When God created all things, there was no Buddha

Whether it is God who created all things, or Pangu who opened the heavens and the earth, or God who created man, in fact, what we are talking about is how the universe or heaven and earth were formed, and there are similar myths in general religions, and there is a creator who exists, but the name has changed.

But Buddhism is different. There is no creator in Buddhism. The Buddha is not the creator of the world, nor is there a creator, Buddhism believes that everything arises from causes, time has no beginning and no end, it can be understood as a circle, where is the beginning?

Where is the end? You can only take a point relatively, and use it as the boundary, with one direction as the beginning and one direction as the end.

Moreover, Buddhism believes that the Buddha is not unique like God in Catholicism or Pangu in Chinese legends, but that the Buddha is a person or sentient being who is blessed and wise, and all sentient beings can become Buddhas. Including Heavenly Dao, humans and animals, ghosts, and hellish beings. Everyone has Buddha nature.

In other words, sentient beings are lost Buddhas, and Buddhas are enlightened sentient beings. This is what distinguishes Buddhism from other religions.

If you are talking about God by Jesus Himself, then the Buddha appeared on earth more than 500 years before Jesus Himself.

If God were Jesus Himself, He would not have been able to create the universe. Because there was the universe and mankind for tens of millions of years before Jesus.

If God is an invisible being, then the true body of the Buddha (called Dharmakaya by the Buddhists) is also formless, formless, all-pervasive, omniscient, and omnipotent, then God and the Buddha are the same phenomenon.

God created heaven and earth in seven days. The wonder and mystery of this creation can be written by invisible pen and ink, and cannot be explained by resorting to words. On the first day God said:

Let there be light! "And there was light. God separated the light from the darkness, calling the light day and the darkness night.

So there was evening and there was morning. And God said the next day:"Let the waters be separated by air.

And God made the air and called it heaven. On the third day God said:"Let the waters of the whole world be gathered together in one place, and the dry land will be exposed.

Thus the water and the dry land were separated. God called the dry land the continent, and the place where the waters were gathered up was the sea. And God commanded that the earth should bring forth grass and all sorts of flowering and seed-bearing vegetables, and fruit-bearing trees, with kernels wrapped in their fruits.

And the world was done according to God's word. On the fourth day God said:"And there shall be a body of light in heaven, which shall be in charge of day and night, and shall be a sign, and shall set seasons, days, and years, and shall shine upon all the earth.

So God created a merchant body of light and divided the work among them, so that the big one would rule over the day and the small one would rule over the night. God created countless stars. Lay them in the canopy.

On the fifth day God said,"Let the water multiply and multiply living things, and let the birds fly on the earth and in the sky. "And God made great fish, and all kinds of life in waters, and made them according to their kinds; And God made every kind of bird, and made them according to their kind. God was very pleased to see his creations, and he blessed them so that they would multiply and multiply, and spread the rivers, seas, lakes, plains, and valleys.

On the sixth day God said:"The earth will bring forth living creatures; Cattle, insects, and wild beasts are of their own kind. "So God created these creatures to follow their kinds.

When God saw that all things were working together, that they were born and destroyed, he said,"And I will make man in my image, and in my likeness, and I will put them over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle of the earth, and over all the creeping things that creep on the earth. "God created man in His own image.

And God blessed them, intending to make them spirits of all things, and said unto them:"and multiply and fill the earth, and rule over all the earth, and over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over every living creature of the earth. "According to the Bible, human beings are the rulers and rulers of this world.

On the seventh day, all things in the heavens and the earth were finished, and God completed the work of creation. On this day he rested and blessed the sixth day, sanctifying that day as a special day, because on that day he had completed his creation and rested. In this way, Sunday also became a day of rest for mankind.

This is the Jewish Old Testament of Genesis.

Yahweh, the god of the Old Testament, translated into Chinese, was God in the early days, and it was God who created human beings and all things.

Because the Chinese worship the Emperor God, Protestantism later changed the translation to God, and there is a saying that God created human beings and all things.

The creator god in Chinese mythology is Pangu, which is actually the universe, because it itself has become the universe, and the creator of man is the dragon clan, the Nuwa Fuxi clan. And the emperor god of the Chinese nation refers to the ancestor of the Chinese: the five emperors of Yan and Huang.
