Chapter One: See through the method of letting go of the five turbid worlds

Good evening, fellow practitioners, Amitabha!

Today's karma is very special and special. If it is said that it is special, it is not ordinary karma, but is related to the destiny of the Blessed One who will teach the Dharma for more than XNUMX years in the future. Especially for the Buddhist practitioners who have already aspired to live in the Western Pure Land, this is today. Karma is also the key to determine whether you can regenerate a Buddha in this life, and know how to practice the bodhisattva path after you have established your faith in rebirth.This cause is the outline of a very important thesis that we are going to record in the studio in Muar, Malaysia today, for all living beings who are related to the Pure Land Dharma for more than nine thousand years. solution.The title of this essay is called "Pure Land Religious Dao Ci Di Guang Lun". In the next few days, we will make a key introduction to the outline of this essay. If we have sufficient causes and conditions in the future, we will make a detailed introduction. I will introduce the whole thesis to everyone.

The outline structure of this theory, I follow the traditional teaching style, that is, it is divided into three parts. The whole thesis is divided into three parts: sequence part, authentic part and circulation part.First, we will briefly introduce the whole thesis to help fellow practitioners to quickly grasp the whole picture of our large and small multiplication Buddhism and the Pure Land Special Method.The preface to the "pure land plus walking path" is to talk about the fundamental teachings of our Hinayana and Mahayana, suffering, emptiness, impermanence, and non-self. This content can help those who have not made the effort to learn Buddhism truly see the truth in our world and can At the same time, it can help those who have already made the heart to learn Buddhism can truly see through and let go, truly believe in aspirations, and honestly recite Buddhism.

Many of our veteran fellow practitioners know that one of his mentors Master Zhang Jia once passed the six words to the old monk: "See it, let it go."These six characters are actually the content covered in our Pure Land Jiaxing Dao. Although there are only a few short characters, they are all included in the scope of cultivation from the original mind to the Tathagata.Therefore, a truly wise Buddhist disciple, as long as we can grasp the scope of "seeing through and letting go", we only think about how to constantly see through and let go. This scope alone can help you master the entire Dharma until you learn. Achievement does not necessarily require three collections and twelve books, each sutra and each theory must be cultivated.Many practitioners are familiar with these six words, but most people ignore them and don’t know how to continue to deepen them in this area, so that those of us who study the Buddhism practice this simplest Buddhism practice hard, haha. The key problem is that we didn’t do it in this part; we didn’t really "see through and let go", so we have to study hard this time, especially the part of the old practitioners on the Pure Land and the Path. In the past, we ignored this part. Practicing practice, so chanting Buddha cannot benefit from it.

The second part of authenticity is "that is, the way to become a Buddha." This is the main part of the pure land.In the past, I have also recorded the essence of the Three Classics of the Pure Land in Muar area, and all the fellow practitioners who have studied can quickly build the confidence to die.This time I will talk about authenticity, "that is, the way of becoming a Buddha". In addition to briefly introducing the pure land method, it also needs to go deeper and improve in this area, helping us to go deeper in the part of faith and willingness. .I divided it into three paragraphs in the part of "the way of becoming a Buddha". This paragraph is "rebirth and meditation", which is based on the XNUMX vows issued by Amitabha Buddha. It talks about the condition of rebirth. If we can truly master the content of this aspect of resources, then we will be able to build confidence in rebirth right now.When we recite the Buddha, we want to live in the world of bliss. It’s not like most people misunderstand that only one or two people out of XNUMX can go. In fact, the Patriarch’s great virtue has also said that, as the Master Yongming Yanshou said, we reciting the Buddha believe and wish to recite the Buddha. It is true that death can be achieved by tens of thousands of people, and this confidence does not have to wait until the deathbed to be determined, but can be determined in the present.

The second paragraph, "Consequence of Consummation," talks about what we will look like after we have established confidence in rebirth now.The changes in the body and behavior that appear after faith will be like the blessings of lightness and happiness in the XNUMX vows of the "Blessed Life Sutra". "Light" is the light of Amitabha Buddha. After the Buddha's light is blessed, we can communicate with Amitabha Buddha, and after being able to sense it, our hearts are stable and happy.From this vow, we can prove that the retribution of the Buddha is not seen until after death, but what the blessing of Amitabha Buddha is said. When we are really exposed to the blessing of Amitabha, we can feel it right away. Get this result.Many of our fellow practitioners have been able to realize that after we rebirth and build up our confidence, the whole person’s body and mind will be happy every day, very relieved and stable, and will be transformed into very compassionate, and the mind and nature will be very different. This is a very difficult change to learn from other sects, because if you learn on your own, many fellow practitioners know that our habits since the beginning of the tribulation are very serious, and it may take ten years to change a small problem. In eight years, this habit will reappear again when we are not paying attention, not to mention breaking the troubles and enlightening compassion. This is very difficult. Only by the Buddha's consummation and blessing can we be reborn. , So if we study the Pure Land Method today, we will be able to feel such a great reward in the present.

The third part is about "believe and follow the path", which is to introduce the way we recite the Buddha and practice the path of the Bodhisattva.This is divided into the upper class, the middle class and the lower class. The three levels are different. Because each person has different roots, different roots, different levels of belief, and different levels of belief, so his transformation looks different.Some people have received the powerful blessings of Buddha, and they are reborn right now, a XNUMX-degree transformation, the most direct thing is to let go of everything in the moment, let go of the body and mind, that is, really see through and let go. , Consummation right now, it can be done.How does it look like?It means that you will become a monk in your body and mind, and you will make a wish to show the appearance of a monk, because since you have seen everything and everything is put down, of course you will no longer be obsessed with your hairstyle, your clothes, your food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Pursue these things, let go of everything, and being a monk is to let go of it completely, and you can practice wholeheartedly and cultivate blessings and wisdom all day long by showing the appearance of a monk.So you can see how strong or weak you feel about the blessings of Buddhism.

The second paragraph of "Sergeant Way" talks about protecting the law at home to do its part.Don’t think that it’s easy to protect the Dharma at home. It seems that we Buddhist laymen belong to the Dharma at home, but it is not necessarily true.Many people just mix as a lay protector in Buddhism, and they may not really have a heart, or some people want to do it and don’t understand how to protect according to the law. They often protect themselves based on their own habits, faults and knowledge. In Buddhism, the more you do, the more trouble you get, the more you do right and wrong, the more you do, the results are completely inconsistent with the results you expect, and you will lose the Taoist mind in the end.If through the blessings of the Buddha we truly have faith in the death, you will be able to do the work of protecting the Dharma with joy and feel real blessings.So how to protect the Three Jewels like the Dharma?We will explain in detail later.

The third paragraph is "secrets", thinking about paying off debts.This means that some people have too heavy karma. The so-called prodigal son turns his head. Even though he has felt the blessings of Buddhism and believes that he can rebirth, he feels the transformation of his body and mind, but because of the heavy karma habits, The roots of goodness are too weak, so he can’t make his mind to become a monk, and he can’t do his duty to protect the Dharma at home. He will show a form of redeeming the merits and repenting and repenting, focusing only on self-interest and judgment. Altruistic.However, this is better than continuing to cause evil, so as long as those who are evil and evil, as long as they can feel the blessing of the Buddha, they can at least do this, can repent and reform, and stop committing evil.

The above sums up these three parts. If we have not yet made these changes in the Buddhist studies, we have not made the effort to become a monk, nor do we make the effort to protect the Dharma at home, and we have not repented and reformed often, then it means that we have not truly entered the Pure Land. The realm of the Dharma does not receive the blessings of Buddha power. It is dangerous to be able to regenerate into a Buddha at the end of life like this. It may not be possible to die. We must observe the state of our studies before we go. After sending your mind to the Buddha, whether there are these transformations in your body and mind, we will give you an introduction in the future and guide you to make a comparison.

Finally, in the part of the circulation division "The Way of Victory Bodhisattva", we further talk about the higher levels of the Way of Practicing Bodhisattva.Many people know that we have to practice generosity, precepts, patience, diligence, meditation, and wisdom. The most basic thing is to practice generosity. Whether we become a monk at home, we must start with generosity.We have actually started to practice the bodhisattva path by learning generosity, but many old practitioners can’t feel the joy of the Dharma, the blessings, and the merits in the process of doing generosity. The problem is that we don’t know how to use our heart and don’t know the right way. .Therefore, in this part, we specifically propose to guide fellow practitioners on how to truly achieve merit and merit in the process of donation. The main method is based on the "Virtue Zun Fuxian" in the second article of the "Blessed Life Sutra". To learn according to the standards of a virtuous bodhisattva, this is the practice of the highest-level bodhisattva path, so it is called the "Shengyi Bodhi Path."

This standard is the three-wheeled emptiness that we usually hear, and the three-wheeled emptiness is used to enter the void without wishing. According to this level of realm, it is the universal ten wish to learn six paramita.This standard is that you have entered emptiness, from the emptiness to create all dharma, cultivate all good, and cut off all evil.Generally, we chanting Buddhas seldom have the opportunity to learn this level, because chanting Buddhas do not pay attention to enlightenment, and this part is actually Dharmakaya Bodhisattva Samantabhadra, which is the standard for those who have attained emptiness to be able to be held. So we I usually hear the explanation of the Pure Land Method, and usually there is no in-depth explanation in this part. The general master probably said that this part is also basically carried over by name and form, but how to implement it when we perform six degrees and ten wishes in life , To combine the principles of emptiness, this part of the practice will have fewer opportunities to learn.This time we especially pointed out in this theory that not every one of us who teaches Buddha has to know how to use emptiness to practice. Even if we don’t understand it after learning, it doesn’t matter. We can still practice if we can. Of course it's better to get in!why?You are a great bodhisattva right now, and your practice is also six degrees and ten vows, but the rewards you feel are not comparable to ordinary people. It is the boundless rewards of the great bodhisattva, and this merit is very complete.This is a brief introduction to the outline of the preface and circulation of this theory.

Next, I will talk about the origin of my writing this paper.The reason for writing this paper was in Muar last year. When I was recording videos and discs, I mentioned to fellow practitioners the year 2012, because the old monk Jingkong urged us to recite Buddhism and fellow practitioners, and it’s better to put it on December 12st. The prediction of global disasters is regarded as true, and it is regarded as the date of our death, and the evidence will be collected soon. Therefore, those of us who believe in Buddhism are obedient and obedient. We can take this opportunity to enjoy the blessings and chant the Buddha with one heart.In the past few years, I have been running around at home and abroad. Although I have formed a lot of Dharma attachments, I am also very happy with the Dharma, but I have less time to work hard on my own.In fact, I like meditation very much, because I can appreciate the fun of meditation very much. Just this year, the cause and destiny are sufficient. I am going to focus on walking in the middle of 21. I will not go out and worship the Buddha every day. It’s not bad to have lived as a fairy and hermit!Karma is also sufficient, and I can fulfill my wish most of the time.

After leaving Malaysia and returning to Taiwan last year, we successfully established a meditation dojo in eastern Taiwan. The entire dojo can be settled in one or two months, and then we can start doing homework. We are very happy every day. , I am looking forward to it. Of course I can’t say that I am looking forward to the disaster. I am looking forward to my death as soon as possible. But in this process, I actually think that everything is the best arrangement of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Maybe I still have Dharma conditions with all living beings, so there is One day, I received a letter in my e-mail box. It was a layman, a layman who practiced the Dharma. He was a very good layman.He is Xiu Secret and I am Xiu Pure Land. We usually seldom interact, but we had some fate. Suddenly he sent me an e-mail, inviting me to go to Facebook to join him as a friend and become his Facebook page. My friend, I was completely unfamiliar with Facebook at the time.A few years ago, a layman suggested that I should have the opportunity to promote the Dharma on Facebook, but I didn’t even think about it at the time. It was already a few years ago. At this time, this layman who practiced the Secret Dharma appeared again to write. The letter came to invite, so I just let it happen. It’s really amazing. I think that everything has been arranged for me by Buddhas and Bodhisattvas since I studied Buddhism. We don’t usually contact this person, and he is a tantric practitioner. He also knew that I repaired the Pure Land, and it was impossible to move with him.So I took advantage of this cause and started to go to Facebook to explore how to operate.

It’s only because of Facebook at the beginning. The so-called Facebook is an online platform where everyone can apply for an account. Its main function is to put the bits and pieces of your life, photos, text, and videos in it. It is convenient for your family and friends to contact, because some relatives and friends live all over the world, you have to make phone calls and you have to pay for it. This is all free, and you can also play videos, photos and texts, which is very convenient for everyone to communicate. Its main function is this , So when I first joined, I also put some photos to introduce our Taitung Dojo, because our Taitung Dojo does not have any activities now, so just put some photos, Taitung’s natural scenery is very beautiful, and We drank spring water and ate our own organic vegetables. It was really a life of the gods.But I can’t seem to be too leisurely. I originally wanted to stop my feet and recite the Buddha and wait for my death during this year. Even if the mission in this life is completed, it’s because of this reason that I went to Facebook. Everyone saw me introducing the situation in Taitung. And after my personal profile, many fellow practitioners were very happy after reading it, so some people came to ask for the Fa, and I didn’t originally want to go to Facebook to promote the Fa, but some people came to ask for the Fa, and it was not just a question or two. It’s a question but hope that I can teach systematically, wow!This faction is too hard for this task!Because if there is a systematic teaching, it won’t be three or two days. If you don’t agree, it’s like you don’t want to go, because someone wants to ask for the law and not just one or two people. Later, I decided to spend half of my time. I was originally. One year, if you worship and recite the Buddha all day in a year, then the allowance for my rebirth is terrible!Now this is cut in half.

Then I began to write articles one after another on my experience gained over the past ten years. I have to rewrite and retype every article of this article, but I don’t just take old things and paste them.This class will last for three years and is scheduled for three years, but I first said that if I die in 2012, then the class will not be opened, and then I will wait until I come back. So what is the class I am taking now?It’s been nearly ten months since March of this year. You have never heard of participating in a Buddhist class. You started the class ten months before the class because my start date is fixed. On January 2013, 1, if we have not passed away, we will start the class again, and I have another purpose of extending the pre-class preparation time. Our class is designated as the "Pure Land Religious Path No. 1 Guanglun Class", and I hope to participate in this Everyone in the class is able to become a Buddha and will surely achieve it. Don’t retire halfway. This is a pure land specialization class. If the cause is not mature enough, and those who are not enough for the root cause, it will be difficult to achieve this goal. .

You see, there are many courses in our Buddhist dojo, don’t they all come in and out?Everyone comes to travel and visit, and they just leave. Sometimes there are many people who don't even say goodbye.Our class originally signed up 2014 people, because most people on the Internet don’t study Buddhism, and there are also posts on other platforms. If it’s about those who are in love, there are many people who like it, we talked about it. It's pure Buddhism, so in the early stage it was probably dozens of people who liked it. (As of XNUMX, thirteen platforms have been added, and the total number of people who have been exposed to French posts every week is about tens of thousands.) Some lay people have written articles, they write very good French, and many are quite famous The same is true for angry mages. The average number of posts they have posted is less than a hundred, maybe dozens of people, at most more than one hundred, that’s more, and mine is one of them. Most of them are more than one hundred likes, sometimes more than two hundred.On my birthday, I also received four hundred congratulatory cakes. The number of people who joined me as a friend has reached the upper limit of XNUMX. In a short time, it has reached XNUMX. It can be seen that the Dharma relationship between me and sentient beings is quite broad. Yes, I have had a lot of fate in my past life, but even though there are many people who press likes, in our opinion, there are not many people with more than one hundred, one or two hundred people, and this is very stable. Every day, every post is posted. At least these people will participate in the study.

At the beginning of the general class, there were almost XNUMX people who signed up. Among the XNUMX people, because of the pre-class preparation part, in order to achieve the goal I just talked about, the review is very strict, not everyone can register. Enrollment, but you have to write a report first. They have written it. We also have fellow practitioners at the scene today. What report do you write?It is the focus of the study in the forty-eight vows that I have circulated in the past, because the forty-eight vows are the most important foundation!This is actually a kind of skill of my teaching, it is a kind of encouragement. In fact, you are already learning, but I regard it as a scope of review for pre-class preparation, so fellow practitioners have to go through the process of writing reports. On the one hand, they have already made them really learning. On the other hand, I can see their dedication to the Pure Land Method and the degree to which it corresponds. Is he really willing to make a wish to live in the Paradise of Bliss? If you want to worship others with incense, if they want to die, he will die with them. Many people live in the bliss world but don’t know why. He just knows that this world is very bitter and doesn’t know why to go. This is a kind of escape. Psychology, none of this is true, so you have to study the scriptures. After reading the forty-eight vows, you really have a very familiar fate with Amitabha, and then you have a good understanding of the situation of the death. If this is the case, even if it is passed The first step is the test review.

You probably have never heard of having to go to a class so troublesome, so what’s my current image? I’m a toughest mage, but I’m also very compassionate. They all said that I’ve never seen such a rigorous mage. The strictness is only at the forefront. We set this rule first. From now on, everyone will be very relaxed and comfortable in studying. It has been ten months now, and they have already laid the foundation. Twenty of those who are actually admitted to the Guanglun special training class personal.Some of the people who failed to pass I just talked about have been slowly eliminated, and some are retreating on their own, that is, people who I just talked about going to leave and don’t even say goodbye. Everyone has a different motivation to sign up. You don’t want to. I think that those of us who are in class have good roots like our Buddhist learners, and some are just fun to sign up and see, so when he leaves, he doesn’t even talk about it, and some even have bad intentions. On the surface I’m here to study, secretly I want to come here to engage in interpersonal relationships. I see that I’m quite popular here to make some friends, so I also stipulated in the class rules that no alms are allowed, and I don’t accept offerings, and no public allocations are made. Account number, because some people will tell fellow practitioners privately, what scriptures I am printing now, you also come to help the printing, we have a Fa conference there, you also come to please please, then, in this case, our special training class will be at the end It has become a miscellaneous class, a platform for communication rather than a dojo for studying Buddhism, so these rules must be set first, and some people who are not really practicing will feel that there are so many rules and they will retreat.Therefore, in our class, we must be able to pass the tests. So far, I have been studying smoothly with us in the specialized classroom, and I can definitely feel my joy and improvement in the Dhamma, because the Pure Land Dharma is originally The practice is very simple, but the difficulty lies in it. Our foundation, that is, our karma must be eliminated first. What is this foundation? "Respectful heart", when the respectful heart expands, you will follow the teachings and you will abide by the rules.

Our wide-ranging class stipulates that there are five days in a week to have online classes. You can decide the time. You can only go online when you have time. When you are online, you only need to write our post. After you read it, write your thoughts and leave a message, then you will know that you have come to class. , You have to check in. At the beginning, it’s not there yet, and everyone is still mixed up, so these people are also masters. They are trained slowly one by one. Everyone’s problems are different. Slowly and slowly, they are not good. The habit of correcting, and I am very strict, so the image will become the most severe mage.For example, you must go online at least five times a week. If you don’t participate, people who haven’t reached five days will have to make up classes. At the beginning, some people will get mixed up. If you want to say that there are so many people, the master may not notice, or Saying he doesn’t care at all, people in the world are very used to being unruly, and he himself feels nothing. Just like I said just now, some people dropped out and didn’t say that you have signed up. If you say you don’t participate in this class, Before the class starts, you have to drop out, you just need to explain in my message, because our class is completely unconditional teaching, and it is very free. In fact, teaching on Facebook, it seems that there is no one like me. One way, because Facebook is generally just a form of communication and entertainment. Other masters are also. At most, I write short articles in French. I also write the entire article, and it is a systematic teaching, so there are some, I just talked about some people who are not accustomed to all kinds of restrictions. If these people who sign up are going to drop out, I have asked at least to declare in the message, but I didn't even talk about it.In my practice, I must implement these rules that I have set, so it makes people feel that I am very strict, because I will always investigate the bottom line, and the person who wants to drop out of school did not make a statement. Later I found that such a person is pretty brutal. There are many people, so I want to know why, have I not received a notification?Don't know our rules?If you want to withdraw from school, you must make a statement, because although we are teaching unconditionally, this is due respect to the Three Jewels. What we do, especially our practice, is to demand from the details and ask ourselves, then the people we teach, I also need to ask others to do it. This is to abide by the rules, so I keep a close eye on it.Later, I found out that many people were guilty of this problem. He didn’t come to class and didn’t declare that he would quit school. So I posted another post and finally wanted, and once again announced that if he wants to quit school, none of the people who did not declare will not be in this life. You can take part in the specialized class I set up again for a lifetime!Everyone sees a lifetime, wow!It's scary!Master, you are too strict!It seems that you have made this little mistake. I will turn my face with you for a lifetime. In fact, it is not a lifetime. We have two parts, one is specialization and the other is dynamic. I mean that you can't participate in specialization courses for a lifetime. , Refers to our broad theory class, this is not open to the outside world, only the practitioners of the broad theory class can enter this club to take classes, which refers to this part.It doesn't matter if you want to drop out of school, because everyone has different karmic factors, some because of heavy karma, and some because the law hasn't responded. Then you can go to Facebook's dynamics to rejoice, or it is okay.But many people are shocked when they write that they can no longer participate in this special training class I opened in their lifetime. Everyone's eyes are wide open. They also leave a message to ask Master if you made a mistake?The reaction was very strong, but what is my purpose for doing this?We want everyone to be vigilant, we must do what we say as a human being, and we must abide by the rules. You have signed up today, and you are responsible for the cause and effect of your words and deeds, right?So if you are not in class, you must declare that this is our previous requirement. Can't you do such a simple thing?This is just learning virtue. Many people don’t have this habit and think it’s a trivial matter. It’s nothing if I don’t go to class anyway. Maybe they have various reasons. Later I really determined that they did not do it on purpose, but at all. There is no concept of observing the rules, so there is no respect. There are many such people. It can be seen why we are not able to study well. It is because this part of the problem is wrong, so I have spent a long time doing pre-class preparations. , The main thing is to make up this part for everyone first, otherwise you will not be able to follow the teachings to teach any method in the future, because our thoughts are changing from time to time, and karma will often appear, so you will not be able to make a long-term mind You may be sick today or I’m not happy today, so I won’t come and don’t say anything. That will make us confused and affect the atmosphere of other practitioners’ learning. So these rules are very important.

Later, I found out that after repeated announcements, some people were very skinny and did not come to declare that they had dropped out. I will continue to investigate and ask our teaching assistants to notify them by mail one by one. If you don’t want to go to class, you have to come to declare otherwise, you won’t be there for the rest of your life. You can participate in any special courses taught by Master in the future. At this time, people came to my message to announce the reason for dropping out. Of course, there are a lot of good reasons. What makes me very strange is that among these people It's not that kind of bad character!Some people who seem to be very good, some are bosses, and some are housewives... and these people are not unwilling to learn the Fa with us, they still often like me in the dynamic posts, and they can tell from the comments that they are right. Our Fa is very impressed with the content of the posts I posted, and is very corresponding. Her praise is not just to be obedient, but to write out the content of the praise, which is really inspired by this Fa. , And then write down the emotional feelings. Such a person actually wants to drop out of school and did not make a statement. It is not that she has a bad relationship with us, nor is it that she will not come after she does not study the Fa. That is not the case. People are so unruly. They are all grown-ups. It can be seen that this part is indeed the most important and most important foundation for us as practitioners.Facts have proved that all the fellow practitioners in our community have undergone great changes over the past period of time. After the change, you can see it in the comments. There is really an atmosphere of meeting and understanding. You see In our Liuhejing, let’s not talk about achieving Liuhejing. In our current dojo or some of the dojos we have visited before, have you seen the situation of seeing and understanding?Seeing and understanding means that the knowledge is very consistent, I am afraid not!Ten people and ten opinions.As for our general dojos, as far as the dojos of chanting Buddhism are concerned, our learning goals are very clear, right?To live in the world of bliss by "faith, willingness and action", the direction of this learning is very clear. It should be possible to see and understand, but it is not. It can be seen that although everyone has been practicing together for a long time, have they really walked on the same path? Where is the problem?No one teaches, they are all self-taught!It’s just watching the CD to study, so everyone will have their own opinions. Everyone feels that their understanding is correct. No one teaches that although the direction of our dojo is very clear, it’s because after all, everyone is new to learning and has not yet enlightened. You must have your own understanding. When this understanding is wrong, no one will directly point it out to you in time, and this person must be able to practice the Pure Land method steadily and have enough weight. If the same They are all lay priests, so I’m afraid it’s also very difficult. Among the XNUMX people in our community, we have been tested. In the end, these XNUMX people stayed. Everyone has formed a very good relationship with Dharma. At the same time, because of this very good period. Therefore, their respect for Fa-study is gradually revealed. It is revealed in the rules. They are able to follow all the rules I have set. If this is the case, the progress will be very fast.

In fact, among these twenty people, there are also people from all walks of life. From the age of eighteen without a boyfriend to the old Xiu who was in his sixties, he used to be Wiener in Buddhism. These old nuns and women. Everyone has them, and they also have different perceptions. How can they be in a few months? Now everyone’s comments and thoughts are very consistent. I don’t need to watch it anymore. The first time I watched, it was really It's very hard. I often have to get up in the middle of the night. I used to wake up at four o'clock at the alarm clock, often because of what happened in the past two days and whose karma is now present again!I was hungry in my heart to solve them quickly, and I would automatically wake up at two or three o’clock to deal with these things. At first, it was hard to teach, but it didn’t take long for me to correct the habitual problems, and I really understood the teaching methods and practices I gave them. , It's easier.

Of course, these people really wanted to learn, otherwise I would have been scolded and run away, because I have scolded everyone, they used words to slap the board, so it won’t be light to fight, so a beating is not a beating. Just to wake up, these people are not bad, because after a period of review, these elites stayed, unable to fight and woke up as soon as they were beaten, and my habits were immediately alert to me. Suddenly, I felt strange that these old, weak and disabled soldiers in the past, Why did they all become elites all of a sudden, they seem to have become Tone people, now it is easy to teach, when you make a mistake, just a little bit, telling that one person can understand all the others, maybe the person involved is not enlightened yet. The people next to them were all enlightened first, and they knew how to vigilantly introspect themselves, so they slowly built up very similar opinions.Of course, it is not possible that everyone is exactly the same, because the realm is different, but you will know at a glance that it is really the atmosphere of the special training class. Everyone can master the correct practice of the Pure Land Method. Therefore, the atmosphere is happy and harmonious. There will be causes and destinies in the future. They will properly initiate the predestined relationship and give fellow initiates a visit to the school.In fact, they all feel that although classes have not yet started, they feel as if they are ready to graduate. Their benefit is like this, because although we plan to prepare before class, my teaching method is completely unreserved. In fact, it really is. It is possible to graduate, but it is reasonable to say that it is possible to graduate, but why do we have to set a three-year course, except that I will re-use this thesis recitation method to organize the entire content of our Pure Land Method as a teaching. In addition to the textbooks, the most important thing during the three years is to help you cultivate and cultivate for a long time.

If you think about it, our requirements are not high. There are only five classes a week, and you can go online five times. You can check in for five minutes at a time. It’s as simple as that, but they are very hardworking and hardworking. The computer is learning. This is not playing video games, but learning. They are self-conscious and very motivated. Why are they so motivated? Because they are all involved in Dharma and Xi, Fu and Hui, and they don’t like to engage in the world’s reincarnation karma. , Because you really understand the truth and really taste the joy of the Fa, you will naturally change, so you can prove it to everyone, not just one or two people, many fellow practitioners are like this.In fact, we only need to abide by this rule for five days a week, even if you just punch the card, greet everyone, and write a message, this merit is incredible. Why?Because we learn by ourselves, the most difficult thing is uninterrupted and uninterrupted. This is very difficult. The old monk Jingkong often talks about what we want, or whether we have doubts, intermingled, uninterrupted, this is the key to success. , If you don’t have a teacher to point you, and point out your habits and problems in time, if you don’t have fellow practitioners, and you learn from each other all the time, might you remember to recite a Buddha's name every day?You don’t see a single sentence, you may forget it, as if you haven’t thought of a Buddha for many days.This is because when I was a layman before, there will always be a period of time. You may be particularly busy during this period. What are you busy with?There must be karma to test you, it may be adversity, it may be prosperity, it will make you faint and forget to recite Buddha. Everyone may have had such experience, so in fact, to achieve the Pure Land method, the most difficult is the difficulty. For long-term thinking and long-term cultivation, of course, there is a prerequisite. You must first find the right method. You must build confidence. If you can not retreat after building confidence, then this fate is very important. They can all understand these principles. At the beginning, I was forced to come, and as long as there is a request for leave, I began to track the need to make up the leave. It is very strict, and no one can enjoy the privilege.There are some veterans who want privileges, and they will be scolded miserably by me. They think that they have dedicated themselves to doing a lot of deacons, and doing a lot of deacons for our fellow practitioners in the general discussion class, so he feels that they don’t have to follow these rules, but I was caught on the spot. If you are so scolding, I just said, if you feel that it is very hard to observe these rules, do you want to think about the dynamics? The dynamics is to drop out of school and go to the cattle-raising class for self-study. You should not take classes here. There is no one in the specialized class. There are privileges, even these small places, I have to strictly demand that it is just a card.He asks for privileges like this. In fact, most people think it is nothing, because he is really serving everyone, and he is really busy. Is it possible to open up fate without following everyone's rules?Not only did I not agree, but I scolded him very hard. You can't even have this idea, because the rules I set must have my intentions, no matter how small the rules are, if you come tomorrow If you don’t come, then you will not be able to achieve the long-term and stable merits, you will not be able to get them, you can’t look at this small place, the merits are great, because many of our fellow practitioners know the suffering in this world, and we have to initiate faith and aspirations. The heart is not difficult. Anyway, you have nowhere to go. The world is too hard and you can’t survive without seeking a living. So many people don’t understand the Pure Land method and don’t like listening to the scriptures, but he will tell you that he is going to Paradise, right. wrong?There are many such people, and the roots of goodness may appear in an instant, but it is really too difficult for you to maintain it. Those who advance and retreat, advance and retreat nine times, so I have to make the rules so strict without asking you. , Come one day a week, and then have classes all day, no.I set it to be very simple. Come at least a few minutes a day, but you must come every day. At least one week for five days is the intention here. You come once a week. Come for five minutes without interruption for a long time, and it will develop you a habit, a good habit, the habit of cultivating the Dharma every day, and you have to go to class every day, then your mind will respond to the Dharma before you know it, you every day Everyone is accustomed to practicing and forming a habit. This is very important. This is the beauty of Tao and Miao, and the blessing power is great.

Why do we people have heavy karma?It’s just that the habit of greed, hatred, and delusion is too heavy. It’s not that everyone is bad and bad. Most people are still very kind, but because of the habit, the habit of no beginning robbery is too strong, so strong as we are. There is no way to dominate, so even if you are a very kind person, you still can’t make progress in your practice on your own, so you must first overcome this habit and turn the evil habit. The habit is a habit, and the living habit of chasing the five desires and six dusts. , To become a pure living habit, so we have to get used to practice every day, to listen to the scriptures, and to recite the Buddha.I would also suggest that fellow practitioners don’t set so many homework in the morning and evening. The basic set of lessons is very important. If you are motivated from the beginning, I have to work hard for a few hours a day, worship Buddha for a few hours, or I have to retreat. Usually This kind of person is about to die soon, really ten or nine of them are like this, and the more diligent you are, the longer you will fall back later. After you slack off, you will think of working hard in the previous period of time, oops!The horror is so scared that it will be even more difficult to mention the second diligence. This side effect is very big, so we can't be greedy and we can't underestimate our habits.Even if you work hard during this period of time, you will get the joy of the Fa, but as soon as you stop, your habit will rise. Greed, anger, ignorance and ignorance are accumulated by endless calamity, so we can only come through continuous cultivation every day. Transform this habit of making karma every day, so don’t underestimate such a rule. There is a lot of merit and deep truth in it. Master is prescribing some rules, not just jokes, so people who are really straight-hearted cultivators. It's easy to make progress. You can do whatever the master says, and after you do it, you will perceive the benefits yourself.We fellow practitioners, no matter how stupid you are, you can appreciate the benefits of habituation. He will feel that your whole heart is recovered, and when the time comes, you are not used to not being online for a day, right?Such a good habit can develop you in a short period of time and replace your bad habit. You are usually used to walking and strolling around wherever you want to go out every day. , The body will follow, go out if there is nothing to do, it’s boring!People will find things to do. Now that we develop this habit, people will easily develop an inertia. This is also called natural teaching. Through our natural habits, we give him a good habit to replace, and he will soon adapted.So many of our fellow practitioners are not used to not going online for a day, and we study online will not make you stressed. Everyone is happy. As long as you don’t make a mistake and be scolded by me, you will be fine after scolding, so There was a fellow practitioner who was so cute and miserably scolded by me. It was the girl who had never had a boyfriend at the age of XNUMX. She didn't even set out to become a monk because when I came to sign up, I asked if there was any She once had the idea of ​​becoming a monk, but she said no, and she enjoyed the easy single life, so she didn’t plan to get married, she had good roots, and had a relationship with the Three Jewels. It didn’t take long before Kunxiu she had already decided to become a monk. She is also very smart. In our teaching method, I think her message is very good, and she is studying the Fa seriously.

But one day she suddenly made a mistake that made me very angry because she made a very serious mistake. What does this prove?People are often confused and abnormal!When we listened to it, we felt that we had cultivated very well and our concepts were all correct. However, when the test comes, you know how bad you are as soon as your realm is present, and your kungfu cannot be used in time before the realm, and if No one pointed out to you and you don't know.What about her example?She is in very good school status, you think she has already made the effort to become a monk!From no intention to become a monk, the main reason is the blessing of the Three Jewels!It’s possible for my teaching and her to respond to this Fa to get this feeling, right?So it is true that she has a foundation in the law. Even for such a person, it was only a week or so before that, she suddenly left a message on the post. Looking at her message, she might think that I would admire it after reading it. She turned out to be scolded by me instead.What did she write?She said that because she can chant Buddha happily every day, one day she rode a motorcycle to the train station and took a train. She was very happy to recite the Buddha while riding a motorcycle. It felt like she was at the train station and then got on the train. Later, I suddenly felt uncomfortable, and it felt as if invisible beings were asking her for trouble. We generally imagine that she is here to ask for merit!It’s strange that I was very happy and Faxi in recitation just now. Now my whole body is dizzy and uncomfortable. Then when I got off the train at the station, her classmates went to pick her up when she saw her pale and asked her, what are you doing? Will it be like this?Are you sick?She said no!Before I took the train, I chanted all the way to Buddha!Then when I got on the train, I was chanting Buddha!She didn't know why she was suddenly uncomfortable. Her classmates were also young people!The suspicious two happened to get together, and her classmate said, did you not turn back when you recanted the Buddha?it is good!After she heard it, she thought maybe it was!As a result, the two of them discussed and immediately went to the nearby Tiangong Temple to ask for God's blessing. It was all right after she went to the Tiangong Temple. This was really God's blessing.She left me a message saying that I was very uncomfortable on the train just now, and when I went to the Tiangong Temple, it suddenly became better. The tone of the two of them was that it was Tiangong's shelter, because it was better after going to the Tiangong Temple, wow!The moment I saw this message, I was immediately furious, and I was not really angry. I just taught you the Buddhism for so long and behaved so well at ordinary times. I have also decided to die, even those who have made a wish to become a monk. Then you usually claim that Wan Dehong's name will lose to Uncle Tiangong?This test will tell you that you have completely forgotten the merits of Amitabha Buddha in an emergency. This is habit.In fact, she understands, and she absolutely agrees with the superb merits of Wan Dehong's name, but why did she think that Tiangong helped her when there was an incident suddenly, because they had religious beliefs when they were young!We generally worship Guanyin, BAI Tian Gong, and Di Gong at home. This is a kind of belief in ghosts and gods, and it also has good roots!It’s also good to be able to respect ghosts and gods, so when she wanted to ask God for help, she would think it was because of God’s help. She didn’t think of the real reason for a while?She just seemed to be very happy to think that maybe she also had merit in chanting Buddhism, so she blamed her relatives and creditors for coming to her to ask for merit, and then the uncle Tian Gong solved it for her smoothly.But when I saw it, my reaction was completely different, because I looked at it from a different angle, so I scolded her severely first. I said that you are evil insights. This sentence is heavy enough. Got it!I have also said before that we don't need to go back when we recite Amitabha, so of course her classmate's teaching is also wrong.Of course, it’s fine if her classmate didn’t study the Fa with us, but she learned it with me, knowing that Wan Dehong’s name itself represents faith and wish and does not need to go back, and when her classmates confessed wrong opinions, she also If you didn’t refute it, it seemed to have acquiesced, so it means that the meaning of this Buddha name does not really embed it in your heart, and then use it in your life. You use it immediately when you test the present. come out.When someone tells you so-and-so!You didn’t turn back when you recite the Buddha, so you blamed your relatives and creditors. When they are upset or whatever, you should tell him immediately that reciting Amitabha Buddha doesn’t need to turn back, so those bad things are definitely not. A non-returning relationship, right?You can be very clear that if your knowledge is correct, you will never be affected.Secondly, we are specializing in the Pure Land Method. We know that the merit of this Buddha name is the supreme merit, the supreme perfection, and Amitabha is the king of the Buddha!This Buddha name represents the life of Amitabha Buddha. All the merits are in it. This merit can help us solve all things. He can solve the life and death of the Three Realms from life to life, not to mention some small things like sesame seeds and ghosts. Body!What's sick!Some things are not included. This is what we must recognize when we usually practice the Pure Land Method, and it is also the key point that we have repeatedly emphasized. He is the king of the Buddha!We often mentioned in "Amitabha Chan" that Amitabha is the great doctor king!So all physical and mental illnesses and even karma can be solved. How can it be blessed by God?In addition, there is a concept. If the body is unwell that day, I told her that the cause is very complicated. If it is really because of grieving relatives and creditors, he may come to ask for merit because you have chanted Buddhism. This is also possible, but The process of his discussion. After coming to the process of leaving, of course you will have physical discomfort. Because the beings in the Yin realm are close to us, our bodies will feel uncomfortable. This is normal, but you can’t just do it right now. I think, then, how can recitation of Buddha still be like this?Many reactions are inevitable. If you didn't recite Buddhism then you would be even more miserable. You have to think like this!If you don't recite the Buddha right now and blame your relatives and creditors for coming, it will not make you uncomfortable and you will be fine, but now you may faint there, or whatever, you will be unable to withstand all kinds of situations!So if we have confidence in the Buddha's name, we will definitely react from this aspect of thinking, and then we can deepen the confidence in the Buddha's name in the realm again and again, instead of losing confidence, we will feel like the Buddha's name. There is no way to bring up merit, no way to bring up the effect.

Therefore, in her example, she still vaguely believes that it is the merit of God. This misconception is very serious, so I scolded her, saying that you are evil insights. Later, her reaction was also very cute, because they often saw it. Other fellow practitioners were repaired by me, and almost everyone was rewarded by me. Therefore, each of them had a thick skin. Some people were reluctant to even persuade them to leave, and they couldn’t be driven away. After she was scolded so badly by me, what was her reaction?She even left a message immediately, of course it was a confession!She was full of joy and was waiting for me to admire, but she was scolded so badly by me. Suddenly she woke up and realized what was wrong with her?So she felt very ashamed. Originally, she thought she had cultivated very well, but when I woke her up, she could indeed see her fault, so she was very ashamed and repented.After the confession was over, she then further persuaded fellow practitioners to leave a message more actively, fellow practitioners, don’t be afraid of being scolded by Master. It doesn’t matter if you write a mistake, you will only make progress after Master scolds you.Look at it!A lot of work!This is also a realm to test. It can be seen that she has been scolded to the point that she has a thick face and has a lot of conscientiousness. She will not turn back when she scolds, and she can admit her mistakes rationally, know where she went wrong, repent and reform, and even return. To be able to further persuade other fellow practitioners to leave more comments, this is the effort to endure humiliation.

It’s possible for ordinary people. Don’t scold you so hard. If you are a little bit ironic, you will be in a bad mood. If you don’t talk to you for three months, you will have troubles, and that trouble will become heavier and worse. Seriously, most people are like that. They are stingy, and they will be terrible immediately if they hear something wrong, so our class!It’s been nearly ten months since the pre-class preview. Initially, everyone can almost graduate before the official start of the class. But why do you have to study for another three years, even thirty or fifty years, until you die? ?This is absolutely necessary, because your faith and willingness can continue to deepen, and what we just said can achieve the goal of not being mixed, doubting, and uninterrupted, because you can never do it on your own. And such a co-cultivation environment where they can really see, see, and understand, they know that it’s almost impossible to find it, so everyone cherishes it. If you learn in this class, it seems that you can understand many aspects at once. Up.

When this basic respect is established, the disrespectful karma is eliminated, and the habit of observing the rules is established, because they know that I am fierce. If you don’t obey the rules, then you will leave. I won’t tell you more. , I don’t listen to your explanations much, because I don’t have time. I have to read more Buddhas and communicate more with you. I will not chat with you. They are really interested in learning and knowing that the suffering in this world is going to be renounced. These people are not used to being scolded at first, but they will also endure it. At the beginning, they are also very patient, and then it doesn’t take long to form a habit. For half a month and a month, one by one Faxi appears. Now most people are very accustomed to it. Diligent, except for those who are very busy at work, everyone will try their best to find time to learn, because this is the happiest thing, and everyone's opinions will become more and more similar. Why are they more and more similar?It is because everyone has truly mastered the correct practice. If everyone has absorbed it, they will naturally be able to see and understand each other. Therefore, it is clear from this place whether there is a way to practice the right way and whether to get the benefits of the law. , Just look at it!Therefore, I also think that I started this class casually like this. The teaching process is often smokey, but it is also worth it. Because the effect is very good, it soon stabilized, and now (the end of 2012) has been Ten months, in fact, it was quite stable a few months ago, and the ones that should be eliminated were eliminated long ago. Most of the fellow practitioners who entered the club after admission have been stable. This is about writing this thesis and starting this class. Of karma.

Now the time is almost up, we will continue to study tomorrow, because there is still a long time to come.Okay, let’s study here tonight. We didn’t tell a joke today, because this whole theory is not just for the present sentient beings, but Shakyamuni’s Dharma destiny is still more than XNUMX years old. It should be reserved for fellow practitioners who are destined during this period of time, because no one has written such a treatise on the Pure Land. Everyone thinks that the pure land method only needs to focus on faith and willingness. If you don’t pay much attention to it, you can also practice in order. Therefore, I wanted to write a book like this with my heart, and guide everyone to take root and practice step by step.

Let's briefly summarize the sub-subjects of this theory. The first place to start studying this theory is the "Pure Land Plus Path". You must first really be able to see through and let it go. The faith you initiated is true!This foundation must be laid first, so our teaching order is to teach this foundation first, and then enter the major part.The content of my previous videos is directly about majors. First, I will build up confidence in the rebirth. This is because I am afraid that nothing will be too late when impermanence comes. Therefore, we must first help our old fellow practitioners who are already dedicated to seeking survival in the Pure Land. The confidence of rebirth, now this part has been completed, so we need to further enhance everyone’s faith and wish, and we need to attract some people who have not yet made a real effort to live in the pure land, and first persuade them to see through the world, let go of the world, and truly understand When you arrive at the reality of the world "suffering, emptiness, impermanence, and no-self," and then tell us that there is such a good practice and place to go as the Pure Land Method, you will naturally initiate a sincere wish. If you want to teach at that time, it will be easy to teach.Finally, "The Way of Victory Bodhisattva" is the last part of the thesis. It talks about when we chant the Buddha to establish faith in rebirth, or that you have already made a vow to survive, whether you have established faith in rebirth or not, many people still don’t have it after making a vow. Knowing how Buddhist chanters should practice the path of Bodhisattva before now, some people may even think that people who recite the Buddha do not need to practice the path of Bodhisattva, as long as they close the door and recite the Buddha carefully. Therefore, recitation of the Buddha dharma will be mistaken for the Han and Hinayana methods. We must clarify this part, and we must further lead everyone to practice the Bodhisattva path correctly. For those who recite the Buddha, there are ways to recite the Buddha and follow the path of the Bodhisattva. Don’t go to do charity work in the world again. If you don’t understand, you will do it. If you do this, then you don’t want to specialize in it, it’s messy!We will also guide fellow practitioners on the specific methods. If you teach you specifically, you will learn quickly. You don’t have to think about how to do it yourself, whether this charity can be done, and to what extent. Or we have to close the door. Although we say that we chant the Buddha with the door closed, the Buddha's name is absolutely perfect and pure, and all the blessings and wisdom are already sufficient. In theory, this is not wrong, but we It is recommended for the elderly to do this. If people have other causes, don’t do it. There is a better way. You can actively practice the bodhisattva path in the way that we recite the Buddha, and cultivate a little more blessing. A little wisdom is so good, it might be possible to attain emptiness and enlightenment at the moment.

Two years ago, I went to the mainland to practice Buddha Seven, and I met a man who came to ask a question. He wanted to retreat for three years when he was only in his thirties. He wanted to close the life and death gate. When I went to the Buddha Seven Middle School to teach At that time, he closed the house and asked others to find it, because he knew that the old monk Jingkong had also mentioned that there was a young man in Shenzhen, mainland China who had really retired for three years before Ruixiang died, so he should follow the example. , I said you don’t want to, I stop him, and I’ll stop him from reciting cause and effect. I’m not against the old monk, because the old monk once said that you can stay in seclusion for three years. This method is not wrong, it does come. If you don’t want to stay for a moment, you can do it. It’s not wrong. Then why I stop him because he is not suitable for doing this. He is agitated. When a person is agitated, you can easily become obsessed when you close the door and think. Yes, not everyone is locked up. As it turns out, I just tried to persuade him a little bit. The next day he said he could not retreat. He just signed up as a volunteer at the dojo according to my suggestion. It can be seen that he was not so motivated. If your intention is absolute, I will definitely ask for death and let go of all destiny. It is useless for anyone to persuade you!right?As soon as I took the test, I knew that this can also be regarded as I am testing him, because I think he is very restless, and he will definitely have problems with this level.

So how do we decide, how to live the next life after we initiate the letter, how to cultivate, how to cultivate blessing, how to cultivate wisdom, how to solve the sect, how to distribute in the profession, to decide, this You must have specific guidelines that are easier for you to grasp.Because this part happened to be the cause of this teaching, I will add it in depth. Generally, we rarely see specific guidelines for this part. Therefore, this part is divided into three subjects. Originally, we only need to It’s enough to study the orthodox part of the major. Of course, the old monk also talks a lot about how to practice the Bodhisattva way. Of course, the old monk also talks a lot about how to practice the Bodhisattva way. The Master also talks a lot, but most of them are scattered, and scattered talk is not the second lecture, we call it the first broad theory!We have a step-by-step method for you to organize your practice, and we organize it in order to make it easier for everyone to grasp. Generally, there are so many magic weapons. If the content is too scattered, you may not know how to make sense after reading it for a long time. This is the special feature of this book. It has a very complete sequence of practice. For a person who wants to specialize in the Pure Land in this life and become a Buddha, you should pay attention to it. All the work that should be done is here. It is within the scope of a broad theory, so if this theory is completed, it is likely to circulate from generation to generation. As long as sentient beings are bound to this Dharma, this is the Buddha’s Dharma. It is the teaching content established based on the thoughts of the Master Shandao. Handed down, it can indeed benefit a lot of sentient beings, and even sentient beings who have reached the end of nine thousand years can be saved and become Buddhas because of this method.Because of this Buddha name, in the final stage of the Shakyamuni Buddha’s Dharma movement, any dharma and all scriptures are gone, and no dharma cultivation can be accomplished. Only the name of Amitabha Buddha, Pure Land Dharma, is left, and there is power to make it. All beings are saved.According to the scriptures, after the extinguishment of the Dharma, the last living sutra is the "Blessed Life Sutra" that lives in the world for another hundred years. After a hundred years, even this sutra will disappear. What remains is the name of the Buddha, Nanwu Amitabha. Wan Dehong’s name, and according to the teachings taught by Master Shandao, the six words Nammo Amitabha represent the three resources of faith, willingness, and rebirth. By that time, there will be no teachings, but as long as you have a cause and reason to hear Nanmo The name of Buddha Amitabha, you know the merits of Amitabha Nammo, even if you don’t know his merits, it already has the merits of faith and willingness in it, because at that time sentient beings have no way to listen to the scriptures and do not know the truth. , But as long as you have the chance to hear this period, you can still be led by the Buddha to become a Buddha.So the special merit of this book is in this place. It can have the power to benefit sentient beings a long time later. This is also a place worthy of our heart to circulate together. People who participate together, or even just come to listen to the scriptures. People and merit are equally divided. Our Buddhism talks about equality in the realm of the law. All merits, not those of the master who teach the Fa, get more. It's not like this, and the truth is very deep.Okay, don’t take up too much time for everyone today. We will continue to record tomorrow. Thank you.Amitabha!
