Second, intelligently superior to Hai, clearly state what you like. In this preface, "Minh" is clearly stated, "Ki" is the self-proclaimed Grand Master Lien Tri. The phrase "Minghui is superior" means to clearly state what he likes and respects. In other words, out of so many methods, he himself chose which method to practice. Choosing a method will include many conditions in it, not an arbitrary choice. If you choose arbitrarily, then there is no need to say more here. Therefore, we must definitely measure our strength, the chosen method must not only be suitable for our own identity, but at the same time must not hinder our life and work. New is quite convenient. Otherwise, it is very difficult to achieve! Why? Studying Buddhism takes purity of mind as a guideline. If there are obstacles, it will not be easy for the mind to attain purity. When not studying Buddhism, pure mind; After studying Buddhism, the mind is in turmoil; That is the inappropriate choice of the method, so there is this paradoxical phenomenon. (Self) Chi Thua Thien Hue, governor of Kinh Tu, Vong Lac national vi Huong, admire Tu Ton as support market. Title: Respectfully obey the pre-sentence decree, wholeheartedly obey this Sutra, look forward to the homeland in Lac Quoc, admire the Tu Ton like parents. The word "Fairy" refers to the teacher, speaking closely is the teacher, obeying the teacher's instructions; If you say far, it will be to obey the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha. "Form" is the holy directive of the former emperor, the Buddha is the king of the Dharma, so in the Sutras, the Buddha's words are also called "Form". In the Sutra, the Buddha taught us: "During the Dharma period, the precepts are fulfilled", in the Dharma period, one only needs to practice the precepts and then one can realize the results. "Dharma Statue Period, Accomplished Meditation": During the Dharma Statue Period, Far away from Buddha, it is very difficult to practice the Precepts, just relying on keeping the Precepts can't get results, can't be enlightened, so you have to practice Meditation. “Dharma End Age, Pure Land Accomplished”: We are now living in the Dharma Ending Age, Great Master Lien Tri was also born in the Dharma Ending Age. In other words, we currently study Buddhism and choose this method as "Chi Vehicle", "Chi" is respect, "Chi Vehicle" is to respect the teachings of the Master Shakyamuni Buddha, old man. taught us thus, we must obey, must receive, the teaching of medicine. The "Doc liturgical sutra" wholeheartedly obeys this Sutra: The word "Tu Kinh" refers to this Sutra. (Performing) Tu Sutra praises the Pure Land, promotes the birth of Ultimate Bliss. Acting: This sutra exalts Ultimate Bliss and advises them to be born in Ultimate Bliss. This Sutra specifically praises the Western World of Ultimate Bliss and advises us to be born in Amitabha's Pure Land. That is the doctrinal tenet of this Sutra. (Acting) Trying to get lost in the country's homeland. Acting: So I long for Lac Quoc to be my hometown. "Luck Country" is the world of Ultimate Bliss, must consider that place as one's own home! (Performing) Tu Kinh instructs Di Da, encourages Di Da, tries to respect Tu Ton as support. Dien: This sutra only shows Amitabha Buddha, advises reciting the name of Amitabha Buddha, therefore, looks up to Tu Ton as parents. This Sutra teaches us to be born in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss, which method to use? The sutras tell us that in the Western world there is a Buddha, whose name is Amitabha. Amitabha Buddha once uttered forty-eight vows, each of which was intended to lead sentient beings to recite the Buddha's name in the ten directions to be reborn in that land, to teach us methods, and to advise us to recite Amitabha Buddha's name. Therefore, we respect the Venerable One like our parents. “Support” means parents. We consider Amitabha Buddha as our own parents. The following sentences are worthy of our abstinence. (Performing) Thien was born in exile, regardless of the origin of the country, the family of the house. Acting: Thousands of lives have drifted, not knowing where is their homeland. We live and die and die, die and live in the world, not just “Thousands of Life”! From immeasurable kalpas up to now, birth and death have been reincarnated non-stop. Reincarnation is real. We in America met a fellow initiate who clearly told us a story. He said his previous life could be an old Chinese expatriate living in America, died, reincarnated in Taiwan. He did business in Taiwan, the first time he came to America, the people and the place were unfamiliar. One day, when he was driving, he accidentally drove through a small city south of the Old Kim Son Bay (San Francisco Bay), his intended route was not to go there, I don't know why I lost my way, drove to that place. As a result, going there felt very familiar, even the small streets he knew. He thought: He was probably an overseas Chinese who lived there by digging ore. If not, I have never been to that place, why am I so familiar with the streets and houses there? This proves that there is indeed a previous life. Sometimes, when we travel, we suddenly feel that a certain place is very familiar, proving that you have been there in your past life. Because of this it proves: Humans really have a previous life, a previous life, of course there is an afterlife, there is an afterlife. Therefore, the past, present, and future three generations are real! The Six Paths of Reincarnation is indeed "Flowering" (floating), you cannot live safely anywhere. We do not have a residence, from the moment of birth we are busy because of this: That is death! Every day closer to death, life expectancy is decreasing day by day, day by day decreasing until death. Human life is like that. That's "Loving". Conventional religions believe that being born in Heaven is "Eternal" and living forever, that's a misunderstanding! Heaven is not about living forever, but like an ephemeral on the water, its life span is only a few hours! The ephemeral see that humans have a long life span, living up to several decades. It only takes a few hours for a lifetime to end, seeing that human life span is tens of years, a hundred years, isn't it the same as when we look at gods? How many hours does the ephemeral live, it feels like a lifetime. People live for decades, also feel like a lifetime. They feel that the few hours are too short and temporary. We feel that decades are also very short and temporary! Even if they were born in the sky of neither Perception nor Non-perception, with a lifespan of eighty thousand great kalpas, the gods still feel that their lives are short and temporary, just like us, no different. Therefore, the Buddha taught us: All three worlds are suffering! In the three worlds, there is no place to find peace. If you really want to find a place of peace, you must go beyond the three realms. In other words, if you want to escape from the six paths of reincarnation, you must do so. This is the truth! (Acting) Ten thousand lifetimes of digs and deaths, the taste of Ha Nhan Thi falls for her parents. Acting: I've been hiding forever, don't know who my parents are? This is also an example, like a person who flees his hometown, opposes the Buddha, leaves his parents and goes away. After leaving, there is no place to rely on, our parents are our refuge. Of course when you're an adult it's a different story; If an immature child leaves his parents, Such a difficult situation we can imagine. Today we endure all the bitterness in the six paths, not being happy. (Acting) Tu Kinh only appeared, feeling no hopeless skin threshold? Dien: This sutra has shown, how dare you not look forward to it? After all, where is the safe homeland? Who are parents that can really be relied on? In this Sutra, Shakyamuni Buddha pointed out. After He pointed it out, we should expect and respect it, then it is right, (So) Ky sloppy root, all the old stuff. Chi fake, wild glasses. The owner of jade yin, Phap Vuong Kim mouth, military name write "color". Doc worship, worship chi chi wild. So: Having considered himself as a novice, he must obey and respect the ancients as his teacher. "Chi" is glass. The voice of the king's pearls in the world, the golden mouth of the Dharma King are all called Sac. "Doc Phung": Yes, keep it to the extreme. This paragraph explains the first two sentences of the preface above. "Deep" is "Serious Ghost", which also means that you seriously reflect and review yourself. If we have a very messy nature, in other words, not a very intelligent person, we must follow the ancients, "Ancient Master of All": Being a "Dharma Master" (following, obeying) ), respect the ancients as teachers. If you have particularly outstanding intelligence, there's no need to talk about it; But if you are a person of middle and low nature, you must respect the ancients as your teacher, you will definitely have achievements, just like Menh Phu Tu respects Confucius as his teacher, and the Great Master Immortalizes the Great Master Lien Chi as his teacher, they are all " Ancient monks” (revering ancient people as teachers), are all taking ancient people as a model and typical for them to practice and study for themselves. The word "world master" refers to the emperor in the world, the orders and intentions of the emperor in the world are called Sac. People often call Sac "Sacred only". The Buddha is the Dharma King, the "Dharma King of gold". The word Kim has two ways of teaching: According to the legal aspect, "Kim" means noble; speaking in terms of generals, the Buddha's body is yellow, so the Buddha's mouth is called "Kim speech". "Doc worship" is to serve to the extreme, in other words, to serve one hundred percent, absolutely not reduce! (Acting) Character sloppy root, micro-nucleus can't be self-destructive. Acting: Having considered himself to be ignorant: As a human being, it is impossible not to think for himself. This is very well said. In the above part, it was said that people must self-assess and work hard to do anything big or small. Therefore, it is necessary to consider and weigh your own strength, think about your own identity, level, living situation and the current context of the current era. Consider from many aspects and then decide for yourself: If we follow this path, we should do it in such a way that this life will not be in vain! For worldly dharmas or worldly dharmas, if you want to have achievements, of course, achievements in worldly dharmas are the first. Accomplish worldly dharma to help others, achieve worldly dharma to accomplish one's own pure karma. When it comes to helping others, there are many ways. In the Flower Adornment Sutra, Thien Tai's pupils study fifty-three times, and these good and knowledgeable people represent all professions, men, women, old and young, all Bodhisattvas, all studying Buddhism. Therefore, studying Buddhism is not necessarily ordained, not necessarily living in temples. Whether you are in a company, factory, shop, or government agency, even in your own family, as long as you follow the Dharma, those places are all ashrams and will all be bodhisattvas. , All can become Buddhas, all can be reborn. If you want to communicate, explain, you must read the Flower Adornment Sutra. That is why “Self-examination” is so important! (Acting) Self-deprecating results of beneficial roots, self-righteous matrimonial rules, undirected Tathagata behavior. Acting: If he considers himself to be truly beneficial, his husband has the will to go to the heavens, not following the Tathagata's practice to practice. If it is really the first class of benefits, then yes, that person can indeed surpass the Buddha, surpass the Patriarch, cut enlightenment, and achieve enlightenment, but such people are ultimately very few! Let's not say anyone else, looking at the history of Buddhism in China, people like the Sixth Patriarch Hui Neng Grandmaster of the Zen School, before Hui Neng Grandmaster, have never seen anyone like that, but after him more than ever. In a thousand and three hundred years, no one has been like this. That is the true root benefit. Therefore, You can read the Dan Kinh, but you can't follow it. Why? We are not that kind of root nature, we can't learn! Haven't seen many Zen people who can be enlightened! If you don't believe it, read the Dan Kinh. When the Sixth Patriarch was in the world, there were thousands of people participating in Zen meditation with him. He abboted Cao Khe for thirty-seven years, there were tens of thousands of people who studied with him, only forty-three people were truly enlightened! Therefore, if you meditate, you will not be enlightened, it is really not easy! We must realize this! Studying Secrets, if you study with a very normal mind, you are considered lucky. I see a lot of people studying Tantra, after studying for a few years, their spirits are abnormal, and they are in big trouble! Therefore, we must understand our own identity. In the world's dharma, you can't even seize the opportunity, be deceitful, let alone the Buddha Dharma! Theoretically speaking, "Meaning to become a Buddha" is great, but it's not good for things! If the body becomes a Buddha in the face of things, I would like to tell you, there is only this Sutra, only the method of Buddha Recitation. Reciting Buddha's name, even if it's just a low-level product, is still a buddha, really! Therefore, this Sutra is praised by the Buddhas of the Ten Directions and the Buddhas of the Ten Directions. (Acting) Kim signed the root, all the ancient monks. Dien: Now that you have a root canal, you must respect the ancient people as your teacher. At present, we are not profitable, we can't cut super! Our root nature is very dull, our karma is deep and heavy. How do you know that your own karma is deep? For example, if we recite the Buddha's name for so long, not only can't we achieve one-pointedness, we won't even be able to achieve it by going to pieces! Not only is the effort into pieces not achieved, even when you recite Buddha's name during the fading time of an incense stick, during the fading time of an incense tree, ie an hour and a half, there are still many turns of hope. Isn't that a deep karmic burden? Even within an hour and a half that the practice can't be broken, there is still hopelessness; That is the general of deep karmic hindrance. We must know for ourselves that if we have karma, we must definitely respect the Ancient One as a teacher. People today have too many problems, we should not say who is good, who is bad, should not say that others are right or wrong, everyone practices in their own way, people practice in their own way. I, I practice my way, the two sides have nothing to do with each other. In the past, when I followed Mr. Ly, met the old man for the first time, he taught me two sentences: First, "Don't praise others", second, "Don't slander others". After listening to the lesson, I was a little skeptical, praising others is a good thing. Why should you not praise others? Think for a week or two to think clearly. Indeed, do not praise others! Praise is even more harmful to people than slandering, slandering causes people to be troubled. Complimenting also causes people to be troubled in the same way. Everyone praises him, but he does not know the height and thickness of the earth, feels that he is very extraordinary, arrogance, conceit all rise up, morality cannot progress anymore, only backward! Who can praise? If a person is not moved by the wind, you can praise him, but you can also slander him. You slander him, he doesn't get angry. You praise him, he doesn't think it's right. He seemed motionless. For that kind of person, praise or slander is fine! Therefore, if you wish to harm someone, praise him with all your might, praise him with all your might! Therefore, in cultivation, in mind, in moving thoughts, in words, and in gestures, all must have wisdom. Without wisdom, we often do wrong, but we think we are right, in Buddhism we call that person a fool! After all, who are the real good and knowledgeable people in this world? Who is the pseudo-knowledge? We don't understand. I liken the Shurangama Sutra to a love mirror. If you read carefully the Shurangama Sutra, demons and demons impersonate Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, you can see them immediately, you can recognize them. But in the end, you still have to have a little foundation in the Buddha's teachings to get it! If there is no basis, the current demons and ghosts are also teaching the Shurangama Sutra, so it is broken! Evil - right does not distinguish exactly, great trouble! Therefore, Master Lien Tri from five hundred years ago taught us: Take the ancients as your teacher, you can certainly be relied on! Now we study the So-so-Star Amitabha, who do we respect as our teacher? Ton Lien Tri Grandmaster as a teacher! It was an old man from five hundred years ago. Studying the Amitabha Classic of Compendium is to honor the Great Master Immortal Ich as a teacher. Mr. Nhieu Ich is a student of Mr. Lien Tri, a private disciple. (Acting) "Ancient Master" is self-proclaimed Thuong Thu, a false post-apocalyptic, all the effects of the first sense of the field. Acting: The two words "ancient monk" come from the book of Thuong Thu, which means: The latter must follow the behavior of the enlightened one. We have to learn according to the level of "Precognition". They are enlightened and accomplished people before us, they set an example for us, an example we should follow. That's right. In modern times, everyone recognized Master An Quang as a true wise man. His time is very close to ours, he lived between the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the National Era. Everyone who is close to Master An Quang has accomplished a lot. In Taiwan, there are many people who have been close to him, Vang Sanh appeared in a very good condition when he died. Master Li in Taichung was a student of Master Yin Guang. When I asked to study in Taichung, Master Li taught me to respect Grandmaster An Quang as a teacher, taking Grandmaster as an example, he told me to follow him, and especially warned me: "The ancients did not follow To Dong Pha's example. , people today do not follow Luong Khai Sieu". These two are both great lay people in Buddhism, the literature is very well written, the Buddha Dharma is also good, can both preach and write, but without any achievements, they cannot be reborn! They turn into Buddhist scholars who specialize in studying the Buddhadharma, not studying Buddhism. Therefore, Don't follow those two! Those who really have achievements in the Pure Land, we have to follow. That is the direction we should strive to follow. For example, this time we meet layman Su Hoang Hy. He knew that before he died, he didn't die from illness. If those who recite the Buddha's name are also successful, we will be born in the future, but when we are sick, we will not be equal to him. Grandpa is not sick! When we are born, when we die, we will see Amitabha Buddha coming to lead us, so we are not equal to him. I knew a few days in advance. That Rebirth is a thousand thousand parts true, no need for anyone to help recollect. Someone also asked: How are you? In fact, he is also an ordinary person, completely like us, nothing special! She lives in an apartment for the elderly in Los Angeles. His practice method is all day from morning to night a sentence of Amitabha Buddha. Her characteristic is that she can really let go: There are many children, she does not care at all, seeing her children is the same as seeing guests, that is, "Children are blessed" and their children are blessed. of your children, that's your business! Therefore, the new Buddha recitation can be elaborated into slabs, just as in this Sutra said: There is only one thought, no second thought; in the twelve times is just one verse of the Buddha's name. In the past, at the Patriarch's Recitation Hall, ie the Buddha Recitation Hall of Linh Nham Mountain, during the twelve periods of the Buddha's name without interruption, the moment reminded you not to interrupt the Buddha's name in the twelve times. How about at night? At night, there is a memorial service, in general, there are a few people who take turns on duty. Now it is possible to turn on the tape recorder, for twenty-four hours of uninterrupted recitation in that place, without the need for a watchman. Now, Although we can take advantage of machines, we lack good roots, why? If you don't use it, it's still interrupted. In the past, in the Nembutsu Hall, it took several hundred people to practice together to be able to do it, to divide the session so that twenty-four hours of non-stop recitation. Right now we don't have that blessing, but now we can take advantage of machines, everyone can recite the Buddha's name without interruption for twenty-four hours, the question is whether you will do it or not. ? In the United States, I warned fellow initiates, we must reduce our consumption, we should save everything, reduce it, but tape recorders should not be saved, must buy, must buy many tapes, collect as many tapes as possible reciting Amitabha Buddha. Only then can there be no interruptions. There are fellow cultivators who are very effective and very useful. Once there was a fellow practitioner, I was in a car accident and was slightly injured. Therefore, often have headaches, treatment for three years still does not go away, often have headaches. He came to ask me, I taught him to recite the Buddha's name. I told him to buy a cassette player to carry with him, to bring a headset to listen to the Buddha's name. A month or two later, he came to me and said, "Very effective, no more headaches!" Why? He wholeheartedly focuses on Amitabha Buddha, even if his head hurts he forgets everything, it is indeed possible to achieve results. Therefore, it is necessary to recite the Buddha's name a lot! (Su) Lost in the country of false incense, died of the Pure Land, mother of people living in peace, establishing their own lives, children leaving the country, living abroad, traveling abroad, living in peace, only thinking about children. Su: Saying "Luck Country is Homeland": The Pure Land that has ceased to exist is a place where people can live and live, but leave their old homeland and drift away from their homeland. a wandering child, only one thought to return! This passage has a very deep meaning, but it is also very essential. We look at the commentary in the Book of Interpretation. (Performing) Presidential destruction of the Pure Land. Acting: From the word "Pure Land Annihilation" onward... "Yi Ha" is the passage we just read. (Acting) Realistic Theory. Acting: Actually speaking according to Ly. Totally talking about the theory of Buddhist recitation. (Acting) An adventurer's birthday. Acting: But the passage talks about “Drifting, thinking about coming back” Like a wandering child drifting outside, after a long time, he always thinks about his hometown, looking forward to returning. (Acting) Diocese of the Ly Su Covenant. Acting: It can also be said that it belongs to both Ly and Su. It can be said that it belongs to both Ly and Su, both Li and Su. the land of honor. Acting: The Pure Land of Nirvana is the realm of Eternal President Quang, this is the land in the former homeland of the benefactor, the place where we take refuge in the Dharma Body and establish a life of wisdom. This is pure Ly. Here we must pay special attention. Where is our true homeland? The Common Light Pure Land. The Flower Adornment Sutra calls Chang Xi Guang Pure Land the One True Dharma Realm. One True Dharma Realm: Truth is not false hope; Most not easy to understand, it is not a number. If you fall into the number, it will be false, not true. The word Nhat here is a pronoun to represent dharma. The most here represents the legal world, is the general of all medical reports and dignified in space, the entire legal world; we use this word Nhat to symbolize. Similar words in Buddhism abound. For example Dai Phuong Quang, Dai is not as big as in big and small, it is not relative. Relative is the Second Meaning, not the First Meaning, leaving big and small is the real Dai. Leaving good and evil is true and good. Therefore, good is not good in good and evil, and purity is not pure in defilement - purity. For example, when we talk about enlightenment, we mean true enlightenment, not enlightenment because of delusion. The consciousness in the delusion is still the delusion, is still the unconscious. Right in the wrong direction is still not right, it is the Right that comes from comparison, not the righteous. Both sides of evil and right have abandoned all, that is the true Righteousness. It is impossible to fall to one side, in general, if the two sides still exist, they are still in the circle of treatment, discrimination, and attachment. The three words "Chang Tich Quang" denote the Dharma, Usually represent the Dharma Body, Tich denotes Liberation, and Light denotes Prajna. Dharma Body, Liberation, Bat Nha is often called the "Three Virtues of Secrets" in all the Mahayana sutras using three words "Common, Tich, and Light" to denote. We study Buddhism mainly in the hope that we can attain the Dharma Body, Liberation, and Prajna in our own nature like the Buddhas of the ten directions. Thus, becoming a Buddha is in fact the attainment of the Dharma Body, Liberation, and Prajna in self-nature. The dharmakaya does not have birth and death, so it is called permanent, unborn, and immortal. The Dharma Body is stillness, a single thought does not arise, it is pure to the extreme. The method of cultivation in this Sutra specializes in concentrating effort in Tich, Tich is Concentration. This sutra says, "One-pointedness is not disordered, one's mind is not perturbed." One-pointedness that is not perturbed is Tranquility and Concentration, and a mind that is not perturbed is Light, which is wisdom. Some people say that the Pure Land method has Concentration, but there is no Hue, that statement doesn't make sense! This Sutra requires yogis to dedicate themselves to the realization of Thuong Tich Quang. If you have attained Tich and Quang, you will of course also be able to attain Eternal. These three things, when you achieve one, will achieve all three, one but three, three but one. "The person who lives in his hometown and lands in the land": "The current person" is the person who is obeying, who is reciting the Buddha's name, and is his own original person. Often Tich Quang Pure Land is the "Old Homeland" of the land in our old hometown, here is an example. Zen people liken "Parents who give birth to the original face" of the inherent appearance before the birth of parents, the original person is himself. "Thi An fell to the Dharma Body, established the land of the land of wisdom and life": The place where our Dharma body and wisdom life can really be entrusted is the Eternal President Quang Pure Land. (Acting) Discharge of silver adventure. (Acting: Giving up wandering. This is also an example. (Acting) Falling in love with one's own mind. Acting: Falling in love with one's own mind. We fall in love with our own Chang Xiu Guang, you have to remember: Totally lost is not really lost. If it was really lost, it would be a big trouble, that's impossible! It's just that I'm lost, I'm lost, I'm an inherent self that I don't know, I don't know how to use it myself. If you are enlightened, you will know how to use it, and you will attain the Eternal Sacrifice. If you love it, you won't know how to use it; Although there is Chang Xi Guang, it is the same as if there is no Chang Xi Guang. It is self-indulgence. The general of the maze is.... (Action) Depending on the hexagonal ceiling. Acting: Chasing the six worlds. The "six worlds" are the outer realms: Form, Sound, Perfume, Taste, Touch, and Dharma. "Depending on the six-axis ceiling" is your mind often being rotated by the realm, that is delusion. (Acting) Wishes. Acting: According to Su. If speaking from the side of truth, what is the sign of delusion? (Acting) Tac Thi is not willing to go to the birth, to be attached to the test. To act: That is, do not wish to be born, and be attached to this realm. This is specifically stating "Depends on the six-ceiling ceiling" to pursue six ceilings. What is chasing the six ceiling? You do not wish to be born again, attached to this world; If there is attachment, it is passion. Must understand: What is rebirth in the West of Ultimate Bliss? Witnessing the realm of Permanent Presidential Light, ie the realm of Permanent Presidential Light in self-nature, because of this. Therefore, do not be attached to anything in this world, as long as there is even the slightest bit of attachment it will be an obstacle, attachment is a karmic hindrance. We have to reflect, will our own karma be eliminated? In fact, if your own karma is eliminated, you will know it clearly, without having to ask anyone else! Ask others, where can a person with high skill see see? Seeing that you are disdainful, at ease, that is the elimination of karma. Seeing you all day from morning to night, frowning, frowning, of course, karma is heavy. That is a certain morality. Self reflection will know immediately. If your own body and mind are pure, everything will drop, your karma will be eliminated. If you still have problems in your heart, your karma is very heavy! Historical layman Vang Sanh, to be honest, there was nothing else, he could let go. Therefore, you can know before you die. If you can't let go, if you get stuck with something, you won't be able to, really get stuck. Therefore, if you really want to be born, anything will be let down, depending on the conditions to live through the day, honestly reciting the Buddha's name! Don't say that the world has to come down, even the world has to let go. The story of spreading the law of profit and birth must also be let down, depending on the conditions, and should not be grasped. Clinging won't let go, must know this! Dependent but not predestined, when the opportunity comes, we do it, if there is no opportunity, then we don't figure it out. The ancients said: "Multiple things, no like least things, least things, no like nothing". More of one thing is not equal to one thing less. One thing less is not equal to nothing. When things come, they have to do, if they don't come, don't look for them, the mind will be pure. A pure mind will become a Buddha in this one lifetime. The mind is not pure, even if you do many things, tell you, enjoy the blessings in the human and natural path only! No matter how much you do, how much work you do, how much karma you create, you will be rewarded with good fortune! If the earth is not real, it is not only not a blessing, but also a karma creation, even less worth it! Therefore, not only do we not create guilt, but we also do not do meritorious blessings, we single-mindedly seek to be born in the Pure Land, comparable to those who have already been born, that's right! (Acting) One-pointedness of thought, proper mindfulness, and contemplation of great wisdom, such as the burial of a billion. Dien: A thought of coming back is a proper recollection, but not seeing the big things clearly, it's like burying one's parents. This is saying that we have to really work, "Tu Quy" thinking about returning is turning back, from where to turn back? Turn your head from where all day from morning to night start thinking. We all day from morning to night start thinking hope, now without hope, our concept of the most. What is "best"? Amitabha Buddha! I don't have a second thought, only this one thought (reciting Amitabha Buddha), if I don't start thinking about it, then whenever I start thinking about it, Amitabha Buddha. To tell the truth, it is not possible to have no thoughts, not to have thoughts is ignorance. and conception is wrong view. This is so annoying! There is only one sentence Amitabha Buddha, which is neither ignorance nor wrong view, which is called "Mindfulness and division". (Performing) Wishing, occlusion, often remembrance, self-reflection, owl continued, owl, standing, sitting, crouching, only trial, single-mindedness, non-second mind-set. Acting: Wishing according to the truth is often remembering, often thinking, each word is clear, each sentence that follows, walking, standing, lying down, sitting, there is only this one thought, there is no second thought. This is very important. In the past, when I lectured on the Sutras, I said: After the age of sixty, I decided to pay attention, to calculate for my own Rebirth in the Pure Land, I can't be busy anymore! Preaching the Sutras, preaching the Dharma, setting up the ashram, saving sentient beings for the young to take care of, currently, we consider the Western Pure Land to be the most urgent matter. other things do not do. Except for the Amitabha Sutra and the Fourteen Flower Adornments, the rest are not preached. Why? Birth and death is a big deal, don't let my Vang Birth story be missed, it's too unfair, it's not worth it at all! People came to me to lecture on the Sutras and gave money: “Dear shaman! I have several hundred million, we set up an ashram", that is an obstacle, why? Seeing that you want to be born again, find those things to block, trip you up, not let you go. I was not deceived by them! Currently, for me, reciting the Buddha's name is the first, there is no second, only the first. The Sutra only teaches one series, except for this Sutra, no other Sutra is taught! "The great wisdom" does not understand the great matter. The great matter of birth and death still has no news, it's "Wisdom". Know before you die, you already know, understand! You read the Sixth Patriarch Dan Kinh, the Sixth Patriarch knows a year in advance of his death, he understands! From a year ago, He sent his disciples to Quoc An pagoda to build a tower, preparing for the future after cremation to put ashes in it. A month before his death, he announced to the public that he was about to leave. After careful preparation a year before, it was the "Great Deed" who understood the big deal. Right now, we don't have any news, it's a big deal, it's okay! "Like the funeral of a sister": Like dead parents, unrelenting grief, everyone must be most careful about this. It's okay when young people mix, but now can't be mixed! Next, the Master quoted two sayings of the ancients. (Performing) Ancient people van: "The body, though unique, has a unique taste, and the heart is sent to the Pure Land of Heaven". Dien: The ancients said: "Although the body has not yet reached the land of lotus flowers, the mind has already been sent to Heaven for An Duong". Currently the body is still here, has not been born in the world of Ultimate Bliss, the mind has gone there, All thoughts are in the Western Pure Land. Think about it, if the mind has gone, is it possible that there is no Rebirth? Will definitely be reborn! This time our great lecture is to teach the Dharma of Reciting the Buddha's name in Universal Virtue, the Ten Great Vow Kings to lead to Ultimate Bliss. We again explain the outline of the Amitabha Sutra, clarifying the key points and key points in the theory, methods, and realms of the Pure Land in a simple way, allowing us to truly find our way on the bodhisattva path. Thread, really find a way out of the three realms. (Performing) Huu Van: "Western victory over many times, collects body and mind, returns to the past". Acting: Again said: "Western, dear friends, have been waiting for a long time, gather your body and mind and come back soon". "Winning friend" is Amitabha Buddha, Amitabha Buddha has been waiting there for a long time, waiting for us to get there. “Multiple times”: A long time ago, It's not waiting for hours or days, not for decades, but waiting for countless lives, how many lifetimes! Eternity and eternity have been waiting and you still haven't come! This life we ​​already know, we should turn around, don't let Him wait any longer. Amitabha Buddha extended his hand to lead us there, we should "collect body and mind soon to return". (So) Tu Ton language supports the attendant, the assistant writes Ngo Ho, the model writes Ngo Thi. So: Duc Tu Ton is called "Support", father called support, mother called thi. "Support" is the call to parents. (Su) The Buddha's great compassion welcomes sentient beings, the ego of the holy pregnancy, the self of the Dharma emulsion, ie the internal and external needles of the body, mind and body, whatever the child's grace has been established. Su: The Buddha, by his great compassion, welcomes living beings, uses the holy pregnancy to contain us, and nourishes us with milk of the Dharma. Even inside and outside this body and mind, there is nothing but the Buddha's grace and divine power to establish it. These sentences are true, but very few people know. The Buddha is great from the low, but wishes the Truth. Acting: From the sentence "Buddha's great compassion" onward is a wish according to Su and Ly. In this passage there are both Truth and Reason. (Performing) Wishing, the four and eight vows, the generosity of sentient beings, the marketing of living beings. Acting: According to the matter, the forty-eight vows to extend sentient beings are to receive sentient beings. This is speaking from the side. Try the method of reciting the Buddha's name, oblivion to destroy the name, and show nostalgia for the holy thai. Dien: Reciting the Buddha's name in this direction, the name mentioned in the other realm, is "using holy pregnancy to contain me". We as people in this place, whenever we generate aspiration to be born in the Pure Land, recite the name of Amitabha Buddha, in the seven-jeweled pond in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss will give birth to a lotus flower with our name written on it. self. At Cuu Kim Son, there was a fellow initiate, who had previously graduated from a university in Taiwan, and immigrated to live in Cuu Kim Son. When he recited the Buddha's name, he saw a lotus flower with his own name written on it. He saw it, didn't tell anyone else. When I went there to teach the Sutras, he told me, I encouraged him: "That good general is very good, let's work hard, in this life decide not to give up in vain." In the Story of the Birth and the Pure Land of Saint Hien Luc, there are records: Ancient people had many people who saw their own lotus flower, which was "Thanh Thai". In the future when we die, Amitabha Buddha will come to receive us, will hold that lotus flower to welcome us. The water bird receives the forest, the function declares the magic, the self-image of the Dharma emulsion. Acting: Water, birds, and trees all say the wonderful Dharma is "Nourish me with Dharma milk". These are all nurturing holy fetuses, refers to the realm in the Western Ultimate Bliss world. Currently, in the twelve times we have one verse of the name Amitabha Buddha without interruption, that is, "Dharma Emulsion". Buddha's name should not be interrupted halfway, this is more urgent than anything else! Buddha from the family, diligent in body and mind, never relinquished Bodhi, and when he was born, he became established. Acting: The Buddha was born from the home, diligently in body and mind, never retreating from Bodhi, was established by receiving grace. This association of ours in the present, everyone discusses issues here, we can be diligent, can not retreat, it is all because of the silent blessing of Amitabha Buddha, so we can do it. A lot of people asked me about teaching the Sutra, I said, "If you can't be blessed by Buddha's power, who can teach the Sutra?" Going to the stage to preach the divine power of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, Just use this mouth to speak. Therefore, the mind must be pure in order to be able to sense the way to communicate with Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. That is correct. Time is up today, here we go!
