Tao produces one, which produces two. Two produces three, and three produces all things.
"Tao gives birth to one": "One" is the virtue of great birth, Wuji, the beginning of nameless heaven and earth. After Taoism was born, he passed away in the world of the ten directions for an eternal moment as small as a mote of dust, and reappeared according to fate. (The big day is passing, the passing day is far, and the far side is reverse)
"One Life and Two": Heaven and earth begin to divide, nature moves, the beginning of movement is yang, and the movement is extremely yin. The nature of the earth is stillness. The beginning of stillness is soft, and the end of stillness is extremely hard. This is the principle of innate regularity.
"Two give birth to three": In the world of love vessels of heaven, virtue and earth, the constant thoughts and defilements of the self are born from the leaky seeds in the alaya consciousness (the old Tao is the great sky and the great earth). I am also great), in this righteous root body, in the world of retributive objects, I follow the laws of fate and change in response to the changes of heaven and earth. These three are the strings of Qi in the Tai Chi Diagram, and this is the true self. Fools do not distinguish between consciousness and roots. They cling to false knowledge as consciousness and the solution of emptiness as wisdom. Knowing this, you know how to stop and become calm and wise.
"Three things arise": manifested by the heart and changed by consciousness. As powerful as the Buddha is, so are all sentient beings. All living beings have karma and temporarily live in the same world, and a single move affects the whole body. Therefore, the mind can turn things around, just like the Tathagata. Please cherish this rare opportunity of human life. (Don’t listen to the evil masters who claim to understand the ultimate truth in the Dharma Ending Age. If you follow their own kind and stay away from your mind, it will lead to the decline of the world! The only way to understand the six roots is to keep learning.) If you learn more and more, you will lose more and more if you follow the path. The emptiness becomes wisdom, and the whole path is unified. If you don't cultivate the great path, you will be confused. How can you be a husband even if you let talented people down?

Nothing is said until proven, the following is just conjecture! The original meaning of this sentence is Laozi's explanation of how the material world we live in (called the land in the Buddhist scriptures) is created through "Tao generates one, one generates two, two generates three, and three generates all things. All things bear yin and embrace yang, and the energy creates harmony." How could it be that it evolved from Tao? How it evolved. The nature of matter and sentience. The specific explanation of the Surangama Sutra is relatively clear: the mind and the dust are hidden away, so the dust is tired and has the appearance of the world. From the basic thought of ignorance, one thought gives rise to three details, namely, the appearance of karma, the appearance of transformation, and the appearance of appearance. For details, please refer to the fourth Shurangama Sutra by Master Xuanhua. From this we can see that mind and matter are not dual, mind and matter are one! The world is neither materialistic nor idealistic, but consciousness-only. For an introduction, please refer to Feng Dayan’s Ode to the Rules of Eight Senses. . . My own understanding is that Tao Sheng Yi. The Buddha-nature is enlightened by enlightenment, and becomes enlightened by enlightenment. Because of the yin and yang of enlightenment, there are false virtues (the Tao is one, and there are two in one life). Why does one have two, so it is three? How did this three come from? The wisdom of equality of the consciousness-only school is the understanding of the evolution of each identical one in the Tao. (Earth, water, fire and wind are the masculine of the two that belong to the evolution of one. Combined with the feminine to form a thing of ignorance.) Obscurity is Empty, empty and dark, forming darkness into color. People in the same industry are entangled and become separated. All things here are physically real things, all things in the universe. Everything in the universe is a combination of sentient beings’ earthly labor. There is a poem "Thousands of rivers with water, thousands of rivers with moons, thousands of miles of cloudless sky," and all things are the combination of the worldly labor of many unenlightened Buddhas? . All living beings with virtuous Manas consciousness holding the Yang Yu (thousands of rivers in the poem) refer to the allusion to the moon in the Surangama Sutra. One reference point of the Buddha's teachings is that everyone is equal. Everyone is a Buddha, and the Buddha nature is the same as the Buddha.
