- Hey Thien nam! These are the 25 practices of the Bodhisattva. So the Bodhisattvas must follow this practice.

If current Bodhisattvas and sentient beings want to follow these 25 dharma practices, they must keep their precepts clean, their minds quiet and undergo 21 days of repentance, then write 25 dharma this subject on each piece of paper, carefully sealed, put on the Buddha table and solemnly plead, and then arbitrarily withdraw a piece of paper, when opening it, the practitioner will know his or her level of cultivation or cutting . But if the practitioner a doubtful concept, then no achievement.

THE SOLUTION

This paragraph the Buddha ended and taught: These are the 25 practices of the Bodhisattva. If someone wants to practice the 25 dharma, it is essential to keep the precepts for the body and mind to be pure and to pray for repentance for 21 days. Then the practitioner wrote the name of this 25 dharma practice on 25 pieces of paper, packed separately from the piece, put them together on the table. Practitioners must be sincere in prayer, then arbitrarily draw a visit, after turning to see, practitioners will know their roots or shop and must follow that practice. But if one has a doubtful thought, it will not achieve.

In summary, these 25 practices are not apart from Dinh, Hue and Dinh Hue; Only according to the level of the practitioner has deep, high and low, so sometimes it is necessary to practice Dinh and Quan later; sometimes we have to practice Quan before, then Dinh; sometimes we have to practice at the same time, etc. Because depending on the level of the practitioner, changing from the front to the back, turning back into 25 dharma. So practitioners should depend on their level of practice.

Ten directions of Tathagata

And practitioners three generations

This subject is subject to medical practice

But to become Bodhi.

Except for the enlightened one,

And those who do not believe

Not following this method.

And all the Bodhisattvas

And the sentient beings later,

Must be like austerities.

Thanks to the Buddha's compassion,

THE SOLUTION

The intention of this verse says: The pure and unobtrusive wisdom of the Bodhisattvas is born of Zen. Meditation is Chi, Quan and Only Quan song tu. Because according to the root of the practitioner has not cut and shop, so the three are divided into 25 measures.
