These evil places may be the places that lead us to have five desires and six dusts. In fact, these places are quite attractive to our troubled hearts. But for a person who is determined to leave, be tired of leaving. So we can't leave these places, which shows that we hate centrifugation. If disgust is not extreme, it means that the heart that yearns for the pure land of bliss is also moist. This is a very cold consideration.
Do you really have a heart that leaves this world and hates it very much? It depends on whether you can put it down and really leave. Therefore, the Dragon Tree Bodhisattva said that a Bodhisattva who is determined to Buddhism, Buddhism and descent to all sentient beings does not envy or value the status of the wheel saint king and the subtle five desires. Therefore, people's blessings and blessings should be abandoned, but the compassion, Wade, Shili and Eighteen Ignorance of the Buddhas should be read. This heart is very interested in Buddha's heart, which is naturally a brake to inspire Buddha.
If the little happy place in the world can't be abandoned, not to mention Wang Wu's desire for this extremely subtle enjoyment, let alone abandoned. When you can't give up these things, you want to go to a distant destination, which is like tying your feet and you have to go; A bird, if you want it to fly to the other side, if you tie all its wings, you will never reach its destination.
Therefore, online travelers should stay away psychologically and behaviorally-there are ten places to stay away from. These ten places are very enlightening to us now.
The first is that prosperity is still far away. Busy places and noisy places should leave. But it's not easy. People like those busy places and noisy places. It is said that there are more than 100 festivals in Sichuan, and there is a festival every two days. A festival, of course, is very lively and noisy.
Today is the 25th. It is said that the wine tasting festival ends today, right? So the wine festival came and everyone drank. How happy it is! These places confuse us, and these places trigger our five desires. A trendy concert is coming, and everyone wants to see it. Tickets are very expensive, and then "clang clang" made of heavy metal seems to be very happy. But think about it, how do you feel in heavy metal music? This yelling, Beatles. Can you stay away from the football match?
These happy places in world law must be far from the practice of pure land law. Go to the park, set the table, drink tea, play mahjong, and have a dragon gate array there. Can you leave?
To practice the Pure Land Method, if you can't live without your mother-in-law, it means that you are tired of leaving your mother-in-law, and your desire for bliss is only words without action. For a man who practices pure land Sect, he is in the cycle of life and death. If he wants to keep his head, he should spend every inch of his life on chanting Buddha. Stay away from these!
The second is that the restaurant in Gelou is far away. Song Lou, those concert halls, dance halls, karaoke halls, and places for drinking, guessing boxing and fighting wine should all be far away. Song Lou, those songs are nothing more than love and affection. Who will look at these things without peppers? You've heard a lot. How do you feel? Drinking, wine is the poison of ignorance, blocking our Buddha nature. These should be kept away.
The third is to stay away from the blazing flame. This is probably the place where these snacks, roast beef skewers and flames are smoked. In fact, it is a stinking place. But all living beings always think bad meat is delicious, where they cook, fry and bake. These places should be far away.
The fourth is to stay away from North Korea. It is the politics of the imperial court, because pure land practice yearns for secular law, politics and economy are not in place, and they do not seek their own politics; Second, it is useless to say it; Third, there may be risks. And these politics are always dishonest, so stay away from these places.
Fifth, love and familiarity should be far away. Love is bound, that is, he was born in the realm of desire. He can't live without love, whether it is the love of parents and children or the love between husband and wife. In world law, these kinship relations are considered very precious. However, for Buddhism, it may be another kind of cognition. Since there is infinite robbery, these six relatives and family members are the factors that bind our reincarnation, and we should stay away from them.
There are still familiar places that should be left behind. The ancients in ancient times swore to run away from home and not be a Taoist in their hometown when they became monks.
Master Berberis Huang doesn't go back even if he passes by his hometown. He has a mother who misses her son very much, so she opened a restaurant at the entrance of the village to provide food and wash feet for monks. His mother is blind, but she may miss her son and cry her eyes out.
Phellodendron amurense once saw his mother, and he refused to recognize her. But his mother is looking for her son. She knew that there was a mole at her son's feet. She can tell which monk is her son by washing her feet. But Jackson Phellodendron actually stretched out his other foot and stretched out his other foot twice, which made her not recognize it and left.
After leaving, others recognized their mother-child relationship and told his mother. Master Huang Berberis seems to have no regard for family ties, but Master Huang Berberis vowed to be enlightened to save his parents and didn't want to enter such a state of love before enlightenment.
Sometimes there are obstacles in familiar places, even in promoting Buddhism. Master Mazuma seems to be from Sichuan. Dojo was opened in Nanchang, Hongzhou, Jiangxi, Baofeng Temple. He also returned to his hometown after enlightenment, but the result was that he encountered obstacles in promoting Buddhism. His enlightened ancestors should be respected, but after returning to his hometown, this is not the case.
Those old ladies and grandfathers all knew him, and they said, Oh, it's him! I have known him since I was a child, and I have done everything I did when I was a child. Even revealed the stubbornness, naughty and naughty when I was a child, which made everyone lose confidence and respect for Mazu. Without respect, promoting Buddhism is the problem.
Therefore, Mazu said with emotion: "If you realize it, you will not return to your hometown, and your hometown is not fragrant." So he left his hometown and went outside. Of course, when I was outside, Jiangxi people took advantage and were very respectful to him. He can spread Buddhism well there. Therefore, this shows that this place that is already familiar with love should be kept away. "A bowl of rice, traveling alone in Wan Li", should have this spirit.
The sixth is the poetry and literature society, and the place where the chapter is received should be far away. It is the people who write poems and articles all over the world. See which article they write well and which poem is the most dangerous, and stay away from them in this environment. Because what are we? Is to cultivate the laws of the world. Of course, spiritual and literary products in the world have certain functions, but they have nothing to do with leaving. We should stay away from them.
Because he entered the scope of poetry, literature and literature, he was often frivolous and despised scholars. There is a vulgar saying: articles are your own good. No one says that others write better than themselves. He has an arrogant heart. These will bring us some trouble, so we should stay away from them.
Seventh, ridicule ancient and modern times, and avoid weaknesses. In some places, he talks about mountains here, Beijing is called talking about mountains, and here is called putting a dragon gate array, which means judging the length and short of people.
These past histories, like dreams, have long been dreamed of. Why should we comment on them? Why do you have to sneer at irony? These should be kept away. But these are just places where everyone is happy and feels that life is full.
Aren't there all kinds of salons in the city? Salon is nothing more than discussing which school of philosophy, which school of literature, which historical figure and so on. Here, in his evaluation, there must be his value judgment on good and evil, right and wrong, good and evil, and length. Everyone has different opinions and will argue. These should be kept away.
Eighth, stay away from the nonsense taste science. It also talks about Taoism, but it is meaningless and tasteless, with no real legal significance and no real legal flavor. Stay away from it. This involves many philosophical schools and even many religious classics in the world. Although it is also exploring the truth of life in the universe from an interface, it is not complete.
All philosophies, all sciences, and all heretical classics, which are established in mind consciousness and logical thinking, are not as bright as Prajna paramita in reality and mind, and are meaningless. We should stay away from these Taoist places. Without leisure, it is too late to learn Mahayana classics. How can you have time to learn those heretical classics and attend those lectures on heretical classics? It's not necessary.
Ninth, strive for fame and gain, and stay away from Xiao Zhi. I just like to discuss those theories, compete for fame and fortune there, know a lot of concepts of fame and fortune, give its definition, and then boast that I am knowledgeable and far away from these places. Now there are some academic conferences, forums and the like. Look at these. Of course, we are not denying these, but if we want to, we are not going to be a scholar, let alone a great scholar. In fact, for an honest Buddhist traveler, it is necessary to let go of the delusion of being a great family.
First, we can't be a big family; Second, what's the use of being a great family? What does it have to do with life and death? A well-educated man has a good understanding of the concepts of name and appearance, thinks the exposition is classic, and often has a heart of showing off and arrogance. In fact, people who really understand the pure land law really have to put these down.
Peng Shaosheng lay people set an example for us. Peng Shaosheng, whose knowledge is also remarkable, was originally a scholar in the examination and was born in a family of senior officials. Later, he learned about Taoism and even dabbled in Zen. When he really came into contact with the pure land classics, he suddenly put it down. Pure land classic, it has a characteristic. Although the mystery of Zen is mysterious and unpredictable, it still has something to do with our thinking and mind.
The realm of pure land Buddhism is completely different from our cognition and our realm. It is based on this wisdom and compassion for Buddha fruit. So when I look at the classic Pure Land, I feel that I suddenly face the vast sea from a small river, a small pool and a small river, which is such a feeling. We can't exhaust the vast sea. Since there is no way to exhaust it, it is better to put it down completely and be an honest Buddhist.
Therefore, Peng Shaosheng said that since he believed in Pure Land Sect, contacted Pure Land Sect and chose to practice Pure Land Sect, he vowed to be a fool in the kitchen.
This sentence is worth remembering. If you can be a fool under the kitchen stove, you can completely let go of your thoughts that you want to find out, be an honest Buddhist and admit that you know nothing, are useless, have no wisdom and have no knowledge. Because the wisdom and knowledge of ordinary people are insignificant to the vast sea of pure land practice, we can ignore it and put it all down.
So this may be different from the mentality of other crossing teaching methods. Admit that you don't understand! It is because I don't understand that I lean on Amitabha. As long as I can understand the six-character sutra of Amitabha Namo and deeply understand that each Buddha name is developing our own wisdom, Amitabha's sincere understanding of the sea can be seen from our adherence to each Buddha name.
When our wisdom is developed, when we look at these classics again, we won't find it difficult to grasp them as before, or feel that every classic is about our inner affairs, such as Taoist treasures, and people in the house say things in the house. With such goodwill, don't start with this name and concept. It is very hard to count the sand in the sea like that, and there is no way to grasp it in the end.
So we can understand why some of our pure land ancestors finally let go. Master lianchi said, Sanzang has twelve parts, forgiving others for enlightenment, 84,000 lines, forgiving others; "I have never done anything in my life, but there is no Amitabha in the south." Why did he finally say this sentence?
Master lianchi is also great, a learned man and a scholar. Look at Tommy's Book Tide. Whether it is the knowledge taught by Buddhism or the traditional culture of Chinese studies, he knows this kind of history, four books and five classics very well. Why did he finally give up everything? The only important thing is that there is no Amitabha in the south, which is to seize these six words. Finally, Master Hu Yi said that he would not take part in meditation or study teaching, but count beads and string Zhen Feng tunes.
After learning about the Pure Land Method, Master Wu Chu also put aside all the original meditation. It turned out that he wrote more than 2000 poems and songs in meditation, all of which were burned. He said, "The world is full of ideas. Who else can I miss if I don't miss Tommy? " So these ancestors did not appear as Datong family.
It's the master of printing. We think that he is really a Datong family by reading his Paper Money, but Yinzu never claimed to be a Datong family, and even opposed online games to watch a lot of things. I hope it is a Datong family's delusion.
We must understand why we do this. Because the Pure Land Method is an incredible method, the Infinite Life Sutra talks about Tommy's sea of wisdom, which is not measured by Cheng Cheng Method and Bodhisattva, and it is not measured by us ordinary people. Therefore, those who know many names, read many classics and think their memory and understanding are amazing, we can all put down the Pure Land Method.
The tenth is the crazy solution of zong cheng, the talk of epiphany, and the contempt for commandments should be kept away. Zongcheng, Zen, emphasizes prajnaparamita temperament, but there are often ethereal people who have a mantra; The crazy solution is that under the guidance, he thinks that he will be suddenly enlightened after reading the classics. So there is a group of people who say that they have an epiphany in vain, and they say that they have an epiphany in vain. When he had an epiphany, he looked up. He despised the precepts and thought it was phase. Such a place must be far away.
This means that a layman must be down-to-earth and disciplined. If you don't pay attention to precepts and practice, it is equivalent to magic industry. There is a saying that at the end of the law, all beings can't keep the precepts, so they don't keep the precepts. Even if they get the five precepts, they quit.
If you don't respect the precepts so much, then there is a recognition. Although Buddhist practice relies on the power of other forces-the power of Amitabha, pure practitioners should respect the precepts. Among the three blessings of pure industry, the second one is about precepts, that is, "three rewards, enough precepts, and no violation of dignity." Pure karma and three blessings are the pure karma of the buddhas in the ten directions and three realms.
In addition, the Buddha said in the Mahayana Classic that the precepts of Borotti Mu Cha can only be proclaimed by the Buddha, which is the life span of Buddhism and the architecture of Buddhism. The life span of Buddhism means that only when the four disciples can receive precepts and keep them can Buddhism continue; If the four disciples don't keep the precepts, Buddhism will die out in this world ahead of time. Therefore, it must be the devil's son and grandson who despise the precepts. So this place, where these views are expressed, must be far away.
These ten places are the causes of obstacles, and some connotations of these ten places are no different from those of demons, so we must stay away from them. If a pure walker can leave these ten places, "all karma has been exhausted", that is, he can maintain mindfulness and honestly recite Buddha.
