MAINTAINING THE LIBRARY (PART 13)


May the fourth, "repentance karma"
We must first state clearly what is called karma. Karma is an artifact, not only do evil have barriers, but also good barriers. Do your evil results in three ways: hell, hungry ghosts, animals; If you do good, your retribution in three good way: heaven, human realm, realm A Tu La. In a sentence, you can not get out of the three realms, so how do we do it? The Buddha teaches us to be pure karma, all evil all tu good, no attachment, that is pure business. Prior to this, the industry is not net, the birth of obstacles, so the industry is creating. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Vow Bon spoken well, we can not but acknowledge that the scriptures say: " we Jambudvipa launch anniversary centromeres are creating crime ". Why? You think, there are beings that start thinking mind not because "me ". I am sinful, I am karma. Every thought is for me. Perhaps for new initiates to hear this way of saying on the Buddhist doctrine will not be anything, from ancient to now in the country outside, there is no one for the " me ". Chinese folk also have the proverb: " He is not because of heaven and earth eliminated ." It seems that starting mindfulness because we are considered by everyone to be natural, not because we can be considered as human? Correct! Not because we are not considered human. They are the Buddha, the Bodhisattva, they are absolutely not human. So when it is just " me " that is honest people, people of the six realms can not get out.
Why should the Buddha say this, we must understand his mind. Buddha said: " All beings have true legs ," this body is false, not the foot. The new samsara in the six realms, and the foot of the fall is not reincarnation. Not only not reincarnated six realms but even ten legal world is not. Where are they falling? The body falls in the first realm of Truth. In the sutras say, the Buddha has three bodies, each of us also has three bodies, the body of our body is the body. So the Buddhist scriptures say, " Every person practicing cultivation to the relative level of proof of the legal bar himself ." Pure Dharma body is really me. Zen often says, "Hyung before the birth of his parents", The face before the birth of the parent is the legal bar, the Chinese capital Strictly called the price of the Buddha. Bhikkhu is not human, but our true self. Our true name is Vipassana.
Bồ Lò Giá Na is Sanskrit, meaning it is " bosses everywhere ", not always there, nowhere. If this place does not have legs to fall, this body also can not show money. Assassinated grandfather on the fall leg that was born. This self is the body, the nature. Dependent on the true nature that the general. So the right foot falls, because all beings are lost in the fall of the new fall into a phu. Me is not lost, it is lost, it is just lost, because of love? Bring this false figure from the true nature to the false poses. Huayen said: " idealistic appearance" That mind is real, the true heart is the true self, the legal body appears to assume. You accept the general, damage is broken in this place. Actually, you do not know what it is. You accept the pretense of Prime Minister and let it be true, so it means bringing out the true nature, bring the hypocrite look honest. You distinguish, attach to the new one to turn into complicated circumstances, turn into ten legal world, into six realms, into three lines, why change? Subjective change. Huayanese concretely said: " hope, distinction, attachment is the way ". At present we all have the idea, distinction, attachment, so the Dharma Realtors turn into six realms of samsara.
If we are in one of the three categories, we leave the attachment, that is, in all worldly dharmas, worldly dharma, no real attachments, please tell them, there will be no six the realm. The six realms are attachments to the manifest. Prior to no longer, you immediately transcend the six realms. Because you have the mind to distinguish light heavyweight so there are legal four saints " Thanh Van, Prongs, Bodhisattvas, Buddha . Your mind is very different, you are Thanh Van, Duyen Giac; Your mind is very light, you are the legal Bodhisattva, Buddha. Ten legal world by the way out. When the distinction is no longer the transcendence of the ten legal world, you can " Reproof reverted. Outline the foot ". This place is called the Truth Truth.
In the first truth, the Bodhisattva of the Bodhisattva is not the same. Avalokitesvara said, 41 great legal status, Buddha, Bodhisattva, low level is divided into 41 class. Where did this 41 come from? From hope. The one in the Truth Truth also has delusions, but you must know, they have no distinction, no attachment, and the idea is relatively light. The thought is also called ignorance. If the end of ignorance, the end of 41 items of ignorance, you immediately prove the salvation of fullness, the leg of his self completely restored fullness, " the current status of fullness ," that main is a Buddhist teacher. At this point we just think of two sentences on the Surangama: " Bodhi Compassion, Qui Vo ". "Full Bodhi"Is to restore your own character, absolutely nothing you have.
Therefore, the Buddha tells us, " There is a 'ta' in the mind-set . " Ta " is the attachment of solidity, just have this kind of attachment, you can not go out of the three realms are not out of samsara. So that is sin, is evil. Having " me " is sin, it is evil. Lake all living beings have serious attachments of "my ", so love was too heavy. This is your body attachment we then had enough negativity already, let alone the additional attachments " My", Such as my house, my money, my dependence ..., when the ordained, my director, so worrying? This body pulls a heap of possessions, how can we get three realms? Amitabha Buddha wants to drag you to the Western World of Ultimate Bliss as well because the things you drag behind are too heavy.
So the Buddha taught us to discharge: to let go, must give, must discharge. First, discharge all that we own, discharge the object outside the body. Then let go of the attachment. You are on the path of Bodhi no obstacles. Therefore, the " mind-centered mindset is creating sin ", the main principle here, thousand times should not be deceived by these illusory generals. You can see truthful truthfulness, which is called penetrating. However, our ordinary life from eternity to now, eternal life incarnated in the assumptions, we have to reincarnate six realms with the number of times can not be whore, so the gas extremely deep, trouble Brain for many generations to bring life, heavy karma. Therefore, the Buddha taught us to practice repentance, eliminate karma.
Self afflictions are obstacles, obstacles Nirvana, that is disturbance. Neighborhood is also a barrier, obstacle Bodhi. Nibbana is Sanskrit, the meaning of non-birth. We are not inherently not kill, but the present is born there kill, because you have the barrier of non-immortality of Nibbana, so non-immortal birth to kill, extremely unhappy. All living beings are born, there are birth and death so they have defilements. When the end of affliction, the birth is no longer. In other words, there is no birth, again with inherently not born without death.
The problem is the knowledge that obstructs the wisdom of Bat Nha fully in your nature. Kinh Nghiem said: " All beings have the wisdom of the General Tathagata" General is Nirvana, not birth not kill. We have ideas, there is insight, our wisdom Bat Nha no longer. It is obstructed, transformed into a wrong view. Ideological interpretation is completely contrary to the truth of truth because it has non-human market, the greedy greed, making the General turned into samsara, turning into general beings of the ten legal world. This truth if not the Buddha then nobody knows. All religionists, philosophers, scientists of the world have no way to tell the truth of this truth. So the Sun appeared in the world to bring the truth of the birthplace because we say.
So how do we restore our back ground? How to restore the wisdom of our Lord fullness? Studying the most important Buddha with Pho Hien is the method of practicing the salvation of the fullness. Using the present word, he mentions ten platforms for the way we live, cultivating respect for all sentient beings, with people with respectable deeds and ceremonies; We must praise, in accordance with the nature of moral behavior, we must praise, do not correspond to the character of the moral not praise, 53 in the participant in Huayan has a clear example. Third is " offering offerings"This, if only two hours lecture is certainly not enough. Flower Adornment, the sixth chapter of the lecture on the subject, French lawyers, helpless, I lecture for a year, how can fake. Because we do not really understand, the day of passing the script so that the monks do not know where to start, let's say I'm not bad, but in fact far away from the standard Buddha said.
Our gas karma is too heavy, we have to admit, must confirm can change. Success change, merit will be very defeated, holy people of our world often say, " Man is not sage, then do not fault ." There are mistakes that do not worry, the Bodhisattva Buddhists all praise, why? Because the Buddha Bodhisattva before the Buddha also have countless mistakes, but they can change to become the Buddha Bodhisattva, the ancient Buddhist praised. Today we can also change our self-refreshing, evil evangelism, all Buddhas Bodhisattvas will praise us. Change first at the religious section.
Penitent. Repentance is the Sanskrit, translated minus the " thunder ", Chinese people should abandon sound like simple tail, only one negative " repentance ". Chinese characters have a close meaning to this word as " repentance, " which means remorse. So the prosecutor to translate the business immediately bring these two words together called " repentance ", this word is Buddhist scriptures called Sanskrit syntax, the word Sanskrit, the word after the Chinese. The meaning of the word self is to make mistakes but have the courage to tell people. The meaning of Chinese repentance is not going to go wrong again, just as the Confucian said " not too delicate ", the fault only once, no second, if there is a second amendment. , and self-renewal, this is called true repentance.
Today, a lot of fellow initiates of the Buddha learned to hear the word " Samantabhadavatthu ", or " Chám deduction of karma ", then think of the worship of the Emperor, Emperor, Waterborne, or a resident. Prayer of Great Compassion, Pure Land, Holy Flower, French Flower, etc. So your sin can be deducted all or not? If you just bowed to the Emperor Huang, the crime is immediately deducted, so very effective. But if after the bow is still can not be deducted, then you know the problem. The problem is not wrong in the method, Luong Hoang Dam, Thuy Sam, all the penalties are not wrong because they are all the old pagan ancestors based on the scriptures, which are the quintessence in business You can not do wrong. False in that we do not understand the law, just take the suspicion and then scanned. The old saying "Sore mouth is just wasted, "one side of the chase still face a head. Every day there are a thousand stamping rice like rice is not changing, not useful. So how to cheat? " Depending on the text ," according to the text, change your wrong idea, that is genuine repentance. The old saying, except for karma, there are three types.
The first one is "Revamped" . We can put down our karma, which is relatively easy. In fact, today we recite Buddha's name, maintain the name of the Buddha, each sentence is a letter to the industry. If the teachings are taught, all the disciplines are repenting. The word " penitentiary " all the Buddhist methods of Buddhism, only different in the way of repentance, the direction, principles, principles are the same. We use " recite the Buddha " to practice repentance. Bodhisattva Great teaches us how to recite the Buddha " photographed all six bases, pure contemplation" You recite the Buddha's name, elaborate progress, can immediately submit to his own karma. After the clothing industry life reborn. If you can not surrender karma, even if you recite the Buddha sentence can not be reborn, the ancient people called " One day to recite ten thousand Buddha sentence, mouth sore throat only to lose , can not be reborn. Why? You can not surrender defilements. I can create a career today, the past karma can take away, the current karma can not carry, must understand this doctrine.
If you can find the Buddha's work can be defilement, the practice of reciting the Buddha's name we call " elaborate block ". Afflictive, it does not work. Afflictions cause? Seeing the pleasures, arising up craving, mind attachment. At that time " Amitabha Buddha! ", Causing the greedy mind to crush down," Amitabha Buddha "the mind is crushed down again, called elaborately. Or encounter things that do not meet the eye, defilement arisTe, the heart of hate, " Amitabha Buddha! "Back down hat anger, so" Amitabha Buddha! Amitabha Buddha!", Always push it down, do not let it start. This is called nembutsu. Nembutsu not sing, singing to Buddha Amitabha heard. As soon as your mind is not born, it may not be necessary to recite the Buddha because then your mind is pure. As soon as the mind is moving, it should hurry to recite Amitabha Buddha, make your mind disturbance gas, " angry people love sex " all down, not let it start, this is the method except for offensive karmic obesity.
Pure Land Buddhism we do the same, the Buddha often said " not afraid of concept start, only fear of slow ." Mindfulness is the disturbing current, but why not fear? You will definitely start running, because if you do not start then you are the Bodhisattva Buddha. It is a certain pheasant will initiate the action, the problem is in the fast or slow. Enlightenment then the mesmerizing, this sense is the progressive delegates of our elaborate. Enlightenment is the Buddha's first sentence to make afflictions suffer. Everyone must know this concept, elaborately used to be born power, is the first Mind Disorder.
The most psychic Loveliness deep and very low, not only Ly Nhat Tam, the first Mind. Saying the unruffled consistency, the Four Noble Eightfold Paths belong to the Unmistakable Mind, so the Unbounded Mind is at least eight levels because Four Four Paths have eight levels. If it is said in accordance with the Bodhisattva Bodhisattva, that one is the Bodhisattva of the Cross, from the mind to the decimal ten class, elaborately differentiated shallow not different. Thus, the highest level of the class is higher than the one that Ly has the most righteousness. In other words, Ly has the same 41 levels of deep shallow depths, and at the same time proved the unity of mind. Bodhisattva, the Bodhisattva card, the Bodhisattva loss credibility, the same time The same mental disorder is not the same disorder. By this can know, elaborately into each of us will also be deeply depleted together.
