Amida Buddha does not require from us to become martyrs (video teaching)

 This is one of my recent video teachings recorded during a zoom meeting with some of the members of Amidaji. You can see the whole playlist DHARMA TALKS at this link (click here).

 

Unlike other religions, the Buddha Dharma and Amida Buddha himself do not asks us to be martyrs. This must be well understood as a very important difference from Christianity or Islam. Amida Buddha does NOT suffer like the monotheistic god from the need for attention. He does not threat us to punish our children and grandchildren until the fourth generation if we do not obey him like the so-called god of the monotheists (see the 1st commandment). Our Amida Buddha is a mature, enlightened Person without any trace of jealousy and ego. I've always noticed there is an obsession with blood and drama in monotheistic religions. Too much telenovela for a god with a psychopathic personality disorder.
