At that time, all nine million bodhisattvas declared, "I want to go to the world of samva, to make offerings to Shakyamuni Buddha, and to see Vimala and other bodhisattvas."

At that time, there were nine million bodhisattvas in front of the Buddha of Xiangji. Notice the number, it's only nine million, not ten million, there's no whole.

Why? If you want to understand the principle of this number, you will understand the Book of Changes.

Nine is the pole of the yang number, and it is the qi of the pure yang of the supreme yang.

The world above is the qi of the supreme yang, and there is no yin at all, so the five yin are empty.

When you are full of yang energy, you can skip eating, and you have to reach this realm, so I have repeatedly told you not to learn to fast.

However, they still have to eat in the world above, and what do they eat?

Fragrant Buddha's rice, this is a secret.

Although it has reached the situation of not eating the fireworks of the world, to be honest, there is another food, the world above does not eat the food made by the fireworks of the world, it will come naturally, and you can eat it once and you don't have to eat it again for a hundred years, at least you are very satisfied.

It's all a secret. So this figure of nine million is not a myth, it is a real kung fu, a real realm.

At that time, these 9 million Bodhisattvas asked the Buddha of Xiangji to take them on vacation, and wanted to go down to the world of Sampa with this incarnate Bodhisattva to make offerings to Shakyamuni Buddha, and at the same time meet this Vimala Bodhisattva.

Buddha said: You can go! The incense of your body does not confuse the hearts of all sentient beings.

The incense Buddha approved, but there is one condition, you must use your supernatural powers to put away the fragrance on your body.

Because the sentient beings in this sampa world are very stinky, the people who eat pork have the smell of pigs, and those who eat cattle and sheep have the smell of cattle and sheep, and when you go to the bodhisattvas who go to the Buddha kingdom, you will harm the sentient beings in the sampa world, you will be troubled, you will have the relative discrimination of fragrance and smell, and you will have an inferiority complex.

And let you give up your true form, and do not let those who seek the Bodhisattva in other countries be ashamed of themselves.

The second condition is that you have to change your body into the same as the beings in the world of sava, because you are so beautiful, and if you don't change, they will have an inferiority complex when they see you.

What will it become? Like the local saying of Sichuan people, "With the image of a pig on the face, the heart is bright." "Hide your wisdom.

and you are in the other, don't think about being contemptuous and obstructive. So what? The land of the ten directions is like nothingness.

The third condition is not to break the vows, not to be contemptuous of other people, as long as they have a little arrogance, they are breaking the bodhisattva vows, which is very serious.

If you have such thoughts, your karma will be hindered. What is the reason?

Don't be deceived by the superficial phenomena of any world or person, the real Buddha land is not a pure land, nor is it a filthy land, there is no earth! Only when the true proof reaches the void can the Buddha fruit be truly realized.

What is the true Buddha Land? The certificate is empty. If there is emptiness, then why should we be reborn in the West, the South, or the North? Fang Fang is lucky, everyone is good, everything is idealistic, which side is not good? Do you still use fortune telling to see feng shui?

And the Buddhas are those who want to transform the small Dharma of all pleasures, and they do not fully manifest their pure ears.

It's a proviso that when you come to the world of samva, don't despise it, because Shakyamuni Buddha and the other Buddhas, in order to educate the beings of these little instruments, make their land unclean, and that's deliberate.

If you have the slightest thought of contempt, you will not be able to come back at once.

Therefore, people should not go to high places, because they are used to walking very seriously, and once they fall, they will never be able to climb up again.

People must always maintain their true colors, and the Vimal monks "do not stand up to the seat", but also completely maintain their original colors, and do not look at you as particularly noble or lowly.

The Diamond Sutra also says that "the Dharma is equal, and there is no superiority", and those who study Buddhism should develop such a state of mind, "the mind is parallel and straight", which is the basic starting point of Buddhism and the highest achievement.

The Bodhisattva received the bowl and rice, and the nine million Bodhisattvas of the Buddha, inherited the power of the Buddha and the power of Vimalaya, and suddenly disappeared in the other world, and in a moment, he went to Vimalaya.

At that time, the bodhisattva incarnated by the Vima lay man accepted the bowl of rice given to him by the Xiangji Buddha and came down with the nine million Bodhisattvas of the Xiangji Buddha Kingdom.
