Chapter 1234: Bond (63)

Hedgehog Love: The Bond (Varu Alan)

（63）

Recognizing the difference between appearance and truth is a prerequisite for becoming a Buddha.

Then, following the precepts of upholding, cultivating the virtues of the Buddhas, and planting a lot of good roots in the thousands of Buddhas in every lifetime, then, at a certain moment, when you finally hear some words and verses of the Buddhist scriptures, you will have pure faith in a single thought, and you will no longer have the desire for self, others, sentient beings, and immortality in your heart, and you will gain supreme understanding and become a Buddha on the ground.

As for the Buddhist scriptures, and the words and deeds of the patriarchs who taught the Dharma, we should not understand them according to the words and deeds that appear on the surface, but should appreciate the profound meaning they revealed. A qiē sage, because there is a difference in the depth of learning.

If a person gives alms with all the treasures of the world, that is to say, if he uses abundant financial and material resources to help those in need, will he have many blessings? The answer is yes.

If another person follows and defends this sutra, or even reciting only four verses of it and explaining it to others, then he will be blessed more than the one who gives with many treasures.

Why?

Because all the Dharma is born from this sutra.

This is because the giving of money can only relieve temporary difficulties, but the imparting of truth and wisdom can free people from the sea of suffering and gain peace of mind.

And every activity of human beings, in the final analysis, is to live in peace and die peacefully. 】

Now I feel different when I read the Buddhist scriptures. I didn't like that kind of mysterious manifestation before, but now I look at it as a dream. Buddhism does not scare people with imaginary fears and feelings of guilt, unlike other religions, but points to a blissful path to a blissful world of freedom and peace.

Moreover, this path is easy for everyone to learn and easy to follow, without any threshold and conditions, and will not delay daily life. It's as simple as reciting "Na (na) no (mo) Ah (e) Mida Buddha" every day as long as you have time. You can really "put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot".

If you are a little more pious, you can worship the Buddha statue, clean it every morning and evening, and worship the Buddha and chant sutras. This is one of the five sects of Buddhism, called the Pure Land Sect, and it is the easiest one to learn. Naturally, no matter what kind of method you study, if you believe in Buddhism, you have to "do all evil and do all good", and participate in all good things without touching any bad things, so of course, good luck will come.

On the west wall of my living room facing the main door, there is a plastic statue of the Three Holy Saints of the West, which was invited by my husband's second sister when she took me to the Wat Pho in 1997 to make a vow. In 2002, we moved with ordinary one-centimeter-wide scotch tape on the wall, think about it has been 9 years, and it is still firmly, indicating that the Bodhisattva is bless the safety of people and animals in the house, right?

Although I haven't been fasting and chanting Buddha sutras for more than ten years, only occasionally.

It is said that when you recite "Nam no Amitabha" ten times a day, the more the better, when you die, Amitabha Buddha will personally come to greet you in the Western Elysium. That's why when some people are dying, the people next to them smell the aroma or hear the music.

It was not difficult to recite it ten times, and I decided to stick to it every day, so that I could tell myself to do good and not think and do evil things. As for Qionglou Yuyu, abundant food and clothing, immortality, freedom and joy, and the four seasons are like spring...... The Pure Land of the West, as if it were a zài, why not?
