Buddha is not a fairy, and Buddha is not a savior. Buddha is omniscient, but not omnipotent! The purpose of learning Buddhism is to let us return to the initial heart of peace, light and wisdom; The purpose of learning Buddhism is to free all sentient beings from suffering and have fun. Learning Buddhism is not for others to see, reading scriptures is not an inscrutable word game, and being able to say a few Buddhist scriptures is not to show off your erudition in front of others. People can't learn Buddhism for the sake of learning Buddhism, but recite the scriptures for the sake of chanting. Buddhism is a practical science. If there is any secret to learning Buddhism, it is practice.
The Buddha pointed out a way for people to get rid of the troubles of life. As long as we follow the Buddha's teaching of compassion, we will naturally reverse the unfortunate situation. In this world, the only thing that can save people from suffering is ourselves, our innate wisdom.
It doesn't matter who talks about "Dharma", the key lies in whether it conforms to the interests of all living beings and the purpose of Buddhism; It depends on whether your thoughts and actions really reflect the spirit of Buddhism. Someone talks about going to school; Some people want to learn in their hearts; And some people, although silent, actually believe more than they believe, and learn more than they learn. Although the word Buddhism does not appear in many practices in today's society, from the perspective of Buddhism, it is in line with Buddhism. For example, Lei Feng and Liu Hulan, no one said that they believed in and studied Buddhism, but their ideological realm and personality were the same as those of Buddhists. In the eyes of Buddhists, they are Buddhists on earth. Another example is the "Hope Project", "Love Activities", "Spiritual Civilization" and "Quality Education" that the government is currently carrying out, the purpose of which is to help others and be kind to others. It also conforms to the purpose of Buddhism and is a completely modern "Buddhism".
If we are really Buddhists, we should actively participate in this kind of dedication to society and the public, offer a love, help a poor person, accumulate a virtue and do our duty; If we are really Buddhists, we should seriously study Modern Buddhism, strive to improve our own quality and practice hard, so that we can become Buddhists in real life and work as soon as possible.
Sadly, many Buddhists can't look at Buddhism from a developmental perspective and learn Buddhism in the right way. They don't think about doing things right or not. Whether studying Buddhism or doing things, we must adhere to the principle of "seeking truth from facts". Everything should proceed from reality, stress combination and practical results, and should not be biased or persistent. Whoever speaks correctly and conforms to Buddhism, no matter who it is, we must listen to it. Whoever can carry forward the spirit of Buddhism can follow it according to law. Whoever it is, we should learn from him. This is what Buddhism advocates, that is, "to know what is right and to see what is right" and "to be equal", but most of us practitioners do not follow other people's laws, and we don't know what we are learning or doing.
Some of us regard burning incense and worshipping Buddha as the main way to learn Buddhism; Some people have three classes a day and take chanting as the whole content of their practice. They can never combine Buddhism with real life, Buddhism with social practice, and learning with use, just like oil and water. The real practice of learning Buddhism is to show caution and wisdom from real life behavior, and there is no greed and ignorance in our words and deeds. Only by combining learning Buddhism can we get tangible benefits, tangible benefits.
To learn Buddhism, you must be clear about what you are learning and practicing! Absolutely not. I have read many classics and essays. I can write and speak. It's no use. Those people in the world will! Learning Buddhism as a kind of human knowledge, he is engaged in Buddhism, not learning Buddhism.
Learning Buddhism makes us happy and makes our life easier and easier. If a person feels more troublesome, inconvenient and depressed, then there is no doubt that you must be mistaken. If you study again, everyone will think you have a problem, so I want to tell you that if you continue to study like this, you will definitely be possessed.
"All good dharma in the world is Buddhism". This statement is thorough and reasonable. Fortunately, he harmoniously combined Buddhism with secular law, and raised the connotation of Buddhism to a deeper, more comprehensive and more realistic level. The key to learning Buddhism lies in learning and using it flexibly. It is to cultivate a wise brain with the wisdom of Buddhism and realize a wise life.
