On the introduction of Buddhism into the Internet

When the Internet meets the Living Buddha, "Cloud Dojo" came into being. The dissemination of dharma ideas through the Internet is no doubt more efficient and more market-incense than online. The Internet eliminates time and space constraints, allowing more people to feel the Dharma.

May 10, 2014, thousands of Internet practitioners and media workers gathered at the conference held by Chinese Internet entrepreneurs in the Beijing International Convention Center. And in the General Assembly appeared a let all present people unexpected guests-Gatzow living Buddha.

Gatzow Living Buddha, Yajiang Zaga, is the founder of the charity fund, in 2014 published the first work "Everything is the best arrangement." He is not only one of the most influential spiritual instructors, but also one of the most powerful intellectual instructors in the contemporary new media era. Gatzow Living Buddha For many years has been committed to the spread of cultural exchanges, the development of home education and various social undertakings, Gatzow currently in Sina Weibo, Tencent micro-blog, micro-community platform has more than 10 million of fans.

Gatzow the appearance of the Buddha led to a large number of entrepreneurs of the onlookers group photo, in the micro-Community Billboard Awards link after the end of the Rapid Research Institute Dean Dingdao Division, discuz! Marketing director Zhang Small lake, and Gatzow living Buddha carried out a spiritual dialogue, together to explore the mobile internet era of Buddhism and Buddha's eyes in the "Cloud Dojo."

Buddhism and the Internet

"In the ordinary people's understanding, the meditation Buddha is fastidious pure, is far from the noisy." And the Internet is a high-speed development of the industry, but also an impetuous industry. The two seem contradictory and difficult to balance. In the face of the Dingdao, Gatzow Buddha believes that Buddhism and the outside world communicate very frequently, the Internet is also one of the paths. The internet is a high-speed development of the industry, Buddhism is also at the rapid development. In fact, many years ago, Gatzow began to deal with the Internet, and has visited the Internet companies, including Alibaba, Sina. In the eyes of the Living Buddha, everything is the fate, all can preach.

It seems to many people that the internet and Buddhism seem a little nondescript. In fact, through the internet this way to spread the idea of living Buddha, than online under the incense way more advantages. Gatzow the Buddha gave a very simple example: the Internet can affect 10 million of fans, and temples can only receive tens of thousands of people a year.

"If in the past, our believers to burn incense to visit, need to go to the temple inside, and go to the temple to buy tickets, incense and spend money." And a temple has a limited capacity to receive a day, and it is unlikely to receive more believers in a day. And now, for example, Weibo, I have a total of 10 million fans in two micro blogs (this refers to Tencent and Sina Weibo), and 10 million people can see my understanding and view of Buddha every day, the internet eliminates the restrictions of geography and space, so that more people can feel the benefits of Buddha. This is a traditional temple to receive 10 million of believers, do not dare to think. "Gatzow," said the Buddha.

Buddhism and O2O

People may not have imagined that the Dharma spread is also a O2O path.

Gatzow said that through micro-blog, micro-community for online preaching, and then under the line (temples, activities) with the believers to meet, the spread of Buddhism must be line and offline combination, that is, the Internet O2O.

"Will the living Buddha try to communicate online with believers through new media such as micro-blogging, micro-trust and micro-community?" Facing the question of Dingdao, the Living Buddha tells the time of his daily contact with new media platform: No more than 2 hours.

"Everyone feels like I've been on the internet, and I'm actually making some sound every day on a platform such as Weibo and micro-community, not more than 2 hours, and it doesn't affect normal routines." And the interaction with believers is not the most important, for the Dharma, the first time you do not understand, the second, the third natural gradually will understand. Buddha pays attention to epiphany. "Gatzow Buddha Road."

Micro community and Cloud Dojo

Living Buddhas have more time to spread the Buddhist ideas through micro-blogging, interacting with believers, and this year has focused more on the micro-community, what is the advantage of the micro-community? Gatzow that the micro-community is like a cloud-based dojo, connected to believers more closely and with unlimited capacity.

"Your Internet industry has a term called cloud, and the micro community is like a cloud dojo." "In the micro-community, the living Buddha gathered a large number of loyal fans, on this platform we can monastic, chant, or do some charitable things, without going offline."

The Gatzow of Living Buddha's micro-community is: first, micro-trust public platform is a one-to-many way of communication, and the micro-community is a many-to-many way of communication, the micro-community platform for believers to communicate with each other more closely; Secondly, the interaction of the micro-community can be resolving to the believers, and the living Buddha cannot answer the questions of the 10 million believers, but in the micro-community, Friends will also answer each other; third, the micro-community platform capacity is almost unlimited, can accommodate countless believers, and finally, back to O2O, the believers through the micro-community to meet, online will also form some intersection, everyone meditation, doing good.

Anxiety, depression and internet syndrome

At the end of the dialogue, Ding the anxiety of the Internet practitioner to Gatzow living Buddha. The internet industry is a fast-paced, high-speed development of the industry, anxiety, depression, suicide, and even the sudden death of labor and other phenomena, from the grassroots staff to the company executives.　　Is there a way to be free in the Dharma? Living Buddhas use "causal theory" to look at the Internet, and other industries anxiety disorders. "All things have cause and effect, now encounter misfortune, this is the fruit, and because of the mistakes of past lives, now the fruit is to redeem the cause of past life." "In other words, anxiety, depression, that is the wrong thing to pursue before, or too much emphasis on something to put down, resulting in the present situation."

Living Buddha in Micro-bo on this kind of things have also been answered: people sometimes, really do not know what to seek? Often the most worthy of maintenance and precious things overlooked. Now many people are in overdraft health, often excuses work busy, socializing more, so that their premature in sub-health state. In fact, the world again rich people, also can not buy back their own health. We are busy pursuing all kinds of interests, but ignore the health is our first need to safeguard the interests, just imagine, we even have no, what else?

In Gatzow's "Everything is the best arrangement", the Living Buddha wrote: "How many impermanence, there are many spiritual practice ..." Practice is a process from the inside out, there are two ways: one is external repair, one is internal repair. The practice of external repair is the cultivation of survival skills, while internal repair is our inner understanding and purification. The size of a person's inner strength often becomes an important condition for his well-being in this world.

Living Buddha described his own internal repair: my childhood and most of the Tibetan children, in the mountains of God, streams, blue sky clouds between the slope, and come and go yak, antelope, around the shabby cabin, comfortable and happy to live. I always like a person to think quietly, the only thing I love to do is to pinch Tsampa do the offerings. Sister, aunt to find me work, I refused, I said: "I am old, do not want to work, want to rest ..."

There may be a day when working overtime, anxious, depressed Internet practitioners will summon the courage to say to their bosses: "I'm old, I don't want to work, I want to rest." "Learn to accept imperfections, learn to relax and calm down, for themselves, for others to knot a good fruit." Everything is the best arrangement.
