In Response To: take a Buddhists perspective on the morality issue (Michael Goodman)

MG,
It's funny that you mentioned this. The first issue of Alchemy includes some captions that relate to this in detail.

Best,
DM

: Saphire,

: Thanks for the insights. I enjoyed your commentary on the
: story and understanding Ukiko's and Keiko's feelings.

: Andy,
: You're both right. In the heart of the moment (during the
: reading) we are filled with emotion. After some time
: goes by, we can grieve and reflect.

: I'm no expert on Japanese culture. But I'm preparing to
: move to either Okinawa or Japan by next August
: (hopefully through the JET program). So I've been
: making friends with Japanese students and Americans
: who have lived in Japan in order to learn the language
: and culture. Most Japanese are Buddhists. And in
: Buddhism (I'm not an expert on this subject, either),
: there is a belief in rebirth. It's okay to die,
: because you get reborn. In the West, we fear death. We
: dread death. But in Eastern philospophy and religions,
: especially Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism (which I am
: practicing), death is not met with fear and dread,
: instead, it can be seen as either the soul entering
: the next stage of life (Hinduism, Pre-Nirvana
: Buddhism), or as a return to the primordial source of
: energy (Taoism). Miss Fumiko of the First Zen
: Institute, if you are reading this and I have errored,
: please correct me.
