Is there any Buddha in the world?Where are the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas?Is worshiping Buddha useful?Many believers are deeply confused about this.Many people have worshipped Buddha for many years and burned incense for many years, so they should be very devout believers.
However, many people also questioned that their destiny has not improved much after believing in Buddhism.So faith began to shake.If you are so confused and confused, you will only become more and more stupid.
On the surface, they are close to the Three Jewels, but in fact they are getting further and further away from Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.Is it useful to burn incense and worship Buddha?I believe that after reading this article, everyone will benefit.
First of all, we need to understand that Buddhism is not superstitious, nor is it superstitious about the supernatural powers of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. It is all delusions to believe that Buddhas and Bodhisattvas can help you do things that go against common sense.
Believing in Buddhism means believing in the wisdom of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and even more deeply believing in cause and effect.
Burning incense is not to burn incense for Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas do not lack your incense stick, and they will not treat sentient beings differently.
And worshiping Buddha is not to bend down, but to let go of arrogance.If people in the world seek Buddha with utilitarianism, eagerness to make quick success and instant benefits, and "create Buddha's feet in a while", they will all deceive themselves.
Buddhism has never been a refuge for people to escape from reality, and people often misinterpret it.Subconsciously, I think that becoming a monk means being unable to think about it, and burning incense and worshiping Buddha is superstition.
Whether it is superstition depends on the person's heart.If the heart is confused and blindly believe it is superstition.
If a person has right knowledge, mindfulness and enlightenment in his heart, then burning incense and worshiping Buddha will add icing on the cake and increase his merits.Any offering we make in front of the Buddha should understand its true meaning, rather than blindly following the trend and following the crowd.
Buddhism is not a secular transaction. It is not that the higher, larger, and more incense you burn, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will bless you first.
The fundamental part of Buddhism lies in "cause and effect". Your life fate and your good fortune and misfortune cannot be determined and changed by Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. What causes and results you sow yourself? No matter how powerful Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are, they cannot defeat your own cause and effect.
You have never given the cause of blessings and have never accumulated good karma. You have gone to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to pray. Isn’t this a foolish dream?
All things are empty, cause and effect are not empty
“All things are empty, cause and effect are not empty." The truth of fate is cause and effect. Good fortune cannot be obtained, and good fortune and misfortune can be summoned by oneself.
“Everything is suffering, you can only save yourself." Don’t ask why Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are not effective, and faith does not owe you anything. You should reflect on yourself: you have recited the sutra for ten years but have never given charity;I have recited the mantra for ten years and have not practiced a single sentence;After burning incense for ten years, the hatred has not yet disappeared;I have worshipped the Buddha for ten years, but have not worshipped my parents;After ten years of birth, no fishy or meat loss was reduced;I kowtowed for ten years but never felt favor from anyone;If you practice for another billion years, you will still be a fool.
No matter how sincere or profound you believe in Buddhism, if you do not change your own virtues or your bad thoughts and habits, you are just holding the Buddha's thighs and staying in front of the Buddha's and Bodhisattva statues all day long, what's the use?
True Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are the kindness in our hearts, and there is Buddha in our hearts, and Buddha is everywhere, just as we often say: There are gods three feet above our heads.
Our respect for Buddhas and Bodhisattvas and fear of cause and effect is our refuge to goodness.To truly improve one's destiny, it does not rely on the so-called mysterious power outside, but on oneself.
One person went to the temple and felt that he had believed in Guanyin Bodhisattva for many years, but the Bodhisattva never showed up to help him. So he was so angry that he felt that worshiping Buddha was useless.
Seeing this, the old monk taught: It is better to seek oneself than to seek others. The person who can truly improve one's destiny is the man himself, not the Bodhisattva.Only by understanding one's own shortcomings is to cleanse the good thoughts in the hearts of the believer through humility and respect for Guanyin Bodhisattva, and then through this kind nature, correct one's wrong behavior.
Because of temporary confusion, people commit crimes under the urge to gain profit, but they will eventually suffer the bitter fruit of being imprisoned.In this world, what causes and what results are planted? This is an eternal law. Don’t deceive yourself.
Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are the guides who guide us to the great path of light and liberation, and your own path of life depends on yourself.
Believe in cause and effect, and be unconfused, "All blessings are never left in a square place;Looking from the heart, all the feelings are understood." The people who are truly close to Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are not those foolish believers who kowtow in front of the Buddha all day long and light the smoke and fire in the incense burner, but those who truly practice the Bodhisattva path and are kind and compassionate.
A kind person does not need to burn incense and worship Buddha, and he will have deep blessings."It is in vain to recite Guanyin with bad intentions, and it is in vain to shout to the throat."If you worship the Buddha, you will repent and accumulate virtue, and your life will naturally go smoothly.
