Chapter 1028: Dharma is in Magic (Part I)
Ananda, with these four demons, 84,000 afflictions, and all sentient beings are tired of it, the Buddhas do Buddha things with this Dharma, and they are famous for all the Dharma gates.
Studying Buddhism is to break the demonic barriers, life is full of demons, open and close your eyes are demons.
The meaning of Luohan in Chinese is to kill troublesome thieves, and it is not too clever to translate into killing thieves, so it is still used Luohan.
There are four kinds of demons in life: the demon of trouble, the demon of yin, the demon of death, and the demon of heaven. We can't get rid of the first affliction demon. However, it should be noted that Buddhism says that life is troublesome, and that troubles are not suffering, they are lighter than pain, that annoyance is annoyance, and that having a headache is annoyance.
Life has troubles anytime and anywhere, and this is a magic obstacle.
The magic word was used to grind in ancient times, that is, the meaning of grinding, and after the Sui and Tang dynasties, the grinding word was replaced with a ghost word, and now it was bad, and the grinding became a demon with red eyebrows and green eyes.
There are a lot of troubles, greed, hatred, ignorance, and suspicion will cause troubles, greed for longevity, greed for fame, greed for profit, greed for knowledge, greed for Buddhism, all of them are greed.
If you can't do what your heart is greedy for, you will be troubled.
The Yin Demon is the Five Yin Demons, and the Yin Demon is the feeling of the body, like meditating and the qi is blocked. Think; Thinking can't stop, can't reach "lonely and speechless, no words and no signs, no knowledge, no action and no Buddha deeds", be troubled by thoughts, and delusions can't be empty. Yes; Even if your mind and feelings are empty, this function of life is endless, and the power of circulation is still non-stop.
There are more demons in the knowledge of yin, the highest state of thought, the knowledge of yin is the devil, and this is the only knowledge.
Death demon, people are waiting for death to live, when you are born on the first day, you will move towards the day of death, no one is inevitable.
The Heavenly Demon is the Heavenly Demon that he transforms into the Heavenly Heaven. The heavenly realm in the Three Realms has a total of twenty-eight heavens, and the high heavens ignore the sentient beings on our earth, and he turns into a free heaven is a day in the realm of desire.
Gods, Yakshas, etc., are all heavenly demons that he incarnates into the heavens. Some people say that they are afraid of demons, you can rest assured, with the heavenly demons who have turned into the heavens to come to you to compare the Fa, you are already very remarkable. Like us, the devil doesn't come to grind!
If you don't have that qualification, he won't come if you burn three sticks of incense.
He's still afraid of you! It means that you will not go to friends who are poorer than you, but prefer to go to people who are richer and more powerful than you.
Therefore, after a person reaches a high position, many people come to him, and these people are his demons.
There is a lot of this data in the "Great Treasure Accumulation Sutra", you do kung fu every day, when you encounter which kind of realm is which kind of heavenly demon, you know, as long as you call his name and ask him not to be verbose, he will not come.
Some people cultivate the Tao, and as soon as they make a little progress, they go wrong, and they have a deviation in their opinions, and they go on a fork in the road.
This is the obstacle of the four demons, the demons don't want you to become enlightened, and when you become enlightened, you become "lonely and speechless, unspoken, unremarkable, ignorant and incompetent and doing Buddha things", and the demons have nothing to play.
The devil is either a bad thing, or a greedy play, and if you don't play with him, he will be unhappy. Be his companion, and be a heap with him, and the devil will be good to you. Therefore, affection is a demon, and love cannot be liberated.
Because of these four demons, in a single thought, 84,000 afflictions arise.
The breath is a thought, and there are so many troubles in between, because people don't understand it, so they say that the Dharma is bragging.
When you really have kung fu, you will naturally experience it. Try it, when you are writing an article, although you are writing word by word, your mind is long gone on this word, right? If you can calm down, you'll know.
If you sit here and listen to me, and you listen to every word, you don't know how many turns your mind has turned. So as soon as you make a little progress, you are taken away by the devil, and if you are not wise enough, you think that you are doing the right thing. If you can purify this affliction, then you can turn into Dharma.
