SANG DUC OF HUMAN-STATUS FOUNDATION AND JAPANESE TRAINING.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH =THICH CHAN TANH.
In July each year, Chinese Buddhism zealously organizes the ultimate relief conference. One is the Vu Lan Bon legal assembly: When the Buddha-like-Ca Mau-ni The Ton was still alive, Muc-kien-inter held a Dharma festival to donate to the Buddha and increased on July 15 of the lunar calendar to save his mother from suffering. of the crow. The second is the Jizō meeting: July 30 of the lunar calendar, the day the Jizō Bodhisattva appears to enter Nirvana in China. Because the Jizō Bodhisattva saves sentient beings in hell, so in July there is a Jizō meeting. In addition, Germany Tathagata also taught Teacher A-nan the method of Du-old Diem Khau to save hungry ghosts in hell. These three congresses, in July in China, tend to come together as one. In this conference, I would like to briefly describe the method of Jizō Bodhisattva.
I- The use of glasses of Chinese growth
1- People's beliefs
In China, Jizō Bodhisattva is respected and revered by many Buddhist monks and lay people. Jizō Bodhisattva promotes the spirit of filial piety, focusing on saving parents. The Chinese people pay special attention to filial piety, the spirit of "careful and long-term access". "Chung" refers to the death of a parent, "far" refers to an ancestor. That is, parents die, they need to be very respectful, worship must be very adept), very close to his method, so in China, Jizō Bodhisattva is specially revered.
In the sutras, though talking about a lot of great Bodhisattvas, the Chinese people are still most familiar with the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara and Jizō Bodhisattva. In my hometown, every 30 July, every house will burn Jizō incense to commemorate him. Usually people practice methods liberation of Buddha-da, when chanting " Address Tibetan Bodhisattva four principles of", or writing to the next life, mostly to signaling merit birth and rearing of two the birth. So in July each year, in addition to the Vu Lan Bon legal conference, there is also the Jizō conference, all the temples are held very loudly. All show that Jizō Bodhisattva has become a vast belief among folk.
We have pure belief in the Three Jewels, we need to understand the merits of Jizō Bodhisattva!
2. Venerable reverence
Jizō Bodhisattva is not only worshiped and admired by the masses, but the monastic monks also specially adore him, I apply for two great masters to prove it.
At the end of the Ming and early Qing dynasties, in the history of Buddhism, there were four famous and talented great masters, namely Tu Bach, Lien Tri, Han Son and Ngự Ich. Thay Ngự Ich is a master of Zen, Law, Thien Thai, and Pure Land. He does not have any sect that he does not promote. He especially revered Jizō Bodhisattva, who made vows before the Bodhisattva. He took the Bhikkhu ordination very early, but made a vow before Jizō Bodhisattva, would like to discharge the Bhikkhu ordination as a Bodhisattva.
Recently there is Grand Master Hoang Nhat. Referring to the teacher, no one does not know, he was originally an artist, then the Buddha was ordained, dedicated to studying the precepts, became the only master who studied the Vinaya in modern times. He also greatly admires Jizō Bodhisattva. One year, he came to Xiamen and met the layman Lu The Mostly blood-stinging the statue of Jizō Bodhisattva, he encouraged him to paint the manifestations of the manifestation of Jizō Bodhisattva. Under each picture, the teacher inscribed praises, and gave the painting everywhere. He appeared at Ta-Ba for 62 years, 24 lower Greece.
The two famous great masters respect the Jizō Bodhisattva like that, and us? Normally, people in Jizō Bodhisattva belief, only know the great vow "hell cannot swear not becoming a Buddha, all sentient beings will witness Bodhi" - his vow to go to hell to save sentient beings - but his lucrative method is unknown. From the praise and admiration of the great virtues, one can see His unthinkable merit. Hope you understand his greatness here, the purpose of this lecture is like that.
II. STATUS-STATUSS IN HOA SON CUIS
China has four famous large mountains, which is the enlightenment of the four great Bodhisattvas. Ngu Dai mountain - Bodhisattva - Van-enemy, Nga Mi mountain - Bo-slapped Pho Hien, Nam Hai Pho Da mountain - Quan The Am Bodhisattva mountain, Cuu Hoa mountain - Jizō Bodhisattva. These four famous large mountains, there are many temples, almost all of which take the Bodhisattva of that mountain as the main object of reverence: The temples and shrines in Ngu Dai Son, all worship the Bodhisattva. Literature-enemy-benefit; The temples and shrines in Pho Da Son all worship the statue of Bodhisattva Quan The Am ... Thus, the four famous mountains are four ashrams that manifest the degrees of the four great Bodhisattvas, also becoming holy for domestic and foreign Buddhists to worship.
Cuu Hoa Son in Thanh Duong district, Anhui province, this mountain was originally named Cuu Tu, when Li Bai of the Tang dynasty came, saw the mountain as beautiful as a flower, changed to Cuu Hoa. During the Tang Dynasty, Chinese Buddhism was like the beautiful sun in the air, Chinese Buddhism passed to Japan, Korea ... There were many monks from Japan, Korea and many other countries came to China to pray. France, or study Confucianism, politics ... At that time, Korea divided into three small countries, ie Tan-la, Cao-verse-li and Bach-Te-Te.
The Prince of the Tan-la country gave birth to his family, his name was Jizō-on-stilts, the 4th year of Trinh Quan, King Duong Thai Tong, went to China to study. At first, he went to consult everywhere, turned to charm for many years, then went to Jiufen Shan, Anhui province in southern China, and found that in the deep mountains there was lowland, he decided to diligently stay here. A long time later, the people of the mountains discovered him. Seeing the monk in the cave, his clothes torn, his life was very miserable; asked, knowing that he was the prince of the Xin-la country, came to China to pray for the dharma, the wealthy landowners of the Zhuge family greatly appreciated, initiated the initiative, built temples and temples to offer him. Owner Cuu Hoa painted the family name Man, extremely rich. Want to build a temple must ask Man Tien to give birth to land. Man was born who greatly admired Jizō-stilts, he asked him how much land he needed, Jizō replied: "Just the shadow of this ca-sa is enough". At that time, Jizō Bodhisattva used divine powers, threw ca-sa up, ca-sa widened, covered all the Nine United States mountain, Man first gave birth to all the Nine United States. Man born the mind to protect the Dharma for him, his son also developed his mind to follow him to ordain, with the legal name Dao Minh, as his attendant. Today, beside the Jizō Bodhisattva statue, there is an old man and a young Bhikkhu, who is the father and son of Man.
The pagoda was completed, scholars everywhere came to study, there were many people coming to study in Tan-la country to make offerings. Cuu Hoa Son is high again, once the pagoda is many, the monks are crowded, the problem of living is a worry, the cooking of rice has to add white soil (this land is smooth white, customary is called the ground shop). The serenity of the monks is hard to imagine, the monks call them "they are emaciated". Buddhists throughout the temples focus only on one prayer of Buddhism, completely abandoning the need to enjoy material things. The virtues of Jizō-stilts and great influence in the Nine United States, the king Tan-la knew, sent people to bring food through offerings. Jizō-stilts always guide the masses to diligently practice the Buddha-da's liberation method. On July 30, in the 26th Khai Yuan Dynasty of the Tang dynasty, he appeared in Nirvana. 99 years. Everyone realized: The Jizō-stilts were the reincarnation of Jizō Bodhisattva, who compassionately manifested in China. The people proclaimed Jizō-stilts as Bodhisattva Jizō. Especially on July 30 every year, Cuu Hoa paints incense sticks with full of flowers. Jizō Bodhisattva himself has a particular predestined relationship, and new people agree with such beliefs. Cuu Hoa painted incense sticks and lanterns filled with flowers. Jizō Bodhisattva himself has a specific predestined relationship, new people agree with such beliefs. Cuu Hoa painted incense sticks and lanterns filled with flowers. Jizō Bodhisattva himself has a particular predestined relationship, and new people agree with such beliefs.
III. LIST OF STORM-STATUSS
1- Nominal explanation
In the Dharma, Bodhisattva according to Germany's establishment of a name, unlike the name of ordinary people, has nothing to do with one's own morality. The Chinese people know the four great Bodhisattvas very well, so they all have words praising each of his symbols, such as: "Great Wisdom Van-enemy-benefit", "great virtue of Samantabhadra", "Great compassion of Quan. Avalokiteshvara "," Jizō's great prayer " May the power of Jizō Bodhisattva is very extensive. In the Buddhist scriptural system of Development there is " Great Practice business ”, when Germany Tathagata performance said his liberation teachings, 10 masses gathered in the conference, hence the name. In the great conference, the Bodhisattvas mostly took the word "Tibet" as the name, such as Nhat Tibet, Nguyet Tib, Vajrayana, Vajra, Tu-di Tibet, Jizō ... Why is it called Jizō? "Geography" is the country, the world, and also "geography1"; "Tibet" means to store, restore2, such as gold mine, silver mine, coal mine, iron mine ... The word "organ" in Buddhism, only for storage in storage. Meaning of the word "local organs", on the one hand is to say "from earth": Geography is one of the four elements (geography, water, fire and wind), capable of undertaking all, all mountains, all things all exist on the earth; all examples of the merit of the Bodhisattva, capable of doing all the hard work for sentient beings. On the other hand, the earth also means "to depend on", all the plants and trees are dependent on the land. Thanks to the growth of the land, which implies that all the merits for self-gain are spared, depending on this Bodhisattva that exists and develops. Jizō Bodhisattva has the ability to contain all merit, the source of all merit, hard work, and saving sentient beings, hence the name Jizō. People often call him Jizō, in the sutras only the name Jizō without the word "King", perhaps Jizō is the son of King Tan-la, so add the word "King" to honor ?
2. Praise merit
Jizō of the Nine Flowers Mountain, just the reincarnation of Jizō Bodhisattva, we need to learn his true merit. The Killing Sutra record: "Since the beginning of the mind, has gone through an infinite amount of time, it is impossible to think of A-increase-period-life, as long as Slapping-BA-elegant Hai, full merit, but because of the inheritance , ingenious means appear throughout all ten directions of the world ". According to the texts, since Jizō's Bodhisattva started to practice spiritual practice up to now, it has been a long and long time - boundless to think of A-increase-period-life. Merit and wisdom compared to the Tathagata are not two different. Slapping-she-elegant only for the most necessary - Buddha's mind. Slapping-Ba-elegant Hai envisioned great enlightenment, great wisdom of the Buddha, as vast as the ocean. Jizō Bodhisattva has gone through countless eons of spiritual practice, soon attaining the sea of Buddha's wisdom, fullness and fullness of merit, which should have been a Buddha for a long time. But the Bodhisattva's aspiration needs to end all sentient beings, so he hides his true merit, uses his great power to vow, self-powers in, show up everywhere to declare the liberation method of the Buddha-da, save people, heaven. Kinh Lang-Old records: There is a great compassion Bodhisattva, will not become Buddha forever. This is not due to poor qualifications, or relaxation on the path of enlightenment, but due to the great compassion, aspiration to all sentient beings, so the merit is equal to the Buddha, without manifesting the Buddha body. , still embodied the Bodhisattva, to free sentient beings in the ten directions.
The merit of the Jizō Bodhisattva is equal to that of the Buddha, so believing the merit of the Bodhisattva cannot be thought of. Like the Ten Wheel Book 1 reads: "For the great Bodhisattvas, the mind will return to take refuge in hundreds of lives, commend and chant the holy sign, worship offerings, pray, not equal to someone just moments, mind Back to lean on, confess to recite the holy sign, worship Jizō Bodhisattva, pray for anything, and be satisfied ... Like jade Nhu Y, as well as restoring ". The sutras also recorded: If the faith comes back to take refuge in the great Bodhisattvas, such as Van-enemy-benefit, Di-lặc ..., confessing the holy sign, worshiping, praying, such as praying for good health, long life , to get rich, or to eliminate defilements ...; praying to the great Bodhisattvas for hundreds of lives, not equal to having people in the meal period - in a short time the mind returns to relying on Jizō Bodhisattva, confessing the holy sign, respectfully revering the great merits of You, if you pray anything, will be fulfilled, achieve aspirations. This is the propaganda method of the Bodhisattva Jizō, so especially praising his triumphant merits. Like Nhu Y jade, or Ma-ni jade, this jewel is capable of giving birth to everything, fully fulfilling what I wish for. The saving aspiration of Jizō Bodhisattva, also fully fulfills the wishes of sentient beings. Like the poor man who encounters a treasure, instantly becomes rich, everything exists. If any sentient being encounters a lot of hardship, is not free, practice the Jizō practice, all of a sudden they will all be satisfied. In addition, according to the sutras also fully satisfy the wishes of sentient beings. Like the poor man who encounters a treasure, instantly becomes rich, everything exists. If any sentient being encounters a lot of hardship, is not free, practice the Jizō practice, all of a sudden they will all be satisfied. In addition, according to the sutra also fully satisfy the wishes of sentient beings. Like the poor man who encounters a treasure, instantly becomes rich, everything has. If any sentient being encounters a lot of hardship, is not free, practice the Jizō practice, all of a sudden they will all be satisfied. In addition, according to the sutras Jizō Ten Thousand Bodhisattva, Jizō Bodhisattva like Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, manifests immeasurable body in all ten directions of the world, speaking immeasurable methods of practice, bringing sentient beings out of immeasurable suffering.
Jizō Bodhisattva also has a unique merit, which is derived from his name. The Sutta of the Ten Wheel Book 1 reads: "It is capable of helping all grass, trees ... flowers and flowers on the earth to grow." People in the countryside, their wish is a good harvest. The Jizō Bodhisattva is capable of fulfilling the wishes of sentient beings, nurturing all the fruits, trees, and things that grow on the earth, and are plentifully harvested. This sutta is translated, taught by few people, this particular merit of Jizō Bodhisattva few people pay attention. Understanding this, the farmer should sincerely pray and thank Him.
Jizō Bodhisattva also cures to heal illnesses. The Tu-Di Tibet Sutra states: "The master (Bodhisattva Jizō) should be a great physician, a great physician for all sentient beings. Why? Because the teacher's body is a wonderful and wonderful medicine ”. Medicine of the old days, mainly plants on the ground and minerals in the ground, so the merit of Jizō Bodhisattva, like the Medicine Buddha. Not only is the great medicine king, but also the great medicine, has the ability to help increase mental growth, abundant health, and eliminate diseases for sentient beings. If you see the Bodhisattva, close to Him, all illnesses - body disease, sickness, life and death, defilement and sickness will be eliminated, all merits are fulfilled.
Finally, is what we all know, the classics Address Tibetan Bodhisattva Bon Prayer Gong Germany : "Hell is not all who swear not become a Buddha." According to the Jizō Bodhisattva Sutta , the Jizō Bodhisattva vows to eliminate all sentient beings in hell. Beings suffering the most suffering must include sentient beings in hell, the Bodhisattva's great aspiration, the more they have to work to save sentient beings who suffer this much.
IV. SPECIAL OFFICIALS OF STANDARDS OF GEOGRAPHY
1. Thi appears into the dirty world
All Bodhisattvas, such as Bodhisattva Quan The Am, appear to save sentient beings in this world, take the form of lay people at home, such as General Bach Y Dai Si, or manifest human, heaven ... ; The Bodhisattva Van-enemy Master-pupil displays the pupil; Samantabhadra Bodhisattva also displays the general form of the lay person at home. Only Jizō Bodhisattva shows the appearance of renunciation. This issue, very few people noticed. So why did Jizō Bodhisattva show the appearance of renunciants? To clarify this issue, I would like to take two meanings of "manifesting into the dirty world and manifesting Thanh Van" to say. Although the Jizō Bodhisattva manifests throughout the world in the ten directions, liberating sentient beings, but he is especially compassionate manifesting in this ugly world, the degree of suffering sentient beings. The Ten Wheel Book 1 says: "Jizō Bodhisattva has been from countless eons in countless eons, in the world of the five-fold, evil world, without Buddha, saving sentient beings3". The Jizō Bodhisattva generates an infinite amount of eons in the world, all in the evil world to save sentient beings, the more evil and evil the world wants to save, the more suffering sentient beings will want. He also appeared to the world without Dharma, where sentient beings suffer the most, to benefit them. The power of the Bodhisattvas are not the same, the great compassionate aspiration of Jizō Bodhisattvas, focusing on saving sentient beings in the evil world. The Ten Wheel book 1 records: "I now study according to the Buddha's aspiration, to enter the dirty world to attain Supreme Bodhi". Buddha Shakyamuni appeared into the dirty world, and also manifested as a Buddha in this world. Jizō Bodhisattva wants to follow the Buddha's father Shakyamuni Buddha, take a vow to become a Buddha in this dirty world, save sentient beings in this dirty world, and can see that he is the true heir. the spirit of Germany like-ca Mau-ni Tathagata.
2. Thi Thanh Van
Jizō Bodhisattva is a great Bodhisattva, the merit of being equal to the Buddha, has reached the end of his goal. In the conference of Germany Thich Ca Mau-ni Tathagata in the world of Ta-Ba, He manifested the appearance of renunciation education, the Ten Wheel Book 1 reads: "Using divine power, manifest Thanh Van body". Thanh Van is the Buddhist disciple, this is the characteristic of Jizō Bodhisattva. Buddhist Sutras Development records: Some pure worlds have no Hinayana, nor do they have renunciation. The good father Thich Ca Mau-ni Thế Tôn appeared to become a Buddha in this evil world, showing the appearance of renunciation; Dharma in the evil realm has a close relationship with them, renunciation of education. Jizō Bodhisattva imitated the example of Shakyamuni Buddha, also showed the general emancipation education, vowed to become a Buddha in the world of evil. Buddhism in the world is evil and evil, there are renunciation, can be said to be very appropriate for the times, but also has a tendency to be good. On the other hand, this has a particularly positive significance: In this wicked world sentient beings from morning to night, if not contending, they also gain benefits, life is busy, in a hurry, seeking personal benefits ..., society is full of crime and darkness. In the dark and unclean world, giving them light and hope, Shakyamuni Buddha appeared to come into this world, ordained as a Buddha. Kinh The Ten Wheel record: Monks and generals of the eminent beings, is an exemplary pure general of the evil world. In this not-so-ideal society, building up a pure sangha, making people look, see the purity of the teachers, their body and mind are also purified. Dharma adapt to the society, in order to propagate the Fa-rectification in the evil and evil world, it is necessary to have them pure renunciation, pure solemn liberation manifestations. Shakyamuni Buddha and Jizō Bodhisattva, showing up in the world of evil, righteous thoughts. Monasticism has no own possessions, taking alms to maintain a temporary fake body, in order to maintain the legal body of wisdom, not for enjoyment, and also to minimize the troublesome consequences brought about by economic problems. Secondly, showing the appearance of renunciation, men not getting married, women not getting married, unlike lay people because the bond binding husband and wife arose so many painful conflicts. The boundless crime of the evil life years ago, mainly caused by the possession of men and women and the economy. The form of renunciation, which is to propose solving the difficulties and suffering of the evil world, proceeds to establish a plan to free all defilements and bind the body and mind. If you do not achieve the desired goal, you also know the true direction of liberating suffering. So, the Dharma in the world of evil, focus is on renunciation sex education; only the Pure Land may not have them, because they no longer suffer. The Jizō Bodhisattva manifests the emanation of the liberation of sentient beings in the Ta-Ba realm, which has a particular meaning, so the beings in this evil world are very close to Jizō Bodhisattva. He not only promotes filial piety and liberation from parents, but also manifests Thanh Van,
V. RESCUE BEHAVIORS NOT TO BE DONE INTO THE TERRITORY
Jizō Bodhisattva appears to save sentient beings in the evil life years ago, the most suffering beings are still sentient beings in hell, so his compassion, everyone knows, is to save sentient beings in hell road. But "salvation, freeing suffering sentient beings in hell" is not the only way, nor the most ideal solution. The most important and pressing thing is how to prevent sentient beings from falling into hell forever. This is the best way to save sentient beings. As a good doctor, it is not necessary to treat or save patients, but to teach people to treat the body, maintain health, and prevent disease. We only know the Jizō Bodhisattva to save sentient beings in hell, but do not know that he also devotes himself to teaching sentient beings, what to stop, what to do, to be able not to fall into hell.
"The horse is too late to get to the abyss, it is too slow to get out in the middle of the stream!"
1- Great crime must definitely fall into Hell No-Cock
What poor do you fall in hell? The most miserable hell is the Indestructible prison (called Abhidharma by India). Beijing Address Tibetan Bodhisattva Bon Prayer say there are many hell names. Hell, there is great fire everywhere, iron beds are made of copper the lowest level is the Abel hell. Causing serious negative karma, just die immediately fall into hell; the time of suffering in hell, also there is no interruption, so it has the name of Indestructible Hell. The Buddhist family said that creating a good karma will get good retribution, sowing a bad cause will meet evil results, creating severe negative karma will fall into hell. But creating hell karma, is it certain to fall to hell? There are negative karma to hell, but the next life is not bound to hell. Everyone has a hellish karma, which is a negative karma created in the previous life; This birth, when born until the time to close the eyes and hands, man cannot help but create hell, but is not bound to hell. If there is a predestined relationship with good merit than negative karma, sometimes born in heaven, the human realm (but not evil karma is not lost). However, if you have created a very serious negative karma, unless you do not commit any more - instant harm - whether you cultivate merit or repent, it cannot be saved. For example, someone who falls into a dangerous illness, must die, and gets a rather serious illness. If he or she meets a good doctor or medicine, there is still a ray of hope for healing; But if the "new disease" is also terminally ill, even Hua Da cannot be saved. Beings in a life of evil years ago, the opportunity to create bad karma is very much, dangerous to life is not small. So it is necessary to clearly distinguish between good and evil karma, first to realize clearly bad karma, to be able to pay attention not to do, avoid suffering in hell. Unless you do not commit any more - instant peril - whether you cultivate merit or repent, you cannot save. For example, someone who falls into a dangerous illness, must die, and gets a rather serious illness. If they meet a good doctor or medicine, there is still a ray of hope for healing; But if the "new disease" is also terminally ill, even Hua Da cannot be saved.

Beings in a life of evil years ago, the opportunity to create bad karma is very much, dangerous to life is not small. Therefore, it is necessary to distinguish between good and evil karma, first to realize clearly bad karma, to be able to pay attention not to do, avoid suffering in hell. Even Hoa Da could not save it. Beings in a life of evil years ago, the opportunity to create bad karma is very much, dangerous to their life is not small. Therefore, it is necessary to distinguish between good and evil karma, first to realize clearly bad karma, to be able to pay attention not to do, avoid suffering in hell. Even Hoa Da could not save it. Beings in a life of evil years ago, the opportunity to create bad karma is very much, dangerous to life is not small. So it is necessary to clearly distinguish between good and evil karma, first to realize clearly bad karma, to be able to pay attention not to do, avoid suffering in hell.
Extremely heavy bad karma falls into the Indestructible Hell, in the sutras divided into two categories:
A. Eleven types of bad karma:
The Ten Wheel book 3 states: "Causing the five-pointlessness and near the Five Indestructible - four basic crimes - along with two crimes of legal defamation, suspicion of the Three-person treasure (...) In these 11 crimes, only one, when the body vandalism, immediately fall into the Great Hell No-cock ". These eleven types of felony, divided into five No-cockroaches, four basic precepts and defamation of the Dharma and suspicion of the Three Jewels. Five sins of No-cockroach, just commit one of the year, will definitely fall into the great Hell of No-cockroach. The five innocents are: First, kill your father. Second, kill your mother. Parents were born, nurtured and taught us, from childhood to adulthood, graciously like a mountain. In worldly terms, killing the parents, apparently the animal's behavior; in the criminal offense against contrary, harming parents, is also the worst. Third, kill A-la-Han: The practice level of liberation method of the Buddha-da attains Arahantship, is the four results (Tu-da-complete, Tu-da-function, A-na-function and A-la-Han) saints, if you kill him, the crime is not tolerated. Fourth, make the Buddha's body bleed: When the Buddha was still alive, De-Ba-att-da wanted to harm him, rolling down the stone from the mountain, with the crazy idea of crushing him. But the protector stopped the stone, the stone rolled halfway to meet other rocks, the impact broke the rock, a small piece hit his lower leg, bleed, thus committing the crime of becoming the Buddha body. bleeding (This we need to understand, the Buddha has appeared to enter Nirvana now, but if intentionally beating the temple, destroying the statue, destroying the scriptures are also committing this crime). Fifth, destroying harmony increases: Malice destroys the pure harmony of the sangha, divides the harmony, will create a serious crime of Indirect. The last three crimes are felony the Buddha said. In fact, in the evil life years ago, people committing the year of not being more helpless. The parents who kill are few; causing the Buddha's body to bleed. In addition to De-Ba-Achievement, there was no second person (not including those who intentionally smashed the pagoda, breaking the statue ...); Not many people have the ability to destroy the pure harmony of the sangha; also kill saints A-la-Han, this life belongs to the end of the French end, the saintly A-la-Han rarely appears in the world, the crime of killing A la-drought is few. Therefore, only the vicinity of No-Cockroaches, the four basic crimes, are killing creatures, stealing, adultery and lying, constituting the crime of Indirect Hell. The monastic renunciation, if committing these four basic crimes, immediately expelled from the sangha of pure harmony, like a tree with all its roots cut off, unable to grow any more; Like a corpse in the sea, the sea is never contained. If you commit mistakes that are not basic crimes, or have just committed the instant, instant fusion, pleading with the monks, happily willing to judge the body; Although in the present life, it is impossible to take birth and death, the result of sainthood, but still can depend on the Sangha, called studying with them Sa-di. If you do not know repentance, you will be excluded from the sangha. They are at home or renunciation, if you commit the basic crimes of near-Indestructibility, have committed immediately perverted, difficult to repent. In which killing (Buddha is one that cannot be killed by others, he is born or entered Nirvana, which is just a manifestation), killing the Pratyekabuddha (Pratyekabuddha4) is the worst of sin close. Stealing and stealing things from the three jewels are the heaviest; The objects of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha, donated by people who generate good hearts, will commit a very serious sin if taken. Adultery, rape of the Bhikkhu-stilts-ni has proven A-la-drought is the heaviest, The Bhikkhu-stilts-ni had practiced attaining A-la-Han, if forced forcibly, would surely fall into the Indestructible hell. Lying, saying untruthful words, lack of righteous thoughts, adding less right and left things in the sangha, causing the masses to lose their purity and peace, this crime is the worst. All the merits of the world, pure liberation, death and death, practicing Bodhisattva's behavior, until becoming a Buddha, are all thanks to the Three Jewels. In these four serious crimes, destroying the Three Jewels, making the Three Jewels lose their purity, causing great harm. In addition, the third crime (lying) has two types, seemingly not great, really very important. All the merits of the world, pure liberation, death and death, practicing Bodhisattva's behavior, until becoming a Buddha, are thanks to the Three Jewels. In these four serious crimes, destroying the Three Jewels, making the Three Jewels lose their purity, causing great harm. In addition, the third crime (lying) has two types, seemingly not great, really very important.

In these four serious crimes, destroying the Three Jewels, making the Three Jewels lose their purity, causing great harm. In addition, the third crime (lying) has two types, seemingly not great, really very important.
1. Defamation of the law:
The pagans defame the righteousness of the Dharma because they do not understand the Dhamma, speak wildly, like a snake swallowing green moths, and cats eat rats. But the disciple practices the Buddha's liberation method - the momentum that destroys the righteous house built by his father, as if it were in the lion's body that eats the lion's flesh, incomparable poverty. We believe in the Blessed One, practicing according to His method of liberation, absolutely must not destroy the Dharma. There are lay wizards, who have a lot of respect for Dharma, who absolutely do not have the mind to destroy the righteousness, but sometimes destroy them without their own knowledge. In Buddhism, there are Thanh Van Mahayana, Dependent Origination, Bodhisattva (Mahayana). Practicing according to Thanh Van Thua, praising, praising what you practice, and saying that Mahayana is not Buddha said, this is destroying the Dharma. Mahayana cultivators, criticizing Tieu Hinay, that France is not worth learning, also belongs to the crime of destroying the law. Focus only on observing morality, rejecting meditation and cultivating wisdom; or focus on meditation, eliminate morality and practice wisdom; or put heavy practice on wisdom, abolish precepts and meditation ..., see such mistakes, advise people not to learn, this is destroying the righteous law. There are people, who only study and practice one method, contempt for another method, think that that method is small and not worth learning, if it is not useful to learn, all defame the Fa-rectification. One method is enough, so what does the Tathagata teach 84,000 methods to do? Focusing on a method, contempt for other disciplines, bringing sentient beings into the insane, deluded understanding, lost in the wrong way, blinded sentient beings ... is creating a serious crime of Indirect Prison. Focus only on observing morality, rejecting meditation and cultivating wisdom; or focus on meditation, eliminate morality and practice wisdom; or put heavy practice on wisdom, abolish precepts and meditation ..., see such mistakes, advise people not to learn, this is destroying the righteous law. There are people, who only study and practice one method, contempt for another one, think that that method is small and not worth learning, if it is not useful to learn, all defame the Fa-rectification. One method is enough, so what does the Tathagata teach 84,000 methods to do? Focusing on a method, contempt for other disciplines, bringing sentient beings into insane understanding, deluding, straying into evil ways, blinding sentient beings ... is creating a serious crime of Indirect Prison. Focus only on observing morality, rejecting meditation and cultivating wisdom; or focus on meditation, eliminate morality and practice wisdom; or put heavily to practice wisdom, remove precepts and meditate ..., see such mistakes, advise people not to study, this is destroying the righteous law. There are people, who only study and practice one method, contempt for another method, think that that method is small and not worth learning, if it is not useful to learn, all defame the Fa-rectification.

2. Doubt of the Three Jewels:
The three jewels are Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha, where the disciples return to the Buddha. Have returned to take refuge in the Three Jewels, maintain the pure Dharma precepts, whether at home or ordained, but also believe in demons of other religions, giving them equal to the Buddha, or transcending Buddha; see the scriptures of the pagan, or better than Three organs5, Twelve categories of scripture of Germany As Lai; relying on non-believers, who do not have pure faith with the monastic renunciation ... These people are incompatible with the Dharma, are skeptical of the Three Jewels, manifested by the act of not having pure faith. Some people, who cannot distinguish between gods and Buddhas, have returned to take refuge in the Three Noble Truths, but they still have controversial arguments: What is the three religions of the same religion? The unified five religions? To assume that all religions teach good people, all can belief, this is an act of betrayal of their ideal. Not clear right or left, irrespective of the Buddha deity as such, belongs to the serious crime of No-cockroach because of suspicion of the Three-Throne Treasure. Murder, theft, is not certain to fall to hell, but if you commit any one of the 11 types of evil above, it will be done immediately.
B. The crusades:
Beijing Cross London vol 4 stated: "In the decade of the evil moral, if he commits one or all, and all things healthy has practiced previously, were destroyed destruction all, when dead certain will fall right into hell Indirect ". Rotation means breaking. Capable of destroying all the merit of goodness, called "evil rotation". Ten evil rotations means 10 bad deeds, if committing one, or all, all good merits cultivated before, will be completely destroyed. Cross evil rotation: Disparaging A-lan-elegant (pagoda); other redundant (three); glaring, harming the teacher Tì-stilts (there are two); invade, take the pure things of monks and monks breaking the precepts; harm the mage; misappropriating things of the teachers; destroy the temple to chase the monks.
1. Disparaging A-lan-elegant:
A-lan-elegant Indian, which means a peaceful, quiet place with no fight. Ranks renunciation in education in the place of tranquility pure monastic practice, called A-lan-elegant Tì-stilts, the Chinese call closed practice. The Buddha said that monks have three classes: One, who specializes in meditation practice, diligently practices only contemplation, honestly uses the exercises, to achieve the goal of eliminating the hope of witnessing holy results. Two, the reader chants research, such as reading chant to study the Great Tripitaka ... Three, he is the Buddha, devote himself to serving the monks, doing the blessings of cultivation, such as building temples, being a bishop, guests ... Of these three things, of course, the practice of meditation is most appreciated. Monks practice meditation, stay in the temple, at least go out, concentrate on practicing meditation and cultivate wisdom, end up in samsara, freeing all attachments. Also develop the mind to serve the monks, the temples, while cultivating blessings, but not the main job of renunciants. Study and study, also because want to use the practice, but if only around on words, in fact, it is not the ideal of the true renunciant of sex. So, A-lan-elegant Tì-stilts, diligently meditating, this position was allowed by the Buddha to receive good offerings.
When the Tathagata is still alive, all members of the sangha must follow them, if true practice of meditation, wisdom, to an important stage, allows him to be temporarily free, that is not living according to them is fine. If someone sees that but destroys Tì-stilts A-lan-elegant, angry at one of 10 evil rotation. Because for the true ones who practice the liberation method of the Buddha-da, the cessation of samsara, not only must not be an obstacle, but should condition them to attain attainment. Abandoning, obstructing spiritual practice, is the biggest goal of those who are trying to destroy Buddhism.
2. Disparaging other excesses:
The Buddhist teachings are divided into three yanas - Thanh Van Mahayana, Pratyekabuddhais, and Bodhisattva. People cultivating Thanh Van redundant, decry more Duyen Sensory, Bodhisattva excess; the tu Duyen sensory redundancy, disparaging Thanh Van excess, Bodhisattva excess; the Bodhisattva, redundant, disparaging Thanh Van surplus, Duyen-sensed. These three classes, all destroy the righteous law, are the three types of the ten evil rotations.
3. Slamming, harming the Monk-stilts:
There are two. One, glaring, harming the monk is really learning, truly virtuous, truly religious, like cursing him, beating him, or trying to make him lose his freedom, security, add many kinds of harm . There are some bad bhikkhus, manipulating the local evil forces, hiding under the guidance of the tenants, trying to take advantage of the evil forces, harming, and destroying talented and talented monks, aim to appropriate In addition, there are some people who despise, resentment, rape, harm the Bhikkhu-stilts, claim that he is not a true renunciant of sex, not worthy of respect. Self-defense forced to harm a virtuous Bhikkhu-stilts, of course creating karma, but what is the crime of harming the Monk-stilts? Need to know, even though this monk broke the precepts, as long as he is still alive in the sangha, does not lose the status of the monk, if I stare, contempt, harm, is still bad karma. I would like to cite Thailand: Buddhism in Thailand is the state religion, the monastics are not all holy. For example, a monk goes out to break the law, the police will not arrest immediately, because he is still wearing a cassette, still in the position of a Bhikkhu-stilts; The police will follow him to the temple, report the matter to the resident teacher, wait for the monks to decide, cancel his status as a Bhikkhu, take back his robe, then the police will arrest. This is the living proof of venerating the Bhikkhu-stilts. For the Bhikkhu-stilts breaking the world, breaking the law, also not being punished, looked down on, harm. So, using illegal tricks against the teacher Tì-stilts to break the world, is also evil rotation. For example, a monk goes out to break the law, the police will not arrest immediately, because he is still wearing a cassette, still in the position of a Bhikkhu-stilts; The police will follow him to the temple, report the matter to the resident teacher, wait for the monks to decide, cancel his status as a Bhikkhu, take back his robe, then the police will arrest him. This is the living proof of venerating the Bhikkhu-stilts. For the Bhikkhu-stilts breaking the world, breaking the law, also not being punished, despised, harmful. So, using illegal tricks against the teacher Tì-stilts to break the world, is also evil rotation. For example, a monk goes out to break the law, the police will not arrest immediately, because he is still wearing a cassette, still in the position of a Bhikkhu-stilts; The police will follow him to the temple, report the matter to the resident teacher, wait for the monks to decide, cancel his status as a Bhikkhu, take back his robe, then the police will arrest. This is the living proof of venerating the Bhikkhu-stilts. For the Bhikkhu-stilts breaking the world, breaking the law, also not being punished, looked down on, harmed. So, using illegal tricks against the teacher Tì-stilts to break the world, is also evil rotation. This is the living proof of venerating the Monks. For the Bhikkhu-stilts breaking the world, breaking the law, also not being punished, looked down on, harmed. So, using illegal tricks against the teacher Tì-stilts to break the world, is also evil rotation. This is the living proof of venerating the Bhikkhu-stilts. For the Bhikkhu-stilts breaking the world, breaking the law, also not being punished, looked down on, harmed. So, using illegal tricks against the teacher Tì-stilts to break the world, is also evil rotation.
4. Trespassing and taking over the pure things of monks and monks breaking the precepts:
There are bad monks, inciting sex, supporting the dark forces, that often claim to protect the dharma. Giving hands to bad monks, taking over the pagodas, the material ... of monks and monks breaking the precepts, the appearance looks like supporting the monk, but if it is to support bad monks, it is indeed created. bad karma.
5. Harming mages:
Harm the shamans preaching, sermons, promoting lucrative Dharma. Previously, the shaman Thien Hi, the magician disciple De Nhan, went to Guiyang (China) to teach and teach sutras in a small temple in Kinh Linh. The magus preached very well, the audience came to listen to a lot of people, so there were people who were jealous, colluding with the government officials, slandering him that he was a delinquent, and had to be driven away immediately, this is an example of harming the magus. Misappropriation of things from the teachers:
Stealing possessions of the renunciant sex, is also a serious crime Indiscriminate hell. From the end of the Qing Dynasty, the assets of the temples in China, whether accidentally or intentionally, they were all considered to be public, forcibly taken. There is nothing people can not do, always borrow the name of building schools, invading temple property. Or, seeing the local government neglect, immediately take advantage of the power, usurp temples. There are some who say they use the temple to build schools, they just borrowed an excuse, but in reality they all take it for their own. The pagoda is the religious center of the people, should be serene and serene. Which nation has such a behavior, that is, it does not respect religious freedom.
The churches of the European and American countries are also good, the great monasteries of Japan are fine, the days are usually empty, but there is not enough space for holidays! Temples and cathedrals are the centers of beliefs of the people, this place teaches people to tend to goodness, if considered wasteful, spoiled for misappropriation, that is, one of the 10 evil rotations. If you keep creating such bad karma, is it possible to achieve good results?
6. Destroying temples to chase monks:
Destroying all the temples, chasing away the monks, this is extremely great negative karma.
These seven categories - ten evil rotations, whatever you do, the crime is great, sure to fall to the Indestructible Hell. Eleven types of crimes and ten crimes, are the human hell. No one wants me to fall into the Freeze Hell. Want not to fall into it, need to know the conditions that lead to fall. Do not cause these bad karma, you will definitely not encounter bad retribution, not fall into the Indestructible Hell.
C. Respect the Monk-stilts, do not scold the destruction:
In the lay family, to respectfully ordain renunciation, not be yelled at destruction. The Ten Wheel Book 3, The Buddha taught: "Sentient beings, generate mind to ordain according to my righteousness, shave off hair, put on a robe, he maintains the precepts, does not observe precepts, even has no precepts. But all heaven, people, a-tu-la ... according to the law of the world, not even allowed to beat, scold, kill ... what is not the law! " Phat mind to leave the secular family to live in the loving house of the Dharma, shave off the hair, put on a robe, that is to leave home. But there are also several types of renunciation: There is a precepts, a taste that breaks the world, and there is no gender. Why call without gender? Despite the appearance of renunciation, but relying on those who refuse to practice the liberation method of Buddha-da, do not take precepts, arbitrarily put on y ca-sa, seems to be the monk. According to the law of the state, what crime will be punished. But everyone who ordained the ordination, transgression or not being gender-neutral, if it is illegal, nor may they be beaten, imprisoned, or killed. According to the legitimate law of the state, it is not allowed to do so, what is the penalty for injustice not in accordance with the law? In short, no matter what, just take the appearance of a monk, live in the sangha, do not allow torture, persecution under secular or illegal laws. In the Buddhist Dharma there is a way to handle, as mentioned above, if the monk in Thailand, if he breaks the law, will be resolved by the masses, deprived of Ca-sa, not to live in a pure sangha of harmony. After that, the national law will be punished. Because of honoring the Three Noble Truths, it is forbidden to use the law to scold and torture in a secular way. Even if it is not allowed, what is the penalty for injustice? In short, no matter what, just take the appearance of a monk, live in the sangha, do not allow torture, persecution under secular or illegal laws. In the Dharma, there is a way to deal with, as mentioned above, if the monk in Thailand, if he breaks the law, is settled by the masses, deprived of a cassette, not to live in a pure sangha of harmony. After that, the national law will be punished. Because of honoring the Three Noble Truths, it is forbidden to use the law to scold and torture in a secular way. Even if it is not allowed, what is the penalty for injustice? In short, no matter what, just take the appearance of a monk, live in the sangha, do not allow torture, persecution under secular or illegal laws. In the Dharma, there is a way to deal with, as mentioned above, if the monk in Thailand, if he breaks the law, is settled by the masses, deprived of a cassette, not to live in a pure sangha of harmony. After that, the national law will be punished. Because of honoring the Three Jewels, it is forbidden to use the law to scold and torture in a secular way. If the monastic person in Thailand, if he violates the law, is settled by the monk, deprived of Ca-sa, does not allow him to live in a pure and harmonious sangha, then he will receive the national punishment. Because of honoring the Three Noble Truths, it is forbidden to use the law to scold and torture in a secular way. If the monastic person in Thailand, if he violates the law, is settled by the monk, deprived of Ca-sa, does not allow him to live in a pure and harmonious sangha, then he will receive the national punishment. Because of honoring the Three Jewels, it is forbidden to use the law to scold and torture in a secular way.
Pure monastic precepts, of course, do not allow illegal use of secular reprimand and punishment. How about the monks who break the world, why do not allow the law or the illegal worldly to reprimand and punish them? This issue has very profound implications. The Ten Wheel book 3, Germany Tathagata said: "Monks break the world to do evil, although hidden in our precepts, but he is just dead dead, but the German renunciation is still a little saved". Again teaching: "Although the monk breaks the morality, but sentient beings see his appearance, arise 10 kinds of victorious thoughts, and will reap precious merits: reciting Buddha's name, reciting Dhamma. , recite the increase, recite the world, recite the gift, recite the ring, recite the renunciation, recite the renunciation, the wisdom concept, the root concept is available ". According to the meaning of the text: Monks break the precepts, like a dead corpse (in this life there is no possibility of practicing the results), the great sea of Dharma, can not tolerate him, so it is better to get out. pure monk But monks commit wrongdoing, before having had time to ordain in the sangha; Although currently breaking the world, But the moral precepts were still a bit. In short, monks destroy the precepts is not destroying all good precepts, there is still some merit! Like the previous pot filled with aromatherapy, although taking all the aromas, but still a little fragrance still remains. Monks break the precepts, thanks to the previous ordination, so there is still some merit, still capable of making those who see the 10 arising of victorious thoughts, increasing merit and wisdom. Speaking of which, the masses reconsidered themselves. Now that we know that studying Buddhism, or pretending to have a relatively good level of Dharma, has maintained the Five Principles of Morality or Bodhisattva, but what is the reason that helps us to believe in Buddha at first? Of course, there are some who meet the great virtues and shamans who arose in their beliefs and turned to rely on the Dharma; There are a few moments in the homeland, seeing the monks who are not very famous, but thanks to that, gradually the dhamma afflicted with that position that generated mind to practice the liberation method of Buddha-da; or pretend that the monks are not doing anything - breaking precepts or precepts, perhaps the first impression is not very good, but it helps you generate a good view, know there is Buddha, have dharma, have monks, Plant the seeds of the present practice. So, the broken Buddha image, the corrupted scriptures, the renunciants who break the precepts, are capable of helping sentient beings to have pure faith in the Three Jewels. Thus, monks break the world, limitless, capable of helping people generate merit, growth victorious thinking. As if I remember thinking of the unthinkable merit of the Three Noble Truths, remember to think about precepts, generosity, the merit of patience, arousing the mind of wanting to leave home, away from afflictions, thinking of seeking wisdom, good roots. cultivated before. So, standing on the stance of the monk, Monks break the precepts, do evil deeds, so expel them from the sangha; But still standing on the side of the believers, he is still capable of helping people to increase merit, to bless living beings. In a nutshell, the monk keeps a pure dharma precepts, of course ideal, the more cultivated the mind to worship and respect; And the teacher breaks the precepts, even if he knows, the lay family is not allowed to curse, harm, or imprison him, because this behavior is creating pity for the sangha. The Jizō Bodhisattva appeared in this evil realm of five years ago, appearing as a monk, doing the work of manifesting the compassionate spirit of saving sentient beings of the Bodhisattvas, letting everyone know what it means to shave off the beard. hair, wearing robes, living in the association of pure mortal beings, is good or bad, so keep the beautiful image of the monk living a mindful life. If a certain monk loses the status of a monk, but is still alive in the sangha, we may not praise, offer, and support, but absolutely must not use tricks to scold or harm. , whether in front or behind. Otherwise, it has a negative influence on the Dharma, the invisible will constitute a grave sin of destroying the Three Jewels.
Jizō's Bodhisattva saves sentient beings from falling in hell, but still pays special attention to how sentient beings are from hell. Want not to fall to hell, can be generalized as eight words: "Respect for the Three Jewels, Deep Believe Cause and Effect". These words, the monk living a mindful life and at the home of the disciple of the Buddha, Jizō's Bodhisattva appears to emerge into the dirty world of sentient beings, nor out of this. In particular, the most attention, especially how to respect the Dharma, respect the Sangha, is able to uphold the Dharma, keep the Buddha Dharma existing in the world to save sentient beings, make them benefit and bathe in the peaceful legal stream of the Buddha Buddha Shakyamuni Buddha appeared to become a Buddha in this world, showing his ordination, sacrificing his house, family, property ... to become the Righteous Sense. The disciples followed him to practice, form the monastic monastic order of Buddhism. The Sangha is one of the three precious persons, the teachers are very important in the Dharma. ordained them ordained, into a pure union for their benefits. If the internal congregation is chaotic, lay people in the house do not know the internal situation, use all the nefarious tricks to "intervene", resulting in increased difficulties for the sangha, making the sangha not harmonious, crushing energy, the power to save sentient beings. The Jizō Sutra practice clearly shows that, regardless of whether it is 11 serious crimes to hell, or 10 crimes to hell, the most important is the serious crime defaming the Dharma, persecuting the monk, defaming local practitioners liberation of Buddha-da, to invade their material damage increases ... Because this is the dharma and increase of the Buddhist sangha. If Buddhism in the world tries to destroy the pure appearance of the Tathagata messengers, can it promote the great use of saving sentient beings? For example, a patriot, who cannot be unfaithful to his country, is even less able to go abroad to preach that his country is not good. This behavior only makes the country chaotic, making the country more in danger, he is a criminal of the country. Buddhism is the same, true people have pure faith in Buddhism, but destroying the Dharma and the sangha, weakening the Dharma, is also the ultimate crime. This problem is not only said to Jizō, but all Mahayana sutras talk about. Jizō Bodhisattva knows the evil life years ago, the Dharma end, The monk could not keep his ideals, while lay people in the home refused to cultivate merit to practice wisdom, and had behaviors that were not in accordance with the laws of the Three Jewels. This, no need for pagan destruction, no need for pagan destruction, has made me down myself. Therefore Jizō Bodhisattva shows the ordination, in the dharma conference of Shakyamuni Buddha, showing this dharma, to let sentient beings know what is easiest to put themselves in hell? Helping disciples to leave home and home, they must pay special attention to this point, thereby generating more love and protection for the Three Jewels. This not only did not fall into hell itself, but also revived Buddhism, the impure ones gradually become purified, more and more splendid. This, no need for pagan destruction, no need for pagan destruction, has made me down myself. Therefore Jizō Bodhisattva shows the ordination, in the dharma conference of Shakyamuni Buddha, showing this dharma, to let sentient beings know what is easiest to put themselves in hell? Helping disciples to leave home and home, they must pay special attention to this point, thereby generating more love and protection for the Three Jewels. This not only did not fall into hell itself, but also revived Buddhism, the impure ones gradually become purified, more and more splendid. This thing, no need for pagan destruction, no need for pagan destruction, has made me down myself. Therefore Jizō Bodhisattva shows the ordination, in the dharma conference of Shakyamuni Buddha, showing this dharma, to let sentient beings know what is most easy to put themselves in hell? Helping disciples to ordain and at home, they must pay special attention to this point, thereby generating more love and protection for the Three Jewels. This not only did not fall into hell itself, but also revived Buddhism, the impure ones gradually become purified, more and more splendid. Tell sentient beings what is the easiest thing to put you in hell? Helping disciples to leave home and home, they must pay special attention to this point, thereby generating more love and protection for the Three Jewels. This not only did not fall into hell itself, but also revived Buddhism, the impure ones gradually become purified, more and more splendid. Tell sentient beings what is the easiest thing to put you in hell? Helping disciples to ordain and at home, they must pay special attention to this point, thereby generating more love and protection for the Three Jewels. This not only did not fall into hell itself, but also revived Buddhism, the impure ones gradually become purified, more and more splendid.
D. The noble monk (no precious) should be close:
Sangha renunciation, Germany Tathagata classified into several categories: The most wonderful one is the practice of liberation method of Buddha-da, witness of the holy results; The second is that although he has not attained a holy result, he has the ability to preserve the pure Dharma precepts, to understand the Buddha's teachings correctly, and to attain righteous views8 in the Dharma. There are also two types of non-ideal tanks:
1. Aries Increase (like a goat does not know the sermon):
Buddhist disciple renunciation sex, need to learn the precepts. This not only keeps the precepts, such as the sense of killing, the sense of theft ... but also covers the laws and regulations of the pure monastic order. Must have any qualifications to be able to be a teacher? What is the full capacity to impart the precepts? Real life like? What is the method of ordination? How to be able to cultivate and stay a temple? ... Thus, everything the Buddha has a strict rule, a very careful front fence. The monk, since renunciation, ordained, every day must embrace bowls, alms, cover y, sleep. Jobs in the sangha, such as inviting people to look after work, reconciling disputes ... have certain rules and regulations. The story in the Sangha, in modern terms, is democracy. Such as the "list-ma9" is the "conference". Whether the conference is legal or not, the resolution must be passed by everyone, decide whether it is legal or not, all of this, the monk must know clearly, so study. If anything is not known, it is the "yang rose".
2. Monks are not noble:
News Bhikkhu-stilts break the world. The precepts are heavyweight, here only says breaking the world. These non-noble monks, should they be close to the lay house? This can be divided into two: First can be close, in the Ten Wheel Volume 5, the Tathagata said: "Monks have no noble character, do not become dharma gas (people capable of practicing Buddhism), honor me as a teacher, greatly respect my images and relics. In our sangha and liberation method, we love the holy precepts, with wholehearted devotion, ... the rotation of the holy king cannot even match, let alone other species ”. The monk does not have this noble, not every day breaking the precepts, but due to a little superficiality, the instigation of defilements, and tempting circumstances break the precepts. Committing the precepts is called breaking the precepts, like a cup with a crack. Such a breaking preceptor is incapable of practicing Buddhism. In the future, no matter how I practice, meditate, recite Buddha's name, this life cannot prove holy and liberated. But unlike other ordinary gender-breakers, so can still be close. Because, although the person was a little superficial, inciting defilements, but breaking the world, but still fully believe in the Three Jewels, with great respect, respect for images, relics tower of the Buddha. In front of the statue in an extremely pure and solemn way, respectfully offer offerings. Although he himself broke the precepts, he claimed to praise the monks and nuns, and fully admired the pure holy world. The monk does not have this kind of nobleness. Although not capable of practicing Buddhism himself, this life is not capable of cultivating, but still has the ability to increase merit and wisdom. For Buddhism, it is still possible to help sentient beings cultivate merit, generate respect and be in the Dharma to benefit from. Due to the pure belief in the Three Noble Truths and Precepts, no matter how great merit the pagan has, it is impossible to match the holy king of the world. Rotating the holy king is a benevolent king of the world, using the method of "ten good ten virtues" (10 path of gentle morality) to educate the world. If the world has a holy monarch, people will be at peace, but cannot guide them out of samsara. But monks break the precepts, and have the ability to help sentient beings get their right views out of the world. So, in terms of practice, this person is not capable of practicing Buddhism; also stand in terms of merit protecting the Three Jewels, being able to help others to gain benefits in Buddhism. Monks who do not have this noble, can be close, in the end of life it is not easy at all to meet such monks. If the world has the holy king's rotation, the people will be at peace, but cannot guide them out of samsara. But monks break the precepts, and have the ability to help sentient beings get their righteous views out of the world. So, in terms of practice, this person is not capable of practicing Buddhism; also stand in terms of merit protecting the Three Jewels, being able to help others gain benefits in Buddhism. Monks who do not have this noble, can be close, in the end of life it is not easy to meet such monks. If the world has a holy monarch, people will be at peace, but cannot guide them out of samsara. But monks break the precepts, and have the ability to help sentient beings get their righteous views out of the world. So, in terms of practice, this person is not capable of practicing Buddhism; also stand in terms of merit protecting the Three Jewels, being able to help others to gain benefits in Buddhism. Monks who do not have this noble, can be close, in the end of life it is not easy at all to meet such monks. also stand in terms of merit protecting the Three Jewels, being able to help others gain benefits in Buddhism. Monks who do not have this noble, can be close, in the end of life it is not easy at all to meet such monks. also stand in terms of merit protecting the Three Jewels, being able to help others gain benefits in Buddhism. Monks who do not have this noble, can be close, in the end of life it is not easy at all to meet such monks.
Among the monks who are not noble, there are also those who cannot be close. The Ten Wheel Book 5 reads: "Monks have no noble qualities, destroy precepts, cannot become the holy spirit of sage of the three yanas11, grasp wrong views, destroy other blasphemy, destroy other blasphemy, should not be close, close will pervert ”. This monk does not have this preciousness, not only has broken the precepts, but this life is not capable of witnessing sainthood and liberation. Also presented many arguments, by themselves wrong views, defaming the righteous people; himself refused to practice the liberation method of the Buddha-da, defamed the practitioner of the Buddha-da's liberation method. Generating wrong views, rejecting cause and effect, good and evil, is a worm, the enemy lurks in the sangha. There are also some, wrong understanding, misleading explanations, practitioners of Hinayana defaming the Mahayana, not the Buddha speaking; Mahayana practitioners contemptuous of Hinayana, saying it is not worth it. As in the continent (generosity, precepts, patience, diligence, meditation and wisdom), practicing just one degree, defaming the rest. Monks who do not have such noble character, not only do not become dharma, destroy the Dharma, so they should not get close. Close to them, will train according to them, arising wrong views, destroying, defaming this excess, another level, definitely hard to avoid burning in hell!
E. The Mahayana creator should not be close:
There are a number of Mahayana scholars, often openly praising his Mahayana: Saying he belongs to the Mahayana sect; only the Mahayana sutras can hear, the Mahayana dharma can learn, and the Thanh Van, the Pratyekabuddha (Poetry) are all Hinayana, not worth studying. This person accepted the Mahayana defame the Hinayana. The way of thinking of ordinary people, Mahayana is better than Hinayana, then studying Mahayana do not study Hinayana, specializing in promoting Mahayana not promoting Hinayana, what is wrong with that? This mistake can be said very big! The Ten Wheel book 6 records: "Proposed like this, I am Mahayana, is the Mahayana sect, only like to listen, practice, to maintain the Mahayana, do not like the Dharma of the Qing text, Poisoning. Again recorded: “The speaker and the listener, both brought serious sin, buried on the edge of destruction, fell into insanity, accepted the inhuman argument. The mistake of these people is that they have not yet learned the Dharma of Thanh Van, Dependent Origination, but pray to listen and practice the Mahayana Dharma even before ". Type of prejudice12 accept the Mahayana defame this Hinayana, Germany The Ton said, this class commits very serious crimes; This class listener said, also committed a serious crime. Mainly there are three errors: The arising of the view cessation, insane initiation, accept inhuman argument. The great master Thai Huu approved and regained all the Buddhadharma, established the Five Yayas of the 13 Dharma14, the Three Way of the Dharma, the new Mahayana was illegal15. Without the five elements, In the third form of the Dharma, the unjust Mahayana dharma has no basis. Therefore, Tibetan Buddhism, the Great Master Hakka of the Temple of Heaven, took the plus of the lower monks, plus the lower sergeants, the sergeants, and regained all the Buddhadharma, so that the new Buddha-dharma developed brilliantly. to Qinghai, Mongolia, to the Northeastern lands ... This is very similar to the practice of Jizō Bodhisattva; If you do not study Hinayana but learn Mahayana, practice by yourself, teach people to follow, you and Buddhism are both entering a crossroads! For example, Mahayana sutras say the word "No16", if it is said that all are not; Mahayana Buddhist Zen Buddhism says "not good, not evil", if you think that neither good nor evil, then it is all wrong. In the Hinayana Dharma, is there good and evil, cause and effect, samsara, and suffering? Where is the problem? How to study, what results, Is it possible to attain ultimate purity forever? I have to realize such a practical way, through these basic problems, to be able to partially comprehend the meaning of "No" of the Mahayana. Otherwise, it will fall into the three aforementioned errors.
1. Generate the view cessation, ie fall into "No":
Heard that all are "No", say that there is no cause and effect, and then see cause and effect, karmic retribution, good and evil retribution, samsara, samsara is not there. If the start of the view ceases - no view, whether speaking mind, speaking count, speaking enlightenment, are not true Mahayana dharma.
2. Frantic initiation:
Heard that everyone has a Buddha nature, has the ability to become a Buddha, and then delusions of being a Buddha. Do not be crazy crazy like that! People who study the Mahayana dharma are very easy to fall into this evil path. This is the mistake of leaving studying the Qing texts and Pratyekabuddhas, but only accepting Mahayana.
3. Inhuman argument:
In the Mahayana sutras, or say conditions cannot be, conditions and conditions have no self-nature, but absolutely don't say there are no conditions. However, there are some scholars who do not know this idea that they fall into the inhuman wrong views. Cause and effect is the essence of the Buddha's teaching, it is impossible to fail to believe and distinguish clearly. Currently in some places, on the surface, it looks like the Buddha Dharma is extremely flourishing, but very few discusses the cause and effect of three generations. These metamorphic people, who have gone very far from the basis of the Buddha's teachings, are all mistakes that the Mahayana has pointed out, can also say that this person has not attained the Mahayana Dharma. In a nutshell, all of these are "side effects" of not learning the Chinese language, Pratyekabuddha, but learning immediately in the miraculous Mahayana Dharma. Mahayana is like food with so many nutrients, Someone whose body is not sick, healthy, eating it will help his body be stronger, his spirit will be much more refreshing. But if the disease has not been cured but taken supplements, side effects will definitely arise. Thanh Van, Dependent Origination, less want to know enough, take personal benefits lightly, little karma, obey the pure precepts, are the basic spirit of Hinayana. The Mahayana pays attention to the benefit of people. But, if you leave the spirit of lack of sensuality (little wanting to know enough) and practice the Mahayana, you will get into a turn, so with the worldly lust there is no difference? Without the supramundane spirit of the Shravaka, then there could be no incarnation of the Mahayana, Mahayana would become an ordinary worldly transformation. Therefore, If you leave Hinayana, without the merits of Qing Wen, think you are a Mahayana scholar, you do not need to learn the Hinayana Dharma, then if you have not recovered from the illness and take the tonic, the consequences will not be good. Kinh Dieu Phap Lien Hoa recorded: Mahayana as 500 do-week17, Primary way 300 do-week. 300 do-weeks is in 500 do-weeks, not out of 500 do-weeks with 300 do-weeks. So, if you don't study the other two yanas (Prajna and Pratyekabuddha) but only study the Mahayana Dharma, it will become a big mistake.
Thus, without learning the Hinayana Dharma, it means that you cannot study the Mahayana Dharma. The Ten Wheel Book 6 clearly states: "Without learning the Hinayana Dharma, how can we learn the Mahayana Dharma?" "Leaving your life to protect the precepts, not causing suffering to sentient beings, diligently praying for the Dharma No, it is the Mahayana". Also in this sutra, book 7 records: "Why say Nhat redundant? Because of removing Thanh Van, Poisoning, say this for pure people ”. This clearly rebuked the Mahayana holder who slandered Hinayana, as if he could not run but wanted to jump. Dharma Mahayana, on the one hand, focuses on observing the precepts, observing the precepts without sparing the life, preserving and maintaining the holy world, full of compassion for all sentient beings, not killing, making sentient beings suffer. depends on compassion that establishes; has the ability to truly practice precepts, that is, has the ability to generate compassion); On the one hand, diligent dedication to France. Compassion, precepts, diligence, pray for all emptiness, are the characteristics of the Mahayana Dharma. Dharma Emptiness of all is not born and ceased (that is, the general does not count). Nagarjuna's bodhisattva said: "Having no faith in the world, even if he wants to attain the No way, it is all evil". Seeing, the exact view of Void18, must be based on the foundation of deep belief in cause and effect, and maintain the pure precepts ... to be achieved. But believe in cause and effect, maintain the precepts pure, diligence ... are the common merits of Thanh Van, Dependent Origination. So, to learn the Mahayana Dharma, must not be defamed, criticized Hinayana, must learn all the basic merit of Hinayana. Relying on the merits of Hinayana, when studying Mahayana, praying for the emptiness, we can be sure. Someone said that in the sutras the exact view of the vacuum 18, must be based on the foundation of deep belief in cause and effect, pure precepts ... can be achieved. But believe in cause and effect, maintain the precepts pure, diligent ... are the common merits of Thanh Van, Duyen Sensory. So, to learn the Mahayana Dharma, must not be defamed, criticized Hinayana, must learn all the basic merit of Hinayana. Relying on the merits of Hinayana, when studying Mahayana, praying for the emptiness, one can be sure. Someone said that in the sutras the exact view of the vacuum 18, must be based on the foundation of deep belief in cause and effect, pure precepts ... can be achieved. But believe in cause and effect, maintain the precepts pure, diligence ... are the common merits of Thanh Van, Dependent Origination. So, to learn the Mahayana Dharma, must not be defamed, criticized Hinayana, must learn all the basic merit of Hinayana. Relying on the merits of Hinayana, when studying Mahayana, praying for the emptiness, we can be sure. Someone said that in the sutras No, you can be sure. Someone said that in the sutras No, you can be sure. Someone said that in the sutras Saddharmapundarika said Nhat thua19 (Buddhayana), all beings become Buddhas; Someone who used to practice according to the Hinayana Dharma, now he has moved to the Mahayana, see how quick and good he is to learn Mahayana, must he study Hinay again? In Hong Kong there is a magician who has a very own understanding of the Lotus Sutra. He said that, "Declaring the true power of manifestation 20", that is, expelling the rule of law21 to manifest the truth22, without learning the law of the Hinayana, only revealing the truthfulness of the One. This makes people misunderstand, they always think to study Mahayana Mahayana, not to study Hinayana. But why does the Tathagata say that only the First Vehicle is the end, can become a Buddha? Why did he not say the three yanas in the end but that he said the novice? Should know, he said the One Mahayana, not without purpose, but to help pure beings, body and mind, to those who are fully qualified to receive Mahayana dharma he said so. Not just opening the Buddha said that there is only one Buddha. In the Lotus Sutra record, the Buddha's concentration (Tam-muoi), immediately praised the immeasurable wisdom, can not think of the table of the Buddhas. Mr. Xa-benefit-wooed him compassionately to lecture, but he refused up to three times, but Mr. Xa-benefit-woo still persevered, maturingly sometimes up to three times, he promised to declare. At that time, 500 monks and nuns 23 left, saying "good job!" At this time, the masses in the conference are all Mahayana identity, so it is only said that the Buddha Mahayana. The Tathagata has never taught people to learn Mahayana, depending on the ability to say his liberation method, slowly introduce, until this stage, the opportunity is ripe, he just declared the most Mahayana Dharma. . Although Hinayana is not the end, but adaptive, with the identities of living beings disagreeing like this, it is necessary to say such dhammas. The Buddha compassionately manifested in a bad life years ago, establishing a pure sangha, requiring Hinayana Dharma, helping monks to be careful, a frugal life, not being bothered by economy, family, and grandmother. Relatives ... Building up a pure sangha like a dharma in the human world, that is, in the dark world, appearing a ray of hope. In the sutras Magical Lotus FlowerAt first, the Buddha, at first he saw this dhamma could not even speak, but thinking back, the Buddhas in three generations (before, now and after), all spoke this dhamma in the evil life years ago, it depends on according to the basis of sentient beings that speak the method of liberation, so the new Buddha Mahayana is divided into three. If at first I say the First Mahayana, sentient beings are still not purified, unable to receive, not only do not gain merit, but cause them to create destructive karma. So it is necessary to say the Hinayana Dharma first, when sentient beings have mastered and practiced well the basic methods such as strict behavior, meager life, then will be able to practice and receive the righteousness. magic of the Mahayana. The Hinayana Dharma mainly took them to leave the family home, this is the core group to build a Dharma house in the bad world years ago. If a pure sangha is not formed, the righteous dharma will surely fall into oblivion. Therefore, Jizō Bodhisattva uses the body of Thanh Van manifest in this bad life, saving sentient beings, helping them not to fall into hell. Talking so much, but the masses only need to pay attention to two points. One, for the teacher Bhikkhu-stilts breaking the precepts, how to handle and deal with? Second, it is necessary to uphold the pure sangha of liarians living a mindful life in order to make the Three jewels in the world a solemn purity, the righteous lamp not to be overshadowed or extinguished. how to deal with and deal with? Second, it is necessary to uphold the pure sangha of liarians living a mindful life in order to make the Three jewels in the world a solemn purity, the righteous lamp not to be overshadowed or extinguished. how to deal with and deal with? Second, it is necessary to uphold the pure sangha of liarians living a mindful life in order to make the Three jewels in the world a solemn purity, the righteous lamp not to be overshadowed or extinguished.
G. Carefully accept titles, money, do not create bad karma:
Normally, lay Buddhists have a great influence on Buddhism, requiring them to be an important figure in society, especially those who grow up, take on important national affairs. They have authority, reputation, if they have pure faith in the Dharma, helping Buddhism propagate the liberation method of Buddha-da, will naturally affect the community well. But if they uphold the Dharma without knowing how, or have no faith in the Dharma, generate evil views, they will cause significant obstacles to the Dharma. As previously said, persecuting the renunciant, invading the property of pure monks and breaking the precepts, or abusing the property of the Three Jewels ... number of people with authority. People who are miserable, unable to sustain, are also unable to destroy. The wealthy are powerful, Maintaining the Three Jewels, can still arise problems of blessing, let alone those who intentionally destroy the Dharma. Here we mean to be very careful when receiving power and resources, to avoid creating bad karma. This kind of person, sutra The Seventh Centuries are divided into 4 categories:
1. Vows not to make great, not to accept power, to avoid making a crime:
There are some who take the vow not to be a king, a mandarin, a person of authority ..., afraid of frantic delusions, doing things that destroy the Trinity. These things, if you do not commit it, you will be committed to hell. So it is better to accept no power, money, although not able to support the Dharma, to contain merit broadly, but not to create serious sin leading to perversion.
2. If a sentient being has obtained the Dharma ring ... then we will allow it to grow and receive rich and precious flowers:
This being has attained the dharma-ring infertility, that is, has directly realized the truth. Having the enlightenment of wisdom, being a king, a king, a powerful person, definitely never do anything to destroy the Three Jewels. This person can afford to receive a noble, rich and precious position. The ordinary suffering of sentient beings, without the money and power, cannot do great things, can only do small merits for the three precious Persons. Like the Hinayana people, afraid of committing felonies, it is better to accept difficulties and do not need precious rights. The Mahayana is not like that, considering the benefits of the Three Noble Truths, sentient beings first. Truly realizing the dharma, no matter how powerful, high rank, and great benefits, will definitely do more benefits for sentient beings, and keep the three throne more effective.
3. Sentient beings, who have not attained the dharma ring, have the ability to practice the Ten good dharma s, and encourage sentient beings to practice, we also allow:
Again said: "Ten good legal ... called Bo-slaps Ma-ha-slaps. All bad things are eliminated, all good dhammas can be attained, quickly reaching the vast sea of Nirvana ”. Some sentient beings, though not yet enlightened, have the capacity to practice the Ten good dharma s, and teach everyone to practice together; So, even as king, chief, prime minister, powerful person ... also determined not to commit a serious crime to destroying the Three Jewels. Ten good things:
Body: There are three good karma: No killing (protecting your life, being aware of the sufferings caused by murder), no stealing (respecting private property, aware of suffering caused by deception, social injustice and theft), not adultery (protect good behavior, be aware of family happiness on the basis of faithfulness, harmony, vow to keep yourself pure, protect your own life conduct and wholeheartedly protect other people's virtues).
Oral: In terms of language, there are four good karma: Do not lie (practicing right language is listening, being aware of the suffering caused by the lack of righteous words, please take the right words, learn to listen listen to give joy to others and help people to reduce suffering), do not speak with a double tongue to distract others, do not curse people, and do not speak neatly, advise others to do sexual acts, steal ...
The idea (thought): There are three good karma: No greed, no greed, no anger, no ignorance, ignorance, good and evil.
Ten such good things, self-practice, teach the practitioner, the moral qualities of this person are highly appreciated, doing as the dharma, naturally will no longer cause destructive dhammas. Having not yet been enlightened, having received rich and precious things and still have the ability to practice the Ten good things, will no longer create heavy karma. The Mahayana sutras all say, Bodhisattva generates Bodhi mind, initially practicing 10 good things, starting from 10 good karma. Business People Kingdom Protection Bat-elegant, call these 10 good things of the Bodhisattva. Practicing moral things on his own, using ethics to teach everyone, taking Bodhi mind ten good things to teach the world, this person, though not yet enlightened, is also capable of walking on the Mahayana itself. Ten good Bodhisattvas benefit this person, accomplishing ten good deeds, eliminating all evil, even if he holds power, riches and precious things, this person will certainly not commit a serious crime of destroying the Trinity. treasure. Not yet the dharma rings, not practicing the 10 good things ..., there are also conditions and other means to save ... Just have faith, respect the Three Jewels.
"Not destroying the law, not causing trouble for the monks, not appropriating the assets of the renunciants; in the Three residences corresponding to the Dharma, after listening to the practice mind, ... from the helpless hell fall, and other bad paths ". Not being infertile, nor practicing 10 good things, this person is a king, a great lord, has authority, often extremely dangerous. But there are other conditions, making great but not causing serious sin, possibly means of help, so as not to fall to hell to suffer. If this person is powerful, rich, has pure faith and respect the Three Jewels. As previously said, monks break the world, although he has broken the precepts, but full of faith in Buddhism, there is still merit. This layperson, though not enlightened, does not practice the 10 good things, it is difficult to avoid evil deeds, but thanks to the trinity reverence, full of faith, will definitely not create serious crimes, such as destroying the Dharma, harming the monks, destroying the Three Jewels, invading their possessions to increase ... The objects of the Three Jewels belong to the Three Jewels. , the monk can't even take it arbitrarily, how dare lay people take it as his own? Just have full faith in the Three Jewels, respectfully respect the Three yanas Dharma, although not yet enlightened or practicing the 10 good things, but still has the power of good merit, to control thoughts and forces. evil, do not commit serious crime, stay away from hell and evil ways. How dare a layperson take his own? Just have full faith in the Three Jewels, respectfully respect the Three yanas Dharma, although not yet enlightened or practicing the 10 good things, but still has the power of good merit, to control thoughts and forces evil, do not commit serious crime, stay away from hell and evil ways. How dare a layperson take it as his own? Just have full faith in the Three Noble Truths, respectfully respect the Three Buddhas of the Dharma, although not yet enlightened or practicing the 10 good things, but still has the power of good merit, to control thoughts and forces. evil, do not commit serious crime, stay away from hell and evil ways.
This, only says to lay Buddhists of the ordinary, powerful, rich and wealthy. Already precious and capable of realizing infertility, of course too ideal! If not capable, should also practice the 10 good things; if not any more, it is also necessary to have pure faith in the Three Jewels. That is how to avoid the crime of the Five Indestructible, ten evil rotations ... said in the previous section. This life is prosperous from a family, a good position in the society, so doing many good deeds for the Dharma, increasing the merit to protect the three prisms.
H. The Jizō Bodhisattva makes a generous vow all over:
From countless eons to now, Jizō Bodhisattva has aspired to save sentient beings, not letting them fall to hell. He made a big vow to his father Shakyamuni Buddha: "At the time of this evil and evil world, in the past year there was no Buddha, sentient beings in which were burned fiercely by the fire of afflictions, bad habits, foolishness. , hard to turn ..., small benign roots, no faith ...; Such people, because of a little scum, helping those who break the world to do bad things, cultivate the evil of their friends, will definitely fall into a Zero-Hell hell. I vow to go there, use the dharma king of the Buddha of the Buddha, taking the wonderful and wonderful manifestation to benefit all sentient beings, the means of teaching, to be blessed ... they will not fall into the Indestructible Hell "(the Ten Wheel of Truth volume 4). When the Blessed One was still in the world, his majesty was great, and the base of living beings was agile. After his manifestation of extinction, sentient beings were burned fiercely by the fire of afflictions, did many bad deeds, ignorant and evil, regardless of right and bad, evil and violent, so the sutras said: in a bad and evil life years ago, hard-headed and difficult ”. These sentient beings are often due to a little residue of fame and profit, and cooperate with bad monks. Dharma in the world, is a good ashram, virtuous monks will surely have someone to support them. The disciplines recite Buddha's name, take meditation, teach sutras, have a teacher who is talented and virtuous, and there are also legal protectors. Some scenic spots, ancient temples or newly built, regardless of whether the monks are abiding or not, the assets and objects in the temple are many, also need someone to support. In the past, temples in Mainland (China) wanted to maintain, The activities were good, whenever the power drew the local relatives, they immediately came to welcome gifts and ask them to help them. Lay lay people, more or less also have a bit of faith in the Three Jewels, but there are a number of monks who do not progress, invite gifts to people in power, ask them to help, gradually becoming a habit. It is also difficult to avoid a number of local relatives, not good or bad in black and white, just give gifts and come to help with envelopes. This not only creates bad habits, but also makes virtuous monks who have no standing land. This, not only does not support Buddhism, on the contrary, increases many difficulties for increasing them. The person who loves and maintains the true Buddha-dharma, always wants the three pure treasures, to see gifts and painful envelopes, so Master Thai Huu greatly appreciated and praised those with heart. This protector! Jizō Bodhisattva in the legal assembly of Shakyamuni Buddha, showing his ordination, established a pure sangha at the center of Buddhism. According to this basic spirit, he vowed, using skillful means of manipulation, to bring sentient beings out of their wicked life. This does not necessarily have to show miracles, to bring sentient beings out of hell, but rather to act out the true principles, to help them understand; In particular, educating those who have authority and possessions, instead of creating a sin to suffer in hell forever, let's believe in worshiping the Dharma, not to create a crime of destroying the Three Jewels. The Buddha said this method, take the sutras bring sentient beings out of bad and evil life. This does not necessarily have to show miracles, to bring sentient beings out of hell, but rather to act out the true principles, to help them understand; In particular, educating those who have authority and property, instead of creating a sin to suffer in hell forever, please believe in worshiping the Dharma, not to create a crime of destroying the Three Jewels. The Buddha said this method, take the sutras bring sentient beings out of bad and evil life. This does not necessarily have to show miracles, to bring sentient beings out of hell, but rather to act out the true principles, to help them understand; In particular, educating those who have authority and possessions, instead of creating a sin to suffer in hell forever, let's believe in worshiping the Dharma, not to create a crime of destroying the Three Jewels. The Buddha said this method, take the sutras Jizō Ten Wheel as the root, helping sentient beings in the evil life years ago, do not fall into hell.
BECAUSE. RESIST THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE DISCOURED
The method of Jizō Bodhisattva, with special emphasis on how it is possible to prevent sentient beings from falling into a bad path. Not creating felony, not falling into hell, of course too good. But having created negative karma to fall to hell, when his life will fall into hell, how can he save that important moment? If you've fallen to hell, how to save again? When a person with serious illness is about to die, or die, at that time, the evil karma created, good karma cannot be done in time, will the salvation be like? Beijing Address Tibetan Bodhisattva Bon Prayer , paying special attention to this method.
Jizō Bodhisattva aspires, needs to save sentient beings suffering from evil. Beings in the evil path, in which hell beings suffer the most. For those suffering sentient beings, the Bodhisattva is especially compassionate and compassionate, so he pays special attention to salvation in hell. Jizō Bodhisattva in the dharma assembly of Shakyamuni Buddha, received the Buddha's blessing. At the end of the Dharma end after the Tathagata manifests Nirvana, sentient beings are slow to flood, deeply afflicted, a little enlightened practitioner, many fall back. In countless lives Jizō Bodhisattva has made great aspirations, so he stands out to take on this responsibility, vows to save sentient beings in the dirty world, this is very difficult and rare! Here there is a problem, the Bodhisattva always hopes all sentient beings know the direction of goodness, not to fall. Sentient beings also hope for their parents, His six relatives are all good, not falling into evil. What karma to get results, of course doing good with good results, doing evil will meet evil retribution, do yourself. But can we sit and watch that person about to fall to hell when they are familiar, related by blood to us? To become sages, saints, and ancestors are suffering in hell, are our minds at peace? Dharma does not selfishly give us benefits, we do not have to forget the grace of our parents, our six relatives, so for those who have not fallen to hell, we must use the means of salvation; the fallen person must use the means of salvation. Like a criminal, locked in a prison, we have to find a way to save him, we should not say that he will suffer the punishment of the law for a lifetime. Especially those with relations with us, The more urgent it is to think about how to save, this is humanity, the morality that must be in everyone, and must be done by practical works. The Chinese people to their ancestors always mean filial piety "to be reckoned with good care". "Chung" refers to the death of a parent, "far" refers to an ancestor. That means that the parents have passed away, they need to be very respectful, the worship must be full of adultery). On the Lunar New Year holidays, there are worshiping ceremonies, showing the hearts of children and grandchildren not forgetting their ancestors' blessings. The Chinese people have a tradition of sympathizing with people, until the dead, whenever they eat, wear clothes, they think of their parents, so they always offer rice and burn clothes for their grandparents. Then gradually use paper to burn instead of clothes, this is a filial act of honor of grandparents; Although using good intentions, but the way of doing is not ideal. The religions of the West, which are not thinking about it, think that death is finished, for people who do evil, there is no way to save. Buddhism is not like Confucianism, it does not stop at filial piety of ancestors, "common sense of the long run", but it is necessary to work hard to save the corrupted dead, and how the unborn must not be educated. perverted. Religion must conform to the human requirement, so in the development of theology in the West, Christianity also has the thought of "purgatory", the doctrine of doing "rituals" for the dead, to eliminate crime of death. This capital develops in humanity; but in terms of the way of salvation, the new Buddha-dharma is capable of fulfilling it. And the person who is not dead must educate how not to fall. Religion must conform to the human requirement, so in the development of theology in the West, Christianity also has the thought of "purgatory", the doctrine of making "sacrificial" for the dead, to eliminate crime of death. This capital develops in humanity; but in terms of the way to save, the new Buddha-dharma is capable of fulfilling it. And the person who is not dead must educate how not to fall. Religion must conform to the human requirement, so in the development of theology in the West, Christianity also has the thought of "purgatory", the doctrine of making "sacrificial" for the dead, to eliminate crime of death. This capital develops in humanity; but in terms of the way to save, the new Buddha-dharma is capable of fulfilling it.
1. The ancient vows of Bo - slaps
"Save forever": When the Bodhisattva Jizō generated Bodhi mind, there was a vow: "I will not count the number of eons until the future, show many means, freeing sentient beings of suffering in six ways, when sentient beings are all liberated, you will become a Buddha ". ( Bon Prayer upper scripture). To generate bodhicitta, learn the Bodhisattva, must also depend on the conditions to develop a spiritual mind. Jizō Bodhisattva sees sentient beings suffering in six paths, sees parents experience suffering, makes great vows to end all sentient beings, forever away from suffering. This prayer, not by day, by month, by year, this life or next life, but forever in the future. Mainly saving sentient beings in the three evil ways, not allowing them to suffer from suffering. But the identities of sentient beings are not the same, their intellectual levels are not the same, their mindsets are not the same; If we only use one method to save, definitely not succeed, we need to present many means, bring all sentient beings into Buddhas, then we will become Buddhas. So say: "Not yet all sentient beings, swear not to become Buddha". Sentient beings are endless, hell is hard at all, it is very difficult to attain Buddhahood, He became a great compassionate Bodhisattva who did not become a Buddha. In the process of generating the mind to practice, the Bodhisattva pays special attention to great compassion, not for the sake of his own sake, urgently becoming a Buddha. From countless eons up to now, Jizō Bodhisattva has made such great aspirations. He made a great vow to expose many means, rather than becoming a Buddha, just focusing on sending sentient beings, helping them to free them all. How great the great devotion, the spirituality of Jizō Bodhisattva, is worthy of our reverence! He made a great vow to expose many means, rather than becoming a Buddha, just focusing on sending sentient beings, helping them to free them all. How great the great devotion, the spirituality of Jizō Bodhisattva, is worthy of our reverence! He made a great vow to expose many means, rather than becoming a Buddha, just focusing on sending sentient beings, helping them to free them all. How great the great compassion, the spirituality of Jizō Bodhisattva, is worthy of our reverence!
Patriarch Shakyamuni once praised his merit: “Hear the name of Jizō Bodhisattva, either praise, or contemplate, or make names, or make offerings, until the image of He, that person was born 100 times to the 33rd heaven, forever not falling into evil ". ( Duty Vow of upper atmosphere). "Overcoming 30 lives of sins, being born into a heavenly realm, without a bad path, not living a female body, if long enough, it will be honored, dignified, and protected by a demon. ( Bon Prayer lower books). Because Jizō Bodhisattva has unthinkable merit, so praise, worshiping him will have such great merit. The Blessed One said: "Through hundreds of lives proclaiming the merits of the Bodhisattva, the Venerable Guru and the other great Bodhisattvas, it is not equal to reverently confess the Jizō Bodhisattva recitation during the meal period. Because he paid special attention to his prayer, just by listening to his holy sign, we already know what merit is like. Listening to the Jizō Bodhisattva sign, knowing the stories of his past, should use every possible method to praise him. Previously, in India there were shelves to praise the merits of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. At present, the method of praising a lot, we can use literature, poetry, music ... When we see the image of the Bodhisattva, we respectfully admire the worship; or claiming the holy sign of Jizō; or make offerings of flowers; or engrave the image of Bodhisattva - can engrave wooden Bodhisattva statue, carved stone, copper, iron, gold ..., or embank, molded with earth, cement ...; no matter what material, just a statue of Bodhisattva, reverent worship, great merit, the hundred-year-old blessing of the human world. The sutras talk a lot about the merit of offering, proclaiming, drawing up, the Jizō Bodhisattva worship: One, has the ability to kill 30 mortal lives; two, after death, was born into heaven; three, not living a woman's body: A woman, actually nothing bad, just her physiology unlike male; Although men and women are said to be equal, but physically, they are still far behind men. If reciting the name of Jizō's Bodhisattva, she may no longer bear the female body. If anyone takes the vow to regain the female body, in the next life, the female body will definitely be respected, gentle and honest. to be a good wife and mother. Like Lady Maan, manifested as the mother of Prince Siddhartha (Shakyamuni Buddha later); Four, this life is protected by the demon god. The evil demons in the world are many, there are many disturbances, but for people with virtue, they will support good protection and peace.
2. At death was rescued
The above said the normal merit of the worshiping Jizō Bodhisattva. Now it will come to salvation at the time of death. After death, it is not certain that everyone falls down, or is born again as a human. If a person with great merit will be born into the heavenly realm, if the person dedicatedly reciting the Buddha's name, he will be born in the Western bliss world. These people, do not need salvation, because there is redundancy. But in the decades of existence, there were many wrongdoings; especially in the age of the end of the Dharma, strong struggle, heavy anger, strong greed, each person is hard to avoid sin, each has the ability to perish - hell, animals, hungry ghosts. What must be used to save them? If still alive, relatively easy, but already dead, very difficult. Today's Buddhist students, often placing a heavy emphasis on salvation after death, is in fact the best when it comes to making money. The method of salvation, to have two types: One, giving to bless; two, return to take refuge in the Three throne practice merit, chant the scriptures, confess recite the holy sign of the Buddhas. Sutras often say, when the sick person stands on the verge of the death of the first birth, suffering and suffering, the ability to perish is very high, it is better to take that person's objects, give alms to others, especially giving alms. that person is the most favorite. Like someone who likes to store ancient books, stamps…; The preferences of each person are not the same as anyone else, give the objects that they love, so that can destroy the attachments of sentient beings. Having the ability to give all his favorite things, is there something he cannot give? Giving is the favorite thing, the merit is also the greatest. Sentient beings use money to create karma a lot. will definitely achieve no small merit karmic retribution. On the one hand, it helps him to get rid of his mind, reduce his attachments, and on the other hand increase his merit. Without attachment, attachment to existing possessions, increasing human god's blessings, there will be no fall, this is Buddhism's basic method of saving the dying sick. In addition, there is a way, to cultivate merit with the Three Jewels, you can make offerings to the Three Jewels, chant chanting, repentance, confess the holy signs of the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and rely on special blessings of Three jewels, helping people who are about to die, get great benefits. Kinh This is Buddhism's basic method of saving the dying patient. In addition, there is a way, to cultivate merit with the Three jewels, can make offerings to the Three Jewels, chant chanting, repentance, confess the holy signs of the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and rely on special blessings Three jewels, helping people who are about to die, get great benefits. Kinh This is Buddhism's basic method of saving the dying patient.

Kinh Prayer The upper book reads: “When the sick person is about to die, parents and relatives should be blessed to help the dying person. You can hang the chant and light the oil lamp, or take turns reciting the scriptures, or make offerings to Buddha statues and statues of Bodhisattvas, sage gods, to recite the holy signs of Buddha, Bodhisattva and Buddha-chi , his sins are eliminated ”. The person who is about to die, the realm that appears before his eyes is very frightening, the pity is heavy, it is easy to fall. Parents, siblings, relatives ... of the dying person should cultivate merit and merit, light a lamp to worship the Buddha, chant sutras or recite holy signs of the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas; These actions all have the ability to help the dying person to leave the dangerous path, straight to the path of peace and liberation. The weaker the more, like "at the end of the life, we only need to hear a sign of the Jizō Bodhisattva passing through the ear, that sentient being is not suffering forever in the three evil ways ". (Bon Prayer of upper atmosphere). The dying person, if it is possible to hear the sign of Jizō Bodhisattva, just listen to a sign through the ear, knowing that there is a Bodhisattva present in me, this person will not suffer forever. three evil lines; If we have the ability to recite the Buddha's name, to give birth to bless the person who is about to die, it will help him stay away from the path of corruption.
During a lifetime, many karma created, what will pay for when we get into forestry? There are three types of karma:
a. Going under heavy weight:
For example, creating the five crimes of No-cockroaches, this is the greatest evil karma, just died immediately to hell; on the contrary, the person who practices the supreme meditation, deep concentration of concentration, immediately dies off and is reincarnated into heaven. Karma creates a lot, death will follow the strongest karma. "Like collecting debts, those who are strong will win first".
b. According to habit:
Based on daily habits. Karma is not very heavy, but what we do every day is a habit. There are some people who, in their whole life, do not create great evil, nor do great good, so it is necessary to see what karma he does every day, which karma the most, will follow that karma. According to the concept:
When he is about to stop breathing, he thinks of somewhere, and immediately reincarnates into that place. Pham serious karma, of course can not be transferred. Not serious karma, when he is about to die, teach him not to attach, see through, let go of, take things of that person to give alms to create merit. Life is about to leave the mortal realm, as long as he still knows his almsgiving creates blessings, the mind is not greedy, the mind is clear, and immediately lives life according to that benediction. Or at the time of dying, help recite, guide him, help the sick person hear the Buddha's sign, in mind also recite Buddha's name along. Assuming he is standing on the edge of peril, he knows that someone recites the Buddha's name for him, immediately arises a wholesome mind, towards the clear light. Hearing the Buddha's sign, the mind is immediately at peace, immediately capable of saving him from falling into evil ways. So in ordinary times, it is very important to focus on reciting the Buddha's name, and to support reciting at death is also important. Most frightened, when the battle between the god of death and the living god, negative karma comes, appearing before my eyes. As soon as evil thoughts have arisen, the work of practicing for a lifetime immediately turned into a cup. So at the time of death, the family cries, it will make the mind of the dead agitated and miserable, causing them to fall, this is "love for others to harm others". So the most urgent and important thing is to help the dying person to be calm, calm, and happy. Especially the person with stingy, greedy mind will fall into the hungry demons. If his relatives give his alms to bless him, he will let go of his mind and be saved immediately. Not only those who commit extreme crimes that are difficult to change, but those who cultivate very good blessings return to heaven like No-Thought; will be born in the utopian realm, wishing him not born, It's not that simple. Although there are three types, but the most effective way of salvation, is still using good thoughts to convert evil thoughts, to master the method of "following the idea". The Buddhadharma has a means, which can pull sentient beings standing close to the edge of hell, but it is best not to create extreme negative karma.
3. Salvation after general network
The creator of evil karma, when he is about to have a bad life, should dedicate himself to him, relying on the power of the Three Jewels, he is free from suffering. But if dead, what to do? The sutras say: "After death, within 49 days, practice the good deeds, thereby helping sentient beings to separate from the evil ways, to be born into the human realm, to enjoy the victorious joy". ( Bon Prayer lower books). This means, within 49 days after death, should cultivate blessings, give alms, recite Buddha's name, dedicate themselves to the dead, he will depend on that merit, leave the suffering of three evil paths, be born into realms. Heaven or back to being human. Why is it necessary to cultivate good merit for the dead in 49 days? Buddhist Chinese Buddhists in China, every seven days after death, do "week" (failure) once, 49 days called "satisfied", I think this needs a little explanation. Life, warmth, human consciousness leaves the body, called death, this is the effect of the spirit completely stopping; the warmth in the body is gone, life is broken, it is dead. After death, some people receive retribution immediately, there are people who have to go through a period of time. The poor creator of the five No-cockroaches, after death, immediately fall into hell, thinking before and dying, The following thoughts immediately fall to hell, the distance between the previous thoughts and the following thoughts is completely absent, immediately becomes the Infinite prison. Born to heaven is the same way, if you cultivate a great good karma, you both die first, and then you will immediately recite the next birth. If rebirth in the human realm, animals, hungry ghosts ... most of them have to go through a period of time. At that time, although dead, but still neutral body. Who will be born after death? If you return to being a human or an animal ... so you can not immediately receive the notice; The period after death to reincarnation, called the intermediate state body, is a pattern of transition. This intermediate state body, every seven days to die, after death, instant thoughts arise from the second intermediate state life. It is possible that the first day, the second day, had received the karmic retribution in the next life, but had lived seven times and died seven times in 49 days at most will determine life expectancy. If after these 49 days, there is still a period, still not born, ending the transition period, certain to receive karmic retribution as a human, animal, or fall into hell. At the same time, the karma of the next life has not yet made money (the period of transition), it is necessary to practice all good merits. If the dead person has to fall into the animal path, during the period of intermediate state, not receiving the retribution, now cultivate blessings for him, so that his karmic retribution can be transferred. Cultivating merit, making Buddha the (offering, giving, giving birth, reciting Buddha's name, publishing the scriptures, inviting monks to chant ...) in 49 days, without limitation on the first or second retreat. in 49 days you can do it. For example, someone rides from Taipei to Kaohsiung, Kaohsiung is the final destination and destination. If someone were to find him, he could get off at Taichung and Tainan stations. Change of purpose to Kaohsiung. In 49 days of practicing blessings, giving alms, reciting Buddha's name, being a Buddha for the dead, helping him out of the way of evil, also means bringing him down the road. If 49 days have passed, according to karma, there is no way to pull it back, like the car has reached the destination, it is too late.
When the Tathagata was still in life, he always taught almsgiving to create blessings, make offerings to the three jewels, or help the poor, difficult ... and then dedicate himself to the sick, dead. Currently Chinese Buddhism, is still circulating the cultivation of merit for the dead. The homeowner invites the monk to chant Buddhist scriptures, recite Buddha's name, and worship ceremony. There are some homeowners who do not have sincere respect, cultivate and dedicate merit to the dead, but like a transaction, how much money a day or a night, they all have to discuss, the contract is stable, just started to be a Buddha. This is hiring people to chant, but the owner has no devotion at all. Bringing money to the temple, without the thought of giving, of making offerings, of course, also not enjoying the merit of giving alms. Almsgiving is one thing, paying the monks and nuns to chant sutras, reciting the Buddha's name is another. If you use money to invite people to chant sutras, reciting Buddha's name, that is, has lost the meaning of giving. The story of chanting, reciting Buddha's name, the supernatural spirit of today, passed down by the ancestor, to be honest, this is very important to life; But the problem is the businessization of Buddhism, losing the supreme meaning of Buddhism's means of salvation. The family chants Buddhist chants and recites Buddha's name for their dead loved one. The merit does not belong to the dead. The lower books of the prayer book: “A person who lives in common, relatives cultivate a beneficial blessing for spirits. All those great works, of the seven merits the dead receive only one part, the remaining six parts of the merit belong to the living ". Recorded: "The vegetarian offering (...), if eaten first, is not clean, (monks) do not practice diligently, the precepts are not serious, pure, the dead do not have any merit. both ". It turned out that all the merit chanting, reciting Buddha's name, cultivating blessings, making Buddha the dead loved ones, the living enjoying a lot, the dead enjoying little - those who live on 6/7 and the dead only get 1/7 never mind. The loved one dies, we do all the merit, giving, practicing merit, chanting, reciting the Buddha's name ... for them, the person can do six parts, the dead part can partially. So sutras Local Tibetan writing: "The living dead will benefit." If the monk works for the homeowner with a sincere will, he also gets merit. But usually the current monk, chanting, reciting the Buddha's name, being the Buddha for people, doing a superficial way, does not consider this a practice. If at the time of being a Buddha for people, not sincerely respectfully, conscientiously consider this as a means of propagating the beneficial dharma, during the period of practice, not only those who die are not benefiting, nor do they themselves have any merit. How much money can I get in a day?
The person who is not dead, if we chant the sutras, recite the Buddha's name for him, depend on the trinitarian energy, help him initiate a mind of joy, respect, and salvation very easy. Waiting until death, within 49 days, doing merit, super-degree, dedicating to him, requires the owner to be faithful, the person who chants the prayer ceremony must also be very earnestly, able to be have an effect. So Jizō, specifically to mention these two points. Occasionally, monks chanting super-speed sutras to dedicate themselves to the dead, ie offering hands in said sutras. In India, a son means to worship Buddha and to worship. Chinese people invite monks to recite sutras, recite Buddha's name, dedicate themselves to the dead, donate handsomely, bring this merit to the deceased. If the master, the family, kills, eats meat, or increases them make the Buddha impolite, the dead will definitely not benefit. So first of all, the son of the family, the family must be pure, mature, and vegetarian, and develop pure faith in the Three Noble Truths, to be effective. There are some people who, after their ancestors, parents passed away, also invited monks to chant sutras, recite the Buddha's name, transcendently, but consider the monks as if they had no relationship with themselves, the master chanted his sutras, homeowners, relatives take care of their guests, drink, play cards, have fun, make a lot of noise. Super like that, homeowners, relatives have no respect for monks, it's like hiring workers, the money is gone, noisy chantings are good, but it has no effect on people. died. The most important thing, the descendants of the relatives, diligently, diligently, adhere to the power of the Three Jewels, invited monks to guide themselves in chanting, reciting Buddha's name. It wasn't that I gave him the money, he chanted the sutras for me. Therefore, it is necessary for oneself to earnestly earnestly, the confession to follow the monks, to be able to rely on the trinitarian energies, to save the dead loved one, to bring the dead in perverse conditions. , was born into heaven, the human realm. Normally there are many people chanting Relatives have no respect for the monks, it's like hiring workers, the money is gone, noisy chants are fine, but it has no effect on the dead. The most important thing, the descendants of the family, diligently and devotion, respect the power of the Three Jewels, invite monks to guide themselves in chanting, reciting Buddha's name. It wasn't that I gave him money, he chanted sutras for me. Therefore, it is necessary for oneself to earnestly earnestly, make a confession according to the monks, to be able to rely on the trinitarian energies, to save the dead loved one, to bring the dead in peril. , was born into heaven, the human realm.

Normally there are many people chanting bring the dead, who are in conditions and conditions, to be born into heaven, the human realm. Normally there are many people chanting Jizō , these things require everyone to know and pay attention to.
It is necessary to cultivate merit within 49 days. Why so? Because “in 49 days, the dead always expect their relatives to cultivate blessings for salvation. Over 49 days, depending on career life report "( Duty of the lower business Prayer ). Within 49 days here say, actually not necessarily 49 days, someone within seven days of life, someone two weeks, three weeks of life, at most seven weeks to receive retribution. So within 49 days, the dead always longing, looking forward to their relatives, relatives, praying for the Holy Trinity, bless them, maintain all the merit for them, maybe on the verge of destruction. get a chance to improve. At this time, the person is dead, living in intermediate life, he has no strength, he cannot do anything in control, he only hopes that his relatives are super, saved. If over 49 days, no people can save, only suffering in three evil ways. It is like riding a train, once we reach the station, we cannot help but get off. So when a loved one dies, a way of salvation must be established in 49 days. Just like when people break the law, you can invite a lawyer to defend or defend. But if the court has a final decision, there is no way to change it.
4. Save the fallen
Of course, it is best not to do evil, so as not to fall. If you have created negative karma already, but are still alive, you can give good deeds, practice all merit. If dead, within 49 days, should do merit to save. If after 49 days of death, according to karma, is there any way to save? This would be irreversible without great energy. Just like after the court has made a final decision, no pardon cannot be reduced. How to save sentient beings who have fallen to hell? This is entirely based on the earnest and saving filial piety of the descendants. See the Jizō Bodhisattva Sutta's Vow to tell the story of Jizō Bodhisattva in the past, it is possible to know how to save the fallen. Had fallen to hell, still can save. Beijing Location Tibet referring to two facts: One is the female Brahmin, and the other is the Quang Muc. This is all about the past life of Jizō Bodhisattva. In the past life, there was a Jizō Bodhisattva life as a female brahmin, mother did not believe in the Three Jewels, cultivated according to wrong views, after death she fell into suffering hell. The female brahmin knew that her mother did not believe in the Three Jewels when she was alive, obeying the words of the evil teacher, she will surely fall into hell, immediately giving alms, practicing blessings for her mother, seeing the Buddha statue. worship. Wailing bitterly, Buddha entered Nirvana, if Buddha was still alive, you could ask him where his mother was born. Her mind was in extreme pain. At that time, there was a voice with her, teaching her not to be too sad, just single-mindedly reciting the symbol of the Buddha of Enlightenment in the United States of Tathagata (at that time He showed Nirvana). where is she Brahmin women respectfully, cut off the concept, one heart confesses to recite the Buddha's sign. Not long after, in the Ba-la-Mon woman found herself to hell, asking if her mother was here? The good prison said: "She asked her daughter to be filial, give her, cultivate her blessings, especially recite the Buddha's sign for her, leaning on this merit, was born into heaven". Through this evidence, we know the devotion of a filial son, the same indescribable merit of reciting the Buddha's name, two synthetic induction energies, the sinner, though he has fallen to hell, can also be saved. depends on this merit, was born into the heavens ”. Through this evidence, we know the devotion of a filial son, the same indescribable merit of reciting the Buddha's name, two synthetic induction energies, the sinner, though he has fallen to hell, can also be saved. depends on this merit, was born into the heavens ”. Through this evidence, we know the devotion of a filial son, the same indescribable merit of reciting the Buddha's name, two synthetic induction energies, the sinner, though he has fallen to hell, can also be saved.
Quang Muc, also the filial piety that Jizō Bodhisattva has shown in her past life, her mother loved to eat fish when she was born, committing a serious crime of killing. She knew that her mother would fall into evil ways after death, so sometimes the Arahant entered the great concentration of contemplation, that of course her mother was falling in hell. After that, also recite the Buddha's mind, respectfully make offerings, use the energy of filial piety, save the mother from suffering.
Through the two evidence that the Tathagata said in the Jizō Sutra , we know that although sentient beings have fallen to hell, they only need the filial heart of their descendants earnestly sincerely, plus recite the Buddha's name, respectfully, adhere to it. There is a line of communication between children and parents, and the blood relationship, depending on the majesty of the divine power of the Three Jewels, can help parents be liberated. The salvific compassion of ordinary people (no relation at all), although there are feelings, but parents and descendants are the intimate flesh, will definitely sincerely sincerely, profoundly energetic the biggest, of course the easiest to save.
When reciting the Buddha's name, the worshiping ceremony for the deceased should be seen as doing merit and being able to induce. The sutras say: People who chant the sutras will get 6/7 merits, the dead only 1/7, so sometimes people come to chant, recite Buddha's name, not equal to their efforts to practice in life. So, while the body is still healthy, we should diligently recite the Buddha's name, cultivate all the merit that we can cultivate, and will not be afraid of peril. If he died, of course his relatives should cultivate blessings, give alms and save him. If you've fallen, it's very difficult to "pull up"! Only a relative's earnest devotion can save. Jizō's bodhisattva uses the great vow of love, only presenting this method to evil beings years ago, for all sentient beings in the evil way of salvation. Currently in the Chinese Buddhist world, the super work of ancestors, relatives, is very popular and popular,END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.5/10/2020.
