People don't believe in Buddhism, but they must have a Buddhist heart
Buddha heart could be understood as compassion, enlightenment, and purity. Even if a person did not believe in Buddhism, having a Buddhist heart meant that he had compassion in his life, sympathized with the sufferings of others and tried his best to help them. He maintained his awareness, was not completely blinded by worldly troubles and desires, could see through the essence of things, and had a certain wisdom and rationality. He maintained his purity, and his heart was not filled with excessive negative emotions such as distracting thoughts, greed, and hatred. In interpersonal communication, with such a Buddhist heart as the criterion, one could treat others with a more positive, healthy, tolerant and kind attitude, which was helpful in building harmonious interpersonal relationships and improving one's own moral cultivation.

People who believe in Buddhism go crazy
People who believed in Buddhism might go berserk for many reasons. From a psychological and behavior perspective, some people were originally stubborn, one-sided, or overly persistent. They were not in a normal mental state, and there might be deviation in the process of believing in Buddhism. This could be seen as a kind of "Qi deviation" under evil fate. There were also some people who were originally educated in the doctrine of Materialism and Scientism. When they suddenly came into contact with the content of the Buddhist scriptures that advised people to be good, pure, and wise, they were ecstatic. When they were too engrossed in praying to the Buddha and chanting the scriptures, such as being too eager to meditate and recite the Buddha, they did not eat or sleep. They moved their legs to meditate and caused physical damage. Just like the strings of the zither were too tight and easily broken, they were too engrossed and deviated from the normal state of cultivation. In terms of specific Buddhist behavior, excessive vegetarian diet, such as not even touching eggs and milk, may lead to long-term malnutrition. When the body is old, it cannot withstand it, such as severe malnutrition and weak muscle strength. In the aspect of burning incense to Buddha, if one did not pay attention to the ventilation of the room where the incense burner was located, inhaled the volatile matter of burning incense for a long time, and burned too much incense at one time for too long, it might damage one's health due to the accumulation of smoke and dust and the inhalation of harmful substances, such as causing pneumoniosis. When performing a more intense method of worshipping Buddha like the Big Prayer, it might be dangerous for people who were old or had underlying diseases, such as causing cerebral hemorrhage. In addition, frequent and excessive donations to temples were also unreasonable. The family members of some Buddhists would also be troubled by the excessive behavior of the Buddhists. For example, the normal diet of the family members would be disrupted, and their lives would be disturbed by excessive religious behavior. These could be regarded as the extreme state of Buddhism, similar to the state of Qi deviation.
Can I believe in Buddhism?
From the perspective of traditional China culture, Buddhism and Taoism were both part of Chinese culture and could be learned together. In reality, there were also cases of dual cultivation of Buddhism and Taoism. For example, Mount Heng in the south was a holy land for both Buddhism and Taoism. Taoist priests ascended here, and eminent monks established sects here. There was also an old man in Henan who believed in Buddhism since he was young because his family had been worshipping Buddhism for generations. Since he was 18 years old, he had been learning Taoist health preservation techniques and exploring the true essence of Buddhism and Zen. However, different Taoist schools had different views on the dual cultivation of Buddhism and Taoism. Quan Zhen Sect might approve of it, while Zhengyi Sect might not. However, most people in Taoist schools in reality supported the dual cultivation of Buddhism and Taoism. Therefore, one could also believe in the Dao while believing in Buddhism.

People who believe in Buddhism are vegetarian for three days during the New Year
In Han Buddhism, there was a particular rule of eating vegetarian on the tenth day of the third month of the year. The third day of the year referred to the first to fifteenth days of the first, fifth, and ninth months of the year. However, there was no specific requirement that Buddhists had to be vegetarian for three days during the New Year (the first to third day of the first lunar month). Therefore, whether Buddhists were vegetarian for three days during the New Year depended more on their level of faith practice, family environment, understanding of Buddhism, and many other factors. Some devout believers might follow the requirements of the third day of the first month to the fifteenth day of the first month, which included the vegetarian diet during the New Year. However, some believers might not follow such a diet restriction due to social reasons such as family reunion or other personal reasons.

A god that both Buddhism and Taoism believe in
Heavenly Venerable Dou Mu was a god worshipped by both Buddhism and Taoism. In Taoism, Lady Doumu was the mother of the stars of the Big Dipper.

She assisted the Jade Emperor in managing the stars and was also the chief leader of the Taisui stars. She was in charge of thirty-six heavenly stars and seventy-two earthly evil stars. She was in charge of all twenty-eight constellations. She could eliminate disasters and save her life. In Buddhism, they were revered as Morijipan Bodhisattva and Great Morijipan Bodhisattva.

Can you believe in Taoism and Buddhism?
In China, Taoism and Buddhism were two different religious belief systems. From the perspective of religious doctrines and traditional concepts, it was not strictly forbidden for a person to have a tendency to believe in Taoism and Buddhism at the same time. Taoism was a local religion in China. It had its own unique doctrine, system of gods, cultivation methods, and philosophical thoughts. It emphasized the concept of adapting to nature, pursuing longevity, and achieving unity with the Tao through cultivation. Buddhism, on the other hand, was a rich system formed by foreign religions after their development in China. It took compassion, liberation, and enlightenment as its core doctrines, and through cultivation, it achieved the goal of freeing itself from the cycle of life and death. However, in actual religious practice and the views of religious groups, there may be some different views. Moreover, when one deeply believed in a religion, one had to follow the teachings and regulations of the relevant religious sites and religious figures. In modern society, religious matters also needed to be handled according to laws and regulations. It was a more common and recognized phenomenon to appreciate and absorb the wisdom of the two from a cultural perspective. The novel "Taoist Qianshan" is equally exciting.

Zen Heart and Buddhism
The concept of 'Zen Heart and Buddhism' was a concept that contained rich Buddhist cultural implications. From the perspective of Buddhist cultivation, Zen represented a state of inner peace, emptiness, and enlightenment. In cultivation, people reached the state of Zen by getting rid of delusions and obsession. For example, all sentient beings have the wisdom and virtue of the Tathagata, but they can't achieve it because of their delusions and persistence. If they let go of these persistence, the Buddha nature will naturally appear. This is a manifestation of the pursuit of Zen. In the cultivation system of Buddhism, there were many elements related to it. All kinds of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats were important components of Buddhism. They represented different cultivation realms, virtues, or powers. They had symbolic significance in guiding cultivators to enlightenment and reach the realm of Zen. For example, Guan Yin Bodhisattva's thousand-handed and thousand-eyed compassion embodied the Bodhisattva's compassion to save all living beings. This was also a spiritual realm pursued by Buddhist cultivators. Buddhist cultivators used various methods to comprehend and practice the "Zen Buddhism". For example, chanting Amitabha, one should not be obsessed with external Buddhas, but should guide oneself to return to one's own nature through this method and realize that one has the Buddha-nature. In addition, Zen Buddhism was also reflected in some specific codes of conduct and outlook on life, such as retreating to advance, inaction, emptiness for pleasure, and the masses for themselves. It was also reflected in the cultivation of moral character such as being kind, being relaxed, tolerant, being kind, saying good words, and doing good deeds.

Idioms related to Buddhism, heart to heart
" Heart to Heart " came from Buddhism. It originated from the mantra of Zen Master Duanji on Mount Huangtiao, which said," Since Kasyapa has come, one's heart should respond to one's heart, and one's heart and heart should be the same." It talked about the tacit understanding of the mind when Tathagata imparted the Dharma to Kasyapa. Kasyapa could quickly understand the Dharma of Buddha without disagreement. In Buddhism,"mutual understanding of the heart" meant that one did not rely on words, but used one's heart to verify Buddhist principles. Pei Xiu of the Tang Dynasty also mentioned in the "Tang Guifeng Zen Master Dinghui's Biography Stele" that "but the heart and mind are connected, and the seal is connected, so that self-actualization knows the light and benefits", that is, through spiritual verification and cultivation, one can realize the Buddha's heart of all living beings to self-actualize Buddhism. With the development of Buddhism, the word gradually had a new meaning. Now it represented tacit understanding and mutual understanding. It was also often used between couples to express their beautiful love wishes or as a wedding blessing. "Let go and become a Buddha, draw your saber!" The novel is equally exciting.

Buddhist Heart Demon
Mental demons were originally a Buddhist term used to describe troubles and obstacles. In the process of learning Buddhism, inner demons were obstacles that needed to be overcome. For example, stubbornness and obsession that might occur during cultivation belonged to the category of inner demons. There were also excessive joy in the teachings of Buddhist scriptures, such as excessive meditation and chanting of Buddha, which were also manifestations of inner demons. In daily cultivation, greed, anger, stupidity, slowness, and doubt were also inner demons. They would diminish the path of cultivation. If inner demons appeared, the path of cultivation would be damaged, and the path of cultivation could eliminate inner demons. A true cultivator must maintain a pure heart and free himself from the emotions of hatred, jealousy, likes and dislikes of others. He must avoid doing irrational actions and creating bad karma because of these inner demons.
