What is Buddhism in your mind?

Everyone in the world pursues happiness, but no one knows that true happiness lies in nirvana, that is, transcending life and death, seeing through illusion, responding to things with a pure heart and gaining freedom. In this ignorant and uneasy world, Buddhism brings the dawn of freedom and tranquility, because it is both realistic and transcendental, that is, transcendental and realistic. If we follow it, we can sublimate sensibility and rationality to the highest point, and tap the life glory of deep awakening at the spiritual level. Learning Buddha is not the sustenance of death, the past life is in the present, in every mind. Death doesn't mean liberation, and liberation doesn't have to wait until after death, but it means liberation if you can get into the middle road without any troubles. Buddhist thought has positive, positive and substantial significance to human real life, material civilization and even physical and mental settlement. Philosophy is a metaphysical theory, which cannot be confirmed in real life, while Buddhism can be applied to every time and space of life through the interpretation of faith. Why is such a superb and great religion, such a perfect and mysterious religion, always weak? The number of Buddhists ranks first in the world, but why are there so many Buddhists and so few Buddhists? There are many reasons, which are worth exploring and reforming. Buddhism is the highest index of human spirit and a kind navigation beyond the suffering of reincarnation.

The true nature of Buddhism is pure and bright, self-defeating, absolutely equal and selfless. However, due to the lack of education, the public can't know its true colors, resulting in various misunderstandings. There are many factors, such as culture, system and so on, which lead to many disadvantages. In order to make Buddhism reappear, we should make in-depth review and criticism. The following remarks are not directed at any specific person or Dojo, but are sincerely spoken from the standpoint of establishing a correct understanding and revitalizing Buddhism. 1 misunderstanding of Buddhism-this is to clarify the concept for those who have not studied Buddhism and those who have not studied Buddhism deeply. * There is no distinction between gods and Buddhists. China's culture is inclusive, and the religion that advocates goodness is widely accepted. Today, all believers who hold incense are mistaken for Buddhism. In fact, many folk gods, such as Lord, God of the Earth, Three Princes, and Mazu, have been put on the cloak of Buddhism by laymen, and they don't know the difference between God and Buddhism. Their nature and wishes should be investigated. God is the sentient beings of the six divisions in the wheel of karma, and belongs to those who are protected by ghosts and gods. Or he made outstanding contributions to the country and mankind before his death, and later generations set up temples to worship in memory of his kindness. Or because people's wisdom is not open, they are ignorant of natural phenomena and have awe of mountains and rivers. People think that God has the power to dominate the life and death of all things, and has the ability to dominate good fortune and bad fortune, but they don't know that God himself is an ordinary person in the world. His purpose is nothing more than persuading the good, and there is no complete and meticulous ideological system. Worship god for secular protection and disaster relief, but can't get rid of it. Other religions affirm that God is unique. God and man are masters and servants, and they can never be equal. Buddha, on the other hand, is a practitioner who puts down his throne, his wife and children and seeks truth. He is a natural saint, who understands the truth of the universe and life and proves the wisdom of reaching nature. He advocates that all good and bad luck should be borne by people themselves. If you don't pay attention to it, you can completely improve your thinking and behavior. Blind worship can't avoid good luck, let alone purify your personality. Buddha treats all sentient beings with compassion and joy. He is a mentor, so the relationship between Buddha and man is a teacher-student relationship. Everyone can become a Buddha as long as he follows his teaching methods. Therefore, Buddha and man are equal in essence. * Wisdom fans don't argue, and people often criticize Buddhism as superstition. What is superstition? Believing in a daze without careful thinking and rational discrimination is called superstition. Critics often have never heard of the Sutra and Dharma, and even the original intention of [Buddha] is speechless, that is, they subjectively believe that Buddhism is superstition. Aren't critics more blind and superstitious? What is bosom friend? Judging with wisdom, observing calmly, and finding kind and beautiful people can free people, and then accept and believe, which is called wisdom and faith. Liang Qichao often said, "Buddhism is wisdom and belief, not superstition." Buddhism not only disagrees with superstition, but even encourages rational exploration and questioning. This tolerant and realistic attitude is a symbol of wisdom and belief and the biggest difference between Buddhism and other religions. * Folk heresy is mistaken for Buddhism, and there are many customs among the people, or all kinds of heresy behaviors are not true believers of Buddhism. The following are: * fortune telling, fortune telling, drawing lots, divination, touching bones, etc. , to assert the fortunes of life. This is because people are at a loss about their future and hope to guide them. Buddhism holds that "if you want to know the cause of previous life, the recipient in this life is, and if you want to know the fruit in the future, the author in this life is." Your own thoughts can determine your future destiny. You don't have to rely on fortune telling, you have to make up karma. * Geographical geomantic omen, which is related to the north and south poles, magnetic field and underground water flow, is scientific and natural. It really has an impact on ordinary people who have never been confused. However, all those certified as Siraitia grosvenorii are pure land, which can be said to be [ordinary people turn their hearts, saints turn their hearts]. Do your best. But Buddhism pays attention to the mind, and all blessings are inseparable. The heart is far more important than the external geography. * Jumping to help women, which is a form of folk belief, uses psychics as a bridge to pray. This is by no means a product of Buddhism, but a category of witchcraft. * toss a cup, people can't communicate with ghosts and gods, so in my opinion, asking yourself and answering yourself and speculating about providence is actually a matter of probability, which is not credible. * Burning ghost paper began with the promotion of paper merchants in the Han Dynasty, and it has been followed to this day, and even derived the custom of tying paper with ghost tools to pray for the use of the dead. Buddhism believes that to do merit, it is necessary to give alms, seal scriptures and support the three treasures in the name of the deceased, which will better benefit the deceased. Covered with cremation paper, ghosts are only useful to ghosts, but the dead may not be reincarnated as ghosts. And the money of past lives must not be burned, and the mantra is printed on it. If cremated, it will be regarded as burning books, which is a big sin. * Killing is a gift. People who don't know often offer chickens, ducks and fish to the Buddha to show their sincerity. But Buddhism is merciful, advocating the equality of all living beings and respecting the right to life of all living beings. And six sentient beings, generations of marriage, how do you know that those who were killed were not born to previous parents? Is based on its basic principle-don't kill people. * Wrong cognition-negative, pessimistic and blind worship. Buddhism unveiled the veil of life and fully saw that its essence is bitterness, emptiness and impermanence. For those who don't go deep into Buddhism, they often interpret the meaning according to the text and think that Buddhism is negative and pessimistic. Buddhism is actually passively creating evil and actively doing good. Buddhism is willing to pull out the suffering of all sentient beings, so it is a view of compassion, not sorrow. Some people even criticized becoming a monk as unfilial and evading responsibility. As we all know, a diversified society needs all kinds of talents. The great cause of spiritual salvation depends entirely on Bora monks. Becoming a monk is a man's business, not a man's business. Becoming a monk is true filial piety, because becoming a monk is a family's trouble, and what you do is Long Shao Buddhism, spreading Buddhism and benefiting life. Bodhisattva Dizang made a vow: "If the hell is not empty, it will not become a Buddha, and all living beings will be exhausted, so that Bodhi can be proved." What a positive thing this is! Outsiders often criticize Buddhism for worshipping idols, but they don't know that Buddhism worships Buddha statues for the convenience of believers to meet the sage Qi and learn the spirit and behavior of Buddhism, not to pray. Just like the national flag, the national anthem and the cross, they are all symbols of spirit, and the Buddha statue is also expressive. Buddhism has always been isolated from the world and never gives up, and the Diamond Sutra is even more disfigured. How can I worship idols? But there is no phase, that is, the heart is the Buddha
