"Buddha-Nature". The Buddhist world of awakening 25
from 遇光書林 Gooco Shorin · host Taka Kanai
This year and last year, we heard of the deaths of many people. It is really sad. However, the truth of the impermanence of life and death is a fact taught by those who have awakened to it, so please do not be surprised, but awaken to the wisdom of the truth. No matter how much we humans, as imperfect beings, are heartbroken at the death of our neighbours, it is unfortunately very difficult to help them. No matter how deeply we wish and shed tears for the resuscitation of our dying relatives, as we all know, we cannot bring them back from the dead. The thought is a noble but imperfect act of mercy that cannot be carried out. It is the act of perfect compassion that we practise and eventually awaken to true wisdom,then, you can help your neighbour who wishes to awaken to wisdom, so that their aspirations are fulfilled. And that is how we live a full life. This time, let us listen to "Buddha Nature". This passage from the podcast was excerpted and edited from "Teachings of the Buddha" published by Bukkyo dendo kyokai. The name means "Buddhist Missionary Association" in Japanese, and has an office in Minato-ku, Tokyo. They own the copyright of this English translation of Buddhist scriptures. You will have access to Buddhist scriptures translated into languages from around the world.
