About salvation and peace of mind

Burns all over... those wounds are still hurting you right now, aren't they? Ow. The pain is unbearable, isn't it?
More than a burn, how terrifying was it to think that they had been slashed by an ugly human blade.

Why don't you try to touch your inner heart? Everyone is the same person, and even though they are equally equal, they dislike their appearance and target prejudice and discrimination.
How frustrated you were that you couldn't forgive. I can only think of the people around me that I hate.
I wanted to live a life where I could laugh and feel happier.

No matter what form the Buddha looks like, what kind of way of life, or what kind of person he is, he cares for and wishes to save lives. For the Buddha, he loves me like a precious child of the Buddha.

Also, there are people in the world who care about you and stand by you. The fact that I was able to encounter Hasunoha in this way is probably guidance from the Buddha.

Let's expand the place where you can feel safe. Hasunoha is also your place. I want to treat the wound for you. Let's connect so we can laugh and live together with you.

My heart breaks when I think about how hard it has been for you up until now.
As the doctor pointed out that “the cup of water has finally overflowed,” they've probably been putting up with it all this time.
Shakyamuni said, “Let's hold back the slack of others so that elephants on the battlefield endure being hit by arrows. It's because a lot of people are actually of poor quality,” he said, and it seems that you have lived exactly that kind of life.
It is said that the cause of the burn was the mother's fault, but your mother probably suffered more than you because of that.
I probably kept thinking that if it were to be replaced by my daughter, I would like to take her place
I'm sure the father also didn't forgive his mother in his heart, and it seems that she just spoke out with emotion.
Even if your father wasn't revealed, you probably knew about it at some point.
Please forgive your parents.
It's not the burn scars on your body that are creating your anger and suffering, but your heart.
The teaching of Buddhism is that although it is impossible to change a burned past, it is possible (although not easy) to control the mind.
I hope you will have a vast sense of compassion, let go of anger, and be free from suffering.
If that comes true, you'll be closer to the Buddha than anyone else.

I read it.
I read that you suffered serious burns due to abuse from your parents when you were young and have had a very painful experience until now.
I don't know the details about you, your parents, or the people around you, and I really understand your painful feelings.
I think you've had a very difficult time receiving discrimination and prejudice from people until now. That suffering is probably indescribable in a nutshell, and I think it was really painful when you think that you have endured that suffering for so many years.
You probably want to be freed from that suffering right now.
Please sincerely join hands with the Buddha, God, and your ancestors to confess everything, including your suffering, anger, envy, and hatred. Please tell us your overflowing thoughts as they are.
Buddha, gods, and ancestors will kindly accept all of your thoughts. They are close to you, accept you, and save you.
The Buddha, gods, and ancestors are always close to you and watch over you, even when you have a hard time, or when you are full of anger and hate.
You are by no means alone; you have a relationship with us here too.
I sincerely pray to the Buddha, gods, and ancestors that your suffering will ease little by little and that you can live every day with peace of mind.
Please let us know how you feel, and we look forward to welcoming you.

In the sutras, it is written that anyone who chants Nanmu Amida Buddha and Nembutsu can pass away (reincarnate) in the Pure Land of Paradise, and the Jodo sect believes that
Namu Amidabu Namu Amidabu
I think I can fulfill my greatest purpose in life just by chanting nembutsu.
In other words, the happy ending of life is confirmed by nembutsu alone, and if you are reincarnated in the Pure Land of Paradise, you will become the body of a shining Bodhisattva, and of course, your current physical health problems will disappear.
That is salvation in the afterlife (happy ending of life).
Next, salvation in this world, isn't it?
Simply put, the moment you forget your anger or sadness is a time when your stress is gone.
We tend to expand our delusional thoughts about our past, future, ourselves, and others due to worries such as greed, anger, laziness, pride, etc.
However, for example, if you switch your consciousness to “namu amida funamu amidafu,” switch your consciousness to simple tasks such as housework, etc., or switch your consciousness to meditation, you can forget your greed, anger, laziness, and pride from 1 second ago and reset it.
Of course, it's our habit that resets don't last long and we also suffer from delusional distractions.
However, even if your mind is kidnapped by a wave of delusional distractions, it would be helpful if you were caught in a lifeboat such as “Namu Amida Buddha,” simple work, or meditation.
Also, even if you are swallowed up by anger or sadness, if you switch your consciousness again, you will be saved each time.
If you live until you die over and over again, you'll end up in the Pure Land of Paradise. That is the salvation of this life.
However, forgetting angry and sad due to alcohol, gambling, or dangerous drugs is not recommended because it has significant side effects.

How can we let go of anger and suffering?

Each of us has a name, a body, and each of us has our own personality, values, and experiences
They live their lives as independent individuals, aware of themselves as part of a whole.
I, self, and individuality are the main premise, and there is status, honor, educational background, meaning, value,
Evaluations and various things are attached, compared with others, confronted, and even hostile.
Just as there is the word selflessness, I, the individual, and the self seem to exist at first glance
However, in reality, there are also things that cannot be acknowledged. (The flame of a candle has no wind
By the way, it looks like a fixed shape and shape, but in reality it's dizzying due to the reaction called combustion
(It feels like there is no real thing due to continuous changes.)
There is no such thing as a boundary between the essential appearance and appearance of a person,
It is not a relationship of parts within a whole, but the whole itself, a single consciousness without form,
Work, become aware that it is power, and become aware of it, into your true state
If you notice it, I think you'll be able to see a path to letting go of anger and suffering.
I don't think I can see a way out of a world where I am and my own self are the main premise, as long as I am within the frame.
Many people think they are living on their own power, but in reality, they notice that they haven't done anything, that there are no actors, and that everything happened and unfolded before humans
You can do that. My eyes can see without doing anything, my heart is beating, I can be digested... the world revolves properly even if I don't do anything, I've noticed that before
The power you can trust from the beginning is working here and now, and is connected to a big power
It makes me notice. From there, trust in the world and a sense of affirmation are born.
It is supported by great power, to be precise, that great power is the essence of oneself
When you notice it, you can see a lot of things.
Interpret people who have done unforgivable things to themselves as units of bad people and people
Instead, we also look at the various factors behind that person's actions that made them do so.
The heart of a person who bullies, despises, and harms people still has similar feelings and is negative
I think it's in tatters because it's been treated a lot. Rather than that person bullied
I think that person's wounds made them do that.
There are a lot of things I want to write, but I can't write them all.
Please read it if you like.

I read your question.
I also read the answers and prayers from other monks.
Thank you for sharing your feelings.

I don't think I can erase the suffering with an answer of about 1000 characters after not understanding all the damage that Atom's mother has suffered in her life so far, but please forgive me.

What bothered me was the psychiatrist's statement.
It seems that he said, “This is the result of a cup of water called accumulated experience that has finally overflowed,” but I feel that there is a risk of causing cognitive distortion due to lack of words.

If it just overflows, the cup won't break..
In Buddhism, “it is natural for water that is cloudy due to worry to overflow one after the other. It's a way of saying “don't hold it, accept it.”

Water... the stress that Atom's mother experienced
Cups... social acceptance, people who listen, people who care for them, supporters of Atom's mother's life.
Water must be stopped because it overflows... it is stored in the body and causes trouble.
It is natural for metabolism to become unwell if it is stagnant.
I feel it.

I don't think it's necessary to forgive the parents who created the cause in the first place.
“It seems like they were doing normal parental duties, but you guys also brought me a handicap that ordinary people don't have. Even if I go to hell and get punished, it won't do me any favors. It may be over for others when they go to paradise, but even in the Buddha world, keep giving me benefits and keep practicing!”
I think it's fine to have that kind of mindset.

The ethics and morals of a world where “parents should feel grateful and forgiven” and “there's no way that such a beautiful thing can be accepted when your life is ruined!” I also feel that this conflict has torn apart and eroded my mind and body.

Nonetheless, blaming only parents doesn't seem like the current situation will improve.
When I was working at a nursery school, I said, “It's not such a light life that I can support with just my parents' hands. Please make use of nursery teachers, systems, etc. in various ways.”
Parents alone weren't enough.
There weren't enough cups called a safe place, which Master Nakata said.
But in the midst of that, I've worked very hard until now.
I think that step should be taken care of.

Hello.
I tried to fly an airplane on the bell tower road when I was little ✈ I don't remember from there.
It seems like he hit him hard on the head. There is also a wound on the left side of my face. Apparently I have no memory, but it seems that he fell with tremendous momentum in front of the main hall. When I was a kid, I was nicknamed Skeleton. It is said that it was a small meal that made the area around the eyes concave, and parents told them that this child wouldn't last long. 💀
At the ascetic dojo, they were bullied even though it was a temple world, and they were told to eat it if they failed, so it was basic to eat three cups of donburi at every meal. I was HR/HM when I was a student, so I hate being silly. The attitude towards old people wasn't lackluster, so 👹 it was easy to be targeted by old people because they were cheeky. Just like in life, you don't know who you'll run into. Unfortunately, it's over when I run into a mendoku person attacking me. However, the approach of not dealing with this one is important either. The same goes for living humans. And it's good to do that for thoughts that boil up from within.
I'm just like you, and I can't compare them, but that means I had my own hell. Everyone is like that. That was probably the case with your mother and father. poor thing.
Let's talk about how you can be saved from here.
You may have felt gloomy thinking about the past today, yesterday, and the other day.
But don't worry.
Please determine that “it” is brand new every time. Well, that seems like it. It's the first time in my life, even if I always remember the same thing. Up to date.
Please calm down and notice that first.
It's just that today's time is being reminded anew of that past today as well.
And when I remember that, I was just repeating “the same approach as always” (which is important). It's OK for people to worry constructively and come up with good answers. If you keep thinking about things you can't change, you'll get sick. Let's change the same contact and approach as always. The other day was the other day. Yesterday was yesterday. Today is a new one today. If I were to think about it now, it really would be an opportunity. Today is the first time in my life that I have that thought. You can do whatever you want from there.
You may think that it has been repeated over and over again, but don't forget the viewpoint that in fact, those thoughts come out in a fresh state every day.
First, that's all.
