Meaning: once the mind is clean, this is the clean world. Look at all people, and they are also clean people. The world is big or small, and the connotation of a grain of sand is not less than the world we live in.
from: Lotus Everywhere by Chyi Yu.
excerpt from the original text: once the mind is clean, lotus flowers bloom everywhere. A flower is a pure land, and a soil is a Buddha.
definition: once the mind is pure, this is the pure world. Look at all the people, and they are also people who clean the world. The world is big or small, and the connotation of a grain of sand is not less than the world we live in. Flowers and plants, even the beauty of their petals and leaves, can also remind us of the beauty of heaven or pure land. If there is nothing, everything is empty. If the heart is beautiful, everything is beautiful.
Extended information
Buddhist sentiment:
From Tang Wo's post, Lushan Mountain, Torinji, San Xiao Courtyard Union: Bridge across Tiger Creek, Three Religions, Three Sources, Three People and Three Laughs; Lotus opens a monk's house, a flower is a world, and a leaf is a Buddha. He also said, "A world in a grain of sand, a heaven in a flower", and came up with the Buddhist Scripture. In the past, the Buddha touched flowers, but Jia Ye smiled and went to bliss.
You can realize the whole world from a single flower and ascend to heaven. The Buddha is the Buddha. Who can have such a state? ! Buddha said: a flower and a world, a grass and a heaven, a leaf and a Buddha, a sand and a bliss, a pure land, a smile and a dust, a quiet mind. All this is a state of mind.
If there is nothing in the heart, you can spend a world in one flower and a heaven in one grass. Understand these, a flower and a grass is the whole world, and the whole world will be as empty as flowers and plants
There are many sayings about "the world" in Buddhism. For example, the Huayan Sutra says, "Buddhas are born with five-colored stems, one flower is the world, and one leaf is the Buddha." It is also stated in the volume of the Brahma Sutra that Lushena Buddha sits in the big lotus of Chiba and turns into a thousand Buddha statues, each living in the Chiba world. Among them, the Buddha statues in each leaf world turn into ten billion Buddha statues and sit on a bodhi tree.
This is the origin of the idiom "flower world". The world of flowers and flowers originated from this. The world of flowers and flowers generally describes a bustling place, the earth. As the saying goes, the boundary between flowers and flowers comes from this.
The world of flowers and flowers is generally described as a bustling place, the earthly world. For example, the fifteenth time in the Biography of Yue: "Every time I think about the world of flowers and flowers in the Central Plains, I am bent on capturing the Song Dynasty." The first time in "He Dian": "The middle world is the colorful world where the masses live today."
It's about "one true dharma realm", where there are buddhas everywhere, and all living beings are buddhas, "a flower is a world, and a leaf is a Buddha". . . All Buddhist scriptures, even all religions, look at life pessimistically, think that life is painful, ask for liberation, and think that the world is flawed and miserable.
Only "Hua Yan Jing" says that there is no defect in this world, even if it is a defect, it is beautiful; The world is true, good and beautiful; It is a true dharma realm, where all laws are free, and it becomes a Buddha everywhere and a Tao from time to time.
a flower and a world, a leaf and a Buddha, all directions are pure land, so why make dust?
