1. How is your daily life affected by Buddhism? What do you do and why do you do it?
I think that The Buddhism influences our life very much. Especially young peoples pursue appetite, beauty, health. So, we attention to Zen meditation and breathing method, a fast of the Buddhism, vegetarian cooking.
Why does the Buddhist eat vegetarian cooking? It is because killing is forbidden in the Buddhism. I eat vegetarian cooking by all means on the day of the funeral.
In addition, We have an event of ringing bells on New Year's Eve on December 31 in Japan. I completed the last night of one year, and various events have been performed in a meaning to spare the year that passed for from old days. 108 times of ringing bells on New Year's Eve are tiring in several temples on reaching new age in that. Then why will be it that it points out 108 times of ringing bells on New Year's Eve. Three time of past, present, and future affects it and become 36 ×3=108. It is said that this is 108 worldly desires.
I'm Buuddist. but I don't intrested in Buddism. So I understand that Buddhism influences our life .

I'm really impressed that you knew that much about New Years! A lot of people I know don't know why the bell is rung 108 times
Yeah,we don't think much what Buddhism is or what we do for the religion usually, but actually it's related to our life. We usually don't notice that because Buddhism is just our custom.
I agree with your opimion about Buddism. (☆≧Ｕ≦)/
