12.12.1997 - Interpretation of dali48 + update
The enormous destructive power of modern nuclear weapons has revolutionized the old war! - Differences of opinion between nations can now eradicate the whole earth, and lead the argument of self-defense "ad absurdum" - because in the end none (see only few, etc. - d.48) would survive! - There are many problems between nations that need to be solved - but they all fade in the face of the need to make an atomic war impossible! As long as this question is not resolved, everything else is meaningless! ... (D. Ikeda)What is the p5 statement nuclear war Cannot be won? - We affirm that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought. As nuclear use would have far-reaching consequences, we also affirm that nuclear weapons—for as long as they continue to exist—should serve defensive purposes, deter aggression, and prevent war.03.01.2022The 3 disasters and 7 accidents:
War, plague, famine, fire (see e.g. earthquakes, etc. - d.48), flood and storm; Lunar and solar eclipses, extraordinary movements of heavenly bodies, comets (see Halley 1997, etc. - d.48), weather and storms not according to season; Long periods of rain, strong heat and cold (see Climate Change etc. - d.48), typhoons and whirlwinds, drought, destruction of the nation by civil war or foreign invasion ...
Übersicht mit KIThe statement "3 disasters and 7 accidents" is not a universally recognized or standard classification of disasters. The phrase likely refers to a specific context or framework that categorizes potential catastrophic events. However, common classifications of disasters include natural disasters, man-made disasters, and technological disasters. The most frequent natural disasters include storms and floods. Here's a breakdown of common disaster categories and examples:Natural Disasters:Earthquakes: Sudden releases of energy in the Earth's crust, causing ground shaking and potential tsunamis. Floods: Overflow of water onto normally dry land, often caused by heavy rainfall or storm surges. Storms: Intense weather systems with high winds, precipitation, and potential for flooding or tornadoes. Tsunamis: Large ocean waves, often triggered by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. Wildfires: Uncontrolled fires that spread through vegetation.Drought: Prolonged periods of abnormally low rainfall. Volcanic Eruptions: The release of lava, ash, and gases from a volcano. Hurricanes/Typhoons/Cyclones: Powerful rotating storms that form over tropical oceans. Man-Made Disasters:War: Armed conflict between nations or groups. Terrorism: The use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims. Civil Disorder: Widespread public unrest and violence. Accidents: Unintentional events that result in injury, death, or property damage. Examples include industrial accidents, transportation accidents, and structural failures. Fires: Uncontrolled combustion that can result in significant damage and loss of life. Famine: Severe food shortage that can lead to widespread starvation. Plagues/Pandemics: Widespread outbreaks of infectious diseases. Chemical/Biological/Radiological/Nuclear (CBRN) Events: Events involving the release of hazardous materials. Cyberattacks: Malicious attacks on computer systems or networks. Technological Disasters:Infrastructure Failures:The collapse or malfunction of critical infrastructure like dams, bridges, or power grids.Industrial Accidents:Accidents that occur in industrial settings, such as chemical spills or explosions. The list of "3 disasters and 7 accidents" is not standard and may be a specific framework used for a particular purpose. The categories and examples above provide a more comprehensive overview of potential disasters.
The 3 existences (Sanse): Past, Present and Future. - Together they create the continuum of individual and universal life, - and are subject to the law of Karma ...
Übersicht mit KIIn Buddhist philosophy, the concept of "three existences" or "three times" (past, present, and future) is fundamental to understanding the nature of reality and the cycle of rebirth. While acknowledging the linear flow of time, Buddhism also explores how these three times coexist and impact one another. Here's a breakdown:Past:The past is not simply a fixed and distant memory. It continues to influence the present and future through karma and accumulated experiences. Present:The present moment is not a static point but a continuous flow of change and impermanence. It is where actions are taken and where the effects of past actions manifest. Future:The future is not predetermined but is shaped by present actions and the consequences of past actions. It is a realm of potential, influenced by the choices made in the present. Buddhism emphasizes the importance of understanding these three times and their interconnectedness to cultivate wisdom and liberation. The Buddha often advised followers to not dwell in the past or be consumed by future anxieties, but to focus on the present moment to make conscious choices and break free from the cycle of suffering. Key Buddhist concepts related to the three times include: Anicca (Impermanence):All things, including time itself, are constantly changing and impermanent.Dukkha (Suffering/Dissatisfaction):The inherent unsatisfactoriness of existence, stemming from attachment to impermanent things.Anatta (No-self):The absence of a permanent, unchanging self or soul, highlighting the interconnectedness of all things.
All life consists of 10 factors:Form, nature, essence, force, influence, internal cause, external cause, relationship, inner effect, external effect, conformity from beginning to end ...
Übersicht mit KIThe ten factors of life, as described in Nichiren Buddhism, are: appearance, nature, entity, power, influence, internal cause, relation, latent effect, manifest effect, and consistency from beginning to end. These factors are believed to be present in all life forms, regardless of the "Ten Worlds" they may inhabit. Here's a breakdown of each factor:Appearance: How a life form is perceived externally. Nature: The inherent qualities or characteristics of a life form. Entity: The fundamental, underlying essence of a life form. Power: The potential energy or capacity for action within a life form. Influence: The outward expression of that power and its effect on other life forms or phenomena. Internal Cause: The primary, inherent cause within a life form that produces effects. Relation: External conditions or factors that interact with the internal cause to bring about an effect. Latent Effect: The dormant effect that arises from the interaction of the internal cause and its relation. Manifest Effect: The evident result or outcome that emerges from the latent effect. Consistency from Beginning to End: The unchanging essence that permeates all other factors throughout the entire process of cause and effect.
The 10 states of life:They manifest themselves in all the physical and mental aspects of human activity:Hell, hunger, animality, eyes, rest, delight, learning, divine enlightenment, Bodhisattva nature, Buddhaship ... (D. Ikeda)
Übersicht mit KIThe "Ten Worlds" is a Buddhist concept describing ten distinct life conditions or states of being, each with unique characteristics and potential for transformation. These states, which can manifest in all aspects of a person's life, are: Hell, Hunger, Animality, Anger, Humanity, Rapture, Learning, Realization, Bodhisattva, and Buddhahood. Each world is not a separate place, but rather a different way of experiencing life and can be experienced by anyone, moment to moment. Here's a breakdown of the Ten Worlds:The Six Lower Worlds:Hell:A state of intense suffering, characterized by negativity, despair, and a sense of being trapped.Hunger:A state of insatiable desire and craving, where one is never satisfied.Animality:A state of instinct and lack of reason or morality, where one is driven by basic impulses.Anger:A state of aggression, competitiveness, and selfishness, where one is ruled by arrogance and negativity.Humanity:A state of relative peace and stability, where one is able to reason and make choices.Rapture:A state of joy and happiness, but one that is often temporary and dependent on external circumstances. The Four Noble Worlds:Learning:A state of seeking and striving to understand the truth.Realization:A state of understanding the truth and awakening to the potential for enlightenment.Bodhisattva:A state of striving to help others achieve enlightenment, characterized by compassion and wisdom.Buddhahood:The state of perfect enlightenment and wisdom, characterized by absolute happiness and freedom from suffering. Key aspects of the Ten Worlds:Mutual Possession:Each of the Ten Worlds contains the potential for all the other nine. This means that even in the most difficult circumstances, the potential for Buddhahood exists.Transformation:By recognizing and understanding the Ten Worlds within themselves, individuals can work to transform their lives and manifest more positive states of being.Not Fixed:The Ten Worlds are not fixed states; they can change from moment to moment depending on one's thoughts, actions, and environment.
