In fact, not only to learn Buddhism, but also to do everything in the world, if you look at a successful entrepreneur, he just believes, and he does it as soon as he puts it down. But we smart people can't do it, so we won't succeed.

"Craftsmanship and skill", this includes more...... You have to learn everything, and you have to know everything.

"As far as this happens", everything that has been learned can be entered into the Tao at home. Why do people who learn the bodhisattva path learn so many knowledge and skills?

In order to "benefit all shumans", not for oneself, but to help others and solve their difficulties. This is also the difference between Mahayana and Hinayana methods. Those who have received bhikshu and bhikshuni ordination know that fortune-telling, arithmetic, etc., are forbidden in the Hinayana precepts. When it comes to the Mahayana precepts, these are not only not transgressions, but they are also merits. Is there a conflict?

No, the Mahayana path is the intention of adults. It's really an adult, as I said earlier: "Righteous people use evil laws, and evil laws are also good." Evil people use the Fa-rectification, and the Fa-rectification is also evil." The Hinayana precepts are preventive, negative, and to avoid evil. The Mahayana Bodhisattva path is different, even if it is a demonic thing, it dares to do it, how much courage, how much willingness, how much ability! Therefore, adults can achieve great things, and if they are villains, it is good to do small things, and don't be ambitious.

So I want you to study medicine, it is the most convenient way to save people, you can relieve people's pain, at least you should always be able to acupuncture, in case you come to a poor area in the future, there are no good medical facilities, and patients have no money to buy medicine, you carry a pack of needles with you, can help people relieve some pain, isn't it immeasurable?

But some colleagues set their hearts to study medicine today, physiognomy tomorrow, and what to learn the day after tomorrow, and in the end they only learned to sleep, and they did all the empty things. In Mahayana terms, it means breaking the vows, and the intention is not real! It's child's play, self-deception, and careful retribution.

"All the ways in the world are known in the middle of the monks, because they can solve people's confusion and not fall into evil views." This is even more difficult, because if you want to go to various religious groups and become monks, you must at least get started with the five major religions of the world. True Buddhism never excludes other religions, but embraces all religions. At present, there are hundreds of religions in the world, but if you go crooked for a while, you can still go back to the right path. The side door is also a door, and the left road is also a road, but it is pitiful and roundabout. The main thing is to make people good and teach people to do good deeds, and as for whether the highest truth is right or not, we will not talk about that. The Vimala Sutra says that Mahayana Bodhisattvas have this spirit, and even cults have joined them, why? Educate them in their midst, and guide them on the right path. But you yourself have to be able to not fall into the fall of the outer way, then you can do it.

"Or be the sun, the moon and the sky, the Lord of the Brahma world, or the earth and water from time to time, or the wind and fire again. If there is a disease in the calamity, it is now used as all kinds of medicinal herbs, and if there is one who takes it, it will remove the disease and eliminate the poison." As mentioned above, the mind and object are one, where is the Bodhisattva? You are careful to be vegetarians, the green vegetables are the meat of the Bodhisattva, it is true, the mind is one yuan, you don't think that you are not killing. The fish and meat you eat are all the meat of the Bodhisattva, but you don't know that there is no fault for him, he just wants you to eat it, and he will help you enter the right path after eating it. Therefore, the "Huayan Sutra" says that the Great Demon King, the Emperor of the World, and the Emperor of the Taiping and Prosperous Times are all reincarnated by Bodhisattvas of more than ten places. The good king is good, the demon king is difficult, without that merit and courage, it is not easy to talk about!

Or sometimes it turns into the earth, into water, into wind, into fire, into matter. In the world, one of these four things is indispensable. Even when the catastrophe comes, there will be many strange diseases.

"When there is famine in the calamity, he appears to eat and drink, and first saves him from hunger and thirst, but he is French." When the time comes for famine, the bodhisattva incarnates as food and drink, providing for all sentient beings, first solving the problem of hunger and thirst, and then educating sentient beings with the Dharma.
