It's too smart and it's too hard

 Hello nice to meet you
As the title suggests, but it's too smart and it's tough
I think it's because I read about 3000 philosophical books and religious books by myself, and my IQ is high
I'm a junior high school graduate, and my lover is a student at the University of Tokyo, and my lover seems to be far smarter than the president of the University of Tokyo. My lover says that my lover is spinning fast and knows the essence
From an early age, the people around me seemed stupid and I couldn't help it, and personally I thought it was a sense of versatility peculiar to puberty, but according to my lover, there really isn't anyone in line
I like making phone calls on the internet, and I've probably talked to about 3000 people until now, but while being rude, no one thought they were sharper than me
In Buddhism, I think this kind of thing is called arrogance. I think so too. I think it's easier to live if you don't compare yourself to others. In that sense, in terms of Buddhism, it's a mass of ignorance.
However, in a secular sense, they understand various essences, and the verbalization is good and accurate, so to be honest, I think they are extremely smart
As a result of reading 3000 books, I don't understand anything, so now I'm devoting myself to Amitabha Buddha. I don't understand anything. There is no choice but to just do nembutsu
Apparently, there really isn't anyone smarter than me, and I'm sad, or rather lonely. People of the same age don't get along, so I only talk to old people. Older people still have deep experience, and it makes me think they have things they don't have
You might think it's arrogant, but it really doesn't seem like it. It can't be helped that others look stupid, and it's rough
If you know the ocean, I think I'll only say about it, but I'm sorry, I'm half complaining

Finding your “what you want to do” saves the world

I'm so envious.
I'm not disgusted, and I'm genuinely envious because I often think “if I had more ability to understand” and “I want to get better at verbalizing.”

However, I still don't know if you're the smartest person alive right now.
Why don't you just make a name for yourself and try fighting back the Brave Braves who are facing off as the world champions of intelligence?

For example, wouldn't it be tempting to challenge great people, intellectuals, and intellectuals in history without saying 3000 people on the internet?
There's a math problem where you can get 100 million yen if you solve it.
Why don't you try solving it, prove your intelligence, and use the prize money you've received to expand the teachings of Amida Nyorai that you believe in?

Contributing to political and environmental issues that must be solved in the world and space expansion may go down in history.

The launch of the rocket made in Japan has just been postponed due to engine problems.
The economy is paralyzed due to COVID-19, and disputes between nations are constantly fueling.
If you can solve these brilliantly and prove that they are the greatest minds in the world, many people, starting with me, will be saved.

Of course, you've probably already thought about this.
Well, take this as my complaint too.
Actually, I wanted to save the world too.

However, a “kitchen knife that cuts in the world” is unnecessary unless you have “the knife that cuts the second time that cannot be cut.”

So, by all means, don't say save the world or Japan with that intelligence; please make that precious lover the happiest in the world.

A perspective that properly recognizes and respects that person who cannot be compared in terms of scholarship or knowledge

I'm worried because I'm smart.
No matter what, I wonder if there is a way of looking at communication as a competition for knowledge. Which one is above or below? Those standards can only be judged by whether they are smart or stupid. I think that is painful.

It's okay if you think it's stupid.
Like Amida, who sees individuals as one and only, no matter how far they go, and like Amida, who cares for them while knowing that they are beings that can only live with worries, there is a vision of properly acknowledging and respecting that person who cannot be compared in terms of academics or knowledge.

If you or your lover are far smarter than the president of the University of Tokyo, or if you live according to the standard of being “smart” without anyone smarter than you, then it will be difficult to live, isn't it?

People have a deeper appeal. Amida makes me notice that.
Amida is an amazing Buddha, so I'm not a devotee; it makes me notice that I couldn't see it and illuminates the way I am. That's why I've left my life up to you and converted to it.

Do you think my story is stupid, or do you think that way of looking at it is one way of thinking?

Well, why don't you try searching for a path that surpasses the world

One field of study called Buddhism is in a bit of a state of self-restraint.
In normal academics, we struggle in the field, and come up with principles, mechanisms, and new ideas in academics, discover and invent that this would be good, and then bring them back to the field. Whether it's engineering, medicine, or the science that underlies them...
Even in the humanities and social sciences, the world is like this; if this is a problem, we should do this; if it's still no good, we are working hard to grow with feedback from the field and principles.
Buddhism alone has a complete system in the world where the answer to Buddhism is clear, yet Westerners who didn't know it read the text 200 years ago and began working hard to understand the contents in a humanistic way, and even now, they don't really understand the meaning of meditation, enlightenment, or the precepts. Japanese Buddhism has also achieved results only in areas such as historical situations and relationships with society without understanding the essential things. (There are scholars who talk about enlightenment, but that doesn't seem like enlightenment.)
If you want to understand the content, you have no choice but to put it into practice, but there is a sense of rejection in academia that this is the same as theological belief.
Well, that's fine, but I think it would be fun to actually experience for yourself what kind of situation enlightenment is in Buddhism.
I recommend Elder Sumanasara's books to help. If I were to put it into practice, it would be mercy meditation and vipassana (observation) meditation, which is also an elder's text, so it's not impossible to self-study.
The path to enlightenment is not an escape from the world; it is the path of a person who is satisfied and tired of the world. I don't think anything can surpass enlightenment, even at the level of knowledge. Please try it out.

I want to help everyone to be better with that smarts and Bodhi's heart

I'm not going to talk about what is good and good and evil because I'm smart, but it would be “better” to be comfortable than humans who are too smart like you and end up “hmm.” It's better than getting lost to “like!” That's it. It's the same for everyone. Even for stoic people who like fun things and painful things, it's probably not difficult because they can find “good” things in them. In other words, humans have a common sense of absolute comfort “that's really good” in terms of experience, not logic, but rather absolute comfort without logic. You can scrutinize that more sharply than the monks of Hasunoha, including me, by making full use of “how can humans reach that heart” and “how can humans reach that heart,” and please don't hesitate, it is more effective than us, many people can be saved, and it can reach even people who don't use the internet, so it's better, better “like!” Please send us your opinions and submissions without getting bogged down in the form of asking more and more suggestions.
Everyone in the human world is endowed with amazing talents they were born with.
However, even if you have a genius brain, if you don't use that brain smartly in the true sense of the word, someone will use it in a good way. As a result, there will also be people who have a higher level of cheating than you, who use your talents to skillfully psychologically guide you and use your wisdom for futile sequins where no one can be saved. If that happens, your wonderful attitude will become a disappointing brain, and literally unfortunate and no activities will be carried out. Oh, N (abbreviated below)
If that is the case, it would be difficult for you to use that amazing ability and brain power to come up with a book or comment on a good way for the world, for you or your loved ones, or for people with relationships with your loved ones, and not for people with relationships with your loved ones, and come up with a book or comment on a good method so that everyone can easily reach the highest and supreme heart called “Buddha Heart, Satori, and Nirvana.” ✋ It's not that there isn't a way to do that. That's because it's just difficult to have one. With your abilities, it's easy to do. You are your life, so you can live as you please, but if you have a good attitude, I would be grateful if you could guide me to make the world a little better using that power.
