Conception of the world The ultimate bliss is the ideal world, we must rely on the sutta given by the Buddha Shakyamuni preaching over thirty thousand suttas. From there we can compare and compare, to find common ground and this is our own personal thoughts. Here we quote the original text in the Amitabha Sutta in the Product of Birth:
- Resurrection conditions: This relics, regardless of female or male, want to be reborn, then be diligent, start thirst, remember not to forget, practice mindfulness "single-mindedly rebellious" within a day , for up to seven days. In this moment, his mind must be very quiet as in meditation, no longer scattered, crazy island fantasy. At the time of his death, Amitabha Buddha, the saints of Ha sa, spread his arms to lead, made rebirth, attended them holy, never divided. This Xa Loi Phat, because seeing the sa sa benefit due to reciting Amitabha, we recommend that you should concentrate, recite Buddha's rebirth.
Comment: In this section, the main content to decide on rebirth is the phrase "single-mindedly rebellious". Perhaps the Buddhists also discussed this sentence a lot, that is, a non-chaotic mind. A mind that does not rebel from one day to seven days, will Amitabha Buddha and their Saints take to the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss?
The question arises, what is the mind without disorder? Researchers often confuse this place, the mind is not confused and the corresponding concept of a different heaven and earth. One on the one hand is reciting, on the one hand is mindless, but still reciting but often still clearly speaking cannot come. Most conceptual correspondence corresponds to that recitation of the Buddha's message into slabs and stone formations, which also means reciting, but only one recitation. The word reciting here has two meanings, one is to remember, the other is to recite the noun roughly like reciting the mantra! But also the concept is still reincarnation, ie no rebirth in peace in all circumstances because there is no longer to go.

Explaining the meaning of Ultimate Bliss means that there is no more suffering and joy, so it will be synonymous with Nirvana. Infertility is no longer suffering and is often known. Who knows? So obviously this is the realm of Nirvana, not the realm anymore ... Studying Buddhist scriptures, we know the profound meaning of where If the argument on language is more and more bound by language, Buddhists need to escape ...
- Next we will discuss the mind, the mind has two parts of mind and heart. The mind is a noun anyone can speak, but what the mind is, no one knows it clearly. The root of Buddhism is the mind. Those who study Buddhism must know that the source is their own mind and not seek elsewhere. In real life, Buddhism is a human education that helps people realize the dharma for enlightenment, liberation and becoming a Buddha in this body.
But the mind is divided into two parts: The chon mind is also known as the mind that knows it clearly; The heart cannot use speech or thought, can only hear or know without hearing, the images of things know how. A false mind is a good thought that distinguishes between good and bad, right and wrong, one ...
The false mind is "the knowledge that distinguishes between good and evil and right and wrong", or the spiritual part. The mind has no long, short, square, round form, or has green, red, yellow, white, black, brown colors. We cannot see the mind with our eyes; nor can he touch and touch the mind with his hands and feet; Only see the effect of it through the eyes, ears, tongue, body and mind, so there is mind.
The true mind is manifested through seeing and hearing, when seeing is just seeing and still often knowing clearly all images of things, colors of green, white, red, yellow. When listening is just listening but not clinging to loud, pleasant or unpleasant sounds, so we always live with constant listening.
As with "electricity", people cannot hear or touch the electricity; just by seeing its effect, knowing electricity. For example, if you put electricity into a light bulb, the light is bright, the fan is turned on, the fan is turned, the electric iron is hot, the refrigerator is frozen liquid, etc. So that's why people know that have electricity.
The mind of the Buddha is like that, because it has the effect of seeing, hearing or knowing depending on the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind without the awareness of good and bad, right and wrong, etc., so we know that there is mind Buddha is wise right here in this body.
This is an important issue in spiritual practice, who will have the time to enter the mind of the Buddha right in the body of each person. Here the meditator calls the mind to dissolve into nothingness and still knows it clearly. Meditation practitioners will be able to enter this place a lot, but it will only flash for a few minutes or a short time ...?
Here the Buddha taught to be single-mindedly rebellious from one day to seven days, then the Buddha will bring him to the Pure Land? ... Up to now, no one has dared to confirm where the ultimate bliss realm has been, in texts saying countless memories of West. But can enter the mind for a few minutes or an hour, then the meditators ... can experience it. Here we have found the weakness of a non-chaotic mind only. Practitioners who want to meditate don't want to be confused
- Compare the Sutta Pitaka: Our eyes see all images of things, knowing clearly the colors green, red, white, black, brown, yellow etc. ... This knowledge does not belong to the eyes but depends upon in the eyes to see clearly the image, the color is unmistakable, how things know like that, so it is called visual consciousness, the knowing of refuge in the eyes, ears, ears, tongue, tongue and body So.
In the Shurangama Sutra, the King of Concern King stood up, white Buddha: I have never heard of the Buddha's teachings, I met the Shakyamuni and the Bhikkhus at the time of the Buddha said: called Nirvana. " Now, although I still meet the Buddha, I still doubt, "How can I bring this certificate to know that this mind is not born to die?"
Buddha asked: Great King! His current identity is usually not vandalized or vandalized?
The king answered: White World Religion! The present body of birth and death changes constantly.
Buddha said: Great King! He had never killed how to know it did not?
The king answered: White World Religion! Although my impermanent vanity, though I have never died, I see that the recollection of mindfulness will always stop, like fire and ash will gradually disappear, so I can know that this body will slowly be destroyed.
Buddha said: Great King! Yes. Now he has aged over time, what looks like when he was young?
The king answered: White World Religion! In the past, when I was young, my skin was thin and fresh, until I became mature and full of blood, now the old child weakens the dry appearance, the spirit of darkness, gray hair with wrinkled face will soon die, how can I be compared? with healthy and full time?
Buddha said: Great King! Where can you imagine getting old?
The king answered: White World Religion! He secretly transformed and moved really, I didn't know, so hot and cold changed gradually like that. Why? When I was twenty years old, even though I was still young, my face and face was older than ten years old, until my thirties turned out to be more than twenty years old, now I am sixty-two years old and look back when I was fifty years old. coated healthy.
Dear Reverend Ton! Silently shifting but set a time limit of ten years, but I carefully consider where it changed ten years and twenty years, but actually changed each year; not only year by year, but month by month, month by month. But if the more thoughtful considerations more subtle, then every moment, every thought always moves. Therefore, I know this body is complete with disappearance.
Buddha said: Great King! He saw the transformation change did not stop, enlightenment know his body destroyed; also when that kill, he knows in itself there is nothing to kill?
The king took the white Buddha's hand: Really, I don't know.
Buddha said: Now I show you that non-arising and passing away characteristic. Lord! When you see the Ganges age, how old?
The King answered, " When I was three years old, my mother and I went to see Than Ky Ba Thien right here in the river, then I knew the Ganges.
Buddha said: Great King! As he said, when he was twenty years older than ten years old, until he was sixty years old, he recited his thoughts and thoughts, and changed when he was three years old when he saw the Ganges River until he was thirteen years old. how?
The King answered: As at three years of age, it is clearly the same, until now at the age of sixty-two, that view is no different.
Buddha said: Now he takes care of gray hair and wrinkles, decides that his face is more wrinkled when he was younger, but now he sees that the Ganges river and the view of the Ganges river in the past are young and old?
The King said: Dear Blessed One! No
Buddha said: Great King! Although his face was wrinkled, his visual traits were never wrinkled; wrinkle will change, not wrinkle will not change; change is born and die, what does not change which does not kill, why in that life and death with him, which he quoted Mac Dà Le ... said this body after death is to kill it all?
Then also in the Shurangama Sutra, Buddha in the masses put his hands up and closed his arms, held them back, asked Ananda: "What do you see now?" .
Ananda said, "I see Tathagata's golden hands in them spreading."
Buddha said to Ananda: "Do you see my hands in them being spread, or do my views spread?"
A Nan said: "The hundredth hand of the World Honored One is in them, I see the Tathagata's hand spreading, not counting the position of the child with the fist."
Buddha asked, "Which one is active and which is pure?"
Ananda said, "Buddha's hand is active, his calculation even has no tranquility, let alone the movement".
Buddha praised: "That's right".
When reading the sutta above, we see that the Buddha clearly shows just where this body arises and which does not arise. The body is a stream of changes that change every moment, from the time when your eyes are opened until you grow up to grow old, get sick, die, and this body is not real so impermanent destruction. Seeing upwardness in the eyes of the past has never been changed, then there is no impermanence to destruction, because when we see all images of things like that, we know that clearly and still often know it clearly.

Surangama Sutra, Buddha told Ananda to beat the bell and asked if he heard it, A Nan said yes. Wait when the bell fell silent for a moment, Buddha asked: "Did you hear?" . Ananda answered, "Not listening!" , Immediately scolded by Buddha: "Why did you forget to follow things?" . Buddha continued: "When there is a sound, there is a sound, when there is no sound, a sound is heard . "
Listening is always constant so there is a known voice, a unknown voice without a voice, yet we do not admit that we should always live in miserable suffering because we follow the sound, big and small, pleasant or not satisfied.
In seeing knowing all images of things, we follow the distinction of being ignorant; in seeing seeing, seeing only seeing does not distinguish as Nirvana. That is the way to return to the true nature of the constant, the constant. It is the teaching in the Shurangama Sutra and the Zen masters at the same point, there is no difference.
- Comparison of Zen masters: Zen Master Sung Tin is the son of a dumpling vendor near the temple, bringing bread to the Zen Master Dao Ngo every day. Each time he received the bread, Zen Master Dao Ngo left one for him and said, "I will give you one, to save the favor for the offspring later" and so on for a long time. The teacher was very surprised, so when he asked, the Zen master replied: "Your bread brought me, I give you one, what is the mistake?"
Sung Tin could not help but find out the answer, one day he went to see the Zen teacher, asking for the truth. The Zen master said: If you want to know, let go of the renunciation and study the path, I will because of you. Sung Tin heard that he finished arranging the family, then left home to study. However, when he entered the monastery for more than 3 years, the teacher did not teach anything, making him more and more curious, so the mind became a mass.
One day, the monk said, "From the day you came here, you have never been taught the mind of a weak mind . " Dao Enlightenment replied: "Since you came here, I have never taught you . " The monk asked, "Where do you teach?" Guru Enlightenment said, "You offer tea, I continue. You brought the rice, because I accepted it for you. You paused, I nodded. Where not only teach the weak heart . "
The end of the monk's head is silent for a long time Dao Enlightenment: See straight then immediately see the wrong thinking . When listening to this saying, he got a little enlightened, then asked: "How can I preserve it?" Dao enlightenment: "Despite the nature of the knife, depending on the grace and generosity, there is no other holy mind." Right at this saying, he realized, After he arrived at Long Đàm, taught them how to study.
Speaking of seeing means that only seeing regularly knows right in our eyes, when not yet initiated the discrimination discrimination to compare beauty and beauty, than losing. Zen Master Sung Tin, who was a layperson every day, offered to donate ten dumplings every day. Strange like that! He thought to himself, what might a sublime intention mean? After many meetings with the Zen Master looking forward to answer the above question, but the Zen Master did not answer but just said: "Cake you worship, I give you a mistake?"
Every day he makes dumplings that are both sold and donated, we note that what is known is dumplings. It was here that the Zen master wanted to see only the refuge in his eyes so that he could recognize his master as the true nature of Buddha nature, which he would later teach his offspring later. When Chongxin got back a dumpling, what he saw, what he knew, he knew that dumplings had not initiated discrimination, so what was then? The Zen master was so compassionate, so he put the disciple in the end, forcing the disciple to pay high attention to it, but he could no longer remember anything else, thus becoming a mass for a long time.
And one last solution would be to become known as a layperson. But when he became a monk, he began to serve as an attendant without any advice. Whenever asked, the Zen master deceived without replying. This is a tactic of Zen masters who want to make the student only ask one problem, so that many other thoughts, times falling down over time because of the concentration into one place.
Waiting until his disciple was too hungry, the Zen master said only: Do I always teach the mind of weakness? He offered bread to us! I give him one, he saw the ears so clearly where is not the focus? At this place, the sky and the earth are immeasurably endless, but not beyond the view as pure as.
Until we open or close our eyes, it always shows itself. It does not depend entirely on the eye, good eye organ, it is clear, bad eye organ, it is now overshadowed, until it is damaged, it will not go away. Blind people see their eyes dark, just like the brightest people in the dark, they still see the same.
That characteristic often knows clearly the impossibility of seeing upwardness in the eyes, Zen Master Sung Tin received the mind of magnetism, so later on, he was also taught by this method. Also in the Shurangama Sutra taught: "Six bases are reincarnation, six bases are also Nirvana root." People who want to return to their true nature often know clearly, there is no other way than to rely on their eyes, ears, ears, tongue and tongue.
The six faculties are the root of samsara, the six bases are also the root of liberation, why is there such a difference? In seeing knowing all images of things, we follow the distinction of being ignorant; in seeing seeing, seeing only seeing does not distinguish as Nirvana. That is the way to return to the true nature of the constant, the constant. It is the teaching in the Shurangama Sutra and the Zen masters at the same point, there is no difference.
