Introduction to Buddhist scriptures

As a disciple of the Buddha, I often recite the Eight Classics day and night:

The first consciousness: impermanence in the world; The land is fragile, with four bitter emptiness, five yin without me, birth and death variation, hypocrisy without owner, heart as the source of evil and form as sin. If you observe it, you will gradually leave life and death.

The second awareness: more desires are bitter; Life and death fatigue, from greed, less desire and inaction, physical and mental comfort.

The third awareness: the heart is not satisfied, but more, increasing sin; Bodhisattva is not good either, always thinking about contentment, being poor and keeping the right path, and wisdom is the industry.

The fourth kind of consciousness: slack and depravity; Always be diligent, break troubles and evils, destroy the four demons, and leave the prison of the underworld.

Fifth consciousness: stupid life and death; Bodhisattva often reads, learns and listens, increases wisdom, achieves eloquence, educates everything and enjoys great happiness.

The sixth sense: poverty and resentment, making bad relationships; Bodhisattva gives alms, waits for resentment, does not remember old evils, and does not hate people.

Seventh consciousness: too many desires; Although he is a layman, he does not dye human happiness, often reads three servings of pottery, volunteers to become a monk, keeps the Tao innocent, and is lofty and compassionate.

Eighth sense: life and death are blazing, and there is endless distress; Send a Mahayana heart, give everything, and be willing to take the place of all sentient beings, and suffer hardships, so that all sentient beings will be happy after all.

These eight things are that all buddhas and bodhisattvas are diligent in Tao, compassionate and wise, and take advantage of their bodies to achieve nirvana. Return to life and death, free all beings. The first eight things enlighten all things, make all beings suffer life and death, abstain from five desires, and cultivate a sacred heart. If you are a disciple of Buddha, meditate on these eight things in your heart, eliminate infinite sin, enter Bodhi, get the Tao quickly, end life and death forever, and live happily forever.
