Goode said: "One thought transcends the three realms, and one thought enters samsara. 」?
"Three realms" refer to three kinds of illusory beings flowing in the process of life and death, which are divided according to their realms, namely, the realm of desire, the realm of color and the realm of achromatic. There are 28 days in the three realms, which is called "28 days in the three realms". Although the results of the three realms have their own advantages and disadvantages, they are all mysterious and difficult to get rid of the pain of life and death, so they are spurned by saints. ?
Hokkekyo's The Analects of Confucius said: "The three realms are uneasy, like a fire house, full of suffering and terrible. 」
"Cheng Hua Yu Pin" said: "You can be imprisoned in the three realms and inspire all sentient beings. It means to persuade all beings in the three realms not to be peaceful in the three realms, but to seek liberation diligently. Because the three realms are as boundless as the sea, they are also called the bitter realm and the bitter sea.
It is often said that "there is no limit to suffering, and turning back is the shore", that is, persuading people to go out of the three realms and struggling to get rid of nirvana. ?
Second, the third world?
The three realms refer to the desire realm, the color realm and the achromatic realm where all beings live. ?
First, desire?
Desire refers to the world where sentient beings live with lust, lust, lust and lust. From six desires to heaven, including four continents on earth, Asura, down to animals, hungry ghosts, hell and so on. Because this world is mixed with men and women, it is called the world of desire. ?
Second, the color world?
The color world refers to a world where people live far from lust and lust, but there are still pure colors and other sentient beings. This world is above the realm of desire, and there is no desire to dye, no female shape, and all beings are incarnate; The palace in the color world is tall, transformed from color, and everything is wonderful and fine. Because the world is still in color, it is called the color world. ?
Third, the achromatic world?
Achromatic world refers to a world where all beings have only four hearts: receiving, thinking, acting and knowing without material life. This world has no material things, no body, no palace, no land, only the soul, living in deep meditation, so it is called achromatic world. ?
Thirty-eight days
Twenty-eight days refers to the six desire days in the color world, four Zen days in the color world and four colorless days without color world. ?
One, six desire for heaven?
The desire for six days is divided into two parts: living in heaven and living in heaven. ?
Earth inhabits heaven: including the four heavenly kings and the beneficial heaven. ?
(1) Four Heavenly Kings: In the east is the kingdom of heaven, who lives in the golden hall of Xumi Mountain. The heavenly kings who lean on their heads are in charge of Manna (sweet god or happy god) and Fudanna (fever ghost). The west, with a broad vision, I live in Sumi Mountain Silver. I am under the command of King Bocha, ghosts and gods, dragons, etc. In the south, it's growing day, and living in Liuli, Xumi Mountain, Piliule Fork King is in charge of two parts: Kupan Tea (a nuisance ghost) and pulido (a hungry ghost). In the north, I heard more about Heaven, and lived in the Crystal Temple of Xumishan, which was led by Pishamen Tianwang and Luo Cha. The ministries of the Four Heavenly Kings are collectively called Eight Tianlong. ?
(2) Stand out from the sky: also known as thirty-three days. In Buddhist cosmology, this day is located at the top of Mount Sumi, the second day of desire, with a good city in the middle, and there are eight days of God in each direction, totaling thirty-three days. According to the Book of Buddhist Righteousness (Volume 25), they are: living in a good Dharma Hall, living in a peak, living at the top of a mountain, living in a city, living in private parts, living in a house, living in a happy garden, having a bright tomorrow, having many trees and gardens, living in a dangerous shore, living in Manizang and living in a revolving place. ?
The reason why the earth lives in heaven is because she lives in Xumi Mountain, and the fornication of the gods is no different from that of the world. ?
2. Living in the sky: including flying in the sky at night, using the sky to turn it into a happy day and a free day. ?
(1) Night skyscraper: Night rubbing refers to hours. On this day, I learned to control my desires and treat hugging each other as a lewd thing. ?
(2) Seize the time: Seize the time is to be satisfied, stop knowing what you want, and treat holding hands as a lewd thing. ?
(3) Become a happy person: It is a lewd thing to be willing to change and want to be meager and laugh at each other. ?
(4) He became free in the sky: he changed freely in the realm of five desires, and his desires gradually disappeared, so he regarded the phase as a lewd thing. ?
Two, four Zen for eighteen days?
The four Zen days in the color world are divided into four grades according to the depth of meditation, totaling 18 days. ?
1. Three days of first meditation: refers to Brahma, Brahma and Brahma. After Yi Chan, I stopped eating human fireworks, so I lost the knowledge of nose and tongue, but I still have the ability to enjoy the pleasure and pleasure generated by the four senses of eyes, ears, body and heart, and the ability to discover thoughts. ?
2. Two Zen days: refers to days with little light, boundless light and light voice. There is only consciousness above the second Zen, and there is no sense of eyes, ears and body, and there is no idea of seeking service. Therefore, only happiness and giving up correspond to consciousness. ?
3. Three Zen and three days: refers to less sunny days, boundless sunny days and sunny days. There are only conscious activities in Zen for three days, which correspond to enjoyment and abandonment. ?
4. Four Zen and Nine Days: refers to the blessed day, blessed day, fruit-wide day, no-mind day, no-worry day, no-heat day, good-looking day, good-looking day and lewd day. There are only conscious activities corresponding to giving up and receiving in the four Zen days. ?
Three or four days colorless?
All beings in the achromatic world have different degrees of karma according to the corresponding concentration, although they have no matter, so they are also divided into four levels. ?
1. Infinite sky: refers to being tired of being bound by body and body, uncomfortable, and eager for infinity. Add a line in the boundless sky as a cause to determine and get a result. ?
2. knowledge is boundless: it refers to the result of being disgusted with the boundless sky and being attracted by boundless knowledge. In other words, the mind has cleared up the knowledge of eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind. There is no limit to knowledge, the first thought is infinite, and the second hair is colorless, which means that knowledge is infinite. ?
3. No fixed place to live: it means that you are tired of knowing the boundless place, giving up everything and staying still. When you add achievements, not only the emptiness of your mind is gone, but also you can see the boundless mind, so you have no shelter. ?
4. No thinking is no thinking: the meditation of this day is extremely quiet and wonderful, without any rough thinking, so it is called no thinking; There is still deliberation on this day, so it is called no thinking. This day is located at the top of three worlds and nine places, so it is also called heaven. ?
The extraordinary victory of quadruple sky?
In the ten dharma circles, heaven is beside people, and both of them are places where bitterness and joy meet, and each has its own unique advantages. According to the classics, Heaven and Man have the following advantages:
First, longevity?
Desire for six days, the life span of four kings is 500 years old, which is about equal to 9 million long live the earth; The life span of a towering sky is 1000 years old, which is about 306 million years old on the earth. Skyscrapers at night have a history of 2000 years, about1440 million years. The pocket rate is 4000 years old, about 5.76 billion years old. Lotte is 8,000 years old, and the world is about 23 billion years old; He was born at the age of 16000, which is about 921.600 million years old on the earth. ?
In the color world, Brahma half robbed in the early Zen, Brahma half robbed, Brahma half robbed; On the second Zen day, light robbed two, infinite light robbed four, and light robbed eight; Three Zen days, clear sky robbed sixteen, clear sky robbed thirty-two, clear sky robbed sixty-four; Four Zen days, Fu Ri robbery 125 robbery, Love Ri robbery 250 robbery, Guangguo Ri robbery, No-remembrance Ri robbery 500 robbery, Hot Ri robbery 2000 robbery, See Ri robbery 4000 robbery, Now Ri robbery 8000 robbery, Color Ri robbery 16000 robbery. ?
There are 20,000 robberies in the sky without color, 40,000 robberies in the sky without knowledge and 60,000 robberies in the sky without everything. If you have to deal with 80 thousand robberies, it is about 80 thousand times that of the world. This can be seen from the length of life. ?
Second, tall?
The height of the four heavenly kings is half a decade (about ten miles in the world); Li Chang for ten days (about twenty miles); At night, skyscrapers last for two days (about forty miles); The length of the pocket is four to ten days (about eighty miles); Hua Letian is eight days long (160 Li); He changed from 16 days to 10 days (320 miles); Color from ten-day sixteen thousand days (twenty-two Wan Li). The average distance from the earth to the moon is only more than 22 Wan Li. People in the sky can pick up the moon without raising their hands. The vastness of the void in the universe and the height of the body of heaven and man are beyond imagination. ?
Third, it's nice to have food and clothing, okay?
The taller a fairy is, the lighter her clothes are. If you want to be on earth, the clothes of the four kings are twenty miles long and weigh half a second; The clothes in the sky are forty miles long and weigh six baht (one or two have forty-eight baht); At night, skyscrapers are 80 miles long and weigh three baht; The pocket price is 160 Li Long, weighing one and a half baht; China Lotte One is 320 Li Long, which weighs one baht. His clothes are 640 Li Long and weigh half a baht. ?
It makes no difference whether Brahma and Heaven wear clothes or not. With their bodies, they naturally have bright clothes to wear. ?
Secondly, when it comes to diet, all sentient beings in the world want to eat natural food, pure food, smooth clothes and feel bathed; All beings in the color world feed on dharma joy and Zen yue; Emotions in the colorless world feed on consciousness. ?
Fourth, the idea of music?
All sentient beings from the color world and even the achromatic world are no longer satisfied with the chaotic and turbulent desires of the world, but can live in the quiet and faint peace of deep meditation. ?
Although heaven is wonderful, once heaven and man enjoy their blessings, they will inevitably fall into the six divisions in the wheel of karma and suffer. ?
In the vast universe, the thoughts and consciousness of ordinary people include not only the world on which this life depends, but also heaven and hell. Because in the minds of ordinary people, people think that after death, they either go to heaven or go to hell. Heaven and hell are between human nature, one represents pleasure and the other represents suffering. This is the average person's understanding of heaven and hell. ?
But as far as Buddhism is concerned, people don't necessarily go to heaven or hell after death. Heaven and hell are just two of the top ten dharma circles. There are conditions for going to heaven, and karma for going to hell. Each has its own karma and cannot be confused. ?
Buddhism believes that there are three realms and twenty-eight days in heaven, as mentioned above.
According to Ming Jing, Qi Shi Jing, Shi Li A Da Mo Lun and other classics, the fate of heaven and man is divided.
Summarized as follows:?
Image of heaven and man: bright body, white teeth, wreath cover, natural and clean. ?
Life span of heaven and man: from five million long live to eighty-four thousand robbery. ?
Heaven and man's diet: Heaven and man in the world of desire are different according to their grades, likes and dislikes, and heaven and man in the world of color feed on Zen and music. ?
There are elephants, horses, peacocks, dragons, birds and so on. ?
The language of heaven and man: all are sacred words. ?
The relationship between heaven and man: the four heavenly kings have 91 sons, and there are 1000 sons in the sky for profit. At night, there are men and women in skyscrapers, so it is impossible to say the number. ?
Wedding between heaven and man: there are men and women in the world of desire and marriage;
Clothes of Heaven and Man: Wear heavenly clothes, full of light and color. ?
Invitation for Heaven and Man to broadcast: observe the good and evil on earth, and broadcast the emperor's interpretation and pursuit of heaven. ?
Heaven and man, rich and poor: I want to report the difference between thickness; Skyscrapers at night, even the sky in the color world, are equal to the rich and the poor. ?
Heaven manifests itself: desire to give, abstain, settle and so on. Your body is always bright and you don't need sunshine; In the color world, Zen is separated from desire, the body is wonderful and bright, and it wins the sun and the moon, all because of the purity of the heart.
Heaven and man die: if the sky dies, it will not be sent, burned, abandoned or ignored, and its body will be like a flame, with nothing left, and it will turn into death. ?
To live in the sky, you should practice giving, keeping precepts and meditation. ?
1. almsgiving: almsgiving is the almsgiving to those who have compassion and Hui Shi's welfare. It can be divided into financial almsgiving, legal almsgiving and fearless almsgiving. Giving can not only get all beings, but also give up the fundamental troubles of greed, especially attracting blessings. This is self-serving and altruistic practice. ?
2. Keep precepts: Keeping precepts can ascend to heaven. Live for four days without killing; If you don't kill or steal the ring, you will be born for thirty-three days; Hold the precepts of not killing, stealing and lewdness, and make skyscrapers at night; Make a living by not killing, stealing, adultery and swearing; Persist in not killing, stealing, adultery, nonsense, rigorous, biochemical and cheerful. ?
3. Meditation: Meditation is one of the main ways to ascend to heaven, because giving precepts is to cultivate wealth. If there is fortune, we must further cultivate wisdom. If you want to gain wisdom, you must enter deep meditation and become wise from meditation. Especially in the celestial world above the color world, you must have meditation to practice. ?
In addition, the heaven is still within the three realms, and it is still difficult to escape the disaster of success, residence, bad and empty. When worlds collide, there will be three kinds of suffering, burning the first Yi Chan, flooding the second Zen, and the wind hitting the third Zen. Just like the end of the world, even a colorless world can't escape the brittle and impermanent phenomenon. Therefore, it is true that there will be blessings in life, but heaven is not the best or the ultimate.
Therefore, people who study Buddhism should not take the survival of heaven as their ultimate goal.
The so-called "three realms are like a fire house", how to get out of the three realms, how to get rid of life and death, and get nirvana, this is the ultimate goal we should pursue.
