Ok, let's look at the next paragraph, D 2: One reading is enough. This paragraph focuses on the dying part. That is to say, a dying person, how he died, why he died, to talk about this matter. Ask and answer. Let's look at it first: "How was the West born when it came to this 10 trillion Buddha land?" Said: the pure land is so far away from us, why are dying people still alive? What was his mentality in his previous life? Ok, let's read it first. Please cross your hands:
What will happen when the west comes to this 10 trillion land? Ten trillion tons of land, not out of my previous mind, my mind has no reason, I rely on the Buddha's heartfelt strength to lead me. Why is it difficult to be born? If you look at dozens of pavilions with mountains and rivers in the mirror, there are countless floors and no distance. You can see that they are all out of order. From the west, there are more than 10 trillion Buddhist lands, which are called bliss in the world, and it really is; Its soil has Buddha, but there is no Amitabha, and it is said that it is also the case now; On his deathbed, Amitabha and other saints appeared in front of him. When you die, your heart will not turn back, and you will get the land of Amitabha. When you know: every word is three places, the big round mirror is also the spirit of wisdom.
Well, the answer to this question and this place are very important. When you die, as long as you do this, you will definitely die. He talked about theory first, and then talked about practical methods in the second paragraph.
He said: how can we die at such a long distance? He said: 10 trillion Buddha land, in theory, actually didn't leave my mind before, because our mind has spread all over the dharma world; The second depends on the acceptance of Buddha. So this place, in theory, we relied on two forces in our previous lives: first, self-merit; Second, the acceptance of Amitabha's original wish. There are two kinds: one is mental strength, and the other is Buddha strength. This Buddha power is also equal to mana, because when you read Buddha, you create a voice with the name of Buddha, and the Buddha is in the voice. Pure land Sect, Buddha power equals mana.
For example, if you look at dozens of landscape pavilions in the mirror, this mirror is our thoughts, and the landscape pavilion is like pure land. Although it has many levels, it is clear, but it is not far and near, it appears at the same time and there is no order. This place shows that when a dying person dies, he must adjust his mind like a mirror. This is very important! Ladies and gentlemen, do you know what the characteristics of mirrors are? Guess what's right, right, "if you come, you won't leave", simple and clear, no shelter! Look: your father looks in the mirror, then your mother looks in the mirror, and then you look in the mirror. It appears with fate, but there is no place to live at all. This is very important! As long as you think, this mirror is not a mirror. The dying man should take his heart as a mirror! Of course, that's how you usually train. In other words, when you see something, don't be "kind" at once, don't do that, put on the brakes-don't move! This is an illusion of fate. Because you usually like to move, you will definitely move when you die.
In fact, the more responsible a person is, the harder it is to live, because he has too many things to manage, and then he will give himself a reason: hey! This matter should be in my charge, but it should be in your charge. Nothing is wrong, but your heart can't live. You must be able to live! You have the final say, regardless, really, persistent people can hardly live!
Therefore, if you look at all the people who have studied Puritanism, you will notice that in their later years, they must "take care of everything", with almost no exception, even Master Yi. When I saw that Master Yi Shu was interested in everything, I was scared! Master Hu Yi ran to Lingfeng Mountain at the age of 55 and never came down. He died two years later. In his later years, Master Yin Guang was closed all the way, almost without exception. Of course everyone else is closed, and I have nothing to say. When I saw Master Hu Yi approaching, I really broke out in a cold sweat. Even his old man's house has to do this-die for everything, because your idea will end.
So, you see what's going on in the end: from the west, there is a world called Elysium on top of 10 trillion Buddha land, and so on. This sentence is perfect! When you are dying, you must empty your body and mind so that the Elysium can exist. At the end of your life, you must empty your heart, the positive report of Amitabha-"There is a Buddha in its soil, so it is said today", so that Amitabha can be present; "When a person dies, saints such as Amitabha appear in front of him. When I was dying, my heart did not turn back, that is, I died in the paradise of Amitabha, and so on. " If you want to die, you must empty your mind and body, otherwise Amitabha can't get in. Empty is not without delusion, no, as long as it is not alive, it is empty.
On your deathbed, you just have to move an idea, no matter what your reason is, no matter! You said: I must save him. Anyway, as long as you move an idea, you will be reincarnated in life and death. As long as you move an idea-"An idea is not fully reflected, and an idea is covered by dark clouds." There is no reason to die, you will fail anyway, so this place is very important!
"When you know every word, it's samadhi in the sea, and it's also the spirit of wisdom in the great round mirror", so what Master Hu Yi means is: We must find ways to learn from the sea and the mirror, their living but not living kung fu. Of course, some people ask: then why not live? Is to have prajnaparamita wisdom before, otherwise how can't you live? Therefore, we should know that heretics also talk about inductive Taoism, and pure land Sect also talks about inductive Taoism, which is different. The external induction path is to climb outward, because he meets the ghost induction path, and he climbs outward just right, and the two magnetic fields are almost the same; But if you are sympathetic to the Buddha, it is wrong for you to climb. Because you climb, it is the power of reincarnation-you start reincarnation, Amitabha nirvana, you are reincarnation. These two hearts don't correspond. How can you feel the Tao?
Be sure to accept your heart when you die. You must be mindful of the truth, then follow your wishes and mention the Buddha's name before you can die. As can be seen from this passage. So when you see a person dying, just look around: Is the Buddha coming? You probably wouldn't have died, because you didn't even accept your own heart. The mirror is not like this, the mirror is fate, you must accept your heart! So we know from this passage: in fact, the key to life is not distance. Don't worry. This is not a problem. It's no use thinking about it. The key is whether you emptied it or not. All you have to do is empty, and the rest will be left to Amitabha.
We pure land people only need to do three things when we die. First, empty your body and mind and let your life return to zero. Don't think about the past. Although you have many life experiences and left many traces of good and evil, it will definitely take effect at the end of your life, because it knows us too well and will not let us go, but you only need to do one thing: just don't follow the trend. As long as you don't follow the trend, the past karma won't interfere with you. This is the first thing-empty your body and mind; Second, obey Amitabha's original wish-make up your mind to accept Amitabha's rescue, and I will go with you; Third, the Buddha's name is absolutely successful! Judging from this passage, it is absolutely successful! You must try to cut off the past first. There is no solution in life. Only by letting go can we solve it. You don't want to untie this spider web. You can't solve it. You should leave first, go to the pure land, go back to your mother-in-law, and then answer the intricacies of this life. Now we can only do one thing-let go.
Therefore, from this passage, we can see that the deceased did three things. First, they emptied their bodies and minds. Second, accept the acceptance of Amitabha in your heart and follow your own wishes; Third, mention Buddha's name. Give the rest to Amitabha, he will have an idea.
