(XNUMX) The Pure Land Method is all based on the power of the Buddha, sincere faith and eagerness to never miss one (this is 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 Master Yamato is merciful, and good evening, dear masters and fellow initiates.Amitabha!

Tonight, we will continue to study the essence of the sixth grade of the "Blessed Life Sutra". The sixth grade of sutra "swear a great vow sixth", which is the core and most important of the forty-eight chapters of the "Blessed Life Sutra".The contents of the other forty-seven products are all expansions of the sixth product, that is, they are all used to explain the content of the sixth product.So today we are going to study the essence of the sixth grade, I will put forward this aspect focusing on the vows of death for everyone to analyze.If you really want to elaborate on the essentials, the forty-eight wishes and wishes of the sixth product are all very important.So because of time, we will not explain them one by one here.

We have recorded CDs in circulation. If all the forty-eight wishes have to be finished, it will take at least ten days, then we have the recorded CDs and we will have about ten hours to explain the essence of this product. Fellow practitioners can watch it together. If we want Let me repeat this sixth product. These ten days have been used up, so here I am specifically focusing on our vows on the conditions of death, and I would like to ask everyone to make an analysis and comparison.Let the fellow practitioners more accurately grasp the practice that suits us.

So first of all, of course, fellow practitioners all know that the most important of these forty-eight vows is the eighteenth vow, which is our second ancestor of the Pure Land Sect, the incarnation of Amitabha Buddha’s return in this life. He explained to us the theory of the Pure Land method throughout his life. The part is to tell us the grandeur of the eighteenth vow.This is also Huang Nianzu’s old layman’s evaluation of the merits of Master Shandao. He pointed out that Master Shandao’s greatest contribution to the Pure Land Method is to draw out the eighteen vows in a special way, so that everyone who learns the Pure Land Method, whether it is the upper, middle, or lower three. All of them can truly be tens of thousands of people to go, and never miss one.

Well, the vicissitudes of the eighteen vows were mentioned with fellow practitioners a few days ago. As long as you are XNUMX% confident and happy, I wish that the heart, sincerity, and true belief in the blessings of Amitabha Buddha, wish to live in our country, we The true willingness to go is not just talking about going another day. This wish is a sincere wish.The method is very simple, even ten thoughts.As long as we recite the Buddha's title, no matter how much we recite, we follow our personal causes and conditions. The key is to have true faith and aspirations in our hearts and we will surely die.Regardless of our high cultural level, low, rich, noble, poor, low, male, female, old, or young, there is nothing to lose. This is the core practice.

So some people do not respond to the eighteenth vow, because the eighteenth vow is really in line with what Gude described. The characteristics of this pure land method are simple, easy, and unbelievable. The real unbelievable law is in the eighteenth vow.Because it's so simple, it really doesn't fit our general concept of cause and effect at all.We generally think that we must first cultivate the cause and then realize the effect. Every effort is made and there is no gain. How can it be said that one can become a Buddha without cultivation?As long as he is willing to die, Amitabha himself will pick him up, and he will become a Buddha as soon as he leaves.

How can there be such a thing?It’s harder to believe than this fairy tale. It’s really hard to believe. Therefore, the person who can believe it is the "Amitabha Sutra".It is necessary to have good roots, merits, and karma to be very sufficient and profound. Hearing this eighteenth wish, he will be able to arise without doubt, and to be able to give birth to a heart like this, wishing to be born in our country.In fact, there are relatively few people of this kind, because people who are about to become Buddhas in this life!In fact, it is not that simple. Not everyone can become a Buddha.

The method is very simple. Everyone can become a Buddha, but you are not willing to become a Buddha because the roots of goodness are not sufficient.What should we do then? Amitabha wants to make a vow to save sentient beings in ten directions. If he only makes eighteen vows, then it is certain that nine out of ten people will not be able to die or save.Because no one believes, there are very few people who can believe, so those who believe will surely die, but because there are very few believers, there are very few people born in the past, and even fewer people will be saved.

Therefore, Buddha Amitabha must make other wishes to attract other people whose roots are not very mature and the roots of goodness are not very deep. First give them some time to slowly grow the roots of goodness. Otherwise, rebirth in the bliss world only needs to tell us a method. Now, why do you have to make so many wishes? It is to fit sentient beings with different roots and different foundations, so we can compare them carefully from the forty-eight vows.It is true that the method of rebirth is difficult and easy, and simple and difficult. It depends on our personal choices. You will naturally respond to this method according to your foundation.

For example, the nineteenth vow, the vows in this paragraph have different conditions. It is famous for making a wish, and XNUMX vows for dying quotes. The conditions for the rebirth of the scriptures in this paragraph are to develop bodhichitta and cultivate various merits. Then go back.The scripture talks about the six paramitas of the re-entry, so this is obviously the two powers of oneself, or the practice of relying on one's own strength and then going back. This standard is different.This fits the other type. The root of belief is weaker. I think it’s safer to rely on one's own strength to practice. It seems that the two forces combined are more sufficient. Most people have this idea. They think that relying on themselves is safer. It's hard to trust others.

This is the root of doubt!The roots of suspicion are very heavy, and the roots of trust are particularly weak. Everyone knows in life that it is difficult to give oneself to another person completely. You always have to do some things on your own. Even when you are a wife, you have to save a little private money, which is more secure. Another day I was abandoned by my husband and still had money to spend.Always keep one hand for everything, right?It seems that relying on one's own strength is always a prevention, or it is safer and more secure. This is human nature.Therefore, there are many such people, and Amitabha must make this vow again, so that at least he does not believe in the eighteen vows, so at least he is willing to make all the deeds in this life to be able to survive!

The problem is that if this kind of person does not have enough faith in Amitabha, so we have said that if this kind of faith is not enough, it will be difficult for you to perceive. Therefore, in fact, our ordinary consciousness is often wrong. We have no wisdom. !All we think up are delusions. We think that if we rely on the Buddha on the one hand and ourselves on the other, wouldn’t it be safer to have more power?That is our wrong idea.We have no power at all, and we still have a lot of delusions in our entire life...In this discipline of ours, since we bring karma, how can the pure meritorious deeds be used as resources for the pure land of rebirth? If we practice the ten virtues and the five precepts, we can deduct deeds, and we can gain the human body in the next life.The ten virtues, the retribution can be ascended to heaven, and this can be used for dedication, but we can’t even do the five precepts and ten virtues well. Even if we do well, we can’t go back to the Buddha kingdom. The Buddha kingdom must be XNUMX% pure and never produce any thought. Well!

How do we fix it in our lifetime?No matter how you are a person with roots, the great virtue of Zen Buddhism, the great virtue of Tantric Buddhism, who dares to say that he can never think about it?There are very few such people, so I want to rely on my own merits to subsidize them as a means of death!Then you are in vain and asking for trouble, why bother?Isn't it good to rely on Buddha?The Buddha had already completed his pure merits before ten kalpas. We only need to believe and accept. And in our whole life to be born in humanity, this shows that it comes with karma and is full of greed, hatred, and delusion. Yes, what ability do we have to achieve pure merits and get back and forth, subsidies?It is really unnecessary, and there are side effects. On the contrary, it shows that we do not have enough confidence in Amitabha, and we have a feeling of alienation. There is no way to rely on Amitabha.

We must follow the guidance of Master Shandao, and constantly recognize that we have no ability at all. When we continue to realize more deeply that we are really like ants on the ground, people will die when they step on them. We really are In this way, our lives are very fragile.We were smashed to death as soon as the sign fell off accidentally when we went out, and there are such people too!Because of impermanence!What are our capabilities?It is really fragile. You have to experience this fact often in your life. At this time, you will naturally rely on Amitabha Buddha XNUMX%. This is relative. This is called "two kinds of deep belief."

It is the Master Shandao who instructs us. The starting point of learning must constantly experience this in life, then we will naturally put Amitabha Buddha closer and closer, anyway, there is no way to go, and only Amitabha vows for us to save. To save us, if you don’t believe it, you have to believe it. Anyway, there is no other way to go. The only way to liberate is the way that the Buddha of the Buddha in the ten directions proves and persuades us. Even if we are deceived, we are willing to be deceived. Where is the Buddha!Will there be such a thing?We have no loss if we are deceived!We have no loss at all, so there is no need to doubt. This is a superfluous act. It just hinders ourselves from having a chance to be liberated. We hand our body and mind to Amitabha, and we are at ease right now. Why bother?

What's more, we also know that one drink and one peck in this life is not predestined. Whatever encounters we encounter in this life is doomed. The cause of the previous life is to be rewarded in this life.So even if we are unwilling to hand it over to Amitabha and Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, there is nothing we can do about it. How can you use your mind to plan your future and this life? That is useless.The so-called people are not as good as the sky!No matter how clever you plan, you will not be as expected in all likelihood, this world is like this.To appreciate this fact in life, we naturally become more and more humble, admit that we are powerless, we can only rely on the salvation of saints, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, don't deceive ourselves and others!Especially those who have great blessings, this figure is difficult to let go.

You tell him to admit his incompetence, oops!Especially the men are so shameless!How can I be incompetent?right?I am rich, powerful, strong, knowledgeable and smart. Maybe I can still do it. What kind of extraterrestrial spacecraft can I take when this earth is destroyed. Anyway, I have the money to buy one. They flew to the moon to take refuge. What American scientists are studying, and many refuge measures, they are these people who will think about ways to do this. They will rely on themselves and think that they are conquering the sky, and he will not think about it. To rely on Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.This kind of person... So you say that Master Shandao teaches us to believe that we are sinful ordinary people. It seems very simple, but it is very simple to us. It is very difficult for these people to admit this fact and it is very difficult, so they have no choice. The karma is heavier than us.

Respectful excerpts from disciple Ming Yan

(XNUMX) The Pure Land Method is a special method that is based on the power of the easy way (this is not the master of the draft, if there is a typo, please report the error, and the merit is boundless!)

If you practice self-reliance in the practice of meditation, meditation, and mantra management, you may achieve faster than us and have a more beneficial rooting. The problem is that your life span is very short in this life, right? You will come again when you are impermanent, and you will start again in the next life. , And it’s getting worse, so in your life, no matter how high and deep the state of concentration, kaihui, and wisdom you have obtained by participating in meditation, you won’t have it in your next life.You have to start all over again, which is equal to zero!So relying on self-study, it seems that no matter how high your skill is in this life, your blessings will return to zero at the end, which is meaningless.

Only when you are reborn in the Paradise of Elysium, you can prove that you can't turn back, and that counts at that time.So if there is this concept, even as we just said that the karma is deeply dependent on oneself, and he does not believe in Buddha at all, then if the concept of the nineteenth wish to be self-reliant, or to rely on self-reliance, this kind of People are harder.Regarding the easy way taught by Nagarjuna Bodhisattva, our Pure Land Method is an easy way, easy is easy, easy way is used as a difficult way to practice, isn’t that wrong? This method is originally very simple, you have to take it It is very difficult to cultivate. Our eight ancestors, Nagarjuna Bodhisattva, he judged the Buddha's life to be divided into two categories, one is difficult and the other is easy.

The easy way refers to this special method of the Pure Land Method. Anything other than the Pure Land Method includes worldly laws, which are all difficult to do, because you have to rely on yourself, and the difference lies in the difference between self-reliance and other power.Relying on his power is very simple, why? Because Amitabha has cultivated all of our merits, we just have to accept it, but it's hard to believe.Then if you rely on your own strength? Then you should cultivate slowly, immeasurable calamity.The three great monks were only counted from the time when we had a great enlightenment. We are not qualified to count time with others at all, so it's not that simple.Master Yinguang also reminds us that to promote the Pure Land method, we must clearly explain the other powers, Buddha powers, and self-reliance. This is the key point.After analyzing and comparing in this way, wise people must rely on the Buddha, don't love face to support, I can, I have the ability, I rely on myself and I don't need to rely on others.

People who are truly wise and committed must quickly achieve success, so that we can come back and truly benefit others, instead of just staying there and trying to save a lot of face, and we can't help anything. We can't help ourselves and want to help others.Then the third type is the wish to repent and live in the XNUMXnd vow. The content of this paragraph is mainly about another kind of foundational person, that is, his karma is also very heavy, and the evil karma of the past has already appeared. , The retribution of the evil and the retribution have already appeared, just like the king of Ah Sha, when he was dying, he created all the five evils and ten evils. When he was dying, hell appeared before, and then he had no way at that time. Fortunately, he had blessings. Someone around him persuaded him to recite the Buddha, so he rushed to the world and repented to live. He was in the kind of mind that was very focused on survival. The power of that mind was very strong. He passed away and was born at the top grade.

In the past, we were discussing his taste with classmates and seniors, but we couldn't figure out how it was possible to be top grade. Obviously the five evils and ten evils described in the "Guan Jing" junior generation were inferior!How can you run out of a top grade middle school student?If you can’t explain it according to the explanations of other patriarchs, and according to the explanations of Master Shandao, there is no contradiction at all, because the taste of the rebirth lies in your faith in the Buddha!According to the eighteen vows, one hundred percent confidence will go straight into the retribution, without going into the buds.The weaker the confidence, the heavier the karma, and the heavier the doubtful mind, all the grades will be born into the third-generation and the ninth-grade, and the lower the grade, then this is very reasonable!When King Achai died, he didn't have a second thought in that thought!It can be said that because hell has already appeared, he has to go there wholeheartedly. He only believes that the trust is really strong. He believes that only the Buddha can save him, and he has no second way to go. This kind of mind is very close to the eighteen vows, the ultimate heart.right?Is it completely accessible, without any contradiction?

We have been thinking about this problem for a long time before, and we have found a lot of information to find no way to solve it. The younger generation of "Guanjing" clearly talks about the low-grade low-level students. Why does his biography talk about the high-grade middle-level students?So we are inferring that his kind of heart at the time was very corresponding to the eighteen vows, but he was unable to go straight to the retribution of the high-grade life, because his vows for this method and Amitabha were not complete. I am convinced that this borrowing from the Tiantai family's judgment will make a difference between one mind and one mind.

If he is focused on everything, suppose that the kind of heart he had at the time was based on his concentration, he was very focused!Seeking death wholeheartedly is more similar to one-minded.If we have understood Amitabha Buddha now, and the intention of issuing this eighteen vows, we have already realized his heart, and we are also familiar with the strength of this vow, the forty-eight vows of him, and the truth is also understood, then It's very similar.We probably analyze and refer to it this way.If it is this kind of belief, the belief of Amitabha Buddha even understands the theory, then it is a XNUMX% belief!At this time, it must be the top grade student who went straight to repay the land.

The boundary between the high-grade Shangsheng and the direct entering the retribution is not so clear. It is directly because the upper-grade Shangsheng is tasteful, but he immediately blooms and sees the Buddha and directly enters the retribution.So the taste of the rebirth is in this place.So even those who repent of their lives are worthy of high grades, seniors.But it's best not to wait until that time, not everyone can be reborn to the Paradise of Bliss before hell appears!That kind of moment of thought, that time is very short, if we don't usually recite the Buddha much and develop the habit of reciting the Buddha, then you might not call Amitabha's name when you are dying.

You may go directly to hell in an instant, that speed is very fast!To hell is as fast as to the world of bliss.The old monk described Maitreya Bodhisattva as a knowledge-only expert in the "Concept of Returning to the Source from Exhaustion". He analyzed how many billions of billions of dollars in an instant. That is a speed that we can hardly imagine, so let's not get lucky, oops!Anyway, I still have twenty-two wishes. I will try my best to have fun. When I am dying, I will come to repent. If I have repented, I can still live. Then I really have to sweat it for you!Few are as big as the King Fubao of Ashiya.So, but even such a person, the Buddha does not abandon it!I also want to make this wish for them, and there are only a few that can be saved.

Respectful excerpts from disciple Ming Yan

(XNUMX) Amitabha Buddha is compassionate and reluctant to meddle in all sentient beings (this time, the drafting master has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

Then the fourth type is the twenty-three wish. This wish for misogyny to male. This is a special and special wish for women. The women among all beings in the ten directions make this special wish. Any woman who hears the name can give birth to misogyny. The male body can then rebirth to the blissful world. This wish also talks about the conditions and the object of rebirth, which is aimed at women.There is a twenty-fifth wish for heaven and man to honor aspirations, and a twenty-seven wish for cultivating a special wish to fulfill a wish. This kind of people has even worse chances.Like the analysis of these few wishes, Huang Nianzu’s comments on the old layman also talked about it, and he also analyzed it like this. Of course, the most outstanding is the eighteen vows, and the person with the worst roots corresponds to the twenty-fifth vow. Follow Xiujusheng to make a wish, because after this type of person hears the name, he doesn't want to die to the Paradise of Bliss.

Just like King Achai and the five hundred elders, when they first heard about this method, they didn't have the desire to be born!There is no need to rely on Buddha!He wished in his heart: "May I be as victorious as Amitabha when I become a Buddha in the future." In other words, he wants to rely on himself, he thinks he is good at it!He depends on himself, but he hopes to become a Buddha in the future to be as outstanding as Amitabha.His reliance on Amitabha did not arise, as we can see in the vows and scriptures.He waited until he was dying before hell appeared. We saw this fact in the "Guan Jing". At that time, he had no way to go. He had no choice but to ask Amitabha to come to save him. So look at King Asai. It is also very typical. It means that these people who are more slow and self-confident about themselves are a good example. They usually don't believe it!But he has good roots. He also admitted that Amitabha is really the king of Buddhas, and the light is so superb. Therefore, he hopes that he will become a Buddha in the future like him, but he did not expect to rely on Amitabha.

Just like our other ancestors, too, too many examples for us!None of us, our eyes are blind, it is really a heavy karma.Other patriarchs who are rooted people, those who practiced Zen and enlightened karmic enlightenment under the teaching of mantras, including Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, have all shown to us, all of them... In the end, they still have to return to the Pure Land and ask for the Buddha!Ask for Buddha's blessing!What's more, it's us. Just seeing this, we should rely on the Buddha with all our heart, and also want to rely on ourselves. Beings are so stupid, weird that they are so clear, why they still can't turn around.I really have to talk about everything that I should talk about, and the rest is my own good roots and fate, so I talk about it, this time I talk about it, and then maybe I'm going to do my funeral, really.

There are not many reasons for going out in the future!I will go out for special reasons, but I can go out after the convenience is closed. Why?Because I have been recording this time for ten days since this year, and it has nearly forty hours of content. I feel that this content is very complete.It's enough to send everyone to the West, and once they become a Buddha, everything that needs to be said is covered.The essence of the Three Classics of the Pure Land, the key points of Master Shandao’s "Four Tie Shu" have been mentioned, and I have not missed it!Make it simple, and speak a little more plainly, because nowadays speaking in classical Chinese, no one can understand it.Some key conditions and mentality for rebirth, as well as how to recite the Buddha's name, how to interact with Amitabha, and how to arouse true faith and aspirations are all mentioned!You just need to do it!You don’t have to know a lot of theory. Knowing a lot is to be altruistic. If you want to spread the Dharma, you need a lot of information. In fact, even if you want to spread the Dharma, don’t make it too complicated.Those are not the key. It doesn't matter if you understand or not.

The most important thing is how to get in touch with Buddha Amitabha. Like today, some fellow practitioners here also came to tell me. Indeed, after listening to them, they will be able to develop a strong sense of identity in their hearts, because they also have this kind of feeling, and it is true that the roots of goodness can be matured. Feeling, the blessings of Amitabha Buddha, this is more important, this is the real benefit, the body and mind will change now, the daily Dharma will be filled with joy, and will truly see through, let go, and give the rest of the time as much as possible to express the grace of the Buddha. In the Three Treasures.Charity, Dharma, internal wealth, and external wealth are truly practicing the bodhisattva path, and there will be such a change.Therefore, it is also very rare for us to have these fellow practitioners here. This is also the inspiration of the virtues of our abbot Master and Master.If you really devote your heart to lead the people to practice, you can naturally feel that these people with deeper roots of goodness come to protect them, and these people are also because they feel the blessing of Amitabha, the benefits of practicing this Dharma, they really feel it, not I know a lot about theory!It is useless to understand a lot of theory.As we get older and older, our memory quickly deteriorates, and no matter how many classics you memorize, it’s useless.

Respectful excerpts from disciple Ming Yan

(XNUMX) It's rare to recite the Buddha faithfully and rely on the power of Buddha (this is not the master of the draft, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

Then the gods respect the person who responds to this vow, then the root nature is very bad, which means that after hearing it, he does not even want to be reborn, and of course he will not receive great blessings, but as long as he is chanting Buddha, he is planting the root of goodness. Therefore, Buddha Amitabha also blesses these people. In the next life, you ask for a human body, and if you want to be rich, he will give it to you!Just give you this. The gods and people can respect you, be able to give birth to a noble family, have all the roots intact, and practice the Brahma. This Brahma is to recite the Buddha, or let you continue to recite the Buddha by listening to the Pure Land Method, and keep growing your The root of goodness is not until it matures, but it is not known which life and which life has been obtained, because it is difficult not to create karma when gaining the human body, so it may be that the life is not as good as the life. This is a great risk.

Especially the noble family of Shengsheng has a blessing. You can see that many people who have a big blessing have the opportunity to hear about chanting Buddhism, but it is very difficult for you to ask them to truly practice!You ask him to come to practice together, you ask Li Jinyou to come to practice together, oops!That is really the headline news coming out tomorrow, and seeing Li Jinyou walking around and chanting Buddha, how could it be possible!It's hard to imagine!It's really hard to be rich and cultivating. You ask him to be very mindful and ask him to recite the Buddha honestly. How much money can I make in an hour by wasting time!How can it be possible to recite Buddha here? This is very difficult.Therefore, this kind of sentient beings have the worst root nature. They always don't give up and plant a seed for them first. Therefore, we now advise people, it doesn't matter if they don't listen. Amitabha Buddha is also so patient and does what all sentient beings want. Give you what you want. Anyway, this seed will be planted for him first. Even if he falls to hell in the future, he will still have a predestined condition to regenerate again.

When the Blessed One was alive, there was a family of rich and noble Brahmins. The husband liked the five desires and six things, and the wife was very devoutly reciting the Buddha. Then the wife saw the continuous karma of the husband and thought that he would fall to hell in the future, so she tried her best to save him. Thinking of many ways to recite Buddhism has no effect. You know that saving the other half is not that simple.Later, he thought of a bad strategy and threatened him that if you don't recite Buddhism and practice together with me, from now on I will not have sex with you, and refuse to have sex with you.Wow!When his husband heard it, oh!This day’s big thing, if this one doesn’t work, there’s no way it can be done!My wife has already given an ultimatum, so I have to do it.He was very reluctant to accompany his wife. Every day, two people practiced reciting Buddha together, one of them beats the big exhaust, the other knocks on the wooden fish. Then after that, the husband died soon, and the brahman died, really. Fall to hell.

It's weird how can you go to hell when you recite Buddha?Because he hasn't read it for a long time, and he is unwilling to read it, and he doesn't read it in his mouth!What he thought in his heart was five desires and six dusts!So it is impossible for him to get induction so quickly, just like we did not get induction after reading for a long time, some people...I really have induction now.The fact that there are too many inductions, if you have the opportunity to read more on the CD, you may be able to see that there are still many things that have not been mentioned, including the sentient beings in the spiritual world, and the chanting of a Buddha's name. The dog was scared away by me and was about to bite. Mine, etc..., the beings in the spiritual world are also very effective. In the early days, they didn't work when they didn't have faith, and none of the thoughts were effective. So it depends on whether we have faith.

Then he thinks like this and has no intentions, the original bad karma is so heavy, if he doesn't feel the retribution, then there is no cause and effect, right?So the previous evil retribution has already appeared, and has fallen to hell.At this time, he felt that oil pan... That oil pan, how they were bombed, and other people who had been to hell and returned there talked about that oil pan, they felt that realm. People, as long as there are people, there will be a voice in the sky, and they will call that person's name, and he will automatically bounce in the person's name and bounce into the pan.This Brahman was about to call him one by one. His feet were soft, and it was really possible for him to faint. At that time, because there were so many kinds in hell, we saw the "Hell in Disguised Picture". "It says that iron dogs, iron chains... and those people are using that chain to hit the prisoner... At this moment, suddenly someone tried to hit the prisoner with that iron chain, and he accidentally hit it. There was a clatter on the edge of the oil pan, are the fellow practitioners enlightened?Just when this Brahman screamed, he remembered the sound of utterly exhausted when he was chanting Buddha with his wife, so he unconsciously chanted Nanmu Amitabha. At this time, the hell will be bright, and he will be detached. , And everyone around him was blessed by him, and all the suffering stopped.

Just like the "Ksitigarbha Sutra", you see, fortunately, his wife forced him to do some homework, and it happened that the fate was sufficient, that fate, that was so exhausted, that the iron chain was so knocked that it hit the edge of the oil pan. , It's really a bit like a big exhausted sound.That will be involuntary. This is habit. When we are used to doing things, when similar situations come up, he will immediately follow similar reactions.I usually recite Buddha when I knock it out!At that time, he involuntarily chanted a Buddha's name, and he was out of hell right now.So no matter what, you must first plant the diamond seed for chanting Buddha.Really, in the future, if you accidentally fall into hell or fall into the three evil ways, you will still be saved.Amitabha Buddha is really magical and incredible in wisdom!The merit of his Buddhist name can penetrate into the ten worlds.There are no obstacles in the hell. This scripture makes it clear that there are no obstacles according to the ten directions. Then this is our analysis of the sixth stage. These different methods of rebirth are difficult and easy. In order to fit the beings of different roots.

Respectful excerpts from disciple Ming Yan

(XNUMX) Amitabha Buddha surpasses all Buddhas (the master of the draft has not yet finalized the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

There are differences between the deep and shallow roots of goodness in each sentient being, so if we have to analyze objectively in this way, we will know that we know how to choose, and then when we really choose, we will go deep into the door with all our heart.If we continue to deepen, not only will the future be reborn and the present can be decided, if we follow our eighteen wishes.And we can make big aspirations. I want to stand and die, or I want to sit and die. It's best to die without disease.Then you have to recite the Buddha honestly and more Buddha, because one more sentence will eliminate the karma, and then the body has to work more, try not to worry, think about a lot of things, use your brain, and try to get more physical activity. You see, the king fights iron, these It is recorded in the biography of Departures that these people who are really in good health and died without illness, you go and observe them, they are all people who are honestly chanting Buddhism.He often does some labor work, and his body needs to move. If his body moves, he will naturally have fewer delusions. This has medical evidence.Moreover, if your body moves frequently, your mood will be good and depression can be treated. This has medical evidence, so we believe in the power of Buddha according to the eighteenth wish, and we will surely die.

After that, we can further improve and make great aspirations to behave well for sentient beings.We don't want to leave sickly either!Before he died, the cancer was skinny, right?Then, if the liver and internal organs are not good, the stomach has ascites, and the stomach is swollen, it is almost bursting, how ugly!I didn't feel confident when I saw it.It is best for us to die without disease, not to drag on the sickness, and then to drag on for a long time before we finally die.Of course it will be fine after death!The complexion will improve and the body will be softer.But in fact, this is where we can work hard. It's enough to recite more Buddha, work more, and worry less.In three or five years, your health will get better and better, and it will definitely get better and better, so now I am going to do this with the door closed.I have done all these things for what I should record and talk about, and it can be considered as an explanation to everyone, and learning this lecture always requires a bit of explanation.The only thing I can do and the ability is here, that's enough!If you know how to cherish these things, and continue to cultivate on this core, it will definitely be enough for our life to go to the Paradise of Bliss.

Next, let’s look at the key point of the seventh product, "Sure enlightenment." Let’s look at a passage: "I build a transcendental aspiration, and I will be supreme. If I am unsatisfied, I will not become enlightened. Shou, all sentient beings will come to me when they hear this title.” Let’s look at these two passages, these two verses, here the seventh stage is the Dharma Zang Bhikkhu after he has made a vow, and he will make a summary.Explain his wish, using chants to explain.The first sentence, I built Chao Shi Zhi, the word "super" is particularly important.There are really more than ten Buddhas, and no Buddha has made a wish that is more complete or more special than him, so he dare to speak about the transcendental aspirations!He sent it himself. He really surpassed the Buddhas in the ten directions, so He dared to say that.Then when you make a vow, the aspiration surpasses the Buddhas, and when the fruit reaches Consummation, the result is of course also surpasses the Buddhas, and surpasses the ten directions, so the world of bliss is the most complete.Then when He said that if I become enlightened and when the retribution is present, He will use the name "Infinite Life" so that all sentient beings can make a wish and rebirth to the blissful world as long as they hear this name.So this "smell" is very important, this word.Many of the prayers of the sixth product are "hear my name", and the key is "hear my name".So the power of this name is incredible.We must study with our heart, how to pronounce this name.

We know that the key to rebirth lies in faith and vow. This is from the heart. Then the heart is truly full of sincere desire to manifest in action. In terms of matters, it is to recite the Buddha. Faith, vow, and action are one, and they are not separate.If you have faith and aspirations, you will definitely recite the Buddha.A person who can recite the Buddha faithfully must have faith in his heart and hope that he will be willing to recite the Buddha. What does he do when he recites the Buddha? It just depends on the depth of your faith.In other words, as long as one of the three rebirths is met, we can also die.He is three in one!He was originally one, so the sentient beings of the cat, the dog, and the beasts do not know how to believe in wishes, and the Pure Land Three Sutras do not understand it even more!Then why can they die?We have seen too many proofs that the parrot, those chickens, ducks, and all kinds of these animals can all die, their whole body is soft and all kinds of aura.Why do they die?I heard the Buddha name die, because the Buddha name itself has the three resources.These three conditions are that one contains many. This is what the "Hua Yan Sutra" speaks clearly about this state.We only need to know that as long as one condition is met, the other two rations will be met at the same time.Faith, aspiration, and action are one body, so especially this Buddha name has a closer relationship with us, because faith and aspiration are in the heart!Then the real practice is to recite this Buddha's name.So we must learn how to call this name.

In the process of remembrance, we can not only remember eight billion calamities of life and death felonies, eliminate disasters and avoid disasters, reduce major events, reduce trivial matters, and realize what we want, and all kinds of auspiciousness can be felt now.Even if we are to be reborn into the world of bliss, the channel and medium through which we receive the blessings of the Buddha's power through the induction of Amitabha also must pass through this name.So how to call this name so that we can recite Him happily, can recite more, and the recitation is very sensational and sensitive. This is also the place we want to learn.You see, we have to learn this thing for a lifetime, so what else should we learn?We must continue to deepen and continue to improve our joy, joy, and joy in reciting this Buddha name. Then you will naturally feel that there will be a continuous increase in merit and power, and that power will increase when you recite the Buddha. Bigger.Even if some monsters come near, you just need to say Nanmu Amitabha, and they will fly outside immediately.It is true that the strength can be continuously deepened, so if we lock this range, faith, wish, and deeds are enough for us to work hard for a lifetime, and there is not enough time.You don't need to know a lot in theory, but in practice, it is more important to work hard in this profession.

Respectful excerpts from disciple Ming Yan

(XNUMX) Buddha Amitabha has three conditions for us (the master of the draft has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

First of all, we must be able to really like to recite this Buddha name. We must have a good understanding of the merits of this Buddha name. Usually, our fellow practitioners only know, oh!The six-character Hong's name is the so-called Wandehong's name, and Wande means immeasurable.We know that there are many merits, that's it.As for what merit?I don't know, I don't feel it, then since I don't feel it, we don't correspond to him!Knowing is not the same as feeling it. We know that this Buddha name is possessed of ten thousand virtues, but do we feel these various virtues in our hearts?No, if there is, then we can benefit and use these Wonders.How can we get these benefits?First of all, we have to take it step by step to understand the merits of this name and its relationship with us. In this "Guanjing Si Tie Shu", Master Shandao tells us; why we call this name, we can feel Amitabha Dao Jiao?Because this name has three conditions with us. The condition is the condition of fate. There are three kinds of conditions. This is what other Buddhas and Bodhisattvas do not have. Only the name of Amitabha has this special relationship with us. It has these three kinds of conditions. edge.

The first is "kinship", close relatives, Amitabha is closest to us, more than the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the ten directions.Why is Amitabha the closest to us?How did this kiss?Let me describe it first. From the literal point of view, the word "pro" stands up one by one on the right side and one on the right side, right?Dear dear, close relative, we can see the word from him alone, and we can experience the realm of kindness.Standing, wood, and seeing all illustrate a scene, just like a mother standing on a tree, looking high at her child, the child who has not yet returned home, she is looking anxiously from a distance, looking at the door It's not enough, I have to run to the tree.Look farther, has the child come back?So how close this relative is!Just like a mother, she cares for her children so much, waiting for their children to come back, that kind of anxious mentality, so close, like this kind of relationship.

So why does the name of Amitabha Buddha have such a close relationship with us?Because of Amitabha, we often say that Amitabha also represents self-nature, self-nature Amitabha, so in fact, Amitabha is our self-nature.Then the Amitabha Buddha lives in our hearts. He is one with us. He is one in the first place, but we are lost and do not know the truth.So what is our relationship with Amitabha?We sentient beings also live in the heart of Buddha Amitabha, so there is no difference between the mind, Buddha, and sentient beings as one.This truth is so deep that we can't think about it and understand it, but we know that there is such a thing, we live in the heart of Amitabha, and Amitabha also lives in our heart.It's one, not two, so kind of dear!Closer to our family.

To describe the relationship between parents and parents, we are still separated by a layer. After all, our parents and us are still individuals, and the same is true for husbands and wives!Such a family, but fly separately when the disaster strikes!You go yours, I go mine, right?Still two individuals!Today, if you have no food, you will starve to death. If you want to die, you will die first. Don’t die me first. People are like this!Ordinary people are like this.Of course, there is only the kind of mother who truly has maternal love. She will sacrifice herself and save her children in times of difficulty. Therefore, mothers are often used to describe the relationship between the Buddha and us.Now the young mother is very naive!She cares about herself and her children, many.Therefore, this description seems to be increasingly inappropriate, so the relationship between Amitabha Buddha and us is so close, that is, we are ourselves!So we learned a scripture yesterday that all sentient beings regard themselves as themselves, and then they are like children of pure filial piety, loving and respecting their parents. This is how Amitabha views us. He knows the facts. We are one with him!This is the relationship between Amitabha and us.

The second condition is "proximity," because He lives in our hearts, so as long as we have a thought, this is called "proximity."When you get close, you can feel it right away.So we have to call Amitabha Buddha to come soon, and he will arrive as soon as he recites it.When we are so close, we should remember the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and wait for him to come out of hell. It may take a few seconds. Amitabha is living in our hearts, and he will respond as soon as we call.As long as there is a feeling, there is a response.Use a sense of confidence.Sincerely!We called him, and he responded immediately, so what we have to really work on is to inspire our sincerity.This is the core and most practical part. You don’t have to learn a lot of theories. That’s a waste of time, a real life-saving pure land, a true faith, no matter how deep or shallow the faith is, anyway, you’re already determined to die. People, all the scriptures and teachings can be put aside. This is a true chanting of Buddha, and everything else is a waste of time.

The Pure Land Three Sutras are just to persuade you to chant the Buddha with all your heart. If you are willing to chant Buddha with all your heart, then what else are you reading for?It is because our heart is not "honest" enough, so we need to remind us by chanting, cheer us up, encourage us, and avoid our slack.If you can really recite the Buddha, and those who recite the Buddha honestly, you must hurry up and recite one more Buddha's name. Nothing can be compared to...how can the merit of chanting be comparable to the merit of reciting the Buddha?There is no way to compare.If you recite a "Ksitigarbha Sutra", it may be destroyed by a thousand kalpas or by many kalpas.This "Guan Jing" contains the merits of chanting and chanting, which can be destroyed by many calamities.

A "Ksitigarbha Sutra" is forty minutes, and we don't need a minute or a second to recite a Buddha's name. It will destroy XNUMX billion kalpas of felony. How do you count it, of course you have to recite the Buddha!I, the person with the worst arithmetic, I can count.So to be smart is to be really good at playing a lot!It is true that the greatest benefits can be achieved easily, and those who really know how to do business will count. The greatest rate of return is to recite Buddhism. This is true.Wonder!All the merits of all the sutras and mantras of all the twelve tripartites are condensed in this name. If you recite a sutra, you will miss the others, right?

Only by reciting this name, all of them are not missed, and at the same time they are sufficient.Of course, other mantras cannot be compared with this name, which makes sense.Therefore, as long as we understand the truth of these facts, our faith will continue to strengthen, and our faith will continue to strengthen. We know that the relationship with Amitabha Buddha is so close. We can’t wait to be born into the world of bliss immediately, see Amitabha, and get close to him. .That kind of desire for bliss will continue to rise, and you are unwilling to ask you to stay for a few more years, right?We must strengthen our desire to regenerate and seek bliss, so we must constantly understand the relationship between Amitabha and us, and where is the merit of this name.

The third condition is "enhancement condition", which is the vow made through Amitabha Buddha in this name. He has the power to extinguish XNUMX billion kalpas felony, so it is called "enhancement condition."When we recite this Buddha name, not only does it help us to regenerate into a Buddha, but all current disasters can be made into small things and small things out of nothing.Because the karma has been eliminated.So do you want to study more Buddha?Yes I do!Smart people will naturally want to recite. We understand this truth. What do you want to do if you don’t recite the Buddha?Want to create a karma?You don’t have that many sins that you can kill by chanting it!Of course it is worthwhile to recite the Buddha, and the effect is better. If you naturally understand these truths, you will want to seize the time to recite the Buddha, right?

Reading willingly, not to be forced, to practice Kungfu at the beginning, and to remember how many sentences to read, and then go back together on the first and fifteenth day of the middle school.I'm afraid of missing it, and the old Bodhisattva asked me like this, oops!We go directly to understand the truth, the merits of the Buddha's name, and the relationship between Amitabha and us, then what we sense at the moment really enters our hearts.You can get benefits right now, and you can feel the joy of the Fa, the karma can be eliminated, the joy of the Fa can arise, and wisdom can continue to be inspired. This kind of induction is immediate.Those three kinds of predestined relationships—kinship, close destiny, and zengshang destiny are only the six-character red name. They have such a relationship with us and can achieve such an effect.

Respectful excerpts from disciple Ming Yan

(XNUMX) Sincerely and dedicatedly recite Amitabha Buddha's mind and light, it is a person (this master has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

In the "Dharma of Conception", Master Shandao gave a lecture. He said: "But there are people who specialize in the Amitabha Buddha. The Buddha's heart is light, always according to human beings, and reluctant to take care of it; always regardless of the other miscellaneous practitioners. "This is very important!If we only recite the name of Amitabha Buddha, it shows that we have the ultimate heart!Sincerely!Say this name with sincerity and joy, and respectfully.So naturally, Amitabha's mind is always a human being, and he is reluctant to take care of it. It protects us and waits for us all the time, and we can all receive it.But if you are a miscellaneous trader, he will not take it, because it is not that the Buddha's mind is not equal, but his light is placed in the name. How can you receive it if you don't want to?The name is the medium, this must be understood.Therefore, the scriptures in the "Guan Sutra" also say: "The light shines on the ten realms, and the sentient beings who recite the Buddha absorb it." Although this light shines on the ten realms, only the sentient beings can absorb it.Because it is through the name to convey this light to us.Otherwise, we can’t see the light. It’s invisible and imageless. If you want to grasp it, you won’t be able to grasp it. It must be conveyed through one thing. So when we know how to use our heart, faith, and respect to call the name of the present, the name The light in it is directly injected into our hearts and has an effect. You will feel the joy of the law, the karma being eliminated, the wisdom of the growth, and the peace of mind.

You see if you recite this Buddha's name carefully, your heart will feel very stable!If you use your heart to recite, calm down, and honestly say one sentence after another, you can feel these virtues, incredible.At the moment, the heart is stable and not afraid, and the restless heart also subsides.All kinds of benefits, then the mind calms down, the troubles gradually disappear, the mind is soft, and the wisdom continues to appear. These merits and benefits can indeed be obtained immediately when we call the name.It's just that most of us don't believe and dare not bear it, then if you don't believe it, you won't be able to feel it, you won't get it!He already exists! Don't you feel him!You don't need to feel him with your heart. If you don't believe or doubt it, this thought will hinder you, and you will feel that you can't feel it or receive it. It's entirely a matter of our mind.If you don't know how to recite this name, so you have to recite it with confidence, sentence by sentence, naturally these kinds of merits and benefits, you will gradually feel the same in the process of commendation.So you don’t read it, read it, and see if it works.

Respectful excerpts from disciple Ming Yan

(XNUMX) Sincerely reciting the Holy Name of Amitabha Buddha, you will be able to feel blessings (this time the drafting master has not yet set the school, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

Like my grandmother and my grandmother, she believed in Yiguandao for more than ten years. It is difficult to turn Yiguandao. She gets up at three or four in the morning every morning. There is one bow, two bows, and three bows. I asked her what are you knocking on?Then she was still chanting some curse, she said, don't say it, don't say it.They have always been like this, the rules cannot be said.Don't say it, just forget it, anyway, you just have to recite the Buddha honestly to me.I persuaded her for nearly three years before she turned around.She became a monk, because before she became a monk, she didn't believe in Buddha!There is a bit of slander.Because she was worried about me being deceived, she said, oops!That's a lie, telling you to take the money!I just asked you to take the money, because our hometown is in the south!In the early days, it was not true Buddhism. It belonged to some temples of this kind of folk belief. They had to take money to go to the temple, then settle down, and then live there, called Cai Gu, Cai Gu, so grandma misunderstood that we believe in it. The Buddha’s situation is like that, you have to take money to live.Later, I hurry up. I didn't even touch my single gold. I didn't take the single gold in the dojo or the monthly allowance. We held the money ring of not touching money.Then I deliberately took the money back to my grandma, see if I have money!The monastery gives me money!Then she slowly increased her confidence, and slowly enlightened her in two or three years, and when she turned around, she had misunderstood before.

I asked her, and I said, "If you die in the future! Where are you going?" She said, "Oh? Stupid boy, stupid boy, your grandfather will bring it!" Well!People used to say this. If you really come and take it to the ghost road, I said: "You must not go with your grandpa. You will really be finished if you go, and if you go, you will be finished! "I then slowly enlightened her, and I said, "That's not the grandfather, it's not the real grandfather, it's a lie to you, your kinsman and creditor came to lie to you, and he becomes like a grandfather! He takes you I'll really follow him right away?" Slowly instill some concepts with her, turn around, and hang a Buddha statue next to her. I tell you that you look at it every day, and you will follow him in the future.Then usually because she was chanting at the beginning, she was not diligent. Every time I went back to see her occasionally, she saw that I was back, and when she saw me coming all the way, she picked up the rosary and read it to me. , Which means that she is serious, but in fact she is not serious, because I told my aunt and stared at her to see how she was doing her chanting.My aunt will always report to me. Slowly, slowly, it's really good now, very diligent, and also dedicated to chanting Buddhism.Not before!I told her, "You have to recite more Buddha so that your feet won't hurt!" She is about XNUMX years old this year!

My great-grandmother was born in Ruixiang. She was XNUMX years old and was still farming the day before. She was in good health and died without illness. My great-grandmother.Then this grandma is still there, but she is suffering from illness, her feet hurt!Calcium deficiency... Come along with this foot pain, she will be troubled, and then she tells me, complaining: "Ah! Buddhism is not effective... You see, you said that effective Buddhism does not hurt, and now it is not painful to death. "Complain to me!Then when I heard her slander the Three Treasures and told me that it was invalid, I became anxious when I heard that, I told her, I told her very harshly, and I said, "Your body has been used for more than XNUMX people. Years, you now recite the Buddha, tell yourself whether you have diligent mindfulness? Have you recanted it seriously? How long have you been reading it? Right? You have used it for so long, and it has been used for so long. How many have you read You want to be effective immediately, is that right? Does this make sense? Do you still blame the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas for not working?".I'm very strict with her!Because I don’t want her to recreate oral trade, because we are very close!I grew up with my grandparents since I was a child. My grandfather is the head of the household. We have three generations in the same house and are very majestic, but only I can climb on top of him, so my grandparents and I are very close.

I told her, my grandma, other daughter-in-laws!I was afraid that she was terribly scared, but my grandma listened to me, so I told her that she would listen, and she would listen to her very severely.So now she will often listen to the scriptures, and then she also knows that she has to work hard. This effort is not to practice undisruptedly, but to be truly respectful and confident!You don't have the confidence to respond, and they don't owe you. If you are dissatisfied with the effect, you will complain and dislike it immediately. With your mentality, you should not get the effect, right?No respect!Slowly enlighten her.So whether we can sense the blessings of the Buddha's power depends entirely on whether we understand the merits of this Buddha's name, whether we know how to recite this Buddha's name with respect, sincerity, and confidence.As long as...then what you want to show up is to "concentrate"! Concentration, if you are mixed, then you say that there is sincerity in your heart, it is impossible, if you are mixed, it means that you think other things are good!Or if other powers are a little bit bigger, you will go to miscellaneous cultivation, and that heart is not sincere.

Respectful excerpts from disciple Ming Yan

(XNUMX) The Amitabha Buddha photographed the ten directions under the name of Guangming (The master of the draft has not yet set the school, if there are typos, please report the error, the merits are boundless!)

There is also a revelation. In the Praise to the Departure, Master Shandao’s revelation: "Bhagavan Amitabha, he made a profound vow and photographed the ten directions under the name of light. Just wait, with the power of the Buddha's will, it is easy to get rebirth." It is easy to die. What is the reason for this?We just said that you must recite the Buddha to receive blessings and induction.Because this is a vow made by Amitabha Buddha, "the original vow is a profound vow", which is to photograph the ten directions with this bright name.Blessed by Amitabha, the way to attract sentient beings is through this bright name.Master Shandao put light and name together as a noun, which means that light and name are one.

The ten directions are photographed under the name of bright, but it makes faith to ask for thoughts. As long as we have confidence, we believe that everything in this name can be solved. "One form at the top, down to ten sounds, one sound, etc., with the power of the Buddha's will, it is easy to get to life."As long as "one form on top" means that when we encounter this Buddha's name, we begin to confess our minds and begin to contemplate honestly. "Down to ten tones, one beep", and some heard them at the end of life. Ten tones or one beep are fine. It is not necessary to have ten or ten thoughts. No, it is very clear here, "down to ten tones, one beep. And so on, with the power of the Buddha's will, it is easy to get rebirth."Even the death of life, such a difficult matter, can be resolved once you claim the Buddha.What's more, how can we not solve the various disasters we have now?

If we are confident enough, don’t talk about children having fever, hardships, rebelliousness, poor teaching, husband’s affair, wife’s ill-witness, all kinds of disasters, and house restlessness. All these big and small things are still okay. It can be solved by this Buddhist name.If you have the confidence to pray for the blessings of Amitabha Buddha, you are praying to Amitabha Buddha during your meditation. Honestly pray for him to help you resolve all the disasters. Even if you ask for wealth and wealth, ask for children and children, it is better than the "Four Precepts of the Fan". That's too much!You can change your destiny according to it, not to mention relying on the Buddha, the king of the Buddha.Even some karmic diseases, those possessed by relatives and creditors, and even people who have been crazy for a long time, these are all karmic diseases.There is almost no way to solve these things, and the doctors are also helpless, and Buddhism can be solved.Even the resurrection after death, there are such records, the dead died, Nian Nian Nian came back to life, depending on what you ask, Amitabha will fulfill your wishes, as long as your sincerity is enough, you will respond to your requests.

We have also seen a record that there is an old Bodhisattva in the mainland who has been crazy for more than XNUMX years, and then she does not believe in Buddha, but she has a daughter-in-law who is very filial and is a devout Buddhist chanter... She is crazy like this, marrying After that, I took care of her, fed her three meals a day, and gave her face wash... these, in and out several times.Every time I enter her room, I will tell her and say a Buddha name to her, Nanwu Amitabha!Read her a Buddha's name.Then, this...Her mother-in-law often listened to it. After hearing it for a long time, she felt that she was scolding her. People who are crazy are often suspicious. She feels that people want to beat her and they want to scold her. That's how crazy people are. child.

In the end, she suspected that her daughter-in-law was scolding her, and she was very angry when she was scolding her by reciting the Buddha name. Then, as soon as the daughter-in-law went in, no matter what the food was delivered to her, as soon as her daughter-in-law read it to her She said three sentences to Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha, Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha, Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha, Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha, scolded her back like this, and scolded her with the name of Buddha.After cursing for a while, it turned out to be better, more than XNUMX years!I've been crazy for more than XNUMX years, but it's all right, just inexplicably.

Then, in that place in the mainland, you know that there are many people in the mainland, and there is something that people in the whole village know!Those neighbours who heard this madman healed after being mad for so long felt unbelievable. Everyone ran to watch and hid in that window, because the madman sometimes beats and swears, so people don’t dare to come close. Hiding in the window and watching.As a result, once, this person is healed!She sews clothes in it. She will do things to sew clothes by herself. While sewing, she sees people in the window. Many people hide there. Groups of people come to see this person. Is it good?Good fake?As a result, she saw a bunch of people coming when she was sewing the clothes. She was not angry. She said, "What do you look at? Just recite the Buddha!" ​​She would save them and persuade them to recite the Buddha. That's it. The child is inexplicable just fine.

After I got better, because I received the blessing of the Buddha, I was grateful to persuade others to recite the Buddha and give them a proof.This doesn't make sense!You said that it doesn’t make sense to use a scientific and medical perspective, but it’s really good.So if we ask, we recite this Buddha's name, and ask without induction, it means that we don't have the sincere and sincere understanding of the Buddha's name, and it's not that the Buddha's name is not working. Just reciting two sentences will blame the Buddha's name for not working, then you really are!You are the only way to blame your mentality for being able to be spiritual. Being able to be spiritual is really inappropriate, it's too unreasonable.

The kind of sincerity means that you are devoted to everything, you can let go of everything, even your life.Some people say that I have made a vow to be a vegetarian and live a long life. Then I hope that with this merit, I can seek to increase the life span of my parents, or to increase what you want, you can make a vow.Even if I would rather give up my life, this is sincere.The more you give up and the greater your wish, the more you are sincere. The more you improve, the greater your sensitivity.It's not that you talk with your mouth, and then nothing is changed, and nothing is paid, that is not true sincerity.

Respectful excerpts from disciple Ming Yan

(XNUMX) The name of the Buddha is the place where Amitabha’s soul, life, merit, and Dharma world (the master of the draft has not been finalized, if there is a typo, please report the error, the merit is boundless!)

So tomorrow, we will continue to talk about how to be able and with what mood to call this name.We now know that there are various merits in this name, and the relationship between the name and us has three conditions: kinship, close relationship, and increased relationship.Then we already know very clearly that it must be through the name of sincerity to be able to understand what is required, and even the things of the departed life can be completed, and it must be through this Buddha's name.This is very clear and the reason is very clear.But how to read and what mood to read, in fact, these are all guided by us through the guidance of Master Shandao, as well as our own experience in the process of naming to share with you. In fact, you only need to read honestly to truly understand the Buddha's name and Our relationship, the merits of the Buddha's name, the more you recite, the more profound you will naturally understand, and you can understand it by yourself.

Tomorrow we can put forward some for your reference, and have a direction to guide you on how to call this name. First of all, we must remind everyone to let go of the previous concepts and do not use it as a tool for practicing Kungfu. It's hard to sense.You will work hard at best until you finally get samādhi, just like you are cultivating samādhi!Just choose a state of being. This Buddha name is no different from other states of being. You may observe the sunset, observe...just like the water, earth, and sunset views in the "Guanjing", you can practice a method at will, If you use an object as the object of cultivation and an object as the object of cultivation, then this Buddha name is nothing special!You did not really enlighten and use the merits of his name, and you did not activate the merits of this name at all. You just used him on the surface with the name of the Buddha. In fact, you have not inspired the inner merits of the name of the Buddha. It is a pity.

Regarding him as cultivating concentration, of course this is also a virtue. It is not wrong. You should recite the Buddha well, practice concentration, and subdue your delusion after a long time. It is like a stone that suppresses the grass and suppresses the delusion. It has this effect!Slowly, slowly work into a film, with a little bit of concentration, this is okay.The problem is that during this process, you don't have much joy in the Fa, and you will read it very hard. This is the experience of people who have come here.Because we haven't felt this Buddha name yet, you still don't like to read it willingly. If you don't feel it, then if you don't feel it, then you just use it to cultivate concentration. Of course you will feel cold.

So once we can truly understand the name, the relationship we just talked about with us, and even the so-called Wande, in fact, this name is equivalent to the entire life of Amitabha, his soul, and all the merits, all placed in Among this name.He is alive. He is not a dead thing. He is the object of cultivation. He is alive. He is the life of Amitabha. He lives alive in this name. If we understand this fact to remember, we will follow He is very close. You are communicating with a living object, not a cold thing. So with what kind of mentality you use to recite this Buddha's name, different mentalities will have different feelings and different results.

You can use it to cultivate concentration, but because the effect is... not what we want to convey to everyone, it is not the method that Master Shandao taught us. The method that Master Shandao taught us is to follow Amitabha from the heart. , By chanting the name of the correct chanting, with the correct intention, directly intimacy with Amitabha Buddha, this is the best practice.No... It's not like doing the hard work, to repair the branches and leaves from the surface; this is to repair from the root, so the effect is very good.So first of all, we have to let go of some of the previous practices before we can improve again!Then put in some new and different things.

Tomorrow, we will guide everyone. There are several different mentalities that can help us to be happy. When we recite the Buddha, we will be able to interact with this Buddha sign, that is, to interact with Amitabha. .Soon, this power of merit will be available soon. As long as we master the method, you will have immeasurable merit in every sentence of Buddha's name. Of course, every sentence can produce results. This is inevitable. 

Okay, let's study here first.Amitabha!
