(XNUMX) The three roots of the Pure Land Method have been collected by Lidun (the master of the draft has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!) 

Respected abbot Master Yamato is compassionate, dear fellow practitioners, good evening everyone! 

Amitabha! 

Today’s karma is very rare. On January 2011, 1, the beginning of this new year, thanks to the mercy of Master Yamato, he enlightened the public to give a lecture on the essentials of this sutra of immeasurable life. This can be said to be the most auspicious event in the new year. .Because we enlighten this sutra, the future result is the ultimate result of getting away from suffering and becoming a Buddha in one's life. This is a superb result.So, this Dependent Origination is the most auspicious cause and condition in the world.So today is the first day of our lecture. This time we have arranged a ten-day course for the Fa conference. We hope that during these ten days, we can explain the essence of the whole immeasurable life sutra to everyone clearly, although it is only a short one. In ten short days, but the sentient beings who have matured for good roots and merits are likely to enter this state after listening to one or two lectures.

And truly, we can have absolute confidence in our rebirth as a Buddha in this life, but what kind of person is this?It doesn’t have to be an old cultivator. In our method, all three roots are collected. As long as people with good roots and good fortunes are able to enter this realm at any moment, it’s not difficult to do so, because This is completely blessed by Buddhism, not on our own practice of Kung Fu!If you practice Kung Fu!Everyone has no share!It’s so simple to rebirth to the kingdom of Buddha and rebirth to the fruit of Buddha in one's life!It is precisely because it is XNUMX% blessed by Buddha that everyone has a share.

What we have to do is to mature the good roots, the merits, the cause and conditions, and truly understand how to use the teachings in the Pure Land Sutra. We really find a shortcut to interact with Amitabha. This is where we really need to work hard.Of course, there is another way to recite Buddhism honestly. If you can truly be honest, then faith and willingness is the so-called Tao and wonderful coincidence at the moment, but most people are not honest!It is hard to recite the Buddha every day, because the troubles are so heavy, there is no way to be honest.Therefore, we have to understand, through the theoretical methods that are told to us in the Scriptures, after we have truly mastered it, this letter is willing to rise from the heart, and then we can say that we are sure of our rebirth right now.The next chanting!That is a kind of enjoyment!No pressure!The more you read, the more you like it, the more you read, the more relaxed you are, and the more diligent you unknowingly, the way you show it, the way it is honest is the way it is diligent.

However, these key differences are very subtle. They are all about the heart. If you don’t know how to practice the real practice with your heart, it’s okay if you don’t know how to recite the Buddha faithfully, but you’re afraid of being dishonest, so many people have not had the confidence or the faith to practice for a long time Faxi means that on the one hand, it is unable to master the method of intention, on the other hand, there is no way to be honest. This is a middle-low rooted person, probably because there are more middle-rooted people. They look smart, but they know that the troubles are very heavy. .Our true and familiar beings are those who go to the roots and benefit the wisdom. If you want to go to the fools, the fools are the honest people we just talked about. Many old bodhisattvas are honest. What are you telling him? The Buddha tells him only. Accept all, he didn't doubt what the Master said, and did exactly as he did.That kind of person can definitely achieve it, and there is another kind of person who is rooted and wise, that is, can really master the correct starting point through the study of the classics. 

Respectful excerpts from disciple Shuyuan

(XNUMX) The correct mentality of listening to the scriptures and the law (this master has not yet finalized the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!) 

Of course there is nothing wrong with it!You must know how to recite the Buddha's name with your heart, and understand the true meaning of the sutras with your heart instead of just learning the name and form, so in these ten days, you should study hard and truly grasp the essence of the meaning. In the future, you will continue to cultivate this. The meaning of the name and appearance of the great sutra is also a kind of cultivation, and when you listen to it, it will feel very flavorful. If you truly grasp the essence of this sutra, you will be able to have Dharma joy, and it will be especially easy when listening carefully. Understand, so, we fellow practitioners here!Especially the fellow practitioners who can come to listen to the lecture today are really very rare!Really have a big blessing.Because today is number one!Many fellow practitioners are still on holiday!It is still based on the world law. This is a karma, and the rewards are not great enough. Only those fellow practitioners we really come to listen to!It is true that the roots of sexual maturity are so great that they are the masters of cultivation, and the karma is already sufficient, some people want to come but can't come!This is due to the lack of karma.

In particular, we have Master Yamato here to lead people to practice spiritually. We have also walked through many dojos both at home and abroad. In Malaysia, where we are near, there are nearly a hundred societies and so many places. !Have a look!At best, the status of their studies can only be said to attract some kindergarten children. They have not yet officially enrolled!Because of so much to learn!Of course, the old monk’s magic weapons are abundant, but the old monk’s teachings are very broad, profound, and extensive, ranging from the superficial to the Huayan realm.Generally, if you study on your own, it is not easy to master that level.So usually, you have to invite a master to explain it, and the opportunity is not always there. Even if there is, what mentality should be used to listen to the scriptures?Many fellow practitioners in the study, including the president, are the same. He still assumes that he is supporting the mage to repeat the lecture. With such a mentality, if the mentality is not well established, your Fa will not be able to enter your mind.

On the contrary, if you really have the right mentality to seek Dharma, even if you are facing a very bad situation, even flowers, grass, trees, and wicked people can achieve our enlightenment!No matter how bad the master speaks, you will be enlightened if you are not careful. It really depends on our own heart rather than the outside world.So many dojos seem to be very lively and prosperous through many activities, but in fact, like ours, Yuanyuan Temple is led by the long-term diligence and diligence of Master Yamato!There are not many such causes, and what’s even more rare is that our fellow practitioners here can feel Master Yamato’s motivation, and his sense of personal practice of this virtue. He can really grit his teeth and study intensively here. It's not easy!I heard that there are often day and night diligent activities, long-term Baguanzhai and other activities, which are not available in other places, and it is really not easy to look like this over the years.So I think we are studying here!It should be said that people who have entered elementary school up to the level of university, university is like our president, I heard that the Tibetan scriptures can be recited in XNUMX minutes. It's not easy!

Respectful excerpts from disciple Shuyuan

(XNUMX) Fuhui double cultivation of self-interest and altruism (this is the master of drafting has not yet set the school, if there are typos, please report the error, the merits are boundless!)

The general guardian is just for blessing!Really tell him to practice!Sorry!You always have to work hard!This is not easy!So Fuhui double repair!This is also rare. In this situation, if there is no real leader in this situation, and if you take personally to teach the virtues to reform, I am afraid that even if you have the intention to live and die, you will not be able to spend a long time!It’s not that simple to work hard at first!You can’t pass the drowsiness level alone. If you don’t believe me, you can close the door and recite the day and night Buddha to see. Fishing starts at ten o’clock in the evening. It’s not that simple, so the Dharma predestined here is really true. It's very rare, the fellow initiates are very blessed.

So recently, I came here yesterday!I also heard that our Master Dahe responded to the old monk’s advocacy and encouraged everyone to be very active. Not only our fellow practitioners here, but in other places, he also actively encouraged everyone to follow the old monk’s advocacy and implement the work of Liuhejing. .So from the last time I came here in June to make dharma with you for the first time, until now, I have had several contacts and conversations with Master Yamato and various observations of the actual conditions of common practice. I can indeed feel it. Master Yamato followed the teachings of the old monk very much, and showed a diligent and true manner. This, many of our monks who are learning, may not be comparable.This is really not easy, so this is completely due to the Dharma correspondence, and I have also developed the Bodhi heart to be self-interested and self-interested.

Well, I see such a situation, and I’m also here to talk to you about the implementation of Liuhejing. Now the old monk has prescribed this homework for everyone. This is the matter, because the old monk wants to In the face of so many people and fellow practitioners of different roots in the world, the curriculum must be in line with everyone’s universal ability to sustain. Therefore, first set out a set of hard work methods for you. It's not difficult!You usually work so diligently every day. These related courses are very familiar, but I remember that this activity was initiated by the Hong Kong Buddhist Foundation, probably in the first few months.

I also visited Hong Kong in October last year and stayed there for four days. Not long ago, I saw them, an old monk, and a few lay teachers. They were making some remarks about the implementation of Liuhejing. problem.Including Master Wudao, Dr. Zhong, Teacher Cai, Hu Xiaolin, etc., they all have published some conversations, so they also revealed during their conversations, actually!These homework has this advocacy, is there a real way to do it?There is no way.Matters can be done and should work hard. Old monks often encourage everyone to use diligence and diligence through different skills.But whether they really reach the standard of Liuhejing in front of them, according to them, there is no way!Because we ordinary people are greed, anger, ignorance and ignorance. When Liuhejing truly achieves Consummation, we have become holy. 

Respectful excerpts from disciple Shuyuan

(XNUMX) Achieve merits by taking the precepts with your heart (this time the master of the draft has not yet finalized the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

However, we should indeed move towards this goal. So when this activity was first promoted, I was in Malaysia for the first two months to establish Dharma affinity with you. Many fellow practitioners were worried, alas!Especially Master Yamato!I also very kindly persuade everyone to sign it!Be sure to actively participate and work hard.Then everyone wants to participate, but I'm afraid that I can't do it. The inner struggle has reached a state where quite annoyed, see!Oh!How to do?I told them, I said: "The old monk said that you must sign this Liuhejing. After signing, you must try your best to do it. Don't sign and sign casually. Then promote it. If you sign and sign casually, then promote this activity. It doesn't mean anything!" But did you say that you must do it XNUMX%? What if you can't do it?Will go to hell?Not so much!So don't get upset when you hear something. 

This matter is just like receiving the Five Precepts. Many veteran practitioners have not yet asked to receive the Five Precepts for XNUMX to XNUMX years, XNUMX to XNUMX years!Don't talk about the bodhisattva vows, just because you are afraid of breaking the vows.I said that you are afraid of breaking the precepts. Wouldn’t it be possible that if you violate these five precepts, you will have no rewards?He said that at least one sin of breaking the precept was missing!In fact, the point is not to break the precepts or not to break the precepts. There is no one in this world who does not make mistakes. The point is that you feel the precepts. The first thing is that once you take your heart, you get half of your merits!If you haven't done the merit, you will get half of it. Don't let this half of the merit go for nothing. You will have merit when you put your heart into it. You should study diligently!Next, you will have a guardian of the precepts. After receiving the five precepts, there will be twenty-five guardians of the precepts, who will be by your side at any time to help you keep the precepts well.You can repent if you do it accidentally.Especially when we recite Buddhism, the five sins and ten evils of the Buddha's name "Namo Amitabha" can be eliminated, so don't be afraid.

The same goes for Liuhejing.After you sign, you must have a sincere heart when you sign, and you really want to work hard to do it. In case it is inconvenient to go out sometimes, you can open the door!When you come back, you can make up as much as you can. It really accumulates too much. If you can't make up, then you can ask for repentance!There is a lot of karma, and there is no way to achieve Consummation. At that time, you have another kind of alertness, that is, a deeper awareness that you really have a lot of karma!Then when the time is right, you will bring up a great confession heart and a brave heart. That is also another form of blessing. Therefore, fellow practitioners must not have an ostrich mentality. Anyway, if you bury your head in the sand, the world will be peaceful. There is no such thing. .If you can do your best, try to do your best. If you can't, you can ask for repentance, and then try to make up for it. You need to use this kind of heart!Whether facing Liuhejing's homework or asking for precepts, it is the same.The more you evade, you only lose your chance to grow diligently and bravely, and often you will retreat if you do not advance.

If we are not diligent, we are naturally susceptible to the influence of the five desires and fall into karma. Therefore, there is only one way for fellow practitioners to choose diligent study. There is no second way. The world is too bitter.But you don't need to be scared by the word diligence. We can find a way in diligence, practice happily and happily, and get the joy of the Dhamma.Depending on your willingness, physical strength, and mental strength, under a standard that you can bear, tomorrow will be better than today, the day after tomorrow will be better than tomorrow, and progress day by day, this is diligence!Didn't tell you to compare with a saint!If you want to compare with Yamato Master!It may not be comparable, it may be very stressful, Yamato Master is so old, people can mention such a diligent and courageous heart, we all sigh, we have never had any hardship since we were young, and the females are also relatively weak in physical strength. 

It is true that after a long time of training, the Fa will continue to run around all day long, and it will lead you to practice together, this kind of behavior!Oops!We are really ashamed in our eyes!We also have to emulate the mind. We can improve as much as we can according to our own abilities, and it is not that everyone will reach the same state immediately.Buddhas and bodhisattvas will not be so cruel to us, but hope that we can be happily happily and happily every moment, and it is indeed possible to grow up without pressure. 

Respectful excerpts from disciple Shuyuan

(XNUMX) The Pure Land Method is the Anle Method (The master of drafting has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, and the merits are boundless!)

In particular, our Pure Land Method is the method of peace and happiness. If we practice other so-called eighty-four thousand methods, all methods other than the Pure Land Method will all rely on self-reliance. Can bear it, the Bible says that if someone slaps you on the right cheek, you have to take the left cheek and beat him again.That's how you want to practice!Grind your habits and cultivate your patience, that's very bitter!If you want to sleep today, you can’t sleep and be patient. If you’re hungry, you must be patient. If I don’t eat for lunch, you must be patient. You must be patient with everything.When there was no effort at the beginning, then it must be very hard to study, and the habit of having fun with us has to be confronted and transformed, and the process of transformation is very bitter.

But our Pure Land Method is different. It is completely complete and you can practice and learn very happily right now. If fellow practitioners truly master the Pure Land Method, they will definitely be able to recite the Buddha happily at every moment, automatically and spontaneously.And naturally like to cut off evil and cultivate good, take the precepts as a teacher, and keep precepts to recite the Buddha. This is to transform the mind and body into softness. Why can they be softened?Because receiving the blessings of the Buddha power, this method is completely dependent on the blessing of the Buddha power, so if we know how to master this correct practice, instead of applying the practice of other sects and self-reliance to our practice. It can also be done as a difficult practice, so it can be achieved. It is difficult!And during the process, you won’t get the joy of the Fa. There may be a little bit of Fa-joy. This is a kind of Fa-joy that comes after you have really survived, and after a lot of hard work has passed, but you will learn very hard.So since we are!We are so lucky to be able to meet the easiest, easiest, and happiest practice to learn. If we can truly grasp it, then it will be truly blessed.

So just now, we were talking about Liuhejing's relationship with our Fa-study. If you do the practice on the matter, you do it every day according to the homework arranged by the old monk. This is called the practice on the matter. "Gradually repair" this is also done every day.But there is a quicker way to cultivate from theory and from the heart, you can pause in the moment, and then you can pause in the circle to complete the proof. This is the special aspect of the Pure Land Method.When we receive the blessing of Buddha power at a moment, and our body and mind have a XNUMX degree transformation, Liuhejing can be said to be close to perfection at the moment.In theory, it can be close to Consummation, so the key is to know how to sense the blessings of Buddhism.Once the blessing of Buddhism enters our hearts, it can be said that all dharma is not only six harmony respects, including our faith in rebirth, including the right and wrong of all human affairs, and all concerns in the world. You can all be resolved drastically.This is unbelievable, and the proof is complete.

Our method, this is the realm of the Buddha!It is the Four Unobstructed Dharma Realms taught by Huayan Sutra. It is mellow and unobstructed. Those who can complete the realization of the realization can enter, and it is no different from the Zen Buddhism.So how can you break into this realm from the respect of Liuhe?So what we are talking about now is to give everyone a blessing, which does not prevent us from working honestly and honestly every day, even after you stop here, you still have to work hard, and you have to work harder, just like the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. After becoming a Buddha, do they still recite to the Buddha?Read it too!Read more diligently. At that time, reading was thought without thought, thought without thought, and thought with joy and nature.Therefore, on the one hand, we work hard to do our homework on daily matters, and on the other hand, we can further work hard on our minds and learn from the rationale.Wow!Then everything is perfected and perfected now, and things will be done more perfect, happier, and more diligent, so we can also try to improve from this aspect.

(XNUMX) Satisfactory views and understandings (this is the master of drafting has not yet finalized the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merits are boundless!) 

So when it comes to Liuhe Jing, we know that this Liuhe Jing also has the order of "seeing and understanding; precept and fellow practitioners; body and living together; mouth and no accusation; intention and harmony; benefit and harmony" as long as the first is the first. We have achieved the personal view and the same explanation, and all the following five items can be completed naturally, so the key is the first one.Seeing reconciliation, how to see reconciliation?As far as the practice of our Pure Land Method is concerned, Gude summed up with us, this is the forty-eight vows that are the most important in terms of the "Blessed Life Sutra".Among the forty-eight vows, the most important one is the XNUMX vows.So what is the core of our pure land practice?Faith and willingness, this faith and willingness is the core of the core.

If we can truly grasp this practice, have a certain degree of mastery of faith and will, and even have a certain degree of skill, then this view and understanding will have a certain level of realm!We dare not say to be XNUMX%, XNUMX% to become a Buddha!As long as you achieve one point, fellow practitioners can follow the core practice of the three resources of rebirth according to their faith and wishes, and work together in the same direction and the same goal. This is to see and understand.

But it's useless to know it in theory. It takes at least one point to be truly engaged. You have a sense of the power generated by faith, willingness and deeds.That is to say, we must truly be able to truly believe in the aspirations made by Amitabha Buddha and the blissful world where we are going to be reborn in the Pure Land Method, and the behavior that appears is to faithfully recite the Buddha's rebirth.

If we can truly arouse our true faith and aspirations, it is to receive the blessings of Buddha.At this time, our confidence that we can die can rise right away, this kind of understanding and understanding!It's very consummate!We can achieve this goal.So the last time I came, I also talked to fellow practitioners about this part, because I myself feel that time is running out!The old monk also said that the disaster in 2012 is very likely to happen. He even mentioned that he was leaving after the Chinese New Year when he gave a lecture on December 12th a few days ago.Oops!I heard that the fellow practitioners were very nervous, but the 25 disaster he mentioned before is indeed very likely to happen. Then if it does happen, he will leave. He said that fellow practitioners who do not leave wish you a long life, and he must leave first. Up.So after I hear it!I also checked the relevant information on the Internet, and I am really interested!I am also arranging funerals!

Fortunately, three years ago, through the blessing of this related work by Master Shandao, we have raised our confidence in the death, and it has also risen very clearly, otherwise disaster will come, of course!If we don’t know whether our faith has risen, we don’t know what to believe in?I don’t know the theory, but this method is very simple. As long as you are really willing to recite the Buddha, the key lies in your wish. If your wish is true, you can go without being afraid.But I personally think that we can still improve, we haven't passed away yet!Why don't we let our confidence in rebirth rise right now, and receive the blessing of Amitabha Buddha right now, and we will transform body and mind right now, and then you can be like Amitabha's messenger, you have the ability to help others and build confidence.

You really believe in it!If you do it, you can naturally influence others. You don't have to wait until the Paradise of Bliss to go back and then come back. You can now repay Buddha's grace!You can form your own Dharma fate!The person who seeks to live in the Pure Land through your guidance, regardless of whether you are reincarnated in this life or in the next life, this person is saved by you.After you become a Buddha in the future!Your Dharma Destiny in the Buddha Kingdom is very special!Otherwise, there will be only three or five people left when you become a Buddha, and it would be too boring to have a few relatives in your buddhaland.So, seize the time as soon as possible to persuade others to learn this method. Then you will continue to improve in your faith. Don't wait for disasters or wait until you really think that you should go when you are older. Time!Usually not insured.Don't wait until that time, you have to decide now, one is impermanence!It is ruthless and will come at any time. One is that we are a matter of life and death!Solve it one day earlier, let's be at ease one day earlier!Then it can benefit other people even further, so you must not underestimate this matter.

(XNUMX) Consumable precepts and fellow practitioners (this time the master drafting master has not yet finalized the school, if there are typos, please report the error, the merits are boundless!) 

For those who have not yet reborn faith and have not yet arisen, all things in the world should be put aside.This letting go is to let go of the heart first. In terms of our standards, we are more free in matters!It doesn't matter if the sky falls, listening to the scriptures and the Fa is the most important thing, nothing is more important than this.There are many obstacles in the world. If you solve the mortal matters first and then practice, this will be a little blessing. If you solve it as soon as possible, you can benefit sentient beings a day earlier!One day to get free himself.Therefore, in order to achieve "seeing and understanding", we must work hard at the core of faith, willingness and deeds, and truly be able to build up confidence. Those who believe in the Buddha and seek survival meet the conditions of seeing and understanding. If they truly meet the requirements of seeing and understanding. Solve this condition, the next few items will be much easier.

"Precepts and fellow practitioners" came to the dojo to recite the Buddha. Has anyone said that they want to come here to practice mantras?No way!You will naturally accept all the rules of the dojo with joy. This is the precept and fellow practitioners!Naturally you can and will do it happily, so the first is the most important thing. You must first raise the heart of believing in the Buddha.Especially the sincere wish that arises after receiving the kind of induction blessed by the Buddha, that is to have Dharma happiness, then naturally you will do the next few things very happily, and you don’t need to be forced to go to the dojo to ask for it. Forbidden!You can only recite Buddhism, but you can't relax your mind. You are too late to be happy!Everyone is forbidden to say that it means that others will not disturb you, so you will recite the Buddha well.right?

If you are not single-minded and fail to achieve understanding and sympathy, and you are not single-minded to recite the Buddha and practice together, then you want to find someone to talk to. Forbidden words are a kind of bondage to you.But if the previous conditions are already fulfilled!Oops!All these rings!The precepts are all supporting us to achieve Dao Karma and help us remove some obstacles.Those who really make us happy and let us practice, then this precept and fellow practitioners are too easy to achieve Consummation, right?It is no longer a painful thing, is it so painful to keep the precepts?No way!

Respectful excerpts from disciple Shuyuan

(XNUMX) Believe and wish to recite the Buddha to complete the Six Harmony (this master has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

Next comes the "body and living together" layman, of course!It’s not living together, unlike our monks living in the Sangha, but if you have a little idea about Hua Yan, you will know that the entire Dharma realm is one. In terms of shrinking, our entire planet is now called a global village!An area where every sentient lives!They are all closely related. If there is a disaster here, the other side will also be affected. We live on the earth together. This is also called "body and living together"!In the future, we will return to the world of bliss, our common hometown.So it seems that we don’t live under one roof in matters. In fact, if we have the same opinions and the same goals, then the "body and living together" will also be fulfilled. 

"Mouth and no confession" What about kou and no confession, if we wholeheartedly rise up true faith and eagerly chant the Buddha honestly, you will naturally seize the time to recite the Buddha. This is called the continuation of pure thoughts, and it can naturally also be integrated into the training purpose of the Yuantongzhang!You see, one pass, one pass, one pass!Consummation in all methods is incredible!You can truly recite the Buddha with one mind. You can’t talk to others. If you hurry up and recite the Buddha, it’s too late. At this time, you can do it naturally. People want it. It's not difficult to talk to you about right and wrong and you don't want to listen to it!

If there is not the first point of view and understanding, you say it is not easy for us to make mistakes? The "Blessed Life Sutra" usually talks about body, mouth and mind, while the "Blessed Life Sutra" talks about mouth, body and mind. What does this mean?Oral karma is the easiest to commit, so it is difficult to speak and be blameless.The biggest source of right and wrong among the dojos comes from the mouth, the oral karma, so how to cut off from the source to achieve the right and wrong is the point of view and understanding that we just talked about.We have really grasped the direction of learning, that is, the key to the practice of faith, willingness and practice of Jingzong. After the true integration, we just said that it is not only that you know faith and willingness in theory, but you really have to integrate into this realm, and you can understand other methods. All can be fulfilled, even if the matter is not fulfilled, your heart is already fulfilled, and you can really be fulfilled right now.It is even possible to be a Buddha right now. In theory, it is like this. It is incredible to be able to become a Buddha until you reach such a consummation without waiting for your death!

Disciple Shuyuan Respectful Day

(XNUMX) Consummation and happiness (this master has not yet finalized the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

Next is "Yi He Tong Yue" We have many fellow practitioners!Already have confidence in the death.This kind of confidence, some people with very good roots, they even understand the truth, some people are because they have deep good roots, but they don’t understand the truth, but the same characteristic is that they really feel Amitabha’s. Blessing, what does it mean to sense the blessing of Amitabha?Sensing the great mercy of Amitabha Buddha, he sent us the connotation of forty-eight vows, and he really felt the warmth and power in his heart.

So whether these fellow practitioners are educated or uncultured, as long as their faith in their rebirth has risen, because the people you really interact with Amitabha will surely rise in confidence!You don’t doubt Amitabha Buddha. You believe that he will come and pick you up to become a Buddha. After such a kind of confidence rises in your heart, our mood and joy will be the same, but some people can express it, and some people. Not good at expressing.

Just like the names introduced in the Twelve Lights Tathagata have a dharma meaning! "The light of liberation, the light of stability, the light of wisdom, the light of joy" are all realms of talk!We can really raise this kind of induction!Right now, we are in liberation, joy, and pure wisdom rise!These are the states of mind that can be sensed immediately after receiving the blessings of Amitabha Buddha. This is the "intention and harmony".

The kind of inner Dharma joy is the same, but there are different depths. The deeper the confidence of each person is with Amitabha, the greater your Dharma joy!The benefits obtained, the greater the merits and benefits.Even if you feel that you are going to die, you are sure of it!Therefore, we must concentrate our firepower on this act of faith and wish, and not from the surface, but from the heart to interact with Amitabha, this is not difficult.

Because each of our fellow practitioners has had the opportunity to come into contact with the Pure Land Dharma in this life, and has also made a vow to die. These people have a deep connection with Amitabha Buddha. They have been family members and relatives who have studied together for life and life, but we This is just a kick!I haven't entered, I hope that the confidence has not risen, it's just a little bit, so we have to rely on the blessing of the Buddha, we can't do it on our own, and it is not easy to say that we will have confidence in our own life!Saying that you have confidence is a big lie, which one is capable!If we rely on ourselves to say that there is confidence in the kingdom of the reborn Buddha, let alone the kingdom of the reborn Buddha, it will be difficult to be a human in the next life!It is very difficult to be born into the heavens, and the five precepts and ten virtues should be achieved.

So because our method relies on the power of the Buddha, as long as we have good roots and virtues, we accept, and we are willing to accept and receive the blessing power of Amitabha, the decision to die, unless you don't want to go!right?The conditions are very simple!Be willing to do it!It really is that simple, so this key must be grasped.Whether it is Liuhejing or other methods, there are no obstacles. Of course, it is impossible to achieve perfection in matters, and it is reasonable to enter the circle to complete the proof.

(XNUMX) Consummation of Lihe Tongjun (The master of drafting has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merits are boundless!)

The sixth "Lihe Tongjun", when we feel that we have confidence in our demise, in this life we ​​only want to recite the Buddha, only want to associate with Amitabha, and only want to rush to the world of bliss with one heart and one mind.Then you are naturally less greedy for everything in this world, and a wealth of wealth is not comparable to the gold on the roads of the Elysium!right?And you can't take anything with you when you die!You can't take it inside the coffin either.So naturally you won’t be so obsessed anymore. You can easily do "Lihe Tongjun", and smart people, you have to give up as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the disaster strikes, you will have no chance to give up. You still want to give up. Say: I'll go back to the will and make arrangements for the distribution.Or go to charity again!Tell you that you have to give alms as well as blessings, so that you can truly do a good job in a consummation. Many people give alms!Donated a lot of money and created a lot of karma, and donated to the evil spirits, right?Moreover, after giving alms, I still have troubles, and I still cannot bear to regret it. This is all karma, so there is no too much blessing and karma, so we must do a clean and complete generosity!The truly meritorious charity is not easy!So arrange it earlier!

Make proper arrangements for the things outside of your wealth earlier, at least write a will!After you pass away, it’s best to accumulate virtues for your children and grandchildren among the Three Jewels. The best thing left to your children is education. The current education and future Yin virtues must accumulate the Yin virtues for them. You must give this Yin virtue to the Three Jewels. This is The greatest blessing.The world law can be done according to the conditions, and the good law can be done according to the conditions. The main thing is to cultivate the great blessings in the Three Jewels.This is not our family's praise or boasting, no, because it is the best so I chose it!I just introduced it to everyone.Moreover, after the real wealth is given away, this can be truly preserved, and it can be used by future generations of children and grandchildren even when they come back when they wish.Don't want to say that I am going to become a Buddha. I don't need this and don't care about it.

Just as there is a well-known koan in Zen Buddhism, which is famous by layman Pang Yun, he doesn't care if a family of four has to live after he realizes it!All the possessions are thrown into the sea, Zen Buddhism is a shame!Everything is broken to the point of being completely broken! Going into the empty door!He was not attached to everything, and then the whole family went to weave straw sandals to live. This is a manifestation of Zen Buddhism.Our Pure Land is not!The Pure Land must take advantage of aspirations to come back and save sentient beings. You need food to save sentient beings. If you don’t have blessings, it’s hard to save sentient beings. We don’t have any status or status at all if we are dressed in tattered clothes. People will ignore you, you. He doesn't believe in talking about breaking the mouth, so we donate things outside of the body, and this can be kept in the future, and it can really be preserved, and it is a reward.

If we don't deal with these things before we die, then this blessing will be lost.Because you have not used up your blessings in this life before, and if you don’t use it now, it means you don’t have it. If you don’t give it away, it means you don’t have it, and it will even bring you disasters.why?His children and grandchildren don't care if you are in the coffin or not. He first divides the property clearly before speaking. This is the phenomenon in Taiwan. The wealth of the wealthy and the wealthy is too many billions of dollars!The result? The children and grandchildren fight for the family property for a long time, and the coffin hasn't been enshrined for a long time. They really don't want to die!This divine consciousness knows that it is really sad to see that his descendants are arguing for property and ignore him!In that state of mind, if you don’t learn Buddhism, you must have gone to the Three Evil Dao. It is really pitiful, so don’t leave too much wealth for your children and grandchildren. It’s really like this! On the contrary, let them have this kind of love and work. This habit.

It is left to them the present education and the future Yinde, which is the most important, the smartest and the most wise.So "Lihe Tongjun"!It's too easy for a person who truly believes in eager to survive in the West.If we are not ambitions in the West, and we are wholeheartedly greedy for the five desires and six dusts, then it will be too difficult for us to benefit from harmony.Don't talk about the "Lihe Tongjun" with fellow Daoists, you must count everything with your family members, and even if you count it as uneven, then you should be equal!Profits are benefits, and they must be evenly distributed. This is difficult to achieve in a lifetime, so we have mastered the key points, and it is easy to do it all at once.

(XNUMX) The directors of the three conversions and five precepts are the same (this time, the drafting master has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

Once we have mastered the understanding and understanding, the next few items will naturally be fulfilled, so now we are engaged in doing our homework honestly and learning bit by bit on the one hand.The precepts must also be learned. The precepts of the situation, the three conversions are also the precepts. You really have to rely on the Dharma, the Sangha, and the heart to rely on. It is not just a form.People who have undergone the Three Conversions for a long time may not have really converted to Buddhism. Those who have been converted can feel the rewards of not falling into the Three Evil Paths. Could it be that after three to five minutes of rituals, you are qualified not to fall into the Three Paths. Is it evil?How can it be that simple!

Only if you truly take refuge in the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha in your heart, rely on it, and rely on the teachings of the Dharma, Dharma and Sangha that you have the heart to learn, and that kind of sincerely relying on the heart, will you have a way to feel the consequences of not falling into the three evil ways.So just learn how to take the three refuges! The next five precepts must be implemented in the aspects of life!We say that the heart is the most consummate, but he is the same in terms of things and rationality. People who are truly connected to the truth and those who really have in their hearts will definitely do well in terms of things and do better. The same.

If you say that you truly believe in and are eager to live, and as a result you do not even recite the Buddha and continue to practice evil and good deeds, then your true faith is false, not true.It’s what you think, alas!Anyway, I just have to go! That's what you are talking about now!Can the thought on the deathbed go?That's hard to say! As long as there is a stubborn thought, you can't be reborn, and you can't be reborn with a greed.Therefore, whether we are involved in theory and whether we really have it in our minds, we can't just score points on our own, but we have to show it through behavior.

If you are not sure, will you be sure when you die?Do you really believe in it?Then you should be more honest and urge yourself to learn the precepts and to keep the precepts and recite the Buddha. You can’t say that I just start from the heart, and then you’re learning the wrong way.Entering from the heart and from the rationale is a higher level of improvement. After the level of improvement, you can only do things more satisfactorily, and you can't be more slack. You have to make this clear.So here I am also revealing a piece of news. It’s better to reveal half of it first, because it’s not necessarily a good thing to say too much about many things.

(XNUMX) Fellow initiates have taken heart to protect the dojo (this time the drafting master has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

I came into contact with the blessings of Master Shandao three years ago, and my practice in the Pure Land Method has greatly improved, and I have confidence in my demise.After that, I came to Malaysia three times this year, each with a trip of nearly two months, and I also forged some Dharma bonds with fellow practitioners.The reactions of fellow practitioners everywhere have been very good. Indeed, this is the blessing of Buddhism, and this is not my personal strength.I'm just talking about bringing some real benefits from my own studies to share with you.Well, people who heard it for the first time were very happy no matter how much they understood, so it was the second time at most, and the third time this year was the second time at most. Those people who have matured Sungenford!I have already been able to clearly grasp this theory and method, and this method has also been absorbed into the mind, so so far, there have been many fellow practitioners and many men.

Young men!There are people in their XNUMXs, XNUMXs, XNUMXs, XNUMXs, and old cultivators, they can truly develop this confidence.So there was one of them, and many fellow practitioners started with me, so I was particularly moved by one of them.He really is what I saw with my own eyes that he has changed a lot along the way, starting from having no confidence in this method until he has confidence, and his body and mind are transformed, and he is really big-hearted.Not only did he recite the Buddha honestly, but he also showed great heart to protect the public. This is because he saw so many suffering sentient beings from his own compassion, and he initiated a big heart out of his compassion, so he asked me to lead.Therefore, I was also moved by his intentions, and I accepted his request so it is currently under preparation.There will be a dojo such as the Jungle Retreat.

If we follow our plan, it can be activated within about a year, and the speed is very fast.Because as soon as I accepted this heart, it was really sent by Buddhas and Bodhisattvas immediately.This is a big place in the deep mountains, about XNUMX meters above sea level. This is an outdoor Taoyuan, which needs to be kept secret for the time being.Because this place was not open to the public, after it was made public, it quickly became a place for pilgrims from the four famous mountains in the mainland to visit.We are here to achieve Buddha samādhi, so there is no need to make it public.Well, this fellow practitioner, this place is also his personal purpose, private property!A personally motivated dojo, then he respectfully inspires me to come and lead.I hope to support some graduate students who can really be said to be!Our postgraduate students of the Pure Land Method really let go of all things, and sincerely believe in reciting the Buddha faithfully.This true faith and ardent wish really arises, and it must be verified by me, not even if you say it.

"True faith and desire" But because in the world you really want to achieve the skill of chanting Buddhism, it is not impossible, but it is more difficult.You have to have a lot of obstacles in succession with pure thoughts!right?As far as the practice of our Pure Land Method is concerned, if you follow the guidance of Master Shandao, you can decide to die right now.Everyone can die, thousands of people will go.But our goal is to hope that we can go not only to be able to die, but also to be able to walk very solemnly, the rare Rayxiang, who can die from the previous generation, and die without disease. We set our goal at this standard, so we must go in for permanent residents. You must have a good standard.

In other words, you can surrender your own worries, and your basic self-cultivation is pretty good!Don’t get used to having serious illnesses and find someone to quarrel and chat all day long. That’s not good!We don’t have time to tell you some basic teachings.All the discs that need to be recorded are also recorded, and you will have to work hard as soon as you enter it!The standard five days we set a week is forbidden.In the jungle, observing the precepts and reciting the Buddha is not a life of enjoyment.But in nature, we follow the rules of Baizhang, the Taoist style of the jungle, we do not eat every day.We grow vegetables, sweep the floor, and sweep fallen leaves through physical labor!Some of these labors, physical labor, are also helpful to the delusion of psychological subduedness. The medical profession often has some data to prove it.Physical labor can treat depression or bipolar disorder, and it can be treated thoroughly.

What's more, we chant the Buddha with one heart, the blessings of the Buddha, and we banned speech for five days a week, and on Saturdays and Sundays for two days, we exchanged ideas, shared experiences, and expressed repentance. What faults and what did we discover this week? If you have a habit, you need to confess to the public and eliminate karma. On the one hand, you can also share your experience. This is the cause of living together.The first person to enter already has a considerable level. This is a graduate student!You are truly qualified and capable of doing the Tao with one heart!Don't let others persuade you!It is necessary for others to be troubled when they have something to do, and it is necessary to influence others to still have some human rights and wrongs. It is necessary to achieve the ability to truly concentrate on working hard by oneself.Then we provide that environment as well as provide good knowledge and fellow practitioners.

Also, I personally replace Master Shandao to communicate with you Dharma and give you a guide.There is such a quiet environment without interference, a kind of spiritual blessing of nature, and I like it very much when I look at that land, that kind of spiritual blessing.Then there are fellow Daoists who really implement Liuhejing in this way. I am confident that at least XNUMX points can be achieved, and the language is forbidden for five days a week. If you want to make noise, you don't have to make noise.If you don't recite the Buddha honestly!You can't stay.So being able to stay affirmed is also full of joy and joy, so Liuhejing is at least XNUMX points or more.

It is very difficult to do in the world, if this precept is a bit stricter!The ban on language for five days a week is to be completely implemented.Also, don't say hello when you meet, and don't even communicate with your eyes. Do it thoroughly. "Liugenshoushe" you will be your deacon, sweep the floor when you sweep the floor, and grow vegetables when you grow vegetables. The whole outside world has nothing to do with you at all.Because people have a polite habit, it seems to say hello when they meet, so we set this rule so that everyone will not doubt if they don’t say hello to each other, yeah?He was in a bad mood today. I was not pleasing to my eyes. I told him to ignore me, and he would ignore me when I put my palms together and Amitabha Buddha.This set is also exempt! Even the palms of the Amitabha are exempted, and it is true and thorough to do the Tao with all one's heart and mind.

(XNUMX) Recite the Buddha to purify the body, mouth, and mind (The master of the draft has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, and the merits are boundless!)

My inspiration comes from Zen's Koan. When Zen talks, he grabs the head of a sentence, just like a cat staring at his prey, a mouse staring at him, and he stares at him until he is enlightened. .So there is a Koan saying: There is a person who goes into the Zen dojo to place an order, it is just a master!They lived together for many years!Don't even look at him.Then one day he couldn't help it, wanting to say if he was not pleasing to him, and how did he offend him.Because no one else would be like this, I had to figure it out later.Let me ask the resident master. Later, the resident master was also very compassionate and explained to him: Who is the one who really wants to do the Dao!There is no time to waste every minute!You can't bother, it's not that you look down on him, but because his heart is completely on the head of this sentence.

Let's recite Buddha!The goal is only to be able to die, but it does not say that it must be fully enlightened.But we can also learn this kind of spirit and help us to take six roots and completely get rid of the secular set.And as long as you interact with each other often, whether it’s conversation or eye contact, it’s unavoidable that after a long period of time it is to have craving, the more you look at it, the more pleasing to the eye, or the more trouble it is, the more you look at it, the less pleasing to the eye, right? ?Ordinary people will be tempted!We even have to purify his mind and karma. The real body, mouth, and mind are all doing things on this Buddha's name. Is this standard very strict?Not! 

For a person who really wants to work hard and devote one's heart to the Buddha to seek death, it happens to be the most extraordinary facility without interference.Master Shandao, our second ancestor of Jingzong, is very strict in keeping the precepts.When he entered the chanting hall, he only chanted to sweat, and even in cold weather, he chanted to sweat.As soon as I went out, I didn't talk about any other topics, only persuading people to recite Buddhism.Usually when there is no crops, when there is no errands to do things, he likes a person, he said why he likes a person, because this way the Buddha will not be interrupted or interrupted, this is really necessary.

Master Shandao studied the Pure Land Dharma at the age of twenty, and attained samādhi chanting at the age of twenty-three.It is not difficult to attain the Buddha Samadhi!You see, after three years of playing the iron pot and leaking craftsmanship, we can achieve chanting of the Buddha Samadhi after three years of silly recitation!We have a heart to read, an earnest heart to read, and we know the method.That is to say naturally and honestly, you should not have the idea that I want to realize Buddha samādhi, I want to realize Buddha samādhi, and use this kungfu mind to recite every day, then you also have to prove that it is not incompatible.We truly understand that when we have mastered the method of reciting the Buddha naturally and honestly, coupled with such an environment that makes us successful, we really do it. This is called real work. It doesn't take three years, but there will be news in a year or two!And the past year or two has been filled with happiness every day, so I don't want to force you to practice Kung Fu!Therefore, whether we play eight passes every day, three-time chanting or chanting or chanting of the Buddha, we don’t need to practice Kungfu for more courses, and you will have no pressure.What you naturally want to do, what you should do, and if you do it with this mentality, you will be able to truly get the benefits of the Fa.

(XNUMX) The deceased is due to faith and willingness (this is not the proof that the master of drafting has not set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, and the merits are boundless!)

If you have a mind that cultivates and seeks to do it, you will wait to see your results. This kind of waiting mind is a kind of obstacle, a kind of gain and loss.Just like you plant a tree, you water the flowers with him every day, and it will grow up someday.But you go to see if you grow taller every day?Have you grown taller yet?You will find that it grows very slowly, as if it does not grow tall.In the same way, we should do what we should do naturally, without pressure, you have to believe it!We recite Buddhist scriptures every day to do the homework we should do. How can we not die!right?This is the cause of death!Be willing to do it!They are all practiced in our Pure Land Method.With this cause, the retribution will naturally regenerate into a Buddha, so what else is there to say, what is there to worry about.Since there is nothing to worry about, we can now have faith in rebirth.Why are you polite?

We must have faith in this method, faith in Amitabha, and faith in our good roots. Although our karma is very heavy, it is true, but the heavier our karma, the more Amitabha must come and save us first, and a bunch of people will die. During the reception, Amitabha will pick us up first.Because our karma is so heavy that we are about to drown, and we are about to drown in the sea, he must rescue us first.Therefore, these related theories and practices are often cultivated and deepened, and you will have confidence in the moment without knowing it. This is true!

It’s not that difficult to generate faith in the rebirth!Don't scare yourself, if you don't feel confident, you really can't die.Master Shandao taught us that we must be creative, we must be creative.Those of us who have read Huayan know that if you have faith, this is the cause, and if you have a cause, you will have an effect.Whatever you want, there will be results, all things are ideal.If you always think that you don’t have the confidence to die, you really can’t die.And our faithful rebirth is not a fantasy, it has a theoretical basis, it is based on the Three Classics of the Pure Land, and based on the explanation given to us by the great virtue of the Patriarch. We have nothing to doubt and fear. 

Then I mentioned our cause and fate just now!It can be said that the dojo we want to achieve is difficult to find at home and abroad.Even if there is, many people may not know it, because as we said, it is not open to the outside world, right?In fact, you have seen a lot. It seems that many monks and monks may not follow the Dhamma very well, and many dojos are not very Dharma-like. That's because your karma can only see these conditions.In fact, I have visited a lot of dojos and they have followed the law very well.Like the Po Lam Temple on Lantau Island in Hong Kong, it is truly an ascetic jungle left by the traditions of the old monk who inherited the traditions of the old monk. There are still many places. The mainland is also true, and Taiwan is also a monk who lives together like the law. Group, but because it is not open to the outside world, ordinary laymen cannot go.So don't anyone say that Buddhism is in such a decline right now. As long as our minds change and our karma disappears, we will feel other causes and conditions that are better.

Then I just mentioned that our place is a layman. He has truly transformed his mind and body after hearing this Fa. He wants to benefit more sentient beings. He is truly unconditional.I also put forward this part as a reference for everyone. It is really a model for us to learn.Because now many laymen do not know how to protect the Dharma.What we have seen, especially our society, the Jingzong society, is because in the early days, the Korean and English curator guarded our old monks. It seems that the cause of them is that they are all managed by the layman.The old monk said that these monks were all shaved for curator Hanying. We all know this is their special cause.We need to give respect and understanding. Everyone has different causes.

But don't follow the example, there are many lay people now!They all learn, it seems, because the curators of Korean and Ying used to be like this, they were all laymen to take care of the monks.So many people follow the same example, and many lay people in other places are interested in it. He is not malicious!He thought that he should protect the Three Jewels in this way, and he had learned it wrong!A layman is in charge of the monks. If you are not a Vimalakirti layman, or a layman who comes back on your wish, how do you manage the monks?Do you understand the 348 precepts for women and men, and 250 precepts for men?Only when you understand that you can manage the monks in the same way to lead them in their studies, and try not to do so. Why?You see, Li Bingnan, an old layman, is really a great virtue, and he is very respectful to the Three Treasures.He was close to an old Buddhist monk in Taiwan, the great virtue of Jingzong, who also protected the monks in the same way, instead of saying that they really managed the monks by themselves.You don't have any substantive ability, you just use the power to protect the blessings to pressure to manage. This is wrong.What will this cause?Indirectly speeding up the decline of Buddhism, and even in the period of the end of the Dharma, the white-clothed ascended lay laymen's lectures are already the decline of Buddhism.

Respectful excerpts from disciple Shuyuan

(XNUMX) Pure heart respectfully protects the Three Treasures (The master of drafting has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, and the merits are boundless!)

It is stated in the bodhisattva vow that the layman’s statement must be approved by the monks, and there is no one in this generation who teaches sutras. There is no way. In order for everyone to cultivate and open fate, he must receive the bodhisattva vow, and he himself is virtuous and receives Only recognition can replace the monastic statement.However, the modern era of the end of the Dharma is different, and many lay people are also interested!He said, oops!It's miserable. Now that all monks in the Dharma-Ending period have cultivated so badly, there is no way, but I have to get my mind!My old man was promoted to give lectures and used as the Four Treasures to teach sentient beings. It seemed that it was also kind!In fact, this is really corrupting Buddhism, including our bhikshuni. Bhikkhuni saw that Master Bhikkhu no matter how well he cultivated, the Sangha through the Buddha's ordination, it is more solemn for the monks to lead the monks, and the monks are more solemn. Bhikkhu, then we bhikkhuni will bear it.The same ethics of the Sangha, this is the basic commandment.If you haven't implemented it, then you say how good you can cultivate, and what kind of virtues can you use to influence sentient beings!

The duty of the layman is to protect the Dharma, and the responsibility of spreading the Dharma is to give an account to the family. If the lay patriarch devotes himself to protecting and advancing the Dharma, it will be great!We hope that you will be able to become a monk and truly learn the precepts in the Sangha. Even when I learned it in Malaysia this time, I also mentioned to some chairpersons that the chairpersons have no choice but to become a monk because of the current situation. Very few, many of them are leaders of the guild leader. It is best to devote yourself to a short-term ordination to improve yourself. On the one hand, you have learned the precepts in the Sangha. Only then can you truly develop respect for the Three Jewels, and you will know how to follow the Dharma. Come to support, truly achieve your own merits, double cultivation of blessings and wisdom!Otherwise, you just have a motivation, you don't know how to do it, you can't manage it well, and you don't manage it in accordance with the precepts.Regardless of whether it is managing a monk or a leader in spiritual practice, this is very dangerous!So some people are really big-hearted.

Some lay persons are also very eager to see a decline in Buddhism, but they need to know how to operate with wisdom.If you feel that the quality of the monks is very poor and there is no way to carry out the work of spreading the Dharma, we have to think about whether our Dharma has not been done well, has not fulfilled its duties, and has not really achieved some Dharma-like dojos, just like this layman who really is. If he doesn't send his heart, I won't accept it.From the beginning of Novice, I have many reasons to ask me to be the abbot!I declined.Because the old monk said that if you want to kill a person, ask him to become an abbot, he will die very quickly, and being an abbot is very tiring. It's not that simple.

I didn't have that skill before, and I don't have that skill now.It's just that I have confidence in this Fa, and I'm just acting as a representative.Then it is because of his intentions, he is really sincere, and he respectfully contributes money and effort!I study very respectfully. I am truly practicing the precepts. I follow the Dharma. It’s very difficult for a personality like me to control me. I don’t rely on you, right?I rely on Amitabha!If you rely on transactions, then you don't have to.We live at home well too!Why do you have to accept two meals and eat two meals when you are a monk? The offering of the two meals depends on the face of the other person. It is not like this to protect the monks or the Three Jewels.

It is impossible for true practitioners to do this for this benefit. If you say that there is nothing to do with the cause, then it is okay!Then repair forbearance!That's because there is no way for it. If it can be avoided, we will try to avoid these conditions. We don't accept offerings casually, and we don't owe you favors!Therefore, if a real layman wants to cultivate real merit, he must have a respectful heart, respectfully and cleanly protect the Three Jewels, so that you can feel that the real practitioner accepts your protection and does not negotiate a deal.So if you really want to protect the Three Treasures for a long time, the layman should work hard to achieve a Dharma-like dojo and maintain it like the Dharma. 

Respectful excerpts from disciple Shuyuan

(XNUMX) Fuhui double cultivation to achieve merits (this is the master of drafting has not yet set the school, if there are typos, please report the error, the merits are boundless!)

Our most typical representative is what we saw in the Amitabha Sutra. The lonely elder who only gave a tree to the lonely garden is really a typical great protector. Our Chinese Emperor Liang Wu is also a great protector, but he starved to death in his later years, and the patriarch of Bodhidharma Tell him that he only cultivates merit, not merit.This lonely elder is truly a double cultivation of Fu and Hui, after he donated the land!Everyone knows that in order to buy that land, he spread it all over, and he insisted on buying the land. After he bought it, he also looked like a lot of big guardians now. Oh, I donated so much money. This place is the biggest one. The monks are all under my control, and of course they all serve him when they go, no!After the lonely elder donated the land, he also gave food and offerings every day after that. Instead of going to the monastery, he would sway it and wait for the monks to cook for him. Of course, you can do this too!You have this blessing!

But what we are talking about is a model, a model of our learning, this is the achievement of real merit.So the lonely elders respectfully provide for food every day, and he seeks the Dharma to truly practice.Well, after he has been making such offerings for many years, he gradually donated more and more money and the rest became less and less, so he looked a little bit of a fall in his family.At this time, the guardian elf in his house couldn't bear it, and he was about to speak, and he persuaded his master to say, "Master! Don't donate like this anymore. If you donate again, there will be no food at home." That money Almost all donations are almost out of food, and then this time is really testing his mind. He was completely unmoved at the time. Really, the family is running out of money. Not only did he remain unmoved, but also The guardian spirit drove out: "Get out of here! You actually told me to give up protecting the Three Jewels, and saying that it is wrong to protect the Dharma. You can feel that there is no blessing now. Now the family is about to die of poverty."

At this time, he really passed the test and didn't waver at all, and then the guardian elf was kicked out, and he cried after being kicked out!What should I do? I have nowhere to go!Just ran to Brahma to complain.Then what should he do? Brahma told him and taught him a way. He said, "You! I tell you, your master has cultivated a great blessing. Where is his treasure now hidden? Somewhere. "Because Brahma has magical powers, he told him this guardian spirit, and told him: "Go and save these treasures. This is what he should have in his fate. Go get it back. Find it out and take it to your master. Confess and apologize to him in front of you, so that he will forgive you.” So he did the same, found all the treasures and took them home. Overnight, his wealth was more than before. This is as if it was in " As seen in the Dharma Sutra, this is also a test of our confidence!

(XNUMX) A blessing for the poor and happy Dao (this is the master of the drafting has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

If you are waiting for your alms to give you a reward, and you are watching whether your family's money is getting more and more, then you might be disappointed.Because the heart you are waiting for is an obstacle, your blessings will not be present, because your heart is not pure, how can you give up a lot of rewards without real merits? When you really don’t want anything, it’s really completely unconditional. When you don’t ask for anything in return, your wealth is definitely there, and it will appear in due course. I can prove it myself!

I learned from the beginning, I first encountered Buddhism and listened to the old monk's talk about the immeasurable life for XNUMX minutes.In the next two or three years, I devoted my whole heart to the magic weapon, but I couldn't get in. At that time, I had nearly two million dollars in my account, and I had Taiwan dollars in my account!Then I used the loan to buy a house on the first and second floors as a circulation agency, and circulated the magic weapon with all his strength. The remaining money was handed over to my aunt for management, because my aunt was very good at managing the money, she took it to the bidding meeting and she paid it back every month before the meeting There is interest.So I just put my heart and soul into it. People take money to donate. I said you don’t want to use me. I don’t care about this. You donate directly to the society, so I can’t get in.

In two or three years, the money was almost spent.But I am not worried at all, because I have a lot of skills and I am very confident in myself!I don't have to be afraid that life will be a problem, it really can be a bit of peace and happiness!In the end, I will find a job, a very easy job, anyway, it will be fine!I didn't even think about whether or not to become a monk.The old monk often said that it is easy to practice at home, and he never thought about it. Starting from the contact with this method, everything is arranged by the Buddha and Bodhisattva.Including me as a monk, I just went to see Bao, but I lost my hair in three days by accident. I have been going all the way now. The blessing is getting older year by year. I am so big that I am afraid of blessing. It is best to hide and not have it. Too much blessing, because big blessing is not a good thing.

We don't have enough concentration. If the reward is too great, it will be dangerous if we unknowingly become infected with bad habits.So really have to have confidence. If I didn't have confidence at the time, oops!I'll hurry up and the money is almost spent, what should I do?Hurry up and earn!Then I started to do business, thinking about some more profitable ideas, then it would be troublesome!I went back to the secular world again. The past studies were all fake, and they were all in vain. I don’t have true faith!Of course, it is impossible to feel such a good blessing.I shaved under the seat of Master Enlightenment, and after talking for half an hour, he called me a monk. Master Enlightenment is not an ordinary person!He would also look at people. I was stupid and didn't understand anything at the time, and my karma habit was very heavy, but if I didn't have Dao Xin, he could not call me a monk. 

I have devoted two or three years to practice treasures, and that kind of firmness towards the Fa that spontaneously spreads out, that can't deceive people.Naturally, confidence must come from the heart, and everything must be sincerely revealed from the heart, and you can naturally feel the extraordinary reward.So the old monk said that before he talked about the number of monks in front of the gate of hell, now he talked about the number of presidents in front of the gate of hell.Also reminding some presidents.Damn!Many presidents started to donate and donate, and don’t have any money in the end, so hurry up and look for money!Some people's methods are just to make money. This is troublesome and dangerous.Then I comforted myself and said, "There is no way I can continue to protect the Fa in this way." This must be very careful!If you have to handle it well, is it because you lack confidence in the Dharma?Or do you have any selfishness?Be very careful.So I often advise people to do as many things as we have.

Don't say that I want to protect the Three Treasures, so I have to work hard to make more money. I also sign the betting ticket. What am I going to do? There are good reasons!To protect the Three Jewels, a lot of karma was created as a result.When you have made your money, make a little more and then protect the Three Treasures. As a result, your karma will be endless.The safest thing is that you must act in accordance with the law and protect the Dharma at the moment. The layman must do his duty as a layman and protect it in the same manner. This is safer!Because we are all ordinary people!Don't believe that your heart is moving, you have not yet realized that an Arahant is impure.Therefore, it is more appropriate to follow the rules and the law. Today's time is up, and we will continue to study tomorrow.Amitabha!
