Chapter 893: Seeking the Dharma

No. There is an idiom that says that those who cultivate the Tao jump out of the Three Realms and are not in the Five Elements.

If the Three Realms are Buddhists, and the Five Elements are Taoists, this means that cultivating the Tao has become an immortal and a Buddha.

The five elements of Taoism are from physics, so they are represented by gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and Buddhist culture starts from the heart, so it is about color, thinking, and knowledge, and the truth is one.

Those of us who study Buddhism should reflect on our own thoughts at any time, and go to the temple today to kowtow and make offerings to seek good fortune for ourselves.

If you do a good deed, you want to be rewarded, which is also a blessing.

Because I practice, I want to be better in the next life, which is what people think, and it is more utilitarian than doing business. Seek the Tao in this way, how can it be done!

If you look at this scripture, if you want to translate it into a foreign language, don't abbreviate it, don't flip it around.

There is a layman who wants to annotate the Buddhist scriptures, go to see Nanyang Hui Zhongguoshi, Zhongguo Shi praised him for being able to send his heart, and then let the little monk take a bowl of water, put seven grains of rice in the bowl, put a chopstick on the bowl, and ask the layman if he knows what this means, but the layman does not understand.

Master Zhongguo said, I don't even understand the meaning of this old monk, can you understand the meaning of the Buddha? Still want to annotate Buddhist scriptures?

Here Vimo Layman begins with another paragraph.

Why did he call Sariputta again? In the ancient Chinese composition, this sentence will be crossed out by the gentleman with a red pen, and you repeat it.

This is to understand that the sutra is a dialogue, this is an expression, it is a level, it is a stage.

When Vimala said this, he would look at Sariputta to see if he understood, and then say, "Only! Sariputta, I'll tell you again.

"Those who seek the Dharma do not seek the Buddha, do not seek the Dharma, and do not seek the Dharma." It says that the true Dharma is not sought in the Five Yins, in the Eighteen Realms, or in the Three Realms.

Further, it is not in the Three Jewels of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha.

It should be noted here that the word "on" means sticky.

"Many" refers to the sangha, the sangha, or a single monk, and a bhikshu can represent all the sages and monks of the ten directions and the three generations throughout the ages.

It is also wrong to truly seek the Dharma, cling to the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha.

But if you don't read this sentence, you won't take refuge in the Three Jewels, that's a lie, you haven't reached this state.

Here we are talking about the superior and only two methods, the true path to liberation.

"If I say that I should see suffering, break the collection, prove and perish, and cultivate the Tao, then I will be talking about it, not seeking the Dharma."

Attaching to the Four Noble Truths of Suffering and Extinction is a drama theory, not the Dharma. This is very serious, the "Vimala Sutra" refuted the path of suffering and extinction, which is the basis of Hinayana Buddhism, but let's not fall for the Vimala layman, and tell you: drama is also the Dharma.

What is the Dharma? Convenient method. It is necessary to understand that the essence of any means of education in the world is the method of inducement, and it is all coaxing.

Inducement is the convenient method of Buddhism, although it refutes the drama theory from the viewpoint of supreme Buddhism, but the drama theory is also the Dharma and the convenient method.

The "Nirvana Sutra" says: It refers to the yellow leaves as gold, and it is just a cry.

When the child cries, he coaxes him with a yellow leaf, saying that it is gold, and he will not cry, just don't cry!

It is to use the method of inducement so that he will not cry and not be troubled by this trouble.

All Buddhism also refers to the yellow leaves as gold, and it is just a cry!

When I was in retreat in the Emei Mountain Temple, on the first day of entry, I saw a couplet on the main hall, and I felt that this word was so good that it was connected in one go.

This pair is not only good in words, but also really good in pairing:

The mountains are full of water, and the white clouds urge the calves to return

The wind and rain are sprinkled, and the yellow leaves are fluttering

It's so clever that I've finished talking about all the teachings of the Dharma.

Only! Sariputta! The name of the Dharma is extinguished, and if you are born and destroyed, it is to seek life and perish, not to seek the Dharma. This involves the most basic question of understanding the Dharma.
