NAM MYOHO RENGE KYO (Part 4 of 9) = Regarding Homosexuality.

[mythmanjay]

Kosen-rufu is not 'earned,' it is given to all (as the actual meaning of the word implies) and is found by those who use it. And the bird was slightly-wrong about the nature of things ... people can choose either to go with their nature (evil, lazy, whatever) or to change their nature through practice. For example, I was born left-handed (both times), but am now right-handed.

[LIFESKEY]

@mythmanjay for kosen rufu to manifest it is necessary for respect for the Law to prevail. In other words, it is an effect that comes about as a result of enough good causes. It cannot be created like something physical - it is a state of LIFE that exists within all Life & so far we cannot imagine what it is, because it has never existed in this world yet. But it certainly doesn't just pop up by chance or demand - the right causes have to be in progress for it to happen & that takes effort.

[LIFESKEY]

@mythmanjay what an extraordinary comparison you present! A persons sexuality goes far far deeper than left handedness my friend. I am assuming that you are not gay, in which case I suggest to you try to turn yourself gay and see if it is as easy as learning to write with your right hand. Many gay people are able to have sex with the opposite sex, it's true. It happens all the time where females lives are ruined by males who use them to try to hide who they really are.

1 of 2 continued...

[LIFESKEY]

@mythmanjay 2 of 2. But eventually most of those males end up cheating on their wives with men or leaving them for men. Sometimes they love their wife very much, but they are not truly in love and no matter how hard they try, they just cannot overcome who they truly are. Perhaps if you try to be a gay person you will understand and be more realistic in your comments. Which by the way, have all been negative. Not once have you had something supportive to say, so it seems you are out to hassle.

[WeSpeak]

That was the single most annoying video I've ever seen.

[matureasian]

Well it sure don't take a lot for you to fall apart - I've heard tons worse than this. :o)

[reiyi]

Just now, I was listening without watching the video. Eventhough the bird was speaking unclearly, I cannot detect a tiny teeny bit of anti-gay sentiments in it.

I still cannot get how any can make this mistake.

[reiyi]

I don't get how anyone can watch this video and think Buddhism condems homosexuality and this vid is mocking and ridiculing it.

This video is doing the exact opposite, asking us not to judge and condemn.

This video actually advocates tolerance on people who are different because we don't understand everything about nature.

[freedchild23]

animals and humans are not the same.

[matureasian]

You could be right freechild - although science says we humans are part of the animal chain - but regardless if we are or not, Nature is the same in all things. For example, most things feel pain, have a sex drive, experience fear and joy etc etc.

In other words 'behaviour' is one thing in all things and Nature is behind all behaviour... me thinks :o))

[YoungWisdom044]

Very interesting and i would like to agree with matureasian it makes perfect sense. Though i'm not a follower of this faith it's good to know that some faith's still exist in which spiritual attunement and understanding is highly valued

[matureasian]

This video makes perfect common sense sense to me! How could anyone with any wisdom argue with its logic?

[doshkivic]

Can't believe even Buddhism condemns homosexuality and this vid is mocking and ridicules it. After all, these religions pass judgement on others who do not fit into their beliefs.

[Desinokara]

Lifeskey how is it the responds of an enlightened person to redicule SunriseNY with the persons choice of favourites? Truly Nam Myoho Renge Kyo teaches something else, or your should consult the teachings of Nichiren.

[LIFESKEY]

Desinokara - I have no idea what you are trying to say. I'm not sure many people who read what u have written would understand your questioning. Could you please be more clear and write again.

However, comparing homosexuality with child molesters and rapists is an extremely homophobic, uneducated and rediculous assesment.

[doshkivic]

Greenhorn: Do u know the Eight-fold Path? Right Speech- u use "uneducated & rediculous" is not right speech. U speak with such pretentious tone & purposely make the interviewee sound like a idiot. That's bad karma. U disgust me. People like u repel me who's trying to seek the Truth from finding more abt what is Namo Myoho Renge Kyo. What ever religion u have adopted, u remain the typical American - superiority complex.

[doshkivic]

Oh, she's Australian, no difference - targets of Jihadists - because they r so self-righteous & arrogant that make Radical Muslims hate them.

[doshkivic]

If this simple-minded woman were "enlightened" she would not have made such a vid that is offensive & stirs conflict. A good beneficialBuddhist-themed vid brings only peace and calm to the viewers, like the Heart Sutra. Whenever I'm distressed, I listen to it, transquility fills me & I feel so relaxed after that. It's all sediments sink, & the pond is clear. This woman put up a vid that stirs up conflicts

[LIFESKEY]

Doshkivic: if anyone's a fanatic & misinformed about Buddhism it's you!

Nichiren Buddhism does NOT condemn homosexuality nor does it have any other prejudices.

I can't be bothered commenting on anything else you have said except that Buddha Nichiren said many things that offended people and stirred conflict. He was not afraid to speak the truth. Perhaps you should study his teachings cuz you have not been expressing much common sense.

[LIFESKEY]

I have just looked at sunriseNY's comments and am now able to figure out what you are saying Desinokara.

At the time sunrise NY made the comments I had taken a look at his/her website, which was full of very perverted video's of naked women. I was surprised that someone into this sort of thing could make the comments that were made towards my video.

I notice now all those videos have been removed, so you would not see the evidence.

[Desinokara]

evidence or no evidence. You seemed more interested in bullying than in make logical responds.

[doshkivic]

I agree with u. She just another religious fanatic who is so arrogant.

[doshkivic]

If she were enlightened, she would not have put up this vid. She's just another religious fanatics, like the radical islamists.

[blackpride1001]

Lifes Key thank you very much for this ! and thank you for being so calm when addressing people's negative comments !

may the lotus sutra continue to bless you :)

[Gilder547]

First I would like to say thank you for all your hard work. It must have taken a long time and much effort to put this together.

Secondly I must say I am impressed with your courage to speak the truth regardless the risks. Not only do you discuss complex Buddhist concepts, you also relate them to controversial real subjects.

[LIFESKEY]

Thank you for your comment Gilder and you are absolutely right!

That's what Nichiren's Buddhism is about - real life! It has an answer to any subject and a solution to any problem because it is all pure common sense and courage is its backbone. Faith is our strength!

Thank you..:o)

[doshkivic]

Just another religion like Catholism, Islam. Religions incite prejudice, discrimination & separate people. & U r no difference from them.When u pass judgement on others, u r commit bad karma. Ur religion is a cult. You give Buddhism a bad name. U r really disgusting by making the interviewee speak like an idiot. And u urself speak with a self-righteous tone. U disgust me. It is people like u that repel me someone who's trying to seek the Truth from coming to find out more abt your belief.

[doshkivic]

Nichiren is a cult - a deviation from the main teaching of the Buddha. People can remain calm while insulting others. Why r u putting a picture of uerself wearing a flesh-revealing bikini on this vid, cultist?

[LIFESKEY]

Are you crazy?

What the hell are you raving on about with your "flesh revealing bikini" pictures???

[doshkivic]

Miss Lifeskey: I can't hear the dialogue properly cos & I mistaken u r condemning the gays & lesbians. I have attended so many church sermons that condemning this & that, calling this a sin & that a sin, and I'm sick of it. I respect the freedom of others as long as what they do not hurt others. I'm so sorry, I have misunderstood you & attacked u with hurtful remarks. I am really very sorry.Please accept my apology. I'm don't belong to any sect, but still searching.

[LIFESKEY]

I accept your appology and respect you for being honest and putting things right.

Please try chanting Nam myoho renge kyo and you will discover what a wonderful difference it will make to your life.

Peace be with you... :o)

[blessedhell0024]

This is some crazy ass propoganda.Are these videos meant to spread Buddhist beliefs to children!? dont think i dont know what you're doing with the goofy voice and using animals as mental visuals are you fucking nuts? im all for gay, straight, bi what the hell ever right? But you are clearly Insane. Talking about the "eight Winds" in some goofy voice has just as litte chance of converting me as do fals images of christian Hells.

[LIFESKEY]

Well I guess your ID name says it all sadly. Unfortunately your mind is in a hell state & that's how you see everything - hellish & distorted. I'm sorry u are suffering so much & strongly urge you to check out Parts 7 & 8 in order to understand yourself & allow yourself a chance to tap into your hidden potential that you are capable of enjoying.:o)

[LIFESKEY]

Of course I welcome your comments and you are free to your point of view. However, from what you have stated here, I strongly encourage you to take a good long look at your own desires. Enjoy your life :o)

[LIFESKEY]

You are the only person in almost 500 who has complained this way. Could it be that you yourself are childish in failing to comprehend the message, because to me, it makes perfect common sense. You are NOT correct, as several Buddhist groups around the world are now performing gay marraiges where it is lawfully allowed. Including Nichiren priests from what I have been advised. I expect it won't be long before Japan and other Asian countries will change their laws too.

[SunriseNYC999]

Just because you were born such a way (physically and mentally) never justify what you DO. Do you let rapist and child molesters do what they want to do? They were born such a way mentally. Indivisual freedom is not always benefit social freedom. Indivisual value is not always reflect teh social value.

[LIFESKEY]

SunriseNY. I just looked at your favourites and found sveral very perverted pics/videos of females. Don't you think your comments on my video are rather hypocritical? It appears that you have a perverted mind yourself which you are not able to control and yet you are condemning gays for being gay and suggesting they should not act upon their feelings. You have even compared them to rapists and child molesters.

[SunriseNYC999]

A very childish and viased view point was presented in this video. The fact is that NO Buddhist countries in Asia - Japan, Korea, China, etc. allow homosexual marriage. (Japan is sexually bi-sexual nation for many centuries and it is the home of Daishonin and NIchiren shoshu buddhism but it still never recognize homesexual marriage.)

Morality can not be determined by indivisual choice. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

[LIFESKEY]

Just chant Nam myoho renge kyo and discover in your own life what a wonderful asset it is to you. You will definitely get proof in and around your life that something very powerful is taking effect for the better, even though it may sometimes mean you have to cross a few bumpy spots to get on the right track to your true happiness. Try it and see - even if you don't believe it. Cuz it won't let you down and you will receive actual proof in your life... :o))
