What is Buddhism?

Buddhism is not the Buddha's teaching. It just so happened that the Buddha was aware of the truth as a person, and if you do this to a truth that has existed since before that, you can notice it. This is advice from a senior.

After 2,500 years, we put that advice into practice according to the sutras written on it, leading to enlightenment.

Nirvana is enlightenment. I'm lonely when I realize it after death, so I practice ascetic practices as much as possible to become a Buddha while I'm alive.
I feel that Buddhism is different from modern religion. It's a way to look at the essence of our existence as a person and get to know ourselves.
I think it was before country, gender, or religion.

Therefore, when many famous people have problems, they will eventually lead to zazen meditation and move on to the path of self-investigation themselves.

If there's room to think
It's not always good to think deeply about anything
Let's forget things we can't solve even if we think about them

Raise your awareness a little higher
Let's think about things
If you think about the bad things of the past
Try saying “I'm a good person” even if it's a lie
Because that alone will change
It's not fate or destiny that creates the future
Your current thoughts make it
there is a cause and there is an effect
Make a good cause
If you work hard towards it, that's fine

Because I think I need it for myself
They're meditating, aren't they?
That's why I was able to meet my mentor on rare occasions
You should be thankful
The words lined up are so dark
it's a very bad habit of your thinking
Please shorten the time to look back on the past as much as possible
And please stop before the sentence is complete in your head

If you have changed
I've changed too
and everyone is changing
but the difference is that it takes a leg up
It's not meant to drag your feet
I really think it's a difference in order to acknowledge each other's individuality

So of course, be your own personality
If it's not in a state of acceptance
There is no room for other personalities
That's why now
Justify yourself who has changed
Please understand it as it is
It's fine
It's changed, isn't it
It's important to know that

Just on the next stage
Something about me has changed
If that means it's not good
I have to fix it honestly
That's how I organized it little by little
It's about not making the same mistakes over and over
We have to be strict here

If you meditate, you'll be smarter, so you can do it ^_^

Buddhism does not mean being saved just because you believe in it.

Basically, it's a teaching for not doing bad deeds, striving for good deeds, and keeping your mind clear.

No matter how much you deal with something called “Buddhism,” it must be something that deviates from these basics.

Also, originally, there is no solicitation, nor is it something that forces or forces faith, such as not being saved if you don't believe in this (this teaching).

It's a good idea to think of it as a practical philosophy that serves as a reference for not doing bad deeds, striving for good deeds, and keeping your mind clear.

Even if you think about it from that basic point of view, if there are clearly strange acts (things that make people unhappy in the world, etc.) and there are many questions, then that is true.

Both chanting sutras, visiting graves, and meditating are required to strive to “do good deeds without doing bad deeds, and keep your mind clear.”

I hope you can put it into practice while verifying one by one whether the Buddhist rituals are in such a direction.

I read your question.

I'm not going to talk about difficult things.
Somehow I'm reading your question
Like being addicted to a maze,
I felt it.

I'll ask the opposite.
Are you happy right now?
Giving sutras
In order to be happy,
is it necessary?

What is a fool
Shugen from age 5
It's like mixing Shinto and Esoteric Buddhism,
I've been putting my teachings into practice.
The reason is
To the walkers,
This kid has something to see.
My parents believed the words
You can become Superman,
The words of parents who say
It starts with what you believe.
Superman is God.
How to become a living god
I think effort will also be necessary.
That's why it's too much trouble,
I never felt it.

Since you're going to be the chosen one,
It's a necessary test, isn't it?
Greetings, Fudo mantras,
Like Kokuzo Bosatsu Gumonjiho.

Because it's for greed,
I think it continued.
Gold and silver treasures, whatever you want,
I'll do my best.

It didn't come true after all,
That's because it's a habit now.
The decisions I make every day,
I'm happy I was able to do it.

Right now, due to the COVID-19 pandemic,
It's a difficult time,
Eat rice
The happiness of being able to drink tea.

Now it's Amida-sama
I'm asking for it.

At the temple,
Buddhist study session.
Learn the teachings and recite sutras.
Now due to the COVID-19 pandemic
I'm taking a day off,
You are completely free to enroll and unsubscribe.

When I was a kid,
Being told to go to school by my parents
Isn't there one?
It's compulsory education, so go to school!
I was told,
What I learned when I became an adult
Since it's compulsory education,
Conversely, even if you don't go to school,
If it's treated like a graduation,
Understood.
It was a later festival (laughs)

Let's take it easy and have fun!

Buddha attains enlightenment
What I got was strict training
It's not the thing itself,
From Sujata
The gift I received,
To a cup of milk porridge
I was saved.

Salvation is not something to be sought,
Just now, you
with that body, with that heart,
I think it's something you can feel.

Please be happy
I hope you have a nice time.

What is a wonderful realization
It was there!
I'm really glad!
Idiots are happy too.

I went back to the Pure Land of Paradise first
For your friends,
We will definitely meet again someday.

This time a little early
My friend just went home.
We'll meet again someday.

On the day we met
It's been a long time since you smiled.
and smile to each other
so that they can exchange
It's something I want to live for.
