Questions to the monk
Not only will I be the caretaker of my husband's parents' house, but I've been thinking for a long time that I and my son don't like getting involved with that temple, and I've been discussing the problems associated with that here.
Among them...
① I'm too strong because I only prioritize my parents' house, parents, and myself.
② Cherish your relationship with the temple.
③ I don't like Buddhism because I don't have enough practice or study.
I received your words.
So, I thought about it again for myself... and now I think the following.
① I'm too strong because I only prioritize my parents' house, parents, and myself. →Taking care of yourself and your parents is a matter of course. It's still strange that I sacrificed myself and my parents to live for the survival of my husband's temple.
② Cherish your relationship with the temple. →I decide whether or not to value my relationship with the temple, and I don't want to cherish it. It's easy to tell people to cherish it, but it's a very easy and powerless way to proselytize.
③ I don't like Buddhism because I don't have enough practice or study. →You can't do what you want others to do. People who say such things don't have enough training.
I think the days when temples were built on someone else's sacrifice are over.
Is my idea still strange? Please respond.
