don't know how the world after death is scientifically shaped, but Buddhism explains how to remember those who died and how I should live now, depending on what kind of value I find in the world after death.

Both “Pure Land” and “Amida” are “functions from the world of enlightenment” in Buddhism. The world of enlightenment is not a world involving only this world. It's a world that also has something to do with the world after death. Therefore, it is easy to think that the Pure Land is the world of the other world, but the Pure Land is not only the world of the other world, but also the world involved in this world. If we do that, the deceased did not go to a world far from us, but “they are here and now.”

At the end of my answer, I would like to introduce a poem composed by Kazuyoshi Nakanishi Tomomi.

“A person leaves, but that person's smile doesn't leave
When a person leaves, that person's words don't go away
When a person leaves, that person's warmth doesn't go away
Even if people leave, they come back into the palm of worship.”

It is precisely because the Pure Land is “a world where the here and now” are involved, that the deceased come back to the palm of their worship.

We're still together

Even if humans die, it won't end.
The soul and consciousness continue. Physical changes are probably called death.
What is called the afterlife has a different dimension, so I have no idea. But you also come from that dimension, and you just go back there.
So, everyone is the same. We're still together.
