The six pure roots are rice Dao , and regression is originally forward

Didn't you make it clear?

The old man of the peak planted the seedlings and said: "Holding the green seedlings and planting the fields all over the field, you will see the sky in the water when you look down, and the six pure squares are the way, and the regression is the original forward." "Buddhism is not different, a thousand lamps have a total of one light, you plant rice today, the Tao is in your hands, sitting and lying is the way, and planting rice is also the way.

Bow your head is to return to the light, the water is clear to see the sky, the heart is clear to see the sex of the sky, the six are the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind, and the color, sound, fragrance, and touch of the law, it is not pure, there is no Tao. Buddha nature is like a lamp, and the house is full of lights. Although there are thousands of lights in the room, they are all full of light, and the light does not interfere with each other.

The mountains and rivers of the universe are all the same, and there are no obstacles; If you can return to the light and see this nature, then the six roots are pure, and everywhere is the Tao. to make the six roots pure; There must be a step backwards. Regression is the same as what the "Lengyan Sutra" says, "the dust is not related, the roots are not coupled, the regurgitation is all one, the six uses are not good, and the land of the ten directions is clear and pure", which is the regression is originally forward.

If you retreat quickly, you will advance quickly, and it will not be possible to move still. The root is not due to dust, that is, the eyes are not turned by color, the ears are not turned by sound, etc., so that the winner will not be turned.

Regarding the six purities, the Yuanjue Sutra also has:

Awaken the circle and clear the reason, show the heart pure, the heart is pure, see the dust pure, see the pure, the eye root is pure, the root is pure, the eye is pure, the eye is pure, the smell is pure, the smell is pure, the ear root is pure, the root is pure, the ear is pure, the mind is pure, the dust is pure, and even the nose, tongue, body and mind, the same is true.

It can be seen that the heart is the root, and the heart is pure and the land is pure. Dust and hard work inside, no obstacles outside, forbearance and humiliation, fame and fortune are vain, in the world, it is poverty, regression, and incompetence, but in fact, the body is not poor, only in the Tao.

Religious doctrine is also sometimes a philosophy.

This poem tells us that from near Zhenshi can see far away, and that regression can also be regarded as progress. Only when we bow our heads with humility can we truly understand ourselves and the world.

A Japanese Zen master once said, "How tall is the universe?" The universe is only five feet high.

If we want to survive in the universe, we have to bow our heads. "When the ears of ripe rice are also low, and if we want to know the truth, we must also humble ourselves and bow our heads.

Ordinary people always think that moving forward in life is the scenery of progress, but this poem tells us that regression is also forward, and people who take retreat as advance are even more forward, and they are even more beautiful.

The ancients said, "Advance by retreating." And he said, "

Nothing is better than regression. "How comfortable it is to take a step back before fame and wealth; How leisurely it is to endure three points before people are right and wrong. This kind of forbearance in humility is the real progress, and this kind of always taking care of the feet and moving forward in a down-to-earth manner is the most true and noble.

Life can't just go straight forward, sometimes, if you can take a step back and think, the so-called "turning back is the shore", there can often be an optimistic scene of the sea and the sky.

Full poem: Planting green seedlings all over the field, looking down to see the sky in the water.

The six pure roots are the way, and the regression is the forward.

This is a poem written by a Budai monk in the Tang Dynasty.

According to Chinese folk sayings, the Budai monk is the incarnation of Maitreya Bodhisattva, often carrying a bag to walk all levels of society to practice compassion and incarnation. Once, when I was working with a farmer, I felt something in my heart, so I wrote this poem.

Analysis: "Planting green seedlings all over the field" describes the form of the farmer's basic socks for planting seedlings, and "when you look down and you see the sky in the water", you need to bend down and bow your head, and when you look down, you can see the sky reflected in the water. Zen poetry implies the truth of being a man, there are no distracting thoughts in the heart, bowing down to do things, it seems humble, but it is to lower your head to see the blue sky reflected in the water, the vastness of the sky is originally when you look down and look at the heart, you can see it!

A pure mind is the way", and only when our body and mind are no longer bothered by external material desires is the path of cultivation. "Regression turns out to be forward" The farmer transplants rice while planting backwards, and it is precisely because of this way that he can plant all the seedlings, and regression is forward. The truth of being a man grinding boys, sometimes the after-fight is like this field, which seems to be regressing, but in fact progress has been made, taking a step back and opening up the sky!
