One of the four sentences in Six Ancestors Tanjing written by Six Ancestors Huineng, where did the dust come from? Bodhi has no trees, and the mirror is not a stage. There was nothing, so there was no dust.
Bodhi was originally a metaphor for wisdom, while Spiegel is a metaphor for peace of mind. Where is the original quiet place, where will it be contaminated with dust?
Extended data:
"Bodhi has no trees, and it is not Taiwan in the mirror. There was nothing, where did the dust come from? " It is found in the six ancestors' magic weapon altar sutra, which is widely circulated and supplemented by the whole Tang poetry. According to the textual research of Guo Peng's Notes on the Tanjing, this article evolved from the first one of Bodhisattva, and the key lies in the third sentence, which was originally cited by the wisdom, and changed from "the Buddha's nature is always pure" to "nothing".
Guo Peng believes that this is a misunderstanding: "The first runner of the Tanjing not only does not understand the theory of Buddha nature, but also does not understand the theory of emptiness." The so-called "emptiness" and "nothingness" in Mahayana Buddhism are actually based on "false heart" and "false realm"; As far as "sincerity" and "truth" are concerned, it is by no means "nothing"
