How to show sincerity in Shurangama Sutra
Author: In forty-nine years, the teachings of the first generation of Buddha, either Mahayana or Hinayana, gradually changed, only making all beings realize their sincerity. "Hokkekyo" said: "All buddhas and gods only appear in the world because of a major event. If you want to make all beings, you will show your understanding of Buddhism and appear in the world. " There is another cloud: "The Buddhas have vowed, and I have practiced Buddhism and Taoism, so that all living beings can share this Tao." This way is the nature of Buddha's equality in giving birth to Buddha. Self-innocence, also known as the first Leng Yan, everyone is full and everyone is round. However, because all beings are blinded by ignorance without beginning or end, they are fascinated by the truth. Knowing is the heart, then the original sincerity cannot be revealed, and naturally there is no way to cultivate one's morality and practice. In the Great Nirvana Sutra Tathagata, it says, "Good people! We are the Tathagata who hides righteousness, and all living beings know that there is Buddha nature, which is my righteousness. Since then, it has been obscured by infinite troubles, and all beings cannot see it. " As the Shurangama Sutra says: "All living beings have never started to live and die together, because they don't know sincerity, they use delusion. This is not true, so there is rotation. " It can be seen that all beings don't know that there is Buddha nature, but they have no choice but to bury their unchanging sincerity in dirty hearts. Although they have nothing, they climb abroad all day, chasing delusions, being confused in their careers and suffering from various interests. The Buddha sympathized with the sufferings of all sentient beings, grasped the nine realms of sympathy, retrogression and drift, and said different ways to teach us to practice and appreciate our sincerity. So, how can we achieve our sincerity? In order to realize the truth, we must first get rid of false knowledge. So, how can we achieve our sincerity? In order to realize the truth, we must first get rid of false knowledge. In other words, the three discoveries in this book and the ten obvious ones are all about how to break the false and reveal the true. On this issue, briefly analyze the following points. First, the analysis of false heart false heart refers to the separation of false heart, that is, our consciousness climbs up and down, from joy to worry, from greed to anger. In daily life, this heart changes with the environment, for example, an ape climbs a branch and suddenly turns from one side to the other and rushes to the outside world. It is impossible for us to know everything truthfully, but to think and identify ourselves. Take right as wrong and wrong as right. Greed for prosperity, anger for adversity, this is mine, that is mine, I am the center. Subjectively, I think there is another independent me besides the other person. Objectively speaking, there is an objective thing that exists independently of the subject, besides knowing but not having it. I don't know what I can see. What I see is the shadow in my heart. Therefore, law enforcement leads to endless troubles and creates various industries, from industrial degradation to life and death. The theory of "learning with humility" mentioned in Mahayana Belief says: "The state of modesty is called the state of modesty; The noumenon covering all laws cannot be obtained because it has no self-nature, and it thinks it exists because of false fate, so the false realm is also called false law, false realm and false existence. The six dusts, such as color, sound, fragrance, taste, touch and law, which are expressed by illusory karma, are the troubles and persistence of ordinary people and are called fake dust. In addition, measuring things separately with false heart is called false calculation. " It can be seen that it is precisely because of this delusion that we have the illusion of subject and object, ability and righteousness. Is the root of life and death since the beginning of everything. But we don't know that this kind of consciousness distinguishes the heart from modesty, but regards this modesty as self, thus confusing truth with imitation and feeling the dust behind it. My back feels dusty. Deviated from the wonderful truth and blocked Bodhi nirvana. In order to show sincerity, we must get rid of falsehood, because sincerity is covered by falsehood. Like a mirror, it can reflect everything, but it can't show its original light because of dust. If you want to shine, you must first remove the dirt. Another example is that gold is in a mine. There is gold in the mine, but the mine is not gold. But in addition to seeking gold, it is necessary to eliminate mines in order to show a pure and pure golden body. In the Shurangama Sutra, there are three aspects that can dispel the illusion. (1) There is no place to break false knowledge. It is impossible to get a false heart from seven aspects of space. This is what most people call "seven points to accept the heart." Modesty is an instant birth and death, constantly changing, born in the dust, destroyed in the dust. No one can have a fixed place, and when it is destroyed, it is impossible to return to the place where it was born. All beings think that it is our eternal sincerity that can love and hate. We have all kinds of feelings, such as bitterness and joy, and cling to our hearts in seven places: inside, outside and at the root of our eyes. The following is a rest. 1. Hide your heart in your body. My mind is in my body, which is acknowledged by all my wives and sentient beings. All sentient beings are sincere in their flesh. When we come out casually, people say, "Where is the heart?" The world will answer "here" with its fingers and chest. Then, the heart has the use of gnosis, and everything should clearly know where the normal heart is. If the heart really lives in the body, then the internal organs should be clearly seen. Why can't we ordinary people see the internal organs, but we can see other methods? But it's not built in the body. 3. Hold your heart and dive into your eyes. If you hold on to this understanding heart, it lurks in the root of your eyes. If people wear glasses, although they cover their eyes, they can still see the outside world. The mind dives into the eyes, but the eyes do not prevent the mind from seeing things. The heart is like an eye, and the eyes are like a mirror. However, the eyes can see the mirror, why can't the heart see the eyes? If the mind can see the eyes, then the eyes, like what they see, should lose the ability to see and immediately lose their use. Can't see the right eye, the heart is not at the root of the eye. Therefore, it is wrong to pay attention to what you know. 4, the heart is bright and dark. This plan is still the same as the first one. For example, if you open your eyes and see the light, it's because you have an understanding. This is called seeing outside. Close your eyes, there are zang-fu organs living inside, so you see darkness, which is called endoscopy. Then, when you close your eyes and see the darkness, the darkness is right in front of you. How can you say you saw it? If the eyes have the function of looking back and can see the darkness inside the body, then they should also have the merit of looking back with their eyes open. Why not see its own face? It can be seen that it is impossible to see a dark name. If we can see our faces, then our hearts and eyes are in the void, and the void becomes ourselves? But vanity is ignorance and the body won't feel it. If the mind is conscious in the void, the body will not feel it, and the whole body will not feel it. As mentioned above, it is absolutely unreasonable to hold your heart in secret. 5. Use your heart. If we think that the climbing heart follows the place where it meets, the heart follows, the inner edge of the heart is inside, the outer edge is outside, and the edge is extremely hidden and uncertain. Then this heart is impersonal, how can it be in harmony with the outside world? If we say that this heart has a foundation, we can ask: "Is it a whole, a multi-body, a whole or a non-whole? If it is an organic whole, two hands touch one place, and four branches feel together, but this is not the case; If many bodies make many; The whole body is "one"; Not the whole body, when touching two places at the same time, one place is conscious, and the other place should be unconscious, and there is nothing to do today; Therefore, it is wrong to say that integration, multi-body, whole body and incompleteness are all wrong, and it is untenable to use it to win hearts. (2) breaking the fake and knowing the heart. After getting rid of the ubiquitous false knowledge, I understand that the false heart has no place to live, but I don't know what it really means. Therefore, the Buddha further explained that this illusory heart that can see and feel separation is not our true colors, but the delusion of the past. At the moment of change, the former mind destroys the afterlife, and the latter mind destroys the afterlife, and continues. However, foolish sentient beings regard this false heart as self-nature, and practice Buddhism and fruit according to this heart, just like boiling sand into beauty, even after dust robbery, it will never be achieved. Because false reasons must be false. All beings don't know, so it's true from the beginning to today, and it's disappointing to recognize thieves as sons. (3) Get rid of the illusion and know nothing. A heart that can speculate, perceive and do everything has no place, is insincere and has no body, such as empty flowers, empty moons and dreams. So is sincerity equal to modesty and impersonality? Otherwise, the Buddha said that all dharma is born, idealism is present, all cause and effect are dust in the world, and the mind is an adult. All phenomena of idealism, from nothingness to dirt, are salty and physical, while nothingness still has shapes. What's more, our pure and wonderful sincerity is the source of everything, but it has no body. The false heart rises and falls with the touch of color, sound and fragrance. For example, now someone is talking outside, and listening and listening have different functions. If no one speaks, there is no sound. After all, this knowing mind is lifeless, although it can destroy all knowledge and keep a deep and quiet state in the mind. Or the phenomenon of separation of consciousness, just a temporary latent shadow. If there is no wave flow, it looks quiet, but there is no flow, not no flow. To sum up, modesty is nowhere, unreal and lifeless. Like a shadow, like a bubble, you can't get it. For example, the Diamond Sutra said: "You can't get a heart in the past, you can't get a heart now, and you won't get a heart in the future. "San Ji's desire for the heart is unintentional, and the smell of the root-chaser is the realization of truth. If life is not in all realms, it will liberate wisdom. Blunt roots need to be proved to be true to understand. Second, show sincerity. The above has shattered the false heart. Now let's take a closer look at how this passage completely shows sincerity. From a false name to a real name, the spirit is the heart, which is called sincerity. That is, the real heart, or the principle of the nature of the heart. It is the highest principle of the universe and the noumenon of all things. In Buddhism, there are different names. Hua Yan Jing was established as a dharma circle, which was also taken into account. Hua Yan Jing was established as a dharma circle, which was also taken into account. The Diamond Sutra is Tathagata, without cause. Prajna sutra is called Nirvana, and all saints return to their hometown. The book "On Faith" is called truth, neither born nor dead. " Nirvana Sutra is called Buddha nature, so the three-body is ontology. The reason why this "saint" is called Tathagata Hiding also contains hidden reasons. Even countless names, such as awareness, awareness, dharma, universal reality and perfect reality, are well known as long as they are sincere. Without this sincerity, all the names are depressed. Sincerity and truth are the same, but ordinary people's cognition of things is false, and they have lost self-purification, so they are separated, so they can't be present. But if there is an underground spring, I don't know its ear. (a) to show the truth with false, such as hands with palms, palms with backs. Not one person has two hearts. True and false, although their characteristics, gender and functions are opposite, false press is really illusory. Therefore, our hearts are still one. However, due to the disparity of misunderstanding, there are two different functions. Without truth, of course, there is no fallacy. Without fallacy, ordinary people have no truth to show. In other words, the so-called truth is false, the truth is false, its body is unique, but it has no choice but to be fascinated for a long time. If you don't show it, you won't see it Therefore, the Tathagata is sincere only by looking at it in the eye, and ten times shows its truth: 1. It is obvious that the performance sees things and does not see things. 2. It is obvious that Zhan Ran is complete, rooted and dusty, motionless but unshakable; 3. Obviously, it does not change with the color body, and the visibility of the body is eternal; 4. Obviously, there is no gain or loss, no increase in enlightenment, and no decrease in confusion; 5, the obvious fate, don't hold all the laws, see the light, see the darkness; 6, obviously, the essence is not mixed, super-solitary; 7. Obviously, there are no obstacles, big and medium, small and medium; 8. It is obvious to be integrated with body, mind and everything; 9. Obviously, it does not belong to natural reasons, but exceeds the obsession with false feelings; 10, see clearly whether the essence of self is true or false, while one point of self is false and the name is true. This is ten times the obvious fact. However, seeing sex is a combination of life and death and non-life. Although the body is wonderful, it is always illusory, and all beings have no evil heart to refer to. All living beings can't think it is untrue and impure. If you think it is pure, it is no different from admitting that the mine is gold. If you don't think this is true, you will record the truth with mines. On earth, because of two kinds of fallacies, we can only confuse the false with the true, just like referring to the mine and saying gold. (2) When the truth is divided into three earthly worlds, the two kinds of inversions (different trades and the same points) see fallacies respectively, and the mystery persists, just like a mist shrouded in the middle. Like people on earth, there are red eyes and lights at night, but there is no round shadow, and the five colors overlap. Nowadays, all living beings have a mind, move wildly because of ignorance, become confused and jump, and turn to their original wisdom and light so that they can see. Because there are differences and opposites, people and I have right and wrong, Russia was born. Therefore, as the saying goes: eyes and work are bodhi, gazing at each other. All sentient beings have five illusions and five dust illusions, which originated from the illusion of seeing. If the illusion is removed, the body will be invisible. If you can both die, it's ruined to see each other. This is a transformation from fallacy to truth. "On Faith" said: "You can't forget all the legal reasons, but you don't feel your mind, but you have your thoughts. You have no self, and you have not left your self-awareness. You have turned the truth of the whole dharma world into a maze, and now all beings in the world are everywhere. " There is another cloud: "Looking at the past according to the ability, the realm is illusory. There is no realm if you can't see it. The Shurangama Sutra says: "There is vanity in delusion. If you want to be a land, your perception is all beings. "It can be proved that the two kinds of false opinions about the same point and another business are based on the two reports, because the true opinions have fallen into the fallacy of false opinions from the beginning. If all beings can realize it, it is illusory, and there is nothing to get, such as spending money to buy gas and being empty, and now they realize its true colors. Thirdly, it reveals Zhan Ran's sincere body and unchangeable sincere body, which is pure and immortal, and does not increase in the sacred position and does not decrease in every position. Not born without repair, nor destroyed without repair. As for today, if it does not move. Sex has all the advantages of wisdom. " "On Faith" said: "Sincerity leads to cause and effect, which runs through ancient times and modern times, and the theory of drama is absolutely out. "The Shurangama Sutra shows that this heart is not the six dharma circles, so it cannot be dyed, nor is it the four holy dharma circles, so it cannot be purified. Zhan Ran's body is not alone. The mixture of the three realms is just an illusion that we didn't realize before. Since the infinite robbery, even in all sports, all places have been used by our own hearts and are our own buddhas. This heart is Buddha. This heart is empty everywhere, and it is quiet. Although it can display all colors, it is not moved by colors. It's San Ji. It's everywhere. Many people are smart, generally speaking, this is the fifth law. Have sex again and again, and be a thousand virgins. Students of Bodhisattva III. All three generations of Buddhas have the same certificate. " Master Dharma's Theory of Blood said: "There is no other Buddha except this heart. Without this heart, there is nothing to find a bodhisattva. "All beings are bound by ignorance troubles and indulge in the sea of life and death. Helpless, I buried my heart in Wuyun Mountain and couldn't show it. Although I am really hiding, there is nothing to lose, such as the day under the cloud. " The Ten Classics says: "All beings have Buddha's nature in their bodies, just like sun gear, which is full of light and boundless, and only covered by five cloudy clouds, like a lamp in a bottle, which cannot shine. For example, the clouds in the world rise in all directions, and the world is dark. The sun is rotten, why is there no light? Light clouds are not bad, just covered by clouds; The same is true of the pure heart of all sentient beings. "A sincere body is unshakable and quiet. But it has the magical function of fate and can reveal all the laws of the universe. The Shurangama Sutra says: "Five Yin, Six Entering, Twelve Places, Eighteen Boundaries, etc. They are all Tathagata, hiding wonderful things, and they are as natural as nature. "However, the methods of five yin and six entering twelve places and eighteen realms are not excellent, and the two methods of color heart cover all the laws of the universe, but the two methods of color heart cannot be classified as sincerity. The most puzzling thing here is: if you are sincere, you will be clean. In that case, why can the laws of the universe be born? " According to "On Faith", if you don't keep yourself, the truth that pops up suddenly is called ignorance. Because of ignorant delusion and persistence, life and death change mountains and rivers, and everything is beautiful. You know here, it's true, it's fate. Such as gold, although made into rings, necklaces, earrings and other different phases, but the body of gold remains unchanged. Like water and waves, the sea is calm, but stirred by the wind (ignorance), the waves fluctuate rapidly, but the nature of water remains the same. It is clearly stated in the Shurangama Sutra that it does have the magical effect of fate. With the origin of dyeing, there are six dyeing methods; With the pure origin, the four saints purification method. All the laws of the ten dharma circles are based on this. There is really no way out of this heart. For example, Mani Baozhu is not blue, yellow, red and white, but can find various colors with fate. The so-called: if you really don't move, you will be infinitely poor. Therefore, in our daily life, whenever and wherever, we all use actions to run around, eat and wear clothes, all of which are sincere and wonderful. We just don't know. This sincerity is wide and biased towards the dharma world, and narrow is not allowed to be a needle. Those who reach this heart are all heads, and everything is displayed; People who are fascinated by this kind of heart are upside down and crazy. If we are not fascinated by daily use, it is naturally unimpeded. It's wonderful to stay still and stay away from everything; The wonderful use of fate should be all kinds. For example, a mirror, the mirror is a body, the exposed surface is used, and there is no difference in dyeing the net. Do not cling to beauty and ugliness, good and bad, the people who come are obvious to all, and the people who go are not limited. "The Shurangama Sutra says:" But everything is the world outside the world, that is, the Tathagata hides the wonderful heart, leaving is leaving, and yes is leaving. "Is to leave the void, that is, existence is empty. There are two photos in the void, but they are not empty, and there are two sides. As the saying goes, miracles do not hinder vacuum, and vacuum does not hinder miracles. Conclusion Shurangama Sutra is a typical classic that gives full play to the thought of truth. The sincerity expounded in Buddhist scriptures is experienced by all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Therefore, Buddhas want to make all living beings invent this, so they use infinite metaphors in various classics, or show various changes, and say different ways according to the roots of all living beings. Let all living beings learn, assuming that from learning, they will get rid of the confusion without beginning, that is, they will realize that "the Tathagata hides the wonderful truth as nature." Master Dharma said, "After thousands of arguments, it's just a clear head.". Although this kind of heart is vertical and poor in San Ji, it is spread all over the country. Because we are in a mystery today, life and death for no reason. If you understand your sincerity, reincarnation will rest in peace immediately. Therefore, we must realize this heart. Gu Deyun: "The truth of awakening is the Dharma of becoming a Buddha". Master Hanshan said: "I don't know Buddhism, I don't know the pain of the Tathagata to save the world;" "If you don't know the Shurangama Sutra, you won't know the right and wrong of seeing Jaken; If you don't know the truth, you don't know the key to cultivating your heart. " It can be seen that all family members have to read the Shurangama Sutra. Today we realize that this heart is buried in the troubles of ignorance and cannot be revealed. In order to show what we have, we need to irrigate it with the water of wisdom, cultivate it with the fertilizer of kindness, blow it with the wind of compassion, and cultivate it with six tools. In this way, nature makes our long-lost nature sprout again, blossom and bear fruit, and return to our pure and clear sexual consciousness. Bibliography 1.
