The Essence of the Shurangama Sutra. In fact, in order to understand Buddhist scriptures well, we need to know how the mind is structured. It is most obvious when reading the Shurangama Sutra, which teaches in detail the relations of the six senses, the six senses, and the six senses, the changing and unreal relative realities, as well as the eternal and unchanging absolute reality. . The essence of the Shurangama Sutra is explained by the Buddha as to what is Vong Tam and True Mind, as well as the Dharma Gate of Surangama Dai Dinh. Consciousness or six-consciousness is the combination of the six-consciousness with the new-ground six-consciousness. Again, Luc Enter capital is Tathagata Tang, is also the true nature of the like. Luc Enter, Buddha pointed out: - Again, Ananda! Why do you say that Luc Enter the capital Tathagata Tibet, which is also the true nature of the like? To take an example, the Eye of the Unborn Capital, - For example, using the eyes to look at one place completely, for a long time, self-fatigue, both the eye and that fatigue, are all signs of longing and fatigue of the Bodhi nature. Due to two types of ceiling, Light and Dark appear the view, collect the scene, called the nature of seeing, this view leaves Light and Dark, which has no self-nature. - Ananda should know! This vision does not come from light or dark, does not come out of the eye, nor does it come out of nowhere. Why? If it comes out from the light, then when it's dark, the ants have followed the light, and they shouldn't be able to see the dark; If it comes out from the dark, then when it's light, the ants must follow the darkness and die, and they shouldn't be able to see the light. If from the eye, there is no light or dark, then you know that there is no self-nature. If you come out of the void, then look out to see the ceiling, turn around and see the eyes again, what does the void have to do with your entry? So know that the Eye Enters false hope, which is neither the predestined nature nor the natural nature. -The nature of the original consciousness is clear, (the inherently clear enlightenment is enlightenment, distinguishing without being able to deal with it is the true consciousness), miraculous enlightenment, as immovable, immeasurable, full of dharma realms, manifesting in all ten directions, nowhere where there is a land, depending on one's karma sentient beings manifest the realms of existence. People in the world do not know, and mistakenly think that nature is predestined and natural, which is all due to the discriminating mind. Any words that have no real meaning. So, the emptiness is all-pervasive, which is not shaken. You should know that the pre-ground, water, fire, wind, and space are called the Five Greats, and they are all Tathāgatas, which are not born and destroyed. (Book three, HT. Thich Duy Luc translated) From Luc Enter to the twelve origin, eighteen precepts with seven great capitals that are unborn and interrelated with each other, Buddha has clearly outlined the stream of consciousness (six roots, six senses, six consciousnesses) together with earth, water, fire, wind, space, knowledge, and consciousness) thus illusory, then awareness (wonderful nature like) is synonymous with Tathagata Tripitaka. Tathagata Tripitaka, the intellectual consciousness of the true consciousness. Knowing clearly the true consciousness means that the original nature is intelligent, leaving the ability to deal with, permanent, displayed throughout the ten directions, as vast as endless space. For example, Enter the false hope, which is not the predestined nature, nor the natural nature. Because what becomes "Eye Consciousness" is established by the harmony of Eye Base and Form Tran, is Consciousness, which is the void sign of Sac Tran. The void form of Form Tran is acquired by the Consciousness to enter the Tathagata Tripitaka or Endless Void, although that space body is also the same nature of endless space, but it is still limited to the Eye faculty. So, when the eye faculty has not yet integrated into the Tathagata Tripitaka, it is a sign of emptiness, which changes depending on the inherent karma of the Sac Tran itself. We have observed that no matter exists independently, whether it is as small as a particle or as large as a mountain. Things exist only relatively, in relation to other things. It is also possible to know that Consciousness has no substance. If the object is not real, the mind that perceives it is also not real. These moments of knowledge over time it pull and struggle between mind and consciousness into thought, and if that moment of knowledge does not repeat and separates immediately (timeless) then we have original knowledge. Water. Because the voidness of the object enters into the infinite voidness, that Reality is all-encompassing, the ultimate truth. So, once the Eye-Faculty integrates into the Tathagatagarbha, there is no longer any ability, then there is neither cause nor effect, but there is a wonderful true nature, which is the Enlightenment or the Nature of Endless Void, which is due to the correlation. so each other. Indeed, for us to clearly understand the mind and the true mind or the wonderful nature of the true mind, and the distinction between the false mind and the true mind, it is very easy to practice the method of Surangama Dai Dinh. Analyzing the Consciousness and Chan Tam through the combination of the six senses, the six senses and the six senses, which are interrelated, we see: Even entering the Tathagatagarbha, they are already empty. As it is known in the Buddhist sutras, "The Six Entry, which is the Tathagata, is also the Noble Truth of Chan Such". Each sense of consciousness can be the emptiness of space or the general of space, when entering the Tathagata Tripitaka (Endless Void or Boundless Boundary Void), it will turn into Wonderful Nature Chan Nhu (Enlightenment). For example, the eye entering the illusion is not inherently predestined nor natural. Because the eye-sense can be empty, in accordance with the space-body of the Form-ceiling, and is absorbed by the mind by seeing-nature, we have either Eye-Consciousness or Mind-Consciousness. The void body of the eye, form or eye consciousness is illusory and changes according to the sense sense (because it is limited to the senses, we can call the space of the senses "Limited Void"), but the nature is Seeing the birth and death of the wonderful mind that is clear, permanent, and full throughout the world in accordance with the Tathagata Tripitaka is "Endless Void". Voidness is endlessly all-pervasive, which does not move. It should be known that the present earth, water, fire, wind and space are called the Five Great Elements, the nature is perfect, they are all Tathāgatas, which do not arise and die. Understanding the Enlightenment, "we use the imperishable nature of the wonderful mind of clarity and clarity with the Tathagatagarbha, because the Tathagatagarbha has only one bright, round, and wonderful mind that radiates throughout the Dharma Realm, so in it, one is immeasurable, immeasurable is one, in the small appear large, in the large appear small, the ashram does not move but throughout the ten directions, consciousness is like a flower puzzle in the air. Ananda, developed by the ceiling, because the root of seeing the sign, the view, and the sign have no self-nature, like reeds put together, let you now establish the view of knowledge and understanding, that is, the basis of ignorance, if for knowledge does not accept knowledge (Knowing the view = Knowledge), that is Nirvana, pure and unstained, how can there be other things in it. When deciding to practice, you must clearly listen to the Buddha's teaching: Buddha told Ananda: - People often listen to me explain the three meanings that determine the practice in the Vinaya: Nie mind becomes precepts, from precepts to birth, and from concentration to develop. wisdom, called three non-contraband. - Ananda! How is sesshin called gender? If the sentient beings of the six paths in the world do not have lustful minds, they will not follow the continuum of birth and death. - A person with right concentration, in order to get out of the prison, if his lustful mind is not eliminated, he cannot get out. Even if there is much meditative wisdom in the present, if you don't cut off sex, you will fall into a demonic path. The upper class will become a demon king, the middle class will become a demonic spirit, and the lower class will become a witch. The other ghosts also have their followers, each claiming to have attained the unsurpassed Way. After the extinction of the Buddha, in the Dharma-ending age, these ghosts are active in the world, pervading sexual desire, claiming to be Good and Knowledgeable. , causing sentient beings to fall into the tunnel of love, and lose the way of Bodhi. The Buddha's teaching is very reasonable, let's try to look at Freud's psychology, Sex, or Lust. While Freud planned the regions of Mind, he tried to identify methods of energyizing, focusing, moving, and even blocking the flash of consciousness. Freud chose the body to continuously produce mental energy, as well as the generator to continuously produce electricity. Freud called this mental energy sex and he believed it to be the driving force behind the faculties of all of our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Sexual construction creates a distressing state that forces us to become aware of some unfulfilled need. We then aim to focus on the activities that will give us the release of that repressed energy and reduce the tendency. Thus sexual energy affects our Thoughts, emotions, and activities. (Reality and Chi Dao, 2002, Universal Moon) Lust or lust exists permanently in our body like that, so how should we stabilize it as Buddha told us to keep this precept carefully, then full awareness can be found. Redefining, Anti-Text Nature: If we accept what we hear as being true, we must listen from the outside and listen inside. Do not listen to movement must listen to silence. Hear inside, outside, move, and be still. All is to leave the root according to the top, so it is called the crazy hearing. Turn this crazy hearing back to the right, the main is not capable of writing, the department, ie the original face of the item, is also this nature, then it becomes immeasurable Bodhi. Indeed, recalling the second book, the Buddha clearly stated that the two words 'view' means to see what is seen, because seeing is only the mind knowing (Wisdom) the seeing of the mind is that we have already turned consciousness into wisdom, because the original view awareness is not in the disease (capacity) is called ant , ie 'nature, but still has to leave the view (due to separation or incompetent ant) ​​to keep the full enlightenment. Indeed, through the view of absolute truth, at first, the Buddha used seeing through eye consciousness to say it was true mind, but later he confirmed that seeing is not true mind because seeing is perceived by perception. awake, so the object perceived by the senses is a simulated reality. So the Buddha and Bodhisattva reconfirmed as in the nature of hearing, "Listen again to your Hearing nature or see again your Seeing nature." It is the perception of reality through the nature of hearing or seeing, and so are the other doors. Remember: "Consciously perceiving the first consciousness of the world, we have the true consciousness (also belonging to the mind); then we perceive that consciousness, then we have Primordial Knowledge and leave it immediately (timeless) "That Primitive Knowledge or Chan Tri, also called Chon Tam or Ban Giac. For example, when we see a cow (seeing this is Consciousness), we know that there is the nature of seeing, which immediately separates from that knowing. For the six worlds we act like this, but when the mind wanders or thinks something, we know it's consciousness, stop leaving it. This is called "Nature Anti-Text," Or the Static. It must be remembered: The seeing nature, the hearing nature, the smelling nature, the tasting nature, the touching nature, and the mind nature are the six consciousnesses or consciousness. Knowing (Cognize) and Consciousness (Perception) can have Cognition or Cognition, because there are times when the mind is not called Usual Cognition or Common Mind, because Consciousness and Consistency: Thought. Pure Cognition is the use of True Mind, timeless. The Dharma Gate of the Surangama Dai Dinh is a method of Static Enlightenment in the four positions. In volumes seven, eight, nine and ten in the Diamond Sutra, the Buddha teaches the practice of Surangama and outlines the harmful effects that must be avoided or the strict precepts. Cultivation of Surangama Dai Dinh is the ultimate method like Zen of Don Ngo, but it can be practiced in the four positions. Cultivation of the Three Demons Ground is a wonderful practice with a constant concentration of mind and a continuous non-reversal. In the way of sesshin, those who seek the Bodhi path must first keep the law of doubt as clear as ice and snow, keep the precepts without omitting, and the mind is not predestined to follow the six objects, then how can all the demons arise. The people who practice the Tam Ma Dia, must first stop lustful, the Buddha said: – Ananda! If you don't stop lustful and practice meditation, it's like cooking sand and wanting to become rice, even after a hundred thousand kalpas, it's just hot sand. Why? Because sand is not rice. If the body lusts to seek the miraculous fruit of the Buddha, even if he is enlightened, it is just the root of lust; If the root has become adulterous, one must drift in the three evil paths, unable to escape, so how can one practice Nirvana! It is necessary to make the body and mind completely stop the lust, even the end will not exist, to be able to hope to attain Bodhi. - Ten realms of meditation appear because of Chiang Am and use the mind to fight with each other, but beings are ignorant, do not examine themselves carefully, encounter this condition but do not know it themselves, say it is witness, become a great false speech. , hell A Pi. In short, the Buddha's words have no illusions. The Buddha taught clearly and in great detail about Mind. Should carefully distinguish what is false mind, and true mind, dynamic and pure. The nature of the six senses, the six senses, and the sign of emptiness are indeed available, and exist simultaneously in space, and there are no major causes and conditions, nor are they naturally acquired by the six senses or consciousness; Because when the six senses and the six senses are in harmony with each other, it is not natural for us to grasp the original sense, but we must perceive the mind that is in harmony with the naked sense. In the Shurangama Sutra, the Buddha's purpose is to show the congregation that everyone has a clear awareness, called Tanh Giac Dieu Minh (Dieu Tanh Chan Nhu) or Tathagata Tang or Chan Tam ... Six roots are the root of reincarnation, The six senses are also the root of liberation. In the view of the six senses, following discrimination is the root of ignorance, in the view of non-discrimination is Nirvana. That is the way back to Awareness. So Tu Witness Thu Thuong Nghiem Dai Dinh, according to HT. Thich Hue Hung's translation is reasonable, "Besides, the scene is the dharma, the mind is born and the mind is separate, the scene and the mind cannot be separated, but they consider themselves pure. If there is an exit or entry, they are all subtly distinguished, only relying on that subtle distinction to maintain the other tranquil scene, once no longer distinguishing, the scene of samadhi will be lost, called exiting concentration. -That's the cause of trying to force the mind to arise and die to settle down, the truth has not been enlightened to the available unmoving true mind, and has mistakenly assumed that it is true. - Cultivation of DIVIGHT TOTALLY can't be like that." Therefore, practicing Shurangama as a practitioner, must keep strict precepts, especially the mind is not lustful, or only mind mantras, that is, when chanting mantras silently, We know that there is mindfulness, or false consciousness, in the four postures, always in peace. The Buddha first taught the Samadhi meditation method, called the Great Buddha's Head, Surangama King, which is a wonderful and dignified way, also a dharma. subject leading to the final liberation of the ten directions Tathagata sentient beings from beginningless beginning to the present, birth and death continuously, just because they do not know the true mind of permanent standing, pure and clear nature, again depending on false thoughts, false ideas. there should be no reincarnation. The Buddhas of the ten directions and the same path are separated from birth and death by direct thought, because their minds and actions are upright, so from beginning to end, to the steps, in the middle, there are no crooked signs. So: - Right knowledge of the wrong knowledge of the host and guest (dualism) is the liberation of all afflictions, intertwining causes and conditions, also self-awareness and enlightenment. - The journey to the true essence is the "Lighting up" in each moment of living mindfully with "Ordinary mind", at ease. – Grasping the true reality of all things is the transcendence of time and space, making the Mind become pure and peaceful, ie freeing suffering, samsara's cause and effect. like that from beginning to end, down to the steps, in the middle there are no crooked signs. So: - Knowledge of the right knowledge of the wrong knowledge of the host and guest (dualism) is the liberation of all afflictions, intertwining causes and conditions, also self-awareness and enlightenment. – The journey to the true essence is the "Light of Existence" in each moment of living mindfully with "Ordinary Mind", at ease. – Grasping the true nature of all things is the transcendence of time and space, making the Mind become pure and serene, ie freeing suffering, samsara. like that from beginning to end, down to the steps, in the middle there are no crooked signs. So: - Knowledge of the right knowledge of the wrong knowledge of the host and guest (dualism) is the liberation of all afflictions, intertwining causes and conditions, also self-awareness and enlightenment. – The journey to the true essence is the "Light of Existence" in each moment of living mindfully with "Ordinary Mind", at ease. – Grasping the true nature of all things is the transcendence of time and space, making the Mind become pure and serene, ie freeing suffering, samsara. - The right knowledge of the wrong knowledge of the host and guest (dualism) is the liberation of all afflictions, interlaced causes and conditions, also self-awareness and enlightenment. – The journey to the true essence is the "Light of Existence" in each moment of living mindfully with "Ordinary Mind", at ease. – Grasping the true nature of all things is the transcendence of time and space, making the Mind become pure and serene, ie freeing suffering, samsara. - The right knowledge of the wrong knowledge of the host and guest (dualism) is the liberation of all afflictions, interlaced causes and conditions, also self-awareness and enlightenment. – The journey to the true essence is the "Light of Existence" in each moment of living mindfully with "Ordinary Mind", at ease. – Grasping the true nature of all things is the transcendence of time and space, making the Mind become pure and serene, ie freeing suffering, samsara. in each moment live still with "normal mind", at ease. – Grasping the true reality of all things is the transcendence of time and space, making the Mind become pure and peaceful, ie freeing suffering, samsara's cause and effect. in each moment live still with "normal mind", at ease. – Grasping the true reality of all things is the transcendence of time and space, making the Mind become pure and peaceful, ie freeing suffering, samsara's cause and effect.END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=BUDDHIST DHARMA WHEEL GOLDEN MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.14/9/2022.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.
