Four Scriptures on Reading the Sutra on the Upper Class (Part XNUMX)


Today I want to introduce you to the "Viewing Scriptures, Shangpin and Shangsheng Chapter". This handout is based on the commentary of a good guide from the Tang Dynasty. He divided the scripture from Xuanyi to Scripture into four parts, so it is also called "Four Posts." This chapter is selected today, the most important of which is "Fa Bodhicitta." Jingzong often says "three hearts and round hair", the so-called "three hearts" means "sincere, deep-hearted, and returning to wishing." The completeness of this three-hearted hair is Supreme Bodhicitta. The most fundamental classic of the Pure Land Sect is the Three Classics and One Theory. The "On" is made by the heavenly bodhisattva, and the "Scripture" is said by the Buddha. Of course, the Jing is the most fundamental basis. Among the three classics, Wuliangshoujing is the most important, because it is the most complete and thorough introduction to the Western Elysium, and it can be called "Introduction to Pure Land." "Viewing Wuliangshou Buddhist Scripture" is a supplement to "Wangliangshou Scripture", which explains the theory and practice methods of Western Pure Land, such as chanting Buddha, chanting Buddha, and chanting Buddha. The name of our holding is also in the "Viewing the Scriptures". In addition, it explains in detail the nine causes and effects in the western world, so the theory, method, and cause and effect are described in detail in the "Viewing the Scriptures".

The "Buddha Amitabha Sutra" has the least weight. In the past, there were many people who read and practiced the cultivation of pure land. The main ones are to persuade the faith, to make a wish, and to persuade the Buddha to live in pure land. Therefore, the two masters of Lianchi and Yiyi judged that the scriptures used "Xinyuanxing" as the pure land three-funded food. Today, I will introduce the chapter of Jiu Pin's death in "Viewing the Scriptures", which is also the cause and effect of Jiu Pin. The Master of Good Guidance judges to disperse the good. Goodness is divided into goodness and scattered goodness. "Fineness of goodness" is a name that is dedicated to keeping one's mind free. "Sanshan" is a cultivation merit and belongs to help. Are helping Shuang Xiu have a close relationship.

I first divide this chapter into verses, which is easy to see clearly. The chapter is divided into twelve paragraphs:

(XNUMX) Buddha told Ananda and Wetich.
(XNUMX) Those who are top-quality and ascendant.
(XNUMX) If there are sentient beings who are willing to give birth to another country. Send three hearts. Even if you die.
(D) How much is three. One is sincere. Both are attentive. The three returned their wish. With three hearts. You will have another country.
(E) There are three kinds of beings. Deserve to die.
(F) How much is three. One does not kill with kindness. With precepts. Both read classics such as Mahayana. The three practice six minds.
(XNUMX) Send back wishes. May be born to the other country.
(Eight) with this merit. One day or even seven days. That means passing away.
(XNUMX) When giving birth to another country. This man is so advanced and brave. Amitabha is here. And Guan Shiyin is in full swing. Countless Buddhas. Hundreds of bhikkhus heard the public. Countless heavens. Qibao Palace. The Guanyin Bodhisattva conducts Vajrayana. With the trend to the Bodhisattva. Before the walker. Amitabha. Zoom in to the light. Follow the walker. With the Buddhas. Give your hand to welcome. Guanyin is coming. With countless Buddhas. Admire the walkers. Persuade them. See you now. Rejoice. Seeing himself on the Vajrayana. Follow the Buddha. Like a finger. Pass away.
(XNUMX) Birth to another country.
(XNUMX) See the Buddha's body and appearance. Seeing the bodhisattvas is full. Bright Po Lin. Speaking magic. After hearing about it, I realized that there is no way to live. After the beard. Calendar of Buddhas. Everywhere. Before the Buddhas. The second book was written. Even home. There are countless hundred thousand Roni gates.
(Twelve) is a top-quality ascendant.

The whole chapter of the above chapter is not long, and the commentary of the good guide is very detailed. Let's look at the commentary first.
