Chapter 1002: Buddha's Rice (II)

Skipping lunch is when the sun is at its peak in each area, as a time for the Buddha to eat. But this is not rigid, Emperor Wu of Liang ("Liang Huang Confession" is the monk Zhigong for the Liang Emperor's wife to do the excess of the method) often go to the temple to eat alms, the emperor is not there, the monks in the temple do not dare to move, that day after noon he is not yet, everyone thinks that today's meal is unreliable, to be hungry until tomorrow noon.

He finally arrived, and the great monk still wanted everyone to eat, because the emperor was the Son of Heaven, and the Son of God had just arrived. So these great monks in China are very accessible.

What is the reason why you can't eat after noon? I really want to say that it is very difficult to skip lunch at noon, depending on which "noon" you hold.

Strictly speaking, if you don't eat after noon, there is still the Tantric Dharma, and you can't eat it when you reach a certain state of practice, and that's what you don't eat after noon.

As soon as you eat it, your concentration will be destroyed. That "noon" is a living noon, which is indefinite. It is equivalent to when there is a living son in Taoist practice, and this child is indefinite.

This is a big secret, and no one has ever broken it for more than a thousand years, so I'll reveal a little bit to you today.

So it's hard to talk about this afternoon, and I'll tell you about it when your practice of Kung Fu arrives in the future.

Sariputta thought to himself, it was already noon, how would so many bodhisattvas and celestial beings eat?

Vimala understood its meaning and said: The Buddha said that the eight liberations, and the benevolent ones are practiced, how can they listen to the Dharma while they want to eat?

But if you want to eat, and wait for a while, let you not have food.

As soon as Sariputta's thought moved, Vimala knew about it and said to Sariputta that studying Buddhism is learning liberation.

The eight liberations have been said before, and they will not be repeated here.

This is a real problem, you learn to be liberated, and when you are hungry, you look empty! If you can't afford it, don't study Buddhism, that's self-deception.

If you have attained the level of effort, you can really be empty, and you don't need to eat or drink, that's true. When you study Buddhism, you can explain the truth, but you can't do it in practice.

The Buddha said that there are four kinds of food: food (also known as fighting food, eating with hands, chopsticks, knives and forks, three meals a day), touch food (feeling, sympathy, skin touch, breathing), thinking about food (thinking), and knowing food (knowledge related to the eight senses). When eating, green vegetables, beef and green onions are just one of the dishes, and the nutrition is just that.

People don't just live on nourishment, but those who have attained enlightenment can eat it once in a long time, and they won't die.

Touching is worse than partial eating. You're well nourished, but you're done without breathing. Breathing is not just breathing through the mouth and nose, burying a person in the earth from the mouth of the heart down will not be long before he dies, because the whole body has to breathe.

According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the pulse on the human body is not only in the wrist, but also everywhere in the body, and whether a person still has a pulse or not, and finally depends on the pulse on the buttocks, that is, the buttocks.

If there is no pulse there, it will never be saved. These are all tactile feeding, which is sympathetic, and the current electrocardiogram and electroencephalogram measurements are related to this.

The third is thinking about food, which is also very important. If you don't think that you will go crazy, that is the cruelest punishment.

Don't let you have a chance to think, don't let you look around, you will go crazy in three or five days, which is worse than killing your head, so freedom of thought is very important.

It is difficult to understand food, and only those who have to enter the Great Arhat can understand that he can determine that the body is not bad for 84,000 eons, and he will not eat or be bad.

The eighth alayas are transfigured, and they are fixed there, and their intellect is full, and they do not need to eat or drink.

When you go out to preach, you only know that there are four kinds of food, but you have no personal testimony to these four foods.

Like diet, it is true that it can be cut off, but you should not practice it yourself, if you don't know the correct way, you will definitely have stomach bleeding and surgery.
