The cost of living

Isn't living a pretty bad cost performance?

I'm a college student.
There wasn't anything I particularly disliked, but it didn't mean there was anything I wanted to do.

Even if you don't want to live, you have to eat, do activities, and get involved with people even if you don't want to live, as long as you don't die, don't you?
I consume energy even though I don't have anything in particular I want to do, and I have to replenish my energy.
I think the cost performance is insanely bad.

I wish there was a quick way to make it disappear. Or someone please turn it off.

Why do we have to live? Is it an obligation to live? If it were a right, I could relinquish it...

How to break free from reincarnation

In Buddhism, we believe that even after we die, if our worries remain, we will be reincarnated.
In order to graduate from being a living being without reincarnation, it is necessary to practice, understand the truth, and get rid of worries.
If you really want to be enlightened, you need to keep the commandments and practice meditation.
However, in the Jodo sect, etc., it is difficult to understand in this world, so there is also a belief that once you are born in the Pure Land of Paradise in the next life, you will train in earnest in the Pure Land that is easy to understand.

The way to improve cost performance is to use it.

Thank you for your question.

Is living bad for money?
You mean the cost effectiveness of living.
I see, I don't do anything, I have to eat even though I don't want to do anything, I have to do something.
I'm not doing anything, so my body should stop driving, but my body doesn't rest.
That's why it consumes energy.
I think I don't do anything or want to do anything, but my body is trying to live on its own.
It would certainly be nice if you could adjust it yourself.

However, cells are constantly being reborn, constantly changing, and no two people are the same again.
Even if they look the same, you'll never meet the same self again.
Nice to meet everyone I meet.
This is because they all operate without permission in places other than one's own consciousness.
After all, this body is my own, and maybe it's not my own.

It's up to me to make life worse or better at cost performance.
Your body continues to be active against your own will, so if you don't use that body, your cost performance will inevitably deteriorate.
However, apart from my own intentions, my body continues to be active in an attempt to live.
I'll use it a lot to improve cost performance.

Hello Sakusakupanda.

I see! If you really think that, there is no choice but to practice ascetic practices and free yourself from reincarnation. Even if you say “erase existence,” the body will remain until it runs out, but I don't think it will be born again.

> Someone please turn it off

In Buddhism, it is explained that “there is no liberation due to others,” so I think it will be difficult if Pandas do training and seize the opportunity to be freed.

Well, conversely, even though Panda herself thinks it's useless to live, now that she was born into this world, she says, “I want to live! I want to be born!” It means that they still have an obsession with life.

In that sense, I think most people are born out of necessity rather than “why do we live or why do we have an obligation?”

For example, it's like sweets or alcohol. When I say it, “Don't get fat ~ it's bad for your health ~” At the time, I think, “OK, let's stop with this,” but before you know it, you've been drinking and eating again.

I think the same thing is happening even after my body is destroyed. I thought I'd live my last life, but due to worries such as desire, anger, and regret, I finally came back to life in this world. I think their afflictions and relationships have an impact on where they are born and what they look like.

“So, is it your own will that you be born?” Speaking of, it's not just about the will that can be controlled that much, so it's also largely due to various relationships. Of course, there is also a will that can be controlled. This kind of will is called “action” in Buddhism. Then, write that you will practice the line, and it's called “ascetic practice.”

From another point of view, you might think about the cost performance of living, but something is certain. It says, “We all hate suffering!” That's it. So, what we can do now is how we can conquer and destroy suffering. If suffering can be destroyed, the cost will always be zero, so there will be no need for calculation. To that end, there is ascetic practice.

There may have been many stories that were hard to realize, but while I was a college student, I thought, “What does living mean?” Please think carefully about that in that manner! (^^)!
