July 21, 2021

Question : What do you think about the Buddhawajana Group (Words of the Buddha)’s roadshow to propagate their way of following Buddha’s teachings, but denying teachings of arhats, because they were directly from the Buddha?

Answer : Our country is in the war of fighting against the disease. Everybody is all in the greatest difficulty. Why do we create emotional wars?

Buddha’s teachings are Buddhism.

Teachings of Buddha’s disciples are also Buddhism.

Even teachings and explanation of exegetes and commentators or in sub-subcommentary which are stated in the Tripitaka are also Buddhism.

Please do not create any controversy on minor differences that we cannot live together with anybody.

Dharma of the Buddha, no matter who taught or propagated, is all good.

It will be even better if teachers, propagators, and followers conscientiously practice them, until they see the real outcomes.

In brief, so long as it is the teaching of the Lord Buddha, even though it is taught by a beggar, but it is effective and dependable, it is real Buddhism.

If we listen to Lord Buddha’s teachings in front of the Buddha himself, but we cannot practice them, what is the use of it?

Teachings of Buddhism is measured by advantage.

After one has listened and studied any teaching, one can practice and it bring about advantages, it is real Buddhism.
