[Today's Lisa Zate Topic] Today's Japanese News; A Japanese Man and Buddhism


 This Japanese man is a monk, a make-up artist, and gay. He became interested in make-up from his early teens and went to the United States to become a make-up artist. After practicing and learning make-up, he decided to take over his father's trace as a monk at a temple, which is also his parents' home.

"What happens if I die?" "Why should I be kind to people?"

From that question, he decided to become a monk. He still does make-up, which other monks know. It seems that some people discriminated against being gay. But he says.

"Buddhism is free in Japan, which is in line with society and history. Buddhism allows homosexuality, accepts myself as a monk, and accepts equality with each other."

In this era, people make free contents. It is an era in which you can send what you like to people. It would be nice if it was sometimes praised, joyful or helpful, but of course there are many defamation now. People can say whatever they want because they are not talking face-to-face. When a person expresses a different opinion from me, I sometimes strongly say "my thought". The more famous people are, the more fans they have, but the more they dislike and hate. It is good for people to be honest. If we can convey our thoughts as we are, we would be happy if people around us could understand them. It's not all good things, every moment of life. We did something wrong, we heard it something dislike, we saw it, something bad happened, or we didn't like it. I saw a post when FACEBOOK was just started that the person was writing his own negative events. And in his opinion, "No one wants to hear the sad stories of your life." I immediately thought he was wrong. The person who wrote this felt and experienced the moment. She just posted on FACEBOOK that how she went there, whether it was a bright, clear place or a muddy, unknown place.

What are we doing wrong?

Needless to say, people's lives aren't all good, and if there are more people like this, and if someone can read what they have hidden, people with mental illness or depressed. They may be saved, or their feelings may be a little lighter. Everything that is sent out to the world is beautiful, and if it is all positive, many things will be hidden, and those people may not survive or die without anyone noticing. If he doesn't reveal what he's done for being gay, and if he doesn't reveal what he thinks, what he feels, and how he behaves in response to what he's done, it wouldn't have been known to those who were gay and disgusted. And there must have been gay people who continued to suffer.

Therefore, even in the United States, the anger of black people is now shown as a photo and as a video. If we hadn't seen the videos posted by amateurs, and had only seen what was edited by the media and believed only what was told, we only think that it would have been part of the usual gun society problem. ..

Should we realize that we are now given the opportunity to speak freely before we hurt and deny others?

Ignorance quickly hurt people.
