"It is slow to show deeds, and it is like a bridge to all beings." The appearance looks sluggish, some of the older generations take this route, that slowness, that big temper, the blood vessels in the forehead are blue, this kind of person must have a big temper, even the Taixu mage came to see them, they refused to meet them, and they were slow to this extent.

But they are so merciful, and if someone bows down to them, they will be scolded, but before you have knelt to the ground, they have already knelt down and worshiped you.

Do you think they still want people to worship him? He worshipped. Although you are sluggish and look down on anyone, you really ask them sincerely, you kneel down, they kneel faster than you at such an age, and they still have a sound on their knees on the ground. If a monk worships him, they will definitely remind them of the precepts of the monks: monks should not worship white-clothed laymen. Even though they say this, you have to know that the Mahayana bodhisattva vows are to worship good knowledge, which is not divided into laymen, monks, men and women, old and young. Although the bodhisattva shows slowness, it is a bridge to save sentient beings, and the slowness is used as an edification.

Have you studied Zen Buddhism read all the Zen quotations?

Not to mention that after reading thousands of quotations, there is no one who can study "Zhiyue Lu", "Five Lantern Huiyuan", and "Chuan Lantern Lu" well. The techniques of these great Zen masters are all different, there are too many to scold, to beat, to be lenient, to meditate, and even to sleep and stingy.

They use all kinds of skillful convenience to "be like a bridge to all beings." To learn Buddhism, we want to save people, what is to save people? Your bridge to others is to save people. There are too many ways to save people, not only to persuade people to become monks, but also to save people as a barber. To save a person is to be a bridge for sentient beings, to help them overcome the sea of suffering, to relieve their troubles and sufferings, and even to enable them to attain Bodhi.

Show all afflictions, and the mind is always pure. "On the outside, he looks more troubled and painful than ordinary people, but on the inside, he is always pure.

I remember that when I accompanied my teacher to Suining, Sichuan, there was a big temple called Dongshan Temple. The incense is so prosperous, every year during the incense festival, there are more than 100 counties in Sichuan Province, and I am afraid that half of the counties have people to make a pilgrimage. There was a monk there who was called the Crazy Master, who was very famous and was not easy to see. He lived in the toilet all year round, it was not a modern toilet, the toilet in the mountains used to be two boards, it was very filthy, and there were a lot of flies. He was meditating there, and we were going to climb to the toilet and kowtow to him. I followed my teacher to see the crazy master, wanting to see how he had the Dao.

The temple was on the mountain, and it took an hour to go up in a sedan chair, and both sides of the road were kneeling and asking Hanako for money. My teacher first told me to bring more money and divide it all the way up the mountain. The teacher told me, "Look at how many great bodhisattvas are in there along the way."

I asked him, "Which one is it?" He just scolded me, stupid thing, and this still asks me? All of them!

I thought that the Bodhisattva would probably shine and have a treasure ornament on his body, but now he was scolded.

According to my teacher, these bodhisattvas are in trouble and suffering, and he is just a vigilant example for you to show you the bad ends. My teacher also told me that I should not throw money away from others, but should put it away one by one. I had to ask the sedan driver to lower it so that I could get the money. The teacher asked me not to sit in the sedan chair at all, but I pretended to be confused and was too lazy to get out of the sedan chair, which was sluggishness. I'm afraid that I won't be able to go up, and I won't see the crazy master! However, just such an action, you have to reflect on yourself, and it is only practice.

The great bodhisattva's mind is pure, and there are no troubles, but it is deliberately done to show that he is the same as all beings in the world, and this is the "Dharma", which means the Buddha's Dharma and Dharma. This practice, which is the same as that of sentient beings, is also the same path as the "four senses" of the bodhisattva path (generosity, love words, beneficial actions, and colleagues). However, although the great bodhisattva shows all the afflictions outwardly, he has no afflictions in the depths of his heart and is always pure.
