The Lotus Sutra. UNITED STATES SELLER consists of seven volumes, divided into twenty-eight products. Food Pho Mon is the twenty-five product, but in the old text, it is twenty-four, because there is a lack of a product Ðề-Bà-Ðát-Ða (the twelfth product). The Prussian Noble Phantasm demonstrates the wonderful miraculous merits and unthinkable realm of Bodhisattva Guan Yin. There are ten conditions that say this Prussian product; These are 1) Human Law, 2) Compassion, 3) Phuoc Hue, 4) Chon Ung, 5) Duoc Chau, 6) Transparency, 7) True Rights, 8) Tales, 9) Duyen Willow, and 10) Intelligence. 1. Human Law: "Human" means people, and here is the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara; "Dharma" is the current Pho Mon Thi method. Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva can save sentient beings from seven kinds of accidents, eliminate the three poisons, and fulfill the two wishes of beings; so he is an inconceivable figure. He said the Pho Mon Thi Hien law again, with all the prayers, without understanding. This "Dharma" is an unthinkable method; because we can not think about it, so it is called Dieu-France Because Nhan (people) here can't think about it, so we can also call it the Dieu. As Dieu people, the new Dieu-France is worth calling Pho Mon, which can be called True-General-fit. So, due to the predestined relationship of Humanity and Dharma, should say the Noble Phantasm. 2. Compassion: Due to the conditions of Compassion and Compassion, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara says this Universal subject. Why is it called "From?" Funny word or ban. Why is it called "Bi?" Compassion often saves suffering. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara saves seven things, disarms the three poisons and satisfies the two desires of beings. These seven vices in the texts speak very carefully; Those are fire, water, and the devilish demons (storms), sticks, demons, shackles (prison labor), and robbery. What are the three poisonous things? Those are three poisonous greed, anger, and ignorance. The two things that we wish are for the birth of a son and for the birth of a girl. In all beings there are three kinds of poison, hatred and delusion. However, if the person is more greedy, often respectfully recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara then be free of greed. If the person has a lot of yard, they often recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara reverently, then he can leave the yard. If people have a lot of ignorance, they often respectfully recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, then be free of ignorance. This greed, if all are mentioned, is very much, a lot of anger is not less, and ignorance is neither much nor less. Saying it more is not necessarily much, saying it less is not much. Why is it called ignorance, or foolishness? Due to lack of wisdom, not deep understanding, not comprehension of the implications, seeing the reason but not seeing right (the truth is not true), so it is called ignorance. Because of ignorance, although seeing that logic is not correct, knowing it is that but not knowing why it is. Based on the doctrine of Wang Yangming, a Chinese scholar, a foolish person is someone who cannot practice in unity. According to him, the reason why he did not do it was because he did not know; if he knows, he will do it immediately. He again said that those who know but do not do, it is because they do not really know; If he knows the truth, he will definitely do it. Vuong Duong Minh is a very famous scholar in China, his doctrine is that Tri Hanh Hop Nhat - knowing and doing is one - if real people know, they will definitely practice; just because he doesn't know, he doesn't. This also means that those who are rightly knowledgeable do not do stupid things. Why do people work stupid? Because he doesn't understand, doesn't know. So I say this doesn't make sense. There are poems about foolish people as follows: Beautiful and bright flowers are beautiful, bright and bright, the moon is afraid of every full night, A land with streams becomes wine, Old forest without trees will not shake money. The foolish-minded flower-lover said, "I want this flower to be beautiful forever and ever, not fading; the light is as beautiful as this." A full moon enthusiast said: "What bright moon is afraid of every full night? Last night the full moon was so beautiful, how good it would be if the full moon were all night! Every night out to watch the moon, the moonlight is bright. That's enough, you don't have to use electric lights, save money while using natural light is even better! " Isn't that stupid? The moon is full, and the flowers bloom and wane. There must be a time when the flower blooms, the full moon must sometimes a crescent moon, which is the cyclical law of heaven and earth. People who like to drink alcohol think: "Every day I go to buy wine, and whiskey or brandy is very expensive. If all the ponds on earth turn into wine ponds, so when I crave wine, just come to the pond to drink it, it is convenient. Additional info!" And those who want money, dream: "I have to work now to make money, it is too hard. I wish all the trees would turn into 'money trees,' on the tree full of gold stalks and money. dollars, so when you need money, just pick it and spend it, how convenient it is! " Those unenforceable wishes are all foolish delusions. Again, the easiest to understand example. Like someone who hasn't gone to school, hasn't even attended primary-secondary education yet — but wants to get a PhD in university. Do you say this makes sense? Having not studied through primary school, How can a Doctorate degree be granted him? There are also people who never work in the field, but when the crop comes, they want to harvest like people! That is all ignorance! There are even people who don't buy lottery tickets but expect to win the lottery, what a dumb idea! However, most people suffer from delusions of "not doing but want to eat." So what to do? There is this disease that needs to be fixed. Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara saves seven victims, detoxifies three things, wishes for two things, which is great compassion. Again he benefits all sentient beings, causing sentient beings to leave suffering and rejoice, which is the Great Prayer. Because of the love and love of great compassion, he said this product of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. 3) Phuoc Hue: Bodhisattva Quan The Am is able to "save suffering," distinguishing all the different sounds of the world - good, evil, suffering, The sound of joy, right sound, the sound of disturbance is because He has wisdom in right feet. Where did His wisdom come from? It is because He alms Prussia, by bringing the dharma to sentient beings, so He is blessed with this solemn blessing-merit. So it was said that because of the predestined relationship, Phuoc Hue said Pham Pho Mon. 4) Chon Respect: "Chon" is Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara using the magic power of his feet to rescue seven victims, disarm three poisons, to satisfy two desires of beings. He appeared again thirty-two Application incarnation-also called Application of the body-to educate beings; Therefore, there should be this Chon Ung predestined. 5) Duoczhou: Why is it called "Pharmaceutical?" "Pharmaceutical" is Pharmacy-King-life. Why is it called Pharmacy-King-life? A long time ago, a man went up to the mountain to cut firewood and sell it at the market. A certain healer saw light emitting from his bag of wood, Then buy all that load of firewood. At home, he took out the firewood and saw inside there was a piece of Duoc tree-king. After the healer has obtained the Medicine-King-Life-life, meets any disease, just take the Medicine-King-Life lightly on the patient's body, or lightly hit the patient, the sickness will be gone. many people. That is why it is called Pharmacy-King-life. Why is it called "Chau?" "Chau" this is Nhu Y Bao Chau. Why is it called Nhu Y Bao Chau? "Like" is satisfied, also makes you delightfully satisfied, satisfying your requirements, fulfilling all of your wishes. If you want to eat something, Nhu Y Chau immediately appears that dish, you do not need to go buy. If you want to wear nice clothes, just think of Nhu Y Chau: "I want a beautiful outfit, which is rare in the world," At that time, Nhu Y Chau immediately appeared in the correct clothes you wanted. Even if you want a house, it can show up. You wish: "Tonight I want to live in a very luxury house", this Bao Chau will immediately appear the house as you want. After staying one night, on the second day, the house automatically returned to Nhu Yzhou. What food do you want to eat, Nhu Y Chau immediately appears that food, the amount is just enough, not excess or lack. In terms of clothes, you also do not need to buy a shirt rack, just take it off and it will automatically return to the Nhu Y continent. Therefore, the grain of Europe is called "Nhu Y," satisfied with satisfaction, it is a miracle. How big is Italy? This pearl is very small, you can take it with you at will; it is not heavy and does not take up space. The universal Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is similar to Medicine-King-life and As Y European, can make everyone satisfied and satisfied. As long as you recite the Prayer of Prayer, we hope that everything will be satisfied. But it's not that chanting today, tomorrow it will be effective. It is necessary to first prepare a very stable facility, like building upstairs, to first make a solid foundation; The foundation is not stable, there is no way to build the upstairs house. Although Prussian Discourse has a divine touch like Dupri-king-life and Nhu Y Chau, it is also an inconceivable mystery, but first you need to recite the Prussian Noble Phantasm. You have to chant and recite each day until Guanyin Bodhisattva recognizes that you are suitable and sincere, then you will be satisfied with whatever you pray. It is impossible not to chant normally, When you want the bridge to instantly touch you. Therefore, normally you must also definitely make use of the practice of spiritual practice, so that when needed, the Prussian Quality will display the unthinkable miracles like the Medicinal tree and the As Y jade. But first, you yourself need to constantly recite it! Someone said: "In Buddhism there are too many things to learn! Having recited the mantra of Lang Nghiem, Uncle Dai Bi, now we have to recite the Prayer of Prayer again. Then there is too much time, we cannot have enough time. hours?" You do not need too much time, as long as you sleep less than an hour a day, talk a little less, this lock can be done right away. If you don't want to be satisfied, say, "I don't expect anything. I don't have greed, You recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, sometimes with obvious inspiration, and sometimes silently inspired. Clear touch means that everyone can see, know. For example, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara helps sentient beings, in the Prussian Class it says: "Oil in the great fire, the fire cannot be burned." In the Surangama Sutra, when the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara talks about atrium Vien Thong, it is said: "Fire can not be burned because the nature of fire is the feet, emptiness is the fire." For example, if you are sitting in the room, one-pointedly concepting the name of Bodhisattva, suddenly a fire happened. At that time, as long as you can sincerely recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, even if the next house catches fire, your house will still be harmless. But that must be unintentional, not intentional! If you tried to set a fire on purpose to see if your house was on fire, it must be on fire! Why? Because you originally wanted to try the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara! Because you have no firm faith, you should try Him like that. Like if you have a friend for example, because you want to know if that friend is really honest with you, is he a good person, "meet gold without blinking", then wait when the friend comes to play and try The idea of ​​dropping five hundred dollars on the ground and thinking: "If he was a good man, even if he knew he couldn't see it, he wouldn't take that money." Why would you want to challenge your friend? It is because you have not got the right judgment about that friend, do not know if he is really a good person, so you just experimented like that. In the sutras, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, it is said: Oil in the great fire, the fire cannot burn. In this regard, if you do not believe at all, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara will not pay attention to your nowhere. You want to jump into the sea to commit suicide, say, "I jumped into the ocean to see if there is a shallow space or not?" You want to test to see the miraculous power of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara that shows that you do not have faith in him. If you do not have faith with the Bodhisattva, he may not want to pay attention to your nowhere. You argue: "If I don't test, how do I know if it's real or fake?" You know it's real, how about it? Without knowing that it is real, then what? You know, everyday you still have to eat, wear clothes, you can live; Then what do you need to do more of the extra work? The induction is clear, everyone knows. Like the house next door is on fire and our house is not on fire Isn't that obvious? Everyone knows clearly: "Ah! He is inspired by reciting the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara! Believing in Buddha is truly a miracle." That is the manifest induction. There is also a secret touch. For example, you should have had an accident or fell into the sea and got swept up by water, but in your invisible, inspired by Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, you don't have to face that danger. In secret, He makes your accident go away, without you even knowing it at all; that's called secret induction. As if someone should have been burned to death in the fire, but thanks to that person trusting the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, he silently disarmed the accident. That is also a secret induction. Even if you are sitting on the plane, the plane should have malfunctioned - traffic is convenient today, but the number of deaths caused by airplanes, trains, taxis ... But you by reciting the Prayer, by reciting the Great Compassion mantra, by believing in the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, he silently, without letting anyone know, quietly helps you "turn luck into luck." It is called "encountering hungering kiet, turning danger into security." Humanity has a relationship Show Tantric so say the Universal Subject. This product has the display of the secret interpreter-Hien also interpreter but also interpreter; because Hien Secret are all common members, so the merit of the Universal Monk is inconceivable. The Prussian subject has countless miracles of use, the uncle Dai Bi also has such miracles. Now I am telling you an induction that happened in my hometown. In my hometown in the Northeast (Manchuria), there is a very wealthy farmer. That fall, he loaded his farm produce into his car and sold it to the market; After selling, bring the money home. When he was about three miles away from home, he suddenly encountered bandits blocking the way. This farmer saw a robbery ahead, when he panicked and lamented: "What should I do? Run away?" But the bandits have seen it, they can't hide it; If you do not escape, you must be robbed. At that moment, he chanted the Great Compassion mantra, and his carriage kept on straight ahead. As his car got closer to the bandits, a man came out from among the bandits, went to the front of the car and said, "You give me the whip so I can drive it!" He obeyed, gave the driver's whip to the other. His car passed by the bandits and they couldn't seem to hear anything, so he was not robbed. Waiting for the car to run to where the bandits could no longer see it, the coachman returned the whip to him and said: "Now go away, nothing else." Because he saw the coachman help him out of the bandits, he thought that he was also a bandit. If you have been robbed, dare to ask what is the noble name of the birth? Where is it now? In the future, I will come to the palace to pay tribute. " The other person replied: "My name is Ah The Erect." If you recite the mantra of Great Compassion, you all know well, is not there a Dharma protector named Abhidharma? In the picture, the dharma protector at the back of his shoulder has two wings, named A The Erect. But at that moment, the farmer wondered: "Oh, who is A Thue Dung?" Then he forgot that "A Thought" it is a mantra in Great Compassion and is the name of a protector. Until the A The Erect passed away, no longer saw it, the farmer suddenly remembered: "Ah, is this not the dharma protector of Great Compassion?" However, when he remembered, he could not find "A Thought" anymore, he did not know where he was going! Above is one of the unthinkable realms of Uncle Dai Bi. If the peasant thought, "Let me try chanting the Great Compassion mantra to see if there is any experience," all of A The Enlightenment will not come to save him. It is through him that he does not want to experiment, but only one belief: "Reciting the mantra of Great Compassion will be able to meet evil karma, change danger into security"; and indeed he was satisfied, not plundered by bandits. 7) True Rights: Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara uses the power of the Dharma body to quietly, The secret to helping sentient beings is "Really." He used the thirty-two Institutional emanations to educate sentient beings, that is, "Rights." "Right" is a means of manipulation, also a temporary method, not a permanent one. Because Bodhisattva Guanyin uses the cause of this true condition, so he said the Prussian Food. 8) Tale: Why is it called "Copy?" "Copy" is the basis, "Check" is the mark. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara uses a dharmakaya that is universal in all beings; That dharmakaya is "Ban." He used the Application of the incarnation again to educate sentient beings; those bodies are "Tiches." The Dharma body of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is like a bright moon; His "accumulation" is like the shadow of the moon shining on a thousand rivers and water. It is called: "The water is filled with thousands of moonlit rivers." There is only one bright moon illuminating the rivers, and all the moon shadows in the rivers are from the body of this single moon illusion. The moon in the water is the water, the "product;" the moon in the sky is the "copy." Due to the predestined relationship, that says Pham Pho Mon Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara uses a dharmakaya that manifests throughout the mind of all sentient beings, making them all convert too self-reliant, dedicate themselves to the top, leave suffering to be happy, eventually becoming a Buddha. At this point, someone said: "No wonder! The reason I am not too self-centered is because the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara does not appear in my mind, causing me to make so many mistakes, and even refuse to change. " Smokers think: "Perhaps it is because Bodhisattva Guan Yin is not subject to me, does not want to help me quit smoking." Those who like to drink alcohol say: "I want to study the Dharma, but unfortunately I can't quit drinking. It is the fault of Bodhisattva Guanyin, because he won't help me." They thought that and then gave birth to resentment to Guanyin Bodhisattva: "The Bodhisattva Guanyin is so unfair! Why do you help people without helping me?" This is foolish, even more foolish, so two ignorance is piled up. Why did Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara not teach you? That is because you do not listen to His teachings alone. You hear the title Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, you must convert too self-centered, you must clear your mind. At the same time, it is necessary to understand that: Understanding the past is not counting, Knowing the future can be traced. Everyone must know that the past is over, finished; and the future is coming, we can change it to follow the path of goodness. But as you know, if you try to commit it, the crime is compounded. Therefore, it is too wrong to blame Guan Yin Bodhisattva for not protecting you! Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara always wants to protect you, but unfortunately, the door of your heart is tightly closed, preventing him from entering. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara only sighed: "Oh! How pitiful these beings are!" So you should not blame Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, but must blame yourself for lack of enthusiasm. 9) Duyen Lieu: "Duyen" is the cause, "Will" is the willow. Why is it called "Willow?" This is the cause has ended, has ended. You can also say "willow people" that is to understand the cause. During this summer's retreat (1968), everyone woke up very early and made use of every moment to study the Dharma. Those who live far away wake up at four o'clock at night to be able to come here to study Zen and study the scriptures. There are also people who are studying Bachelors and Ph.Ds at the University of Washington in Seattle also come to join this course. This shows that they have realized the importance of Dharma. Why did they come from so far away to come here (San Francisco) to study Zen, study the scriptures, study Buddhism? It is because they want to "will" the "human" that. Listening to the sutras is the seed of "willow people;" you have the predestined relationship to listen to the sutras, which is the "predestined" condition of the cause. So, because of the predestined relationship of Duyen Lieu, this should be said. 10) Wisdom: Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara uses his wisdom, solemn wisdom and virtue to educate sentient beings, his fruitfulness is solemn wisdom. "Wisdom" is the Wisdom of Hue, ie the virtue of mind. "Paragraph" is Germany, that is, eliminating, cutting off all ignorance. The German passage is also known as Phuoc Duc. Because he can eliminate ignorance, there is true dignity and virtue. The Buddha is full of both blessings and wisdom; Although Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is a Bodhisattva, but he has solemn merit and solemn virtue. So, "Wisdom" is also called "Phuoc Hue." Above are the ten conditions that say the quality of Bodhisattva Quan Am Bodhisattva, the twenty-fifth product of the Lotus Sutra. Before studying the text, let us learn about the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. I believe that Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is very familiar to all of you, because he is a great compassionate Bodhisattva and has very predestined relationships with all of us. Quan is "the ability to contemplate chi" - wisdom of wisdom, wisdom is used to contemplate. The Sound is the realm of contemplation - the sounds of the world are the realm of contemplation. Regardless of the sounds of the world, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is all heard. He knows every single sound of each being; why? Because he constantly observed those sounds. Throughout the day, he looked at one place and another, looking for any sound or not. The sound is inherently to be heard, why is it said here that "watch?" Sound that can "see," can "see"? We cannot, but the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara can "see" sound. He sees sounds as if they were recorded on a radar screen, and each being is indicated by a small flash (blip) on the radar screen. He can follow your every sound. That is an explanation. Again it can be explained that: Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is capable of hearing with the eyes and seeing with the ears! Although we say that He observes the sounds of the world, He can also hear with his eyes! He could not only use his eyes to see, but he could also use his eyes to hear. Why? Because He has supportive powers of the Six sense faculties. Those who practice according to the Buddhist Sutras, who achieve the realm of the Three Sows, or the Purified Six sense doors, all have the ability to use the Six sense doors; the lake is Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara! So, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara's ears can talk, can eat and drink; His eyes can hear and think too. That is the realm of the six sense bases that the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has witnessed long ago; and thus, He is able to contemplate the sounds of the world. Perhaps someone wonders: "Why is Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara so much, Want to embrace too many things? From morning to night diligently examine the sound? What for? "Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara does so because he cannot leave the beings of you, me, and so many others. He considers all sentient beings the same way. Slapping like a mother who always cares for her children U always notices if one cries, the other is hungry, whether the other is cold, He is busy all day looking after our beings. question: "Are you like a baby-sitter?" Yes, almost as well. The thing is that he is not paid! That is the most disadvantage for Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara! ignoring sentient beings, so He wanted to contemplate the sounds of the world, to see if there were any beings suffering, He would release the suffering for them, Or if there is any kind of being in trouble, then He will relieve the accident for that living being. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara "view of suffering" For Him to listen to the cries of beings that come to save them from suffering. If you are suffering, just recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, you will all be "unlucky," and everything will be as smooth as you would like. Most people in the world do not know this miracle, so when they encounter dangers and uncertainties, they do not know how to recite the name of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. If you are in danger when you can recite the name Guanyin Bodhisattva, you will be at peace. If you are in a fire, the fire will not burn you. If you fall into deep water, the water does not drown you. If you cannot swim, you will find yourself being pulled into a shallow space. That is due to the induction power of Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara. In times of emergency, as long as you can recite His name, you will surely be inspired and saved. However, you need to really have faith; can not hesitate, sell doubtful credit. Suppose you were in a fire and recited the name of Avalokiteshvara with doubt: "Is it true that Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara will come to save you? No way! holy like that! " Because of that doubtful thought, He cannot come to rescue you. Why so? Because you don't believe, don't have faith in Him! You need to sincerely believe with all your heart: "I recite the name of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, he will definitely come save me!" Or if you are about to be eaten by a fierce tiger, you immediately close your eyes and chant " Nam Mo Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara. Namo Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva ... "; suddenly the tiger will not be able to open his mouth anymore. That is thanks to the power of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. The Bodhisattva is" sentient feeling, "who goes to enlighten sentient beings, to help them become enlightened. They are also "enlightened sentient beings," enlightened sentient beings. Friendship sergeants. "At that time, the Endless Bodhisattva, right from his seat, got up, put his shirt on his right shoulder, and put his hands in the direction of the Buddha, saying:" Religion! What are the conditions of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, but the name is Quan Avalokiteshvara? "At that time was the moment. When was that time? It was the time when the Endless Bodhisattva at the Dharma Assembly asked about the conditions. is called Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva; it is also at this time, when finished speaking the product of the Bodhisattva Bodhisattva now is the time to say the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. Taste Endless Italian Bodhisattva. Why is it called Endless Italy? In general, there are three endless things: 1. The boundless world of noise: The world is boundless, we should not assume that this world is what we can see and hear, it is one. the limit of the world. That is not where! This world is boundless to the limit, there is this world, another world, boundless worlds; this realm, another realm, infinite realms of water, infinite, so it is called the boundless world of noise. Why is it called noise? Noise is disturbance; turbulence is uncertainty; Uncertainty also means dynamism. Tran means impure, in the world there are many mental beings. See when the new sun rises, in the sunlight you can see a multitude of objects rising and falling in the air, wobbly and swayed, suddenly high and low Where did these mortalities come from? How much dust does this world come from? Considering the origin, tracing the root cause of this mortal matter is very important. All this mundane appear from the mind of each being to appear. Why? Because in the mind of beings too many delusions. Hope is like the ceiling wandering without security, always fluctuating. We try to observe innumerable delusions, they are so many that they cannot be counted. Counting does not know how much! In the Sutra Pitaka says: "In a thought there are ninety-na-na." The moment-moment is a very short period of time, but in a single moment there are nine hundred times of birth and death, so it says "The world is boundless with noise." 2. Beings endlessly bring karma: The world is boundless, because of the world, there are also beings. Beings are born of harmonious conditions. There are many things that are born of harmony and conditions, roughly four things: fetus, ovule born, low birth and birth. Why are pregnant? Where there is a pregnant woman, a pregnancy is born because of love, that person gives birth to a new life. The human ovule thinks that birth, that is due to thought that forms. Low birth is a wet place to be born, in a place where wet air can also be born. Birth is a transformation that is born, it is a natural being that transforms, which is born and does not depend on the conditions of its parents. To put it more carefully, there are twelve types of sentient beings that are not apart from eight things: There is materiality, no materiality, thought, utopia, not materiality, not materiality, neither thought nor utopia. Sentient beings so many, where does the end come from? Beings are from Buddha nature. That's why we say: " If you are pure of your mind, if you cut out craving, it is not far from becoming a Buddha. This "Ai Ha" really has no bottom, the deeper it sinks, the deeper it sinks, so it is "in to" (no bottom). "Lang thao" is a constant rushing wave like water waves. Why are there waves in seawater? Because in the mind there are waves. In the mind of living beings there are waves because the love-song has waves. This love would like to unravel. Again using a sharp knife to cut love is not easy. But if you have true wisdom then solving this problem is not difficult, it is called "The Sword of Wisdom Ending the Love String." People without wisdom fall in the sea of ​​love, the deeper they stir. To stir up until ever? That is because it has no bottom, the deeper it stirred, the deeper it stirred, the more it stirred. Due to the three reasons mentioned above, the Endless Bodhisattva wants to turn this infinite world into the world of Great Bliss, wants to teach infinite beings to become Buddhas, and wants to fill the bottomless nanny into a flat. So this Bodhisattva called Endless Italy. Bodhisattva is Sanskrit short, said enough is Bodhi Slapping-reda. In the Chinese sense, "Bodhisattva" is enlightenment, "Slapping" is love. Bodhi is enlightenment, Slapping-reda is sentient. The Bodhisattva uses the ethic of enlightenment to enlighten all sentient beings. I am enlightened, then I want to find a way to teach people to enlightenment, that is called self-awareness, enlightenment.Where do these Bodhisattvas come from? Bodhisattvas come from sentient beings. the other is also sentient beings, all the nature of sentient beings as we are today, nothing else, but they are enlightened in sentient beings, enlightened in sentient beings, And here we are, who are confused in living beings, are still not enlightened. If you are enlightened today, today is the Bodhisattva, tomorrow you are enlightened, tomorrow it is the Bodhisattva. Which enlightenment? Enlightenment ignorance. If you know where ignorance comes from, you can destroy it immediately, that is "awareness". If ignorance cannot be broken, it is "involuntary." Breaking ignorance, the Dharma nature manifests itself, also dryness; Love is dry, wisdom is money. That is enlightenment. The bodhisattva is enlightened sentiently, which is also sentiently enlightened. Bodhisattvas are also called beings "great mind," because their spirituality is very large; also known as the Enlightenment, because they can open the ignorant mind of sentient beings to display the available Buddha nature. Immediately get up from your seat. Above the Dharma Flower Assembly, the Endless Bodhisattva will hear the Buddha say that the Noble Phantasm of the Bodhisattva is finished, Immediately got up from his seat. Why get up? No matter what big hall you are in, when you want to say you need to get up first, you can't sit down and ask. That is too arbitrary! At that time, the Endless Bodhisattva wanted to say, He not only got up but also slipped his shirt on his right shoulder. Why must we reveal the right shoulder? That is to show respect. Clasp your hands towards the Buddha. Next, he Endless Italy clasped his hands and said: From the moment At that moment, the Endless Bodhisattva stood up from his seat, slipped his shirt on his right shoulder, and folded his hands toward the Buddha, saying that it was Sun fake A Nan when he wrote the scriptures. This passage is used to describe the conditions and conditions of this conference. Starting from "World Religion" is what the Bodhisattva Endless Italy said. The Ton! World Religion is the noble of the world and out of the world. The world and the world both honor Him. What causes the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara due to what conditions is the name Quan Thế Am? The Bodhisattva Endless Italy after the Bodhisattva, then said: "The Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has such great power, such a great will of compassion - He can save seven tribulations, detoxify the three , for two things, there are ten fearless men, nineteen times the sermon, showing thirty-two candidates - by what conditions is he called Quan The Am? " Due to the conditions, it is also to ask that Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara in the past practiced what method whose name is Quan Avalokiteshvara? The Buddha told the Endless Bodhisattva: "Good man, son! If there are countless hundreds of thousands of sentient beings suffering from suffering, listen to this Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara unanimously confess the name. The Avalokiteshvara immediately contemplate reputation. There, are all for liberation. " Buddha told the Bodhisattva Endless Italy: This sentence is Sun fake A Nan when practicing medical pursuant to the literal sense that he writes down. Friendly male death is the Buddha-name like-ca claim to call the Bodhisattva Endless Italy. Buddha said: "This Thien-male-death! If there are countless hundreds of thousands of sentient beings." "If yes," is a hypothesis, which is that there will be, but not yet, currently not available, the future may be there. Future or there are hundreds of thousands of living beings. These beings include twelve types of beings: ovule, pregnancy, shortness, chemical, materiality, no materiality, thought, utopia, not thought, not utopia. Life is suffering. "Life" is encounter, to bear. The word "chū," if understood as an auxiliary verb, means many and also refers to the suffering that they must experience. If not considered as an auxiliary object, it means that each being receives some kind of suffering. The "suffering" Is this more or less? In general, there are four types: 1. A person receives a suffering: As mute, a person has suffering, he knows himself, nor can he tell others; it is called "the mute chewing phoenix" (a very bitter medicinal plant). 2. A person has a lot of suffering: For example, a person going to any place will face suffering. If there is no natural disaster, it is also human disaster, if not robbed by the enemy, then he will get a fire. All the afflictions in the world, he has encountered, that is called "a person living a lot of suffering." 3. Many people experience a suffering: Like Vietnam now (1968) is currently at war, during the war, airstrikes, shells, cannonballs, countless deaths. terrible. Many people in a country receive a kind of suffering, which is called "many sufferers." There was one more thing, like the rampant plague, Many people were threatened by this infectious disease and brought back to life. That kind of suffering, though not dead, but suffering from diseases is extraordinary suffering. It is also "many people experience a suffering." 4. Many people suffer a lot of suffering: In addition, there are many other suffering of suffering. This world is the world of suffering, many beings are also suffering, suffering is no less, so how many things are suffering? In fact, it is impossible to count, there are eighty-four thousand things in general. Then what to do when feeling suffering? Everyone has suffering. While we are suffering, we must always remember it carefully, we should not forget the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. Meanwhile, when we experience suffering, listening to this Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, we should confess the name one-pointedly. Hearing that means I don't know. Like in America here, The end is how many people have heard the title of Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara? Find it out? I believe there is no 1% nationwide! You think, there are so many people who have not heard the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, which you have heard now. "Listening" also means being transparent or known. As knowing the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara with the root of the atrium, there are thirty-two Candidates ... self-contained divine power. One-pointed confession: The important thing is that one mind. You should not be mindful, three minded and should not be four-minded. The more mind you have, but it is not the same as doing merit work, the more the better. More and more mind is not good. Why? Because the mind once more will disperse, disbanding that is not specialized, not specialized, no spirit, no effect. If you double-mindedly confess your name, you will not be inspired, but the mind that confesses the mind is even less effective. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. "Quan" is contemplation, "So" is the world, "Yin" is the sound. It is a Bodhisattva who contemplates all the sounds of the world. Instantly check out the other reputation. Immediately contemplate the sound of that being. For liberation. How much suffering are liberated. Liberation means no more. How about no more suffering? Then be happy This liberation is also the attainment of true freedom, no more attachment, no fearlessness. If someone holds the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, even though the fire is great, the fire will not burn, because of the mighty power of this Bodhisattva. If someone was swept away by the water, claiming the title Bodhisattva immediately met shallow. This passage is about the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara saving sentient beings from fire and water, the first two of the seven accidents. If someone holds this title Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. "If yes," is now unavailable, the future is possible. Suppose there is a person in that situation who recites the name Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. "Tri" is a firm grasp, which means not forgetting, that is, the mind that recites all the words: "Male model of Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara." Then the oil entered into a great fire, and the fire would not burn. However, this means that he normally recites Guanyin Bodhisattva, but it is not saying to wait until he is surrounded in a great fire to recite his name, not to say that he will burn incense, now. just recite the Buddha's name, it is not said that there has been an accident today. Today, I recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. There is a saying: "Normally, we do not burn incense, encounter the Buddha's feet." In my spare time, a incense stick does not burn, having a job urgently running and hugging Buddha's feet to ask for help. At that time, even if you hold Buddha's hips, Buddha will not have any eyes. Why? Because normally you do not practice, until you get into trouble to ask for help to the Buddha, it is called "burning incense now, now reciting Buddha's name." There is also a class of people, normally not burning incense and not reciting Buddha's name, but when there is an emergency, Bodhisattva Guanyin also helps them, making them leave their sufferings and be happy. What does that mean? You know, each of us has causes before and after. In the previous life, maybe he had courageously practiced spiritual practice, tried his best to use the Bodhisattva concept of Avalokiteshvara, even created all kinds of merit, in this life, although there is no thought, thanks to the previous life recite, have cultivated goodness, So in this life, even if he does not recite, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara still comes to help. It is thanks to the cause. Regarding the nucleus, there is a distant nucleus, but also a close nucleus. The far cause is the kernel planted from the previous life, the proximal nucleus is the nucleus planted in this life. Someone said: "In the past, I may have sown the seeds, now there is no need to recite. In the future I have an accident, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara will also come to save me." That is not very sure. You ask me to guarantee, I don't dare! If you would start with sincere thoughts from now on, then I can assure you, surely you can be inspired, in the future if you have an accident, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara will definitely come to save you. Because you are not "now burning incense, now touch" there will be absolute. In the past, there was a person who unanimously wished to go to Pho Da Son in Nam Hai to worship Bodhisattva Quan The Am. But in the world there are many irony stories! The day he got on a boat to go to Pho Da Son, worship the Bodhisattva Quan The Am, the house next door caught fire and caught fire. His family members ran to the news: "Not finished! You have to return quickly! Don't go to Pho Da Son anymore. The house next to us is on fire, you have to go back to arrange." He said, "I want to worship Bodhisattva Quan The Am, so I have been a vegetarian for three years, now I am going on a boat. If the house has to be on fire, even if I leave the boat, it will still be on fire. Because of the fire, thanks to the protection of the Bodhisattva, even if I don't get into the houseboat, I cannot burn. With this sincerity, I can not because the house is on fire without going to the Bodhisattva Bodhisattva ceremony! " For him at that time, the housework was ignited, only decided to go to the Bodhisattva Quan The Yin ceremony one-pointedly. After he came back to worship Bodhisattva Quan The Am in Pho Da Son, he saw that the villages on both sides were empty because of fire, only his house remained intact. So someone asked: "Why are the houses around the house burned out and your house is not on fire?" He replied: "Thanks to me sincerely going to the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara ceremony. When I go, I let go of everything, everything burns, I let it all burn, I don't care. It is thanks to Bodhisattva Quan. The Avalokiteshvara protects it! Thanks to the help of His mighty power, my house is so intact! " That is the proof: "Suppose in a great fire the fire cannot burn." Due to the mighty god of this Bodhisattva. Why can't fire be burned? Since Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva possesses great power, fire cannot burn. If washed away by the forced water. If normally you recite the name of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, or unintentionally - don't want to test Avalokiteshvara and jump into the sea to see if there is any experience that doesn't sink? If you want to try, if you do not truly believe, there is absolutely no experience. You will jump into the sea and will definitely sink right away. Why? Because you want to try the Bodhisattva. Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva is not a student, you are also not a teacher, why would you want to test Avalokiteshvara? Because you do not believe that Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has such powers, you should try it. That experiment is okay, but sacrifices your life! Do not use life as a joke, to bet like that! Claiming the title Bodhisattva immediately met shallow. You recite the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara and suddenly you will meet a shallow. How to reach the other shore in the great sea? It is through the power of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara that has such inspiration. Anyone who, if you want to get rid of the suffering of the seven afflictions, must often first often respectfully confess His name. If there are hundreds of thousands of sentient beings looking for gold, silver, long-distance, distant, onyx, coral, amber, pearls, precious things ... enter the great sea. Suppose storm winds blow their boats and boats up and down in the water of Lazarus. In it, if there is a ring to a person claiming to recite the name of Bodhisattva of Avalokiteshvara, then they will be free from the evil of La-killing. Because of that predestined name, the name is Quan The Am. This passage is about the evil Devils, the third of the seven, can also be called the storm. If there are hundreds of thousands of living beings looking for gold, silver, save glass, far away, onyx, coral, amber, pearls, precious things People in the world want these things because they consider them precious. In fact it is an external object. You do not know the treasure of your Self-nature, but you are indulging in external treasures to get things that are of no use or relation to your Self-Nature. But most people like to find gold. Every country loves gold. Since everyone thinks it is a rare treasure, day and night think about how to search, even the nations that fight each other are because of this gold. Why do people like gold like that? Because it is very little, because it is few, it becomes precious. If gold was as much as the land, people wouldn't consider it as valuable. That is: "Things become precious little by little!" Because few people like, even dreaming, seeing gold, some people go to Africa to dig gold, Someone went to America to dig gold. Previously, there was a lot of gold in Old Kim Son, so many people flocked to America, especially the Chinese who came to America to dig gold. After finishing the gold rush in America, they ran to Australia. America has Former Kim Son, Australia has Tan Kim Son. The professionals who treat gold, because they want to go to America to look for gold, are buried in the sea many times. I think the number of deaths is a lot, because in the past, the traffic was not as convenient as now, the news spread was not smooth, so the number of deaths did not know how much. Those people who wanted to go looking for gold on the road met the wind and storm. They were blowing in the sea, and both people and boats sank. Gold is the most precious thing, silver is counted second. There are also Liu Ly, which the Chinese call Thanh Sac Bao, green buu muu. Faraway is a precious gemstone, on its face it has a wheelchair-like pattern on the mud, there is a line of light that resembles a groove on its face, so it is called the Xa. Although it seems that there is a groove, but using your hand to touch the stone surface, it is smooth and smooth, with no marks. This stone is one of seven types of treasures. Onyx is a gemstone. This stone is like a horse's brain, on the white stone color reveals every tiny red line like veins, so it is called onyx. Coral is a coral tree under the sea, some trees up to one meter tall, I have seen trees three feet tall. Corals are fossils, caused by insects in the water that turn into plants shaped like trees. Its material resembles a gemstone, so it is very precious. In China there is a rich man named Thach Sung, he loves comparing his riches to others. One day he went to a party at the house of a Prince relative to the King. At that time, the King gave His Majesty a coral tree that was more than six feet high. Because it is King, nature must be of special esteem. The Prince invited Thach Sung to his house. After the meal, he showed the coral tree to show off. Whoever thought that Thach Sung broke the tree with his hand, making the Prince so afraid, he said: "This tree is bestowed by His Majesty, why did you break such a broken tree that it is no longer of any value!" Thach Sung said: "Do not worry! I will exchange for you another coral tree, tomorrow you come to my house as you choose, if you like which tree I will give you that tree." The next day the Prince came to Thach Sung's house to take a look, and saw a huge array of coral one meter high in the living room! The Prince saw his stomach thinking: "Ah! Why is it called black wind? Because when it surfaced, his face turned black. Because of anger, there is black wind, if not angry, black wind will not rise. What is this sea? As the sea - our Sea of ​​Nature! Black wind is like ignorance of sentient beings. This ignorance is also called defilement. If you are afflicted, there is black wind; if there are no more defilements, the sea of ​​your own nature will calm and calm. How can we find treasure? Get into your own nature to dig for your own treasure. If you dig for your own treasure, you may encounter ghosts. Why are there ghosts? Because one's virtue is not enough, virtue is not enough, morality is not enough. Because there is no cause of merit, the virtue is not round, because the virtue is not round enough, so there is black wind, and the evil spirit. If your virtue is big, the black wind will turn into black. Turn into what? Turns into a good cloud, a good omen. An adage has a saying: High noble dragon, respectable tiger, what is the virtue of respect and devotion? - The high morality of the tiger god means that a person with high virtue, the dragon meets the dragon, he also has to cross himself and not budge. Ancient dragons are a very beneficial type, can cause seizures and earthquakes, move young people to fill the sea like nothing, a great force. But if you have the power, even though the dragon has great divine powers, you will not dare to show authority in front of you, but obediently circled it. As for the tiger, no matter how aggressive, if you do not have anger, it will turn into a domesticated dog and cat, when you meet you will shake your head happily and do not dare eat meat. But you must be virtuous in order to have such a realm, otherwise the dragons won't circle, the tiger won't kneel! The Germany respects demons according to: Once your virtue is sufficient, full, the devil meets you will respectfully respect and bow. So the most important thing is the dignity of virtue. Blowing away their boats and boats drifting in the water of Lazarus. The demonic demons are devils that eat human qi, and are all female, who specialize in eating human qi. If the boat is washed away by the wind and storm in the water of the Devil, as long as there is one person on the boat reciting the name of Bodhisattva Quan The Am, all people on the boat, up to hundreds of thousands of living beings, will be escape from Lazarus. Because of that predestined relationship, this Bodhisattva's name is Avalokiteshvara. Ethics is something everyone should focus on. The reason for human being different from the animal is due to morality. If you do not respect morals, do not know morals, what difference does it make for animals? Moreover, ethics need to practice, must have realistic manifestations; if not, then basically there's nothing left to say. I have a very close friend in the Northeast (Manchuria). Why did he become a best friend? Because you and I are fellow practitioners, fellow practitioners. When I was at home, he used to mourn filial piety beside his mother's grave, he also had filial filial piety beside his parents' grave. The difference is that when he was at home he was a bandit. Before mourning his mother to mourn his mother was a thief, robbery everywhere, blackmail others. During a failed "restaurant" trip, he was severely beaten by someone. After that, over half a year, he was still recovering and still not healed, at that time he became enlightened, thinking: - "For a long time, I have done many wrong things, so my wound has been healed for so long." He made up his mind to make a vow: "If my wound is healed, from now on I will no longer be defamatory." He also vowed to personally come to the grave of his parents to be filial. After taking the vow, the wound naturally pulled the young skin within less than a few days. Of course he still continues to respect the grave. During his mourning time, many miraculous phenomena occurred. For example, one thing "Cut flesh, pray for heaven to stop" for everyone. During the time he was filial, it rained continuously for several consecutive months, no day stopped. He thought, "With this rain, everyone's grain will flood and die!" Thinking that, he determined to stop the rain for everyone, and when he turned his face to the sky, he swore: "If within three days the sky stops, I will cut the flesh on my body to worship Buddha and worship to heaven." He had just finished his vow when, strangely enough, the rain stopped completely in less than three days. He kept his vow by standing in front of the Buddha table, holding a knife and slicing a slice of meat about two degrees on his arm. After cutting meat, he fainted because of the pain. When he woke up, suddenly a district official came, seeing blood on the ground, thinking: - "What did this man cut his flesh for? Must be mad." He came up to ask that he cut the meat to worship Buddha for heaven because the rain would stop for everyone. Quan district heard all the compliments: "You really are too nice!" And for him there is a very good impression. From now on, out of nowhere came a bird with a very special cry. It said: "Do many blessings, do many blessings, very well." All day he just said that, saying to do many good works. Do as much charity work as possible. So I don't fear suffering whatever I do, work all day without free time to watch the sutras but at night also lecture you to listen to them? It is because wanting to give alms a little more, bring the dharma to alms. In America, it can be said that "France" is too little! That way, I take the vow to give you the Buddha-dharma, even though I suffer from hardship, I won't stop or give up. If someone is about to be harmed again, claiming the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, the holder's knife and stick will break every segment to escape. This passage is about the knife and stick problem. If someone is about to be harmed, but can claim the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, the knife and stick of the person who holds it is about the person who wants to kill, has a sharp knife and a club in his hand, is about to want out hand. Breaking each segment. Just as you recite the title of Bodhisattva Guanyin, naturally your neck is stiffer than the steel knife of the other person. In the past, knives are always harder than their necks, But now the time the knife cut to the neck, it was suddenly broken. If you don't believe it, try to see if your neck is as stiff as a knife? Was the knife broken in pieces? It is thanks to the great power of Bodhisattva Guanyin that makes the neck as hard as a rock that his knife is suddenly broken. But to escape. Thanks to that, the problem of knives and sticks is freed. Why is it escaped? Because he recited the name Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. Someone skeptical: "Is reciting the title of Bodhisattva Guanyin with such a hunch?" Not only that but also more hunch! As long as you sincerely believe and sincerely recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, you will be inspired according to your wishes. If the demon Da-rub with La-kill full in the realm of heavenly three wants to harm people, listen to people claiming the title of Bodhisattva Quan The Am, At that time, those demons did not dare to use evil eyes to look at people in situations that could harm them. Assuming there are people, either guilty or not guilty, the shackles and chains tied to the body, proclaiming the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, are all torn, and then be freed. This passage talks about the elimination of demons Da-rub, La-kill and the problem of shackles and chains. If the demons Da-rub with La-close full in the realm of heavenly three. Why is it called the three kingdoms of heaven? Human because three thousand (natural) should be called the three great heavenly water realm. Our world here includes one sun, one moon, one mountain Tu Di, one four people. There are four people of the world including four major continents: Nam Them Bo Chau, Bac Cau Lo Chau, Tay Nguu Hoa Chau and Dong Thang Than Chau. These four large continents form one of the four galaxy. "One" refers to one mountain, one sun, one moon and four continents. One thousand Mount Tu Di, one thousand sun and moon, one thousand four thousand people, called a small world; one thousand sub-worlds into one celestial world; one thousand new worlds is counted as a great world. Because there are three thousand letters, it is called the Three Heavenly Yard (three thousand) of the great world. If in the three great heavenly world is full of demons Da-rub and La-killing. Da Da-Yaks include: Yaksa-yang, No-yak-practice, and No-yak. Da-yak was very fast, now the missile could not keep up with its speed, so it was also known as Devil's Speed ​​or Devil's Disability. Lu-killing is a demon that eats qi, it specializes in eating human qi. Want to harm people. This type of demons Da-rub, La-kill specializes in harming people, wherever they go, they also try to disturb people. As you want to generate Bodhicitta, they are bound to never like, intentionally cause trouble for you, think of all the ways to prevent you from practicing and then turn your mind off. You have generated bodhicitta strongly before, but it sneaks into your body and mind, causing you to spontaneously arouse delusions: "What should practice practice! What is Dharma for! You should not study the Buddha-Dharma anymore! Go to other places to play, everything is free to you, if you like dancing, then dance, if you like listening to music, you will listen. Do, there are so many things that cannot be done! Not to watch singing, not drink alcohol, do not smoke anymore, the whole block must abstain! Buddha-dharma is the more troublesome you learn! " Whoever thinks that means that the demon Da-rub, La-ass set that trap. Someone wants to leave home. It made him think: "Ah, very ordained! All day worked hard, not good at eating, not beautiful, too hard! What to go to practice for? "Think so, then mind. Again, you want to be a Bhikkhu-stilts-ni, demons Da-rub, La-close will come urging him to think:" Oh hello! Should go get married! Getting married every day with a husband companion, more satisfied with pleasure. "Make you stop giving up Bodhi mind, that's the work of the devil Da-la-la-kill. They specialize in damaging spirituality. Bodhi, destroying one's spiritual practice. So say: "Want to harm people." Hear the person claiming the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. But once they hear you recite "The Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara", those demons don't even dare to look at them with evil eyes. The Yin, naturally the aura shines, those demons can't see you if they want to see you. Because they see you with a bright light like electric lights, don't open your eyes. So it says: Can't even look with a fierce eye. They can do harm. Even the eyes can not open, how can they harm? Naturally it has to run away. So you must always recite the name of Bodhisattva Guanyin and you will be protected by him. Suppose there are people again, assuming there is still one person. Either guilty or not guilty. Do not judge guilty or not. Shackles, chains, tied up his body. The offender was of course arrested by the government, handcuffed, and legged. A "sinner" means a person who sins; "No sin" is a person who is unjustly accused, not guilty of a crime, but is arrested and imprisoned by the government in prison, handcuffed, and legged. Chains, chains and chains are means of punishment that sinners must carry, it is used to bind people. If reciting the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. If at that moment he can confess "Nam-model Great Bi of Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara." All are severed. These chains and shackles-shaped things were suddenly broken. Immediately freed. Immediately freed because the cuffs automatically broke, the belt naturally opened. In short, whatever instrument was on the body would naturally fall. This I have seen a lot. At that time, I was at Nam Hoa pagoda. During the Japanese invasion of China, I met a monk who was imprisoned by the Japanese army, both hands and feet in chains. That monk was in prison all day reciting the name of Bodhisattva incessantly confidentially. One afternoon, all of a sudden, the shackles on his body were all broken, the prison door was automatically opened so they escaped. If the slanderer is full in the realm of the three heavenly kingdoms, there is a merchant who leads the merchants to bring precious goods through the dangerous road. There was a person who said, "You should not be afraid, you should confess the name of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, that Bodhisattva, or give sentient beings fearlessness. If you confess your title, you will be able to escape this hijack. " The traders have heard, are reciting: "Male model Quan The Am Bodhisattva," because reciting the name of the Bodhisattva reciting that liberation. If the bandits are full in the realm of the three great heavenly water. Suppose that anywhere in this realm of the three great heavens there has been a slander. "Hackers" are in the old days when they had unjustly against you, so this life was an enemy to steal your possessions. There was a merchant who led merchants to carry goods through dangerous places. There was a merchant who led many merchants, brought along many extraordinary valuables, passing through a place with many bandits and bandits. There was a person who said, "You should not be afraid, you should confess the name of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, that Bodhisattva, or give sentient beings fearlessness. if you confess your title, you will be able to escape this hijack. " But among the merchants there was one who suggested to everyone like this: "Gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen! You should not be afraid. We should all unanimously recite 'Nam. -Mo Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva 'go, because this Bodhisattva uses fearless spirit to protect all sentient beings. But there are some people who do not know this argument, especially the Gentiles, see people bowing to the Buddha and blindly criticize: "It is a statue, a wood carved or embellished. What do you bow for? " Because we ourselves do not have the wisdom of the eyes, we cannot see the radiant Buddha realm that gives birth to such great self, even considering ourselves as better than the Buddha, so we can say what to do with the Buddha! That is a fool who makes a big mistake! If you often respectfully recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, then your lustful mind will naturally leave. Someone said: "This is so damn bad! I like lewd that is not available now, what should I do?" If you like yes, don't worry, then there will be. If you don't like having it then you won't have it. Or many people get angry, often respectfully recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, immediately to leave the anger. What is anger? It is anger, which is defilements, also ignorance. Anger is like fire. That is: "A speck of anger can burn a whole forest of merit." The ancients also said: "A thousand days carry firewood for a fire." That is, you cut firewood for a thousand days with just a single spot of fire that can burn it clean. It is a normal picture of how much merit we accumulate, no matter how long we practice, and once you get angry, ignite the fire, how much merit we accumulate will be burned. What kind of people like ignorant fire? It is A-tu-la. Each individual has its own tendency. People of Buddhism, the majority personality is compassion; People who belong to the Taoist group prefer leisure time, and those who belong to the Humanitarian are predestined to everyone; Under the Devil's way, he is good-natured, he doesn't want to lose, who are dishonest, stealthy, and like the Demon of Lama said earlier, have the intention of "wanting to harm people." People who belong to Animal Path are heavy in craving, whatever they are, they are not afraid as much, as much as possible, greed will not be bored. People of Tu-la religion often get angry, these people get angry immediately, irritated loudly. What should people like that do? Is there any way that can be modified? The Lotus Sutra has taught this method to you carefully, it is to recite: "Male-model Bodhisattva." Furthermore, must continue always without interruption. "Usually" means never ending. Every time you go to the pagoda, if you meet any place where there is to worship Buddha, or worship Bodhisattva Quan The Am, you must respectfully bow your head. Nor should we prostrate today, and then do not prostrate tomorrow; pay homage this morning, in the evening, no prostrations. If we submit to our constant adoration to pay homage to the Bodhisattva Buddhas, then after a long time, that irritable disease will disappear, but we do not know why? If you don't believe me, I will tell you what my experience is. I used to be a person who got angry easily, whenever I said hit was hit, I scolded immediately. YI'm 12, 13 years old and I love fighting. No matter how adult I am, come to me, I have to listen to my command, if I don't listen to my command then I'll fight! Even if you die, you must fight, fight until you accept the new clothes. What is it called? That is a kind of A tu-la action. Later, I learned the Buddha, I realized that such stubbornness was not good. I had to convert the new self, so I often recited the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara respectfully. So now, as a teacher, I have to practice patience. At times a disciple came to bully me, first of all I got angry, but then softly, mildly, patiently until he slowly understands, realizing his fault. Since I used to make other people angry, now I am being bullied by the practitioner. It can be said that this is a kind of retribution! Someone asked: "Which disciple dares to bully him?" Whoever bullies me, that person knows. If many people are ignorant, often respectfully recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, immediately leave the foolish. Before we talked about craving and aversion, now we talked about ignorance. Greed and ignorance are called the three poisons. These three poisons harm our Buddha nature in a coma like sleep. Why are we not enlightened? Life drunk to die dreaming? That is because of these three poisons. Greed is desire. In the past, this craving has great harm to the nature, but some people consider it a supreme enjoyment, so they have caused so many crazy acts, burying their self-nature underneath. structural ceiling. This mundane is more and more, so your light of Buddha nature is not visible. That is the horrors of greed. The harm of poisonous anger is as great as greed. How is poison? Si is stupid. Stupid but does not know that he is stupid, that is foolishness. Some people consider themselves very smart, have wisdom; But in fact, if you ask him: "Where are you from? Where will you be in the future?" then he doesn't know. Coming from not knowing where we came from, not knowing where we were going, can you try to think that such a person is smart? But he himself does not admit that he is a fool. That is: The small benefit of the person who likes it, No one will worry about life and death. In this world, the quest for fame is small, but people all day long, even hurting you, killing people, setting fire are all for benefit. If not for "benefit" also for "reputation"! In this world, the number of nations and people is not counted, but in aggregate there are two classes of people: One is for honor, the other for profit. The fame and fame it dominates, driving crazy about so many people who have not yet enlightened. From birth to death, All are in a state of squeezing, fighting, some people wanting to be mandarins, some people wanting to prosper, some people wanting children, up to the desires of pleasure. Desire for a lifetime, waiting for all kinds of pleasure, but not enjoying much yet then die. I do not know where to die and go! When we live, we all think of ourselves as extraordinary, we feel like we are truly no one. - "I am the person with the most intelligent wisdom. When I was in school, I got the first place every year, whatever I do I will take the lead, one level above me." Considering himself to be unusually intelligent, but in fact, even his facets are unrecognizable! Such intelligence is false, that is the "false intelligence." The person who is truly intelligent does not feel wise in himself. Then see yourself as a fool? Nor do I see myself as dull, even less self-wise. Although, on the surface, it seems to have the same physical and physical condition as everyone else, their thoughts and ideas are clear. Obviously how? Clearly understood that all are illusory. Knowing that everything is fake, they do not indulge in the glory of rich and precious things in their dreams, desire for beauty, fight for self, contend for the first place, fight for fame and gain, but understand everything is impermanent. So the Vajrayana Sutra says: "All legal beings such as dreams, water balloons, As lightning, fog, Please contemplate for real." All legal conditions such as dreams, water polo. What is compounded dharma? Everything that has form, can see, is conditioned. It is like a dream, bubble. Bubble in the sea, do you think it's real or fake? Honestly speaking, Why did it turn out not to be? Say it's fake, why is there a bubble? Although there are saliva, but not reality, can not be true. Shadow, also illusion. Again like the fog; There was a fog in the early morning, but when the sun rose it all disappeared. Electricity is available; but the electric fire, the flint of flames melt away, it is not true. If it is possible to visualize all such things, what is there to be attached to? Without attachments is really understanding. At that time, you will not think the East thinks the West, the more you think the South thinks the North, all the thoughts of the world will be thrown away. Leaving all the mundane delusions, then you won't be able to become a Buddha either, if you want to have no wisdom is not good, it will be natural. So while we don't have wisdom ourselves, we shouldn't assume we have wisdom. Wisdom does not have to seek outside but there is. Should not be born arrogant thinking: - "Among people, I am the most intelligent, most beautiful, outstanding for everyone, super pants, above all." If you have this thought, you are still holding the generals. "General" is inherently foul-skinned, it is like a dream, a water ball. You feed him all day long, beautifully dressed, and wholeheartedly enjoy it. But by the time it leaves, it doesn't pay any attention to you. Someone takes care of this foul skin, while smoking, drinking, eating meat, all day worrying about filling this bottomless hole, filling and flowing, flowing, filling, filling forever, still not full. But people just leave the old for new, new old one after another, because of themselves, they are busy and hard. Why eat a meal a day? Because I am afraid of being troublesome, I should eat a little to reduce trouble. There are some people who think that eating well is the best way to enjoy, I think it is the most troublesome thing. How to explain? If you eat a lot, your stomach will be upset. Eat less, born of greed: - "This delicious food, so eat a little more!" If the food is not delicious, there cannot be greed. The stomach is also not suffering. So those are all troublesome things. Why do people have these troubles? Because I'm too stupid to enjoy, pray for riches, pray for fame, pray for joy, all of that is crazy. You take this and that, the results will be like? In the end we also have to die. At the time of death, I can't bring anything. Isn't that stupid? What to do so stupid? According to the method of the Suttas teaching: "Often respectfully recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara." Your ignorance will be lost and wisdom will appear. Who can know that I am stupid? That is the correct perception of oneself. Had wisdom, to know that I am a fool. If you don't have wisdom on your own, then in the end you cannot know yourself as a fool, the more you think. Being self-ignorant, but assuming that you are very intelligent, isn't it that being foolish to add to ignorance? Before being a fool is not enough, want to turn into a fool twice. Now, if we want to not be foolish, we must often recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara respectfully. That is the best, most miraculous method. Absolutely guaranteed the mystery that cannot be said. What about ignorance and wisdom? What is wisdom? I will say a moral which you will not believe, that is - "Foolish is wisdom, wisdom is ignorance." Why say that? In the Heart Sutra there is a saying: "Sac is no different, no difference is no difference. Sac means no, not material." This realm speaks of sharpness from the feet that are not born. Foolish and wisdom have the same ethics. When you know how to use it is wisdom. If you don't know how to use it, it is ignorance. Ignorance and wisdom are not two, you must see if you know how to use it or not! If you know how to use it, ignorance also turns into wisdom; if we do not know how to use it, wisdom turns into ignorance. If you understand this ethic, you will no longer be insane. This Endless Italy! Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva has such great power and power, making great benefits. So beings often have to mind Him. If there is any woman, or pray to a son, make offerings to Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, Then the boy was born blessed with wisdom and virtue; Or pray to a daughter, and then give birth to a girl with a beautiful appearance, which by sowing the original blessings of her previous life, loved by everyone. The Buddha, after saying these things, told the Endless Bodhisattva: "The Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara not only has the power to save seven tribulations, solve the three poisons as just said, but also have many gods. Common magic used to benefit beings, so sentient beings should often recite this Bodhisattva. " This everyone must pay special attention! Often mindful, is not just reciting at the lips but not mind. In short, to commemorate the memory, always remember the name of Bodhisattva Quan The Am. If there is any woman or ask a boy. Suppose there was a woman who wanted to pray for a son. How can pray be like a prayer? Must follow the same Noble Phantasm in the Sutras of the United States taught, That is to worship, and at the same time use the scent of flowers and fruit ... to make offerings to Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, naturally there can be a boy full of merit and virtue. If you pray for a girl, you can give birth to a girl with a dignified appearance, eyes, nose, mouth and mouth are both beautifully balanced. Blessed root planted in the previous life, loved by everyone. Why is it such a beautiful and dignified appearance? That is due to the previous life, or buy perfume, use dignified things to make offerings to the Buddha, Bodhisattva. Because it contains a group of merit to worship Buddha in the olden days, so you can enjoy your full appearance and good dignity forever. This Endless Italy! Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has such power! If there are beings who respectfully worship Bodhisattva Quan The Am, then the merit will not be overwhelming. So beings should uphold His name. This Endless Italy! If someone maintains the title of the sixty-two Bodhisattva Bodhisattva, offering food, clothes, bed, medicine all his life ... What do you think? Is the merit of such a benevolent male and female friendly? Endless Meaning: "A lot, sir!" Buddha said: "If someone takes up the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, until just one offering ceremony, the merits of these two people are the same, for hundreds of thousands of lives cannot end . " The Buddha, after saying the actions of saving the seven victims, detoxifying the three, fulfilling the two wishes of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara just finished, said: "Hey Endless Mind! This Bodhisattva is as powerful as just now. As mentioned above, if there is any being who reveres and pays the mind to worship the Bodhisattva of Avalokiteshvara, that person's merit will definitely exist without wasting. All beings should take up the title of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. "If you can recite Avalokiteshvara in mind, you will be blessed with inconceivable, unpredictable merit. said: "Hey Endless Italy! Suppose someone maintains the names of many Bodhisattvas, as much as the sand in the sixty-two sterns of the Ganges, and not only chants but also lifelong use of the scent of fruit, or four things: food , clothes, beds, medicine ... to make offerings to the Tam Bao. What do you mean? Do these virtuous men and women have much merit? "After the Buddha finished speaking, the Endless Bodhisattva replied," This merit is very much. "The Buddha said:" Suppose there are people who recite titles. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. Needless to say he has a lifetime of offerings, but it was only possible for a very little time to make offerings to the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara, the merits of these two people were the same. This blessing does not end in hundreds of thousands of generations. "This Endless Italy! Life holds the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara with infinite benefits of such benefits. The Endless Bodhisattva will tell the Buddha: "Bach The Ton! How does Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara go around this Ta-Ba world? How to speak the dharma to sentient beings? What is the means of such things? "The Buddha told the Endless Bodhisattva:" If you regularly take up the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, you can benefit immeasurable merit as said. in the front. This Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva how to educate sentient beings in the Ta Ba world? How to give a sermon to them? The predestined means to educate beings, the means and things like that? "What is called Ta-Ba world?" Ta-ba "is Indian (Saha), translated as" patience , "It is also the ability to endure longevity, that is to say this world is very miserable, it is not easy to bear it. In order to be free from the Buddha, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara immediately embodies the Buddha's teachings on their own degrees. using the body of the Sound-text to get the escape, the Bodhisattva Guan Yin immediately embodies the Qing-text that says the method of them. In order to use Pham Vuong's body to be free, the Bodhisattva Quan The Am immediately incarnated Pham Vuong said the law of them. In order to use the Body of the De Thich to be free, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara immediately embodies the De Thich body to speak their methods. In order to use the body of Freedom in Heaven to get free, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara immediately embodies the Self-Immortal Heavenly speaking the law of them. In order to use the body of Great Freedom in Heaven to get free, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara immediately embodies Great Freedom in Heaven to say their law. The Buddha heard such a question from the Endless Bodhisattva, to answer: "Hey good son! Suppose there are beings who are worthy of using the body of the Buddha in the water realms of the three thousand great heavenly worlds. In the Buddha, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara will manifest the Buddha body coming to speak to those beings. " Here someone asked: " Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is just a Bodhisattva but has not yet become a Buddha, but how can he manifest the Buddha body to speak the dharma! Isn't that claiming to be Buddha? "-Not where! Because Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara in countless eons of the past has become Buddha, the name is Dharma Minh. After becoming Buddha, He did not forget sentient beings. Therefore, when I came back to this world, I hid the body of the Buddha and reincarnated a Bodhisattva in order to save sentient beings. That is called "small and large hidden." La-drought is "in the direction of the Great Path;" Bodhisattva Guan Yin He is "back from the Buddha's body." He turned from the body of the Buddha, "turned the boat," just as people say: "Turn the car back," the purpose is to save us suffering sentient beings. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, although the appearance of the Bodhisattva, in fact, is hidden inside the Buddha's happiness. the behavior of the Buddhas. That is why Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva is able to manifest the Buddha form to teach sentient beings, not to pretend to be the Buddha to deceive sentient beings. Next, the Buddha said: "To use the body of the Buddha's Bich-chi to get free, immediately the Buddha's body of Bich-chi to say their legal degree." Pratyekabuddha Buddha is Sanskrit (Pratyekabuddha), enough to say "Bich-chi-ca-la," translated as Dependent Origination. Dependent Origination has two things: Those born at the time of Buddha's birth are called Dependent Origination; those born in the time without Buddha are called Pratyekabuddha. When the Buddha was born, he was enlightened by cultivating the Twelve Twenty-Second Paths. He observed why there is Ignorance? Ignorance why there is Act? Why is consciousness? Have Identity? Have Luc Import? How have contact? Then there is Tho? Sau Tho has Ai? There Ai has Thu? Because Huu also has Sanh? There is Born and then there is Lao, Death? The whole day contemplating the twelve such conditions, knowing that all are Suffering, No, Impermanence, No-Self, so all let go, and thus become enlightened. Due to contemplating the twelve conditions and conditions that enlightenment should be called Duyen-enlightenment. In the time without Buddha, he also cultivated these twelve conditions; In the spring, we see hundreds of flowers blooming, in the autumn everything wilted, and contemplated the natural metamorphic states, so we can enlighten the birth, the Pillar, the Di, the Death, the City, the Head, the Damage, the No; All material forms are impermanent, by that same reason that is enlightened, called the Independent. Because he was born in the time of Buddha or not, but it is called Dependent Origination or Independent. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara thanks to the divine vision, hearing from the distance, knowing which beings deserve to use the body of the Buddha's body for freedom, they appear the body of the Buddha's Bich-chi to tell them the Method of the Ten-Second-Path-Cause for them sounds like: " Do you know where ignorance is from? It was from where an unconscious thought came from him. Due to an unconscious mindfulness, in the Tathagata of Tathagata he arises Ignorance. If there is ignorance, the birth of the Act, ... "For sentient beings like that, he used the body of the Buddha's Bich-chi to say that their dharma level will make them enlighten the way. -De, in the direction of Dai, Can use the body of Thanh-Van to get free, immediately embody the Thanh-text to say the method of them.What is called Thanh-Van? Thanh-Van is also a La-Han, Duyen -Gao is also a La-Han, belongs to the second yana. Thanh-Literature, "Thanh" is famous, "Literature" is hearing, which means hearing the Buddha's words and being enlightened. What words? Saying the Four Noble Truths, by listening to these words that enlightenment, so called Thanh-Literature. What is the Four Noble Truths? Suffering, Practice, Removal, Dao. The Buddha Shakyamuni first turned the Four-Noble Truths three times to the five monks to hear. At that time, the Kieu Tran Nhu, still not ordained, after being told by the Buddha the dharma, they became ordained as monks. At the garden of Nai Phat told them: "This is Suffering, which is imperative, this is the Tap with the sense of feeling, this is the Dealing with the possibility of being able, this is the Dao having the ability to practice." -This is Suffering has a pressing nature: It is said that this Suffering is strongly pressing, making people unable to bear. Suffering has Suffering, Suffering, Suffering. There are eight things: Suffering, Elder suffering, Suffering, Death suffering, Divorce suffering, Prayer of suffering, Resentment of suffering, Five warmth and suffering. These miserable things force people to turn around, can't breathe, get frustrated all day long. All of these problems are born of suffering, so it is imperative to say that Suffering is compelling. -This is the episode with guilt: Tap is to contain the accumulation group. What accumulates together? Defilements accumulate together. Why are there defilements? Because there is "Suffering." First of all there is suffering. When suffering is unbearable, there is defilement, anger arises. So say this defilement has a sense of feeling, is due to the group that becomes. That is also the word Suffering that has Tap. -This is Killing is possible: Killing is passing away, passing away ignorance and negativity. This blissful thing of passing away is the miraculous result of Nirvana, which can be attained. -This is the Tao that is capable of cultivating: This Way everyone can cultivate, no one says it is impossible to cultivate. Anyone can practice the religion, anyone can witness the physical Nirvana. That was the first turn of the Dharma Wheel. The Buddha was just the embodiment of the sermon of the teaching of the Four Noble Truths for these five monks to hear, followed by the Buddha turning the wheel of dharma for the second time: " This is the Suffering you should know, this is the episode you should pass, this is Kill you should witness, this is the Way you should practice. you must also know it is Suffering. You must also eliminate the Noble Truth, should pray to witness the miraculous results of Nirvana, you should also practice this kind of Bodhi enlightenment. "The Buddha turned the wheel of dharma for the third time:" This is the suffering I know, This is the Volume I have passed, this is the Cessation I have witnessed, this is the Way I have cultivated. "These Suffering I know, This Volume I have eliminated. I already know this Suffering, so I am not fascinated by Suffering. End of afflictions, also no longer practice. This eradication I have attained, I have been joyful true cessation. This way I have finished cultivation. " Those five monks listened to the Buddha's performance saying that the four-fold turn of the Four Noble Truths was completed, immediately enlightened. Human listening to the Buddhist sermon that enlightenment should be called Thanh-Van. Thanh-text and Duyen-senses called Nhi-redundant, also called Tieu-surplus. There is also Mahayana Mahayana. Why is it called Dai, why is it called Tieu? Actually, there is neither Greatness nor Elementary, just because the mind of living beings has Greatness, but only. In the past, our mind was vastly pervasive in the Dharma realm, but we do not know how to use our own existing Tathagata Tathagata. Some people use only a small part, some use the majority, some use the whole. Buddhas can be used totally, because they have already turned to the deity. Bodhisattvas can use a large part, because they have vast wisdom, they can use the plethora of treasures in their own inherent Tathagata Tathagata. The Hinayana row has very little knowledge, so it is used sparingly. Therefore, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara met the predestined relationship of someone who deserves to use the body of the Qing-text for liberation, then appeared the body of Shakyamuni came to tell them the Four Noble Truths. In order to use Pham Vuong's body to get free, he immediately embodied Pham Vuong to talk about them. Pham Vuong is Dai Pham Thien Vuong, Emperor of Heaven Dai Pham. Pham means purity. The king in heaven feels very free. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara also embodied Dai Pham Thien Vuong who came to speak to the Dharma. In order to use the Body of the De Thich to get free, the De Thich body comes to tell them about the law. The Thought (Shakra), which in the Di Da Sutta is called Thich-to-complete-Nhon (Shakra Devanam Indrah), in Taoism it is called Ngoc Hoang Dai De. This Deity is not one but many. We know that there is a heavenly realm called the Three-folds (or Dao Loi). The Deity of the Third Heaven is also the God (God) of some people of faith. In the uncle Lang Nghiem has a sentence: "Male model Human-da-ra-da." Man-da-ra-da is also the name of God. The things in heaven are governed and managed by this Deity, so his power is exceptionally vast, and his power and divine powers are also great; But this person can only be in heaven, and the life of heaven at times ends. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara saw that there is a Deity that has the predestined relationship, and then he incarnates the Shakyamuni to speak to them. Why must transform the body of the De Thich to tell them the Dharma? Because being a fellow, it will be easier to receive promotions. Just like our humanity, no matter what class it is, it is easier for that class to get along. Merchants get acquainted with traders, those who go to school find people to study to get acquainted with, Buddhas learners get acquainted with Buddha learners, gamblers get acquainted with gamblers, bandits get friends with bandits. That is: - "Something of the same kind is easy to match, people with the same work are easy to get used to." Because of these relationships, Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva often appears the body of the same kind as sentient beings, displaying the means that make them easy to transform. But Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara not only used transformative powers to embody the sermon and not necessarily follow the call for help, but even clone to this realm to be a human, also learned the Dharma. new teaching infinite infinite beings. For example, for the students, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara incarnated as a professor who spoke the Buddha-Dharma to them, slowly seduce some scholars once to have feelings towards the Buddha-dharma, give up doubts, then develop the mind of refuge, observe one, two, five, up to the ten important and forty. eight contempt of the Bodhisattva. Then they relied on the method of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara to practice, transformed into a Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, so the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has one more reincarnation. How can we have a thousand hundred reincarnations? That is, you imitate Him, learning according to Him, will turn into His incarnation. As well as saying "Dharma is not legal," is not certain, should not be attached. If your attachments are certain, try asking yourself, are you certain that you may not die? If you can definitely not die, all things are certain. If you say: "It can't be helped, In order to use the body of Great Freedom in Heaven to get free, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara immediately embodies Great Freedom in Heaven to say their law. What is Freedom? Is a pagan celestial ghost. I often tell you that Freedom is God of Christianity and Christianity. The Great Liberty also belongs to this type of religion. Their high self-esteem is inconceivable, they say there is no Buddha, no Dharma, no Sangha, defames the Three Jewels. Heavenly Freedom considers himself the most supreme ultimate in the world. Why is that? Because y is too free, too pleasure! But Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva is no stranger to these beings. When their conditions become mature, the Bodhisattvas also come to explain the Dharma, causing them to turn their delusion into enlightenment and revert to their anti-deities. In order to use Thien Dai General Quan's body to get free, the person who appeared Thien Dai General Quan came to tell them how to decimate them. Thien Dai General Quan here has two meanings, one means being a General in the human world, and another means being an angel in heaven. He enjoyed all the blessings of heaven and moved to the human world to become a General. Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva knows that their conditions are worthy of being transformed, then the Shogun's embodiment speaks the dharma to them to destroy the delusion, enlightenment impermanence, give up all the pleasures of the world, generate spirituality, pray proves the true bliss and supreme. Trying to use the body of the Bhikkhu-sa-mon to get the escape, the Bhikkhu's body came to say the law. Bhikkhu-sa-mon is the name of a person in the Four Great Heavenly Kings, who is also a Thien King in Northern Cau Lo Chau in the North. Each major continent has a Dai Thien Vuong, ie East Thien Vuong, West Thien Vuong, Nam Thien Vuong and North Thien Vuong. To use the body of the Bhikkhu-sa-subject to use the Buddha-dharma, the Bodhisattva of Avalokiteshvara immediately appeared as the King of Heaven to lecture to them. In order to use the emperor's body to gain freedom, the emperor's body came to tell them about their magic. The Emirate is only for the king to manage one country, he only proclaims the king of one country. In order to use the body of the Emirate to be free, then Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva who appeared in the emperor came to tell them the dharma. In order to use the fake Chief's body to gain freedom, the false Chief emanation told them about the law. Why is it called fake Chief? Kinh Lang Nghiem said: "Humans have morality, wisdom, fame, noble lineage, great age, old people like him, young people respect him." Why is he being treated so well by everyone? Because he has a compassionate, equal heart, and treats everyone with a degree of kindness, enthusiastic to help, so everyone recognized as "fake head." If someone deserves to use the body of the fake Chief to gain freedom, the Bodhisattva Quan Avalokiteshvara immediately incarnates the rich man and woman who comes to tell them the Dhamma. In the note Great Bi, Bodhisattva Quan The Am appeared the general staff with a beard of several meters long, sitting upright, majestic, majestic general. In order to use the lay person 's body to get freedom, the lay person emanating law says their law. In order to use the layman's body to be free, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara immediately appeared the body of a lay person who came to speak to him. The lay people means those who are still at home, are also the lay people who believe in following the Buddha to preserve the five precepts and practice the ten virtues. What are the Five Precepts? That is the fifth world: No killing, no stealing, no adultery, no lies, no alcohol. Why is it called the ten good? The ten good are the opposite of the evil one. The evil body means that the body has three evil: killing, theft, adultery. The three evil thoughts are greed, anger, and ignorance. The mouth has four evil: Vong language, speech, evil speech, dual damage. "Speech" is a lie. "Ỷ language" is to say wrong words that are not correct, the professional talk of men and women makes people think about the unrighteous. "Evil speech" is harshly scolding people. "Amused" is a man with two tongues. Why does a person have two blades? - Actually, not that person has two tongues, but a tongue that says two words that are not the same. Going to the other person saying this person is not good, coming to this person saying that the other is not good, using bad deeds to separate the two sides, so it is called two tongues. The four evils of the mouth make up almost half, body and mind each has only three negative karma, and the mouth has four negative karma. The body has three evil, the mind has three evil, the mouth has four evil together with ten evil (ten evil). Contrary to the evil cross is the ten good. The ten virtues are not to kill, not to steal, not to adultery, not to greed, not to aversion, not to ignorance, not to lie, not to speak embellishingly, to not to scold, to speak with two tongues. Not doing evil is doing good. Being a layman on the one hand maintains the five virtuous precepts, on the one hand must support the Three Jewels, support Buddhism, promote Buddhism, and make Buddhism more and more prosperous. That is the responsibility of each lay person. It is the responsibility of the monk to promote Buddhism. In order to use the body of the Priest to be free, the body of the Judge said the law of them. "Judge" means the Prime Minister or other high officials. If there are sentient beings worthy of using the body and authority to gain liberation, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara immediately incarnates the Prime Minister or someone with great authority to come and tell the Dhamma to them. Trying to use the body Ba-la-subject to get rid of the emanation Ba-la-Mon said their law. In order to use the body of Brahmin (Brahmin is a religion in India, specializing in practicing pure virtue), in order to be free, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara will manifest the non-Brahmanic Brahmin. come to speak the Dhamma to those beings, making them understand the Dharma, the practice of medicine, and the future will become a Buddha. In order to use the body of Bhikkhu-stilts, Bhikkhunis, Upri-mamas, Uu-ba-di to get freedom, the incarnations of Bhikkhu-stilts, Bhikkhunis, Upri-stilts, Upruns -di said their method. Bhikkhu-stilts are Sanskrit, Chinese translated into three meanings: 1. Father ma: Whenever a monk is ordained, taking the precepts, he is less likely to be attached to ghosts, thus making ghosts afraid. 2. The mendicant: The monk, above asking for the Dharma of the Buddhas to feed the Dharma body, and under asking for the rice of beings to feed the body. 3. Destroy afflictions: Monastic practice, the Buddha's teaching practice can eliminate ignorance and afflictions, knowledge of Tanh Tanh into Buddha. Monks and nuns are ordained women. Uu-ba-Tac, Uu-she-di is in Sanskrit, translated as Close to male and Female. Being close is close to serving. These lay men and women are often close to the Three Jewels, often go to the temple to worship Buddha, chant prayers, clean, make offerings to the Three Jewels, do merit to pray for blessings. These male and female believers are called Uu-Bà-principle, U-she-di. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara sees beings who have the predestined opportunity to use the body of Bhikkhu, Bhikkhunis, Udumbara, and Uh-ma-di to gain freedom, the Bodhisattva immediately incarnates Bhikkhu -stilts, Bhikkhu-stilts-ni, U-she-rule, Uu-she-di to the sermon for sentient beings. It is worth using the female body of the rulers, laymen, priests, and Brahmins to gain freedom from the emanation of women who say they are legal. The rich man also includes the wife of the man; lay people, princes, Brahmins also have their wives. The head also has female leaders, laypeople also have female laypeople, The Priest also has a female Priest, Brahmin also has a Brahmin woman. If someone deserves to use the female bodies to get free, Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva immediately embodies the female emanation of the rich, layperson, priest, and Brahmin who come to tell them the dharma. In order to use the male and female body to gain freedom, the male and female incarnation will say the law of them. To use means "should," or "should;" hence here it means: "The person's predestined relationship is to understand the Buddha-dharma from his childhood." As Bo-slaps Vi-da in the past, making eternal vows of life after life as a male body. Like the Bodhisattva Long Nu in the past also made an eternal vow to become a female body, not wanting to get married. Men and women are those who, physically, cannot be destroyed. Once the men and women of the opposite sex come into contact, the body is no longer complete. Chinese literature called "Destroy the body," that is, the body is violated, destroyed. Without the act of "breaking the body" the body is complete. In China, there is a kind of meticulousness called "Difference". This pupil wants to practice all must be a complete body that has not been damaged. This elaborate thing, once trained, the sword will not cut, the spear will not pierce. Why does the sword stab the blade not pierce? Because they are "in the practice of a qigong," that is, they depend on a righteous air flow in the body that has never been destroyed; at the same time " human and non-human etc .. to get the freedom, it appears things that body says their legal degrees. "Dragons" have many types: there are dragons in the sky, there are dragons in the sea, and dragons keep treasure. Dragons in the sky will act as protectors in heaven; The dragon in the sea was in the Dragon Palace, the leader of the snakehead shrimp. Dragons hold treasure are dragons led by greedy mind that seek to guard the treasure that people buried in the ground. There is also a dragon specialized in rain. In the past there were many dragons, now usually people rarely see dragons and then say that there are no such animals; in fact, there are many dragons. During the time of the Six Great-Master, there was a dragon specialized in spraying poison gas and smoke. If someone is hit by the poison of this haze, they will get very sick, even incurable and die. The Zen hall of Nam Hoa pagoda is now the lagoon of a poisonous dragon. This beam covers an area of ​​about one acre; no one knows how deep. At that time, in the lagoon there was a dragon. This dragon is not a gentle dragon, but a fierce dragon that specializes in humans. It often makes them sick at Nam Hoa Temple, unable to practice. One day, Luc To Dai-mon came to the lagoon. This dragon showed his body full of that dress. Luc To Dai-monk saw that smiling and said: - Hey, you have the talent of showing a big body, but you can't show a small body. If only a big incarnation, there is not much talent! The dragon, listening to the Six To Đại-monks said that, immediately hid that great body, reappearing the tiny body one inch long swimming in the water. Six To Dai-Master said: - Well, you also have a little bit of courage to turn big and small, but you may not dare to enter the bowl of the monk! The dragon in the water heard that, and "took one" jumped right into the Luc To's bowl. Great-Master said: -A, this is you voluntarily come, but cannot get out! The dragon used up all of its might to jump out, but there was no way it could jump out. At that time, the new Master said: -You do not struggle for anything! Do you know why you must carry dragons in this life? In the past, you were a practitioner, also had good root, studied Buddhism-Dharma, but because you are too angry, too angry, so this life will fall into the body of a dragon. Do not let yourself have the courage to be big or small. Hey! You are now in my bowl, can you come out? The Dragon heard those words from Luc To, expressed his submission, and no longer intended to jump out; At that time, Luc To gave lectures to him. After listening to the dharma clearly, the dragon awoke and escaped from being a dragon. The dragon's body was kept for a long time at Nam Hoa pagoda. Later, because of the war fire, it was lost. It was a part of the predestined relationship with Luc To Dai-monk who surrendered to the poisonous dragon at Nam Hoa pagoda. In China during the Tang dynasty, Wei Trung was a Prime Minister in the human world, but also became a mandarin in heaven. At that time, the dragon Tieu Bach Long made rain in the wrong orders. Ngoc Hoang said that the rain was only one inch, but it rained up to one meter, so many rice fields were flooded. So that was breaking the law, Ngoc Hoang then sent Wei Trung to kill the little dragon. Knowing this news, the little dragon ran to the dream of King Duong Thai Tong, saying: "Tomorrow, please save my life. Your Majesty is a dragon, I am also a dragon, so please help Your Majesty save my tiny dragon's life." this. " The king said: "We are all like dragons, then we are brothers. When you have work I have to help you. So what can I do to help you? "-I violated the law of heaven, because it rained on the wrong order, tomorrow I will be charged with guillotine, but the one who slashed me is Prime Minister Wei Trung. Tomorrow if Your Majesty Your Majesty He wouldn't let him do anything, he couldn't kill me -That's easy! I am the king, he is my mandarin, he must obey my commands. The next day, Duong Thai Tong asked Wei Trung to come and play chess. The king thought: "He played chess with me, could not leave me, definitely could not go and slash that little dragon." The flag, beating until noon, Wei Trung suddenly fell asleep. Duong Thai Tong was very happy, thinking: "If he's already asleep, he definitely can't go and slash that little dragon, I don't have to worry." Any doubt, when Wei Trung slept was when his consciousness left, he took the Thuong Phuong sword to kill the small dragon. A moment later Wei Trung resumed his game with Duong Thai Tong. Only past time, the new game ended. Duong Thai Tong thought to himself: "The little dragon begged me, just past noon, Wei Trung could not kill him. Thus, I have saved my brother, have I made true merit? must be small. " Anyway, at night, the small dragon asked for his life: -He told us that we were brothers, and wanted to save me, but why did Your Majesty let His servants kill me? It is no different than Your Majesty killing me. Then Your Majesty must pay my life. Duong Thai Tong woke up, knowing that the small dragon came to demand his life, afraid to sweat. The next day brought this to a discussion with military engineer Tu Mau Cong. Tu Mau Cong said: -Nothing! Here we have two people who can prevent it, namely, Tan Quynh and Kinh Duc. His Majesty sent them to guard the back door when that little dragon did not dare come again. Tan Quynh is a golden-faced general, while Kinh Duc is a black-faced general. His black was blacker than tar, so black that it glowed. Using these two to hold the door, as expected the little dragon that night did not dare come again. But if every night they keep these two people guarding the door and they are the general of the country, it is too hard. At that time, when I drew a picture of these two people stuck on the door to guard the door for Duong Thai Tong, that little dragon never dared to come. Therefore, Chinese people, when Tet comes, also bring pictures of Qin Quynh and Kinh Duc on the front door to love the devil and dare not come to harass. The reincarnation of a dragon as a dragon is due to "inheriting the precepts." Practicing Mahayana Buddhism is very useful, Studying Buddhism very well, but not strictly observing the precepts. Nhon because "inherited," so was transformed by divine powers; because of "postponement" should fall down as animals. "Da-Xa" also known as Duoc-Xa, are all Sanskrit (Yakshas), meaning "Disabled" because they move very fast, even rockets made by modern science cannot catch up. This demon can go anywhere they want to go in one thought. "Gandharvas" mound (Gandharvas) translates as Huong God, because they use incense as food and the body exudes a scent. Again translated as Nhac Than, the god plays music for Ngoc De, the head wears an octagonal hat, the hand holds the enemy tube, the body is red, hair emits light. Tay Vuc calls the singer Càn-thát-Bà. "A-tu-la" is Sanskrit (Asura), translated as "Phi heaven," for they have heavenly blessings but do not have godly virtue, like heaven and not heaven. A-tu-la also translates as "Extremely important," because their face is very ugly, not being in the A-tu-la realm is called A-tu-la, but the animal world in the sixteen There are also many animals that are A-tu-la reincarnating, such as dogs, horses, cows ..., especially horses, A-tu-la is very heavy. China has a saying: "The horse harms the herd," refers to the horse in the herd, if you do not kick one, you will also bite the other, making the whole herd of horses not peaceful. For his fellow man, that horse is harmful, so it is called "the horse of the flock." That is also an A-tu-la. The most obvious is the cow, they are truly A-tu-la. There are two horns on a cow's head, do you know what it is going to do? It intends to fight. Because in the past when I was doing A-tu-la, I often wore a helmet on my head, I wore armor, so when I was born as a cow, I could not forget A-tu-la, two horns were prepared on the head to fight with people. Not only the cow is A-tu-la, the fighting chicken is also A-tu-la turned into. Fighting chickens whenever they meet, they will kick immediately. Not only the fighting cock is A-tu-la, but there is a black cricket that loves to fight. When two children meet, they will definitely fight until one dies. In China during the Song Dynasty, the game of fighting crickets to eat money was very popular. Whenever someone's cricket is kicked to death, that person loses money. In addition, the types such as snakes, mice, cats ..., animals that like to fight, have an aggressive nature are all A-tu-la. Beings reincarnated as A-tu-la, the appearance is very ugly, not righteous at all! It can be a pig-long snout, elephant-long nose, pointed beak, upturned teeth, pig's mouth, elephant's nose, bull's eye, rat's ears; or a human body with a pig head, or a human body with a bull's head, or a human body with a horse's head or a tiger's head, is very vicious. A-tu-la male appearance is very ugly, but the A-tu-la female face is very beautiful. A-tu-la can say that anyone who sees it will love it. So God De Thich in the celestial world of Luc Duc once saw that A-tu-la was so beautiful that she fell in love and proposed. Tu-la king also consented and brought his daughter to marry the emperor. One day, De Thich was very happy because he was able to invite additional music to eat with the best food in heaven. At the end of the meal, when Tu-la Vuong was about to return, Ngoc De wanted to show his respect by forming two ranks of all the divine soldiers, the divine generals to send off. But Tu-la king saw, angry in his heart unhappy, thinking: "Ah, you used the divine military general to scare me? This guy!" Tu-la king was angry in his heart, But Ngoc De is still indifferent. In the heavens, there is a fairy who often preaches, because the Jade Emperor likes to study morality, so every day he comes to the place where that fairy is listening. When the Jade Emperor went to hear the Dhamma like that, the Tu-la female at home arose a doubt, thinking: "He is absent every day, so don't go anywhere? In general, he must go to work. I must go find a girl here! " Waiting when the emperor returned, Tu-la female asked: - What do you usually do when you are away from home? Is it looking for another silhouette, another mistress? So if you do not stay home to wait for me? - No, it is not! I went to the Sage to listen to the dharma. But Tu-la women do not believe in any way, so they use underground magic to search the place of the Deity to come. Waiting for the Deity to finish getting into the treasure car, she also got into the car with hidden magic. When she came to the sermon De Thich to get off the bus, she also got off the bus. So Like seeing that, immediately asked: - Why are you here? -I came to investigate whether he was telling the truth or not. No matter what you say, I don't believe it! De Thich heard that he was angry, got bloody from his staff, and beat his wife with a stick. The female Tu-la immediately burst into tears. Any doubt that cry will make the virtue of the noble virtue disappear, can no longer speak the dharma. Up to now, this fairy has never heard the voice of a woman, but now hears the cry of the female Tu-la too sweet, stirring up her lustful interest, losing all her karma, so she cannot continue to lecture. again. That happened, making Ngoc De more angry, even more blaming his wife. Tu-la Nu was also angry, returning to tell her father: "This Mr. De Like is really not organized at all, A week is forty miles, a week is sixty miles, a week is eighty miles. Three hundred do-weeks here is three hundred bucks, it makes up 24,000 (twenty-four thousand miles.) His wings swung up and the sea water split into two, revealing which dragon he took. That dragon eats meat. Just like that, the descendants of the dragon species were almost eaten. The dragon king had no choice but to pray for help with the Buddha. Buddha brought his ca-sa to cover the Dragon King and said: "Doing like this, like this ...." Dragon king after returning to the Long Palace, tore his robe into pieces, tied each dragon one piece. In doing so, the golden-winged eagle could not eat the dragon's flesh. Because the Buddha's Ca-sa is extremely useful, it can help dragons out of danger. It was then that the golden-winged eagle went to find the Buddha and said: "Of course it is good for you to save the dragons. but starving your bird family to death! We only eat dragon meat, but now we cannot eat dragon meat anymore, what should we do? "Then the Buddha gave the sermon and gave the five precepts to the eagle. The bird said:" You can not kill, but nothing is certain to starve! "Buddha said:" You will not starve to death. From now on, every day at noon, when my disciple eats rice, he will feed him. "So later, when having lunch, the Buddhists leave home before reciting the mantra to make offerings and then give some rice to make. From then on, the eagle takes up the five precepts to no longer kill, and even acts as a Buddhist protector, that is, one of the eight sets of demons or gods. In Buddhism, the time of eating is different: gods eat early in the morning, Buddha eat at midday, animals eat after noon, the devil eats in the evening Until now, the ghoul sword did not wake up. When it sees us eating, it wants to eat too. Once we see us eating, waving the chopsticks, it will rush. But the food brought to the mouth turned into fire so it couldn't be eaten. That is because their karma is too heavy. But the devil thinks that it is because people use magic to make the food turn into fire and not feed it, so it can cause anger to beat people, or make people sick. So the monk should not eat dinner in order to eat the devil's meal. The morning is the time of the gods, if the early morning monk has some porridge, or baked goods, then leave a little food for the gods or the demons. This rakshasa-model Demon Tu specializes in infant meat-eating before. Why is it called Demon Tu-mother? Because it has a thousand children. He took a thousand of them to places where they stole their children to eat. Any family who has a newborn baby will immediately be eaten by them. By doing this, there are many families with no children. At that time, someone came to pray to the Buddha, asking why most of the children were missing. So what to do? Buddha knew that the children were all captured and eaten by the demons of the Mother-Mother. One day the Buddha took the smallest demon among those thousands of small demons to put it in a bowl. Demon Tzu-mother came home to find her youngest child, and ran around looking for him, finally finding the Buddha. Hearing the sound of his child crying in the bowl, the Demon Tu-Mau rushed to the side of the bowl to find a way to open the lid to save his child. But the lid of the bowl was too heavy to not bear, he ran back to lead the remaining 999 small demons, assembled together to lift the lid of the bowl, but it could not be done, and could not move at all. At that time, the Demon Tzu Chi could confess to Buddha: - Why did you arrest my child, put him in a bowl and won't pay me back? Buddha asked: How many children do you have? - There are a thousand. - Ah! You have a thousand children, now only lose one mah why so precious? - Even if I only lost one, but for me it is not possible. - Then how about you force humans to eat meat? - It's not like I want to eat kids! But there was nothing to eat, if I didn't steal the kids to eat, all a thousand of them would starve to death. - From now on, you should not steal their children to eat meat. You should take refuge in the Three Jewels, maintain the five precepts, should not kill! You think, you have so many children, but one can't even stand it. I just put it in the bowl only, and you still suffer like that! But how many children in the world are you taking to eat, their parents not suffer? You shouldn't be so selfish! At that time, the demon Tu-mother listened to the Buddha's words, took refuge in the Three Jewels, and maintained the five precepts. The Buddha immediately told his disciples to eat seven grains of rice or some food for the Demon Tu-mother when eating. So when we leave the rice, we can read the verse: Golden Eagle, Minerals, Demons, Demons, mother, Cam-Giant are full. Nectar is for sweet food like nectar, no matter how many demons are full of them. "Khẩn-na-la" (Kinnaras), is one of eight sets of demons, this person is also the music god of Ngoc De. On the head of Khan-na-la grew a horn, so it was also called the Nghien Spirit. "Ma-ma-la-Gia" mound (Mahogaras) is a large serpent, also known as Earth Dragon, is also a very cruel type. In Guangdong, China, people really like to eat custard-apple meat. This serpent is as fat as a domestic pig, but sometimes it also eats human flesh; because the person eats it, it also eats people. King Luong Vo De has a wife named Hy Thi. The king is a Buddhist follower, worshiping the Three Jewels, but his wife, on the contrary, does not respect the Buddha Dharma. Due to her disrespect for the Three Jewels, after her death she was decapitated so that a large python could speak human voices. At that time, she returned and asked for the super-giving Luong Vo De. "Do you know who I am?" She said. I am Hy Thi, your wife here. Because she did not respect the Three Jewels, she died and had to be fallen as a snake. Luong Vo De heard that, then invited Chi Cong Zen master to do a super ceremony for her. Nguyen Chi Cong Zen master was the first person when she was born, Ms. Hy Thi opposed the most. After being decapitated, she came before Mr. Chi Cong to pay homage. At that time, Mr. Chi Cong composed the series Luong Hoang Sam. "Luong Hoang" is Luong Vo De, "Sam" is repentance, which means that because of Luong Vo De, this prostration is made to insist Ms. Hy Thi, the wife of the king. Thanks to this merit of bowing to Luong Hoang Sam, the wife of Luong Vo De was freed from the body of a great snake and was born into heaven. When the Buddha was in the world, Ma-ma-la-old took refuge in the Three Jewels, so it was also considered a Dharma protector of Buddhism. "Human and inhuman." Humanity is our humanity, non-human is only for all living beings. Bodhisattva Bodhisattva, if you see any beings worth using the body of Heavenly Dragon to escape, immediately appears the body of the dragon, or the body of Da-rub, La-kill ... and all non-human beings to theory. legal them. Using the body of Acceptance Kim Cang to be free, immediately embodied the god Acceptance Kim Cang said their law. This Kim Cang god is the guardian god of Buddhism. Vajrapani's background is like this: A long time ago there was a King Zhuan Wheel. He has a thousand children. Why can a wife give birth to a thousand children like that? Because she lived so long, giving birth to a thousand children is nothing much! But he felt not enough, so he married another wife, this second wife gave birth to two children, in total he has 1002 children. All of them unanimously vowed. One thousand children of the previous wife vowed: - We practice, in the future, if we are successful, we will become a Buddha one by one, not to turn the Wheel of the Holy King. We unanimously draw lots. Shakyamuni Buddha was the number 4 drawn, so he was the fourth Buddha. In the future, the fifth, sixth to the thousandth Buddhas would be born in this Hien life. One thousand brothers all took a vow to become a Buddha, and the son of his step-wife also took the vow. How do we pray? One person volunteered: - Regardless of who becomes a Buddha when one thousand brothers become Buddha, I would like to be the first person to invite him to lecture and respectfully make offerings to the Three Jewels. And the other vows: - I take a vow to be a protector, when each of my brothers becomes Buddha I will protect him, the protector for him. So he became a Vajrapani Dharma, in his hand often holding a treasure chest to protect Buddhism. Whenever the Buddha was born, he immediately came to support the Buddha-Dharma. And the other is Dai Pham Thien Vuong, every time a Buddha is born, he is the first person to request the Buddha to lecture. This Endless Italy! This Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva accomplishes such merits, using bodies, wandering through the realms of water to free sentient beings. Therefore, you should make one-pointed offerings to Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. This Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva often proclaims fearlessness in all cases of fear and emergency. So in this Ta-she world all call Him the Fearless Fellow. After the Buddha said the incarnations of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, he again said: "Hey, Endless Italy! The Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has accomplished the merits mentioned above. each country to free all sentient beings. Due to such conditions, your sentient beings should make one-pointed offering to the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, "there should be no dual mind. If there are two hearts, there is doubt. "One-heartedness" is only one belief. If you have two minds, there is no induction, no merit. That's why we say, "You should make one-pointed offering to the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara." Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva Ma-ha-slapping is a great Bodhisattva who will grant fearlessness if you are in a situation of fear of an emergency, making you no longer afraid. That is why in the world of Ta Ba called Him "Fearless Bodhisattva." Endless Bodhisattva's will tell the Buddha: "White Buddha, you should now make offerings to the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara." After saying that, he took off the string of peanut jewels on his neck, worth a hundred thousand taels of gold to make an offering and said: "Dummy, please accept the dharma. Hearing the Buddha's teaching: "All sentient beings should one-pointedly recite the mind, offering one-pointedly to the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara," so the Endless Bodhisattva also wants to make offerings to the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. to the Buddha: "Bach World Religion! Now I want to make offerings to Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has such great merit, unbelievable power, so even though I have become a Bodhisattva, I also want to go to the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara to cultivate merit, you should make offerings to the Bodhisattva Quan The Am. " Having said that, The Endless Italian Bodhisattva untied the string of the precious stray he was wearing from his neck, making an offering to the Bodhisattva of Avalokiteshvara without thinking. Lost brother is a very valuable treasure. This treasure is empty inside that can be stuffed into objects, ancient people used to make jewelry, threaded into a string. This jade chain value bonds. How much is it worth? Worth a hundred thousand taels of gold, now take off to make offerings to Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. The Endless Bodhisattva again said: - Dear false, please accept this precious gift of lost dharma. "Human fake" means only people who are kind and have virtue, Bo-slaps with Bo-slaps call each other as Human fake. The precious golden brotherhood belongs to talent, why is it called Dharma in the Endless Bodhisattva Sutta? There are three types of almsgiving: giftedness, giving and fearless giving. While the Endless Italian Bodhisattva made offerings to Avalokiteshvara, in mind, not for this string of stray brothers to be a very valuable thing, but rather that they want to give their favorite things to sincerely offer to Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. But why does the literature say "worth a hundred thousand taels of gold?" This sentence is false Religious A-nan when he added more Buddhist scriptures. At that time, the Endless Bodhisattva Italy did not talk about value more or less. Bodhisattvas only use their true mind to make offerings to Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. Both sides do not have the concept of "wealth," so it belongs to the dharma. Although it is a talent, it also turns into a legal experiment. This is "using mind mind", not paying attention to objects valued by money. So he asked the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara to accept this offering as a chain of treasures he strayed. At that time, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara refused to accept it. The Endless Italian Bodhisattva told Guanyin Bodhisattva: "False people, Please have mercy on us to accept this rosary. "The Endless Bodhisattva brings the precious rosary chain to the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, but the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara refused to accept it. Because Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is under the court of Shakyamuni Buddha, came to hear the dharma at this Dharma Assembly, Avalokiteshvara has not been promised by the Buddha, so he refuses to accept the offering. Moreover, the Bodhisattva does not have greed, unlike the sublime phu, thinks: - "Ah, this famous precious peanut chain, someone gave it to you, not fast e slow down! If people change their mind, don't make offerings anymore, what should we do? "Because they don't have that mentality, they are not afraid that people will not make offerings. In their mind, there are actually no givers or givers; nor there is a receiver, what is received. Whether making offerings or not making offerings to them is the same. By the way, the Endless Bodhisattva also has merit. But Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva himself refused to accept that part of the offering, then the Endless Bodhisattva was also a little worried! He is not like some people who do not really want to make offerings: "If you don't want to accept it, then I won't offer it either. Let me bring it back." So the Endless Italian Bodhisattva once again requested Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara: "Fake man! Please have mercy on our behalf and receive this stray brother." This sentence means: "Fake man! Bodhisattva great compassion! You should have mercy on my behalf! Endless Mercy I mean and these quartet. I offer you this precious rosary string. It is because of the blessings of oneself, but for the sake of these four disciples and all living beings. I act on behalf of beings to make offerings to him, so please have mercy on us and accept this rosary chain. "" Four of them "means Bhikkhus, Bhikkhunis, Upriyans- "We" are for all sentient beings. At that time Buddha told the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara: "You should have mercy on this Endless Bodhisattva and the four heavenly beings, dragons, -xoa, can-thát-woman, a-tu-la, ca-la-la, urgent-na-la, ma-ma-la-old, human and non-human ... that receive this chain of stray brothers. "The Endless Bodhisattva will definitely want to make an offering to Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara that Guanyin Bodhisattva is determined to refuse to accept, saying:" Ah! Your offering is so precious that I don't dare accept it. I don't have any morality to deserve His faith. Please keep it! ”The Endless Bodhisattva, hearing Guanyin Bodhisattva saying that, became more worried, even bowed, begged Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. Just like that, one person does not accept offerings, another wants to make offerings, both sides persist in their will. At that time, the Buddha Shakyamuni reconciled. The new Buddha looked at the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, smiling and said: "Hey, you should have pity on the Endless Bodhisattva and the four groups of disciples, not only these four disciples, but also heaven, dragons, and yakaya. , càn-thát-grandmother, as-tu-la, ca-lau-la, urgent-na-la, ma-ma-la-old, human and non-human ... you should have mercy on all sentient beings. Then accept this offering! It is a kind of almsgiving that comes out of your very sincere sincerity, you should not reject this idea perfectly! " Immediately the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara pity the four of them, along with the heavens, dragons, human beings, and inhuman ... to receive the string of straying and divide it into two parts: One offering to Shakyamuni Buddha, one part offering to the tower of Da Bao Buddha. This Endless Italy! Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has the power of freedom to walk around Ta Ba realm like that! At that time the Bodhisattva Endless Italy used a verse to ask the Buddha. At that moment, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara saw Buddha Shakyamuni stand out to reconcile, he immediately listened to the Buddha's words, had pity on the four disciples and the bowls of heaven, the dragon ..., received the treasure chain he lost. But saying that receiving is just receiving is like that, but then he turned to donate to the Buddha, bringing the sequence of lost brothers into two parts. See Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, He is truly a Bodhisattva, such great value objects that he also does not want to keep, also gives part of an offering to Shakyamuni Buddha, a part to give to the Buddha. Bao. The presence of this Buddha, Da Bao Buddha, in countless eons of the past, has become a Buddha, and once vowed: "No matter who becomes a Buddha, after all, I must teach the Sutras of the United States. Waiting for the time to teach the Sutras of the United States, I made my vow to rise from the ground up to a tower of the Buddha of Buddha that appears in nothingness to prove to all beings that this Suttas is very wonderful, very complete and very beautiful. "So when Shakyamuni became a Buddha, first of all he said that the Tripitaka Buddhism, the Noble Path, the Great Eightfold Path, the Buddha Da Bao also never appeared. Arriving at the Phap Hoa assembly, while teaching this sutra, Buddha Da Bao immediately jumped up from the ground to the tower of Da Bao Buddha to prove that Buddha was speaking the Sutras of the United States. Buddha Shakyamuni said: "This Endless Italy! This Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva has miraculous powers, self-contained divine power as I said before, so all beings should make offerings, respectfully and confess His name. This Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva walks around the world of Ta Ba in order to save all sentient beings. "After Shakyamuni Buddha said that, the Endless Bodhisattva again used a shelf to ask the Buddha. The former is the form of the prose (prose), there is a very clear speech, and the other is not clear, so use the shelf to repeat it again.The shelf is like all kinds of poems from Chinese poetry. can be certain way, either a six-word sentence, a seven-word sentence, or a five-word sentence, a four-word sentence ... is not required, but must have a certain number of words. This verse was not translated by Cù-ma-la-ten. Later, another Master saw that these verses have the same meaning as the previous one, so they were added twenty years after the second Noble Phantasm of the Sutras. So Ton enough good generals I would like to ask Buddhists what are the conditions The name is Quan Thế Am? The Endless Bodhisattva said, "The Blessed One is full of good forms! Now I ask again about the Bodhisattva of Avalokiteshvara, what is the condition of the Buddha called Quan Avalokitesvara?" Because the Buddha's appearance is very complete, full of thirty-two good forms, eighty beauty, so called the Buddha is full of good forms, that is completely, neither lacking nor redundant. Again can also be understood as blessed enough, sufficiently wise, is Bisexual respect. But, here it is talking about the thirty-two good forms and the eighty beauty of Buddha that are unthinkable wonderful forms. Full rank of good generals Endless Answer: He listened to the conduct of Quan Yin Khue meeting all places. Since the Italian Endless Bodhisattva uses a shelf to ask the Buddha, the Buddha also uses the shelf to answer the question of the Italian Endless Bodhisattva: "Hey, Endless Italy! Do you know the things and conditions that Bodhisattva Guan Yin has done? You should pay attention, I will preach to you. The Bodhisattva uses skillful means of contemplating the basis of teaching, depending on the conditions to say the dharma, and adapting to medicine. "The base of the bean spear is to observe how the base of beings is born, like what, worth mentioning. What dhammas, just like the previous one, said: "It is worth using the Buddha body to get freedom immediately, the Buddha body says the Dharma to save them. In order to use the Body of the Deity to be free from the instant emanation of the Deity's body, he comes to speak the Dhamma to help them .... "That is called the skillful adaptation of places. Regardless of the identity, He also uses skillful methods. This means to degree them. Is that method certain? Not certain! The Vajra Sutra says: "This Dharma is equal, there is no high or low, not certain." As a Magician who wants to teach sentient beings, he must also know a lot of worldly ethics and dharma so that whenever he meets any kind of person, he should say it appropriately. For example, meeting a trader, you can say: "Ah hey! Are you doing good business now? Recently the market's momentum is very strong!" Or meet a worker and say, "You worked so hard! Are you free today?" Have to use the worker's ethics to tell him. He immediately heard what he thought happily: "Well, there are also people who know that I'm very hard, very busy!" After that, tell them the Buddha-Dharma, they can feel: "Ah yes! It turns out that the Buddha-Dharma is like that." Meet someone who goes to school, then ask: "Which board do you study? Science? Chemistry or Literature ...?" Today, a group of students came to the temple and listened to Buddhist teachings, After hearing that, they are all very excited, for the Buddha-dharma is beginning to have an impression. In their minds there is a word "Buddha." This word "Buddha" will imprint on your mind every day more and more, in the future you will also become a Buddha. That is the skillful application of places, disease for medicine, depending on the conditions to say the law. It is also called: The skillful means of transmitting sentient beings, Wrong takes the earth to become the Buddha. "Bring all the mundane things in the world into the Buddha. May be as wide as the sea. Many lives do not think of Serving. many thousands of Buddha's big and pure vows, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, when he was not a Buddha, made a great great compassion vow, how large is this vow? As deep as the sea. disrespectful past life, creating any thoughtful merit, emitting any thoughtful thought force, so Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva in every aspect is an inconceivable wonder. He used to worship many thousands of Buddha's memories, not only thousand but also more than ten thousand, even though there are only thousand of them in the text. Because of these great compassionate vows, the realm of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva is unpredictably high. Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva made very pure vows. What is chastity prayer? Chastity is to have no selfish, selfish ideas but is impartial greatness. He is for sentient beings to aspire, entirely out of true compassion, out of love for true beings. I because the old man said Hearing the name and seeing the body, Mind and mind, we will not forget the ability to destroy the suffering of the Friends. The Buddha said, "Now I briefly tell you about the merits of this Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva to you." Must be someone with good root can hear the name of this Bodhisattva. If the person does not have a good root, the name of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara could not be heard, let alone meet his body. Talking about "seeing the body" is not necessarily seeing the body of Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara, but being able to see the figure of this Bodhisattva. The drawing is either covered with earth, or carved with wood or porcelain, up to gold, silver, copper or cast iron; seeing these images is like seeing His body. We just need to pay attention to that place, recite the concept of not forgetting the name of Bodhisattva of Avalokiteshvara, not allow confusion to let that precious time pass to waste. What is the use of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva's use? All the suffering of beings can be eliminated. "Friends" is called collectively for Education-world-property, Sac-world-property and No-color-world-property, all twenty-five friends. Realms of existence here is said to be the twenty-five realms in the Three Realms. There are verses about the twenty-five friends as follows: "Four continents (4), four evil ways (4) Pham Vuong (1), Six senses of heaven (6) Utopia (1), year of Na-function (5) Four Meditation, four Khong Thien (4) "Suppose that the birth of harm The bucket drops the big fire. Thanks to the power of reciting Quan Yin, the fire is turned into a pond. Suppose someone wants to harm, like doing business with you, going up the mountain with you. When going through the abyss of many staff, he wants to withdraw your capital, and then creates a mind of harm, pushing you to fall into the abyss. At that time, you just need to sincerely confess: "Namo Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva", you will be safe. Even if the other person drops you in a fire pit, that pit of fire will turn into a pond of water. You don't need to use any other methods, you don't have to chant anything, just one-pointedly reciting the title of Bodhisattva Guanyin, there will be touch, will be rescued by an invisible power, this feeling is impossible. So wherever we are, we recite Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, the future will be protected by the Bodhisattva. That sensing realm is really impossible to say. Or drifting in the sea. Demons, dragons, fish Thanks to the power of reciting Quan Yin Waves cannot sink. Drifting is floating floating along the water. If it was shallow or standing water was no problem, people would easily get ashore. But if drifting in the middle of the sea, looking out in a fog and not knowing where the shore is, it is very dangerous. In the sea there are often poisonous dragons, also the demons Lazarus, and sharks eat people, so it is very dangerous. When you have these accidents, If you can recite the name Guanyin Bodhisattva, no matter how big the wave is, you will not be drowned, but suddenly you will be taken ashore, or you will spontaneously drift into shallow water, or meet be rescued by another boat. These things are present by Bodhisattva Quan The Am Thi to save water. Just like the fire disaster before, if you don't know the concept of Avalokiteshvara, it will be very dangerous. Speaking of which, remembering when I was in Hong Kong, I had an evil refuge. How ugly? His name is Truong Ngoc Giai, he has harmed people. His house opened a pharmacy, so many words were told. However, the money earned is from harming people. After Japan surrendered, because the country had just experienced the smoke and fire of war, infectious diseases spread, at that time there was plague everywhere in mainland China. At that time, Truong Ngoc Giai together with a very rich man contributed capital to trade. The two of them took a boat to go abroad to buy medicine to bring back to Hong Kong for resale. On the way back, the boat reached the open sea, he immediately pushed his friend into the sea. Because he did not know how to recite the Bodhisattva Guanyin, he drowned. So Truong Ngoc Giai alone took up the whole amount of medicine capital. When he returned to Hong Kong, he sold a lot of money. He even fabricated fake drugs for sale, so he added more wealth. How is it after the fortune? Roughly reported injustice, he had cancer. At that time in Hong Kong there were six very good physicians, who assured him that within a hundred days he would die. So he hurriedly published a newspaper looking for someone to save his life, Promising if anyone can eradicate cancer, he volunteered to donate two hundred thousand US dollars to repay. Back then, the two hundred thousand dollars in Hong Kong were very valuable, but no one came to show him how to save his life. Then he went to the temple to worship the Buddha. One day, he came to Tay Lac Vien to ask me how can I cure my illness? I told him: "To get rid of this disease, you have to do many good deeds, make offerings to the Three Jewels, cultivate merit. First you must take refuge in the Three Jewels, in such a way you will be able to get better from sickness!" That is why he took refuge with me on September 18 of that lunar year. After he took refuge, I advised him to dedicate himself to good deeds. At that time, there were more than two or three thousand people who came from China for refugees to Hong Kong, but most of these monks and nuns were not wearing enough clothes. There is also no place to take refuge. That is why I asked him to offer each monk or nun a bundle of cloth (sew two clothes) and twenty Hong Kong coins, he was satisfied with the request. But at that time in Hong Kong there were many teachers, especially the old magus, who heard that Truong Ngoc Giai had taken refuge with me, and all of his divine powers exuded. Magic show like? This one sought friends, the other thanks to his relatives, he was romantically involved with Truong Ngoc Giai, told him to go to the temple to do merit. These old Mages are very famous people, they are powerful people in Buddhism, so they get along with Truong Ngoc Giai. Therefore, Truong Ngoc Giai sometimes went to do merit in this temple, other times did merit in another temple, and then the twenty dong that I called to make offerings to each of the Masters in Mainland China did not make enough offerings. He offered only five copper and a stack of medium fabrics. Since I told the monks and nuns that I would offer twenty dong each, what should I do now with only five? In the end I had to secretly borrow money, not to let others know. The loan was added with five dong of Truong Ngoc Giai for the full twenty. Truong Ngoc Giai did not keep his promise because of being seduced by those old wizards. That money was originally planned to be donated to monks and nuns, but used for other things; so I don't blame him either, it's over. Before, the doctors all guessed he lived no more than a hundred days, now more than a hundred days he is still alive, until then the Venerable monks seduced the predestined affliction and said: -A! That is the result we worship for you! The old Sorcerer said: " That is because we sincerely chant for you! "Another magician said:" Ah! We pray every day for you in front of the Buddha! "Every one of the magi has merit! At that time I did not have any merits, I did not tell him anything. Over six years. Truong Ngoc Trai is still not dead, at that time I was building Tu Hung Pagoda in Dai Du Mountain, Hong Kong This temple roughly could accommodate more than two hundred people Listening to me building the temple, as a disciple, He sent someone to bring some money to me for the temple building, I did not pay attention to it, did not open it, took it out the door, and said to him: - "Is this money not legitimate? I do not need these money, please take them back to him! "The servant brought the money back, which scared Truong Ngoc Giai! He asked an old Sorcerer to lure the former predestined affinity named Định Tây to beg me and give the money. I said: "Now the temple construction is finished, I don't need money anymore. He has money, can do other deeds. There are so many temples, how many wizards, he likes to do. Do whatever you want. " The old Sorcerer was not convenient to continue talking, so he returned. Two years later, in January, I announced to everyone: "Truong Ngoc Giai has taken refuge with me for eight years, I have been waiting for him to fulfill his promise, because he devote himself to offering two hundred thousand US dollars. To build a temple that hasn't been implemented until now. I can't wait anymore, after that, there will be any problems with Truong Ngoc Giai, I don't know. " After saying that, less than half a year, his cancer returned. When he was about to die, he sent someone to beg me. Because he went to another temple to worship, making the Buddhas are not very effective, he has no inspiration, so he came to me. But I also don't know, I said I said I no longer know anything about him. Then a few days later he died. Strangely, the magician Dinh Tay, who seduced him from before, also contracted cancer and died after being sick for more than a year. There was also a layperson who followed the old Master who linked Truong Ngoc Giai with Magician Dinh Tay, who also got cancer and died. So it can be said that they are three people together, live together, and die of the same disease. Why did Truong Ngoc Giai die like that? Because he pushed his friend fell into the ocean drowned. When he lived, he did not know how to recite the Bodhisattva Quan The Am. Surely, after death, he made an injustice to report, causing Truong Ngoc Giai to be born with cancer. Truong Ngoc Giai should have taken refuge in the Three Jewels, if he had true faith, he wouldn't have to die. Because of his unwavering faith, even if he did not die after taking refuge a hundred days, he must die eight years later. Or at the top of Tu Di Was knocked down by people Thanks to the power of reciting Quan Yin As the sun of the sun. Tu Di is Sanskrit, translated as Mount Dieu Cao, is the largest mountain in the universe. Peak Tu Di here, is not necessarily just the top of Mount Tu Di, but is a very high place. It means that if you are on a towering peak, as high as Mount Tu Di, and are knocked down by people, at that moment, if you can recite Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva it will be like the sun in the air , that is, the sun in the middle of nowhere, cannot be damaged. It's not just saying that in high mountains you will fall to death, but it is also possible that someone tells you to climb to the top of the ladder, Wait for you to get to the top, they will chop down the ladder. Now, if you want to go up, you can't do it. that is called ascending, descending not descending, the situation is very dangerous. Likewise, assuming everyone respects you, praises you to the extreme, and then disrespects you, as if falling down from the top of Mount Tu Di. At that time, if you can recite Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, there will be no defilements, just like the sun in the middle of nowhere shines for miles, without any defilements, but rather Thai, very determined, praise and praise are not mind. This is another meaning of the sentence "Like the sun in the air." Or being chased by evil people Falling down the diamond mountain Thanks to the power of reciting Quan Yin No hair loss. How are the wicked? It is a person who does not know morality, specializes in killing, burning houses. Their argument is: "Yours is mine, mine is mine too. Your money is mine, mine is mine again." Do you consider it ethical? Those wicked people have power without justice. They only use force to bully others, regardless of justice. "Chasing" is where you run, they follow you there, always watching you. Suppose you were chased by such wicked people, and for a moment of carelessness, inattention, you fell into the deep abyss of the vajra mountain. If you do not recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, you will fall into the ravine, you will definitely lose your life, even the flesh and bones are shattered, all the flesh and bones are crushed like bran, the body will not be found. both. But if you can recite Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, even a feather will not be lost. Do you think it's strange? The diamond mountain represents the high wall of many staff, exceptionally hard, as solid as a diamond. When you encounter such dangers that you can recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, there is bound to be great inspiration - Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara will come to save you, causing bad luck, bad luck. sand, dangerous without danger, dangerous without danger. Or meet the resentful bandits Holding the knife wants to harm Thanks to the power to recite the Quan Yin Method from the mind. The front mentions that evil people are people who are a bit reserved, not that they harm people openly. The hijackers say here is the one who blatantly steals wealth, kills people and burns houses, without any evil deeds. What we encounter is causal in our previous life. "Pirate" It is those who have resentment towards me, or that in the previous life, we stole their things, or killed them, or had something wrong with them, so this new life met each other and immediately turned into thugs. This is called: "Killing people must live, lack of debt to pay." You kill people, they will kill you too; If you rob people, you have to pay them back. Everything has a relationship. Bodhisattva Van-enemy-teacher-benefit once raised a koan. -He said: "I forever keep the world from stealing, never stealing anyone's things, what to prove? I can get a very expensive pearl to put right at the gate, no need The watch, which was still intact three days later, was not lost by the scavenger. Hence it is possible to prove that my words are sincere. " But still some people do not believe, so He experimented. He took a bead of precious pearls and brought it to the gate to drop in the most visible and crowded place. As expected, three days later, the pearls were still in place, not picked up by people. It is because he keeps the world of stealing very pure forever and ever, so that he has the result. Therefore, if we meet in the present day, we have to do it; No matter what things are lost or what is lost, there is no need to be too sad, but must be happy to accept, should not blame people. Back when I was at Nam Hoa pagoda I had a problem with bandits. One year, in front of Quan Am - September 19 - one day, many bandits wanted to rob Nam Hoa pagoda. They pounded on the door, but I didn't open it. A moment the back door was torn apart by bandits. At that time, front and back and both sides had bandits holding guns pointed at me, saying: "I want to die to die." Someone shouted threatening to hit me. But at that time I didn't feel scared at all, talking to them naturally. I asked them, "Why do you want to hit me?" They retorted: "Why didn't you open the door?" I replied: "Suppose you are me, and I am you, you would not want to open the door either! Why? Because you are here to get my things and not give gifts." Hearing me say that, they said, "Get your checks out!" At that time I was wearing a patched robe, I said: "If you look at the shirt I'm wearing here, do you know that I'm the one with the checks?" They looked over at them and asked again: "Who has the money here?" I said: "I am the Dharma teacher of this institute, the others are all students. I work as a Dharma teacher without any money, What students do with money? If you don't believe it, just go to my room and take a look. If you see something worthwhile or have a treasure, just take it! "At that time in my room it came out that there were two bum-bum dishes, but two" alive. " These two people, when they heard the slander coming to the door, their hands and feet were so weak that they could not walk, crawled up to me and said: - "Mage, what should I do? I'm so scared! "I said:" It's okay! You just go into my room and get under the bed to hide! "Then I told the bandits to go into the room to see what they can get, both of them trembling so scared, their teeth hit each other. In the end, the bandits didn't come into my room. also came out from the room to talk. The master just stepped out, the bandits were very strange, hurried up to point their guns at him, surrounded to fight, making Thay scared to tears. At that time in my heart very upset, I said: - "He also does not have any money, if you want money, you keep asking me here!" But the bandits didn't pay any attention to me, they kept asking for money. He said: - "Go into my room and get it!" Said and lead the bandits to get more than two hundred dollars. Perhaps money saved over many years, eventually falling into the hands of the bandits. The next day, the Master told the monks: - "There are more than two hundred people at Nam Hoa pagoda but only this Master cannot fear." I just told them: "It's not just me, there are four people in the temple who don't know fear." Who is the first? - " Being the Six To Great Master, the Taoist monks sat there as if motionless. The bandits come is their business, they rob whatever they steal, He doesn't pay attention. - "The second person is the Son of Great Master, he also sits as the old monk entered samadhi, in silence and not to be moved. Monk, even raised his head (because his body was slightly cuffed) to look at the bandits. - "The fourth is my turn." "Or encounter the resentment of bandits; Holding the knife to harm; Thanks to the power of reciting Quan Yin; All immediately arise from the mind." When I met the bandits I was not afraid, but in the end, the bandits did not beat me or shoot me at all. Why? Because at that time I recited Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva; At first they were very aggressive towards me, but seeing me as a ragged monk, thought: "This poor monk! the person breaking the law can clearly justify their innocence, while the person who is clearly not guilty can prove to be guilty. You look in this world, where do you want to find the truth? In this world, there is really no truth, only power. If you want to find the truth, you must look in Buddhism. So, you are either guilty, or not guilty, but caught by the law, about to be executed, within that short time (just fear you are too scared to go away and forget everything) if you are not too scared, still remember to recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, then the knife about to cut your head will naturally break into segments, proving that your neck is harder than the diamond so the knife will break. crushed like that. But if you have skepticism, intentionally sinned, your head is bound to fall. It is because for Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, If you don't have faith, you just want to experiment, of course you cannot be inspired. If there is true belief, all things are inspired. Or the old prison forbidden to radiate Hands and feet chained Thanks to the power of reciting Quan Yin suddenly liberated. What is prison? In Chinese characters, a prisoner (囚) means a person (人) locked in four walls (口). Prohibition is prohibition from being free. Old means gong. Prisoners are not only locked up in prison, but also have to carry gong. The gong is composed of two wooden pieces, in the middle there is a hole that is wide enough to carry into the neck and can be locked so that the criminal cannot escape. Radiation means shackles feet, chains to lock hands. As I said, every married person should soon become enlightened, not let three great things be confined. What are the three things? Parents like a collar carried on a neck, children like handcuffs. Do not think that having children and grandchildren is desirable, this type of cuffs will not take off once they are brought in. Having a wife is like being chained and not being free. Today, there was a disciple, saying this: - "I borrowed more than two thousand dong from the government, if now I want to leave home, these two thousand dong cannot be paid, so first I have to work to pay After finishing the debt, then I can decide to leave home. " He says it's true or fake I don't care, I just tell everyone in advance that maybe when he pays off his debt, his leg will be caught in some shackles, but I hope he won't. to be shackled to be an American celebrant. I bring this to everyone so everyone can pray together, wish him the success of being the leader of Buddhism in America. Currently America really needs people to ordain, everyone wants to ordain, No matter what kind of person they were in the past, I deeply appreciate it, as long as after they are ordained they can keep the rules. I try my best to train the elders for the United States, but they cannot keep up by themselves because they do not have the basic, the roots are not yet deepened. However, I want to nurture that in the American Buddhist world, every monk is an Elder, even a Master of Buddhism in America. What should I do when my limbs are tied up by an instrument, lose all their freedom? Just reciting Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva will be naturally liberated. Previously, in China, there was a monk who was captured by a mountainous ethnic group (Dao people) and tied up in a room. The people here are very brutal in nature, and specialize in making Han people kill them to eat meat. This monk normally believed in Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara very much, so at that time he was not afraid. just one mind to recite Guanyin Bodhisattva. He kept reciting and reciting, as a result, a tiger came to his cell and broke the door open for him to escape freely. Such a dangerous scene can turn danger into security, so the fulfillment of reciting the name of Bodhisattva of Avalokiteshvara cannot say all. Remarks, poisonous drugs Want to harm that body, Thanks to the power of reciting Guanyin, he can suffer. Mantra is chanting; Reflections are like uncle. I have many things, Tantra has the most mantras. The lamas in Tibet have a type of mantra, just reciting for seven days can make others die. There are things that you kill people, and things you do to benefit people. You say here is what you hurt people. Poisons are common to all poisons. When you come across all kinds of mantras, poisons are harmful to the body, in that situation, if you think one-pointedly: "Namo Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva," then these mantras and poison not only cannot harm you but also return to harm the perpetrator. Once in China there was a person who specialized in guessing hexagrams and guessed correctly. Why did he guess such a miracle? Because in his body there are demonic demons to help. This devil eats a male and a female each year, so this fortune-teller has to kidnap a boy and a girl every year to sacrifice it. That year, he caught a young girl who at home is often taught to recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. While being locked in the room waiting for the devil to come eat meat, the child immediately recited the title of Bodhisattva Guanyin. Moments later, the devil came and stood outside the window looking in. From the demon's eyes, two beams of light emanated from the child's body. The child recited the Bodhisattva in mind, so it also emitted a light from its mouth. Suddenly the baby felt something huge falling from the top of the house. Thought the monster was about to eat him, the baby was too scared to scream. At that moment, outside a patrolman just arrived, heard inside the house with children crying for help, so broke the door, and discovered the body of a giant serpent. This great serpent is the Ma-ma-la-old (Maharaga). As a result, the fortune teller was arrested and interrogated: "Why did you keep that little girl in it?" He replied: "I have been helped by a fairy with divination, that fairy must eat a boy and a girl every year. I have all made such sacrifices for many years, thanks to that position, this fairy helps me with fortune telling. Experimental, making a lot of money. " Then he was imprisoned and punished according to the law. That fortune-teller is very powerful, but cannot count on his own end to be punished by the law and beheaded. It is an example of: "Sticky notes, poisonous drugs, want to harm that body, thanks to the power of reciting Quan Yin, the person causes suffering." So, harming people is ultimately self-harm! The sentence "The one who causes suffering," in the old days To Dong Pha had corrected it, "Both sides are insecure." He said that Buddhism is very compassionate, if saying "The person who causes suffering" means harming himself, wouldn't it be a lack of compassion? His corrections mean: The person who chanted the spell and the person who was being concealed were all safe. Actually, that is a mistake. Why? Buddhism teaches the precepts, liberation, but "except violence for peace." Exclusion of evil is one aspect of good. If they do not exclude evil people, they will harm the honest. If they cheat, or use poisonous drugs and end up unharmed, wouldn't it be encouraging to them? They cannot harm people, but they still intend to harm people. If they cannot harm this person, they will want to harm others, but if that person does not know the concept of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, they can die for them! If they know mindfulness, of course they cannot harm; But people who do not know Guanyin 's Bodhisattva recite a lot, so it is not correct to say "Both sides are unjust". Having to make the wicked people suffer a little bit of their own suffering, they receive the retribution is also worthy, so that they will naturally not dare to harm others. Or meet the evil Dragon, the evil dragon, by reciting the power of Quan Yin All, do not dare to harm. Or you go to a deserted mountain, where there is no shadow of people, and you encounter the demons, poisonous dragons, or other demons. Ma La was exceptionally ferocious, like the Dao people in China who specialize in cannibalism. Poison dragons can also harm people. They usually occupy an area, either in a pond, or in a large river, whenever someone passes through their habitat, they are sprayed with venom, hit and killed. Having a large poisonous dragon, even taking a breath that can cause both the boat and the body to run wild, is so damaging! As for demons, there is not only one thing, but there are many, such as Multi-talented demons, Talented demons, Immortal demons, and so on. They are all demons, but are the leader of the devil, just like the Demon King. " There is light in the mouth, all demons are afraid of light, so they cannot harm you. Or the beasts surrounding the fearsome sharp-clawed Fangs Thanks to the power of reciting Quan Yin Dao rushed away. Evil beasts mean wolf, tiger, leopard, these beasts specialize in cannibalism. There are no tigers in the mountains of the United States, but in China and India there are many tigers. When I was a child, I once went into the mountain, went 5 or 6 days in a place where no one was living, and met these beasts. But I wonder why they don't eat me. The beast's teeth were sharp like knives, and claws as hard as hooks. If you meet such surrounding beasts and know how to immediately recite Guanyin Bodhisattva, they not only dare not harm you but also run away immediately. Why run away? Because Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva has a divine touch (hunch) that makes them, once seeing you, naturally give birth to fear, rushing to flee away. Obediently and posted poisonous gas blows Thanks to the power to recite Quan Yin According to the voice self away. Obedience is a poisonous snake, mostly black in color. Phuc, in China called Dien beam (snake termite), is often found on the roof fringe. This snake is very much in Thailand, often appears at night and squeals, not afraid of people. It has four small legs, often running back and forth on the roof. Phuc beam is a very poisonous snake. That means a scorpion, if someone is stung by it, they can be instantly hit by death. They all have poisonous gas, it is extremely poisonous! Even makes people lose their lives like playing. Even if they encounter poisonous snakes like that, if they hear your voice chanting " so called beings. It can also be explained: "Beings," is the very birth. You see the Chinese word "them" (眾), above is the word "four" (四), below are the three words "multiply" (人), three people put together a place called "them." What is the most troublesome species of living beings? It is "human" (human). People need to wear clothes, have to eat, have to work, so much is troublesome, not all! But the fully intelligent species is also human. Although animals do not have so many troubles, but they are too stupid, have no intelligence like humans, so they must be directed and dominated by humans. In China there is a saying: Human micro-things chi linh. Human is the most intelligent thing of all things. But the smartest is sometimes the dumbest, again annoying myself, I fight myself. What does that mean? That is when "was miserable." The word "suffering" implies: The world is free from harm, self-harmless people (Heaven is peaceful, and the idiot stirred it up), so there is immense suffering. Without food is miserable, without clothes is also miserable, without a house is also miserable, how much is suffering, forever not end! All day for clothes, rice, house; life in a hurry to seek dress, even snatch something away just to maintain his own life. Why must we maintain our own life? Also because of "suffering" forcing, the result must be taken with immeasurable suffering! Bodhisattva Quan Avalokiteshvara has wonderful wisdom and thought, can help all the world's suffering; so we are human, encounter any dissatisfaction, There is no need to worry about suffering, just reciting Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, all problems can be solved slowly. As long as you are loyal to him, Avalokiteshvara will definitely come to your aid right away. Full of miraculous powers Extensive cultivation of the means The realms of ten directions There is nowhere to appear. What is divine power? Divine powers include sáu type. -The first is the divine eye. With the divine eye, you can see the movements of the celestial beings in the three-decade heavenly heaven (Dao Loi). -The second is the Thien Atrium. With the Atrium, you can hear all the sounds of the ten worlds in humans as well as in heaven. -Thirdly is the compassionate mind, the ability to know the thoughts of others. -Fourth is Túc network information, the ability to know the cause and effect of previous lives. Fifth is the Divine sufficiency, also known as the Spirit scene, ie the ability to fly away, transform freely. - Friday is the Endless Gon. This miracle is not easy to achieve. All demons have their first five miraculous powers, which they alone do not have. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara fully possesses these six kinds of divine powers, so it is called "Full of divine power." Broadly cultivated means, due to the word " Why? Because you and He don't have any relationship at all! Even his title you do not want to know, do not want to recite, He said: - "Well, it does not want to be friends with me, I should not pay attention to its nowhere." If you want to be friends with the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, you must recite many "Bodhisattva Bodhisattva." Once you recite His name, Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva will say, "Ah, I have one more friend. Okay! This new friend of mine if there is anything I will come to help. " Someone wants to know how to be able to prove it. There are many methods. You can diligently recite the Surangama mantra, and you can also gain divine knowledge; or if you recite the Great Compassion mantra and practice the forty-two Eye of the Great Compassion Dafa, you can also have a divine eye. You are deliberately trying to study the Dharma, can be passed on by the divine eye, but the method is very dangerous, I hope people will not apply it. Why? You may remember that when I preached the Sutras of Surangama, there was a mention of Venerable Arahant, the great disciple who specialized in falling asleep. Later, he was rebuked by the Buddha as: - "Ooh, sleep and rest, like a snail, sleeping for a thousand years, not hearing the name of the Buddha." Hearing Buddha's words like that, he was thrilled to exert effort, not sleep anymore. Continuously without sleep for seven days and nights, his eyes were blind. The new loving Buddha taught him to practice Vajrayana Shining Ming Tam Muoi, as a result he was honored as the most divine eye. Ananias is Sanskrit, Chinese translation is Vo Ban (not poor). Why does He have this name? Countless past lives, he was a novice of Bodhi mind, although he had not yet been a disciple of the Buddha but knew the meaning of giving. At that time, He is a very poor farmer. Near his house, on the mountainside there was a Bhikkhu-stilts witnessing the fruit Bich-chi of the Buddha residing. This old bhikkhu every seven days to go down the mountain to turn into a son once, each time only transform into seven houses, absolutely no more; If the seven houses all give alms, they will have enough to eat for seven days; If there was a house without almsgiving, that day would go hungry. Even though the fate was not good, it was still seven days before I went down the mountain again. One day the peasant went to the field, and brought rice to prepare for a meal after plowing, when he saw that the poor bhikkhu descended from the mountain without being able to ask for anything, and arose almsgiving. . He thought: - "Today we should not eat rice, to bring this rice to help that poor bhikkhu!" That peasant man completely did not know that the old Bhikkhu-stilts is a saintly person who attests to the Buddhahood, But the old bhikkhu has a compassionate heart, after observing conditions and conditions, he thinks: - "Ah, I already know why he brought me this kind of rice? The poorest and cheapest rice that the poor people can eat) It turned out that he did not have money, he had to eat this rice every day. This merit is unthinkable. " The Bich-chi Buddha was very happy, praising the farmer: - "As visually, as Thi! You made an offering with a very sincere heart." Finished, the monk went back to the mountain. After a while, the farmer saw a rabbit running towards him, suddenly jumped on his shoulder and stuck it on, taking it off. So scared, he rushed home trying to remove the rabbit. When he removed it, he looked closely at the golden rabbit. He just cut a rabbit leg and sold it for money. Later on, seeing that the rabbit's legs were regrown. Thanks to that, he prospered, from then on, forever after life, there was plenty of money, no need anymore. That was because he made offerings to the Pratyekabuddha of the Buddha with a sincere mind, so he got such great retribution; Eternal and eternal life, "Vo Poor," is no longer poor. That is why Ton fake A-Na-Law is called "Vo Poor." The Sutras of the Four-Tenths Chapter said: "Offering a hundred people doing evil, not equal to offering a good man." Offering a thousand good people, not equaling offering a layperson taking the five precepts. "Offering ten thousand lay people to maintain the five precepts, not equal to offering a ten-precept Sa-di." Offering a hundred thousand Sa-di is not equal to offering a monk. "Offering a million Bhikkhu-stilts is not equal to offering a testimony of Sisters Tu-da-complete." Offering ten million Tu-da-complete is not equal to offering a witness of Tu-da-jaw . "Offering a hundred million Tu-da-jaw is not as good as offering a witness of the Three results A-na-function." Offering a hundred billion A-na-function is not equal to offering a witness of Four results A- "But, you do not count as many offerings as you can count an Arahant, not equal to offering an unsuspecting non-monk. Who is the unsubstantiated monk? That is Buddha. offering countless numbers of the Buddha is still not as good as offering a heartless Dao. The Buddha Arahant makes an offering of a Bich-chi Buddha that is not poor forever and ever, and exceptionally rich. - Not being a Prince and a king will also be the son of a rich man in the world. So we want to avoid poverty forever and ever, then make offerings to the Three Jewels, in the future, we will have a chance to be rich. But when you are rich, there is another problem. That is: "Poor almsgiving, and preciousness learns hard" (Poor, almsgiving is difficult, richness is hard to study), Why is Ananias rich? Because He was poor, he was able to give alms, sacrificing his personal lunch to offer the Three Jewels - thanks to a genuine recitation, he received immeasurable blessings. Usually, the poor do not eat enough themselves. If they bring them, they have nothing to eat anymore, so they say "almsgiving is difficult." How about being rich? Then "study hard." Rich people have money, you tell them to study Buddhism, they will never accept it! Those are two of the twenty difficult things [see the Four-Four Sutras] that we need to pay attention to. The species in the road of evil Hell, demons, animals Suffering from birth, old age, sickness, death Times will make it clean. The evil destinies or evil are evil places, and there are not only one but many. In general, there are four species: -A-tu-la, -nga demons, -spring,-hell. A tu-la, as explained before, they are solid fight; The types of beings who like to fight belong to the A-tu-la. Where did hell come from? It is due to our individual karma that comes about. Whatever crime you commit, hell will appear corresponding to that crime. Hell is divided into many things. The Jizō Sutra says: "The great prison has eighteen, then there are five hundred small hells, there are thousands and hundreds of infinite hells." Is hell like a prison on earth? Since people make a very solid house, wait until someone commits a crime, then put it there? Not like that! Hell is manifested by each individual's crime. If you create negative karma, then a murderous hell will appear; creating a burning crime will have a burning hell appear. By creating any negative karma, that hell will manifest, so the category of hell is not certain. When the karma is finished, that hell will disappear on its own. Karma is not over, then hell remains. In Manchuria where I was born, in Du Tho district, there was the "Liu fairy who gave birth to a pig," he could remember from his three previous lives. First, he was a filial son to his parents, then reincarnated as a rich son. His father was over forty years old to give birth to a son, grandfather. By the time he was thirteen, his parents married him a wife one or two years older than him. His father, though in his mid-fifties, was still strong, and married another concubine, who was close to his daughter-in-law's age. Liu Bei was born with a wife of less than two years and gave birth to a son. Waiting for his son to be thirteen, he married again, and the daughter-in-law was several years older than his son. Before long, his parents died one after another, leaving only his father's concubine. He saw that his father's concubine was so beautiful, so he took over as his wife. Not long after that, his son died again, he saw that his daughter-in-law was also beautiful, so he took the bride as his wife. So, the little mother is also the wife, the bride is also the wife of all; That is called "above will win mother, below will win strawberries." He was only about twenty-eight or twenty-nine years old. Until he was over forty years old, he began to wake up, thinking to himself, "Oh, my whole life committed so many crimes! He was reincarnated into a very poor family, his parents specialized in selling breakfast. A baby born especially from a young age likes to eat and drink so much that his belly gets bigger and bigger. Until the baby was five years old, because the belly was too big and died. After the baby died, his parents discussed together: "Why is this boy's stomach so big? There must be something in it. Let's open it up!" Then they cut open the baby's belly and found it contained a hard diamond-like object. The demon next to him said, "Ah, let's get him to cook oil now!" Then he led him to meet King Diem La, the king said: - Now, make it a pig first! He was reincarnated as a pig, fattened and then sent to meat. After that, he went back to hell to wait to cook oil. He said to King Yancha: - You don't need to cook me anymore, Let me return to the human world reincarnated as a human! And please leave me a pig hand as evidence so that I advise people not to create evil karma. King Yancha said: That's fine! So he was reincarnated into the Liu family. People saw that he had a hand shaped exactly like a pig's hoof, so he called him "Liu fairy born pig hand." This man I met and talked a lot with him myself, so knowing that he remembers his previous life very clearly. That is the cause of the predestined evil (evil way) to be created. Hell is a very dangerous place, I hope everyone should not create negative karma, otherwise suffering is difficult to avoid. Again in Hefin (Harbin), Manchuria, there was a monk, one time Thay was very sick, felt himself dead. After death, the consciousness followed the main road and ran away, running to a place not far from the temple to reincarnate. What do reincarnation do? Be a pig. When he found himself being a pig, he refused to suckle to starve. After starving, the consciousness returned to the master's body. Just awakening, the magician said: - Ah, I just reincarnated as a pig! The next person asked: Where did you come to be reincarnated as a pig? - I feel much less sick now! Let me take you and my teachers together to see it. There have just given birth to seven piglets, I am one of those seven. I deliberately did not suck so I died here. Next to that monk, along with other teachers, arrived there, indeed a family has just had seven small pigs born, including a piglet that has just died. That is the monk who can remember his background, this person I also met. Since this can be seen, being born as a human is not easy, our human body is very difficult. So there is a saying: "The human body is hard to hear, the Buddha's teachings are hard to hear." You try to see, in America, out of the thousands and thousands of people, how many people can hear the Dharma? "Good knowledge is difficult to meet." It is not easy if you want to meet a true intellectual Thien fully understand the Dharma. There are those who claim to be Teachers but even themselves do not know the morality, if they teach you the doctrine, they are just slurred speeches. The hungry ghosts, also due to their karma, are inspired to suffer retribution as such. About hungry ghosts I've explained many times - their stomachs are big like a drum, their necks are as small as needles. Our food once it reaches the mouth of a hungry ghost turns into fire. Why turned into fire? Because their karma is so heavy, whatever food reaches the mouth turns into fire. Speaking of karma, beings in heaven see water as crystal; man sees water as water; fish see water as their home, use water as their palace; Devil sees water as fire. Each species has different realms. That is because of the karma, so the view is not the same. Just now, I mentioned a monk who was reincarnated as a pig. There are also people who reincarnate as chickens, cows, horses, etc.When people live without filial piety and disrespect to the chief, the future will have a relationship with the animals. And those who like to eat meat, that is having an affair with "animals," the future is also very dangerous. "Species in the evil road" is including the four above-mentioned evil. In addition to the suffering of birth, old age, sickness, and death, human beings also have three kinds of suffering: -Do, -Don't suffer and -hose suffering. Suffering is misery, just like the poor poor and poor, who have no money, no food, no shelter, I can't get a job, it's just more miserable. The suffering in that misery is unbearable. So, shouldn't the rich people suffer? People with money are more miserable! Someone said: "You say that ethics I do not believe." You don't believe I say the same, but believe me to say the same. Why? You see there is a lot of money, from morning to night thinking: "Should we bring this deposit to the bank? Take this money to trade. Bring this money to ..." In short, when there is money If you don't count, it's annoying like that! Counting back and forth, counting to gray hair, long teeth, blurred vision, deaf ears, not yet! Counting forever, what do you say? There will be problems. Because there's so much money, counting money all day long, counting back and forth, the risk of being known to the bandits, at night they break the door, how much wealth to save for a long time was robbed from birth. That is called suffering there. This misery is worse than poverty. Because the poor are used to it, not feeling much misery. But when the wealth suddenly dissipates, the suffering is too much. Especially for the elderly, money is not available, all are not as expected. That is also called suffering. Then, the person who is neither rich nor poor, surely there is no suffering? Still suffering. What more suffering? That is the practice of suffering: People from a young age then grow up, grow old, get old and die, the concept of mindfulness changes without stopping. Even without poverty and misery, without the misery of wealth, there is suffering. These three kinds of misery cannot be avoided. There are also Eight sufferings. Three miseries were not less and then piled up eight more! In truth, "suffering" is not only eight, Actually, there are thousands, tens of thousands, thousands thousands of thousands of suffering, not all count. The most misery is being human; making animals happier than making people. So do not do anything new without suffering? Only being a Buddha is not suffering! Why make animals better than being human? Animals do not have to worry about food, nor about clothing and shelter. They have natural living conditions, no worries, you see? Only human beings suffer from all kinds of sufferings, not just eighty-four thousand but also a thousand thousand and ten thousand sufferings. Now they only talk about eight sufferings: birth, old age, sickness, death, separation, resentment, meeting, pray that cannot be, a warm year. Which of these eight suffering do you consider the most? That is suffering! If there is no birth, then what do the other sufferings do. Question: How is suffering? - Well, I know you have forgotten that misery. Now I would like to tell you clearly: This birth is due to the parent's blood, it is due to the intermediate state body until reincarnation. When still in the womb, the first 4 weeks without feeling, until week 7 to have understanding. At that time, if your mother eats something cold, you are like in the middle of a mountain of ice, and you will be very upset; If she eats something hot, you are like in a cauldron, unbearably hot. Those are the pressing cold and hot cold in the mother's womb. Sometimes she twists her back, you feel like being pressed down by Thai Son, and she straightens her back and feels very comfortable. When you are born, you will suffer even more. At that moment, you suffer as if being pressed between two mountains like being forced by the mountain in hell, so every time you are born you cry out: "Suffering a! Suffering a! Suffering a!" Pain was like a tortured living turtle at birth, But when I grow up I forget all that suffering. Then the old age overturns, the suffering of old age is no less bad. When old age, deaf ears, people scold are not good; blurred vision, not clear to see anything. It was the ears and eyes that started to "strike" already. Although the tongue is still there, the teeth have already fallen out. Before, I have met some eight or ninety-year-old and asked: - Have you seen anyone losing their tongue? Why are her teeth falling out? He said, "No! Have you seen it?" - I don't even see it. The old man who was at that age but has not seen anyone lose his tongue is so young as I can not see this strange thing! I asked him again: "Do you know why your tongue does not fall? Why in this world there is no tongue falling out, only teeth fall?" - "Why?" He asked. - Because the teeth are too hard, they must break. The reason why the tongue does not fall is because of the soft tongue. Old age is also not too tough. If it's too hard, it will look like teeth can fall out, so learn a little soft. Then what suffering does a missing tooth suffer? Of course, there is no appetite or when chewing food has no taste. That food enters the mouth of other people to chew vegetables and crave it, but when I chew it, I can't chew it. If I want to bite, I won't bite it, and swallows hard and turns into indigestion. Do you think it's miserable? On the face, all the skin was wrinkled, it was "gray hair," the flesh on the face was like bumps, rough and unsightly. And the hair is white. "Gray hair" for Americans does not mean old age. For Westerners, newborn babies have white hair. It is not gray hair of old age, but white hair of youth. However, that is only a special case. Old people's white hair is from black hair that changes color. Black hair can change to white, and white hair cannot change to black, but sometimes it can be changed. Back in Hong Kong, my hair was all gray. Why? Because I built the pagoda, repaired three temples. Oh, it took so much mental damage, it turned gray hair. Later I considered myself: "Ah! That's enough! There is no need to waste energy!" Since then everything is let go. Then, slowly return the hair to black. So anything is not fixed. Now look up at my head, only a little gray hair, not much! Agony is not easy to bear. If you don't believe it, just try it. Wait until you are old to know its taste. You don't mind living to seven, eighty, or eight, ninety, or even one hundred years old; at that time, You can't smell anything you eat. Only then will you know: "Ah, a teacher said that old is very miserable, I don't believe it, now I know, right and wrong." At that time you want to practice again, it is too late. The most equality is suffering. Anyone who gets sick much, if not much, also gets sick a little. Headache, head discomfort, leg pain, discomfort, body pain, body is not safe. There are too many things when sick, like having stomachache, then uncomfortable eating, if there is lung disease, the cough does not stop. In short, the organs: heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, every disease is suffering. The most suffering is "death." Someone said, "Damn it? I don't know what it tastes like? I want to know first." Then you just try to die once and see, but no one dares to guarantee that you will live again, so that one try couldn't try it. It's easy to die, but where do you go to die? That is a great matter. After death then to hell? Or animals? Or to be human? No one dares to guarantee that! Being born, old, sick, and dying are all suffering. Why did Buddha Shakyamuni want to leave home? It is also because He knows that birth, old age, sickness, and death are suffering that cannot be easily tolerated. When he was nineteen, one day he was traveling to the east gate, saw a woman in labor, and asked his entourage: "What is that?" - That is the birth of a baby! The entourage replied. Seeing the baby crying and screaming but the woman was also in extreme pain, the Prince was unhappy, and then returned to the palace. The second day the Prince came to the South Gate, he saw an old man, his hair was all white, his eyes were blurred, his back was cuffed and could not stand upright. His feet were shaking, unable to walk steadily, suffering a hundred days, and asked his entourage: - "What's wrong with you? Why is that?" The entourage replied: "The man is already old, his age is too high, so he just came out too shallow." Prince, feeling unhappy, immediately returned to the palace. On the third day, the Prince went to the West Gate again, met someone who was writhing with the illness, so he was not happy to return. On Wednesday, the Prince went to visit again at the North Gate. When he met a dead man, he asked his entourage, "What's he like?" - The man is dead! Again he felt extraordinary sadness, his eyes seeing birth, old age, sickness, and death were the path that mankind had to go through, very miserable, it had no meaning at all. Thinking like that, Prince planning to return to the palace. At that moment suddenly appeared a Sa-Mon, ie the renunciation. The Prince asked again: "Who is that person?" An entourage came to him and asked him, "Who are you?" The Monk replied: I am a monk, studying according to Buddhism so that I can leave the suffering of birth, old age, sickness, and death. The Prince, who heard that spiritual practice can kill birth and death, is very happy, and asked the monk again: "Can I practice like Him?" - Anyone can cultivate. The Monk replied: Anyone can leave suffering from birth, old age, sickness, and death. After returning to the palace, in the evening, the Prince and his horse-keeper, Xaac, sneaked out of the palace, to ordain as a monk. Buddha Shakyamuni was born, old, sick, and dead did not mean anything. Also do not know where the birth came from? Where are we going to die then? So he made up his mind to leave home, went to Tuyet Son to sit for six years, thereby avoiding suffering from birth, old age, sickness and death. And human? Anyone can be born, but no one is immune to death. All future people must die, some people die well, some people die badly, everyone has a way of dying, no one is like anyone. Some people died of illness, some died of starvation, someone died from overwork, someone was run over by a vehicle, someone was crushed to death by a rock, or a person was beaten to death by someone who went to fight, or I died in the battlefield, poisoned and died, or killed myself. Some people do not want to die but die, sometimes they do not want to die. So copper is a "dead" sound but the way of dying is not the same. Although the way to die is not the same but karmic retribution in the future after death? Also not the same! If someone dies suddenly, like being hit by a car, swept away by water, burnt by fire - that is, at any sudden death - the soul of the Pluto family will not know, Demons don't know either, so are they free? It is freedom, but it is the freedom of the devil, not the freedom of man. The one who is free sometimes doesn't follow the rules, the situation is the devil? A demon that is free may also be irregular; The sudden death (any sudden death) makes someone else take his place. For example, at a certain section of a highway where a fatal car crash has occurred, someone will be killed there within three years. Why? Because the evil spirit of death is already there, it must definitely cause other people to die so that it can be reincarnated, otherwise it must stay there forever, not fall. If a person commits suicide or dies with poison, he must go to hell and suffer extremely painful punishment. What are the penalties? While still alive, if he drank poison and died, Then go to Hell to drink the molten iron water. That water poured into the stomach, where the liver burns there. After being burned to death, the cool wind blowing back and forth was revived. When I came back to life, I had to drink the iron water and burned my intestines and died, and then met the wind again. Just like that, live again and again to continue suffering, die again, constantly. If you can recite Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, the suffering of birth, old age, sickness, and death will gradually dissipate. In addition to the above four miseries, there is also suffering because "love leaves." This "love" everyone knows. Someone loves beauty, someone loves a reputation. Money lover is also love. For example, there are people who are very rich, planning to do a large business to make a profit, but the business fails to lose all their capital, and the money is gone. He divided with benefit, he did not want to leave money, but the money was no more, is also a kind of compassion to leave. "Sac" is a matter of boys and girls, boys love the beauty of girls, girls love the beauty of boys, both ways love each other, but because the previous life did not cultivate causes and effects, this love could not last long. In that state, it must be broken halfway through. During that time apart, if there is no true love, it's okay to break up; If there is a true love that is attached to it, it will suffer extremely. That is the kind of love that separates the suffering of beauty love. There is also suffering from love and fame. Why is this famous language separate? Someone said this: "Name is the second life of a man." They believe that reputation is their second life, if that second life is broken tomorrow, it will become the reputation lost. Before, I didn't want to lose my name, But because of the momentary mess, the honor is shattered. It is also a kind of separation suffering for fame. This kind of love separation suffering a lot. For example, husband and wife have no separation, but the child born with a beautiful appearance is intelligent, so they cherishly consider it as a treasure. Suddenly, that treasure died, and then weeped and cried in extreme pain. This is also a kind of suffering. Or someone who is very filial to their parents, very respectful and loving, never wants to leave their parents, but then the parents pass away. That is also suffering. Or there are people in extremely favorable circumstances, parents-in-law are all good, but I myself have to die. Even among brothers and friends, there was this disproportionate thing, which in the past did not want to leave but then had to separate; That is also suffering. Knowing that separation is suffering, you should not be attached to that kind of love anymore, Should not bring that kind of love to any one person, but should aim at all sentient beings, practice Bodhisattva to save all sentient beings, not for oneself but think of everyone, then there will be no suffering anymore. There is also this kind of separation love: Someone attaches to love, without suffering, they find suffering to suffer. Like a couple, all day long and only sad. Worried what? Fear that their wife has another boyfriend. So isn't it that there is no suffering in search of suffering? There are also many women who have been married, perhaps the husband is too handsome, so all day long he is not worried about anything other than just grieving his husband has a new beauty, even worrying about rice and not eating. . Do you think that's too dumb? There are also people who do not love anyone, love dogs like their own life; Someone loves cats, treat the cat as your life; until for all living beings or matter there is love. What about this love when it arises? Also very funny. The person who loves the dog when the dog dies, the person who loves the cat until the cat dies, then it is like my life also dies. They cried the dog cat bouts. It is also a kind of suffering. In a nutshell, you for anything, can not see, give up, until there is something special that must be separated that makes you feel great suffering, which is called "Goodbye. lyric suffering. " Someone said: "Just love, but it is so painful? Well, then I don't love anymore, I will hate everything!" "Hate" means not love. There is a mind of hatred, resentment, hatred; For anything, it is not love at all. That is even more wrong. Then, to say love is suffering, What about not in love? Suffering as usual! That is called "Satisfaction with suffering." In this case, you feel aversion, aversion to others, have no relationship with anyone, feel that everyone is not good to you, so you don't like anyone. You don't love people, you don't love dogs, and cats don't even like them. Everything does not fit the eyes, everything is easily angry. Then I moved my house to a different place. After moving, I met a person, something even worse than before! The things you do not want to see, see it the more you hate the more that you often meet. Ah, strange, so strange! If you are afraid of the cat, the cat keeps running to you all day, chasing it still does not go. Do you still hate dogs! The more you hate it, the more entangled you. Do you hate women? Women all day come knocking on the door to find you. You don't like to have to move again, But every place has met the same situation, worse than before! In general, there is no safe or happy day. Do you say suffering? Where does this suffering come from? It is really due to your own nature, so because your own nature lacks concentration. You in this place find that you and your neighbors don't get along, but moving to another place doesn't get along. This is not that people are not nice to you, but that you are not nice to them. Because one feels that there is no predestined relationship with other people, people also see no conditions for themselves. Then feeling good is also suffering, but feeling bad is also suffering. So they must do? Must be with the Middle Way. In short, anything should not be outrageous, because extreme is also inadequate. Resentment of this suffering is very strange! The more you don't want, the more you will face it. The person who did not want to drink, the wine demon stayed with him all day long. The person who did not want to smoke, the demon smoking the handbag again ran to the house. People who don't like to gamble, the gambling demon is inviting every day. Why? Because you have resentment (jealousy), so they come together to make suffering. There is resentment of suffering and separation of suffering because of not knowing the true Middle Way, because it leans on one side, falls on one side, so it is suffering. If you can keep the Middle Way, you will never have suffering. I believe that no one hates "money", but this "money", the more you don't hate it, the more you love it, the less it will come. The strange thing to be loved but not come is "Prayer of grief." Love is suffering, hate is also suffering. Whenever we love, we have a wish, but often we cannot pray. There are people who want to be prosperous all their life, so they work diligently and bear all kinds of bitterness. From the time I was born, I hoped to have a fortune, but until the moment I died, my talent was still not distributed, making a poor ghost. That is unbearable prayer there! Some people feel that being a mandarin is very interesting, so they find all the ways to be a mandarin, but in the end they can not do it in the end, that is also a prayer. There are people who pray for fame all their life but can't pray for a lifetime. Someone who has no children wants to give birth to an intelligent boy, a beautiful girl, but the prayers are still not satisfied, it is also a prayer. Many people all their lives, if you don't pray for one, then pray for the other, but you can't pray for anything. Someone who goes to school wants to be a doctor, but since his previous life did not cultivate a good basis for studying, so he learned to grow old with blurred vision, deaf ears, read dozens of books that a Doctor's degree cannot reach. In ancient China, there was a person named Luong Hao, who went to school until 82 years old to pass the Poinsettias, but passed the status to death soon. Although praying, but not enjoying is already dead. That is also suffering. East bridge cannot be East, West bridge cannot be West; in short, you pray without being satisfied. That is suffering! There is also "The Five Warmth and Suffering." What is the kettle? That is materiality, feeling, perception, action, and consciousness. Tam Kinh says: "Form is no different from zero, no difference between rupa; materiality means no, no materiality." If you consider them to be nothing there will be no suffering. These five qualities of warmth, warm longevity, warm thoughts, warm onions and warm waking up when being extraordinarily strong are very miserable, but one cannot leave it. The previous seven things of suffering belong to suffering (filthy suffering), but the perception of this practice is inherent in the nature, always attached to you, wanting to leave also cannot. That is called the Five Warmth and Suffering. Pure innocence of the vast Wisdom insight Bi Quan and From Thuong Vay often admire. Pure footsteps: What is "footsteps?" That is Chon shop. Chon does not mean no human form, self, beings, and fake feeling. Although not self, no human generals, no sentient beings, not assume general, but also does not leave human generals, general beings, sentient beings, and generals. So "formless" does not mean that there is no self, cause, sentient beings, or false feelings, but that in the form of self, human, sentient beings, that person does not see the form of self, human beings, beings, and beings . That is called right where the general left the general. As I said before: Eyes see form, in no; Hear the sound, the mind is not. Clearly there is a sharp image, why is it "in not?" It is because there is no attachment. "Not consistent" is the same as Dai respectable. In Dai Dai respect, although there are objects, it appears, if there are general, then if there is any realm, the realm of that realm, but it does not leave a trace. The feet of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara are the same. What is "pure contemplation?" Because for defilements, it is pure. Why is it called pollution? Whenever there is attachment that is defilement, having attachment in front is also defilement, and having attachment is also defilement. Chastity does not have all greed, hatred, and delusion; avoiding greed, ignorance and ignorance are not pure. For example, giving. Usually people give alms or have these thoughts: "He is related to me, he is close friends with me, or lives in the same neighborhood with me. That is called almsgiving. Internal talent is to bring body, mind, nature, head, eyes, brain, marrow to the bones of the limbs are all giving alms. "If it is possible to bring this body to save all living beings in the world, I would like to give alms to this body, dedicate to the world, to my heart also give alms to you, my life also asks you. If someone needs my head, I'll decapitate and give it to them. " Just as he was when he practiced Bodhisattva, someone came to ask for an eye, he immediately hooked one eye out for that person. Who would expect him to say, "You're wrong! It's not like I asked for this eye, that eye!" Then Mr. Xa-benefits-waving the Bodhi mind, thinking: "Ah, the Bodhisattva is difficult to practice!" Mr. Xa-benefit-waving could only discharge half of his internal assets, and half could not discharge. But Bo-slaps think like this: " I am the Master teaching the sutras to you, but I also have to work like everyone else. Because of so much work to be done, the tendons on my body have been aching for several days. Last night I was a bit tired, could not come to listen to lectures, because I worked too much so I was tired. But I tire Master, it's okay to be a little lazy, because I have studied for so many years, a little laziness can be forgiven, and you as a student cannot be lazy. Regardless of who lectures the sutras, they must attend to listen. To listen to the dharma is the expression of the protection of the colon. The more people who came to listen, the more excited the atmosphere was. If everyone does not come to listen, then no longer excited. So if you want to support Buddhism, you must come to listen to the sermon, you don't have to spend a lot of money to support the Dharma in support of the ashram. Among you are the Missionary Guardian, the Missionary Father, Tuyen professor. Professors preach the sermons. The chaplain's father had to go everywhere to advertise and advertise. The clergymen must wholeheartedly support the ashram to make the ashram more and more develop better. Dharma protector is the main protector of Buddhism; to maintain Buddhism is to uphold the Three Jewels: Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha. It is your personal responsibility. Westerners, for the Dharma, before and up to now, can say that knowledge is too childish, really do not understand the Dharma. Like a few people in America, claiming to be the Elder, Mage that we all know now! What about their knowledge of Dhamma? Even they themselves do not understand what Buddhism is! Now that you have listened to the Surangama Sutra, it can be said that you understand quite a lot about Buddhism. Currently teaching about the dharma of almsgiving, introduce your Buddhist knowledge to all living beings and spread it individually. Because of spreading the Dharma, it is okay to forget to eat and sleep. I used to have such a situation when promoting the Dharma: If anyone wants to learn the Dharma, I explain to them that they forget to eat and sleep. Must explain clearly to them to hear all their responsibilities. I hope that you will also do the same to me, to be my incarnation to propagate the Dharma, to give alms. Dhamma is more valuable than giving away a lot of money. Currently, you are actively studying the Dharma, some people want to leave home. That is a rare job that can be said to break records in America. There are many people like that who want to become ordained, want to be monks, to be bhikkhunis, it is impossible to think about. You must build the foundation and orderly and for the money of Buddhism in America, every individual should assume responsibility. Must think: "If we still have a breath, then this work of promoting Buddhism is also my responsibility!" If someone says they want a little bit of responsibility, then they should rejoice; shouldn't say I take the responsibility, you can't take it. So say: The responsibility to promote Buddhism is everyone's duty. Should not give up, you should stand up, make the uplifting of the Dharma as your task, that is the basic condition of the dharma. In addition, there is also Fearless. As Bodhisattva Quan The Am saving seven victims, detoxifying three, responding to two requests, are all non-fears. Fearlessness means that when others have fear and fear, about to die, you can show fearlessness, practice fearlessness to comfort them. What is called the fearless embodiment? If someone was caught in a fire, almost burned to death, surrounded by haze, who did not know where the northeast was, did not know which way to get out of the fire. At that moment you, regardless of your life, tried to jump into the fire and pull him out. This can be said to be not easy to do. That is called the life-saving discharge to save sentient beings, which is also Vo-free. Or if someone fell into the ocean, about to drown. You see that, regardless of your own life, immediately determined to jump into the water and pull him ashore. Not only fire water, until in the war, gunfire, someone was shot or wounded in the battlefield, life like a thousand pounds hanging hair. In the meantime, you energetically think nothing of your body, take care of your own life, jump into such danger to save people. Those are all called Fearless. Again, If someone encounters dangerous yokes such as imprisonment, robbery ..., a critical life, or has been in a coma, you can use clever means to save them from danger. danger, that is also the Chaplain. In short, even when people are in a situation of extreme fear, you use compassion, courage, promote a spirit of fearlessness, the spirit of not being afraid of anything to help all sentient beings. . You can also practice Fearlessness indirectly. Just like the Bodhisattva, he does not cultivate directly, but indirectly. How does he practice? He knew that if he wanted to cross a river, he needed a bridge. If he had no bridge, he could not cross the river. If he took the risk, it would be dangerous to his life. Then he used his strength, imitated the ancients, used a few boards or a wooden tree to form a bridge, keep people across the river in danger. Although there are bridges, it is not in danger, but if there is flood water, it will be dangerous to life. Like the old monk, when he descended from Cuu Hoa mountain to go to Cao Man pagoda to attend the meditation retreat, he remembered that there was a wooden bridge in Dinh Cang, so he followed the old way to go there and planned to cross the river, I would have doubted that bridge. just been swept away by the floodwaters. As a result, he fell into the river, stayed in the river until one day and night, after 24 hours, he was picked up by a fisherman. At that time the fisherman thought: - "Ah, this is a fortune! It is heavy to pull a big heavy fish." But when he pulled the net to look again, it turned out to be a monk fish! When I look closely, it is not the monk but the real Venerable. He has a robe, but he has no breathing. Nearby there is a small temple, The fisherman immediately ran to tell the teacher in the temple: - "Hey Venerable! Venerable Master! Today I went to the fishing net, I got a net with a monk, please join me there to see." The teacher in the temple thought: "That's really strange! Why would a fish net nets the Venerable Master?" The man and his fisherman came to see it, it was the Venerable Duc Thanh! Next they made the water in his stomach pour out, and the Venerable Elder came back to life. It's like a second life. After the Venerable Yu Yun was almost swept away by the water, he went to Cao Man temple to attend the retreat, then fell seriously ill. But Nguyet Lang Phuong was not aware, so he told him to be the representative of Phuong Phuong. Hao Lao thought to himself: "I am sick like this, how can I represent Phuong Phuong?" So he disobeyed. Gao Man pagoda's royal family style is very strict - if he is nominated and rejected, he will be charged with contempt. As a result, he was beaten with incense by the monk Nguyet Lang and had to starve from morning to night. You consider that Hu Lao can be said to be the most intellectual Chinese master, but he still suffers countless times. At Cao Man pagoda, people are looked down on and treated very coldly. Mr. Tri Dia Bodhisattva specializes in repairing bridges. When Mr. Yu Yun was coming to Yunnan, on the way to meet a Venerable monk every day from morning to night, he took a road to repair the road, without saying a word. It is also the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva Ground. Whenever he saw a tile or a bottle on the road, he picked it aside, making the road clean. He worked so hard all day that no one would pay for it! No one pays for it but keeps doing, do you feel stupid But because he did not work like that, he became a new practitioner of Tri Dia Bodhisattva, he realized the realm of the realm of not being rotten, the concept of not being rotten, and the unment of happiness. That is also the practice of fearlessness. The method of fearlessness is very large. In short, when people are afraid, you should give fearlessness. A most recent example, such as someone who has had nothing to eat for several days, is about to starve to death, in his heart very confused and afraid! Thinking: - "Must be starving to death! No money to buy food, go steal? To jail!" While they are in that dilemma, you meet them, you see them with yellow and thin faces, weak legs, unable to walk. At that time you ask them: - "How are you? Are you sick?" They will definitely answer: "Four or five days now I have no grain of rice in my stomach." You say, "Yes, Please come to my house for dinner! So go home and have dinner! "Their" go home "is not clear, do not know if it is their home? Or go home? In short, any place is fine. So people who haven't eaten yet are not sure if they invite you, so they say: - "Yes, I will go home to eat." You give them some clothes, people who have no home to live in, you give them a place to live, that is also called Fearless. China has a saying: "You can give hunger a time, you cannot give a hundred meals full." For a meal, you can, do not insist that every day to feed, no one can bear it. Because in this world everyone has to work, cannot be relied upon. If you have this thought: "I hope there is a Bodhisattva practitioner so that I do not have to work, until the meal, I only need to go to the house of some miserable Buddhist: I have no food now, please. You give me a little 'fearlessness' that makes me no longer afraid of hunger, no more suffering from hunger! " That is not proper. People accidentally fall into a reluctant situation to ask for help from others, but if you still have energy, you must try to be resilient, seek happiness for the world, not be consumed. material in this world. Everyone should help this world, don't rely on it. How is helping this world? It's good for everyone, do not ask everyone to do well for themselves. That is, I want to benefit others but do not want others to benefit me personally. You have the idea of ​​hoping for others to benefit yourself, that is to rely on without self-reliance. Everyone should work, try to be resilient, and should not rely on others. This is my thread. "Pure Consumption" is pure strength, that is, in all aspects of almsgiving, not in front of generals. That is pure contemplation without defilement. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara gives alms without accepting the general, all leave the general, so pure. If there is before the general, then not pure. Great wisdom: Wide is large, large is nothing comparable. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has vast wisdom and wisdom, all over all, teaching beings. Compassion and Compassion: You also have compassion. Someone misunderstood the meaning of the scriptures, so they said: "Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara often cries, not happy, because he is Bi Quan." This statement is too misleading! Compassion here is not sadness, but means mercy. Bodhisattvas towards all beings have true mercy. What is mercy? He used to think like this: - "These people are so pitiful! I use all means to educate them, but they are still not enlightened, still confused, so they are still crazy." He has compassion for sentient beings like that, g Bodhisattvas towards all beings have true mercy. What is mercy? He used to think like this: - "These people are so pitiful! I use all means to educate them, but they are still not enlightened, still confused, so they are still crazy." He has compassion for sentient beings like that, g Bodhisattvas towards all beings have true mercy. What is mercy? He used to think like this: - "These people are so pitiful! I use all means to educate them, but they are still not enlightened, still confused, so they are still crazy." He has compassion for sentient beings like that, gThis is Bi shop. Because He had compassion for sentient beings, he always wanted to save them. Like you can see a very smart and smart baby, everyone loves it. Why is it liked? Because the baby is pitiful. That kind of love is called Bi shop. It's not that Guanyin Bodhisattva is unhappy, even crying and sorrow all day long. If you want to follow the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, you should not cry, be sad and sad all day, but must "Always be happy without worry". His compassion is not a cry of pessimism, so it should not be confused. From or give joy, Bi or save suffering. "Compassion" is to eliminate suffering for sentient beings. "From the" is to give pleasure to sentient beings. This gift of joy is not a temporary joy but a permanent joy; it is a true joy, not a worldly joy. How funny thing? That is giving all the dharma, making sentient beings truly understand the Dharma but no longer doing crazy and painful things. That is called fun. What is crazy? Like someone who likes to drink, drink to get drunk, feel like he has turned into a fairy. Showing his "god", walking staggered, leaning back and forth, that's great! The mind is flooded, not even knowing anything. Do you think that's crazy? A fairly intelligent person, if dominated by alcoholism, anything can be done - killing people, burning a house would dare to do it. One day at the bus stop, an alcoholic guy asked me for money to buy alcohol. I recalled something that happened at a bus stop too. Now, there was a black man passing by, and he and I didn't know each other. Not knowing how he ran to pay homage to me, without saying a word, he got up and walked away. This person did not have to bow to me to ask for money, but only knelt down in front of many people, finished prostrating and gone. Do not know if he is a devil or a god? It's strange! I consider him not drunk, I wonder if it was a premonition that he came to pay homage to me or not? Most of the demons who saw me bowed down. But he, a black man respectfully bowed to me again, finished his bow, dared not look at me directly. I think demons must have entered him. Drinking alcohol is like that, smoking is even more crazy. Why? Your stomach has been clean for a while, but you make it dirty. Someone said: - "Mage, you are wrong. My stomach is full of feces and urine, not clean." That's right, your stomach is not clean. However, that uncleanness is not at all. Once you smoke, there will be a tar-like substance inside a chimney that looks like black plume. You suck it in your belly and let it out, but there's still something in your stomach, just because you can't see it, you don't know. If you can see it, you will know that when you inhale a cigarette, it's like spraying a mist on a mirror; sucks in one breath, thickens again. Your stomach was clean in the past, but you are sprinkling it with dust. Isn't that crazy? He also smokes drugs, when he smokes, he feels the spirit of excitement, even one step can go to heaven, like so on. When the effects of the smoke are over, the whole body feels drowsy, all over the body uncomfortable, do not know where to put this body to feel comfortable! But where to leave it? An annoyance makes them want to finish crawling to Hell, because they think it is not as unpleasant in Hell. So you see, with addiction already, even hell wants to stab, suffering so much. In addition, there are many insane issues. I hope smokers quit quickly, drinkers quickly leave out alcohol; the lazy person should be a little diligent, should not be lazy anymore; Those who work hard to save should not learn to be lazy, but should do many good things and more good deeds. If you don't do good deeds, then ultimately there is no merit. You have to do it. Germany is due to goodness. Any good deeds, naturally will have virtue, naturally not insane. You don't do any kind deeds, you can go out with your money to hang out, or buy unnecessary things, that's crazy. You put useful money where it is useful, called not crazy; you bring useful money to uselessness, that is insanity. Therefore, there are many things crazy. The Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara can show us crazy behavior so that we are no longer mad, causing us to attain true, eternal joy. That is called "From." Compassion is the saving of suffering, not only saves you from temporary suffering, but also saves you from eternal suffering. Just need you to generate confidence. When you have faith, Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva comes from you. If you do not have faith, the Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva's is no different to you like water and fire, cannot be in harmony. Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva treats you with immense compassion and you are cold, indifference cannot be reconciled with him. Indifference, indifference means not having faith. If you have faith, it will be compatible with Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva's Compassionate Contemplation. When you are right, you leave suffering and be happy. What is true suffering (real suffering)? Having defilement is true suffering. If you don't have defilements, you will be peaceful. Why are you not at peace? Because you have defilements. Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva can eliminate your defilements, allowing you to attain true bliss. Regularly vow to contemplate: We all want to constantly admire the face and compassionate appearance of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. Contemplation is often "contemplation" quietly gazing with reverence, the more you enjoy it; the object in front of the Bodhisattva, the year of which is sown close to the ground, respectfully respectfully respectfully. Bowing Great Compassion is a virtue that shows reverence to Avalokiteshvara. If you do not bow to Dai Bi Sam, it is just like Americans do not like to bow. Right to the very beginning, how can we call it believing in Buddha? Which Buddha do you believe in Buddha? Someone said, "I believe in my own Buddha." If you believe your own Buddha you cannot have "yourself". Since you cannot find your own Buddha, the Buddha outside you cannot recognize it. If we believe in our own Buddha, we cannot help but bow our heads. Bowing is sign of the most sincere respect. The top five bodies are also a polite virtue. If you do not even have a polite rule, what to say to believe in Buddha? Before there was a doctor, who trusted him a lot, treating him like Buddha. Again he told people not to bow to the Buddha. People worship Buddha, and he stood still like a log, but he himself did not know. Why? Because "the general is not yet." One who does not bow to the Buddha, the first is due to ego, feels he is very great, greater than Buddha, so there is no need to bow to the Buddha. Because he made a high dedication to self-esteem, seeing Buddha did not bow. So how to learn Buddha, believe in Buddha? Actually he did not understand anything about Buddhism, but wherever he went he said the Dharma, it was too damaging! Light and pure without ignoring Heaven, wisdom destroying darkness Or weathering fire Illuminating the whole world. These four verses are so magical that they cannot be said! How magical? These four verses can cure eye disease. If anyone whose eyes are sick, if he can regularly read these four verses, his eyes can be better. But the eye disease is good, but you need to generate wisdom yourself in order to fully heal. If wisdom has not arisen yet, even if it is temporarily cured, the future may return. In the book "Quan Yin Di Ky" there are records of healing of eye diseases. How can eye disease be treated? That is the world that cannot be thought of, thanks to the mighty god of Bodhisattva Quan The Am's blessing. In short, if you believe in the sutras, applying it to anything you will have extraordinary efficacy and effectiveness. If you don't believe it won't work. Therefore, in the vast sea of ​​Buddha Dharma, only faith can enter. Buddha's Dafa is like the boundless, boundless ocean, not knowing how far and wide? If you have faith, the Buddha can guide you in. Clean and innocent: How is it called "not idle?" It is dust, It is also impure. If you do not have that impure dust, you will naturally emit pure light. This pure light is for dust to say. Without dust there is pure light; on the contrary, if there is dust, there is no pure light. How is there no dust? That is, there is no delusion. If you have no delusions, you do not have dust. If you start up a delusion, there is a layer of dust. When you start two delusions, there are two layers of dust, three layers of dust. The more the hope, the thicker the dust. People who participate in meditation often say "The mind is aware of nature," the insight is that there is no dust, the view of the nature is to see the pure light. It takes no dust to see pure light. If there is dust, pure light cannot be seen. So " if you practice not in accordance with the Precepts of Wisdom, you are also walking on the dark path. On the contrary, you practice according to the Precepts of Wisdom, which is clarity. So "Wisdom destroys darkness," the sun of wisdom destroys all darkness. You want to go listen to the Dharma, which is clarity. You think, "I have heard the dharma for a few days, and I do not see anything good. This magician sits on the court, lectures back and forth only so many times. I have heard it many times, it's just teaching. People eliminate greed, anger and delusion only, cultivate the precepts of wisdom only. You are bored, do not want to hear that the darkness of money! On the contrary, it is not boring: "This Sorcerer preaches the Dharma, the more meaningful it is to listen, the more meaningful it is. Even the voice of this Master laughs, I finish listening to the sutras, There are still sermons left in my ears. During the day from morning to night, the voice of the Sorcerer is still heard in my ear. "That is clear light! On the contrary, I do not want to hear that the dharma is darkness. At this point, I remember something again. And in Hong Kong, there was a laywoman who came to see me. After meeting me, do you know what she is like? She stood and sat down and saw that I was giving a sermon. She said, "This Falun Gong magician must be a ghost! Why do I always see him? "She often sees the Sorcerer speak the Dharma, and thinks it is a ghost; then if she sees a ghost she must think it is Buddha! The layperson often sees me say he sees a ghost, She even cursed, and demanded to beat me. Not a few months later, she died from cancer. Actually I wanted to save her, but she kept calling me a ghost, so I also gave up. Today I suddenly recalled this story so I should tell you. Think about it, she met the Magician and thought it was a ghost; If she meets a ghost, what will she say? Therefore, in life, there are a lot of people who are fake in real life. The truth is fake. When meeting fake, just say it's real. Often it gets lost like that! The wisdom of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is like the sun, destroying all darkness. Destroying what dark? Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara "Truth not contemplation," radiates the darkness of View either, Tu or, witnesses Prajna. Ants or what? As the context of starting craving. Private or what? It is the delusion of initiation. Bodhisattva Quan The Am tu "Pure Pure Land," eliminate dark or Tran sa dark, proving to be liberated. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara tu "Wisdom insight," eliminate the darkness of ignorance or, prove the Dharma body. That is called containing all three virtues (Tam Duc Bi Tibet) - Bat elegant Germany, Liberation Germany and the Dharma body. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara by practicing the three shops (Truthfulness, Pure Innocence, Wisdom Availability) that witnesses the three virtues, except for the darkness of Kien Tu, Tran Sa and Ignorance, so says "Heavenly wisdom destroys toothpick." Hue here is the shop, and the main shop is Hue. Or dress fire: Bodhisattva Guan Yin can extinguish the three ears. Tam tai is three kinds of calamity - water ear, fire and wind ear. Water flooded with First Zen Thien, the second fire cremated Thien Thien, the wind swept the Tam Thien Thien. When there are three ears, water ear occurs first. Now, water came from nowhere - whether from the planet or the moon, or from the galaxies - and swirled up, flooding the sky; not only drowned mankind in the world, but also overwhelmed the Heaven of First Jhana. Why did God Sisters meditate in the water? That is because the natural people of the First Jhana have the water of afflictions, so they stirred up the water in the world. This is the first disaster. After the above catastrophe, this world, where it is unknown, only few people survived; but later the population increased and the world was met with fullness. Human is too crowded, the more complicated, the number of people creating karma also increases. Now, the second calamity is the calamity that happened. This calamity burned down to heaven II meditation; the celestial people in the second heaven Zen also could not bear this fire. Why happened this disaster? Because the natural people in the Second Jhana have the fire of afflictions, so the fire in their nature leads to the fire of the outside world. At that time, in the air suddenly appeared seven suns. A sun that one could not bear; Yet at that time the seven suns appeared at the same time, causing the whole mountain of mountains to be burned to coal, there was no place to cool, so mankind was burned to death. The sea dried up, turned into a continent; the continent turned into high mountains; High mountains turned into the sea. Between heaven and earth there are such miraculous events! It is "the burning fire of Second Zen." After the fire, over a very long time, the population in the world gradually increased, the human race returned and brought the victim to fullness. At that time, the third calamity was the typhoon that occurred. Not only the house of the citadel, the mountains of the mountain, the trees and herbs in the human world are swept away by the wind, blown to pieces, but even the Heaven of the Three Meditation cannot escape this calamity. Tam Thien Thien, the reason for having wind is because natural people in heaven Tam Thien has wind defilements. Since the wind in their nature is in contact with the wind and storm of the world, a wind arises. The first meditation has water disasters, the Second meditation has natural calamities, the Thien Thien has natural disasters - even natural people cannot avoid these calamities, so there is a verse that says: Six senses of the gods have enough five thoughts. Zen that realms still wind the ear Although cultivating to the African heavenly non-impossible, the Western past future. Why is it called five failure? The first impairment is the flower on the head withered. This flower is a flower attached to the hat of the masses. This flower is not something grown by people, but a natural flower used to decorate the hat. When the general has not yet appeared, this flower and jewelry will be healthy forever; When the general five failure appears, this flower wilt, signaling that the natural person is about to network. The second general is dirty clothes. The clothes of heaven are not like the clothes of the world. Wash once a week or every two weeks. If not, then not clean. Heavenly clothing does not need to be washed because it does not stain. When the general five failure appeared, the clothes of the god were naturally smeared with dirt, signaling that he was about to network. Just like us when we are about to die, the breath is not finished, but there is room on the body again. Average times cannot be born, until death is near, there are many places where maggots are born. People in the sky are dusted by the great karma. Why is there so much dust in our world? Kinh Lang Nghiem said, "Because our minds are too many delusions, so the dust of the world has also disappeared." Our illusions are no different from dust, so all the dust is created by our delusional mind. When heaven's five depraved general appears, so is the dusty clothes. The third impaired general is sweat under two armpits. Heavenly people are not like us, the body is often sweaty. They never sweat at all, but when the general appears, the armpits release perspiration. The fourth inference is the stench of the body. People in the sky all day long their bodies are fragrant. They do not need to apply perfumes or scent powder and still have a scent in the body emanating. When the pent-up appears, the body no longer smells, but produces a bad smell. Fifth inferred general is not liking his seat. Heavenly people are very self-centered, meditating all day long and nothing strange happens. When the general appears, they fidgety. Whenever I sit, I get up again, get up again, sit down, just stand and sit like that forever, a thought that loses perception, he lives in common. These six realms of Greed have the appearance of the five factors But in heaven, First Jhana has fire, Nhi Zen has water ear, Tam Zen has wind ears. Because the human beings of the Third Jhana have the wind of afflictions, so they are exposed to the wind of the world, creating wind and ears. Therefore, it is said: Six education gods are enough to meditate in the three realms of meditation, still wind the ear. Despite cultivating to the African sky, I can compare the Western past future. Even if you are born into the non-fictional heaven, enjoy the blessings of heaven for up to eight thousand great lives, but when the heaven is over, you will fall down to the human world, or fall into hell, the pretentious path or the animal path. It is not certain, so it is very dangerous. It is not equal to the practice of rebirth in the world of Dewachen, and then turn the boat from From again, like the Bodhisattva of Avalokiteshvara, to transform sentient beings, that is the best. Illuminating the whole world: The wisdom of Bodhisattva Guanyin shines brightly throughout the whole world. The realm that we currently live in is called the cohabiting Noble realm, also known as the "Co-resident Holy World," that is, the place where the holy world and the saint live together. The great wisdom that Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has cultivated, shines all over the world of Excessive means, the realm in which the Second rank remains. The vehicle is an ingenious means. Excessive, is only for the afflictions of this world that are still redundant. Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva is full of great compassion, and is projected around the world Seriously, that is, the world that the Bodhisattva lives. The Buddha's world in is called the Ordinary Light World, also known as the Ordinary Optical Pure Land. Great wisdom of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara shines throughout the pure Pure Land, the real realm of solemnity, the realm of residual means, the holy realm of the community. So it is said: "Illuminate the whole world." The Bi: The world thundered Heart Tu as big clouds of Dharma nectar raining down Fire of afflictions dissipates. These four verses praise the compassionate virtue of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara uses compassion as the dharma body. Where did this compassionate entity come from? The word "gender" that arises. Initially Bodhisattva Guanyin practice, by specializing in the practice of precepts, gave birth to the Law of Compassion, boundless conditions This Law is like the sound of thunder, all sentient beings are awakened by him, called "ringing out," deaf people can also hear, stupid people also hear. So the sentence "The Bi: the thunderous world" is praising the bodhisattva Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara can not think. Kindness is like a big cloud: Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva uses equal compassion, From the eyes to see beings. In this product also says: The Eye from looking at beings, the Sea of ​​Blessing contains infinite. Bodhisattva Guanyin has cultivated vast and boundless merit like the sea. With the concept of Compassion, He equally blesses all beings, this unconcerned realm is like a great cloud in the middle of nothing. French nectar rains down: Rain in the water of France nectar. Why is it called nectar? Nectar is the medicine of immortality in heaven. A person's life in heaven is so long, thanks to drinking this water of immortality. Someone said: - "Well, people take medicine too, no wonder people now want to get enlightened and take drugs." But heavenly medicine is natural, readily available, does not need to go through the dosage stages. Drinking immortal medicine is not old. The great colored clouds of Bodhisattva Guanyin rain down the nectar, rain down the medicine of immortality, causing people to leave suffering, sickness and death. The fire of afflictions dissolves: Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva destroys the fire and afflictions of every individual in the world. Why not become a Buddha? Because there is defilement. Why not enlightenment? Because there is defilement. Why are you not liberated, not truly free? Also because you have defilements. Defilements are also attachments. Attachment is another name for defilements. If you have attachments, you will not be liberated, because there are still disturbances. So where does attachment come from? It is due to selfishness, self-interest born. If you are a person who does not have self-interest and self-interest, what do you have to attach to? If you don't have selfishness, you don't have attachments either. Without attachments there is no defilement; without defilement then liberation. To be liberated is to be enlightened, and to become a Buddha. So our defilements are the worst, worst. But everyone can not let go of that bad thing, but often stick with defilements, walking and sitting together! Someone said: - "I'm usually happy, without defilements." If you have true joy, of course there are no defilements. If true joy is not attained and is reluctant to use the mind to create such joy, it is not true joy, because there is still inner defilement, one day it will outburst, like using a big rock on the grass, the grass does not grow, but when the rock is removed, the grass grows even better than before! Of the four vows, the first is: - "Beings of infinite vows." Why did Bodhisattva Guanyin want to come to this world? That is because "infinite beings take the pledge" there. - " do not know that it has just filled its stomach. And the water in the great sea, even a drop it drank does not end! - "Unscrupulous Buddhism takes an oath." There is nothing more noble than Buddhism, so each individual should take a vow to become a Buddha, not to consider himself too inferior, but to consider himself as a Buddha. But the hybrid is Buddha, not currently Buddha. In fact, we are originally fully capitalized with Buddhahood, the same Buddha is not different. But now, because we do not know how to practice, we do not have the bravery of the Three Bodies, Four Wisdom, Five Eyes, and Six Information like Buddha. So must issue four vows. Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, which is based on four cultural vows to educate sentient beings, so He rains nectar, making all sentient beings cool and free from defilements. That is called "the fire of afflictions dissolves. The Dharma End is ten thousand years. This period is not solid Meditation, nor solid Self-Temple, but solid Fighting. One country fights with another, one house fights with another, one person fights with another, animals fight with animals, demons fight with demons, everywhere is fighting. Why fight? Because it was the Dharma End, people only knew about the fight. But during the Dharma Ending period, there is also the Dharma period, while in the Dharma-ending period, there is also the Dharma period. Why say that? Because even though during the end of the Dharma end, it cannot be said that no one was involved in sitting meditation. As we are now busy, but we can still arrange time, early in the morning, in the evening, or at noon to use the practice of spiritual practice, meditate in the sitting meditation; that is the manifestation of the Dharma period. For example, at the end of the Dharma End, the Dharma is only a small part, less or less. So, at the end of the Dharma end, we can also lecture on sermons, and some people can arrange time in busy, in hundreds of busy things, even forget to sleep and eat to listen to the sutras, which is also called Dharma. in the Dharma End. Currently, everyone is proposing the building of the pagoda, the building of the ashram, which is also the work of the Dharma Statue. So in the Dharma Ending period, there is also the Dharma Statue period, and also the Dharma-Dharma period. During the statue of the Dharma period, there is also the Dharma-ending period, and also the Dharma-Dharma period. Because in the time of the statue of Dharma, there was a place where there was no pagoda, some people did not believe in the Dharma, so it was different from Dharma end. So, in the period of the statue of Dharma, why had the temple built? Leaving the temple away can cause people to gather together to make use of the spiritual practice, so it is also the Dharma period. Then in the Dharma period there is also the period of Dharma Statue and Dharma End. People in the Dharma era are taking meditation practice, of course it is the Dharma period. But there are times when the temple is built like in the statue of the Dharma. At the time of the Dharma, not everyone studied Buddhism. Someone learns a little of the Dharma and then refuses to study, and doesn't pay attention to study it, this is the Dharma End in Dharma. So, in each period there are enough Dharma, Dharma Statue and Dharma End. Now is the time of the End of the Dhamma struggle, that we can practice the Dharma, make the Buddha Dharma forever live, practice the cause of the Dharma, recite the Surangama mantra every day, so they I help this world! Why? Because if there is no one else in this world chanting the Lang Nghiem mantra, the world will soon go to destruction. At that time, all demons, demons, and hope, all appeared. Currently why do not they dare to appear? Because in this world, there are still people who recite the Surangama mantra, practice 42 Thu Eye of uncle Dai Bi, practice the method of thousands of eyes, so the devil loves to avoid fear, dare not appear and rage. "Litigation" is a litigation. Litigation means bringing each other to the court to argue what should be. Arguing, you need to invite a lawyer. There are a number of lawyers who can make reasonable things unreasonable, unreasonable things make sense. That is called the crazy town. Several months ago, it was reported that a woman had murdered her husband, but she had too much money, she promised a lawyer that, if she argued that she was acquitted, she would pay a sum of money. very happy. The lawyer knew she was the one who killed her husband, but before the court, she used all her excuses, bend the truth to make her excused. Oh! Do you say that with justice or not? Only money alone, even killing people is not guilty! That is the litigation. Have not been guilty, then do not have to pay the penalty. Isn't that true that there is no truth in the world? In the past, the court was meant to find the right, but when there was a lawyer to defend, then to have morality also turned into immoral, unethical also turned into moral. Do you consider this world a dark, dark world? "To the point of view": Going to the main place is to go to court, to the court to find the right, to see whose reason is full, who is not guilty. But when you get there, even the most complete reason for you, if you don't have money, then you will be guilty. And your reason is incomplete, you are not moral, and you have money, you are innocent. So this world is dominated by money, burying people's conscience. In the battlefield fear: Fear and fear in the front of the battlefield, as is the situation in Vietnam (1968). At that place, though full of fear, but thanks to the power to recite Guanyin, if you recite "Namo Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva," then the resentment will disappear, all the resentment will be gone. The fighting in the door and in the military battle was all caused by the resentment of many lives and lives, so they gathered in one place to repay the retribution; But if you recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, such karmic retribution can be reduced, weight becomes light, and light becomes none. If you don't recite Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, these problems will become serious. If you recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, it will be reduced. So the realm of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara could not be thought of, Not ordinary people can know. During the Second World War, in Shanghai, there was a layman named Phi Fan Canh who recited the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara daily. During the Sino-Japanese War, Shanghai was often bombarded by Japanese aircraft. This layperson often moved his house. Once he felt his place was in danger of being bombarded, he moved to another place. He had just left when the place was indeed bombed by Japanese aircraft. In the second place, for four or five days, he felt uneasy again, and moved to the Concession. In Shanghai, there was an area hired by Westerners from China, so the Japanese did not dare to harass the Conquerors. After moving to Concession, he felt unsettled, so he wanted to leave. But the periphery of the Conqueror was surrounded by electricity, he could not move out. In the midst of a dilemma, unable to decide, Suddenly a child said to him: -Mau run away, behind there are Japanese troops there! Now he saw on the grid there was a hole two feet wide that could fit a person through. Seeing the baby going through that hole, his whole family: the mother, the wife, and the children all followed the gap out. Seeing them, the Western soldiers defending there, feeling very strange, wondering why they got out! Until they found the baby again, they couldn't find it. Review that the grid is still intact, with no two square feet gaps. They feel very strange! From there they went all the way to Suzhou, escaping from the accident of the war. This proves that the realm of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is incredibly high, hard to think about, people cannot understand. In all situations, Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva always protects the person reciting his name. Therefore, each of us should have firm faith, earnestly recite the title of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. "The resentment," as I said above, is the nation fighting with the nation, the family fighting with the family, the individual fighting with the individual, the demon fighting the devil. This is because the karma of sentient beings senses such situations. Nowadays, there are many countries, but do not assume that the people in those countries are human. There are places where the rats become swarms teamed up to become a human being to become a nation. There are many bullfrogs who also fall into human beings and become a nation. This spring (1968) was reported that there were a few thousand bullfrog groups in a country that committed suicide. Why? Because there are too many bullies in that country, they kill themselves so that they can fall into human beings. This fact proves that the majority of the people in this country are reincarnated bullfrogs. Looking closely, you will see that their appearance is somewhat similar to a bullfrog. You did not pay attention so you do not know it! The people of each nation are usually of the same species. That kind of breed, most of its life in the past were animals, and now together, reincarnated as people in a country. This spring, I preach about this ethics, someone asked: - "What are the majority of Americans falling? Is it because of what kind of this nation?" I replied, "People and animals are both, because the American people are made up of people from the countries of origin, so it is a collection of people and animals." Really, it's not a joke. If we can declare the Five Eyes (Buddha, Dharmakaya, Wisdom Eye, Heavenly Eyes), then we know that people in this world are not all human beings. that every species has. How can I see it? If you have a Buddha eye, open the eyes of wisdom, but want to know what that person was in the previous life or what the previous life did, then look at the shadow (shadow) behind him; because the shadow of the previous life still follows this life. In the past, if they were human, in this world their shadow was human. If they were animals, their shadow was animals. If they were demons, then their shadow was demons. Only one who can open the Five Eyes can see clearly. If the Five Eyes cannot be opened, it will be impossible to distinguish. So if you meet someone, don't assume it is human. How to know this problem? If you have divine eyesight, it is easy to know. As long as you try to make use of your spiritual practice, you want to know what you want. Currently in the other country (it's not like I cursed people), the majority of people are rats turned out. But in it there are many rats, there are also many people, many demons and animals. In short, every country has horses, cows, goats, pigs, dogs of all kinds. People also turn out of these beings. This ethics is so wonderful. Ordinary people do not believe this because they do not. If you want to prove this, you need to really make use of the practice of attaining divine powers. Only then did he say: - "Before, there was a Magician who talked about this ethics, it's not wrong at all! How did he say it all like this?" Dieu sound, Avalokiteshvara Pham, Hai Trieu Yin Than the world language So we must recite. Dieu Yin, Avalokiteshvara: The previous poem recited: "Pure innocence, Guán is vast wisdom, Compassionate and From the shop, Often contemplate" is talking about the word "shop." Now let's talk about the word "sound." The word "sound" is magic sound, in the world. The word "sound" in Avalokiteshvara is "sound" very wonderful, this wonderful sound is Quan Yin. Pham Yin, Hai Trieu Yin: The sound of Bodhisattva Quan The Am is not only miraculous but also pure, as well as the sound of the water when the sea is calm. The sea at certain times emits tidal sounds (rising or falling tide). The pure sound of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva as well as the sound of the ocean tide, the sound of the tide. More than worldly sounds: The sound of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva surpasses all other sounds. Therefore, we must recite often: For that reason, each of us must recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara regularly. Mindfulness not to be suspected of being suspected of Quan Yin Pure Land In suffering, death yoke Help, as a place to take refuge. Mindfulness not to be suspected: When we recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, we should never be suspicious. Do not think like this: "Is mindfulness useful? Isn't reciting the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara without meaning?" Every day recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara and most should not be skeptical mind. Even in a single thought should not arise doubting mind, but should generate firm belief. The holy level of Quan Yin: Bodhisattva Guan Yin is the pure saint. In suffering brain death yoke: Ace means yoke. This is about when you have afflictions, sufferings or are in danger, your life is like a curtain to hang a bell. Help, make shelter: At that time, Guanyin Bodhisattva will act as your guardian. You can bring your body, mind, and nature to Him, He will definitely protect and help you. Having all the merit from the Eyes of Tuism, the beings of the Sea of ​​great blessings are unpredictable. Therefore, they must pay homage. Enough of all merit: Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva is complete with all the miraculous powers, there is no merit that he is incomplete. How many miraculous powers can not think that His table has enough. The Eye of beings: Guanyin Bodhisattva always uses the eyes of a good father to look at beings. Beings, regardless of whether they are at fault, have karma or not, He has the same mercy to save. The sea of ​​immeasurable blessings: Because Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara uses equal pronouns to save sentient beings, his blessings are boundless, like an immeasurable deep sea. So we must pay homage: Because Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara has full merit, merit, so each one of us should pay homage to Him. So the chanting part is finished. We have the opportunity to hear the entire Chinese Sutras, which is very rare. Nowadays, let alone in America, even in China, it is not easy to hear the entire Chinese Sutras. In Hong Kong, Taiwan may have that opportunity, but also very difficult. Currently we are living in America, living very well, but listening to the Chinese Dharma is a very lucky thing. You come to listen to the sutras, the invisible help in this world. We preach here, the whole world is full of good omen everywhere. Wherever there is a legal conference to teach the sutras, Thien Long Bat Bo will come to support the ashram. We all have this opportunity, we all have great goodness. If there is no good root, wanting to hear cannot come. When we want to come, without this evil being born there is also another evil arisen; in short, it leaves you with no way to hear the sutras. We can now listen to the dhamma, the merit is boundless, impossible to end. Come to hear the sutras, each individual can have merit. At that time, Tri De Bodhisattva immediately from the seat to get up, came to tell the Buddha: "In the world, if any being hears this Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, he will know the self-contained and powerful The common god of his manifestation, must know that person of great merit. " When the Buddha said this Prussian product, among them, there were eight, four thousand beings that generated the mind of the Abhidhamma Pitaka La Tam Mieu Tam Bodhi. At that time, that is when the Buddha finished speaking the chant. The Geographic Bodhisattva is Tri Diem Bodhisattva in the Sutra Pitaka said. This Bodhisattva in countless eons ago was an illiterate, uneducated person. Although he had not learned the Dharma, his behavior was very close to the Buddha Dharma. He is in very good health; His strength is not only very strong but also infinite. Things ordinary people could not lift, he could lift; what people could not carry, he could carry; what people can not do, he can do. What does he do? He repaired roads, repaired the path. Sometimes, repair the bridge. Can't go up a hill, he helped people push the cart. Some people were carrying things very hard, so he carried them for them. But he did not bid, he did not ask for wages. Over a long period of time, he kept on doing so many hard things. Once, I met Buddha Phu Xa Lu; The Buddha asked him: "Why did you fix the road like that?" He replied: "The road is smoothing the road so that people can easily walk." Buddha Phu Xa Lu said: "You only cover with roads and remove the roots according to the top! This is using elaborately on the top, only practicing the skin. "The Bodhisattva Tri Diem said:" Then what is it not to use the skin? What is the use of inner effort? "Buddha of the Buddha said:" If you want to fix it with this way, you should correct it with your mind first. Why is this road not flat? The world has high mountains, great geography, and the sea, because human hearts are not equal. There are high mountains in the heart, so the land is not equal. If the mind is calm, then the world is nowhere to be equal. The Bodhisattva is therefore called the Bodhisattva Tri. The Bodhisattva, previously explained, is sentient enlightenment, who is enlightened to sentient beings. enlightenment in living beings. This Bodhisattva, immediately from his seat, stood up to the Buddha and said: - "The Buddha, if there is any being who hears the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara with self-contained deeds, and disciplines. manifest his miraculous power - thirty-two Candidates, four kinds of Fearlessness, nineteen means of sermon - then know that he has merit is not less. amount. " No less means more, no quantity, infinite quantity. When the Buddha Shakyamuni performed saying the Sutras of the United States, referring to the Prussian product, in the mass there were eighty-four thousand beings all generating the mind of the Supreme Noble Truth of Righteousness. What is "eighty four thousand beings?" Eighty four thousand beings are also eighty four thousand defilements. Each of our defilements is a being. More, In each of us there are eighty four thousand microorganisms, these microorganisms are "bacteria." In each of us there are coincidences. We humans are a large parasite, in that large parasite there is a small worm. In the blood, in the meat, in the organs, it is not known how many small worms. How do we live? That is just large worms that feed small worms, and small worms help big worms. What are you giving people? Inside the body there are infinite numbers of microorganisms, each microorganism is a living being. So how many microorganisms are there? Countless many! In short, as many as eight and four thousand. Actually, not only are there eighty four thousand, but ten thousand eight thousand is also not certain. So in each of us the nature of the complete eighty four thousand beings. But from the outside, Then the beings in this world are not only eighty four thousand! Eighty four thousand beings in the conference is also eighty four thousand thoughts in each individual's mind. The mindfulness of arising and passing away, the mindfulness of not stopping, the thought of being born is a being, the thought of cessation is also a being; There are eight, four thousand beings, arising and passing away, without leaving the nature. Eighty-four thousand beings all generate the Equality mind, the mind has nothing equal, nothing comparable, that is, A-nums-multi-la Tam-mieu Tam-bodhicitta. Anuttarasamyak ---- sambodhi is Sanskrit for Tam-mieu Tam-bodhi (Anuttarasamyak ---- sambodhi). A means Vo, nậu-multi-la means Upper, Tam is Chanh, Mieu is Dang, Bodhi means Giac, combined together is the Supreme Chief is the Chief Justice. Supreme is nothing higher. Righteousness is equal to Buddha. Right enlightenment is the enlightenment of Buddha. That is the result of enlightenment equal to Buddha, is also the mind to become Buddha. There are eighty four thousand beings who develop mind into Buddha. Do develop the mind to become a Buddha and then realize the Buddhahood. Right at the conference, eighty-four thousand sentient beings heard the Prussian product all generate the mind of the Supreme Right of Right Awareness. This is a very victorious cause and condition. We are currently teaching Prussia, in this lecture hall of Buddhism there are more than twenty people listening. These twenty people, in each of them, there are eighty four thousand beings. You can try to see how many want? But how many of these are the ones that generate the Supreme Righteousness Mindfulness? I believe that even though they do not generate that mind, the vast majority also develop the mind to become Buddha. At the Phap Hoa Assembly, people who listen to the Lotus Sutra, are likely to become Buddhas in the future. We have now heard of the Universal subjects of Bodhisattva Guan Yin, all because the past life has cultivated an infinite number of benign roots, so now we have the predestined relationship to gather in one place to study. Buddhism. It is an unthinkable magical realm. A-nau-multi-la Tam-mieu Tam-bodhi is the highest result, that is, enlightened Buddha. The word above is translated as the Supreme Noble Enlightenment. Righteousness is saying that the person is enlightened, has righteousness. The second yana La Han was enlightened Righteousness, but has not yet reached the Chief Justice. Who then gets Chief Justice? The Bodhisattva is a person who is Righteousness in return. Righteousness with Buddha, should be called Equal. Righteousness is La-Han, Chief Justice is Bo-slaps. Bo-slaps can become Chief Justice, but not yet Supreme. La-Han can become Right Awakening, but cannot become Righteousness. Because the Bodhisattva is a righteous noble, above you have even higher order. Buddha calls the Supreme Sergeant, that is, there is no one higher than Buddha. The Supreme Chief Justice is the perfect Bodhisattva, on the place of No-possession, there are three rounded senses, all the virtues, there is no higher Chief Justice. Only the Buddha is qualified to receive that title, in addition to the Bodhisattvas, La-Han can not be compared with this highest attainment. This highest flavor is also from the lowest position. Cultivation Dao, you need to note one thing is not born complacent, high tribute to self-esteem. That is from the lowest place to attain such highest attainment! Lao Tzu Dao Kinh said: "A noble being as good as water, water is good for all things without fighting, in that everyone is blaming." Good people are like water, skillful to benefit all things without fighting. Wrestling is about flying animals and plants. All four species (fetus, ovule, low, chemical) need water to nurture, bathe, but water itself never thinks: - "Hey, everything you all need me to bring benefits. It's useful, you asked me for help to become it! " What is no painting? No painting means not counting the merits, bragging to everyone: "All these things are done by me, this merit is due to my new achievement, this temple was repaired by me, the other bridge is mine." There is no such mind, that is not contested. The country is not self-interested nor self-interested, so Lao Tzu says: "A good man should learn according to the nature of the country, the country is good for all things without fighting," no matter the merits, no competition, no competition. "Where people criticize," water is low, not high. Someone said, "Why isn't water up high? When it rains, If you want to become a Buddha, you must first be good sentient beings. What is being good beings? It is doing anything towards good, not towards evil. That is called "Choosing good will follow, unwholesome then fix." The path of good will follow, the path of unwholesome is corrected. Must correct errors, renew yourself. Must lead the way forward, not the way back. If the religion is right, then go forward, if not, then back behind if not in accordance with the religion. There is such a new can prove A-nou-multi-la Tam-mieu Tam-Bodhi. The miracle of the Noble Phantasmodic is extremely infinite, it is not possible to say it all in a short time. Later there is the opportunity to study more carefully. This Saturday is the day of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. We have finished listening to the Noble Phantasms, know the miraculous magic of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, until that day we will make offerings to Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, reciting his name together bowing to Dai Bi Sam, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara's prayers display any thoughtful use. Anyone who has any questions, can silently pray in his heart to ask the blessings of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. I believe that Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva will definitely bless your contentment. The Sutras are Buddhas of the Dharma, the one who hears the Sutras is somewhat to become a Buddha, so this opportunity is very difficult.END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.18/2/2021.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.
