Giving up on life made me rich -Japanese Zen wisdom

When I was 25, I gave up on my life.
This is because I met Zen. I'm Japanese but I didn't know about its wisdom at all.
I talked about what I learned from Zen, and how it changed my life.

Great video. Zen (曹洞宗) changed my life more than 20 years ago and zazen is part of my everyday routine now. Buddhism and Zen has brought peace and deep understanding in my life. Hope you persist in the Path, because as you know, there's nothing else to look for. Cheers from Brazil

the same for me. But as for my case is about Christianity. No one really pushed me into Christianity and I have no religion and religious denominations. And the moment I started praying and reading the bible, it has really changed my life, and I learned to love more and forgive. The thing that surprises me is that other Christians are doing the exact opposite of what the word of God actually says, they go to debates, sometimes say insulting words to other people. And that really affects me and made me sad. And the other side is that non Christian people discriminate Christians so much. or like some Japanese people I heard that they're somewhat afraid of Christianity, and treat it as a cult. Again it made me very sad. But whenever I read the bible and what jesus said. It's totally the contrary, and that I should love everyone just as I love myself. ❤ In the end I just close my attention to everything and the negatives, and just learn to love and be understanding more and forgiving more. Going into the righteous path of life.

ライターとして働いていたのですね！文章がとても上手だな～といつも思っていました、さすがです(*^-^*) 私も「禅と食」という本を一冊持っていて、生活が少し雑になってきたなと感じた時に読んでいます♪ 実家は神道、義実家はキリスト教ですが、心に響く言葉は神道だろうと仏教だろうとキリスト教だろうと、何か困った時の助けになると思っています。

ありがとうございます！ その通りですね、語り継がれてきた古い言葉には宗教に関わらずパワーを感じますね。 「禅と食」読んだことがないのでチェックしてみます😊
