Are religion and economic activity superficially opposite, but essentially the same? Let's hear from some amazing people!

Hello. This is Watanabe Tenmei from the clear file. This time, we will be rewriting the medical school, so we will be talking about ``There is a Living Bible.'' In terms of religion, I would like to rewrite the question, ``Who is a famous monk or a first-class founder?''


There are people in this world who can be considered as bibles. Like the title of the article before the rewrite, is he a famous monk who has thought through his teachings, or a first-rate founder who has devised a formula for success based on his own philosophy? I'm interested in these wonderful people who know all the right answers.


These are people who overcame worries and difficulties to become important people under their own mission. What is the mission here? A mission is something that only you can do, and it can be said to be part of your destiny. If someone were to ask you, ``What is the one challenge that only you can accomplish?'' how would you respond?


I believe that the mission of a famous monk is to serve as a supporter who reaches out to people who live with worries and pain in this world and guides them in a better direction. Even if there were a heaven and hell, monks are professional guides, so they always need to reach out to those on the hell side, and that is their job and mission.


I don't know much about religion either, but when you think of a mission that God or Buddha has given only to you, it leads you to become an extraordinary superhuman, and it gives you more power than if you didn't believe in religion. I think we can make the most of it.


Best of all, it lets you know where you are. What role does my existence play in this universe or world? Religion can be said to play that role. I am by no means recommending any particular religion, but I feel it is my mission to write this blog.


I haven't decided yet whether to monetize this blog or not, but my current ambition is to continue writing this blog until I die, in my 30s. I can say that reading this blog and hearing people who say they have benefited from it is an asset to me. This blog is basically where I post my discoveries and research, but I hope you will continue to use it for many years to come.


When I think about the existence of God and Buddha, I think that the ideas of poverty and interestlessness, which are teachings that can be said to be common in various religions, are essential teachings in order to achieve greater success. As my policy states, if you want something, you will only get a small amount.


On the other hand, isn't business activity the exact opposite of a religion that praises interest-free living? When business owners run a business, sales are important, but profits are also important. Economic activity involves devising business strategies and winning competition in order to earn more profits. This is what economics calls utilitarianism.


There may not be that many managers in society as a whole, but if you count the number of companies, of course, there are many managers. There are two types of business owners: salaried business owners and founding business owners. A salaried manager is a person who started work at a company as a salaried worker and became a manager as he rose through the ranks.


On the other hand, founding managers are entrepreneurs who started their own businesses from scratch and have grown the company together. Even founders and truly outstanding managers often have their own policies and philosophies. For example, Omi merchant's Sampoyoshi is a good example. It means satisfying all stakeholders.


I think managers who started a business with ambition and then grew the company are amazing people. Economic activities may seem to be the exact opposite of religion, but their essence may be surprisingly similar.


For example, as I mentioned above about the interest-free nature of religion, it is necessary for a company to be profitable at least in its economic activities, but if it is managed by squeezing profits as much as possible, if it is a company that is originally profitable, it will sell cheap products with little profit. Many customers may buy the product if they ask for it. This is what is called low profit, high sales.


I think there are different views on whether higher or lower prices are better depending on the type of product. For example, if it's food, the cheaper the better, but if it's too cheap, you'll be worried about where you bought it from. On the other hand, cheap home appliances may have poor performance, so there are many people who request a certain price. I'm worried about the safety of the cheapest home appliances.


However, no matter what kind of product it is, if it is reasonably priced for the customer, it is not a bad idea to pick it up and look at it. In that sense, it seems that the interest-free nature of religion has a lot to do with the low-profit, high-profit nature of economic activities.


Furthermore, in religion, there is the idea of ​​being close to people on the side of hell, which is my personal opinion, but in the sense of making many people happy, there are many activities that change society and sell good products at low prices. You can also think of it as saving people.


There are many ways to practice religion, such as staying in the mountains, meditating, and asking for donations, but these are traditions that have been around for a long time, so I don't criticize them, but many people who work in society I don't think there is anything wrong with working for the sake of one's cause, even if it is part of religious training.


Now, in conclusion, religious teachings and corporate economic activities seem to be very different, but this is only superficial; if you dig deeper into the essential points, you will find that they have many things in common. I can see it. In the article before the rewrite, I said that (my result) divided by 1 could be anything.


In other words, no matter what the result is, if you average it by yourself, it will always be the average value. However, I don't need to compare myself to others, but rather than taking average values ​​in my own world, I think I should look more closely at the people in the society around me.


The article before this rewrite was written around September 2023, so by the current February 2024, it can be said that the way of thinking has changed significantly. I don't know if this is progress or regression, but I think I should have a little more confidence in my ability to write articles like this without comparing myself to others.


There's no need to compare your writing ability with others, but at least I'm neither better nor worse at writing than anyone else. At least it's not the lowest value for humanity. Even if you take it lightly, judging from my blogging history of about two years, I'm still not good enough to get a job, but maybe it's not that bad.


No one will criticize me if I say with confidence that I have writing skills. That's why this time I was rewriting the medical school. In the end, there are people who are amazing in both economic and religious activities. I recommend that you listen to their stories and pay attention to them with an ambition to see how you can get closer to them, or if you can quickly surpass them.


They may surprisingly tell you something that will turn your sense of values ​​upside down. that's all. See you soon.
