I want to have a strong heart and faith.(強い心と信仰を持ちたいものです。)

日本語版:強い心と信仰を持ちたいものです。間違っている事を堂々と「間違っている」と指摘出来るように。

In Jodo Shinshu Sect, "The Five Commandments" means "symbol" and is a warning and deterrent.
However, the founder of Jodo Shinshu, Shinran Shonin, said, "The wicked are saved."
Amitabha has said that those who commit crimes will be saved.
But isn't this the precondition for "The Five Commandments"?
Will deterrence lose its effectiveness? 」
This article continues from a separate article.

WHAT IS SALVATION IN JODO SHINSHU?(浄土真宗における「救い」)

IN BUDDHISM, "FIVE DEADLY SINS" MEANS THE FOLLOWING 5 THINGS.(「五逆罪」について)

The title of this article is:
Here is a summary of the additional questions my friend asked.
(an answer to a question)
Throughout history, the "The Five Commandments" has lost its deterrent force many times because its purpose has been misunderstood by the people of its time.
As a religious group based in Kyoto, the Jodo Shinshu Honganji school is conducting activities today based on its remorse, but still tends to go astray.
Even if it is suppressed, humans always fail. Let me repeat that.
Learning is based on failure, so failure should be tolerated, but there is an acceptable degree of "limit".
If you repeat an obvious bad move over and over again, it means that the behavior has not learned anything from the past or lessons, and the person will be disgusted by others.
It's an assessment on an individual level, and since it's the person's mind that's stressful, an individual can try to get rid of it or even eliminate it.
But people become strange when they are in a group.
No matter how smart your organization is,
If you are not lucky, you may go out of control and go in a crazy direction.
They are swept away by the atmosphere of the group and the responsibility becomes vague.
When one encounters such a bad relationship, one is degraded;
is that "a deceitful way of life"
You get the wrong success experience.
Why? As long as man is not God, it is only because he is such, but it is very sad. It's common for an individual's efforts to be swept away by the times.
I will explain to foreigners who are not familiar with Japanese history.
In the Japanese medieval and Warring States period, the only thing that people overseas know well is "Oda Nobunaga" "Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI".
There were farmers' revolts and mob groups who harassed Nobunaga and Hideyoshi and resisted them thoroughly.
That was "Kaga Ikko ikki" and what lay at the backbone was the faith of Jodo Shinshu.
They were originally a group of Honganji followers who were instigated by some rogue inside and turned into a mob.
They took advantage of the teachings of Jodo Shinshu by interpreting them in their own way.
The eighth pope, Rennyo Shonin, led the Honganji religious group at that time, but he could not stop them no matter how many times he remonstrated with them.
That's why Rennyo Shonin left Kaga Province which became the base of their rioters.
"If you think you have run out of Buddhahood, leave the land.".
What an individual can do when the flow of time exceeds his or her ability to control.
It's just to leave and go to a new world.
Even Rennyo Shonin did so.
What you can do after leaving
It just tells the next generation not to repeat the same mistake.
Human beings are surprisingly weak and helpless against the power of numbers and the times (atmosphere).
I was just disappointed with the helplessness
Do not neglect your self-discipline;
Think about the causes of helplessness.
The act of applying the lesson to one's own life
It will be a valuable opportunity to learn.
And that attitude of learning is your salvation.
"the commandments of the five deadly sins" lives on in you.

Think about yourself before you think about others.
However, this does not mean that you should say nothing to others or pretend not to see the sin.
Because I think of others, I have a strong mind that "I will discipline myself alone."
I can confidently point out that what is wrong is wrong.
I want to have a strong heart and faith.
And that could result in "self-purification of the tissue".
I do my best to the extent I can, whether or not I can achieve it in my lifetime.

Namu Amidabutsu...
