It would be nice if the world disappeared

Astronomy says that the Earth will last 5 billion years.

In other words, the society and living things that exist today will all be gone. It becomes worthless.

Painful things happen every day in the world.
Deny that, this world is fun! Even so, the Earth will disappear.

There are so many bad things in the world.
I always think it would be good if not only humans but all living things, insects, and animals became extinct, but that will be true in 5 billion years.

In other words, we all live and act blindly without any purpose in a worthless world.

I still have a lifespan, but I don't want to contribute to this world, and I've lost my motivation and desire to be kind to people.
I think the reason is because they are angry.
That's because even though I didn't want to be born, I was born and experienced this disgusting world to the point of disgusting.

But it makes me feel that it's not good, and it becomes painful.
Also, even if you cause harm to others, you feel guilty, so you live without bothering others at all.
However, there are so many people in the world who make money or earn money by harming others; for example, companies such as the real estate industry or the human resources department are exploiting people. There are so many people in the world who are fine exploiting others, and even though I have a feeling that the world should perish, I have a feeling that I am a weak person who can't even harm others, so I live without being able to give benefit or contribution to anything and without causing harm, and it's painful to express my anger by holding a grudge against this world.

Anger doesn't create anything

There's no such thing as being noble at work. Please take a look at the work of people who actually work in the real estate business or temporary staffing business. Also, take a look at the state of those customers and temporary registrants. How hard is it in the real estate business to get people to rent comfortably, and how much trouble does the temporary staffing business have to hire registrants? These jobs make a huge contribution to society, and I notice a reality that is far from “exploitation.” It's not something I imagined in my head without doing proper research.

Giving to others is also an ascetic practice for oneself

First of all, my problems and the social issues surrounding me are separate
What is replacing the cause of one's suffering with a social problem
The wrong way of thinking is chained one after another

It would be nice if the world disappeared
It would be nice if I didn't exist
These social destructive impulses and self-destructive impulses are the result of that misguided chain of thought.

The only thing you can change in this world is your inner self and your actions
By asking
I met for the first time
There is some kind of awareness or fulfillment
And it is that experience that becomes a variety of “things and things”
It makes me realize that it has meaning

When you're looking for bad factors outside
It's something that lacks effort
I would like to call attention to this as a “complaint” that destroys oneself in Buddhism

It seems like they've been caught up in whether it's worth it or not
Value is a sense unique to humans based on trading something, and it hasn't existed in the natural world since the beginning

This world is in mud in the first place
There are a lot of beautiful things in the natural world
People have both good and bad
If it's evil because people in the economy and society are exploiting it
The fact that I've never pointed at those people
If you speak ill of yourself and don't do anything
It's also just a complaint, in other words, it's evil

With my own efforts and devotion in that mud
What makes a lot of lotus flowers bloom
Isn't that what we should aim for

There is a saying that I no longer feel like contributing to people
That's different
It's just that you haven't been dedicated enough to find importance in good deeds
If you don't neglect your devotion, you won't be bothered by complaints this much
That's an excuse

I'm missing (with postscript)

Hello.
We've had two marriages before.
How are you?

I'll leave the life span of the Earth to experts.
Also, it doesn't seem like an urgent topic for me or you, so let's put it aside.

There is a saying, “I feel guilty even if I harm others, so I live without causing trouble to others at all,” but do you think it is possible to live a way of life “without causing trouble.” For example, if someone is affected even 1 mm by the trash you put out, it is someone's “annoyance” even if it's tiny. If the affected side thinks it's “annoying,” it's an “nuisance.” That's because you're not the one who certifies someone else's “annoyance.”

It is also said that there are painful experiences such as “I don't feel like contributing to this world (abbreviated because I'm angry” and “because I'm experiencing this disgusting world to the extent that I don't like it.”

Why do you think “anger” can last so long?
It is said that you are due to your social structure and to the world where you are forced to live unwillingly. In other words, it's someone else's fault, society's fault.

Yes, you've completely missed your point of view.

As for the “nuisance” story I mentioned earlier, I'm not putting on “nuisance” or adding “harm.” People who do such things are other people, “people who don't mind exploiting people,” where “there are so many rotten people in the world,” that it's the world.

However, as I mentioned earlier, aren't you just a human being forced to live with “annoyance,” no matter how large or small its influence is? What is the point of continuing to ask similar questions such as those that have existed until now on the premise that I am not grounded in such reality, I am an innocent victim who has not caused any “annoyance,” and I am angry at others in the world.

I'm in a position where I'm not criticized (I can't listen even when criticized), and it's extremely easy to get angry and attack others. Because it's easy, “anger” is just easy to keep going.

From your replies and comments up until the last time, there is a tendency not to take advice fundamentally and only state your own opinions. If you think about what you're asking here for, it's worth answering.

If you want to “pursue logic,” why don't you belong to a research institution, write a paper, and ask the world questions? Please challenge yourself to see if you are really logical.

Everything I wanted

> That's because I didn't want to be born, but I was born and experienced this disgusting world to the point of disgusting.

You chose your parents and gave birth because you wanted to be born.
Everything is just my own creation.

Wait, I'm going to wait

Over here! they're still accepting responses, aren't they?

I also read “Thanks from the Questioner”! Somehow I understood your concern!

I don't have such an urgent problem as you, but in theory! I really sympathize with you.

For now, I can simply say that if you're worried about that direction, I recommend practicing Buddhism. It is a religion that aims to escape suffering. This is a religion that is perfect for Savant's demands because it encompasses all the suffering of being born, the suffering of living, and the suffering of death. Rather than religion, it's probably a “road.” It used to be called Buddhism.

I think there are a lot of complaints, but I think that if you leave it as it is, you will eventually be born (reincarnated) without any sexual discipline, even though you deny the world and life...

Hmm, what should I do. What I can simply say for now is that seeing human negligence only causes suffering, so you should stop it for your own sake. Also, feeling guilty about hurting people is a natural reaction of trying to move in the right (painless) direction, so I think this is also good.

If you have even the slightest desire to believe in Buddha in order to get away from suffering, then you should look for a mentor. If you can't find it, it's a good idea to read aloud sutras that even beginners can understand, such as “Dhammapada,” every day because modern translations are fine. Then, I have no choice but to find a painless path for myself.

If you do this, eventually, you will acquire something called merit. You can think of this as the opposite of “guilt” or “regret.”

Also, asking for salvation itself is correct. Because only those who can listen will open the door to the law.

At my level of training, I can't say that much, but my view of the world changes when I encounter something real, whether it's my teacher or my mentor.

Good luck!
