Dear friends,
namaskar.
I have read somewhere that in average buddhists live longer than others. Does any one has any information?

RE: Being Buddhist and living longer?
hi
not me, but it certainly sounds plausible. I expect they do not partake of cigarettes, binge drinking, late night clubbing, rich food and work-related stress, plus meditate for peace and possibly to enhance their internal energy. This combination of factors is what we are lead to believe a more healthier way of life. 🙂
Well, it's certainly something I'm striving to achieve.

Dear Login
It is far easier for anyone to live longer when they do not have to live in the realities of everyday life, Buddhist or not. Dr Usui was a Buddhist and a profound healer but he didn't make old bones. Anyone can be enlightened sitting on a mountaintop or in a temple, more difficult to maintain and sustain when one walks between the worlds of different realities. Living a normal life as a prayerful meditation is truly enlightening.

Dear darren,

centenarians have wide renge of life styles. nothing is common in them. only most predominant factor is gender. about 90% centenarians are women.

Dear sacredstar,
namaskar.
If one does not care for the realities then he/she will die instantly instead of living longer.
