What is an upaya? My way of thinking that can be seen from there

Hi, this is Noraneko.

I will write what I learned by looking at a certain tweet recently.

It may be wrong from time to time, so please take a look for reference.

First of all, from the meaning of upaya.

What is an upaya?

I had a convenient image of upaya. But this tweet told me that it was a misunderstanding.

When I saw the tweet, I interpreted the upaya as "taking measures that match the desires of the other party."

It is a prerequisite to understand the other person in order to meet the other person's wishes. For example, it's honestly annoying to someone who cooks more and more when the other person is full.

Also, people who just say good luck. It's possible that these people aren't looking at the other person either.

Because if you're thinking about the other person, it's not just words.

I think the action is also a set. Therefore, know the desire of the other party. You need an opportunity to get to know the other person deeply.

What is the original meaning of upaya?

The original meaning of upaya is to get closer to the truth. Truth is a law. It's a rule.

In addition, the upaya has another meaning, and it should be adjusted to the other party's kikon. Kikon is the ability to believe and practice Buddhism. In addition, try separating the kikons one character at a time. The meaning of the machine is work. The meaning of the root is the underlying nature and personality of a person. There is such a meaning.

I thought so. The underlying nature of humans seems to be difficult. In other words, it feels like a natural vessel? No, don't you know more?

For me, who thought that the upaya was a lie, this was a continuous learning process.

Upaya has a better meaning, isn't it? Present the means according to the other party's roots and desires.

This is necessary in education, isn't it?

I think that is exactly what school education is today. It's kind of like a one-way street. I will hand over the teaching materials unilaterally because it is okay to do this much. Homework is like that.

To be honest, it's a delicate point whether I was able to do it myself. However, being able to draw out my thoughts in this way is a harvest.

Happy with the other person Happy with myself

It's very difficult, but I think it's quite important to find a way to make both the other person and yourself happy.

However, when it comes to actual battles, it's hard to think of it. You can't think of it without training on a regular basis.

For example, people who like comedy and people who don't like it.

It may be good to think about what is the way to convince both. You can see it when you actually think about it, but it doesn't come out suddenly, right? I myself am still training, so I can't come out.

It may be quite aggressive, but I think people who like comedy will need a sense of solidarity and empathy. If you don't like comedy, is it the opposite? Someone who doesn't want to sympathize? Someone who prefers to be alone rather than a sense of solidarity. Someone who loves loneliness.

Yup. I wonder what? Is it like making a comedy with video distribution on the Internet? Are you already doing it? If this is the case, people who don't like comedy may also like it. It feels uncoordinated, but I can only think of this much now.

I'm a little tired, so I'll end here.

If you like, please give us your impressions.

I am very pleased!

Thank you very much.
