Yihua
Buddhism says that flowers are not flowers, but flowers. At the Foshan meeting of Sakyamuni, flowers were displayed to the public, and everyone was puzzled. Only when the venerable Ye Jia broke his face and smiled, did the Buddha say, "I have a just eye, a wonderful mind, a different reality and a subtle method. I told Ye Jia. " Put a cloak on it. Ye Jia is the founder of the Zen generation, and his mantle is faithful and handed down from generation to generation. When it reached the 28th generation of Buddhism, India's indigenous Buddhism declined gradually, making it difficult to spread. So he went to the motorcycle mantle and headed east. A reed crossing the river, facing the wall for nine years, finally came the Italian inheritor Hui Ke, personally taught the Tathagata method. Like an apricot out of the wall, it is cultivated by the fertile soil of Chinese culture and supported by green leaves.
Does the significance of Buddha offering flowers to the public at the Dharma Meeting stop here? Is its flower a flash in the pan? In the crowd, there are more than "1,250 people"?
Sow bodhi seeds with a smile, and flowers will attract flowers.
A flower in Lingshan is the origin, and Buddhism is moved to bring soil to plant.
"five leaves"
Bonuses must also be supported by newcomers such as Green Leaf and Dharma. Who's coming? Clothes are passed from one person to another. At that time, there was a Shen Guang master in Dongtu, who was knowledgeable and proficient in Hyunri. He admired Buddhism, made snow and broke his arm, and sacrificed his life to seek the dharma, which moved Buddhism. Buddhism was passed on to the Tathagata, whose name was "Hui Ke". Tang Dezong also gave posthumous title "Mao Zen Master". This is the first spread of Zen in the East.
After Buddhism was destroyed, Hui Ke walked all the way to the southernmost tip of Dabie Mountain, reopened Dojo and Zen Hall in Sikong Mountain and Lion Mountain, and handed the mantle to the monks. Later, monks sent letters, which spread tolerance and tolerance spread wisdom.
When Hong Ren was teaching clothes, he said Huineng said, "When the founder of Dharma first came to the East, people didn't believe him. Therefore, he passed this dress down, thinking that it would be passed down from generation to generation. Since the Enlightenment, the principle of heart-to-heart communication has become self-evident. Since ancient times, the Buddha only passed on the noumenon, and the teacher concealed his original heart. Clothes are a dispute, stop it. " Tathagata's mantle has not been passed down yet.
Dongtu Wuzi, from Hui Ke to Huineng, has two characters of "Hui", which are taken care of from beginning to end, with complete wisdom and lush foliage. "Hui Ke" is the name given by Buddhism; Huineng also means that two different monks "protect their names".
"Results"
Buddha said that there are more than 300 meetings in the world, and there must be classics. Lingshan Buddhism will present flowers to the public. It is a miracle that there is no experience in the world. Thousands of years later, Master Huineng opened the altar in Baolin Temple and said, "Paper money is very popular, and it is called Magic Tanjing." The words of the ancestors are called classics, and there are no two people in ancient times, and there is no wonder in the world; There is also an anecdote: "In the first year of Tian Liang Prison, Sanzang, a sage medicine, set sail from Zhu Xi and planted a bodhi tree next to this altar, which indicates that there will be a bodhisattva performing under this tree in recent 170 years, which is very famous and really spreads the mage who seals the Buddha's heart." In fact, it is not surprising that Master Huineng came back with a wish on orders from Hui Zun. It is precisely for the great cause that Buddha Sakyamuni did not hand down classics at Lingshan Dharma Conference, to continue the unfinished business of Tathagata, and to teach others another family tradition. If you want to support the fertile soil of China, you will open a five-leaf method.
Why didn't the Buddha say anything at that time? Because Zen Put Lolerk's "true teaching and hiding, wonderful mind" is limited by the obstacles of the language environment, social ignorance and human ignorance at that time, which can't be expressed in words, so we have to teach others, communicate with our hearts, and stop writing for the time being.
Why does Huineng talk about the scriptures? The method of Zen has been passed down for 33 generations, and it has experienced thousands of years of vicissitudes, especially the cultivation of fertile soil of China culture. After five leaves, Zen thought gradually matured and became a system. It is also "built for your roots, and the decision is unquestionable."
When the Buddha saw that the stars were enlightened, he said, "All living beings have the wisdom and virtue of the Tathagata, but they can't prove it because of their obsession. If they leave their delusions, they will have no teacher's wisdom and natural wisdom, and everything will appear. " This is the fundamental truth of Buddha's enlightenment, and it is also the Buddha's "true eyes are hidden, and the mind is wonderful."
The altar sutra begins with a clear meaning: "Bodhi is self-nature and pure, but with this heart, it will become a Buddha." In fact, the whole sutra is aimed at people's hearts, which is the only way to achieve the goal of becoming a Buddha, and it is also unconventional with the heart as the Dojo.
Tanjing is the true blood of Buddha and the continuation of Lingshan Dharma Association. As the cloud in the altar sutra says:
"There are all kinds of hearts, and all the rain is lovely. I am in love with flowers, and the bodhi fruit is self-sufficient. "
"naturally"
Zen originated from nature and returned to nature. There was no such thing as Zen. At that time, Sakyamuni received the milk moose of two cows on the Nile, and felt that "eating and drinking today will swell." After taking a shower and washing clothes, I feel cool and radiant. So he came to a tall and lush bodhi tree, sat cross-legged and meditated. That night, the sky was clear and calm, and he sat silently on the throne of King Kong, showing all kinds of meditation realms, showing the infinite world of all things in ten directions, and understanding the cause and effect of the three realms. In the early morning of the next day, the stars were shining, and he suddenly realized that he had achieved the Supreme Way and became a fully awakened Buddha. The wisdom of the Buddha comes from nature, which contains endless Zen machines, Zen principles and wonderful truths of Zen.
From Ye Jia to Huineng, there are 33 generations of single biography, which is first confined to meditation and meditation, and handed down from generation to generation by a Shurangama Sutra. Huineng, on the other hand, mainly focuses on the Diamond Sutra, and advocates that the mind is the Dojo and the world is the door. The master, on the other hand, was unconventional and created a Zen style. After that, the "five cases and seven cases" in previous dynasties were solved; Curse ancestors, spleen and universe; Take the lead in drinking, be fierce in front of the machine; There are also Zhaozhou tea and Yunmen cake; Lift, stare, and point vertically; And Zen poetry, Zen language, Zen painting, etc. , colorful and fascinating.
When recording the main characteristics of the five sects, Master Mingyun said: "The five sects are slightly different in their styles of convenience and random access, but in the final analysis, they are all in the same strain and there is no difference." He also quoted a poem by an old man named Yuan Ying, telling the Zen meaning under Cao Men, saying, "It's like thunder, and it's hard to stop drinking before I can barely open the door and meet the original people." Master Mingyun said when talking about the quotations from past court cases: "We can take them without saying anything, but we should know the implication. The so-called' spring is not allowed, and the fragrance leaks from the branches; The moonlight is bright, and the waves are printed on the bottom of the pool. Every move, every word, a flash of eyebrows, a fist clenched in a vertical arm, wherever he went, all the local scenery was revealed. "
When the monk in Zhaozhou answered "ancestors came from the west", he casually said: "cypress trees in front of the court." This does not clearly tell people where the founder Xi Yili came from and where he is going. Do you know the cypress tree in front of the court? Can you realize that it is in harmony with nature? Then, you can not only recognize the purpose of western ancestors, but also recognize Buddha flowers to show public interests.
In today's prosperous times, Zen is prevalent. Yun Geng, Taiwan Province first spread the happy life of "Anhsiangchan"; Master Jinghui of the mainland advocates "Zen of life" to benefit the group. All roads lead to the same goal, fork hand to sing. Its purpose is "one flower leaves five leaves, and the result is natural".
Mr. Yun Geng said: "Zen is the original state of the heart, and Zen is a universal and eternal stage of life." "Anhsiangchan has no restrictions. How did you spend yesterday, and how did you spend today? How to live today, tomorrow will be like this, you don't need to change the outside, you just need to correct the inside, as long as you are self-respecting, self-exploring, self-understanding, self-affirming, self-purifying, self-improving and self-completing. " Anhsiangchan, as long as a law student abides by one commandment, that is, "Never do what others are afraid of knowing, and never think about what you can't do."
Professor Yu Lie of Peking University said: "Since Anhsiangchan is the life of Zen, he should be lively, not lifeless and taciturn. Therefore, a person who learns from An Xiangchan should be a person who has joined the WTO and joined the society. "
Master Jinghui once said when expounding the "life Zen": "The so-called life Zen is to integrate the spirit and wisdom of Zen into life, achieve transcendence of Zen in life, and reflect the artistic conception, spirit and charm of Zen." He also said: "The purpose of advocating Zen in life is to integrate Buddhist culture and China culture, to produce the Zen spirit with China cultural characteristics, to restore its agility and vividness, and to use Zen methods in the real life of the world to relieve all kinds of puzzles, troubles and psychological obstacles existing in modern people's lives. Make our spiritual life richer, our material life more elegant, our moral life more complete, our emotional life more pure, our interpersonal relationship more harmonious, and our social life more peaceful, thus making us tend to live a wise life and a complete life. " Said: "from the natural phenomenon, everywhere the green hills are Zen, and the vast land is Zen;" The vast Yangtze River is Zen, and the flowing water is Zen; Bamboo is Zen, and yellow flowers are Zen; The stars are Zen and the moon is Zen; The scorching sun is Zen, and the spring breeze is Zen in Xu Lai; Snow is Zen, and the drizzle is silent. In social life, trust is Zen, balance is Zen, and moderation is Zen. From the psychological state, peace is Zen, wisdom is Zen, no truth is Zen, and no fallacy is Zen. As a person, a kind smile is Zen, enthusiastic help is Zen, selfless dedication is Zen, honest labor is Zen, correct enterprising is Zen, and appropriate pursuit is Zen. In terms of aesthetic consciousness, emptiness is Zen, implication is Zen, elegance is Zen, upward is Zen, goodness is Zen, and transcendence is Zen. ……"
Life Zen does not exist today, and there is no one who does not meditate and realize Zen in life. Sakyamuni Buddha gained strength by eating chyle and refreshed himself by bathing and washing clothes; Look at the stars to realize the Tao, and the golden flowers to preach the Dharma; Every dharma meeting begins with eating and washing feet. Because of eating, I found Ananda begging in the city and met a modern woman on the way. When Master Hui Ke preached Buddhism to monks and ladies, he didn't stick to "looking from the wall" or "meditating", or walked into restaurants, or passed by butcher shops, or talked in the street, or served with his companions. "Hide your light and change your appearance", calmly conform to the custom and adjust yourself. The founder of Huineng lived with hunters for 16 years and often ate meat and vegetables. "All sentient beings are pure land, and cohabitation stops at compiling people; The world is a door, mixed with agriculture. " Master Baizhang advocated that "one day you don't work and one day you don't eat." The active lawyer asked Master Huihai, "Do monks still study hard?" The teacher said, "study hard." Say, "How to study hard?" The teacher said, "Come to eat when you are hungry, and sleep when you are sleepy."
Now the society is progressing, the science is developed and the economy is prosperous. The hearts of all beings are addicted, suspended and looking for in this money society. The content of life Zen is different, the form of existence is more common, and the function of purifying people's hearts is easier to play. The development of human science and the improvement of life will certainly bring about the progress of productive forces, and the improvement of people's cultural quality will definitely change the bad habits of ignorance, ignorance of science and hygiene. Society needs progress, human beings need sublimation, and material is the foundation. Spiritual life and material life, the balance is relative, the imbalance is absolute, in the realm of Zen, the two are the same and eternal. As Master Jinghui said: "The Zen of life we are talking about, as far as life itself is concerned, should be from a lost life to an awakened life. This process is a Zen of life, which is the first step; The second step is from the awakening of life to the transcendence of life. "
Dharma said that "nature" is the Zen of life.
"Nature" comes true and wisdom realizes itself.
"Cheng"
"When a flower blooms with five leaves, the result will be natural". This last word "success", a thousand words, thousands of years, ten thousand years, hundreds of millions of years, endless.
Literally, "success" means formation, completion, yes, sufficiency and stereotype. But none of these can express and explain the word "cheng" said by Bodhidharma.
Tathagata flowers, ancestors came to the west, for what? In order to benefit all sentient beings, to awaken all sentient beings and to destroy all sentient beings. The winner wakes up. Achievement is achievement, and achievement is perfection. All sentient beings wake up and all sentient beings are complete. Buddhism and sentient beings are in the four major changes of "success, residence, evil and emptiness", and there is a process of formation. However, the winner's truth and perfect wisdom are "all owned" and "originally pure" by all living beings. "Success" means returning to nature, and everything is revealed, not inventing or creating. Neither birth nor extinction, neither dirty nor clean, neither increase nor decrease.
From 65438 to 0994, during the 10th World Chorus Festival, the Institute of Buddhist Culture and the Anhsiangchan Choir of Taiwan Province Province held a party. At the meeting, I made such a metaphor: the progress of human beings from primitive society to today is from individual enlightenment to group enlightenment, and then to the progress of the whole society. For example, people in primitive society are shameless and mixed; Later, a family was established, monogamy appeared, and ethical thoughts were educated. From raw food to cooked food; From nudity to clothing world; As we all know, electrical appliances are popular in the whole society; For example, "multiplication formula", invented by saints, known to all women and children, and so on, is a process from mystery to enlightenment.
Now there are many harmonious and educated families, many civilized units and civilized communities, which are the epitome and embryonic form of group consciousness and social consciousness.
"In today's commodity world, people are addicted or suspended. Where is the consciousness?" Some people will say.
According to Buddhism, the world is the unity of all things, without scale and purity. Commodities are neither commodities nor people's hearts. People pursue enjoyment, but also want peace, stability, tranquility and eternity more and more. These subjective wishes are a kind of consciousness, and the social sum of this consciousness is increasing day by day. When it reaches a certain limit, the whole society will realize it. The ethical standards advocated today have become people's living habits at that time, and it is natural to get used to them.
"Can people's roots and qualities be so consistent?" Root and quality are the sum of experience, morality and wisdom, which are not inherited from parents, but accumulated from generation to generation. When our generation was born, we didn't even know the names of colors, refrigerators, computers and the Internet. Now children can use switches, remote controls and mice when they are just sensible. Today, every family's children have to carry their schoolbags to school. In the near future, children can be educated at home. The magic altar sutra says, "This method is the best. It is for the wise and for the people at the root. " Look at the distribution ratio of Buddhist believers today: there are more big cities than small cities, more small cities than county towns, and more county towns than rural areas. Moreover, the level of knowledge is different: in rural areas, there are many superstitious delusions that old women pray for blessing and eliminate disasters; In the city, most of them go deep into the scriptures, understand the teachings and gain wisdom. At the cultural level, there are also many people who are outside the Buddha and inside the Buddha. A famous person in sports said in a letter to me: "I really lack understanding of Buddhism." But his ideological style, moral quality and spiritual realm have far surpassed many Buddhists. When young people surpass him, he "generously welcomes them to overcome and surpass themselves"; When he attended the staggering feast in Hong Kong, he said to himself, "It is difficult to be rich, but it is difficult to be poor." ; When he learned the diagnosis result of his cancer, he was not surprised by the danger, but thought of how to finish his last fight in life. As a result, he succeeded and surpassed himself. Once these rooted people smell Buddhism, they will have an epiphany and realize it thoroughly.
"When will that be?" In the eyes of enlightened people, lifeless people are all the same. To live a hundred years is a lifetime, and to live only one day is a lifetime. The time difference between this day and a year is like a computer counting, from one hundred million to one hundred million in the blink of an eye. People in prison will spend a few years; People who live in spiritual emptiness don't know what year this dusk is; People who live in responsibilities and obligations forget to eat and sleep, and seize the day; People who understand that life and death are important events are even more precious, such as saving their heads, always worrying about the difference between one thought and another, falling into hell, making a temporary mistake and losing their reputation. In the endless time and space with no beginning, no end, no going and no coming, people have different realms and different lengths of time. Two thousand five hundred years ago, the Buddha was awakened by a man. In order to make all living beings realize, flowers are displayed to the public and passed down from generation to generation. Thousands of years later, 33 people realized. It has been thousands of years since Huineng, and it is already a "sacred and extraordinary person who is stained with dew, not counting its number; Knowing the Buddha's heart, understanding corresponds to great knowledge, and the name is bright. "Is it'1250 people'? But hundreds of millions of people, hundreds of millions of people ... the first 500 years are human enlightenment, the last 500 years are group enlightenment, and then the last 5,000 years, 50,000 years and 500 million years, all beings are enlightened.
"The last law has arrived, how can we talk about enlightenment?" Don't! When people say the last law, it is not the last law, but the last law. Buddhism is lost because of the fascination of all beings, and "yes words" will be "impossible" because of "all beings are extinct and no one is extinct" Is it lucky or sad? Happy, sad? Cheer, panic? The "last law" is the evidence shared by all living beings!
"Keep pace with the times!" A great word,/kloc-a common word for 0/300 million people. Everything is guided by economic construction, economic construction and development. Isn't this a sign of full consciousness? "Keeping pace with the times" is the general slogan of the whole society and the general direction, trend and pace of the development of the whole society.
"keep pace with the times"! A billion people, a billion Zen.
