Question 1. After realizing something while listening to the monk's lectures, I am curious whether simply applying what I learned to my daily life is sufficient, or if I should also live a life of service.
Question 2. When visiting a temple, is performing three bows sufficient, or should I observe other rituals?
Question 3. It is said that to meet good people, one must become a good person oneself; what exactly constitutes a good person?
Question 4. It is difficult to change the world through individual change alone; how should we begin to fundamentally create a more peaceful and just world?
Question 5. Since coming to the U.S., I have been told that attending church is mandatory; is it really necessary to have a religion?
Question 6. What constitutes good leadership? Is it something acquired later in life?
Question 7. I recently started attending a church. The people are so kind that I want to repay them, but I can't seem to find faith.
Question 8. I want to change the world for the better through my research.
Question 9. How can I regain my passion and sense of challenge after becoming complacent?
Question 10. I used to think that living diligently was about pursuing some kind of greed. I would like to ask what values I should uphold when striving in life.
Question 11. I am a student and a mother. I miss my 2-year-old baby so much.
