Chapter 961 - Phases (12)
Theoretically, the "warmth" of the four preliminaries, which is the transformation of the disturbing habits, is also clear. But in terms of actual practice, warmth is the initiation of the true fire of samadhi. Fear of heat, fever is not. I am telling you very sincerely, but I am an ordinary man, and I only contribute everything I know to the limited truth. You usually talk to me about these things alone, and I really don't have time to reply to these gossips one by one, but today I will talk about the lotus in the fire, by the way.
When the concentration is enough, the four major will be able to turn, and at that time, the karma in the spirit is ripe, and they are leaving, and the thought moves, the sexual fire vacuum, the sexual emptiness is true fire, and as soon as the thought arises in emptiness, the fire of the four major ones is strengthened, and they leave, where do they still need to be sent to cremation.
Therefore, the realm of lotus in the fire is indeed there, if it is really empty, the vacuum is wonderful, and the four meditations and eight fixed kung fu are there. I pay a lot of attention to the four meditations and eight concentrations, don't just talk about it, play with wit and change words, no matter what sect of Buddhism you follow, you don't have to talk about anything without a meditation foundation. When you reach this realm, you don't just give birth to lotus, visualize that the Void Dharma Realm is all lotus flowers. And it's not just the visualization of consciousness, but the motivation of the alayya, then it becomes a reality, and it really allows all sentient beings to see that the lotus flower fills the void, which is the function of the wind.
If you go to study Tantra, even if you die of learning, you won't get the secret secret, and I will tell you the secret secret, it is the one who is at ease with the wind of the mind and the rest of the mind, and the thought of it becomes true when you think about it. Again, how can you be at ease? I have to say, I'll tell you what happened to me one day, don't worry. There are a few young people who are studying Tantra, so pay special attention to these words of mine, and don't practice blindly!
Vimo said, "The lotus blossom born in the fire can be described as a hopeful being", and he said that the lotus blossom born in the fire is a hopeful being, not a non-existence.
We see that the Vimala Sutra is very advanced, and we put it up like this. There is also a "Huayan Sutra" that the good wealth boy has fifty-three ginseng, and this truth is also a continuation of the lotus blossom born in the fire, that is, the great wish of Guanyin Bodhisattva's "Pumen Pin", "Those who should be saved by what body should be presented." This passage also supplements the shortcomings of "Pumen Pin", because "Pumen Pin" only says that there are 32 corresponding bodies, but in fact, there are tens of billions of immeasurable applications.
After reading this verse, you will understand that there is a very important principle of the Mahayana Bodhisattva Path, and young fellow practitioners should pay special attention to it, that is, never despise any person or sentient being. Therefore, the first precept of Maitreya is "praise oneself and destroy him", and to despise others is to break this vow.
I have said to my fellow practitioners that the true bodhisattva vows are absolutely forbidden to be arrogant, to be absolutely humble, because humility to the extreme, but to the highest exaltation. What a humility to not despise any sentient being! This is also the bodhisattva path. Don't just because you have studied the Dharma, you don't see that this behavior is wrong, that behavior is not in line with the Dharma, and you are not used to it, this is a violation of the fundamental precepts, and you are not qualified to study Buddhism.
When we see others doing work that is considered inferior in the world, how do you know that it is not the Bodhisattva who is giving birth to lotus blossoms in the fire and saving people? If you despise him, you create bad karma. If he is not, it is more worthy of our sympathy for his depravity, and even less despised for him.
The first three sides are connected. The next thing is another turn.
The application of the Mahayana bodhisattva
"Or be the lord of the city, or be a merchant guide, a national teacher and a minister, in order to benefit all sentient beings." This is talking about entering the WTO, talking about the various incarnations of Mahayana bodhisattvas, and the Buddha's path is everywhere.
The Sixth Patriarch said: "The Dharma is in the world, and it is not separated from the world. Leaving the world to find Bodhi is just like asking for a rabbit's horns. "In the Dharma of the family world, there are people in the bodhisattva realm everywhere, and there are people in the bodhisattva realm everywhere, and this is the same as the thirty-two rebodies.
