The influence of Buddhism on the thinking of the Chinese

Buddhism's influence on Chinese thinking is very extensive! China is a country with a long history, 5,000 years of history, creating an ancient civilization, China's culture is also very long, and there are many ethnic groups, ours, the native primitive religion should be Taoism.

Later, because of the introduction of Buddhism, Buddhism gradually became the mainstream of the Chinese people's belief, why did such a situation occur? It is because Buddhism was introduced to China in ancient times, favored by the emperor, and promoted to the whole country, and finally became a household name! Another reason is that Buddhism is tolerant, although it is a foreign religion, but it is very tolerant, and this tolerance is even as big as the universe!

It is because of this infinite tolerance, as well as his very rigorous system, that it will have a history of more than 2,000 years without declining, and Buddhism originated in ancient India.

This is what is now Nepal.

Nearby, Shakyamuni.

The Buddha was the crown prince of a small country before becoming a Buddha, and later he gave up the throne and all the glory and wealth, just to find the true meaning of life! After six years of asceticism in the snow-capped mountains, he finally became a Buddha under the Bodhi tree, and achieved the supreme avenue, and then spread Buddhism all over the world, and now there are hundreds of millions of people in the world who believe in Buddhism! The theory in Buddhism is very incisive, and it is very perfect, it is a very perfect system, a very big system!

This system is mainly about cause and effect, sowing good causes will get good results, and sowing evil causes will get bad results! And there's also the center, the idea that all sentient beings can become Buddhas! Buddhas are beings who have attained, and sentient beings are Buddhas who have not attained!

And the important point is selflessness! Because with me, there will be suffering, and with me, there will be greed, hatred, and ignorance.

Having me is the root of everything, so if you want to get out of the sea of suffering, you have to give up me, give up your attachment to me, your attachment to your body, this is the same as Confucius.

Speaking, there is a little similar!

The influence of Buddhism on the thinking of Chinese people should be long and profound, especially in our country, under the influence of Buddhism, ordinary people have developed a mentality of kindness and compassion and tolerance. In addition, out of respect for the Buddha, when encountering some emergencies or natural and man-made disasters around me, I will also think of Buddhism, hoping that there will be a force in the dark to help me tide over the difficulties.

The introduction of Buddhism had a great impact on people's concept of time and space, and greatly expanded the literary imagination.
