Chapter 25 Buddhist Tantra
Barren Mountain put away the Lingyun Sword Spectrum, at this time Barren Mountain was not in a hurry to cultivate, Barren Mountain entered the Divine Emperor Palace, and wanted to know some of the views of the powerful on the universe, so as to understand more about the universe. [Ran^Text^Library] []
Barren Mountain walked to the Scripture Pavilion, Barren Mountain entered it, and began to look for it, there are many powerful people in the universe, they will record all their opinions and perceptions, and future generations will figure it out.
Soon Barren Mountain found a book called "Buddha Said", the introduction of the book is that the tantric Buddhism is written by Miluo Buddha, which is Miluo Buddha's views and opinions on the universe.
The book comes from Buddhism, and the barren mountain gently turns the first page of the book, which reads. In the first year, the Three Realms are six realms and nine places, and the barren mountains turn the second page, which is full of dense children, and the barren mountains read carefully
As for the structure of the cosmic celestial bodies, I think it is a feeling of sentient karma. The Buddha's teachings are intended to turn away from delusion and enlightenment, and the Dharma is focused on the discernment of the mental dharma, and the formation of the world is not too much to be investigated.
The cosmic refers to space (universe) and time (universe). In the Buddhist scriptures, it is called the Dharma realm, the Dharma is the dharma, and the realm is the dividing boundary. It is also said that it is true, because of the same nature. The universe is the world, and there are two kinds of sentient worlds and material worlds. The sentient world, that is, sentient beings, the body and mind that are sensed by the karma of previous lives, that is, the sentient self, the five aggregates and false harmony, the adult heavenly ghosts, animals, etc., are also known as the sentient world. In the world, there are mountains, rivers, and the earth that can rely on their own bodies. The sentient world is a positive retribution, and the world is a retribution, and the sentient world is retribution, so it is a famous instrument. World: The world is the righteousness of migration, the righteousness of destruction, the meaning of separation, and the separation of all things is called the world.
There are three kinds of desires in this world, the color realm, and the colorless realm, and there are three realms: the sentient beings are the five realms of hell, hungry ghosts, beasts, and heaven, or the six realms of asuras. Those who are in the realm hold righteousness, each holding on to himself, and the righteous race, which is common to himself, and the righteous who are different, and different from each other, and not mixing with each other. The Taoist, the Tao is righteous, and all beings are reincarnated. Or there are five interests, fun is the righteousness of the past, and the karma of all beings is due to the difference in the place of interest.
1. The realm of desire
The world in which lust, greed, lust, lust, lust, and strong sentient beings inhabit is the realm of desire. In this world, there are four continents, four continents, and six desires in this world.
Hell: No pleasure, and there are bitter tools, bitter instruments, and places of sin. Hell has a fundamental hell, a near-side hell, and a lonely hell. There are eight hells and eight cold hells.
Near-Side Hell: Sixteen Trips to Hell. That is, among the eight hells, each of the eight hells has sixteen small hells to increase its suffering, which is one hundred and twenty-eight, and eight to add eight to one hundred and thirty-six hells.
Lonely hell: Feeling by each person's own karma, alone in the void or in the mountains, etc.
Ghosts: There are the most hungry ghosts in the ghost category, and the ghosts in the five fun are said in the hungry ghosts. Often hungry and thirsty, fearful and afraid of famous ghosts.
Animals: Creatures who are born in the clouds and walk in the clouds, carrying the sky, wearing fur and horns, and having many feet and no feet.
People on the four continents: think about it a lot, so the name is a person. There are four continents in which people are different. Mt. Middle Sumeru is the center of a small world, and by sentient karma, from the empty realm, the wind rises from all directions, and rushes against each other and does not move into a wonderful wind wheel. The second golden clouds spread all over the void, and the heavy flood rain poured into the wind wheel and became a water wheel. The second wind, hit this water, so that the knot into gold, for the gold wheel, there are nine mountains on the golden wheel, Mount Meru (translated cloud Myoko) in the middle of the dwelling, out of the water 80,000 by ten years, into the water is also the same. Outside this high mountain, there are holding doubles, holding shafts, carrying wood, good views, horse ears, elephant trunks, holding edges, and seven gold mountains surround it, which is a small world. Between Mount Meru and the Seven Mountains, there is a sea called the Inland Sea. There is the Aral Sea outside the Seven Mountains, and the Tiewei Mountain is the limit, which is the open sea. The open sea is the Aral Sea, and there are four continents in all directions, and there are four clouds in the world.
(1) South Ganbu Continent, this continent has Ganbu forest, the tree shape is tall, and its fruit is sweet.
(2) The east wins the body, and the body wins.
(3) West Cattle Cargo Island, with cattle as goods.
(4) North Julu Continent, the most victorious in the four continents of China. The sun and moon rise, the north continent is in the middle of the night, the east continent is not in the sun, the south continent is in the middle of the day, and the west continent is sunrise.
Six Desires:
Heaven refers to the beings who live in the upper realm, happy and victorious, pure and bright, and the world is incomparably called heaven. Six days have the desire to be named and the six days to be desired.
(1) The Four Heavenly Kings, on the mountainside of Sumeru, there are the East Holding Country Heaven, the West Wide Eye Heaven, the South Growth Heaven, and the North Duowen Heaven.
(2) The day of Deli, and the clouds for thirty-three days, on the top of Mount Meru, eight days on each side, and in the center is the emperor Shakti.
(3) The night sky, translating the clouds, the other day is always happy.
(4) Seeing the history for many days, the translation of the cloud is happy, and the five desires and pleasures are happy and content.
(5) Turning into Lotte Lotte : Self-transforming all wonderful desires and enjoying pleasure in it.
(6) He is free in the sky: In the realm of his wonderful desires, he is free to be happy. This day can take what he has turned into and entertain himself. It is also the heavenly demon of the four demons. Demons, life-taking, obstacles, disruptions, destruction. The four demons are:
(1) Troubles: Greed and other troubles can annoy the body and mind.
(2) Yin demons: The five aggregates such as color can give rise to all kinds of suffering.
(3) Death demon: Death can cut off the root of human life.
(4) He is free to transform into a heavenly demon: he can harm people and do good deeds. In other words, in the sixth heaven, there is no demon palace, and the demon king Bo Xun (the evil one) lives in it, and he is not the king of other heavens.
For six days, the four kings, the Celestial and the Celestial lived in the heavens. The remaining four live in the air, the name is empty and the sky is empty, the emperor is the four kings, and the two gods of the Celestial Realm, and he turns the king of the heavenly realm into the lord of the desire realm.
Second, the color world
color, quality hindrance for righteousness. In this world, there is no desire for men and women, but also a return to the food, quiet and pure, only the form of victory, the color body of the positive report, and the palace and land of the newspaper are very wonderful and exquisitely called the color world. Although the world of desire is also colorful, he wants to win but wants to speak. The place where the colored heavens are born from the four kinds of meditation, because there are four kinds of shallow and deep meditation, there are also four places where the birth is high.
There are three days of initial meditation:
(1) Brahma: the great Brahma is incarnated.
(2) Brahma Futian: The auxiliary phase of the great Brahma.
(3) Great Brahma: Born of great goodness. These three days are free from desire, quiet and pure, so it is called Brahma.
The second meditation has three days:
(1) Less light day: It is said that there is the least light on this day.
(2) Immeasurable light: It is difficult to limit the amount of light that turns into light.
(3) Aurora Pure Sky: Before the victory of light. It is also known as the light sound sky, with light as the language, and the mouth is pure light.
Three Meditations for Three Days:
(1) Less pure day: the intention is happy, and the joy is pure, and the net is not as pure as the upper name.
(2) Immeasurable net day: This net turn is difficult to limit.
(3) Pure heaven: This pure circumference.
Four Meditations and Eight Days:
(1) Cloudless sky: The previous heavens lived by the clouds, and this day lived by the sky.
(2) Fushengtian: There is victory and blessing.
(3) Guangguotian: The most victorious result. There is no thought about this, and the first phase of the retribution does not work, so the name has no thought. For Guangguo Tianshi, there is no other place.
(4) No troubles: no troubles.
(5) No hot days: the mood is soft and gentle, and the heat is annoying.
(6) Seeing the sky well: seeing the sky is extremely clear.
(7) Good Appearance: Virtue is easy to show.
(8) Colored sky: There is no place in the colored sky that can be more than this. The next five days are the five pure dwelling heavens, which are the heavenly places where the Three Fruit Sages are born. Or in the end of the sky, set up a great freedom in the sky, dwelling at the top of the color world, and the main world has great power.
3. Colorless Realm
The appearance of the invisible body in this world is separated from lust. Positive retribution is only subject to the false harmony of wanting to act and recognize the four aggregates, and there is no colored body. There is no land to rely on, only to live in profound meditation with knowledge. Before the victory of karma, in the color world, the positive retribution obtained by cultivating the four emptiness in this realm, there are four differences between the victory and disadvantage of meditation life:
(1) Boundless emptiness: disgusted with color and boundless observation.
(2) Knowing the boundless sky: disgusted with outer space and thinking about the boundless understanding of inner knowledge.
(3) Nothing is in the sky: the view of disgust and thinking about nothing.
(4) Non-thinking, non-thinking, non-thinking: concentration is wonderful, non-making up minds, so the name is not thinking, and there are thoughts, so they are different, and the name is not thinking.
Asura: Translating clouds is not heaven, the retribution is the most victorious, but there is no heavenly virtue, so the name is not heaven. It has great divine power, or lives on the submarine coast, or lives in the grottoes of Mount Meru, and is combative.
The Three Realms are also known as the Three Beings, and the realm of life and death has causes and effects, so it is called Being. The hells, hungry ghosts, and beasts in the Three Realms are the three paths, or the three evil realms, and the cause of killing, stealing, and adultery is the result of these three evil realms. Human, heaven, and asura are the three good paths, and the three paths are the six paths, and the shravaka, the enlightenment, the bodhisattva, and the Buddha are the four holy realms, and the six paths and four holy realms are called the ten dharma realms.
The Three Realms are divided into two places, and the land is also based on the place. If you want to be famous, you can't pay attention to one realm because your heart is scattered and rough. The colorless world can live in deep and wonderful meditation, concentrate on subtle silence, and be able to focus on a realm, so the name is fixed.
Fourth, nine places
According to the three realms, there are nine places, one place in the desire world, four places in the color world, and four places in the colorless world, and four places in the colorless world, a total of nine places.
(1) Five interesting mixed habitats: they are all scattered and become one.
(2) Joy of rebirth: The first meditation of the color realm, the desire of the desire of the desire and the evil and ungood dharma of the realm of desire, and the joy of receiving.
(3) The joy of fixed birth: that is, the second Zen day, the joy of seeking and serving from the beginning of meditation, turning victory from meditation, and being born from concentration.
(4) Leaving the joyful land: that is, the three Zen heavens. Away from the two Zen desires, and away from the two Zen rough movements, there is the joy of separation, the joy of living quietly and wonderfully without distinction, and the joy of separation.
(5) Pure place of sacrificing thoughts: that is, the four Zen heavens, away from the desire of the three Zens, there is joy so there is movement, the heart is equal and upright when leaving happiness and seeking service, and the heart is not moving and can settle down in the name and the mind is pure, although it is away from joy and seeking to serve without forgetting the loss, it is clear that the mind is pure. Because of the joy of departing, the pure house is accepted, the name is given, and the mind is pure.
(6) Boundless emptiness: disgusted with physical obstacles, destroying all lustful thoughts, and being single-mindedly dependent on emptiness, corresponding to emptiness.
(7) Knowing the boundlessness: disgusted with the void, eliminating the void, and turning the mind to Knowledge.
(8) Having no place to belong: Feeling that there is still something to rely on, and being disgusted with the mind is dwelling in silence without anything.
(9) Non-thinking, non-thinking, non-thinking, concentration, no coarse thinking, no careful thinking.
The difference between undecided and extinct certainty. Non-thinking is the meditation of the outer path in order to obtain the result of non-thinking, and it is the meditation that can not be remembered in the center of the meditation, and the truth has not yet been broken, which must be the color realm; Those who have entered into the state of extinction will stop all their thoughts and thoughts and cut off their greed and seek merit in the world, and if they enter into no thoughts, they will try in vain to think of liberation and seek the happiness of the world. Destroying the whole thing is sure that there is no karma leakage, and there is no retribution of life and death in the Three Realms; Extinguishing all of them is not the same as destroying the sixth consciousness and destroying the seventh consciousness, but there is no thought of destroying the sixth consciousness of the distinction, and the seventh consciousness cannot be extinguished, and the evil views are not broken. Therefore, there is a difference between the advantages and disadvantages of this world and the world, and whether you feel the fruit or not.
Section 2: Three Thousand Worlds
From hell to the heavens of the color world, the day and the moon are all over the streamer, and the place is called a world. That is, with Mount Meru as the center, a small world with nine mountains and eight seas. One thousand days and moons, one thousand six desires, and one thousand early Zen are a small world. A thousand small worlds are medium worlds. A thousand middle worlds are a great thousand worlds. A large thousand worlds, including three kinds of small thousand in the large thousand, collectively known as the three thousand worlds, this is a Buddha land, that is, a Buddha realm, called the world of Supo. Su Po Yi is, the six realms of this world are all living together. It is also forbearant and righteous, and all beings in this world are content with the ten evils and refuse to leave, and deliberately forbearance from the name of the people. "The Book of Sadness" clouds: "It is all sentient beings who endure the three poisons and all troubles, hence the name of the land of forbearance." "And when the bodhisattvas are doing good things, they are worthy of all the troubles and righteousness.
The third section is the four tribulations
The Buddhist scriptures divide the world's growth and deterioration into four phases, or the four eons. The robber, translating the cloud time, the big time, the long time. This time cannot be calculated in ordinary years, months and days, and the time is rarely an instant, and the time is extremely long. From the immeasurable years of life, which is reduced by one year to 10 years of age, and from 10 years to 1 year of age, and from 10 years to 1 year of age, and then to 84,000 years. This increase and decrease is reduced to one small eon, that is, 16.8 million years. The twenty small tribulations are one medium tribulation, and the middle tribulation is divided into four calamities. There are twenty increases and decreases in the eons, or 336,600,000 years. The same is true of dwelling in the void, where there are four eons with a total of 80 increases and decreases, i.e., 1,344 million years as one great eon.
(1) Cheng Zheng: Cheng Zheng is the first period when the world view is established. The first small tribulation becomes the world, and the last nineteen small tribulations become the sentient world. All the sentient karma has increased its strength, and there is gradually a slight wind in the air, and the wind is gradually increasing, and even the establishment of the Golden Wheel. At the beginning of the tribulation, there was a sentient being who was born from the light sound heaven (aurora pure heaven) in the first Zen great Brahma, which was the Brahma king. Later, all sentient beings gradually gave birth to the Brahmans and the Brahmans, and the next gave birth to the six desires of the heavens and even the beasts and hungry ghosts, and finally the sentient beings were born in the endless hell, and they became full of calamities.
(2) Dwelling Tribulation: When the world exists in peace after its founding, the initial life span is extremely long, and the initial life span of the dwelling tribulation gradually decreases, decreasing by one year every 100 years, and reducing to 10 years old is the reduction of the calamity, and there is no increase; At the end of the catastrophe, the sword soldiers rose quickly. Bad positive news.
(3) Bad calamity: Settle down and return to destruction, the first nineteen calamities destroy the sentient world, and the latter calamity destroys the world of bad weapons. Bad calamities are the opposite of eons, which gradually ascend from hell to the end of hell, and each has its own karmic causes, either ascending to Zen or being reborn in other worlds. The fire of the last tribulation burned down the first Zen, the second Zen has water rising, the third Zen wind rising, and this instrument is bad in the world.
(4) Empty Tribulation: This is the only void after the destruction, and there are also twenty minor tribulations. At this time, the worldview is empty, like an ink hole, there is no day and night, sun and moon, only the great underworld.
In the realm of the universe, the void is boundless, the world is immeasurable, and the four hours of the void are endless; the time has no beginning and no end, and there is no end before and after, cause and effect are continuous, and there is a cause before it, and it is impossible to know its beginning; and there is a result after the effect, and it cannot be measured at the end.
Five Skandhas
a. The five aggregates -- the five aggregates of seeing, receiving, thinking, acting, and knowing are called the five aggregates, and the "aggregates" are the meaning of "accumulation". Also known as the "five yin", "yin" is the meaning of "obscure", which can cover the true nature of the law and cause all kinds of troubles. The meaning of the five aggregates is explained as follows:
(1) Color -- that is, matter, which turns obstacles into righteousness, is created by the four great kinds of earth, water, fire, and wind.
(2) Acceptance: Acceptance is righteousness, including suffering, happiness, and giving.
(3) Thinking -- taking images and imagining righteousness, taking all kinds of appearances and thinking in the realm of good, evil, hatred, love, etc.
(4) Action - the flow of ideas is endless, and all creations are righteous. That is, to create good and bad karma by action.
(5) Cognition -- Knowing what is not righteous, and knowing the realm of other causes and being right from the mind.
b. The four major functions and color methods - the four major earth properties are hard, water-based and humid, fire-based warm, and wind-based. The composition of the root body and the instrument realm in the color method all have the function of these four major combinations. For example, the joints and claws of our body are large in the earth, sweat and saliva, pus and blood are convenient, they are large in water, warm in heat is in fire, and breath is in the wind. The mountains, rivers, and earth in the instrument world, as well as all the utensils, also have these four major functions.
c. The Four Great Bodies and the Root Body -- The Four Great Ones are earth, water, fire, and wind. The root body is our body. The Buddha said that the four elements are the elements that make up the root body, that is, our body is the illusion of the four major harmony, and if a person dies due to a serious illness due to the four major disharmony, then the root body is broken, and the causes of the four major harmony will dissipate, so the Buddhist scriptures say: "The four great emptiness."
d. The aggregates and the root body – the sum of the aggregates of the root body is not excellent, the five aggregates of receiving, thinking, acting, and knowing, and it is from the combination of these aggregates that we become the illusion of our body with mental effects, and when the supporting conditions of these relationships are dissipated, the body is also broken. Therefore, the Buddhist scriptures also say: "The five aggregates do not exist."
e. The Buddhist scriptures say: "The four essences are empty", the five aggregates are non-existent, the fate is united, and the fate is dispersed. ”
That is to say, the "root body of the five aggregates" is the voidness of dependent nature, and one should not have attachment to these "root natures of the five aggregates" and bind oneself to one's troubles, and then there will be karmic retribution, because it is the "five aggregates that recompensate" from the karma.
12. Karma
The Twelve Causes are also known as the Twelve Causes. These 12 dependent origins are an explanation of the course of life, in other words, an explanation of the flow of life and death of sentient beings. All sentient beings, even the natural world, are dependent and interdependent. The Ahama Sutra says: "There is this and there is another, this life is born because of another, this is not for a reason, and this is destroyed because of that." Therefore, the individual and society, the spirit and the material, are all forms of interdependence.
The 12 dependent origins are the branches of the 12 mutual dependencies to illustrate the establishment of real life.
1. Ignorance -- A general term for past afflictions, which means ignorance, or ignorance, or darkness. As a result, ignorance and recklessness lead to the reincarnation of sentient beings in the world, which is the foundation of life and death.
2. Actions -- It is the meaning of "deeds" or "deeds", that is, according to the ignorance and afflictions of the past, the three karma of body, mouth, and mind are activated, sometimes doing good karma, sometimes doing evil karma, and sometimes doing ungood and not evil. This "action" and the "ignorance" above are the confusion and karma that we have done in the past, and this is the content of the four noble truths.
3. Consciousness - The mind of the womb at the beginning of the womb, driven by the confusion of karma in the past, enables the alayas to receive retribution, meet the fate of the womb, and complete the present life body.
Fourth, the name and color - the name is the mind, belongs to the spirit, and the color is the essence and blood of the parents, belongs to the substance, so the name and color are the elements for the establishment of sentient beings, that is, the initial formation of the fetus, and does not have six roots.
Five, six into - for the six to complete the position, that is, in the womb the name of the color gradually increased, eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, mind, six roots, also gradually sufficient. However, at this time, the fetus is only a few months in the mother's womb, although it has become a model of six roots, the feeling of the outside world, only a little sense, and the role is not complete, so it is called "six into", which is the embryonic period of life.
6. Touch - that is, after being born out of the womb, contact with the realm and the generation of feelings, that is, the beginning of the understanding of the realm. For example, from the infancy period from birth to the age of one year, and the early childhood period of the second year old, when they come into contact with the external environment, they only have a simple perception, and they cannot distinguish between right and wrong, suffering and happiness, and there is no distinction between hatred and love, and all actions are very naïve, then it can be said to be a chaotic period of touch. By the age of three to five, children are more aware of the outside world.
7. Receiving -- that is, the feeling of contact with the outside world: it refers to suffering, happiness, and giving. For example, from the age of four or five to childhood (six to twelve) and even youth (thirteen to twenty-three), the mind gradually develops, the scope of the environment gradually expands, daily life and food, reading and playing games and other desires also increase with the years, and happiness in good times and pain in adversity, especially in youth, the feeling of love and hatred is especially obvious. This is called the "receiving stage".
8. Love - to be dyed with greed for righteousness, from the receiving, for the realm of the pursuit of the receiving. For example, in youth, there are all kinds of intense* attachments to the greed for possessions and men and women*, and some people are cheating and have pregnancy before marriage, so in this "stage of love", especially young men and women, it is advisable to be cautious in subduing their actions*.
9. Take one is to take one as righteousness, that is, to pursue the realm of love, that is, to be greedy for the realm of material desires, to take it as one's own, and to be full of one's own. As a result, the three karmas are impure, creating negative karma, tying the body with karma, and integrating the future body, the suffering causes of the mind, all of which are derived from "love" and "taking".
10. Existence - that is, the meaning of the existence of existing karma. It is said that because of love, it is endless, and now it creates more negative karma, which constitutes potential karma, and there will be retribution after feeling it.
11. Rebirth - that is, to be reborn in the future, due to one's own potential karma, to be reincarnated again, to complete a new life in the future.
12. Old age and death -- this is the reason that since we want to be reborn in the next life, we will inevitably have to die of old age, and the cycle of cause and effect is endless. Because in the future, there will be old age and death, birth, old age, sickness and death, sorrow and suffering, and so on. "Birth" and "old age" are the two causes and effects of future lives, that is, the content of the truth of suffering is distinguished in detail.
The 12 karma illustrate the cycle of life and death, which is through the three lives of the present and the future, from the ignorance of the fate of the line, the line of fate and knowledge, the knowledge of the fate of the fate, the fame and the color of the fate of the six in, the six into the fate of the touch, the touch of the fate of the receiving, the love of the fate, the love of the fate, the fate of the taking, the fate of the birth, the old age and the death, the continuous circulation, called the flow of the door. And the cause and effect of this flow gate: from the two branches of "ignorance" and "action" in the past, to the five branches of "knowledge", "fame", "six entry", "touch" and "receiving" in the present life. And from the three causes of "love", "taking", and "being" in this life, the two fruits of life and old age and death in future lives arise. The so-called life is such that life and death are born, dead and born, and the cycle is endless, which is called reincarnation, and it is not at all
"Confusion" and "karma" are the causes, resulting in the bitter consequences of life and death. Shakyamuni's enlightenment is to realize the principle of the 12 dependent origins of the outlook on life. If the path of cultivation breaks ignorance, in addition to love, you can liberate life and death, so from the "return to extinction" of the twelve causes: ignorance is extinguished, and if you are extinguished, you will be destroyed, and if you are extinguished, you will be destroyed, and if you are extinguished, your name will be extinguished, and even the life and death of the next life will also be destroyed.
The 12 causes and conditions are the methods practiced by the Dependent Senses. The sage of the Yuanjue is more than the sound of the Buddha's four noble truths, and the Buddha is enlightened from the truth of suffering, and the Yuanjue is realized from the set of truths, so it is deeper than the sound and hear. Dependent consciousness is caused by the ignorance of the collective truth, and the dependent origin of the twelve causes and conditions is not required to listen to the Dharma, that is, to attain enlightenment according to one's own strength, also known as one-self-awareness, that is, to be the Buddha of the Buddha. Therefore, the Yuanjue vehicle is also called the single enlightenment vehicle, or the Buddha vehicle, and because it is more advanced than the sound vehicle, it is called the middle vehicle, and it is lower than the Buddha vehicle and the bodhisattva vehicle.
