Chapter 1024 - Being Able to Do Buddha Things (1)

Ananda Buddha said, "Never, World-Honored One! Such fragrant rice can do Buddhist things! ”

When Ananda heard Vimala's words, we can imagine that he shook his head and said to Shakyamuni Buddha, "I have never heard of anything like this, Buddha! A bowl of fragrant rice can actually do the cause of the Buddha! ”

The Buddha said, "So it is! So! ”

The Buddha said, "That's right! That's it! ”

Ananda, or there is a Buddha land, with the light of the Buddha to do Buddha things, Shakyamuni Buddha next all the way to Ananda, the real Dharma, is not a rigid way to keep a method.

In some Buddhist worlds, unlike where we preach, speak, recite Buddha, and fast, they use a variety of different methods to do Buddha things. If you do Buddha deeds with all the light of a Buddha, you will feel this light and become enlightened.

There are bodhisattvas who do Buddha things, there are people who are incarnated by Buddhas, and there are people who are incarnated by Buddhas.

In some Buddha worlds, great bodhisattvas do Buddha things, some people who incarnate as Buddhas do Buddha things, and some use Bodhi trees to do Buddha things.

For example, Shakyamuni Buddha enlightened under the Bodhi tree, and the tree was not originally called the Bodhi tree, but because the Buddha enlightened under the tree, it was called the Bodhi tree.

There are those who use Buddha's clothes and bedding to do Buddha things, and there are those who use Buddha's clothes and bedding to do Buddha things.

It is recorded in the scriptures that when the Buddha was alive, there was a disciple who couldn't go on the road no matter how he practiced, so this disciple wanted to borrow the Buddha's cushion to meditate, and when the Buddha knew about it, he immediately gave it to him.

As a result, the disciple went up and sat cross-legged, and he was convinced. So if any of you want any kind of clothes, you should buy them for her as soon as possible, and maybe you will become enlightened as soon as you put them on.

There are those who do Buddhist things with food, and there are those who do Buddhist things with garden views.

Some people have learned Buddhism and become enlightened because they have eaten a meal.

Sometimes when people go to the mountains or temples and see this scenery, they want to become monks and want to cultivate the Tao.

In the past, I had a friend, he was an official, he was very good at drinking, and he still carried a wine bottle on his back to Mount Emei!

After he went up the mountain, it was too dark to go down the mountain, and it rained again, so the master in the mountain temple left him to stay.

He lived in the temple, and there was no sound at night, only to hear the small monk chanting the Buddha and striking the bell, he threw away the wine bottle at that time, and went to the abbot to become a monk.

Therefore, this garden platform can really do Buddhist things.

So you can see that the Dharma is everywhere, and everywhere you can get into the Buddhahood.

There are those who do Buddha things with thirty-two phases and eighty phases according to their good form, some who do Buddha things with the body of the Buddha, and some who do Buddha things with emptiness, and all sentient beings should enter into the Vinaya with this fate.

There are those who do Buddha things in a good and solemn manner with the appearance of a Buddha, who takes this route? It's Ananda.

According to the "Lengyan Sutra", he saw the Buddha's good and solemn appearance and wanted to become a monk, and later went out to change his fate, and met a beautiful modern woman and moved his thoughts.

In fact, all the beings in our world are so beautiful.

How do you cultivate to be good and dignified? There are so many people in the world, why don't they have a good and solemn relationship?

This principle is worth studying, and that is the words of the Buddha: "All beings should enter into the Vinaya by this fate."

A person's ability to attain a dignified appearance and physical and mental health is the result of being purified by the precepts of many lifetimes, which is the result of moral behavior.

There are metaphors such as dreams, illusions, shadows, sounds, images in the mirror, moon in the water, and hot flames.

Some people go to study Buddhism because they have a dream, and some people learn Buddhism because they encounter some illusion. I have an old friend who was originally a devout Christian, but then he suddenly studied Buddhism and later changed to Avalokiteshvara. I made fun of him for engaging in comparative religion, which is to do Buddhist things because of illusion.

What shadow did someone see or hear...... And so on.
