Long time ago, Buddhist
use stone inscription or obelisk, and version found in palm leaves, and then
papers and now on internet. They are all save and effective.
Of course, this is very
useful to use modern technology to share Buddha’s Dhamma which is not only for
Buddhist but also for any religion or any living being. For example of rain,
who can receive that rain will be useful for their health to be stronger and
who cannot take it and they cannot use for their lives confortable. This is
depends on themselves or in Pali attahi attano natho.
Now, in modern time,
most Buddhist people and Buddhist monks were using technology such as mobile
phone, tablet, computer etc. According to technology, that is very easy to find
Buddha’ tripitaka in any language what we want to search on Google, Yahoo, etc.
And also we can put on our own Facebooks and share to all people all over
around the world. This is never happened the way of using before to spread
Buddhist Dharma what is only appeared in modern time. So this is our good
chances to share our knowledge according to the Lord Buddha’s idea not to go
far way as Buddhist missionary.
It would be much
benefit to young people or effective to the cities or capital but not for the
countryside. See in the Buddha’s time, after raining season the Buddha’s disciple
went trip each monk one way to spread Buddhism but now monks are easily to
spread it by technology. As a modern time, Buddhist monks were using net,
giving dhamma talk on line such as Buddhist TV channel, FM Radio, or MCU TV
etc. Which are useful and communicate back and forth or over and over to all
others Religions.
In short, as the Buddha
mention that whatever we act, speak and thought that must be the middle way.
Anyway, we should prevent and share Buddhism to all. Therefore, it is a good
and effective idea to use modern technology to spread the Buddhist Dharma.
