At the time of my father's funeral, I didn't even know the crest and the sects of my home.

If I had no sister, I was about to bury my father in another sectarian funeral.

I do not know how the administration of Mahayana Buddhism sect is in that world,

If, as I mentioned before, it was operated as a "comiket booth"

I was about to "guide" a unrelated booth to my father.

And, I could not able to meet my father's ancestors who were drinking tea in the rest area of the booth.

Thinking about it, a little cold sweat came out.

-----

So far, participating in the father-in-law and father's funeral events (including one round trip), I had many chances to listen to the preacher's sermon(?).

So, as I mentioned before, I have felt that there are contradictions between the events and the sermons in the event.

Simply speaking, the sermon of the Buddha's teachings, that says, "Away from the commitment, live, in the middle of an event (a funeral, a circle, etc.), is "funny", needless to say.

Even if you are not a second grader in junior high school, you should feel "funny" as an ordinary Japanese who participates in Buddhist events.

Before I have felt that.

"there is a huge gap between the teachings of Buddha and the teachings of Mahayana Buddhism sect we are operating.
