How does Buddhism view the hot summer?

From the Buddhist point of view: heat, cold, pain, swelling and so on. , all belong to accumulation, all belong to one of the sufferings. Usually, we blame the feeling of heat on the objective factors of weather or environment, while Buddhism believes that it is basically the realization of self-knowledge, that is, the accidental realization of the seeds of one's karma. Because we are ignorant of many sentient beings, we will have the same view, which means that the summer heat is annoying. However, different kinds of beings have different feelings. Some sentient beings like high temperature environment and feel not hot, so there is no so-called "heat". Therefore, only knowledge says, "A fool cannot separate his roots from knowledge." The essence of empathy is self-knowledge, which is only a tool to realize knowledge.

Summary: Buddhism denies this "false self" and contains all empathy. But we will make decisions with our own views and fall into wrong thinking. That is to say, define the truth of this world with the cognition generated by the roots of one's eyes, ears, nose and tongue, and be satisfied with the roots. The theory of "no self" is to deny the authenticity of the eyes, ears, nose and tongue and become a slave to the six desires. There is a metaphor of "one water and four views" in Mahayana, which is also a bowl of water. When a ghost sees it, it says it's thick blood, when a person sees it, it says it's water, when a fish sees it, it says it's my home, and when a person sees it, it says it's a glazed treasure, which can be changed into various forms with his mind. So who is right? It's just that their karma is different and their realm is different. In fact, we are all playing the game of blind people touching elephants, and we have already played infinite robbery. So I decided not to play. I want to go home and go to Amitabha bliss.
