"How is your daily life affected by Buddhism?
What do you do and why do you do it?"
★When I eat meal, I say "itadakimasu" and put my hand together.
But I do not know why we do it.
It is our custom.
★ If household Buddhist altar(Japanese say "butudan".) place ground floor,
we would not stand some place at first floor.
-We must not stand Buddha.
Hello.
返信削除I enjoyed your blog♪ I agree with your ideas. FOr example,I wrote about "itadakimasu". I htink it is most powerful custom in Buddhism. As you know, you don't know about why we do it.. In addition,I don't know the reason...
Hi!!!
返信削除I agree with your blogs comment.
I don't know about a Buddhist alter.
I think Budedhism is very modest...
Hello,
返信削除I didn't know that why we do "itadakimasu" you, too.
It is doing that Japanese has a good command as a custom.
When I eat meal I say "Itadakimasu" too.
返信削除But I don't know, why everyone say it.
Hello.
返信削除Almost Japanese people say "Itadakimasu" before they eat foods,but I didn't know meaning too.
It is important to know Japanese custom.
Thank you everyone for give me comments.
返信削除I am not sure that "Itadakimasu" comes from Buddhist idea, either; however, this phrase is very peticulat to Japan, I think.
返信削除I could not find any words equivalent to this pharase.
