This article is a collection of the fourth chapter of "Preview of Nanshan Rules at Home" by Master Hongyi's last book "A Briefing of the Second Sentences"”
Chapter 2 French style to enter the temple
Explanation of Master Fayao in Pingxing Temple in Taimu Mountain
Next“Look down at the ground”,Tell us to look down,“Do not be overly sensible”。
So I said at the beginning,When entering the temple, you have to lower your head, hold your waist, and hold your palms together. What does it mean? Subjugate our arrogance.
Especially those who have small positions and small powers at home are extremely arrogant.
In fact, after we understand Buddhism, we see it as very pitiful, a pity, and he doesn't know that it isThe root of suffering。Get a little bit of a nickname in the world. If you think this is very happy and reincarnation is also very happy, it will only make your reincarnation more powerful in the future, and your suffering will be even more dying.
Nowadays, some people who have no good roots have struggled in the world. After fighting for a long time, they have also gained a little reputation and finally found it very miserable. But I can't tell you, what's the final result? Going on a dead end - committing suicide, jumping off a building, drinking poison, going crazy... It's terrible! After a long time, the end was like this, a dead end. I racked my brains to climb up, racked my brains to take out the money from my pockets, and finally forced myself into a dead end. This is the truth in the world, it's terrible!
The Buddha actually told us three thousand years ago that he showed up to speak - what kind of body is the Buddha's manifestation in India? Prince, prince, prince Siddhartha, prince, and the throne of the wheel turner, is immediately the wheel turner, inheriting the throne. Everything is perfect, the body is perfect, we are all happy now, like plastic surgery, etc.... The Buddha's thirty-two characteristics and eighty kinds of good things, and there is no need to have plastic surgery. It is the most perfect in the world. He is the most beautiful, and no one can surpass him. And from the inside, he is the wisest and most compassionate. In terms of strength, he is the most powerful person in the world and has the greatest strength.
He has the strength and the eighteen uncommon Dharmas, so the Buddha dared to declare to the world that "I am the only one in heaven and in the world." Whoever is not convinced will stand up and compare. Only Buddha dares to say this and declare to the world, what do you want to compare? Want to compete with strength? Want to learn? Want to be smarter? Want to compare supernatural powers? Want to compare talents? Various talents: skillful, statement, medical prescription, internal, and cause, etc., you can compare which one you want to compare, so the Buddha is "in the heaven, the world, and I am the only one."
Think about it, when we think about the Buddha's merits in this way, we think of "I am now a disciple of the Buddha, and I have to make the determination to become a monk." What will happen to you? You will be very happy.
Human life is very limited. We should do the most important thing in a period of life, right? Pay attention to efficiency. If you have high efficiency, do the most important things, what you do, what you do, and what you study Buddhism. The most efficient ones are, you will become a monk and study Buddhism, and the most effective ones are.
Think about it if this is the case. How much can you learn at home with so many things? If you are not efficient, you may not even be able to learn it. You can only be called the name of studying Buddhism. So as long as there is a glimmer of hope - after you realize this - don't waver and become a monk resolutely.
So, we usually need to pay attention when we go to temples. Maybe if you don’t recognize this, you will be a little arrogant. What to do, here's the master (Daoxuan Luzu)Tell us, you want“Look down at the ground, don't look high”,On the one hand, we protect life. There may be some insects and ants underground. We need to protect life. On the other hand, we subdue our arrogance, "If you see insects in the earth, don't kill them by chance."
“Don't spit on the ground”——It is of this kind to keep the environment clean and protect the temples clean. Protecting the cleanliness of the environment can make you feel the cause and effect of being born in the Pure Land in the future. Another one, this one“ Don't spit on the ground”There is another meaning. You should see the people who are determined to become monks in the temple. In our temple, there are many people who are determined to become monks in Pingxing Temple. You should praise them when you see them, and you should not scold them. This is also called "not spitting on the ground of monks." Because monks come from these Pure people, and in a broader sense, we should praise each other and not slander each other when we are studying Buddhism at home. This is also called "not spitting on the ground of monks."
Next“Just praise me when you are singing. If you see the grass and soil, remove it by yourself ”。If you enter the temple, you will see weeds, dust, dirty things, littered fruit peels, etc. on the ground. You must consciously clean and clean them.
Don’t come to the temple as if you were at home, or even lazy, walking around like a leader inspecting.This is a very stupid person, very stupid.
When you come to the temple - this is a blessing field - you act quickly. This is the smartest and wisest person. You accumulate blessings by yourself and become a monk if you have the opportunity to become a monk in the future.
This is the second department“Missing and protecting methods”。
We must grasp the center of the second subject, that is, Buddha, Dharma and Sangha are one, chanting Buddha, chanting Dharma, and chanting monks. When you chant Buddha correctly, you are chanting Dharma and chanting monks.; When you are mindful of the Dharma, you will also recite the Buddha's name and the monks. ; When you are minding the monks, you will also recite the Buddha's name and the Dharma. When chanting Namo Amitabha Buddha, you will also recite the Dharma and the Sangha. This is to understand the Three Jewels of One Body.
