MAINTAINING THE VOLUNTEERS (PART 59)

Fourth Kind, First All

The ultimate goal in the end is the First One, helping them become Buddhas. To be a good person, to be blessed people is not bad, but not life, because he must also die. Because life is not long so your blessing is not long. How can learn to not die, not born, not kill? How can preserve your riches thousand years, permanently unbroken? Then do the Buddha. Not doing this Buddha can not do. The ultimate goal is to help them become Buddhas. You see, the Buddha's method of magic! Use this method to build relationships with people, relationships between people and people. If we prefer, we prefer, then we avoid, this is the first stage. Buddhist Bodhisattva help beings, the fact that it is very good, If this man can not turn his whole life, what should he do? Buddha is patient, waiting for them in the next life. Life after not turning back, Buddha Bodhisattva still have the patience to wait for their next life, "Buddha meditation indifferent the most human," so you know the great blessings of the Buddha's Daughter for beings Nothing compares, no one can compare. The Buddha caring for any living being is an eternal life, never to be let go.

Perhaps someone said, I do not see the Bodhisattva Buddha to protect me? In fact, the Bodhisattva Buddha day is around you, you do not feel it. Buddha Bodhisattva is still protecting you, is still taking care of you, yourself why not emotion? Because karma is too heavy, not to listen to the words, not to study effort, so the blessings of the Bodhisattva Buddha to you, on the business called vigilance, is not self-respect, OK. If you sincerely sincerely wish to study the Buddha, sincerely develop the mind of the practice of medicine, please tell them that you feel the Bodhisattva Buddha every hour is next to help you, never leave never. This blessing is clear, blatant blessing, you know yourself. Then, as you may know, The quantity that we are blessed by the Bodhisattva Buddha is slightly different, due entirely to ourselves. The blessing of the Bodhisattva Buddha is to our mind, the mind that cultivates itself is completely corresponding to that mind. We use a little more heart, a little more heart, a little heart sincere, the Bodhisattva Buddha added a blessing. So, there are some initiates who know clearly the Bodhisattva Buddha is blessing them, but there are some beings who are completely unaware, righteous in this place.

Speaking of "beings offering offerings," we should know the four principles of the Buddha. Of these four principles are still methods, this method is the Four Freemasons France: generosity, love speech, profit, colleagues. There are four kinds of dhamma in the world. There are four kinds of dharma in the dharma. There are four dharmas in the Dhamma. There are four Dhamma in the Dhamma. I know you in this world, any different culture, any different race, even different religious beliefs can be built. build good relations. In fact, this world of diplomats should study, this is the diplomatic philosophy, diplomatic theory of the Buddha, certainly can be together very harmonious. So people are sentient beings, Today I bring this extra idea. If not added, although it was preached but too empty, do not know where to practice in? Thinking back the Bodhisattva Buddha contact with all beings, the fact that it is too high. Meticulously considered, they are the use of Four Sisters, four French, use is very satisfactory. We should study.

"The mass of suffering" should make efforts to work, why? Our goal is to wish all beings to leave suffering happy, hope all beings to enlightenment. Can beings be enlightened or not, the key is whether they have faith in the teacher or not, whether or not? Of course there is respect, there is shinjin, then the charm of enlightenment immediately. If he can not replace the suffering, but want to make all beings born in the heart of respect for him, giving birth to his belief is very difficult. Shakyamuni Buddha can cause all people to start believing in Him because they see Him instead of being suffering. He brought the material life down to the lowest level, his spiritual life reached the fullness of life, making all beings see no one not unhappy, no one does not respect the earth. If the life of beings is completely contrast, spiritual life is very poor, material life is too full, the Buddha wants to correct our wrong thoughts, wrong life behavior, he Shows a standard for us to see. If everyone can know enough, usually happy, know enough, the society peacefully, the world peace, all beings can honestly enjoy the happy life full. Why can the world be turbulent? Because you do not know enough, do not know that bored, definitely will make the loss of his interests, so it constitutes the cause of social disorder. Buddha is known to know enough, often happy. The wrong way of life, He manifested a standard for us to see. If everyone can know enough, usually happy, know enough, the society peacefully, the world peace, all beings can honestly enjoy the happy life full. Why can the world be turbulent? Because you do not know enough, do not know that bored, definitely will make the loss of his interests, so it constitutes the cause of social disorder. Buddha is known to know enough, often happy. The wrong way of life, He manifested a standard for us to see. If everyone can know enough, usually happy, know enough, the society peacefully, the world peace, all beings can honestly enjoy the happy life full. Why can the world be turbulent? Because you do not know enough, do not know that bored, definitely will make the loss of his interests, so it constitutes the cause of social disorder. Buddha is known to know enough, often happy. Do not know how bored, certain will make the loss of self-interest, so that immediately form the root cause social disorder. Buddha is known to know enough, often happy. Do not know how bored, certain will make the loss of self-interest, so that immediately form the root cause social disorder. Buddha is known to know enough, often happy.

Our body in this world, maintaining life is very simple. Buddha appeared in India, tropical area, so just three yen a bowl is enough. It was in the tropics, it was colder, when he put up enough to warm, then sleep at night, the three of this is a patchwork, used as blankets. We are in Singapore, in this situation you are enough. I believe in Singapore, where in this area, the night sleep does not need to cover the cotton blanket, if the cotton blanket, the health of that person is definitely not normal, so here life is very simple. easily. One bowl is that every day out alms, beg for a meal, should have a bowl. You see life is so simple, so easy enough, a meal to eat, no work, true happiness is nothing. Meeting a number of students teach business, say, How happy you look! Teaching is the most joyful of beings, in the Chinese proverb, we often say, "I have found myself in the world of human beings, my dear children," this is the happiest of beings, so the spiritual life Their abundance as such, material needs just enough. We understand this meaning, even in the context of life before our eyes to learn the Buddha, clothes we can wear warm, eat every day, get a small room can avoid rain sunny enough. Enough then also have to expect what? If you still want to find the problem. just enough material demand. We understand this meaning, even in the context of life before our eyes to learn the Buddha, clothes we can wear warm, eat every day, get a small room can avoid rain sunny enough. Enough then also have to expect what? If you still want to find the problem. just enough material demand. We understand this meaning, even in the context of life before our eyes to learn the Buddha, clothes we can wear warm, eat every day, get a small room can avoid rain sunny enough. Enough then also have to expect what? If you still want to find the problem.

There are many people who like to stay home, I am in the United States see a lot, in Australia also see a lot. The initiates invited me to their house to eat rice, the house was very large, the garden was very large, meticulous observation they are very pitiful, they have to be the servants of the room, every day have to go to work tired Want to lose, then when home to adjust the house. Overseas, many are carpeted, must be vacuumed, outside the garden must cut grass, watering flowers, no time. The bigger the garden, the harder it is to hire people, the more expensive it is. Employing foreign workers is a time-consuming task, with the United States hiring the cheapest one at five dollars a hour for every employee, you have to hire them for six hours at $ 30, which is the cheapest. . Often, ordinary laborers also have to pay nearly VND10 per hour, You invite them to work 6 hours, costing 60 đồng. So do not dare to hire people, do yourself a job. I see these people, I also can not say, the fact that self-suffering, what better than our little room? I say, I prefer a single room because it is very convenient to go out the door, no matter what, no matter how many days you go. I just need a room to lie down enough, everything else do not need, too bother. Shakyamuni Buddha is even more noble, even to the room did not need, under the tree to sleep one night, he is true greatness, we can not compare with him. These are all ordinary eyes we see, "the mass of suffering miserable". In fact, the Buddha is present for us to show, although it is good, When thinking back is true. This is a minor addition to this sense.

"It is necessary to cultivate the offerings," this is considered as offering, is to help all beings, so they hear, so they see the enlightenment, can touch people, can make people enlightenment If they have a feeling of enlightenment, when they receive the offerings, they immediately understand, they know what to do is to receive offerings, the purpose of the Bodhisattva Buddhist monks immediately attained.

Compassion, on the Buddhist scriptures often say, good base is not greedy, no greed, no si, including all the good of the world are from this three good roots that are born. On the contrary, greed is the origin of all evil world, so called three poison, today we call poison. The most serious poison, including all evil, comes from the greed-enlightenment. The Buddha in all of the Mahayana sutras repeatedly advised us that we need to cultivate the precepts, eliminate the greedy-tham-si, using the method of gender-determination-lobha-tham-si. If the members of this association are meaningful, the sudden succession of enlightenment, Buddha appeared in the world say what legal? It is preaching the world-determination. At the present time of the Buddhist scriptures, we adjust the inductive into three types called Tripitaka. Tripitaka is the Pitaka, the Vinaya Pit, the Pitaka. Kinh Tang speakethic school, The Tibetan law says the school, the commentary on wisdom. The Tathagata Buddhas appearing in the world are nothing else but the precepts. Why say gender-determination? Because beings are greedy-tham. Wisdom, these three remedies are to counter-tham-an-si. Understanding this principle, you can recognize Buddhism, you will immediately clear what is Buddhism.

Gender, the reasoning of the world is very deep, the general is very complex, it is a college education, but it has a platform, it has principles. Its principle is eight words: "evil monks, charity work".

What is the standard of good and evil? We need to be clear. As long as self-interest self-interest is evil, all natural benefits are good beings. In China, there is a saying: "The man who does not despise his heaven," the Buddha taught us not to be ourselves, as opposed to the Chinese concept. Which one is right? The Buddha said perfectly. Where is it? Because we say the origin of the six realms, today we are unhappy to fall into the six realms, countless incarnations of samsara so far in the six realms of no way out. Where do the six Buddhas come from? Due to the self-interest concept that turns out. The Buddha taught us to break away from self-interest, to let go of the self-interest and self-interest, then you go out of the six realms, this is true benefits. Buddha is very right. The concept of the world people "who do not for their own sake" is the Chinese say; Foreigners are very sensitive about personal rights, foreign laws have individual rights. What are personal rights? Is the right to self-interest, decided not to be out of the six realms of reincarnation, why? The law guarantees you to be in the six realms of samsara, not to let you go, can you also go out of the six realms of samsara?

Buddha says, if you can not get out of the six realms of samsara, then your time in three evil lines will be long, your time in three short paths, especially in the human realm. So in the six realms, three evil road is the motherland, three good roads only travel to visit tourism only. This time we visit the tour also considered not bad, can meet the Buddha, make this clear. So you honestly make it clear, make it complete, then you know what is the benefit, which is harmful. Decisive discharge of tham-an-si, the decision to discharge the reputation of nutrition, the sixth sex education. Year of education is talent, identity, real, lobe must be removed. Buddha said talent, identity, real, lob is the original year of hell. Why the hell is the hometown? You try to think, five who do not crave, who do not want to get? You craving, you have, go to hell. On the Buddhist teaching advice, ten good is good friends, ten evil is oan. Think again, we associate with you are very friendly, friendly, very friendly, ten good is very strange, no interest whatsoever. This is crazy.

He can be far away from the evil ten, close to ten good, this person for life can be reincarnated heaven, they enjoy heaven blessing people. If as far away from ten good, the body near ten evil is definitely three paths, so the new Buddhist advised us to improve the base.

The Bodhisattva Buddha, the great virtue as an example for us, not only do not have evil acts, not only do not have the act of killing, directing, lingering, expecting language, two dimensional, evil, weaving , greed, anger, delusion, which even the notion is not, this is honestly called evil. Those who deal with material things in the daily life, not only appear not kill but also love beings, not only stealing, but also joyful gift, not only lustful but very have ceremony. They do it for us to see, every sentence is true, decides not to have hope. In the place where they are always rejoicing, people can be harmonious together living together, resolved not to provoke harassment. The temptation to harass is two-dimensional. Therefore, you meticulous observation of the life of the Bodhisattva Buddhas, their acts are ten good, The truth is "the rich world, do not commit dread." That is to improve the base. Tu still need to add the word "need", hard work effort. We think, the Buddha Tathagata, Dharma Master has all let go of hope, discrimination, attachment, why must also improve the right? Their goodness is already full, they are full, they are transformed to this world, full expression for us to see. Speaking of us is not enough, because some people do not really believe, so they can honestly do. They say that they are perfectly able to do, we hear is, that is true, not fake. They advise us to give donations, which they themselves do not pay a penny is a problem, is not credible. They advise us to give alms, they also give alms, they are more generous than we are,

In the past, I was in Taichung, studying the teachings of the French teachings often advised people to give generous offerings, wide-bound legal conditions. We see the lead to do. At that time the treatment of the teacher is not bad, the teacher himself is the first Congregation, the secretary of the office of Quan Xieng. That level is the highest level, relatively high status, very post-treatment, teacher also cum teacher of Trung Hung University, Chinese Academy of Chinese Medicine. Where do teachers also have income. Master Tu Lien from Ta Quang Trung Commune, when the Tu Quang library was founded, he was the Chief of the cum Chief. Common or regular offerings to the teacher, offerings to old teachers. The amount of money that he has to give alms, he went through life is very simple. When I was with my master, around 50 years, Life is very difficult, the cost of living a day is two. At that time, a dollar was exchanged for 40 yuan. The cost of living a day is two dollars, which is the cost of living a month, then there are less than two dollars. Those who do pupils like us, the friends who see the teacher so do not do respect? Can not be compared with people. Master said that he was honest to do so, so students naturally admire, trust the words of the teacher said, learning with the teacher. If you can say yourself, you can not do that but want to tell others can do, without this ethic, on the Buddhist scriptures say "uninhabited city." It must be self-made, need to tu-precepts, must be non-greed, no courting, no si, right in the opposite coast of no anger, In the context of not interested in mind, permanently keep the mind pure, equality, right understanding, compassion. This is the need to improve the base.

Buddha told us, the good of the Bodhisattva only one thing is diligent. But you should keep in mind, the Bodhisattva to the good of the world is full, then the effort of them is the profession. What is diligent? The diligent effort, study diligent. Study the main subject is the defilement, the main defilement is learning the subject, these two statements are an incident. Why? Negative obstacles to your door. You learn the method of why not enlightenment? Because there are defilements. After the defilement then the door opens, so learning the way to help you the defilements, the defilements help you enlightenment method, these two methods correspond to each other. Be diligent, the only good of the Bodhisattva is diligence, we must understand this principle. Then in the meticulously discussed the observation of the Buddhas Bodhisattva how to practice. In the economy, people see how Dharma monks practice like? This is the best example for us. We can learn the Buddha, coast can learn with Amitabha Buddha, you say how honorable? Amitabha Buddha is the most beautiful, the king in the Buddha, how to study with him? You see in the Infinite Life, how he is like, you follow this method of his that tu is imitation of him, is learning with him. He makes a good example for us. how to study with him? You see in the Infinite Life, how he is like, you follow this method of his that tu is imitation of him, is learning with him. He makes a good example for us. how to study with him? You see in the Infinite Life, how he is like, you follow this method of his that tu is imitation of him, is learning with him. He makes a good example for us.

The sixth platform, "Unsatisfactory Bodhisattva business offerings".

Karma is a career. What is the career of the Bodhisattva? I believe everyone knows that it is "successive wisdom of the Buddha, propagate profit", this is the career of the Bodhisattva, the business of the Tathagata. Today we have shaved head, embossed on the plate, that is the Tathagata disciples, so inherited the business of the Tathagata, must bring the Tathagata's extensive expansion. This is our duty, our mission. The great cause of the Tathāgata is to help all living beings to become Buddhas. But you must know, if we want to help all beings to do the Buddha, then we must first do Buddha, ourselves can not do Buddha, how can help others to Buddha?

How do you do Buddha?

The first thing is to develop the mind, the four words of the vow, practice the four swearing words, is not the case early evening once, so it is not useful. Practical, each concept of beings, each thought to help beings are enlightened. The teachings of the Buddha must know how to teach, the principle of principle is not changed, and the method of teaching is natural, if you understand the Four Sisters and four French Memory, you smoothly.

Today, worldwide misunderstandings, suggest that Buddhism is a religion, taking Shakyamuni Buddha, Amitabha Buddha, and Bodhisattvas as gods to treat, see are the gods to worship Buddhism. They claim that the god of prostration Buddhism is about the same as Hinduism, the god of Hinduism has more than twenty thousand, the god of Buddhism can be much more than them, for "Buddhism is polytheism "They mislead such a view. How do we correct this misconception? This is of utmost urgency. If this concept can not be changed, the education of the Buddha will not be able to promote, can not be circulated. Nowadays, people with little knowledge, enlightenment are aware that people all over the world must live together peacefully and coexist. I came to Australia to participate in the organization of world peace religions, more than 30 leaders of religions have the same consciousness, are looking for peaceful society, world peace, cooperation, coexistence. at development. These six words are almost understandable, but how can this be practical? People are thinking now. We have the opportunity to accept their invitation, bring the Dharma to introduce them, the Dharma is what they are currently looking for.

What is Buddhism?

Dhamma is the perfect education of the fullness of Shakyamuni Buddha for all beings. In the past, I have said this, now for these situations, I do not use this expression anymore, but I say that the Dharma is the fullness of Shakyamuni Buddha's teachings for cultural pluralism. When they hear this, they see that this is what they need. I did not say anything wrong, Shakyamuni Buddha is not god, what is he? He is a member of the multicultural cultural education service. Saying so, everyone just listen to immediately understand, then know how Shakyamuni Buddha is like.

Why call him Buddha? The Buddha called the Buddha with the Chinese call him a meaning. The Buddha is translated enlightened people; The Chinese call the saint the wise person, the one who is transparent to all the truth, to the truth of the human universe. The saint is transparent, in Buddhism we call the Buddha, so the Buddha is transparent. We are not thorough about the facts, but they are thorough. As soon as explained so people are clear.

We bring the teachings of the Buddha to all beings, the benefits of all beings, that is Bodhisattva kamma. The whole force of this undertaking, hoping to bring this work to good, bring this to fullness. But at present, the greatest difficulty in our eyes is the language barrier, when we encounter many religions in the world, this barrier constitutes a great barrier, so interpreters It becomes extremely important. Interpreters hard to bridge, not easy, absolutely can not speak the language of the two sides can translate, do not have this morality.

In the past, layman Thich Gia Trinh in the United States wanted to bring Mahayana Buddhism introduced to Westerners. He is very zealous. He had spent some time, spirit, and financial resources, inviting some translators, translating Chinese into English, interpreting much of his essay, to make a pile of manuscripts at the New York Library. He led me to see, each wall on the shelves are filled with books. He shook his head to tell me, a book also can not be used, things have translated into Chinese people do not understand, foreigners also do not understand, mental spirit of financial strength of many years unfortunately. You know I can say it's too late. I recommend to him, such translators can not automatically circulate. I say, try to think, China in ancient times, When did Indian masters come to China for translation work? Not an interpreter.

Chinese translation of the Buddhist Sutra is organized, the number of people very much, the task of cooperation, by a small team to draft, then raised research discuss, see the wrong meaning, there are many people together. discuss each other. First determine the meaning of the wrong translation, then find a literary lexicon to lucrative, that is to repair the text, making the text more glossy, meaning can not be changed. Finally, they had to invite the two countries to read, to read them once, to let them hear, they agreed that they were not wrong, they came to prove that this work can be completed. So the business has many procedures, what to do so easily. Invite a person in the car maker, the car that made it impossible to walk on the road.

The senator asked me, so what should I do? I say, if you would like to translate a sutra, for example, he translated the Kim Cang, he listened to in the country, outside the country who has the practice of the Kim Cang, who preached to Kim Cang, he invited them to. He gathered all the translators, had to listen to the preacher, the general idea of ​​the Kim Cang is really understandable, whenever they have questions can also inquire shaman, y Cang that practice, to prove to them, to their sense of translation is wrong. This method must be translated into business, organization must be, but the scale can not be compared with the old.

In ancient China, people knew that the translation of the business of Uma Arcturus has more than 400 people, the translation of the Master of Xuanzang has more than 600 people, it has staff, the country chaired, of the country, what to do that simple? So you translate the business, you do not have two or thirty people, you can not do it, it's not that many people can make it, at least two or thirty people. Interpretation of a business that is on the day of the business, the day of studying the new business does not translate wrong. The translator did not hear the Buddhist scriptures, do not understand the Dharma is just translating the script. Just like old Li had said a joke, "double currency" translated into what? Two most respectable feet. They do not translate wrong, nhịt, nhị is not two or sao? As the feet, the two most precious feet. That's a laugh. So, on the wrong translation, the meaning is completely wrong. It is not easy to see this. The more difficult the translators to find, the more they have to work, also have to worry about careers, how can concentrate the whole spirit to come here to study Buddhism? Without the effort to study the Buddha, the interpretation will be difficult.

Translation work today is Bodhisattva kamma. How can the Mahayana Buddhism spread to China popular introduction to the world? If you want to develop "mindless Bodhisattva business offerings", then you must try to learn foreign languages, the language of each country should study. After learning well then we can bring the Dharma to the country, to that area, to the future in the world. Currently we can see, the most popular languages ​​in the world are English, Spanish and Chinese. Because of the Chinese language, only about one in a million Chinese, a very large number of Chinese, so many foreigners have to learn Chinese language. Currently in the United States, every university has a faculty of Sino- Specialized in Chinese Literature. The future you go back to the Chinese, you do not understand Chinese, how can? If we want to spread Buddhism to every Western country, how can we not communicate their language? Immediately find a translator, this is us from the experience that has been. So to say, do not discharge Bodhisattva career in this modern era, not only we have to practice the law, but also the wisdom of the Buddha, to propagate the benefits, also must Think of different races, different cultures, different literary languages, how these issues must be resolved. If we do not communicate their language, how can it? Immediately find a translator, this is us from the experience that has been. So to say, do not discharge Bodhisattva career in this modern era, not only we have to practice the law, but also the wisdom of the Buddha, to propagate the benefits, also must Think of different races, different cultures, different literary languages, how these issues must be resolved. If we do not communicate their language, how can it? Immediately find a translator, this is us from the experience that has been. So to say, do not discharge Bodhisattva career in this modern era, not only we have to practice the law, but also the wisdom of the Buddha, to propagate the benefits, also must Think of different races, different cultures, different literary languages, how these issues must be resolved.

Young initiates, not discussing at home or go home must be mind. Of course, the specialized training, the self-nature is a little less, not worry, the decision can be protected by the Three Jewels. "Buddha meditation, good governance," only fear is itself if the liberal liberation can not be accomplished. If you want to enjoy your own spiritual material, you can not achieve it. The true person can accomplish the self-discharge for the person, must take all the suffering also volunteer, just be able to benefit beings, just can help others enlightened, help people Others understand the law, help others practice the fruit. That is the Bodhisattva, Bodhisattva career. You emit this mind, hard effort that tu, you are the offerings to the Buddha Tathagata, why? As you continue the wisdom of the Buddha,

The seventh platform, "any cup of bodhicitta offering".

Bodhisattva Samantabhadra in the joy of speech tells us to hear a total of seven things, He brought "like the theory of religious offerings" to the first row, bring "any bodhisattva offering" ultimate. One before, the latter one is very important. In fact, the seven sentences are important, these two sentences are even more important. According to the Mahayana sutras often say: " Out of mind loss Bodhi that tu good France is all business" The Buddha paid special attention to the teachings of this Bodhi mind. Without any Bodhi mind, any good kamma is a kamma, not a Bodhisattva kamma. Why call it kamma? Because there is no Bodhi mind all practice, the future you have is the blessing of heaven, enjoy the blessings of heaven can not be out of the six realms of samsara, blessings to enjoy all still fall , so called magic, not the Buddha, is not professional, Bodhisattva kamma, the main ethics right here. Then the Bodhi mind, tu of all goodness why turn into Bodhisattva kamma? Bodhi mind is the mind, the mind of enlightenment all the French, they do not enjoy, in which they have no hope, discrimination, attachment, blessings themselves do not enjoy, That blessing for all beings. That is the Buddha, is a Bodhisattva. Absolutely not to let yourself enjoy, enjoy yourself immediately get stuck. For others to enjoy, you are the Bodhisattva, you are the Buddha. So we are meticulous observation, Shakyamuni Buddha himself how to do so, after Shakyamuni Buddha, his disciples also learn the teacher. In the past An To Cao to China, Ma Dang, Truc Phap Lan, on history have recorded, China's many generations, great virtue from India, from the West to China propagation of profit, life of You can show the Sun as a mirror, they can learn the Buddha, so in China can be from the court to the revered people, can make the Chinese revelation practice Buddhism. Their virtue, they have wisdom, have merit, but wisdom, blessings are all for all beings.

DEFINITELY

The Bodhi, the Blessed One in the Quan Kinh have told us three things.

The first is the sincerity, sincerity. Chi Thanh is sincere to the peak. Devotional is the body of the Bodhi mind, we often say that the nature, the nature of mind Bodhi is sincere to the peak, we humans have, only now we have lost hope go. One day from dawn to dusk, the mind of Bodhi will no longer exist.

Sincere, what is called? There are many people who say, "My heart is very, very sincere, I bring sincere heart to people." I tell you, that sincere heart is all false! In front of the Qing Dynasty, Siddhartha Gautama, at the time of reading the book, gave the definition of "good". The Chinese people who have studied in the past have all read the Buddhist scriptures, are also willing to listen to lectures, because of their own cultivation of Confucianism, the study of Buddhism so much more deeply than Buddhism. with our present one. He said:  "An unborn notion is called". This definition is very good, true to the Buddhist teaching. What is called sincere? An idea not born called sincerity, in Buddhism we call one-pointedness, unity. The concept of mind that is the only, the second thought mind is not successful. Please tell them, without success then fall into the ten legal world. If you most single mind, you transcendent legal world ten, where to go? The most united legs. So you should know, the most mind is the mind, the most legal dhamma is the evidence, if you do not come to mind most one decides you can not attain the most legal foot. You fall in two conceptions of three thoughts, that is ten world law, if there is further obscurantism is that the six realms, do not know how many thoughts how much thought is that it is creating six realms. So, Pure Land Buddhism is elaborate at the center of the disorder. You are the most unruly, if not to the Western World of Ultimate Bliss, you also go to the world of Tibet. The most unconcerned mind with the most legal foot, not compatible with the legal world. You are the most true non-rebirth not only the transcendental six realms, but also transcendent ten legal world, so one-minded disorder is not easily achieved.

Before I was in the United States, some initiates read Amitabha to tell me, " Magicians! The Pure Land discipline I can not cultivate, because one-pointed mind I can not do" I am very upset people watching this business, they look very meticulous, ordinary people see this place does not raise this issue. They think "one mind not disorder" they can not do, afraid that can not be reborn. I immediately told them, the translation of "The most unspoiled mind" is the master of Kumarajima translated, he translated the translation, the translation of Master Xuanzang this sentence does not translate so. On the translation of Master Huyen Trang is "Nhat Tam Thiet Tam", not translated as Nhat Tam Disorder, as on the Infinite Life we ​​also translated as "unified direction". The most specialized way of thinking is, we can do, One Heart Disorder is not easy. Then, is this saying that La Thap is the wrong translation? Lord La not translated wrong, why not wrong? You should know, when we reborn is the Buddha to lead, So everyone should not be skeptical, in the words say how we do that, should not ask the West where in the end? The planet is round, going west does not come back or why, in the end where the West? The more people search, the more chaotic thoughts, the lake finally come to the West also do not trust. So no matter where we are in the West, we do so in a way, a buddha statement that is our connection with Amitabha Buddha, to the world of Ultimate Bliss. Based on this signal, we connect. We do not need to know where the world of Ultimate Bliss is, in the end what planet. Amitabha Buddha to welcome us, we do not need to know the way, nor need to know the direction, to follow Amitabha Buddha may be wrong? Be assured.

As in previous years, when I came here, Lin Y Sanh of the Quan Yin Sorrowful Resurrection Association, lay Li Yuxing also led a number of fellow initiates to support him. Two days before the birth, I have to visit him. When he was gone, he said to his assistant,  "I do not see you now, I see a golden light". Amitabha Buddha light, first saw the light, just reflecting on your elaborate, you are inherently not one-pointed, when the Buddha has just turned to the right one. So, Master La Shap is not wrong, just you elaborate into a block, we just need to do this elaborate. The main work is a day from the early Buddhist evening without interruption, in our minds only think Amitabha Buddha, there is no other thoughts, all other thoughts turn into Amitabha Buddha, here call is meticulous in volume. As long as you have this elaborate, the Buddha to continue to lead you, the Buddha has just screened you to increase your elaborate multiplication. What is so much? The unshakable mind. Master La Thuc translation is not wrong. La Thap is also the reborn world of the Pure Land, in the Pure Land of Hien Luc, This is the Western Bodhisattva Ultimate Bliss reborn. So the honest Chinese people have the blessings, the ancient translators are ancient Buddhist, Bodhisattva, Dharma Rector Dharma. If not a reborn, how can this be translated? Can we now be a reborn? May! Just as your effort transcends karma, you are the reincarnation of karma. Super force transcendence, you are immediately blessings Bodhisattva Buddhas. Constructed without this wisdom, Buddha has just blessed wisdom is present. At this business does not understand the meaning, the Buddha just blessed the meaning of each sentence is the same words as the water flowing, can not stop. The problem is whether you want to be a reborn. Do you want to be a Bodhisattva? So the honest Chinese people have the blessings, the ancient translators are ancient Buddhist, Bodhisattva, Dharma Rector Dharma. If not a reborn, how can

whether you want to be a reborn. Do you want to be a Bodhisattva?

True to be the Bodhisattva, transcendent force transcendence of your force, you success. To make great vows, to be true to see, to truly let go, true enlightenment, not yourself, so no need to think of yourself help yourself. No beings themselves, all beings are themselves, help all beings are themselves become Buddhists, because beings are themselves. According to the French economy, the Buddha said the Buddha, the disclosure of enlightenment into the Buddha's knowledge. If we can assert that all beings are nowhere near the real world is yourself, this is the Buddhist Buddha, you can confirm that you go to the Buddha. In the Buddha's knowledge, we are transformed into the holy body, this body is our inheritance is a reincarnation, will be protected by the Three Jewels. So, can not leave the mind of Bodhi. Bodhi heart is the sincere heart, the object to handle the object to use the heart sincerity.

Where should the sincerity begin? From not expecting words that do, do not deceive people do, do not fool yourself to deceive, that is the primary means of heart sincerity. You have something to hide other people, there is no way to tell people, where is your sincerity? No! Often fellow initiates say it is difficult to do. I tell you is not difficult, bridge difficult, bridge yourself is not difficult? Do you yourself do or not? I really want to do, to do is to really do not want to live in the six realms again, honest in this life want to escape the six realms, escape the ten world precepts, go to Buddha, go to work Bodhisattva, you only You need to do it, you can do it. If you do not do it, there is no way, anyone can not help, Buddhas Tathagata also can not help, this is the problem itself.

The second is delicate mind.

The third thing is to make a volunteer prayer.

In the mind of Bodhi, the second meaning is "inwardly", is self-serving; The third meaning is "mind devotee", is to use life, so say Bodhi mind is said three mind, can, use. This is very meticulous. In effect is divided into two types, one is self-service, one is life. Self-righteousness is the heart. The ancients say what is the heart? Kindness, kindness. Today we change the way to say other, joyful discharge to help people here is the heart. Devotional devotions are the realities of your heart. Your mind is real in your daily life, you can do it honestly, sincerely love to help others, sincerely bring blessings of your own wisdom and enjoy all beings, see people We enjoy ourselves very happy, see that other people eat enough, I have not eaten very happy, this is the heart of the devotee. The Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara in the Initiation of Faith, or in other words the great compassion, the great compassion is the loving help of all sentient beings, helping all of them. birth, achievement of all beings, decisive no distinction, no attachments, no carrying any conditions, whole hearted help people. This is life. The ordinary people of the world, including our fellow Buddhists, including those who have left home and home, helping others, giving others the right to say things, Will it also be said that this work of generosity is a genuine good or not? Was it deceived by others? There are many questions to stay in mind, hesitation is not resolved. At the Bell, The offerings are so blessed in the six realms, not merit. What is merit? There is no doubt, pure liberty.

In Singapore, layman Li Jimo often praised Dharma Master Chan. I have met him many times, I very respect him, very much to him, this magecraft monk gift is merit, not meritorious. You see, his life is very frugal, his material life is much more difficult than ours, we see him as such will be ashamed. All his life eating rice is just a food, not as we are here are many dishes. He was drinking tap water, holding the glass is not known how many years, then drink water to the tap water to drink tap water. We went to visit him, he considered us as guests to welcome, buy a bottle of mineral water to treat us, it is hospitality guests. And his Bell is really good, the US gave away a hundred thousand, without a bit slippery, after giving away and immediately asked to not ask. He said, I gave you then, you do good work to do bad things, cause you burden me not burden. This is called pure net, this gift is merit, not a blessing. After giving alms and still ask how this has done, then it is the merit, not the merit, because the mind is not pure. You see, the Buddha Tathagata gave all beings like the Dharma Master Meditation, decided not to ask anymore, today we call the careless generous donation, unconditional donation offerings , just to see that beings are necessary, we ourselves have the capacity is always wholeheartedly help them, wholeheartedly achieve their full power. The person in charge of the reception in the daily life does not leave the mind of Bodhi, which is called offerings. In fact, Like here say offerings to the Buddha Tathagata not by offering offerings like legs. The true nature is the Buddha Tathagata. The meticulous that can meet this director, then know the true meaning of these two sentences.

"Pseudo god offering holy saints . "

The word "offering" is said in this place.

"Sainthood," the holy here is not ordinary people, using the present say that is the Dharma Master. Proven Bodhisattva Bodhisattva can be called holy, not the Bodhisattva Bodhisattva, we call them sage, sage. This is the word on the teachings. The bodhisattva statue of the bodhisattva is the same as that of the Bhiksu, so the holy script in this place is the Superintendent, the Preacher. Constant is the number of many, you give generous donation of many Dharma Master so how big blessings of you? Can not be calculated, can not calculate. Such great blessings, but the Buddha said "no matter how valiant, can not be compared with the determination you are consistent, courageous effort that the genius. Right Enlightenment is the Immaculate One. Because here is the chanting, limited by the words, Each sentence of seven words, seven litigation, this righteousness is the Supreme Sense of Chief Justice, not equal decisive determination diligently diligent Buddha. How is the Buddha? Recite the Buddha's birth without regaining the Buddha. Reciting the Buddha's path we are the "valiant genuineness", you know the Buddhist discipline is the victory, the Buddhist concept can not think. Our minds make the beings to attain Buddhahood, often to keep this mind. Yourself a tender heart Pure Land, take the merits of self-tu day, evil monk good, accumulating merit, all of the return to the Pure Land. Phuoc Duc has not resolved to enjoy, enjoy the Western World Pure Land can not go. Decide not to enjoy, so that all blessings to wait until death to enjoy. When there is no death, suffering before death, stand that birth, sit that reborn Very good! Showing others, making good examples for others, people see and then trust.

"Reincarnation to Buddha," the front to say so much, but the statement in this sentence, are not equal to Buddha recite Buddha. We understand this doctrine. What is the ultimate goal of Quartermaster, what is the first thing? Helping others recite the Buddha's birth without regaining the Buddha's name, it is the First Noble Truth.

" Assuming holy offerings

No matter how brave the ego .

These two verses in the whole business occupies a very important position, so many ancient virtues are often used in the speech of the uncle, the meaning of endless depth, especially in this modern era, We read these two verses like the one in front of our ears to tell us, the feeling is very deep.

The text of the lecture very much, the ancient virtues bring the word "Holy" this is considered Upper Bodhisattva, this idea is also very clear. If more than one floor, more than one floor, this holy text is the Bodhisattva Buddha. The Bodhisattva Bodhisattva is all beings. The Mahayana sutras often say: "All beings are Buddha in the future"; Hoa Nghiem, Vien Giac said more thoroughly insight: "All beings are inherently Buddha." Then, by the way, can we know that all beings are not offerings of saints? Why not in the courage of genius? You should know, only the offerings, you have the blessings, you offer more Bodhisattva Buddhas, your blessings are also not in the heaven, heaven, blessed sky only. Therefore, offering alone does not help,

Kien is consistent faith-vows, especially faith. Dhamma is not the school of any school, not a discourse is a religious discipline is not. Why can not we succeed? Because our beliefs are not consistent, our beliefs can fluctuate, so many practitioners are less accomplished. Who can accomplish that? Constant faith, the former is not changed, is the same general immutability, that person decisive lifetime achievement.

Believe in why stars can quit, why stars can change? There are two reasons for this.

The first cause is his own from countless hours to now tu improved the merit of virtue thin grace, not deep.

The second cause is that the catechesis is not deep enough, so the Buddha's teachings do not have a profound insight. The Blessed One on the Prajnaparamas of Bikkhu teaches us to "understand the confession".

We do not understand the depth of the Buddhist doctrine is not deep enough because of these two types of causes, so it can not prevent the charm of the six sex outside, disturbing the atmosphere that is more, all lost. This is so far, how many practitioners can not accomplish, the main factor right here. So if we want to be successful, the first faith must be consistent. Faith consistency is hard to do, not an easy task. If we ourselves in the past good virtue grace grace a little bit still not afraid, if we in this life meet the charm of victory can be a blessing virtue virtue is not enough. So in the Kinh Sut, the Great Master said good, He said:  "Nine reborn births are in different enlightenment". We know that good Samadhi is Amitabha Buddha reborn, this saying is Amitabha Buddha personally because we say. Meet different coasts, whether meet the charm of victory, if the good virtue is not there is not, even if there is not enough can compensate, if not, then can not be achievements.

This example is very obvious, I myself am a living example. When I was young, I heard the Dharma very late, 25 years old to hear the Dharma, I always feel too late, due to coast is not enough. I am close to birth in the East of America, Phuong students students are very large, I learn the Buddha with Master Chuong, pupil of Master Chu is very much. After the Grand Master, I thanks to the introduction of the layman Chau Kinh Vu familiar old school layman Li Bo Nam. When I followed old Li, Li's student was twenty thousand people. Pupils so much but why can not reveal? Because of the virtue of virtue, they are not, they have, they have found, but few. At least follow the good teacher is still no way to supplement, the cause is just so. Today we are in the full association of Singapore, Can the victory, can achieve or not? Only in virtue of the virtues of fellow initiates. If true initiates are not good in virtue of virtue, in the right conditions, I trust you can definitely achieve.

At present we will preach Huayen Sutra in the Belief of the Pure Land School, morning every day from ten hours to eleven and half hours, on the day of teaching. You can stay in the home network up view, we each lecture simultaneously posted online. At present the computer is very convenient, we lecture here, US initiates also hear. We just changed the time, fellow initiates from the United States called the phone very welcome. The morning of ten o'clock we begin to preach, in the United States is 8 o'clock in the evening, they see it at the right time, 8 o'clock to 9 o'clock, so they make phone calls to say nothing happy. Australia also see, Hong Kong also see. That's what I know, what I'm not sure is going to be a lot. So you can install the computer in the house to open the network, see the day you see.

First time studying Buddhism, reciting, listening to lectures is more important than anything, why? Helping you to stay faithful to the heart, to help you persist in heart, then you can trust the new genie. If you can not understand the meaning, you will be dissatisfied, you will regress. You have to know, when you just settle down, as soon as you withdraw, you immediately have to enlighten yourself good virtue is not enough, can not grasp the sense of business. Charity will not diverge, the interpreter will also not refuse, the two types of people decisive achievements.

Everyone knows the world has an accident, how to save yourself? "Not by the courage of goggles." How to help beings? "Not by the courage of goggles." Truth is self-interest, sincerity in front of this business has said "true pillar of wisdom," the practice of "true profit hedge," real practice this sentence. Then, because of this can know, definitely have to be consistent, not hesitate to oscillate. Remember the teachings of the Great Teacher, regardless of who comes to tell us that does not correspond to the discipline of this economic, we all reject, all do not receive. " Even if Shakyamuni Buddha is reborn, the ten Buddhas of the future will tell you that they are not compatible with the sutra.", why? It is not the real Buddha, the false Buddha. If the Buddha is the same, all Buddhas say the decision must correspond with Shakyamuni Buddha said, that is the real Buddha. This is the Great Master of all the advice to us, most afraid is that we steal hear the chatter, listen to this magician, the other said this, for this method, for the classic This critique, immediately in doubt, immediately fluctuate; or false exposure in the sixth sense, self-ingame negativity triggers the current, the reputation of interest immediately arise, immediately degraded. This is too much, in the place where we see. Keeping tough is not difficult.

"Dung" is the courage of determination, determination to ask the right direction. Enlightenment in this place, we live in this one decisive to be able to bridge the reach, decisive to be able to achieve only one subject is to recite the Buddhist recitation Buddha. This subject is credible, so stable, so quick. Other methods of course are not bad, only fear is that our character is not complete, using the current saying that our conditions are not enough, why? The decision must be afflicted, must be anecdotal snippets, must articulate sa, must break ignorance, this is too difficult, authentic is not the work of modern people can do. Do not say these things, only say the teachings of Confucianism, Elder Hoang Niem To is the Kim Cang Master of Tantrism, the teachings of the Na Na Buddha, He very frankly told people that this time learning the Secret of the Doctrine was accomplished, there was no human being, only the recitation of the Buddha's name was born of the Pure Land. So he touched a lot of tantric practitioners, he advised them to strengthen the Sutra of the Life Expenditures, to bless the Amitabha Sutra, to bless the Venerable Siddhartha Bodhisattva, he told them to bless these three types. In other words, the Secret does not accomplish, this accomplishment. The layman of Hạ Lại Cư, the lay elder Hoàng Niệm Tổ, the true master is all the advice, the same method used by Master Vinh Minh Dien Tho almost the same. Secret does not accomplish, this achievement. The layman of Hạ Lại Cư, the lay elder Hoàng Niệm Tổ, the true master is all the advice, the same method used by Master Vinh Minh Dien Tho almost the same. Secret does not accomplish, this achievement. The layman of Hạ Lại Cư, the lay elder Hoàng Niệm Tổ, the true master is all the advice, the same method used by Master Vinh Minh Dien Tho almost the same.

Venerable Diem Tho Vinh Minh very much, he found very clearly can not be accomplished, so proposed Zen meditation song: "There is Zen meditation, as the tiger grows more horns. What does this mean? Seeing that meditation can not be accomplished, if you add this Pure Land, you have accomplished. It is not He who encourages us to meditate, but He who meditates to the Zen. Introduction to the micro-subject, face problems, can not let go, so they use this method of ingenious means, you add to the Pure Land is better, they will immediately receive, is enough You can also go to the radio. In old age, the Elderly is the same, the Confucian also has face problems, using this kind of method to help them, to achieve them. If you are sincerely reciting Buddha's name, then decide to accomplish. That is the ten all the Buddhist scriptures praised in this business, we all read through, Buddha do not expect language? Every sentence is a sincere teaching, we have to believe, to bring this to completion in this one of us, only one big thing to do. All the time, all places, meditations with the Buddha, corresponds to Amitabha Buddha.

To say to you, we recite a sentence Amitabha Buddha is true offering holy saints, this is as a religious teaching offerings. We let go of all enjoyment, let go of all the riches, all the time used to recite the Buddha, are used to read the sutras, as well as rescue victims instead of beings. This ethics we during the lecture has said many times, this is the true self-interest benefits, but ordinary people do not recognize, and Buddhas Tathagata praise, maintenance. So we are right in this place, when Amida did not shake hands, we immediately open the concept of the Buddha before, the practice of this great first. In other words, to solve the worldly tribe of all living beings, this is the most pressing thing in front of the eyes, rush to do right. We in every thought, this concept is vow, May all beings be like us, even in a lifetime to witness the Buddha's fullness. Only this vow that can not be practically void.

How to practice? Practical certain to practice, self-liberation, no comment at any time, do not comment on any case, we bring this victory discipline introduced to others. Referring to others must understand the mind. There are three types of Buddhism, in Buddhism usually say there is metropolitan, medium, lower base, this way is very difficult to understand. What kind of person is superior? What kind of person is the base? Lower base is not bad, there are still no grounds. There are no grounds that you give them, they do not need. So we have to combine with people who do not have roots to grow good for them, also can not leave. How to grow good ground for them? They see the shape of the Three Jewels, so called "once heard through ear, forever planted good." The sound of the Triple Gem, The form of the Three Jewels, once seen through, is also permanently planted in good ground, so you must understand this truth. Understanding this doctrine, you immediately know the form of the monk was very happy blessing, you walk on the road for a while, go round one is how many people see. As soon as they saw this, they knew that this was a Buddhist monk, the monk, the monk, in their re-awakening of this impression, like the Buddha had planted. This fellow practitioner can not do it, what must fellow initiates do? If you want to go to the street, wearing a chain, people just look at Amitabha Buddha. You must have the criteria given, this is for all beings grow the same Buddha. People do not like the Buddha, planted the Buddha for them. We have to be mindful. There are not many initiates here to listen to the sutras, participate in the conference, We drive the car, in the car we are behind many posters Amitabha Buddha. Wherever you go, people just watch the sowing of the Buddha. These are all offerings of dharma. Those who listen to the news are very happy, they can rejoin their hands, they do not come to hear the sutra, they do not come to recite the Buddha, it is lowered. Meditators after hearing, then they will come to hear the sutra, will also come to recite the Buddha. The high-level people after hearing their whole life will immediately rely on this method, in this life decides to rebirth Buddha. Middle-aged people are not sure this life can be reborn, the masters decided to be born Pure Land. Those who listen to the news are very happy, they can rejoin their hands, they do not come to hear the sutra, they do not come to recite the Buddha, it is lowered. Meditators after hearing, then they will come to hear the sutra, will also come to recite the Buddha. The high-level people after hearing their whole life will immediately rely on this method, in this life decides to rebirth Buddha. Middle-aged people are not sure this life can be reborn, the masters decided to be born Pure Land. Those who listen to the news are very happy, they can rejoin their hands, they do not come to hear the sutra, they do not come to recite the Buddha, it is lowered. Meditators after hearing, then they will come to hear the sutra, will also come to recite the Buddha. The high-level people after hearing their whole life will immediately rely on this method, in this life decides to rebirth Buddha. Middle-aged people are not sure this life can be reborn, the masters decided to be born Pure Land.

Normally, we have to understand the mind-door, to understand the help of all living beings, so we persistently ask the righteous mind not forget to offer sainthood, Sacred beings and all sentient beings, the coast of grace. On the Buddhist scriptures often say: "Buddha does not count the ungainly." As far as this can be known, grace is important, especially the monk. The monk received donations from the followers, taking offerings to do what? Absolutely go to the coast, which is the true merit. This offering if you bring yourself to enjoy the broken then, it is the proverb in the Buddha often say "this life does not direct, carry horn hair to pay. Therefore, we must understand the comprehensive law, all because beings for the Buddha.

We also see that the world has many nursing homes, we are in Australia visiting a lot of old people's homes, buildings of the elderly. I take note of this, see a lot. Some people say that the old hospital is a work without hope, they come there to wait for death, material life care but the spiritual life is empty. So we want to establish Amida Village, we now have many external religions, many religions are nursing homes, they set up orphanages, we have to encourage them, help them . Elderly care is hopeful, hopeful. Nursing home of the Buddha, future reborn world Western Pure Land; Usually people in the nursing homes of future religions want to go to heaven, enjoy the blessings, How can you not hope? Where does this hope come from? Hope from religious education, nursing elderly, nursing them, on the day they have to go to class, definitely have religious teachers every day teach the Dharma talk with them, leading them to practice. Every religion has its own method of cultivation, so it is possible to reach the goal of the wish of religion is to heaven, rebirth, no three lines of evil, no longer to the suffering world, how? Do they have no hope? Full of hope. If this nursing home does not have a lecturer who speaks dharma, there is no religious leader, then there is the problem. We see that old people are not thinking about the wrong thing as foolish. Wild foolishness is falling into ignorance, thinking that the wrong Buddha called the election, these two kinds of phenomena are not good, are the core of the three evil lines. So we help the nursing home is full of hope, full of brilliance, decided not to work as hopeless as ordinary people have said. Old age helps them to achieve, helping them later life as happy as possible better than this life. The orphanage has to help children achieve their virtue, academic skills. We must sincerely love, try to teach them. These are all sacred offerings, bringing these merits to the birth of the Western world of Ultimate Bliss. This is a lot of blessings, many good grounds, many conditions. Amitabha said: "Can not lack the virtue of grace and the birth of that country," we create a lot of good, many blessings. So we start mindfulness, speech work does not leave this concept,

This time I lectured in Hong Kong, where fellow initiates asked me to recite the Buddha's name so that I can grasp the rebirth. I told them, knowing before the dead, there is no suffering, sit, go, stand, then hold firmly. Can they do that? I say, maybe! The main problem is whether you do or not. Truthfully true evil monk, accrued merit, blessed should not be blessed, blessing retained when the death.When death is not suffering illness is the message. When the death is clear, to see the Buddha to lead, tell your body is your "bye bye, I go here", it is the first blessing, a lifetime achievement to this. How many people do you know how many people? People see you reborn not trust also trust. We are talking about tearing the skin of the mouth but it is not sure they believed, when they performed so they believe. They asked me again, so how to do? I just said that the principle, you have to dip offerings. Middle-aged people are prevented from dying, having to prepare some retirement money, and want to make some money to pay for their medicine. I told them, you should give your old pension, give it to the nursing home, Give your medication for free, donate to the sick, you can do it, you definitely know before the dead, not sick, stand away, sit and go. For what reason? You do not have money to sick, you do not have money to support the old, you succeeded. You want to prepare some money to support the old, you are not old, prepare a little money to pay for medicine, you can not not be sick, how can you go to be alone? In this ethics, you must understand this ethic, understand the truth truth. Why can not others do it? We at the beginning, the concept is wrong. True to the practice of compassion, exhaustion must be clean, this is the decision to grasp right in a lifetime accomplishment. So the meaning of these two sentences is very deep, very large, we do not talk. These two statements only refer to this.

Text:

" May be at the Tam Tam

The launching gear proves to be necessary

Accelerated generous bar settlement

Rivalry is solemn .

This sentence is the result of the "valiant guttural righteousness," the post-shelf is the practice of "offering holy saints." You see, before the Buddha, after the beings, that is correct. We do not have achievements that want to be sentient beings are difficult. Where is hard? Fear of being lost. This is too much, so the old people have a good place is when you have not accomplished the whole life do not leave the teacher. I have not achieved achievements that are very easy to fall in love in the sixth sex education, love the reputation of the benefits, then falls will be very fast. When we fell down, it turned out to be very difficult, not easy, so be alert, do not leave the teacher, do not leave the fellow practitioners, rely on them.

We see this passage, the opening is " volunteered to live tam tam" In fact, this is the bridge to the Buddhist Pure Land vows, even in these eight verses are inducted vows, is also the nucleus of 48 vows. The first sentence says "volunteer to live tam tam". What is Tam Ma? It is the recitation of the Buddha. This passage is said Bhikkhu Dharma, or Amitabha Buddha Dharma practice in the human capital. Dhamma, the fact that the Blessed One shows us an example for us. Amitabha Buddha in the Western World of Ultimate Bliss to become a Buddha? If you look this way, this way of thinking you are completely wrong. The Dharma is also the ancient Buddha, the Western World of Ultimate Bliss is his. Like the Buddha Shakyamuni Buddha, three thousand years ago appeared in northern India show eight generals, then at that moment Shakyamuni Buddhist monks practice the fruit or not? Not. The Buddha is in the Pham Vong business told us, this time he came to perform the Buddha is the eighth time. This play is very familiar, took eight thousand times already. Amitabha Buddha in the world of Ultimate Bliss into the Buddha is like Shakyamuni Buddha, so do not know how many times already played. So we know the ancient Buddha, not true in this life just to become a Buddha. This ancient matter also discussed, some people say the Dharma, the body at this time is the Bodhisattva, some people say the Bodhisattva Bodhisattva. In fact, it is true that the Buddha is reborn, completely visible to us, watching us, making us watch, telling us to study, taking Him as our example, learning with Him. On the human side, we are now in the human realm is not reborn, then study the Bhikkhu Tibetan monks, the future after rebirth study Amitabha Buddha, It is learning the land, before the birth place, you think, see the meaning of this market how much? We can not from this place but the society, how can you be enlightened, how can you cover? Where do you go to study? The Buddha Tathagata compassion to the extreme, on the Mahayana business often say Body-Language-Italian three-way beings, that is to teach us. We must stay Tam Tam, also must study Amitabha Buddha in the human. "May live in Tam Tam". We must bring peace of mind in the recitation of the Buddha. The saying "reciting the Buddha, Tam Toi Central". How can you be so thorough? Where do you go to study? The Buddha Tathagata compassion to the extreme, on the Mahayana business often say Body-Language-Italian three-way beings, that is to teach us. We must stay Tam Tam, also must study Amitabha Buddha in the human. "May live in Tam Tam". We must bring peace of mind in the recitation of the Buddha. The saying "reciting the Buddha, Tam Toi Central". How can you be so thorough? Where do you go to study? The Buddha Tathagata compassion to the extreme, on the Mahayana business often say Body-Language-Italian three-way beings, that is to teach us. We must stay Tam Tam, also must study Amitabha Buddha in the human. "May live in Tam Tam". We must bring peace of mind in the recitation of the Buddha. The saying "reciting the Buddha, Tam Toi Central".

Tam Mui is Sanskrit, translated into Chinese is the life, normal enjoyment. What is the normal reward? Stick to the title, that is true normal enjoyment. We forget the Buddha thought is wrong. Bad idea is wrong life. You should know, thinking is wrong to create reincarnation. We have to be mindful, a 24-hour, meticulous thought that is within 24 hours we create what is? How much time do we recite Buddha's name? How long does it take to imagine? How much time is lost in ignorance? Ever fall into ignorance? Sleeping is falling into ignorance. This book must try to calculate whether he immediately know whether he has a firm grasp of the birth or not? If the time long mindfulness, super beyond imagination,

Sleep is a ghost. On the Buddhist scriptures often say, talent, identity, real, lobe is the root of the hell thing. Sleeping is also a thing of hell. Is there any method of breakthrough? Have! Friends, young masters from mainland China come, in the mainland there are people who sincerely cultivate. I have not seen it yet, but I heard that layman Li Jiaoyuan said, there are people who recite the Buddha throughout the year do not sleep, 24 hours to recite the Buddha, the Buddha. Some people do not trust, people turn to see, of course not wrong, every day so. How did you go to sleep with him? Why can not we? On the Buddhist scriptures are very good, even the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara in the beginning of the Faith has told us is "the inherent sense, which is not capital." Tai, identity, real, lobe is unconfident, not hybrid. If the decision can be terminated, the future has a decision can prove, the problem is that you are determined to go paragraph it or not? You have to break the heart it will be. The true truth is determined to break through this door, break through the old, to tell you, you also have the Buddha's mind, there is good god blessing, do not do it?

Reciting our Buddha Path here, you also have a little experiment. Through this small experiment, I can confidently add to your confidence. Many of the fellow practitioners used to sleep, but also slept for a long time. The result of 36 hours is very gentle, very comfortable, after the recitation is not drowsy, nor want to sleep anymore. This is where you slowly break through, you can have 36 hours full of spirit then you can also 360 days full of spirit, the problem you have to truly breakthrough or not? This most important breakthrough is a factor that is pure heart, pure heart of pure. Why? The head of Tam Tam, the pure heart of a ceiling is not infected, then you can do. In the heart there are defilements, anxiety, are busy, There are many things that do not let go, you still want to spend the life of ordinary people. Of course, it is possible to imagine, distinguish, accept, let go, then you can experience the life of the Bodhisattva Buddha. Not the Bodhisattva Buddhists have no sleep, please tell them, the Sun god has not sleep. Sense of sphere is still, but little sleep time. Celestial sphere has six floors, the more upward it goes, the less sleep time, to the meditation is no longer sleep. The world can do, let alone the Buddha Bodhisattva? We must have faith. Not the Bodhisattva Buddhists have no sleep, please tell them, the Sun god has not sleep. Sense of sphere is still, but little sleep time. Celestial sphere has six floors, the more upward it goes, the less sleep time, to the meditation is no longer sleep. The world can do, let alone the Buddha Bodhisattva? We must have faith. Not the Bodhisattva Buddhists have no sleep, please tell them, the Sun god has not sleep. Sense of sphere is still, but little sleep time. Celestial sphere has six floors, the more upward it goes, the less sleep time, to the meditation is no longer sleep. The world can do, let alone the Buddha Bodhisattva? We must have faith.

The true spiritual practitioner, the fundamental is still the faith-vows, decided to trust themselves. The worldly saint tells us: "Engraving the holy day," the meaning of this saying is that ordinary people can overcome their own delights and then you can sanctify them. In Buddhism, the defilement of Bodhi, so the practitioner must struggle with defilements, must win, can not beat, lose then finished. How can win? Risks, no fear, no fear, no fear of death, you decide to win. Every game is defeated by fear, difficulty of fear, fear of death. Fear is hard, fear of death, fear of death, you definitely failed. The true Bodhisattva Buddha demand protection, the Buddha Bodhisattva praying, you lower the determination of the Bodhisattva Buddha is present, Bodhisattva Buddha day and night around you to protect you. Suffering is the same decision, But decided not to die. By the time you are dying, the Bodhisattva Buddha immediately comes to help you a little. We see in the Elder Scrolls Monastery Nui Pho, you see Dam Dao Supreme Venerable vow to paint, three steps a bow, thousands of miles to bow for a few years to worship, evening to sleep on the land where How many months do you do not get sick? Having suffering, suffering can not stand. The Bodhisattva Buddha came to help him recover from illness. After the disease is gone, then the Bodhisattva Buddha, he continued bowing. Fear of suffering, fear of death, fear of death, how can be out of samsara, how can be born Pure Land? We have to find out the heart disease, just eliminate the heart disease. Buddha can be accomplished, why can not we accomplish? By the time you are dying, the Bodhisattva Buddha immediately comes to help you a little. We see in the Elder Scrolls Monastery Nui Pho, you see Dam Dao Supreme Venerable vow to paint, three steps a bow, thousands of miles to bow for a few years to worship, evening to sleep on the land where How many months do you do not get sick? Having suffering, suffering can not stand. The Bodhisattva Buddha came to help him recover from illness. After the disease is gone, then the Bodhisattva Buddha, he continued bowing. Fear of suffering, fear of death, fear of death, how can be out of samsara, how can be born Pure Land? We have to find out the heart disease, just eliminate the heart disease. Buddha can be accomplished, why can not we accomplish? By the time you are dying, the Bodhisattva Buddha immediately comes to help you a little. We see in the Elder Scrolls Monastery Nui Pho, you see Dam Dao Supreme Venerable vow to paint, three steps a bow, thousands of miles to bow for a few years to worship, evening to sleep on the land where How many months do you do not get sick? Having suffering, suffering can not stand. The Bodhisattva Buddha came to help him recover from illness. After the disease is gone, then the Bodhisattva Buddha, he continued bowing. Fear of suffering, fear of death, fear of death, how can be out of samsara, how can be born Pure Land? We have to find out the heart disease, just eliminate the heart disease. Buddha can be accomplished, why can not we accomplish? Three steps a bow, thousands of miles to bow for a few years to bow, evening to sleep on the land where the bow, many months do not do sick? Having suffering, suffering can not stand. The Bodhisattva Buddha came to help him recover from illness. After the disease is gone, then the Bodhisattva Buddha, he continued bowing. Fear of suffering, fear of death, fear of death, how can be out of samsara, how can be born Pure Land? We have to find out the heart disease, just eliminate the heart disease. Buddha can be accomplished, why can not we accomplish? Three steps a bow, thousands of miles to bow for a few years to bow, evening to sleep on the land where the bow, many months do not do sick? Having suffering, suffering can not stand. The Bodhisattva Buddha came to help him recover from illness. After the disease is gone, then the Bodhisattva Buddha, he continued bowing. Fear of suffering, fear of death, fear of death, how can be out of samsara, how can be born Pure Land? We have to find out the heart disease, just eliminate the heart disease. Buddha can be accomplished, why can not we accomplish? afraid of death, how can be out of samsara, how can be born Pure Land? We have to find out the heart disease, just eliminate the heart disease. Buddha can be accomplished, why can not we accomplish? afraid of death, how can be out of samsara, how can be born Pure Land? We have to find out the heart disease, just eliminate the heart disease. Buddha can be accomplished, why can not we accomplish?
