Why do we believe in the existence of Buddha

Normally, people are afraid of dying.

What if I could see the “Pure Land” when I was in such a blurry state of consciousness on the verge of death
Isn't it acceptable for people to die with peace of mind?

In short, it's more important to live and die with peace of mind than to live and die with fear.

I know people who say they can see,
I can't see it. and on top of that...

The answer is that when you think of Buddha, oxytocin comes out.

You don't know what I'm saying, do you?

The Buddha I feel is the everyday life I feel through what I can see and the “feel” behind it? That's it.

I think the “universe” always appears in front of me as “my reality.”

But it shouldn't just be the part you can see.

Is it a mechanism that appears right in front of you, or in hard terms, providence?

It is also called Buddha.

But since I don't really understand what I can't see, like pointing a parabolic antenna at the sky,
I have my heart set on the Buddhist world, and I'm looking to see if there are any communications from aliens.

At that time, various experiences and thoughts became a mess, such as good things that have happened until now, bad things that have happened until now, and things that have allowed me to overcome them,

I wonder if it's a sense of security in total?

Oxytocin seems to be a hormone that relieves anxiety and pain, and deepens bonds.

When I explain it, I think ancient people expressed “Buddha” in one word for something that takes such a long time and is something you don't really understand.

With this explanation, my “feeling behind?” I hope it can be conveyed.

I think you can learn Buddhism with a mentor and a friend.
People wander when faced with anguish and the question of why they must live.
There is someone who calls out to me when I'm wandering around.
I hear a voice saying let's learn together.
Looking back, I feel that this is the starting point for learning.

Hello, Chika.

Why do we believe in the existence of the Buddha?
If you analyze God or Buddha scientifically, you can't prove it.
But if believing makes you happy, it also feels like a sociological act where believing is better. Apart from believing or not believing in the Buddha, the purpose is to live properly as a human being.

In the past, many intellectuals who were smarter than me have shown results that it is better to have faith, so people who don't think deeply have faith are more likely to be happier if they believe (laughs)

I'm a scientologist, so I don't believe in strange worlds with ghosts with reason, but even so, I have had many strange experiences that I can't understand with reason. I've also seen a lot of ghosts. If you read the experiences of many rulers, many verses that come to mind will come up, and I think you will realize that there is a Buddha. If you learn what kind of person the Buddha is, the actual entity of the Buddha is not just a human form. If you learn that, I think you'll be able to understand the Buddha's actual feelings.

To see the Buddha is to have many life experiences. Let's work hard together. Gassho

I read your consultation. That's a very important question.

Buddhism began when Gautama Siddatta, who is a real person, awakened to the truth and became Buddha (meaning the one who woke up), and furthermore, he was not the only one who stayed with the truth, but also preached teachings and became a nyorai (meaning of one who came to convey the truth as fact).

In other words, Gautama, the Buddha, has been archaeologically proven as an actual person in history. But whether it feels real to you is another matter.

In other words, “What is a Buddha?” That's the problem.

For example, can you believe Oda Nobunaga actually exists? I think it's like we've never met...
But by knowing historical sites and episodes of feats related to Oda Nobunaga, I think we can somehow imagine Oda Nobunaga's presence there. As for the Buddha, it is important to first know about its existence.

However, in order for a Buddha to be a Buddha, it is not enough just a human figure. The Buddha was one person who woke up to the truth and became a Buddha. The truth is important.

That truth is not an idea or concept invented by humans; it is a law that existed even before the Buddha woke up to it. Just as gravity existed even when Newton did not discover it, the law the Buddha woke up to existed even before its discovery, and it is true precisely because it is a law that applies anytime, anywhere, and to everyone.

This truth is the basis for making a Buddha, and it has come to be understood as a “legal body,” which is the body of an invisible Buddha.

The true Buddha isn't something you can see with your eyes, is it? But it certainly works there as a law.
However, there aren't many clues from our side, and people aiming to become Buddha don't know where to turn and what they can put their hands on.

Therefore, as we dare to understand, what the Buddha gave us its appearance is a figure that can be seen as a Buddha statue in temples and the like. This is called a “convenient corporation.”

There is a saying “lying is convenient,” but that is a lie, and the meaning of “convenient” is “means or procedure.”

The Pure Land of Paradise after death is also “convenient.” All of the Buddha's teachings in words to awaken us to the truth are “convenient.”

Therefore, while we receive the Pure Land of Paradise after death as a story, we can accept it as a function of truth that allows us to surrender ourselves to it. So we can go beyond the contradiction, right?
