Things that don't fit in Buddhism

I tried studying Buddhism in search of a way to be saved, but I still couldn't get along.
Specific examples
There is no point in advocating liberation even if it is impossible for ordinary people to aim for liberation that only Buddha has achieved until now. Would it be convenient?
Even though the middle way says it's important, it's not easy in this world and they say that everyone is suffering and extremely biased.
I don't think there is a way to salvation in Buddhism, and I'm at a loss as to what to rely on.

All suffering is the entrance to salvation

Liberation is certainly not easy, is it?
Nevertheless, if you follow the Buddha's teachings and accumulate merits, it is thought that even if you don't realize it in this world, it will be easier for you to become enlightened in the next life and beyond.
Nakamichi is a Buddhism that is neither dark practice nor hedonism, in other words, the three sciences of the four teachings of the Eight Judges, Dharma, and Wisdom, called Nakamichi.
Well, all of us are suffering, but this is the teaching at the entrance to salvation.
Bitterness never goes away from living things; it's just that the shape of suffering changes moment by moment.
If you inhale, the pain of wanting to exhale occurs, and if you exhale, the pain of wanting to inhale this time occurs.
Life is about continuing to deal with suffering, time after time. In other words, you won't run out of homework every second of every day.
People who stay at home dream of leaving, and travelers miss their hometown.
Being single has the suffering of being single, and married people have the suffering of being married.
If we learn that suffering will not go away from living things, discrimination against suffering will decrease.
Whether it's a major illness or disaster, a slight physical itch, or having to put trash together on the day you take out the trash, there are small homework assignments if you break them down into 1 second, that's all.
Therein lies salvation.
Also, if worries such as greed, anger, laziness, pride, etc., which are the cause of worries and suffering, can return to the “normal mind” of those days when elementary school students lived laughing even when they had homework every day.

There is a character limit, so I can't answer all questions, but for example, whether it's the road leading to a sad funeral or a fun wedding, if there's a pedestrian crossing right in front of you, you have to cross it, and the only pain in 1 second is the simple suffering of putting out your right leg and then having to stick out your left foot next.
Suffering does not go away, but there is no big worry in the suffering in front of you; there is salvation there.
No matter how big a job is, at this moment, there is nothing but simple work, and that is where salvation lies.
Even though it's a long journey towards enlightenment, the present moment is a successful life just by doing simple ascetic practices, and there is salvation there.

The same enlightenment as Buddha

Until now, there have been many people who have reached it. I think it's your misunderstanding that Buddha is alone.
The trick to enlightenment is to look at something that seems to always be there by looking at and looking at something that seems to be there at all times, understanding that life and death are repeated (various acts are impermanent), understanding that it is something that is broken and empty that is not stable because it is impermanent (the meaning of suffering fits perfectly)), and of course understand that it is selflessness.
In meditation, I keep looking at white walls outside of myself, but in meditation, I observe the senses inside my body from the beginning, rather than something stable that seems to have no movement at first. The inside of your body is still moving, even when you have calmed down and stopped moving. If you just keep observing those momentary changes, you can't help but be immediately convinced that impermanence is impermanent. Suffering and selflessness are a set of impermanence, so you'll understand it over time.
It's quick to watch Elder Sumanasara's YouTube channel about how to meditate, impermanence, suffering, selflessness, etc.

You don't get along, do you

I read it.
I read that you don't agree with the teachings of Buddhism. You think there is no way to salvation in Buddhism, do you? There are times when people think of you that way, and I understand from the bottom of my heart.

Buddhism aims to become a Buddha in a way where everyone can be saved. There are many ways to do that.
In order to be saved from trouble and suffering, all things “impermanent” and “laws and nothing”, which are truths, will change, and there is absolutely no substance, so it is necessary to accept things as they are without being bound by anything.
That is the path to being saved from “all suffering” suffering. And gaining “nirvana silence” awareness without getting caught up in anything is a way to become a Buddha.

There is a way to learn it through one's own ascetic practice, and a path where you can be born in the Buddha's Pure Land of Paradise and become clean in the Pure Land and open up your senses.

If you are interested in Buddhism and would like to learn it, be sure to set up an opportunity to learn from now on. Also, please listen to the stories of the various monks.
Also, if you are really worried, or if you are having a painful feeling, please share your thoughts. We look forward to welcoming you.

Everyone is always ready for relief. Learn the reason.

If you walk alone with the word liberation, various interpretative theories will arise.
What is the true meaning of liberation?
Freedom from the hardships of life, old age, illness, and death.
Freedom from all suffering in this world.
Free yourself from the prison of your own thoughts.
Freedom from the Rokudō Reincarnation.
A break from the negative infinite loop.
Relief from a state where suffering is misunderstood as suffering and simply cannot be accepted as an innocent and clean fact.
These can also be said to be worlds of imagination.
why?
That's because I think it's painful or painful because it's something that my head, heart, and thought do.
Even if your hands hurt, your eyes are itchy, or your nose is blocked, your hands, eyes, and nose won't get lost. I'm not saying it's painful. It's a pain without problems. My right eye is blurry, my hands don't bend due to spring fingers, and my nose is swollen, but I'm having trouble with my eyes, hands, or nose. It's just that I'm struggling to be in such a situation.
In other words, many people misunderstand the word “suffering,” where everyone suffers at all.
Don't you think everything in this world is suffering?
That is not the true meaning of Shakyamuni and enlightened people.
It explains reason as truth. Since “everything is all suffering,” nothing is pain, nothing is suffering, everything just represents the fact that “suffering” = “ducca” = not going the way you want, situations that don't go the way you want, and dissatisfaction, and it doesn't mean that everything in this world is painful, painful, or painful.
If that were true, would it be difficult to breathe? Seeing, hearing, eating, or traveling can't be painful. There's no reason it's painful to eat delicious food, live happily with your family, encounter good teachings, and discern certain truths.
Therefore, it would be a good idea to experience that everything certainly doesn't go the way humans want [they are “absolutely free and independent,” unrelated to human thoughts] even though everything certainly doesn't go the way humans want it [that way, they are so free. This is self-evident if you do zazen and look at the facts without using human opinions.
As soon as people awaken to the right reason, they are freed from all suffering. This is because we will awaken to a certain truth.
Through zazen = quiet reflection = living in the law, Dogen Zenji also found relief in the fact that no human opinion was attached, an innocent and clean self. Then, it was revealed that the body and mind will drop out, and that it will become a body and mind of loss.
