Four Noble States
Samantabhadra Happiness and Prayer.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.
The first episode ( 12-03-01 )
Please open the sutra [1] , first page, Cat Tuong Van Bhikshuni.
Before preaching to scriptures, great teacher Thanh Luong had some very important explanations. Let us read this passage once.
(Coming soon) Great writer II: "Nhi time, Thien Tai and fellow shopkeeper" down.
( Sparse ) large text Di II. Seoul when the goodfiscal boy child gradually times south linedown.
( Coming : The second largest paragraph in the text, from the phrase "at that time, Thien Tai pupil gradually descends in the order of going south").
The word "lower" here refers to the next text [that sentence], only for the text [in this chapter].
(Good) Crossing friendship, sign the Ten Pillars.
( Sparse ) has ten good friends, send ten livebits.
( Coming : There are ten good friends who belong to the position of the Cross Headquarters).
Here, there are ten people, that is, ten Bodhisattvas [of fifty-three good knowledge]. Although they say that they are monks, but in fact, they are all Bodhisattvas, ie Dharma Bodies. These ten "sign the Decade" , the Signature ( 寄) here is "deposit" (send). If we use the example to say, they are like performing on stage, they play the role of the Cross. It is very difficult to say [exactly] what their land is, there are those who are ancient Buddhists; Here, we completely look at the appearance of their face, ie [looking at] the appearance they have shown;will be like in the Sutra Sutra said: "The charm of love". Here's an explanation for us to know what the Cross is?
(Jesus) The importer entered the Precepts, the pillar of No precepts, attained the Unpredictable, deliberately enlightened.
( Shu ) that the beginning into the empty circles, Hui live air resistance, to give place not retreat, so that the name is live.
(It is : It means that just entering the world, the place of wisdom in emptiness, attaining the Immortal, should be called the Head).
First of all, [great master Thanh Luong] taught us the meaning of the word "Head in the Cross". In China, almost every sect has acknowledged that Hoa Nghiem is Mahayana Teacher, and also calls this sutra "the basis of the Dharma" , [the implication] of all the sutras which are all belongings of Hoa Nghiem. . Like a tree, Hua Nghiem is the root, the root; all other sutras are branches of that tree, which are saved from this sutra. Because of this, it is possible to know the important nature of Hoa Nghiem. Here, Master Thanh Luong tells us the meaning of the Head: "Only enter the World" , It is the beginning, "No gender" Not ten worlds. Ten dharma precepts are not No, continental is not No, ten dharmas are not. In other words, they have just started to leave the ten dharmas, "No World" is the Most Precious Truth.
"Non-emptiness" : Bodhisattva attains this position, wisdom opens, this is true wisdom. True wisdom, Prajna wisdom in self-nature, like the Vajrayana Sutra has taught: "The mind is pure and pure. It is true that General Bat Nha shows money, surpassing the ten dharmas, that is the "No-Tanh pillar" . Entering that world will permanently not withdraw, no longer retreating to the ten precepts, unless he is present. [That vision] is called "price reversal from the row" (release of the Magnetic raft), or "redeeming the future" , those are so many. If it is not because he himself re-vows again, he will absolutely not be due to karma to pull him back; There is no morality! So called "Abstinence" . This term of the Three Immortals in Mahayana and Hinayana is all there, but the realm in it is very different or shallow. Here is the ultimate realm, so it is called Head. The following paragraphs record:
(Say) Head of the multi-species, the tenor of the theory.
( Sparse ) live righteous multi- species, sent roundto say ten.
( Say : The meaning of the Head has many things, because it means "fullness" so it is said to be "Cross").
The meaning of the Great word is very much, the Buddha wants to say it, it cannot be said. Therefore, for us, people with very shallow qualifications, deep karma, only the method of introducing the most simple and crucial points! Inductive with lots of meaning, inductive into ten things, because the Cross also means fullness. The number from one to ten is the number of consummation, so in Hoa Nghiem, everywhere, using the Cross to symbolize the fullness, but the Cross is not completely the number. This is something we need to understand clearly.Due to the meaning of "fullness", say ten things. Each of the articles speaks ten things, in the scriptures of Huayen, using the Cross to express the dharma.
( Coming) Of Bodhicitta, the mind, the mind, the mind, the mind, the mind, the mind and the world
( Sparse ) to Bodhisattva mention heart and to hisbody. Straight heart partial increase, the name of theempty circles.
( Coming: Taking Bodhicitta as a Body, focusing on Direct Growth, called "entering the World").
This is an explanation for the phrase "enter the world without the precepts". Because of this, we know the importance of bodhicitta.Bodhicitta is A Nau Da La Tam Tam Tam Tam Tam Tam, in the previous chapter I have thoroughly introduced to everyone, I must definitely give Bodhicitta! In Bodhicitta, it often refers to "The Body - Uses", divided into three faculties. Bodhisattva's body is Direct, Bodhisattva Code has said this in the Initiation of Belief. If based on Quan Kinh, ie the Buddha's Immeasurable Life, to say, the Buddha taught us: The bodhicitta is Chi Thanh Tam, which is sincere to the extreme. If we combine these two preaching ways to understand, we will easily understand the meaning of [Bodhicitta]. What is Mindfulness? Sincere to the extreme, there is no chance. We all feel that it is not easy to meet, generally because [self-assuming] our own mind is very sincere, I have been sincere to the extreme. Really,
Where is the standard? First of all, we do not talk about Buddha Dharma, but please comment according to the previous world law! It is said that the first-time monk born in the Tang Dynasty lived not far from us, he was a person who lived in the late Qing Dynasty. His descendants in Taiwan are also quite good; Sang Bao Sam is his next generation, which is a descendant. The National Assembly defines the word as follows: "A concept that does not give birth to a Citadel" , this explanation is very suitable to the Dharma. Because this is known: "When you start mindfulness, your mind is not sincere!" Six bases exposed the six ceiling realm, we often say: "No distinction, no attachment, no initiation, no commemoration , that mind will be a true heart. " It is the essence of Bodhicitta, which must be practiced in daily life. Practice so as not to start your mind, not to meditate, not to discriminate, without attachment, then it will be time to use your mind.If there is discrimination, attachment, initiation, mindfulness, you are using your mind. That mindfulness is the mindfulness, according to the Dharma General Duy Thuc, will be "you are using fifty one Mind of Eight Consciousness". Fifty-one mind facility of eight consciousness is compounded vi, Kim Cang teaches: "It is necessary to possess the dharma, as the dream of the illusory image" (All compounded things, such as dreams, illusions, bubbles, shadows), these things are not true.Therefore, since the Priest of Bodhisattva immediately used the heart of the mind, so there was the same mind with Buddha, the Buddha used his heart and feet, at that time, the Bodhisattva also used the mind.
"Mindfulness of the mind increases" : Bodhicitta begins to act, ie, the mind and body arises. It has two effects: One is Self-Life, the other is Tha Shou.
1) Tu Tho Dung is the concept of mindfulness towards the Upper Bodhi, there is no second idea; that is to say to yourself. In the Mahayana Sutra, there is often a saying about this "recitation of the word" as follows: "The Beauty of the Lady of the Sea" (Entering the Sea of Most Precious). Among you, there are also those who often read the sutras and have seen this sentence. Face Slapping (Sarvaj ña) is Sanskrit, translated into Chinese meaning is necessarily Political.Necessity of Politics has the same meaning with A Nau Da La Tam Mieu Tam Bo. Because this may know: From now on, for himself, he does not have any other concept besides the desire to fully satisfy the fruit of Buddha, he only has one idea. It can be said that for all the worldly dignitaries or the world, he has all fallen down, no distinction, no attachment, he has no delusion, let go. This is called "true heart".
2) Tho Tho is great compassion. The great compassion is the rediscovered prayer, in the ten precepts. What kind of help they need, they can help, like thirty-two candidates of the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara. If they are sympathetic, He immediately arrives, touches the path! Should use the Buddha's body to attain it, he immediately embodies Buddha to give you a sermon. Should use Bodhisattva body to be able to do it, He will embody the Bodhisattva to teach you. He embodied immeasurable immeasurable, thirty-two proverbs said in the Prussian Gate is thirty-two types, ie thirty-two great types, each of which has infinite immeasurable [types]. This is great compassion, in the Quan Kinh called [compassionate mind] as "radial prayer". He really does that, here called "rising mindfulness." Because, the Head of Bodhisattva just entered the world, focused more on self-sufficiency, not that he did not turn others, just natural self-confidence. So called the Head, enter the Zero world like that!
(Good) The language of the generals.
( Sparse ) language that phase too.
( Say : Talk to the general) .
Looking from the general, looking from the shape.
(Good) Data of law, nowhere in the world .
( Sparse ) and in France sector dummy emptycircles and the like.
( Birth: Horizontal by the dharma realm, nothingness).
Because the mind does not discriminate, does not accept, so the mind is as big as nothingness. The mind was like that, the general was the same. So take the nowhere, the whole world, can depend on the type of embodiment, it is an inconceivable realm. Therefore, the subject of this sutta, we always shorten the subject of this sutra, but if we say it fully, it will be the Great Way of the Buddha and the Strictly Entering the Disclaimer of Liberation.. This is a complete headline, complete headings. The title is too long so we shorten it. Therefore, [the realms mentioned in this sutra] are inconceivable realms. Honestly, where do we learn Buddha to start learning from? A lot of steps to get started, but the following step is also important, ie, expanding your mind. How to expand your mind? For everyone, all, all things, keep in mind: "Don't discriminate, don't accept, don't start your mind, don't think", your mind will naturally expand . Whenever there is a distinction, attachment, the mind will be very small, turning into ordinary qualities.This is very urgent.
The ( Cross ) The Cross disagrees, ie the cross-section .
( Sparse ) ten live is not the same, that is tensegments.
( Coming : Because of the ten different positions of the Cross, it should be divided into ten sections).
The text is divided into ten passages. Here, we call it "ten chapters".Currently, we consider each chapter as a unit, printed into booklets. The Cross begins from this book onwards, and there are nine more books about the Bodhisattva.
(Coming) Of course, you have to say that you are the most charismatic, the most clever.
( Sparse ) However, under various friends , oldGerman sentence text from Yi Zhi ten. This slightlySyria Yi II.
( Say: But for good friends [copied in turn] in the following sections, ancient judgments of scriptures range from one way to ten ways, which now represent only a few ways.
This is about the division of science and the teaching [while commenting on the Chinese scriptures]. For us to say, [this] is not very important. For learners of the sutra, it is imperative to consult, but it is not important for us to say, [different divisions]. The paragraph above introduces how to segment. Here it comes to a great passage (ie the entire Cat Tuong Van Bhikkhu Chapter), not a sub-section. In the previous page [this chapter], we have a chart that shows how to divide each segment, very carefully divided, called the Faculty. For this sutra, each person has a different way of judging, each has a different way of delineation, such as:
(Live) Advocacy
( Sparse ) Debate known points three.
( MLS : Ching Measures divided into three segments)
He divided the text into three passages. The first paragraph:
(Good) The name of the bridge.
( Sparse ) heard the name of seeking to find.
( Coming : Listen to the title of good knowledge, search)
This part belongs to ...
(Good) Family Happiness. Second life period of theory, the Chief Justice.
( Sparse ) plus line . Two by its being said that ispositive evidence bits.
(It is : Gia Hanh Loc . The second paragraph is to receive the teaching of the good knowledge of that, belongs to the Taste).
The third paragraph [mentioned] in the following page:
(Good) Threshold stop winning, Post Dac Vi.
( Sparse ) Yang pushed wins forward, is back toobit.
( Say: Admiration, upholding the next good knowledge that transcends ourselves, that is Dac Vi)
This is the segment of the master Thanh Bien. But there is also the ancient virtue divided into five parts, ie divided into five sections. How to divide the five paragraphs as follows:
(New) Most elected to promote tu, second medicine animal enter, the three comments, sometimes the glass, the four Chief Justice of France, five thresholds only won tons. High-definition duality.
( Sparse ) a lift method to persuade repair.Second, according to the teaching interest . Threesee already , please respect. Tetra-n- shown methodboundaries. Five Yang pushes the victory . Then on the second meaning.
( Say: One is to give the dharma to counsel; the other is to obey the teaching to go to the place, to enter that dharma; the third is to meet the good knowledge, then sometimes, pay respect; weak in the legal world, the year of respect, respect for the good of other knowledge is more than we let the listeners to cultivate, but the above two meanings ...)
Two medium segments are mentioned above.
(Coming soon) Pure prejudice.
( Sparse ) and approximately bit to say.
( Coming soon : It is a place to say)
It is the wish that according to the status of Bodhisattva attain [to judge], like the Stupid, the Second Head, the Tam Tru, it is based here to say.
(Good) Uu means good.
( Sparse ) to justice is very good.
( Number : In terms of great significance)
In this paragraph, the meaning is very good, the division is quite good; but the texts according to texts are not convenient. Because, during the time of Sakyamuni Buddha's sermon, he did not tell others to segment. Segment is the story of the next. During the time of the Buddha preaching sutras, he did not use that method. Therefore, for this part of the text, if we preach a chapter of this Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong, in order to introduce him as a person, he must speak through the previous chapter, which is the chapter on the Ten Commandments of Duc Van Thu. We preached alone this chapter, it was not very convenient, had to preach over the previous section. This is obvious.
(Coming) At inconvenience. Because of the title of friendship, although it belongs to the post-war and pre-association theory.
( Sparse ) in the text without it. To the Friends of the name of justice , although the genus , the formerwould say so .
( Say : But it is not convenient for [explanation] of the scriptures. Because the name of the next good friend is part of the following but is mentioned in the first [2] Assembly ).
Like Mr. Cat Tuong Van mentioned here, Mr. Cat Tuong Van was introduced in the previous section, introduced in the assembly of Manjushri Bodhisattva, not from here onwards to be introduced.
(Born) Kim y Yay, visited Ngu Dai Luan, wished the faculty of chi, divided the division.
( Sparse ) today according to Italian public, andWu Tai theory, about 'll Branch of. Points to sixpoints.
( Number : Now, according to the Italian public and Wutai Luan, estimated according to the faculty association, divided into six parts)
Here Master Thanh Luong brings the scriptures divided into six sections, from here on, each time attending the school in fifty-three times of attendance are divided into six such large passages. These six passages were divided by Him, but also because the previous people had this idea, so He did not include merit; Here He brought the idea of ancient virtue to tell it all. Therefore, he divided the text into six passages.
(Good) Strange little lady .
( Sparse ) and the name is small .
( Coming : But the name is slightly different)
The name of each department is slightly different from the way of the previous generation.
(Born) Most, animal medicine.
( Sparse ) a according to the teaching interestrequirements.
( Say: One is to obey the teaching to advance, pray)
Yes, according to the instructions and instructions of the good knowledge in the previous section: "You go there, ask that person." That passage of passage is the first paragraph, obeying the words of good knowledge in the previous section. Here, we see the knowledge of goodness in the previous part is the Bodhisattva Manjushri. Manjushri Bodhisattva taught Good Fortune to ask Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van, "medicine animal bridge" [is like that].
(Coming) Nhị, the four-eyed ants.
( Sparse ) two see King consultative asked.
( No: Second meeting, expressed feast, said permission was asked)
Meeting the good and good face, of course, must be respectful The ceremony could not be removed, must be directed to the petitioner. This is another paragraph.
(Coming) Tam, proclaiming, taking life.
( Sparse ) three said Chan granted law.
( Coming: Three is praise, teaching the dharma).
Good knowledge that Thien Tai came to attend, definitely praised Thien Tai, then taught, brought the dharma learned by himself to teach Thien Tai. Such texts belong to the third paragraph.
(Coming) Tu, humble victory.
( Sparse ) four Qian has pushed wins.
( Number Four is himself humble, promoting others)
The Dharma of Buddha is boundless. You see that each one of his good knowledge is very humble: "In the multitude of disciplines, I only know this one method, not as other good intellectuals, they know much, are higher than me. ! ”Humbly humbled, praise others. "C'mon" ( 推) is a highlight, [ "stop winning" is] promoting others better than me, others are better than me. There is no one who says that we are great, others are inferior! No! To find such a position in fifty-three times to find and to study, no one is humble. For this place we must pay attention, must pay attention to understanding; If you meet a good intellectual who recognizes [himself] very beautifully: "Other people lose to me, I am good at true knowledge!" Certainly he is false, certainly not good knowledge really. Why? Do not correspond to the dharma!
(Coming) Ngu, directive.
( Sparse ) five means shown after friends.
( Coming: The year is to show the next good knowledge)
Certainly introduce a good knowledge to Thien Tai, "he went there to study", introduced to that place. The last paragraph:
(Born) Luyen Duc, feast from
( Sparse ) Love German ceremony speech.
( Coming : Luyến tomb of virtue, worship, from weight).
This text is very short, very profound. "Luyến Đức" is an appreciation, appreciation for the teaching of good knowledge and achievements of Dinh - Hue for yourself, that is "attachment to virtue".What does "word ceremony" mean? It doesn't mean "I ask to leave Him, I go there and ask." When you understand that, you are foolish, you study foolish Buddha! You didn't learn anything! The true meaning of the "ceremony" is as follows: "Feast" is a respect of worship; "From" what? I didn't study this practice! I know this method, I understand it, but I still honestly recite Buddha's name! From beginning to end Thien Tai was honestly reciting Buddha's name, a Buddha Amitabha thought to the utmost. However, every method he understands, every method is in contact, every method is asked, everything is understood, but still like a silence! So far, I have not changed my mind, I want to learn this, I want to learn that, I don't have it! "Luyến Đức ceremony from" means that, has this meaning!
If you don't go and ask, you have a little understanding, your wisdom is not full, your concentration is not visible. After you come into contact, you will know as if you are immovable, clear and new, and will be able to display Dinh - Hue with your own honesty. I still honestly recite Buddha's name, until I come to the final good knowledge of Bodhisattva Samantabhadra, ten great vows to lead to the Bliss. Therefore, Thien Tai pupil became a Buddha in a lifetime, how to become Buddha? Recite Amitabha Buddha and become Buddha! So what does fifty-three attendance mean? Fifty-three times to attend classes to teach you about daily activities before being reborn. Therefore, we collectively call these "modern living art". You are not reborn, you are still in this world, you still have this body, you still have to wear clothes, eat rice, you still have to deal with all, every day six scenes of contact The six-ceilinged world, that's fifty-three times attendance. Although contact, worldly dharma, worldly dharma, any dharma can be contacted, but in the mind there is a mastery (ie, the mind is always intentional), in the mind like silence, the realm of the outside world turn to quibble, an Amitabha Buddha concept comes to the end. This is called "fellow Thien Thien".
You understand this morality in order to truly attain the United States. It is not to tell you to come here to hear this preacher preach, tomorrow to the other Zen master, the day after I go to listen to that monk. When you go to places where you learn to scratch, you are not a fellow student. Therefore, this sutra is very intentional, it teaches us how to live, how to teach us how to be, how to be in this life, in this complex society that is worldly Dinh's achievements - Hue's great greatness! Next part….
(Born) Children textbook multi tools .
( Sparse ) and all text multiple tools.
( Coming: But in the texts, most have all [six faculties])
“Chu The text " here is the text of fifty-three times of attendance, that is fifty-three chapters, the vast majority have all of these six faculties, that is, all six passages.
(Good) The General Department.
( Sparse ) so the overall division of.
( It is said : So, let's put together the departments) .
This place specifically introduces [those six faculties].
(Laughter) The minor increase and decrease, the literary argument.
( Shu ) small there by subtraction, to the text when the resolution.
( Say : If there is a slight difference, it will be clear to the text.)
Sometimes there may be more than one thing or more than one paragraph, which may be less than one paragraph, but the case is very rare. The vast majority of texts are full of these six great passages.Therefore, if there is a special case like that, then it will be explained again.
(Coming) Right- wing multi-segment, medium-sized difference meaning multi-instrumental, trying to be invisible.
( Sparse ) more there are more than points. But sixin another sense and more than not having, it is notobvious it.
( It is said : there are more people divided, but the separate meanings of the above six sections do not have enough, so do not mention).
There are also other mages who divide this passage into many small passages; But to be honest, it was absolutely unnecessary. This way of dividing into six sections is very clear and easy to understand. Therefore, great teacher Thanh Luong introduced here before lecturing the sutras.We understand that each paragraph, [every narrative text] once Thien Tai comes to the interview, has these six passages, showing that He is very tidy, very in order and clear, no disorder, edema in accordance with the moral spirit. Precepts are rules, this segment is regulated, in the right order.
In the previous section, after the Manjushri Bodhisattva introduced Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van with Thien Tai pupil, instructed Thien Tai to go there to study. At the end of that passage, Master Ching Liang raised a question to solve doubt. That passage is also very important. He set up a question and answer: Manjushri Bodhisattva is the most noble position in the Bodhisattva line, let alone the Manjushri as "lost Buddha chi", ie the teacher of the seven Buddhas. Among His students, there were seven people who became Buddhas, how could his wisdom be problematic! Why did he not teach his fellow students to be good at assimilating fellow students? Going to another place to study, enduring such hardship for what? It is better to teach myself! Thien Tai is really capable, ready to receive; Why does Manjushri Bodhisattva teach him not, and ask to go on a tour? Do you have such a question? You see teaching in worldly and worldly teachings, telling us that when you first learn, you must study according to the teachings of one person, penetrating a subject! Thien Tai attends the conference of the Manjushri, which is [studying according to] a teacher's teachings, receiving the teachings of a teacher, attaining the basic principles of Tri [3].! If you say so, if you want to be a Buddha or a Patriarch yourself, you can really do it. However, if you want to turn all beings, must follow this lesson taught, after "entering the Head" (witnesses in the Ten Pillars), the active space must be taken to nothing, the whole world, rather than just this one place. Because of that, learning more and more listening is inevitable; so tell you to visit places.
Therefore, Master Thanh Luong answered this question to us. There are ten meanings in the answer:
1. First meaning: Indicate the general (general status):
In order to set an example for the posterity. Indeed, Manjushri Bodhisattva has the ability to teach Thien Tai, why tell him to go to school? In order to model, model, perform for the post-study see: Students ask to learn not lazy, brave, diligent, not tired, bored. Perform a trick for the next person to watch! Therefore, you must find a teacher to ask for guidance. Commenting on the teacher, for the true student who came to study, he certainly did not regret it. I myself know how much, I really slipped all my bags out. Therefore, [Bao Thien Tai goes to study] is an example for those who are students, but also an example for those who are good at knowledge or who are teachers. That is the first meaning of telling Thien Tai to go to school and use this idea!
2. The second meaning is to show the happiness of the enemy and win:
"Hanh" is spiritual practice. Good knowledge of righteous practice and practice, true revenge, which also means that they are truly pure.During the time of World Religion, in the Sangha, there was a group of Luc Bhikkhu [4] who were thick, disruptive, disobedient. The Buddha told them to turn to the East, they turned to the West; tell them to do good, they do evil. Throughout the day from morning to night, doing cross-talk, like "creating counter" in the Sangha. In fact, these people are Buddhas or Bodhisattvas who appear, they are really pure; even the lay people are performers, this is true. We don't know it!
For example, Quan Am Tho Quan Quan Buddha, everyone reads it.A Xa The King killed his father and harmed his mother, both Buddhas and Bodhisattvas performed, performed for us, performed! Doing evil deeds, Five Adversaries, Ten Evil are all draining. Later, the king met Ky Ba; Ky Ba is the great assistant of the king. States Ba to counsel: "From the ancient to the present, heard that the king for the throne that killed his father, but did not hear no king bad mother!" He said: "If Pharaoh harm the mother, Pharaoh being a great leader, we don't follow your majesty! ” Therefore, King A Xa The followed his advice; after that, Ky Ba led the king to meet Sakyamuni Buddha, repent, correct the error. Later, King studied Buddha, all performances are done! Each person is honest and reflective. We must understand this, but they are not really evil. The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas adaptation in this world, how can we know our eyes and eyes? They did not tell you: "I am the Bodhisattva who improvised". It is impossible to tell you! Those who say it are fake, not true! If it is true, absolutely not telling others.Previously there was also a taste when the body was revealed, so immediately, he could not remain in this world anymore! The identity revealed but still does not exist, still rely on it, it is definitely a fake, there is no morality!
"Take refuge in the Noble Noble Truth " (Hide the real identity to turn the King of Dieu Trang Nghiem), this is a story in the Dharma Flower, which is a story in the story of Dieu Trang Nghiem Deity, which is also a story. Buddha and Bodhisattva appear. Do not see what they do is evil, they pretend, aiming for us to watch. Do you see people doing evil, later in the beginning, looking forward to it, it is a teaching idea, very profound, what teaches us? We are ordinary people, not the future Buddha and Bodhisattva. The Buddha and the Bodhisattva manifest as such, we do evil, even though doing evil is still saved. You see they do evil, they finally learn Buddha is still saved, so we are also saved. Point out a bright path for evildoers! Don't do evil, don't be afraid! As long as you can turn your head, turn your head to shore!
Especially the Pure Land method, you have to do evil in your whole life, to finally meet the good friend who advises you, recite Buddha's name ten times to decide to be reborn. What else do you have to say? In the past, when I first learned the Buddha, there were people talking about the fullness of wisdom, the great divine power of the Buddha, and we posed a hypothetical question: "If that person does not do evil, immediately must fall into hell A Bhikkhu, is the Buddha capable of making him immediately into a Buddha? If the Buddha does not have that power, [then say] 'the great Buddha of all things' is fake, that is praise, it is not true! "Now we understand that it is true, the Buddha is really have that capacity, the problem is whether the opponent will accept it or not? The opponent does not receive, even though he has the capacity, the Buddha has no way. The problem is that you must receive it. Currently, we read Amitabha Sutra understands well, lifelong doing evil deeds, the death is advised by good friends, immediately received, due to an instant Buddha's name being reborn, knowing wisdom, the virtue of Buddha is truly fullness. Therefore, this is also to warn us: For those who do evil in the world, do not despise them, do not disregard them! There are also many people at death who meet a good friend and go to the West to become a Buddha, and we still continue to reincarnate in six roads, far from them! Do not disregard them! There are also many people at death who meet a good friend and go to the West to become a Buddha, and we still continue to reincarnate in six roads, far from them!Do not disregard them! There are also many people at death who meet a good friend and go to the West to become a Buddha, and we still continue to reincarnate in six roads, far from them!
Therefore, in the sutras, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas perform this technique in order for the evildoers to see, not to teach you to do evil, and the forest to turn. If you understand that, it won't be reborn! That you have completely prayed for, wrong! You must understand this meaning.
3. The third thing is to break down first:
For teachers, do not accept attachments too much, do not rely too much. Ỷ to a teacher, over reliance, that means you have made a distinction, have attachments, are wrong! So what do you teach you? We must be humble, we must be empty. To the places of study, everyone is a good friend, everyone can achieve Hue for you. Break the distinction, break it first! Bring your teacher respect to treat everyone. Therefore, this idea is very nice.
4. The fourth thing, except arrogance:
If you are in the middle of all the masses, there are men, women, old, young, gentle, stupid people, all of whom are very wise, and also very foolish. You don't see people being foolish. Very stupid people also have advantages, there are also places where you can't be. Break apart stereotypes arrogance of you, using a pure mind, equanimity, the mind is not ashamed to ask [those inferior himself], so to be able to perform the "feast of the Buddhas" Prussian Hien Bodhisattva, himself is really full [the "glass ceremony of the Buddhas" of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva].
5. The fifth meaning is to eradicate the attachment to heaven and not:
Because of the most radical people, after entering the World, he felt that there was nothing worth looking forward to, no need to pray anymore! Here, the Bodhisattva appears, in the unbridled, we still have to pray. This meaning is very deep! Because, you accept No, [that is] a bias on one side. Accepted on Yes, is also deviated to the side. In "no need to pray " (there is nothing to look forward to), we still have to cultivate good deeds, still need to be diligent! Neither No and Yes both stand, displaying the First Noble Truth. This is not an empty saying, in everyday life, it is the same! The First Noble Truth is in daily life, not separate from life!
6. The sixth meaning is performance that shows us that all things are spiritual practice, spiritual practice is right at the:
Wearing clothes, eating rice is a practice, you work every day as a practitioner, nothing is not austerity! What virtue? The Cross, the Vow.Dressed as Thap Do, Thap Nguyen, eating rice is also Thap Do, Thap Nguyen. You must understand this place. Therefore, the great teacher said: "It is better to listen less and still be able to enter. It is not about hearing much but not doing, not witnessing. That is about spiritual practice. To be precise, one subject is enough. Heard a lot, but you can't do so much, you can't prove it, it's still useless!
7. The seventh meaning is to break [prejudice] sermon:
The teacher of the sermon often prejudices "I am a teacher, you are my pupil". For worldly things, this is not wrong, but in your mind you have that idea, that is, you have discrimination, attachments! Therefore, to tell people to go to other places to study, the distinctions and attachments will no longer exist.
8. The eighth meaning is to display the practice in that place, perform for everyone to see:
Practicing worldly or worldly dharma is in order, divided by type to learn, should not learn to dance class, keep progressing. Each of the good intellectuals will introduce you to the next good knowledge, meaning to remind you to gradually raise your own realm to progress, not stay here. Here, you won't be able to improve! Therefore, "attachment to the ceremony" , introducing the next knowledge of good will be used as such.
9. The ninth meaning is to display the Buddha Dharma extensively:
You serve, respectfully throughout all knowledge, taking part in all learning, there is no way to complete all the conditions, [this] shows that Dharma is both deep and wide. Genuine friendliness is humble in itself, praising others for being superior to oneself. If it is ordinary, when wisdom does not show money, how to recognize it?
10. In the last thing, great teacher Thanh Luong preached: Show clearly that Thien Tai and goodness have a bond
This meaning is similar to what is often mentioned by the ancient Chinese monks, ie: "The righteous monk" (the teacher and the teacher).He helped the students, and the teacher also helped each other to help each other achieve.
Thien Tai has the capacity and aspirations to study and lead to the development of teaching knowledge. Good knowledge has wisdom, has the ability to teach, to help the pupils and the Witnesses to enter;therefore, the two sides influence each other, Nang and So [5] as one.That is what we often say: "Future school" (Teaching makes both sides grow). You want to achieve wisdom, you must have the enthusiasm to teach others. You teach others to achieve wisdom. Normally lecturing is like that, through a lecture, in that hour and a half, if no one asks, the lecture is done as if it is over, it seems very full. If anyone raised questions, [the new preacher recognizes] it is true that [his own preaching] has not been fulfilled. In it, there are still questions, unrecognizable! [The audience] asked that question, [those problems] came out; When not asking, don't think about it. When asked, immediately think; then when analyzing, wisdom immediately made money. That is helping each other achieve!
Therefore, after you have understood, [will know] Good Fortune and goodness is one and not two, just as in the Sutra of Sutra said: "One is all, all is one" . Thien Tai noted, according to this favorable order, reached the end of the forty-one position. Without Thien Tai, there is no good. Without goodness, there is no Thien Tai! In other words, there is no game, how can there be a teacher? Without a teacher, there is no game! Certain teacher-student relations must be newly established mutual learning and teaching; On one side, neither side is available!Therefore, the ten meanings above are not intended to clarify the relationship between teachers and students, clarifying the teaching model. We must understand this profound meaning. Why does Manjushri Bodhisattva teach? Meaning that way!
With that same morality, we preached for thirty-seven, thirty-eight years; In the past, when the old layman Hoang Niem To, we met several times, often sent letters to each other. The old man advised me, he said: "You know how to teach the sutras and lectures for so many years, there is no need to preach anymore, nor do you need to go everywhere. You should let it all down to cultivate the talent. He said: "Buddha Dharma has no successor, this problem is very serious!" That problem I think everyone knows, renunciation or lay people understand that the Dharma has no successors, then what to do? OK! Therefore, he taught me, he said: "In old age, he had two things [to worry about], one to foster talents, and to write books on the other hand." I told her, I said, "I understand, I know, but the charm is not yet mature!" Who studied with me? I could not find anyone to say like this: "You come to study with me!" "Bridge study" is coming to ask for study, where do I go to find such a person? Enrollment? Currently there are students; You see in the scriptures, do you see Shakyamuni Buddha, Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, do you have any taste? There are no students who will teach! Why are you not enrolling? Always feel yourself not right, how dare you recruit? So when I was enrolling, which face did I look at? People come to study, they find it, there is no way, I just taught them! Therefore, the student means that he feels that he has a high culvert, he thinks that he is right!Where am I to find such a person? Enrollment? Currently there are students; You see in the scriptures, do you see Shakyamuni Buddha, Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, do you have any taste? There are no students who will teach! Why are you not enrolling? Always feel yourself not right, how dare you recruit? So when I was enrolling, which face did I look at? People come to study, they find it, there is no way, I just taught them! Therefore, the student means that he feels that he has a high culvert, he thinks that he is right! Where am I to find such a person?Enrollment? Currently there are students; You see in the scriptures, do you see Shakyamuni Buddha, Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, do you have any taste? There are no students who will teach! Why are you not enrolling?Always feel yourself not right, how dare you recruit? So when I was enrolling, which face did I look at? People come to study, they find it, there is no way, I just taught them! Therefore, the student means that he feels that he has a high culvert, he thinks that he is right! Which face do I have to look at? People come to study, they find it, there is no way, I just taught them! Therefore, the student means that he feels that he has a high culvert, he thinks that he is right! Which face do I have to look at?People come to study, they find it, there is no way, I just taught them!Therefore, the student means that he feels that he has a high culvert, he thinks that he is right!
You see that these fifty-three good knowledge are all due to the introduction of [students] to other students, no one has found [students] himself! Buddha did not enroll; when do you read the Tripitaka, the Buddha recited? Not only is the Buddha's house not recruited, but ancient Chinese teachers are also not recruited. Where is the student learning from? Learn foreign words! In Chinese culture, there is no student. You recruit students, advertise them, they are big and they have many great college subjects, great virtues or not? Even Sakyamuni Buddha, Confucius old man, did not dare to recruit students, do you even have a good liver? Because I understand this morality, I also hope to do so [that is, as Mr. Hoang has suggested], but the conditions are not mature, no one comes to study. When I go around, I come everywhere to make a relationship with people. Because all my charm is not mature, if in one place, where is this place? Duyen is not yet ripe, so go everywhere for the grace. Waiting for the charm to ripen, I said, "I definitely can!"
Unexpectedly at the beginning of last year, the group of Mr. Ly Moc Nguyen in Singapore held a training refresher course, inviting me to teach. Invite me to teach, it is okay, not because I recruited. He went to find students, invited me to teach, so it was okay. After being stable, there are now a few fellow practitioners helping me, taking audio tapes and video tapes of the things I preached in the past, adjusting them to writing; but after the adjustment was completed, I had to review it once, there were many unsatisfactory places, I had to fix it, I had to add more.If that's the case, then the new ones will be published to be able to circulate. Currently, things posted on the Internet, most of me have seen;What I can't read, can't post to the Internet, can't publish!
Therefore, at the age of old, I specialized in doing this work, but that work was also the aspiration of Quan Truong. The first two things in Quan Truong's aspirations are due to this meaning. She wished me to preach the Sutra Sutra, the Sutra of Sutra to be preached. Before she recited, Khai Tam, a magician, was in Taiwan male
Therefore, from this time on, I use the following method: Consider each chapter as a unit. Later, in overseas or in the country, any locals who asked me to teach sutras, I preached some units; After that, it will become a complete Hoa Nghiem business. It is only possible to finish this method. If not, according to my preaching in the present to preach this sutra, every day an hour and a half of preaching, every day preaching without interruption, can also take a break, every day a week off, [every week] six times, how long does it take to finish? I calculated at least seven years. Preaching every day, every week teaching six days, not leaving halfway down, having to preach seven years to complete.Kinh really big! In the past, Master Thanh Luong preached this sutra, He also preached once a year, teaching him eight hours a day; therefore, can be completed in a year. Currently, we lecture every hour and a half, if six days want to take a day off, at least seven years must be completed.Therefore, this is a very difficult thing, very rare, I hope to complete this work. Above is an introduction, we talked about it here. Now we see the text. Second page, fourth line:
(Coming) Kim tried Lisianthus Van Bhikkhu-stilts signed Phat Tam Tru, the grace of the Buddha's power, the child developed the demand, the great compassion of the mind, the lowering of the consciousness, Bi Tri's similarity, The corresponding Mind, the name Phat Tam Head. Hexagonal text .
( Sparse ) This Ji Xiang cloud over mounds sendsend heart live. That the edge of the Buddha tenforce, and hair Chi demand. Since large sad heart, thetechnology containing knowledge. Sad Chi phaselead, kind of intellectual phase should be, the namehair heart to live. Wen has sixsegments.
( Coming : Now Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van sends his body at the position of Phat Tam, meaning that according to the ten forces of Buddha to initiate the desire direction, initiate the great compassion, under the sense of consciousness, Bi and Tri Mutual instruction, corresponding to the Mind of Wisdom, is called Phat Tam Tru. The text has all six passages.
These six passages are discussed in the previous section. First of all, we must introduce Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van, we introduce this position. "Cat Tuong " according to Mr. Thanh Luong's comment must have four new virtues called Cat Tuong. The first one is Dinh, the second is Phuoc, the third is Compassion, the fourth is Tri. It is here that he has Dinh, Phuoc, Bi, and Tri, who have four virtues, of course Cat Tuong (good). After the word Cat Tuong, use the word Vân. In Buddhist scriptures use Van very much. As in the Sutra Sutra says "the great fullness of light and clarity" (the great fullness of clouds of light In this sutra, the great teacher Thanh Luong said Van has four meanings: the first meaning is "common", the second meaning is "profit", the third meaning is "blessed". , the fourth meaning is "containing rain", ie in the cloud containing precipitation, can rain. These four ways of speaking are based on the General to say.
In the past, we have preached many times, in the Mahayana scriptures, from the signifying meaning to say: Clouds signify a General, but cannot. This person we all understand very clearly. Currently, you meet the plane, fly up to the clouds, there is no obstacle. From the bottom up, the clouds form a very thick layer, but flying there, there are no obstacles at all! The body (non-natural), which represents a General, works (Us), but cannot. Clouds denote this meaning! Thus, Cat Tuong Van mentioned here is also to denote this meaning. Định, Phước, Bi and Trí are also "Generals, Emperors", so they use Cloud for example.
So it is clear that this position is the Dharma Body of the Doctor, He has surpassed the ten precepts, witnessed the First Leg of the Dharma Realm, breaking an ignorance, a partial Dharma Body. Why still call Him bhikkhu? Bhikkhu-stilts are monks; Here, use the word "Bhikkhu-stilts" to indicate that He is a monk . Which house are you out of?House of ten precepts. Therefore, usually we talk about "home", people often say: You leave the house "parents, wife, children, upland fields, houses". Incorrect! That is the form, not to mention! Some people say: "Six director is home". You leave the new continent as a renunciation, it is renunciation in Hinayana. Being ordained in the Mahayana is "escaping from the ten precepts". Thus, [renunciation] here is to escape the ten precepts; just got out of ten dharmas, though being Dharma Bodhisattva, still called him "Bhikkhu-stilts" . Use [the word "Bhikkhu-stilts"] in this sense, not that He is truly a monk.
"Signing the mind of the mind" : Phat Tam Tru is the Head, ie the Bodhisattva. "Play" is a devotion, which means Bodhicitta. Because this can be known: It is true that the Bodhicitta is transmitted, if the Bodhicitta is transmitted, it will belong to this position. We often say daily: "Distribute bodhicitta! Distributing bodhicitta ”. It is shouting, useless! Once you actually give Bodhicitta, you immediately escape from the three worlds. In the Sutra of Longevity, it is also important to develop Bodhicitta. You see "The Three Sides Of Sorrow" , in each of the Seven Sectors, the Buddha teaches us: "To develop Bodhicitta, a mindfulness of mindfulness" . If you do not release bodhicitta, you will not be able to escape the Six-Way Path, you cannot escape the Three Realms! Therefore, it must be "given the Bodhicitta, the monastic mind". to reborn the Pure Land. Because, the Western world is also the First Foot of the Dharma Realm, so it is impossible to reach Bodhicitta.Because this understands the importance of spreading bodhicitta. In forty-eight vows, the eighteenth vow is "ten thoughts that must be reborn" , the nineteenth vow is "to give Bodhicitta". Therefore, these two prayers are very important!
If discussing the pattern for the development of Bodhicitta, the Mahayana Sutra is the model for newcomers. So called Dai Thua Khoi Tin. Is "start" just starting? The arguments and methods preached in the Great Mahayana Commentary if you can do it all, you are the Mind of Bodhisattva. Saying to you again, the arguments and methods are taught in the Vajrayana sutra if you can do it all, it is also the level of Mindfulness of Bodhisattva. In all people, all, all things, you will really do "not accepting the general, as if immobile." "Not accepting the general" is that the outside is all let down, not attached to any chance.In self-centeredness, "as if motionless", knowing all the dharma is dreaming, illusory, foam, shadow, like dew, just like lightning. It is you who understand and understand the truth of all the dharmas. What position? The Mind of Bodhisattva is there!
There are also fellow practitioners who like the Shurangama Sutra, and some people ask me to teach the Shurangama Sutra. Currently, I do not lecture Surangama, but in the past I have lectured many times.Twenty-five chapters Vien Thong in Lang Nghiem is the performance of twenty-five Bodhisattvas, they are Phat Tam Tru. So in the Shurangama Sutra, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara is also the Mind of the Head, ie the Head of Bodhisattva; The Great Bodhisattva World is also the Bodhisattva Headquarter. The Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has three suttas: In the Hoa Nghiem Sutra, He is the First Recitation of the Bodhisattva; in the Prussian Gate of the Dharma Flower, He is the Bodhisattva Sense; in the Surangama Assembly, He is the Bodhisattva Prayer. So is the position of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva [in each sutra] different, elaborately austerities have shallow or different depths. That's what we have to know. Therefore, He is a step "Send yourself to the Mind of the Head".
Next is the explanation, how is Phat Tam Tru? "The Buddha's Power of the Cross" : Here, we lessen, not needing to elaborate on the ten kinds of Buddha's forces. When lecturing carefully, it will take a long time. In the past, I preached [Cross Power] many times. If you don't understand it, look in the Dictionary of Buddhist Studies and the book of the Dharma of the Dharma. In the Earth of Tathagata, there are ten things that the power of vengeance and Bodhisattva are not equal to; Nhi Thua, that is completely absent. Bodhisattva also has ten forces, the name is like ten forces of Tathagata, but the realm, elaborately equal to Buddha.So, say: "The Buddha's power, the heart of the Buddha". This is the vow to aspire to be a Buddha, like Zen Tong and Luc Dai Dai, who told in Kinh Kinh. He participated the ceremony to Hoang Mai Mountain Team Five, Fifth Patriarch asked him: "He went to do?" He said, "I come to the Buddha". He wants to come to be Buddha, that direction is great!You see people coming here, you ask: "What do you come here to do?" "I came to spend my ears, I came to do some merit." They came to do those things. We have never heard of anyone wanting to be a Buddha!Never heard of! You have no idea, how can you be a Buddha? The direction is important! Therefore, the Sixth Patriarch can achieve, opening his mouth is different from others, He wants to be Buddha! "Children play bad news" (He initiated the desire to pray), emitting that mind, He really had that mind, really had that practice.
"Run the great compassion, lowering the consciousness" : He can really upstream and downstream. You see in that time, although Luc To was still not in his hair, he was still a layman, his age was very young.When the Five Patriarch passed the medicine to him, he was only twenty-four years old. People pray to Him, He clarifies clearly to people, does not miss a bit of dharma! Therefore, we closely observe His practice, mindfulness will see these things in accordance with what is taught in the sutra.
"Bi Tri relative direction" (Bi and Tri guide each other), Bi intrigue wisdom, wisdom widens great compassion. "The corresponding mindfulness" : The mind is necessarily the Mind, is the wisdom at the Tathagata, is the wisdom corresponding to the Prajñā available in self-nature. That wisdom usually shows money, just like the Six Patriarch said. He said to the Five Patriarchs: "In the mind of the disciple often gives wisdom." Such wise birth is the "Compassionate and Relative Path," respectively. That position is the Heart and Mind, which is the form of Sister Phat Tam, which is good. You must understand: In the mind often gives birth to wisdom, that is, there is no birth or suffering.What is this mind of us all day from morning to night? Hope, discrimination, attachment, no wisdom! If you are all day from morning to evening hoping, discrimination, attachments are not all, your mind will often be born with wisdom, will be corresponding.
If we understand this morality, the truth of the truth will gradually understand some parts. The problem is, do we really want to do it? Why can't you do it? You are too serious about the predestined relationship (the conditions in the realm of life), you don't know all the worldly or worldly things are dreams, illusions, bubbles, shadows, you don't know!If you understand that: Saying "all dharmas are dreams, illusions, bubbles, shadows, like dew, just like lightning" is to say the time is short, temporary. If you see the truth of that truth, can't it be abandoned?Nature will drop down, let go of what? Let go of all thoughts, discrimination, attachments; After that, you will be born with wisdom, you will escape the hexagon, escape the ten dharmas. After you have escaped, your operating space will be taken away by nowhere, the whole world. Must actively learn! You let go a part, get yourself part; let go of two parts, be in two parts. You will not let go, it is called karma. If speaking harder, the truth is poor. Poor!
You have money, you have money, but you can't let it go. I have money to keep in the bank, not let go, what do I create? How many miserable people in the world lack money, you do not give alms, you do not create pity, who creates poverty? So you create pity. People often don't understand this, assuming there is no sin. In the future, after death, come to the king of Yancheng to investigate, each one shows you; At that time, do you regret not being able to keep up anymore! Therefore, everything must be discharged, and discharge can be achieved. You see, Cat Tuong Van knows how to discharge, what does He gain? He obtained the Mind and Mind, he achieved this. He achieved, He went beyond ten dharmas, He achieved it. Therefore, after discharge, certain gains are achieved. Give up a lot, get a lot, can't think! The Buddha cleansed all births; Therefore, He achieved consummation! Bodhisattva Equality still has a Venerable General of ignorance[6] could not be removed yet, so he still did not achieve fullness like Buddha. If you remove a piece of Birthlessness, He will be full, He will achieve perfection. Therefore, remember to "discharge well".
Almost after I saw it, I engraved this seal. I engraved in Singapore, engraved the word "good". then zoom in; they brought it in, put it outside [lecture hall] to give [to everyone]. You take it home and watch it, watch it often, have to discharge! Every discharge, will be achieved.If you do not discharge, it will be broken! If you do not discharge the reincarnation, the reincarnation will not work. Therefore, to let go, take those things away, concentrate on reciting Amitabha Buddha, you will attain the Western Great Bliss of the world. What do you want in this place to do? To tell the truth, for me the whole world, I don't want to be hungry either! Inviting me to go to the realm of Dai Pham as a king, I did not do either. I know that place is a trick, a trap; decided to go to the world of Bliss, to the world of Great Bliss to achieve. Compared to fifty-three times of attendance, the more enemies win, there is no way to compare! [Mr. Thanh Luong] introduced the Center of the Mind [like that]. "Hexagonal Instrument" (Scriptures are full of six paragraphs): In the next paragraph of this chapter, there are all six major passages as mentioned above. Each chapter follows the way to divide this paragraph.Today's time is over, we lecture here.
The second episode (12-03-02 )
Please open the sutta, the second page, the sixth line. Please read the scriptures:
(Kinh) Nhi of Thien Tai concurrently bought the second store, went to Lac Lac, posted Dieu Phong son. U the paint of the upper, East, West, South, North, four, upper, lower, Chau variable bridge, the sadness of the Japanese, the impotent wing. Do you need to improve the knowledge of trying, self-sacrificing, inexperienced thirst, mindfulness, mindfulness and mindlessness.
( Via ) Seoul when good fiscal boy child graduallytimes south of the line, to win Le country, Tang MiaoFeng Shan. In its mountain on the east west south , north four -dimensional on , week, all over seek seek.Through to Qi days, actually not able to see. Madefor the ground seeking good to know knowledge , therefore, to donate homes body life, no hunger andthirst think, is readview Police, heart safe noretreat.
( Kinh : At that time, Thien Tai was pupil in the order of going to the South, to Thang Lac, to the mountain of Dieu Phong. On the mountain, searching all over the East, West, South, North, four directions, under and under for seven days, still can not see [Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van] Because of the diligence of good knowledge, leaving the body, so there is no idea of hunger, mindfulness, mindfulness and peace of mind , not retreating.
This is a sub-section. "Nhi time" only for Thien Tai pupil new to the colon of Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong. In the commentary, Grand Master Thanh Luong teaches us the first paragraph:
(Pray) The animal prayers.
( Sparse ) according to teach interesting find.
( Say: Yes follow the teachings, go to that place, find the bridge)
Usually in this situation, the scriptures often have the recording of Thien Tai pupil thinking about the instruction and teaching of the good knowledge first, then this section [7] .
(Good) Animal rear-end.
( Sparse ) interest in seeking after friends.
( Coming : Go there, find the next good friend) .
In this place, the scriptures lack a sub-section, only "post-mortem beast", without [the following paragraph]:
(Birth) Reciting money for teachers.
( Sparse ) read before Friends of religion.
( Say: Think of the teaching of a good friend first)
There is no part of this text. The monk thought that:
(Inferiority) The needle is unspecified , or the predecessor has entered, tried atrial theory.
( Sparse ) now slightly no early righteousness. Ornot in place before , so do not say ear.
( Say: Now go away because there is no previous meaning, or the knowledge-friendly person in the previous section has not witnessed the status, so do not mention)
This explanation is also very reasonable. Just like going to school, he doesn't have a degree. Just like we now go to school, there is no degree in High School, and there is a degree in the University. In the conference of Manjushri Bodhisattva, there is no degree in the Assembly of the Faith. Coming to the Headquarters (the position of the Cross Head), there was a new position. Therefore, do not mention [the law of good knowledge in the previous section]. From here on, in general, scriptures have this meaning. But we see the scriptures always say, "Tai Tai is the second store male male
(Born) Total show Gia Hanh.
( Sparse ) total display plus line.
( Coming: It is intended to specify Gia Hanh)
Phuong male
"Dang Dieu Phong son" (Up to Dieu Phong mountain): This mountain is also to express the dharma, not necessarily to have that mountain. The mountain has two meanings:
1. The first meaning, manifesting calmness, silence, implies: The cultivator enters this realm, the six faculties exposed to the six external ceiling can be "as if immobile". That mind is like a mountain, like a mountain, uses this meaning.
2. The second meaning is high mountains. On the top of the mountain is high up, looking far away, where you can see far away. This signifies the attainment of the Siddhartha status, the open mind. The above section says "to expand wisdom in self-nature". Therefore, for all things, all things are bound to be the person (ie the first-person witness), observing the enemy to win more than the Bodhisattva. Therefore, using mountains to summon, are all examples of Dinh dynasty's merit - Hue of the Bodhisattva Nunnery that transcends the Bodhisattva's ranks. The tithing has no status, the reason is that in the Faith (the status of the Ten Believers) there is often a retreat, progress, backward. The Priesthood import will not back down.
In Pure Land, we say three things Indiscriminate (Uncertainty). To be honest, the Bodhisattva Priests in the Teachers' Church have attained these three Unsatisfied things, not just the Immortal! In the previous section, we explained, The Immortal is an example. In fact, they are Happiness and Immortality. "Mindfulness" is the concept of reciting and entering the sea of Slapped Lady. Although attaining three things of Unrest, but not completely satisfied. You must understand this meaning.In the forty-one place of Dharma Is the monk's body, the one who attains the fullness of three things? In the usual way of speaking, it will be the Dharma Bodhisattva Dharma, ie the Ten Places, ie the Bodhisattva belongs to the tenth position in the Ten Places, cultivating the three great Arahantas, called Vien. From Vien Dong to the Cross, Vien, still missing a part. Therefore, the witness of the Three Immortals is the Pure Land.Birth of the Pure Land, even if it is Lowering the rebirth in the Holy Land, is born in the world of the Western Great Bliss, all the three things of Uncertainty. Therefore, you know that forty-one Dharma positions The body of a monk in the Sutra Sutra cannot be equal to the one who gave birth to the Pure Land. It is imperative to know this, to see clearly the Pure Land enemy. If you understand this morality, understand this truth, tell the truth, what you can let down, all day from morning to evening an Amitabha Buddha is enough, there is no need to be wandering where Hoa Nghiem is so big! The Pure Land is the absolute enemy. You do not read Hoa Nghiem, do not know the Buddhist Mindfulness to win; When I read Hoa Nghiem, I realized that reciting Buddha's name was the enemy of victory.
So Thien Tai came to this mountain, to the mountain of Dieu Phong, came to that place to seek goodness, that is, to seek Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van. He searched for seven days, finding out. Although he could not see him for seven days, he was not discouraged. "You need to improve the knowledge of trying, to give up your life, to be inexperienced in thinking" (Due to diligently improving knowledge, leaving your life, there is no hunger or thirst) These three verses teach us the attitude of learning, should be attentive to learning. "Mindfulness observes, the mind does not regress" (Mindfulness observes, mind is calm, not retreating). We see the explanation of the great master Thanh Luong from the third page onwards. Everybody turn over, from the third page, we read:
(Say) Ants mind, trying to write a painting.
( Sparse ) see heart Zhi bit, it said Gordon Hill.
( Coming : Seeing the mind, reaching the status, it should be called "up the mountain") .
The true meaning of "posting paint" is not telling you to climb the mountain. "Mind of mind" is the mind and mind of nature as in Zen. Zen Tong said "intelligent mind and nature, knowledge of becoming Buddha" ; Tanh is a Buddha. In this place, it is the Precepts of Bodhisattva, ie the Bodhisattva's Bodhisattva has become Buddha. This is the Buddha's foot, not the Buddha, the nature will become Buddha. In the Prussian Gate, the Bodhisattva said that he wanted to go to the world in another way to teach beings, so if he could use the Buddha's body to attain it, he would embody Buddha to teach. Primary Bodhisattva has the capacity to embody Buddha. You recite the Immeasurable Amitayus very well, in the second product of Amitayus Sutra, [the passage about] Bodhisattva's vow of birth, in the present manifestations, an example is given, ie "Eight generals become enlightened". " Which eight generals become enlightened" is the class? The First Bodhisattva in Vien Giao had this ability, having the status of eight generals. Meeting someone with predestined relationship, should use Buddha's body to be able to attain it, [Bodhisattva] showed eight generals. This is the "mind, mind" (seeing the mind, reaching the status), using the story to go to the mountain to lure.
(Coming) Tri, the director, and the observer.
( Sparse ) Chi Kam bit line for over view of the police.
( Coming : Tri enlightens position and happiness, it is "full observation").
He is on the mountain, He wants to find good knowledge, observe the four sides. The meaning of the word "observing" is [manipulating] His wisdom, wisdom has a shining ability. The word "ant" here means "to shine" , ie "to see" (see). Fifty-one places of Bodhisattva from Sister Phat Tam until he became full of Buddha, he saw clearly and clearly. That is the meaning of the word "observing".
(Coming) Love only, the name of the bridge.
( Sparse ) love pregnant too purpose, the namewas seeking requirements.
( Say: The hope for conceiving is only called "sphere").
The meaning of his search for good knowledge is here. "Only" ( 旨) is the indicator. The only sign is Tanh Duc, in Tanh Duc there is virtue and wisdom. Do this know that: Buddha Dharma claiming to be internal, "internal" is directed to self-nature to seek, not to ask you to pray outside the mind. In the Mahayana Sutra, the Buddha called "out of mind" as an infidel. Therefore, the word "pagan" is not contempt for others, nor is it scolding people. Paganism is a dharma outside the mind, which is called a pagan; has a distinct meaning from internal school.From the beginning of the universe, all are looking for the mind in the mind, absolutely not seeking the place where the realm cannot be!Contacting the realm will come from the realm but turn around, the bridge where nature is. Like in the Shurangama Assembly, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva taught us, He told His method of spiritual practice is "counteracting the text of nature, the supreme path" (Turn the Listening back to hear where self-nature and nature become helpless). Bodhisattva eyes see sharpness, ears hear, six bases are touching the outside realm, but He uses the mind, He sees the outside, he can restore the reflection, He can return to his own nature. That is His wonderful meticulousness. He did not grasp the outside, He turned inside to contemplate. The Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara attained accomplishment by using this method, "countering the text of self-nature and the supreme character". "Sphere" means "hope to receive the message".
(Birth) Lost Enlightenment, still lost.
( Sparse ) seven sleep aid road, cloud after sevendays.
(It is : The Enlightenment Aiding is called "over seven days")
Over seven days, He could not see [the knowledge of goodness].That number seven signifies Seven Enlightenment in thirty-seven items.In general, thirty-seven plagues are divided into seven departments, ie the seven great types. Here is the sixth type, ie the Bodhi Furniture Part.The eighth type is the Noble Eightfold Path. Here, seven days symbolize Seven Corners. Disappointment should be said to be "seven days".
(Born) Dharma is inadmissible, the wings of ants.
( Sparse ) method without being too, is actuallynot see.
( MLS : No measures to attain, is "full not see")
See it or not? The decision is not visible. If you see it, it is not your mind! Mind Tanh no trace, image. Not seeing is righteousness visible. If you really see it, you're already wrong. "There is no method to be obtained" , it is called "not seen".
(Coming) Weakness and death forever, great idea.
( Sparse ) should have to forget pregnant, as mustall think.
( Say: It is necessary to give up holding things that are "perfect of thoughts")
From here on, [the scriptures] teach us about the method of public use. Therefore, reading Hoa Nghiem is extremely difficult; If you do not understand the meaning contained in it, ie as people often say [hear] "sound outside the strings" , you read the scriptures like reading Nghi Nghi novels or reading fairy tales, thought to be good The true pupil climbed the mountain in search of knowledge. Knowing that in each sentence each word contains many meanings in it, how do you understand? Therefore, Hoa Nghiem is difficult in this place. "If no one preached the Dharma, even if there is a mind, there is no understanding. " You misunderstood the meaning, followed your own thoughts to reflect the scriptures, completely wrong!
(Born) President of any projections, micro politic observations.
( Sparse ) silence is not lost as for the positiveoutlook observation.
( Say : Be quiet but don't lose the power of contemplation, it's a proper observation).
This is very important, we are not ordinary people. We have President not having a Projection, Can Toi, without President, very few people can get "President - Concurrent Projection ". What is President?President is pure mind. It is clear to understand all the realms. Presiding at the same time, President, who usually shows and shows but often President. The realm of the Bodhisattva ranks in Vien Giao from the Upper Earth and upwards is the continent of them exposed to the six-ceilinged realm, but the President of the Simultaneously. They clearly see clearly, but in the mind like silence; like a real estate is President, clearly clear is Projection. This is called "Presiding over the seat" (balancing President and Projection). President is Dinh, Chieu is Hue, Dinh - Hue at the same time, it is the mind of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
(Somewhere) Hy ly contempt mao, peace of mind.
( Sparse ) Greek from light hair, heart Ann does not move.
( Saying : Leaving all your desires, looking lightly like hairs, your mind will be calm, unmoving)
Here, "despise me" is an example. "Ly" is to leave all thoughts, discrimination, attachments, then your mind will be safe, you will be immobile. Anyway, the President can show money. "Despise" (Light hair) is the example of all the worldly laws and the creation of the world that is not worthy of entanglement, not worthy of attachment, not worthy of attachment, let go all! If you let go, your mind will be safe, you will be able to witness the realm of "peace and tranquility". At that time, the true heart will show money. Great Master Thanh Luong clarified to us the meaning hidden in this passage. It is the mind that lies beyond words, this is a difficult place in Dharma, especially the Mahayana Sutra. If you understand the meaning in the text, it is broken. Ancient people often say: "Literary medicine explains and renews the Buddha's injustice "; Three generations of Buddhas all blurted out, Buddha's mind is not like that, you are completely misunderstood!
In the next passage, the special master clearly tells us the principle of classical interpretation:
(Coming soon) Of course, we like the faith and enjoy the four factors.
( Sparse ) Although the first Germaninterpretation , there are four cases.
( Say : But ancient virtue explains the scriptures, often in four ways).
"First German" is a senior. Ancient people explain the scriptures often have four ways, there are also four principles.
(Coming) Most depending on the general target text, the second of the spear of the simple, the three areas of interest, four consistent mind damage. Most literary, meaning, sagging atrium.
( Sparse ) a with the phase cancellation message.Two to teach pick another. San Ben trace melt will.Four Standpoint heart imaginary demand. A text ameaning neglect not all Seoul.
( Say : One is based on the text to explain the meaning, the other is to use the spear to distinguish, choose, the third is the association between the Tathagata and the Tathagata, the four is the mindfulness, there is no desire for each word. every meaning, nothing is like that.)
"Most literary" is a word, each word, each of which uses these four methods to explain. Our ordinary people often have only one type of head, the " customary minister , " the following types are not available ."General minister targets" is based on the letter to understand meaning.This way is easy to say, very shallow, saying so, everyone is easy to understand, no problem! The four principles of interpretation of this text are very vividly used, not as tight and narrow as possible. Must see the interesting meaning of the text, there are very deep texts, having a profound meaning, not every sentence has deep meaning. Therefore, in that letter, there is Guest and Owner. The meaning section is contained in the very deep Owner section, the Client part is extra, more shallow.Therefore, using these principles must be taken and removed.
(Good) Kim used to spend, depending on the discharge, the literary drilling.
( Sparse ) now through with it, with the will to takehomes. Wide text uses the first meaning.
(In fact : Nowadays, all four ways are applied, arbitrarily taking or giving up, for the widely speaking texts, the first meaning applies
The word "drill" here is for the text to explain, then using the first meaning means to explain the meaning extensively.
(Coming) Functional use of the second.
( Sparse ) Meaning containing a first two.
( Say : With texts that contain many meanings, use the second method).
In this section contains many very deep meanings, so must use the Church to distinguish, choose. In the Church there are Ly, Hanh, and Fruit. The minister of the Buddha has four types: the Church, the Ly, the Happiness, the Fruit Church is language, writing. In language, literary language has moral reference, there is reasoning, except reasoning, there is a method of spiritual practice. Following that method to practice, will be able to raise your own realm, will bear fruit. Therefore, use that method to articulate the meanings contained in that passage.
(Born) Italy abuses the third.
( Sparse ) intended to abuse by Di III.
( Say : The meaning is so vast, use the third method).
The word "abusive" here is a lot of talk. [If scriptures] are very meaningful, too broad, then use the third method, that is, use the way to assemble the Tathagata and calculus. Like the Sutra Sutra has many of the most similar passages, each word, each sentence has not only one meaning, but also contains many meanings, then the third principle must be applied. The fourth meaning is:
(Good) Self-abuse mind.
( Sparse ) seems excessive division heart.
( Say : There seems to be an opinion that surpasses the teacher).
This is the fourth meaning. We cannot follow the fourth principle.Why? If we learn to follow the disease, we will preach the sutras! To be honest, today we preach the sutras that can only be used in the first two ways, it is considered quite a lot, you are already a good guy! For the following two things, if you have not yet entered the realm, it will certainly not be possible. Especially the last thing, the last thing is like the "way of promoting the discourse" that we often say now. "Promoting discourse" what? As my own opinion, my own unique interpretation. Is your interpretation of the Buddha's knowledge or is it your own opinion?If the Buddha's mind is correct, that's okay! You preach sutras will not preach. If it is your own opinion, you have already lectured the sutra already, be responsible for the cause and effect!
"Self-centered mind" is the mind [with interpretations, thoughts] beyond [his stated things], this is only the Bodhisattva great can do! For example, in the Great Wisdom of the Bodhisattva Bodhisattva, he promoted many things, what he promoted was true Buddha's mind, not wrong! In the Tripadvisor of the Geography of the Bodhisattva Maitreya, there are many things that are promoted. He is Maitreya Bodhisattva Equal Bodhisattva, what he said is really Buddha's mind; So His commentary is called Comment. If it is not such a position, promoting the discourse must be very attentive, only afraid of contrary to the meaning of the scriptures, contrary to the Buddha's mind, must bear the responsibility of cause and effect too big!
(Good) The most test subjects, the book of forgiveness.
( Sparse ) get this Yi door, non count histreasure.
( Number : Achieve a discipline, not counting other people's treasures).
If you achieve this fourth meaning, you have already enlightened your mind. Therefore, your interpretation is very close to the interpretation of Buddha, very similarly, what you say will be Hoa Nghiem's nature, what you say will be Hoa Nghiem's nature, like Sakyamuni. Buddha preached Hoa Nghiem no two, no different.Therefore, "will not count other people's treasures" half. However, this is definitely the right nature to be able to do it. Long Life is the Bodhisattva Geography, in the sutra, the Buddha used to sign for him.Maitreya Bodhisattva is Equal Bodhisattva, of course there is no problem! We must pay special attention to this. If we have not witnessed that status, our mind still has delusion, discrimination, attachment; If you want to learn the way of the Bodhisattva practice, it will be impossible to create a career. The next paragraph writes:
(Good) Waterfall of law, even the most literary, contempt for the subject, liberating the world.
( Sparse ) Tropsch matter significantly method, thetext is very much lighter this a door solution off overfar.
( Say : Thanks to the clarification of the dharma, there are many passages like this. Considering this one thing, the liberation will be further away.)
This verse is meant to tell us: For this sutra, it should be noted that all of the things mentioned in this sutra are meant to teach the Dharma, in order to display supreme dharma. In texts, there are indeed many [places like that], we have to pay attention. If we do not pay attention, we will not gain benefits, merit, you will be more and more away from the path of liberation. If you understand it, you can enter it, surely this sutra will give you the dharma of fullness.
(Willing) Trying to like the righteousness of the righteous mind, multi-purpose test. The convention of generals, general willow.
( Sparse ) so that the release of Friends by n and the like , multi with this door. If about things phase, phase and more easily up.
( Say : So in the next section, when explaining the dharma of the good and righteous reports of good friends, much of it applies. If you follow the general, the general will be easy to understand).
Therefore, Master Thanh Luong announces this sutra, paying special attention to this aspect. If in the texts there are generals, everyone who has read it immediately understands, no need to explain more! We look at the next passage:
(Kinh) Too disappointed, the Bhikkhu-pretentious Bhikkhu on the mountain, from the business.
( Via ) through Qi Ri already see each other than the mound in another mountain on Xu step throughthe line.
( Sutra : After seven days, see that the Bhikkhu-stilts is on another mountain, go on a leisurely journey).
After seven days, I could see that, Thiên Tài was able to see good knowledge. Seeing good knowledge is not on this mountain but on top of another mountain, seeing him go on a leisurely journey there. "From the ministry" is walking, walking slowly, just like when we recite Buddha's name, interfering with Buddha. Buddha noise is "from the ministry of life." Honestly, he is truly reciting Buddha's name. It seems that scriptures are easy to understand; we read the commentary of Master Thanh Luong, the more difficult it is to understand, the more difficult it is to see it. That comment is really meant. Please read the first comment. This is the second of the six major passages; the second paragraph is:
(Say) Ant glass, quartet.
( Sparse ) see King consultative asked.
( Say: See, respect , ask).
In the second paragraph there are three things. From the word "over seven days" onwards, this passage is "quartet opinion". Here it is divided into three small sections.
(Short) Preliminary, respectable glasses .
( Sparse ) beginning to see. Second respect .
( Say: At first, see, next is glass).
The second paragraph is glass, the third part is Him (ie Thien Tai pupil) wants to raise the question.
(Good) Lower test rate.
( Sparse ) a lot of this.
(Say: The following sections mostly follow this rule).
From here on, most of the texts on goodness are divided in this way, now the first paragraph: After seven days.
(Born) Ly Ly Giac Gia.
( Sparse ) from the seven senses .
(It is : Loong General status of That Giac Chi).
Here, we simply lecture about Giac Giac. The long-term fellow practitioners will all be very familiar with this [concept], it is the Seven-Way Enlightenment in thirty-seven Doshu.
1) The first is Trach Phap, Trach ( 擇) is the choice. [Zeng Fa] is to choose the method, to choose a method that is appropriate to one's own identity, appropriate to one's own level, suitable to one's own circumstances. You choose such a method to study, it will feel very easy.If you choose a method that does not fit your own level, hindering your own life, you will study very hard, not easily. Therefore, the first thing is Zemin.
2) The second thing is to be diligent. After choosing, you enter a subject. "Pure" is pure and not pure, "Tan" is moving forward and backward.
3) The third thing is Hy Giac Chi, which is the fullness of happiness.You study happily, do not feel "I study the Buddha too much!" "Suffering too much" means you learn wrong! People who study Buddha are bound to study very happily, thus being righteous, excelling!
4) The fourth thing is Khinh An. Where does Khinh An look from?Looking from your spirit and fitness, you definitely feel this good. This is like what people now call "physical transformation." If you study Buddha elaborately, your will will change, your body will also change.The prime minister, predicting the number of networks, understands the "general moves with the mind". His mind is pure, every day more and more pure, negativity is mild, negativity is less. Much affliction, he proved heavy, clumsy, everything felt very heavy, clumsy, seemed to be under heavy pressure, felt heavy. The body is like that, acting very clumsy, heavy! If you elaborately exert effort, in your mind there is less affliction. Less afflictions are less anxious, less thought, the mind is also pure. At that time, the mind is pure, the body is gentle, the walking is light and different, it is really different. Therefore, Khinh An speaks in the current way as "physical transformation", changing the appearance.Tolerance is a general that moves with the mind, becoming more and more pure, more and more compassionate.
5) The fifth and the sixth thing are elaborate. The fifth thing is Mindfulness, the sixth thing is Dinh. This is about elaboration.
The seventh refers to the Execution. The Onion is dropped. It can be said that the Bodhisattva from the Sisters of Mind until the position of Tathagata has nothing else, must be let down, must be abandoned!
This is That Giac Chi, here I just said the idea.
"Ly Giac Giac" , did you cultivate Seven Enlightenment? He cultivated; Although cultivating, he did not accept his attachment to the monk. We call it "cultivation without cultivating, cultivating and cultivating". "Cultivation" is not about not cultivating anything, he really cultivates. Although cultivating, but not accepting generals; So say: Cultivation and cultivation at the same time, not before - after, no difference, they are at the same time full. This is called "leaving the general state of the Enlightenment through seven days." The word "over seven days" to express this meaning!
(Good) The office is based, the only method is.
( Sparse ) forgetting where to live , for the purpose.
(It is said : Forget the position that has already been achieved, then it will be achieved only).
He is currently the Head of Bodhisattva, if he himself feels that "now that I have obtained the Head of Bodhisattva", do you think that he has attained the Sutra? Not yet proven, is still a lady! Why is divine?Because he still distinguishes, there are still attachments. Having attained that status, I also forgot that attainment always means that those distinctions and attachments are no longer available. Saying that he is the Bodhisattva Prayer is said by others, but he does not say that he is the Bodhisattva's Head. In the future, he will enter the Bodhisattva Geography, and he will not feel himself as a Bodhisattva. As a Buddha, he did not feel himself as a Buddha. If he feels "himself has become a Buddha", saying to you, he is no different from us, still having delusions, distinctions, attachments! Therefore, from here on, delusion, discrimination, attachments are completely left, unlike those in the ten precepts. In the ten precepts, there are still distinctions.
(Good ) The office is based.
( Sparse ) forget the place to live .
( Saying: Forget your position).
His mind is really pure, so it is called "attainment". "Just" here is self-virtue, [true heart of purity], then this is money. Whenever there is a slight distinction, attachments are automatically hindered, cannot show money! The Mahayana Bodhisattva practices nothing else, just cultivating this. Then we read this sutra, feeling very ashamed. We see identity, hearing, six bases exposed to the six ceiling realms, still distinguishing, attachments. Not only is discrimination, attachment, but also serious, is there any new day that can be achieved? We must warn this. In other words, although we have not yet reached the Bodhisattva realm, at least it must be something that cannot be distinguished, do not discriminate any more, what can not be attached, then do not accept it anymore. What can not be distinguished, not attached? Story of others!Stories of others that we also distinguish, attachment, do you not complain unjustly? Discrimination, attachment to one's own stories are forgiving, but people's stories do not come into contact with me, but we also distinguish, attachments, too big mistakes! First of all, learn not to worry about the abundance of things, that is, the stories of people who are not involved in them, learn from this place. Gradually, it will make our mind pure, peaceful, and the decision will be useful, a good place for our spiritual practice. Next is: Gradually, it will make our mind pure, peaceful, and the decision will be useful, a good place for our spiritual practice. Next is: Gradually, it will make our mind pure, peaceful, and the decision will be useful, a good place for our spiritual practice. Next is:
(Say) The intention in the special painting, the news of Dinh Hue is saved.
( Sparse ) so see the other mountains . See i.e.given coma bis stream.
( Say: So seeing in another mountain, "see" is Dinh and Hue together).
Equality to preserve Dinh and Hue!
(Born) Vi from the ministry.
( Sparse ) is via line Xu step.
( Number : A walking slowly).
Use the word "business from the ministry" to visualize. The next section tells us:
( Coming) From News only, any unreal thoughts.
( Sparse ) Xu That is dead, not live chaos would like.
( It is : The main word is Only, not in a mental disorder).
This is the separation of distinctions and attachments. Use the word "from the set" to rate the separation, attachment.
(Coming) Action news, Quan Quan, any mind remains calm .
( Sparse ) line that is a concept, not to live quietheart.
( Number : Administration is the shop, such head-to quiet mind).
If you stick to the calm mind, head to the pure realm, you are wrong again, you turn into Arhat, Bich Chien, and become Hinayana! Neither side is there! From now on, this is the practice base of forty-one French Dharma Bodies. The next part is:
(Born) Worst of the general, that is the practice of Ban Chau tam-muoi .
( Sparse ) if about something with that positiverepair Xi -like boat three ignorant.
( Say : If you wish to follow the general, it is the practice of Ban Chau tam-mu)
Practice what? Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van practice what? From scriptures, we can't see, we don't see it. When the teacher gives a lecture, we understand. He went on a leisurely journey, and was practicing Ban Chau Tam-sam. What is Ban Chau Tam-sam? People who recite Buddha's name we must know! Ban Chau (Pratyutpanna) is Sanskrit, translated into Chinese meaning "Buddha founded" ( 佛 立 ) 。Lap ( 立 ) is the word Lap in the establishment ( 建立 ) , the Buddha founded (established the Buddha's throne). Here, there are three meanings:
- The first is the dread of the Buddha. Talking is really the power to pray to the gods of Amitabha Buddha, but also the mighty power of the ten directions all Buddhas of Tathagata together bless you.
- The second is the tam-samha, the three-samadhi is the power of the dharma you are cultivating.
- Third merit of the monk himself.
Three things combined this is called Ban Chau Tam Muoi, is one of the four tam-black things.
In these very clear sutras, there are Ban Chau Tam Sutra. This monk-type cultivator can see the Buddhas of money. However, the practice is very strict, taking ninety days of maturity, it is a stage. Three months and ninety days is a period. In those ninety days, the body often walks, does not rest. That is [the reason why] Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van often go to the business leisurely. During those ninety days, you could not lie down to sleep, you could not sit down, you had to go on a business trip and go on a leisurely journey. In the ninety days the body usually walks, does not rest. What about the mouth? Reciting Amitabha Buddha. In the ninety days of reciting Amitabha Buddha, do not rest. In the mind of visualizing Amitabha Buddha, in Buddha's mind he did not rest. This is the method of spiritual practice of the Ban Chau Tam-samadhi, a period of ninety days.
In ancient times, there was a practitioner of Ban Chau Tam-muoi, but the current man was afraid that no one could have that strength.Despite this opportunity, your body cannot maintain it, it is true.Because this is known that Ban Chau is specialized in reciting Amitabha Buddha; because the merit of Amitabha Buddha is like the merit of reciting the ten directions of all Buddhas. Ban Chau Tam-samu took the concept of Amitabha Buddha to master, step by step, every hour, the mind recited and recited the concept of reciting in Amitabha Buddha.Among the ancient virtues, there is also the commentary of Ban Chau Tam Muoi Kinh. In the commentary, it is also said and explained the meaning of the word " Ban Chau tam-muoi". In the commentary also translated [Ban Chau] is "common practice" (often go on a business trip), often go constantly. He did not lie down, nor did he sit down.However, in the commentary, it gives us a very important principle: Time consists of seven days. In the sutra speak ninety days of drought.Seven days is much easier to implement. For seven days, surely this way [to practice].
In those seven days, not sleeping during the seven days of fear is very difficult to do, ninety days will not work. Someone told me that he cultivated Ban Chau Tam-sam, carrying the monk Ban Chau tam-sam, I did not believe. You are very confident, very praiseworthy, but I do not believe. He told me, I absolutely do not believe. Don't tell me that he told me to cultivate for ninety days I wouldn't believe it, even though I told him to cultivate for seven days, I still didn't believe it. Why? I have done it, but I have found that you have not changed anything, still a hope of a whole bunch of people, still a market, a person who is not like that!Although in ninety days do you really cultivate as the dharma, but when you cultivate without achievement, what is the point of doing it on your achievement board? After this practice, the true cultivation of human beings will change, different! Therefore, We understand how to say seven days of ancient virtue if we look at the nature of our beings in this era, it really is impossible! We are so karma, there is no such spirit, no physical strength!
It can be said that seven days we can shorten it to one day; One day for twenty-four hours is still not simple! If in twenty-four hours can do so, it is very difficult to have! To be honest, fear that it is not yet done! It is true that in ten thousand people, one or two people are hard to get!You can do it in twenty-four hours; for twenty-four hours to walk, recite Buddha's name, in Buddha's mind, there is no contemplation, no skepticism, no interference, no interruption. Twenty-four hours, not easy! That is the true practice of Ban Chau tam-muoi. Such people have no problem, they are Bodhisattva's mindfulness, regardless of what they are doing, they are not tired, so they can do it. Do this know that: When can we cultivate Ban Chau tam-mui as the Buddha taught? Waiting until we witness the Bodhisattva's Bodhisattva, then you recite the Buddha's name will be Ban Chau tam-mui, recite Buddha's name, not the normal recitation of Buddha's name!
In the old great masters, the Great Master of the Book was also our Pure Master. In the past, I used to think of a method of reciting Buddha's name. I have this idea very soon, the Buddhist Mindfulness Recitation of Buddha's Mind, because it is not so easy for [fellow] fellow practitioners to be righteous. Especially the current living in the ashram is not much, unlike in the old self-suicide temple, there are several hundred monks in it, even a two thousand monks, make this easy, easy to carry out.Currently, the number of people in the ashram is very small, all are the pillars; Therefore, the popularity of the mass is also quite difficult.Fortunately, the Buddha Memorial machine was invented now, very well, inventing the Buddha Memorial machine too well! If we collect a new tape for the Buddha Recitation, The current sound of this Buddha Recitation machine has a vague ambiguity, four unknown Amitabha Buddha words. Moreover, certain vocalizations must be typed in Đà.Currently, in our ashram, everyone knocks on the right rhythm. A Di Da Buddha, led the right to type in the word Da, just hit a voice to guide [for each sentence] is okay!
We can record other audio recordings for the Buddha Recitation machine and then create a new Buddha Recitation machine to supply the Buddha's Mindfulness. Thus, there is no need for a person to initiate the voice of a Buddhist monk in the Buddhist Mindfulness. Those sounds of Buddha Recitation machine have, no need to type, can reduce a lot of things. But people who recite Buddha's name more or less are all okay, the three people can recite Buddha's name. At that time, I thought that if I used the Buddha Recitation machine, there was no need for those who received them; but to recite the Buddha's Way not to speak, all of them let go, unanimously reciting Buddha's name. In the Buddha's Mindfulness, divided into three zones, the center area has a Buddha statue to worship Buddha, the two sides give purity. That is, when you recite already, you can go there and sit down. Sitting down without having to recite the sound, it is okay to think quietly in your mind,essential for health. In addition, there is a time of Buddha's harassment and walking. Practicing, interfering with Buddha, we must recite the sound. The Buddha must recite the sound, only to speak, then not to speak out. Feast of the Buddha should not be thought of, and the Buddha's mind will cause harm to the body. Therefore, when celebrating Buddha, reciting Buddha's name in mind is okay! A Buddha's path divided into three zones, if you like Buddha noise, you will disturb Buddha, you like to worship Buddha, then Buddha. The ceremony was tired and then happily went to the side and sat down, you sat down, no one banned you! If you like Buddha noise, you will disturb Buddha, you like to worship Buddha, then Buddha. The ceremony was tired and then happily went to the side and sat down, you sat down, no one banned you! If you like Buddha noise, you will disturb Buddha, you like to worship Buddha, then Buddha. The ceremony was tired and then happily went to the side and sat down, you sat down, no one banned you!
In the past, I have mentioned this method many times, but it has not been done yet. Later, I read the Luc Luc of Hanh Hanh, and at the end of the book there was also that method. He lived before my time, but [his childhood] He did not have a Buddha Recitation device. He thought like me, divided people to recite Buddha's name into three boards, each with four people ordained them to receive them, knocking on the dharma to receive them. A ban on Buddha, two boards only net, rotated, this group recalls tiredness, when only pure, the second board again interferes with Buddha. At that time, everyone's mind is very pure, the body feels comfortable, can be maintained for a long time, sustained in the Buddha's Mindfulness. He divided into three divisions, each with four monks, and we currently do not have enough numbers to use the Buddha Recitation. This method of mine compared to His method is more convenient, because, His way is to go back and forth to follow the union, and in my way, do not go to unions. You personally sit there, sitting long and tired, you need to be active, you disturb Buddha. If the Buddha interferes with his mouth, or first you bow to the Buddha, you come to the center in the middle of prostrating to the Buddha.
It is possible to create such a Buddhist Recitation, outside there is a guardian, just like in the Buddha's Buddha there is an outsider, taking care of you, taking care of the Buddha. You need tea, he or she prepares for you; What you need to eat, he also prepares for you. What do you want to eat, when you are hungry, do not call other people: "Go to eat rice!" Amitabha Buddha, Amitabha Buddha, in which intermingled "go eat rice!" Is not good at all! So, if you feel you have to eat, eat yourself, don't bother with others. If something needs to go out, you can go out and recite it, without needing to screech others. You are in the Buddha's Mindfulness, the mind of eternal purity, elaborating on Buddha's mind is really powerful. In the past, I used to think of this method, currently like the ashram Dallas
From this sutra we see that: This sutra reveals to us great. Thien Tai was separated from his teacher, went to study, the first was introduced by his teacher. The teacher introduced it, of course, that the teacher had a special intention, not an arbitrary introduction. The first position is Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van specialized in the practice of reciting Amitabha Buddha. Meeting a person first of all [his disciplines] will be the Master (the principal). [His dharma practice] will turn into the main practice practice of fellow pupil Thiên Tài. In the end, Bodhisattva Samantabhadra used ten great vows to lead to the Bliss. You see, He was from beginning to end as one; after that, do you think, what kind of dharma is Good pupil Goodness? Dharma Mindfulness! An Amitabha Buddha thought to the extreme! Why does Manjushri Bodhisattva introduce him to this practice? It is the Bodhisattva Manjushri who practices this practice, Bodhisattva Samantabhadra also practices this practice. In the previous section of this forty volume volume, not in the forty volume but in the thirty-nine volumes of the forty volumes, we see Manjushri, Samantabhadra praying to give birth to the Western Pure Land, just to know. They have practiced this practice. The most wise Manjushri among the Bodhisattvas, in the previous section, we mentioned the selection of dharma, the first wisdom of course selects the most vengeful enemy method. Thus, the recitation of the Buddha Recitation is chosen by the Bodhisattva Manjushri, chosen by the Bodhisattva Samantabhadra, which is the chosen method of them. Thien Tai is their favorite student, do they teach any other Good and Good Method? we see Manjushri, Samantabhadra praying to give birth to the Western Pure Land, to know that they have cultivated this practice.

Say so, why Manjushri does not teach himself to Good Fortune, but must tell Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van teach? Here, there is a very deep moral! There are times when, for teachers and students, there is still a bit of prejudice. I am such a case! When I studied with Master Ly, Master Li taught me to practice the Buddha Recitation method, although I was not skeptical, but I did not fully accept it. I thought: "The Mahayana sutra is so much, it seems that this practice is for old women to learn!" Find a third person to perform, open up again for students to see. [Student] then thought again, his teacher also learned this method, his mind was fixed again. It is a teaching trick, a skillful means!
I fully received it, accepting the Buddhist concept of reciting Buddha's teaching by the teaching of Hoa Nghiem. From the year of the National Population 60 (1971), I began to preach this sutra, at the time of preaching, at the end of the seventeen years, the Sutra of Sutra preached half, preaching the Four Crosses of Strictly being also half, the Eight-Tailed Shogun half lecture. After that often go abroad, this sutra is suspended, no more lecture. At that time, there was no recording tape, what was said did not save. Therefore, this time there is a recording machine, giving a one-time lecture, hoping to record it into a complete set of tapes for people to refer to, the profound meaning. We see the next passage. The previous paragraph is Thien Tai see Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong, it is Ant.
(Business) Instant money technology, wealthy girl song song, tam tam noise, the pediatric attorney.
( Via ) that is front to Yi, the top gift double foot right around three turns, combined palm andlive.
( Sutra : Continue forward, prostrate under two feet, noise in the right direction three times, and stand with hands together).
This is the second paragraph, ie Glass. [Annotation by Master Thanh Luong said] the second paragraph is as follows:
(Good) Intelligent design of respect and dignity.
( Sparse ) Ming provided respect instrument.Heavy person method therefore.
( Say: State how to show reverence because of respect for people and dharma).
Why respect the teacher? Do respect him, respect the dharma. So, seeing [good knowledge] immediately rushed over there, saw the face immediately celebrate. "To pay homage to dignity": Treat him like Buddha. Then "possessed the noise" , this is the most revered ritual in India in ancient times. After bowing to three bowls, there was still noise around the three rings. "Pediatric Attorney General" (standing with hands together), Head is standing somewhere. Next text:
(Sutra) White language: - Saints! A first crossroads of A Nau Da La Tam Mieu Tam Bodhi Mind.
( Via ) white words, holy , and I have to send A hoemore than Luo three despise three Bodhisattvamention heart.
( Sutra : Bach said: - Dear Saints! I have previously developed the Supreme Master's Righteous Mind.
This is the third sub-section in the second paragraph.
(Coming) Four weak questions.
( Sparse ) Advisory ask France to.
( Say: Please let the disciples be asked for the essential dharma) .
Looking forward to good knowledge of visiting teachers. This passage is quite long, and must be divided into sub-sections, so it is divided into three sub-sections. This is the first paragraph.
(Suoi) Tu Tran gave his heart and clarified the dharma.
( Sparse ) from Chen hair heart, next there lawdevice.
( Coming: The [himself] art has made a point, stating that he is eligible to receive the dharma.
First of all, "white" is the venerable word for the person below. "White language" (say), but cannot say: "I told you." "Tell him" is the man who told the bottom. The Buddha told others, that Buddha told someone, the Buddha told the person, that is the upper person to the under, should use the word "fox". The lower guys for the above use the word "white" , this is a word that looks respectful. "Saints" is the voice to call Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Van, because the Bhikkhu-stilts are not ordinary monks, can not call the Bhikkhu-stilts is usually "holy" . This is the meaning contained in the word "Bhikkhu-stilts", implies that he has just passed the ten precepts, that is the meaning of the word "renunciation" : Ten dharmas are home, out of that house. Therefore, they are great saints, great Bodhisattvas. Saying that I used to play A Nau Da La Tam Tam Tam Tam Tam, that is, I have developed Bodhicitta. Without Bodhicitta, Bodhisattva will not teach you, Bodhisattva has no way to teach you! Have you ever thought of that mind, you said yourself out loud: "I have the right to study the Mahayana dharma." The basis of the Mahayana dharma is Bodhicitta, I have already developed Bodhicitta!
"Being in the air," the word "dharma" here is a parable. Like I am thirsty, hope you will give me water. Give me water, I have a cup. That cup is "legal magic". I take the cup, I have the cup here, you can give me the meaning. You can pass on the dharma to me, I am a juridical person, having the capacity to receive. This is a meaning. [He has] developed Bodhicitta, which is a spiritual device, which is very important.
(Kinh) Pediatrics position Bodhisattva vein learn Bodhisattva almond? Van Ha cultivated Bodhisattva happy? Van Ha start Bodhisattva almond? Spruce on the Bodhisattva almond? Are you still in trouble with Pho Hien Hanh?
( Via ) but not known Pu Sa Yun Ho Science Pu Saline. Yun Ho repair Bodhisattva Sa line. Yun Ho from the Bodhisattva Sa line. Yun Ho row Bodhisattva Saline. Is the to Yun Ho in P Yin row disease have roundfull.
( Sutra: But how do we know the Bodhisattva's Bodhisattva's happiness? How to make Bodhisattva happy? How is Bodhisattva's practice? How to make Pho Hien happy?)
This is the second sub-section. The second segment is:
(Good) Chief Justice questioned.
( Sparse ) positive Chan are asked.
(Say : Straighten the question).
He raised his own questions and questions to ask for good knowledge of teaching. "I have developed Bodhicitta, but don't know how to learn Bodhisattva almonds?" "Learning" is about to understand.The second sentence "still cultivates the Bodhisattva" : This verse is about Hanh. These two verses are both Good and Happiness, as a total of tenure. In a previous chapter, we said before, in the previous chapter there were a total of thirteen questions. This place is simple, there should have been all thirteen sentences, but it was omitted. We see the Note, this meaning is already mentioned in the previous section. In the commentary write:
(Good) Th.
( Sparse ) times.
( Coming : Next).
"Monday" is the second paragraph, ie the second minor paragraph.
(Born) Pediatric "position" lower.
( Sparse ) but is not known at.
( Coming : From "but not yet known" onwards).
This is about this passage.
(Good) Chief Justice questioned.
( Sparse ) positive Chan are asked.
( Say : Straighten the question).
This is the presentation of what Thien Tai wants to ask.
(Born) Showing French hybrids.
( Sparse ) significant for the method to.
( Say : Clearly state [yourself] because of the dharma.)
It is clear that Thien Tai came to France because of the dharma, but not because of other things.
(Coming up) The central problem is fake.
( Sparse ) ask the abbreviated .
( Say : The question here is shortened by [translator].
The questions asked here we have seen in the previous section have a total of thirteen sentences, but here are only five sentences, shortened! " Shorten " is not due to the shortened text but shortened by the translator, but the verbatim is.
(Coming) Nhược Thien Thao , the vein of Ha Tri.
( Sparse ) If the good earnings slightly, Friends of the cloud where known.
( Say : If Thien Tai is shortened, it will be good to know) .
If Thien Tai only said these five verses, then the goodness declared to him is only five points, how can the teacher be fully satisfied? The teachings in the following section are very full; for all thirteen questions, all lectures are very complete. Because this may know: In this place, [simplified questions] are shortened by translators. The short translator is also the cause, because, Chinese people like simplicity. Here, I talk about old Chinese people. Chinese people in ancient language, literary all liked simple, they did not like to say cumbersome. Therefore, they saw that there were many places in Buddhist scriptures, when the sutras were shortened. Therefore, the next sentence [in the commentary] is:
(Birth) Realizing any pre-emptive message.
( Sparse ) under Friends not be all over thedispatch before asking.
( Say : Then the next good friend who could not have answered perfectly matches the questions in the previous section).
"The message" is every one thing because He (ie Good Fortune fellow) said, Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong all answered, showing that his question is fullness, not only five sentences, but must be thirteen. Again see the next paragraph:
(Sutra) The author of the sacred writings is good at tempting, to pray from anyone, who declares it. Van Ha Bodhisattva attained the achievement of A Nau Da La Tam Miệu Tam Bồ Đề?
( After ) I heard the Holy those good can lureinstruct. Only willing Chi sorrow, as I declare that the cloud where Pu Sa -speed get into it A hoe more than Luo three despise three Bodhisattvamention.
( Sutra : I hear the saints can be cleverly counseled, taught, please mercy to say to me: "How can the Bodhisattva be able to attain the Supreme Master's Enlightenment?")
Literature came to this place was the completion of the petition of Thien Tai pupil for good knowledge. This is the third sub-section, the third sub-section is a petition. Places like this, we should all learn. If we are close to a good knowledge, towards the petitioner, we must show politeness, the words must be in moderation, unable to snatch up the question, a little glass of glass is unknown, people I won't tell you! If you know everything, know how to keep up, people can't stop preaching to you. People do not preach to you, will be awkward, you really come to France! So after you have asked the question, you have to compliment the knowledge, then tell him. Therefore, "I heard that the saints could cleverly counsel and teach." This verse is to scatter the ants. The commentary about this passage is as follows:
(Coming) Post.
( Sparse ) after .
( Coming : Later).
The word "post" here refers to the third paragraph.
(Good) " The author of the sacred writings" came down, praising the doctrine of the doctrine, the sacrifice.
( Sparse ) I heard the Holy those under sighGermany please say, hope hanging pulleconomy.
( Number : Since the word "holy text down" onwards is commendable virtue, sometimes say, looking [good knowledge] will invite willing to help).
Good knowledge to help Him. " Awning " is "suffering" (flat suffering), "sacrifice" is "relief" (salvage). Longing for good friends to help, help him indulge in enlightenment.
(Good) The good-minded, friendly from infinite, trying to claim the theory.
( Sparse ) means that there is wisdom andgoodness , and there is no kindness , so it should besaid.
( Number : Italy say he has wisdom, will have the capacity or skill, it should not feel free from avarice, so to speak) .
Goodness has wisdom. If he has wisdom, of course, there will be skillful means, he can apply the sermon. Being compassionate has compassion, compassion, so surely there is no doubt, it will be very happy to teach. Therefore, he will definitely say. Next is an explanation of the word "temptation" (commandment).
(Inferior) The example of the example, ie the life of the market is the first prize.
( Shu ) induced that induced Yu, i.e. is taughtgranted to as prior solutions.
( Number : Du mean advised example, which is commanded achievements as stated in the Resolution section above).
If you use the current way of speaking, this word ( ụ ) is the medium.Encourage people, use skillful means to seduce and guide people, not necessarily words. In addition to words, can be said to be the most nominated, most active, a word, a smile, all have the power of advice, guidance. "Chance" ( 誨) is teaching.
(Born) The repentance of the market, ie the world of the precept into the precursor.
( Shu ) teach that instruct shown, i.e. is taught Jieto as front row.
( Number : "Penance" is taught, ie teaching commandment to accomplishing part Hanh as stated in the above).
"Suffering" is to help him understand, To say how to teach him how, how to cultivate? From here on, these two words are often encountered;Because, Thien Tai, who met with good knowledge, used the following way of complaining: "I heard that the saints can be adept at teaching and teaching . " The meaning is the same.
(Good) Advertising money.
Although it was widely asked before ( sparse ) .
( Coming : In the previous section, the question was wide).
In the previous section, there are thirteen questions, these questions are shortened [in the literature], these are extensive questions, but in the final sentence [of the question] ...
(Coming soon) Staffing.
( Sparse ) but to reason circle.
( Coming : Just to reach the full monk) .
Just to point out the summarized question: How will it make the Bodhisattva accomplishments Supreme Bodhi very quickly? This is a summary.
(Coming up) Trying to summon sometimes, wonders when you are satisfied.
( Shu ) this the knot Please, period in fruit full.
( Coming up : The summary of the question here is to hope for the best results).
Because this may know: Thien Tai Bridge study is not to reach this stage and then end. Not so! He also wants to reach the ultimate consummation, so that he can fulfill His aspirations.
(Say) Song connected to the mind of trying and trying.
( Sparse ) bis knot hair heart Q line intended it.
( Coming : Ending both mindful thoughts and asking about spiritual practice).
In this spear passage, majesty, words, feasts are very full, we must follow them. The next part is Bhikkhu-stilts Cat Tuong Van for Thien Tai, answering his questions. Today we preached here.
