Why do people have to go through hell once?

 Even if everyone is ultimately saved, is it God's (Buddha's) willingness to see hell once?


Of course, I don't want to see hell either. That's why


"God, please don't put your servant through the temptation."


I pray every day, but if it's God's will that I see hell, then there's nothing I can do. I wish it would be as mild as possible.


But why do I have to see hell?


You often see popular clergymen who call themselves "former gang members" or "former bad boys(girls)".  The reason they're so popular is because they understand hell well, having seen it once. If you think about it, how can you save people from hell without knowing it? Surely a "former so-and-so" would understand the feelings of those in hell?


In other words, isn't God's reason for letting us see hell once so that we can save those who are in hell later?


So, what about me? I was the skinniest in my class, so I wasn't particularly good at fighting, and I tried to avoid bad boys as much as possible. I still am. Basically, I'm not good with that kind of people. Well, rabbits, that is. It's the same as how herbivores instinctively sense carnivores and run away like rabbits; it's just a matter of following the survival instinct inherent in living things. God bestows upon the weak the wisdom to survive in their own way.


So, did I go through hell? Well, I guess. That was probably it. I was...


"Online Game Addict"


As I've confessed before, I was addicted to online games, or rather, I played a lot offline too, so I was addicted to games. My wife and kids got fed up with me, and I almost threw my life away. Actually, I've already thrown it away. I've tried to quit so many times before. I threw away my PlayStation three times. That means I had to buy a new one three times. It was serious. After that, I moved to PC gaming, but I continued to try and quit many times, but failed. Whenever I tried to quit, it was always because my wife got mad. Back then, she would break my CDs. It's now been over a year since I quit. It's the longest I've ever been. I've even uninstalled STEAM and all the apps. I hope I can keep going like this.


So I understand how game addicts feel; It's so clear . And addiction isn't limited to games; it could be gambling, alcohol, nicotine, drugs, hosts, underground idols—the symptoms are the same, even if the object is different. It's a straight road to ruin. You're all laughing, but humans have been addicted to money for about 3,000 years.


Well, this story is getting long, so I'll leave it at that for today.


Let love and mercy guide you.

Do not charge interest

 "You shall not earn interest." This is a famous teaching in the Quran, and it is a powerful blow that nullifies the self-replicating function of money. As I wrote before, "Money is already LIFE because it has the ability to self-replicate." and the basis of that self-replicating function of money is "interest." Humans created "money" to replace barter, making trade and the accumulation of wealth easier. Furthermore, by granting "interest" to money, they gave money itself the ability to self-replicate. They breathed the "life" into money. Money then began to have the will to "increase on its own," and as a means to dominate, it used humans. Once you give money interest, it grows exponentially, just like living things grow exponentially. (Just by looking at the way it grows, you can see that money has "life".) For example, when a cell divides, it doubles. When it divides again, it doubles again. It's 2 t...

The birth of a new life called "money"

 I was at the enemy's headquarters. A place where there is a lot of money. A place where money gathers. A bank. "Traitor!" Indeed. "Are you a spy?" Maybe. Maybe a "double agent." "Why did you join the bank?" Of course, "Because I love money!" When I was in the accounting department, "Mr. X, please give me 200 million by 3 o'clock." "Got it!" I seal 100 10,000 yen($100) bills in a small band, then seal 10 of them in a large band to make 10 million. 10 of those make 100 million, and 20 of those make 200 million. It takes about 30 minutes to make it. I put it in a bag. One person can manage 100 million yen ($1million) , but 200 million yen ($2million) would be difficult unless there are two people. It's money. Money. My beloved money. It's the money I dreamed of and longed for. There's lots of it. There's no end to it. Whether you look to the right, to the left, forward, backward, down, or up, th...

How to win "Money"

 If you borrow money, interest will accrue and it will grow exponentially, so you will soon lose control and be ruined. We have seen the scary power of exponential growth, but is there no way to beat money? Is this already a losing battle? Wait a minute. Why not just not borrow money? Or rather, what would happen if you deposited money? The current interest rate for fixed deposits in US dollars is... 4.1% (Sumitomo Mitsui SBI). 1.041 to the 100th power is... 1.041 to the 100th power is about 55.60. (by ChatGPT) "55.6 times! I did it! I'm rich." You'll be dead in 100 years? Right. That's pointless. Well, if it's 30 years, 1.041 to the 30th power is about 3.34. (by ChatGPT) "3.34 times? That's pretty good. I'm not poor anymore." Did you just win? To money? Our enemy, that almost invincible "money"? Debts grow exponentially, but so do savings, so if we can use the secret of our enemy's strength, the "interest" system, to ...
