COMMUNICATION BUDDHISM VI
THE PHILOSOPHY OF BUDDHISM OR THE GREAT GERMANY
A.- STARTUP [^]
Those who come to the strange city, if there is no map, will not be out of the way. People who walk in the sea are marvelous, with strong waves and wind, floating in the middle of the sea. If there is no guide, it is not easy to overcome thousands of worms and return to the country. Those who go to fight the enemy, if they do not have any soldiers, do not understand the tactics and strategies, they will not be able to win the enemy, bring back the security order for the country, and preserve the young river cam tu. If a worker does not have a ruler, he cannot make a valuable item.
Austerities also, if you do not understand the way to win, winding, the arduous pass, the dangerous pit in the way of practice, the hallway of witnessing, then it is impossible to get lost in the wicked, sa evil places religion.
Kinh-Lang-Nghiêm is an extremely precious set of teachings, showing the way of austerities in a clear way, which is clear, docile, happy, and fruitful. The practitioner has to go through so many positions, while he encounters how dangerous things are, and how to avoid them, the Sutta-Lang-Nghiem clearly teaches them.
Speaking of Kinh-Lang-Nghiêm, every Buddhist person who doesn't hear is a set of Dai-thiep, medium or best, but also the most precious. Austerities understand Kinh-Lang-Nghiem, just like a pedestrian with a map, a sailor with a needle, a worker with ink, a ruler, and a soldier with a battle map.
Because Kinh-Lang-Nghiem is so valuable, in ancient times the Indian kings considered it a national treasure, strictly keeping it from spreading out. Meanwhile on the Chinese side, there was Mr. Thien-thai Tri-fake Master, heard the precious Sutra-Lang-Nghiem, so twice a day early in the afternoon, turning to the West (India), kneeling in prayer. for Kinh-Lang-Nghiem was soon spread through China, to benefit pants-birth.
About 100 years later, there was Mr. Bto-like-Emperor, an Indian, repeatedly tried to bring Kinh-Lang-Nghiem to propagate in China, but to no avail, because the law of the country was strictly prohibited and controlled. very close.
At the last time, he wrote the sutras in a thin silk, then rolled them up, sliced the muscle into it, tape it up like a scabie, and brought it out of the water.
We should remember the miracle of the "Dharma-passing-away Dhamma" of Mr. Bat-Thich-Mat-De. Try thinking: A plant cut into the house still hurts; a baby, scabies, pain; let alone splitting a long path in a muscle, cramming a small silk, over the course of several days, from India to China. If unfortunately revealed, must be executed. So we have enough to see the preciousness of Kinh-Lang-Nghiem is how! because the mind of the selflessness of Bodhisattva Bat-like-secret-truth is worthy of all beings for life.
When Mr. Bat-Thich-Mat-De brought this Sutra-Tomb-Nghiêm to China, came to the land of Nam-displacement, met with the Minister-General named Phong-dung, and was very upset with profound knowledge, and he had a crush on Buddha, so he presentation to the Prime Minister, about the value of Kinh-Lang-Nghiem that he was miraculously born.
The Prime Minister-General Phong-dung heard and was very happy and supposed to have an unprecedented treasure. But when he took out the silk scroll, because he had been stuck on it for a long time, he lost his words.
One lady who had great merit in this, was the Lady of the Prime Minister Phong-dung. She took that silk and cooked it with a chemical substance, then the blood of the hat followed the water to melt away.
The Prime Minister-Prime Minister invited Mr. Bat-Thich-Mat-De to translate the Sanskrit word into Chinese characters. Mr. Di-Gia-Thích-Ca translated words, also the Prime Minister-profits. Therefore, Kinh-Lang-Nghiêm not only has very good meanings, but literature is wonderful! In the past, scholars, not only in Buddhism, but also Confucianism, literary giants, paid attention to Kinh-Lang-Nghiem, admired and extremely praised the noble meaning, and literature. marvelous sutra.
As usual, every year until the full moon day of the seventh month, the day of the full moon, the monks and nuns in four order, in order to wash away bad acts and bad thoughts, for the world to be pure, because of the three saints. ending lower settlements, monks increase the body and mind, cultivate the virtue, accumulate merit, so on the end of summer, the lay Buddhists are racing to buy mussels, sometimes like mourning to worship It seems, to plant goodness.
That day, in order to attract the most of Tien-Hoang, the King of Persia bought a lot of fine religious dishes, and the king himself went to the Buddha and monks to make offerings.
That same day, the heads of the yogis and the laity all bought enough vegetarian food, also invited monks to make offerings. Buddha told Mr. Van-enemy to divide, to go to each house to worship.
In the meantime, Mr. A-nan, who had received his first request, should return in time to attend to them.
He brought the bowl to the city, stately, i tedious, the slow way, through each house to another. With an equal mind, he wanted to do merit for everyone, regardless of nobility or popular class. He only wished to meet those who did not know how to do merit, today offered to make offerings, so that they could be planted with healthy seeds, many days later to bear fruit.
Because equal compassion did not choose, he sequentially passed through the villages. Unfortunately, he met a pagan woman named Ma-Dang-Gia, using magical art as the god of Ta-Pi-Ca-La-Tien-Brahma, caught in the room, used sweet words and caresses carelessly, forcing me to love! ...
Ananda in distress, very sad! He folded his hands to recite the Buddha's name, turned to the Buddha and asked for help! ... The Buddha knew that Ananda was in trouble, so when he finished the sermon, he could not return to the sermon, he immediately returned to the monastery to sit cross-legged, so the radiant liberation had thousands of wings. , saying mantras Lang-Nghiem ( every night the temples chant).
The Buddha told Ngo Van-enemy to bring that mantra to the place of Ma-Dang-nothing, to eliminate evil, save A-nan.
When An-na was freed, went to the Buddha's place, bowed his head, bowed and bowed, was sad, cried and said:
- ?? Bach The Ton! Since when have I depend on you: I am the younger brother of the Buddha, loved by the Buddha, surely the Buddha will give me the wisdom, or the result of Bodhi, so I will take care of my studies. reciting, not sure whoever cultivates, even though you are the younger brother of Buddha, if you do not cultivate, you will fall down like anyone; Studying a lot without practicing, it's no use! Bowing to the Dragon Buddha, being compassionate, teach me any method that the ten directions of the Buddhas to practice can be attained.
At that time, Buddha consoled Ananda and promised to teach the austerities method to attain enlightenment, which is Kinh-Lang-Nghiem. This sutta is sufficient for:
"Economic great Buddha Danh, As-hybrid honey, tu willow willow, the Bodhisattva of great wealth, Thu Lang-Nghiem"; referred to as "the Prime Minister-Lang-Nghiem" is the economic talk about feet.
a.- Because this sutta is very valuable, it is rare but difficult to meet, Hinayana-vipāka and vajrayana Bodhisattva power cannot be comprehended, such as the Buddha's "Infinitely beautiful" form. Because this general is very precious and hard to see, the ordinary and Second-vehicle hanhg cannot see.
b.- Ten directions of the Buddha were according to this sutta that made the cultivating place a successful enlightenment, so it was called "Tathagata honey".
c.- Y follow this business practice and evidence, the new evidence of that evidence is the final, should call that "tu evidence willow".
d.- The Bodhisattvas of the six hundred continents practice everything according to this sutta, so this sutta is also called "the Bodhisattvas of great happiness".
đ.- In summary, "Thủ Lăng Nghiêm", Tau translates as "Great permanent fortification". Meaning that the true nature of mind available to all beings and the Buddhas, it covers the whole universe, so called "Dai". The mind is often pure President does not expect-dynamic should call that "concentration". It has not been changed by time, or the space has been moved, ever since then, as always, in places where there is no more holiness, neither on earth nor on, as motionless, so called "Kien try. ”
The word “Kinh” in the narrow sense is the only straight line, that is, the guard line in the canvas. The cloth, thanks to the threaded line, draws the horizontal threads into a new cloth.
In the broadest sense, the word "sutta" is the string of words and meanings of the sage-sage into a book or a set.
In Buddhism or in real life, there are scriptures. But Buddhist scriptures have the word "star", so it is different from scriptures in the world.
The word "star" "means:
a.- base of the level of beings.
b.- Reasonable truth.
The word ?? kinh ?? meaning "the dharma school", is an unchanging truth: the Buddha said the dharma in the past, the Buddha said the same in the present, and the Buddha was born saying the same thing, should be called "often France ”.
To be more precise:
"This sutta is our mind".
a.- We have a pure, pure, and immovable mind, and that's where we have "Thu Lang-Nghiem".
b.-Y following this foot that initiates the continental six degrees of happiness of the Bodhisattva, then it is where we have "Bodhisattvas of great happiness".
c.- Y according to the feet that cultivate, and also according to this foot that evidence, evidence like that is the ultimate, should be called "tu evidence willow".
d.- We take this heart to do a religious practice, will be a Buddha, so called "As-hybrid honey Nhon".
đ.- This mind is very precious, the sublime, Theravada and the Bodhisattva redundant powers are incompetent, so for example, the Buddha's "formless comments". Our hearts cover the whole universe, all things not outside our feet, that is the meaning of the word "sutra".
The ten main headings of this sutta: "Great Buddha, Tathagata, Willow, Willow, Bodhisattva, Virtue Bodhisattva, Bodhisattva-Sutra", have included the entire sutta, which is the doctrine, doctrine, , almond, fruit, great body, general and great use, are all over the territory, but ultimately only in our own hearts ready. Because of this enlightenment, Germany Lu-Hui said:
No doubt his inherently pure mind
No doubt his mind was not born
No doubt my heart is ready enough
No doubt his mind does not budge
No doubt his mind or birth to France.
Read the headings only 19 words, we found it was fun, because it is where we have available "Great Buddha, Tathagata, tu willow, willow, Buddhas, Bodhisattvas of thousands, Lang-Nghiem ”. Just because we are ignorant, we do not receive our Surangama Sutra. But it also does not take, when enlightened will become Buddha.
The content of the Shurangama Sutra is that the Buddha only taught us to realize our feet. We do not realize the feet should have forever eternal beings, deep in the sea of birth and death, not knowing how much suffering. As for Buddha escaping from samsara, being free of liberation, supernormal freedom, wisdom and so on, etc., because they were enlightened to the heart, should be like that.
Telling to understand: Buddha and beings still have a single nature, but they have completely enlightened to that nature, so they became Buddha. On the contrary, sentient beings because of the unconscious nature of the mind, should be born in samsara. If sentient beings are enlightened, they will be like Buddha.
Mr. An-nan asked the Buddha to teach any method that the ten directions of the Buddhas cultivated and witnessed, the Buddha taught, he must realize "Chon Chon". If enlightened mind is feet, then become a Buddha. Enlightenment is feet, like people still dreaming. This is the only method by which the ten Buddhist practices have been enlightened.
