Greed, hatred, ignorance, and suspicion, but these five poisons have not changed.
What and how to learn Buddhism?
Cultivate the precepts diligently and fix wisdom, and extinguish greed and hatred. The former serves the latter, and forgets the connotation.
-
The causes and conditions of the law are fixed for a short time, and we should be diligent and diligent, and the path will take the right results.

There is no such account. The 20 types of women are for all women, including concubines. But in the society at that time, concubinage was a legal act.
Therefore, concubinage is subject to parental consent and witnessing ceremonies, so it is not within the scope of the precepts. The Buddha did not criticize the private life of a layman, but only demanded that the five precepts be met.
The four-caste system in ancient Indian society was a very strict feudal social system. The 20 types of women were instituted to include those women, because women who belonged to Vaishyas (merchants) or Shudras (slaves) were often violated by Kshadhili or Vaishya men. This is because these women are seen as inferior and do not consider it a shame to assault others.
So the Buddha instituted these 20 types of women and completely excluded the caste system. All women are protected by the precepts, and in order for a layman to obtain a concubine, he must follow the legal process and not violate the woman.
A look at the 20 types of women reveals that many of them do not correspond to modern conditions, although the content of the precepts can be understood in terms of the phenomena of modern society.

Your current situation is a common problem for beginners:
It's your heart that's tiredCompleting various classical recitations and mantras, and making daily lessons, including the release of life, etc., are like homework that must be taught in school. And you can't really understand the direction of the classic mantra Buddha name, just like you copy the Lengyan Sutra every day, but you don't understand the first volume: the hand indicates the moon.
I work my homework every day, but I don't know that the source of my homework is my own nature, and all the twelve parts of the Three Tibets come from my own nature and belong to my own nature.
If you want to solve the problem fundamentally, you must deeply unravel the "Lengyan Sutra" and understand your true nature. From the literal prajna to the contemplative prajna, and thus to the reality. The more you understand the Buddha's insight and enter the Buddha's knowledge, the easier it will be for you.
It's a painstaking process. But it is true that without some cold and bitterness, how to get the fragrance of plum blossoms!
It is recommended to face the prescribed courses easily and focus on solving problems at the same time.

Your problem is that the practice of Buddhism is all about the outward appearance and not going deep into the heart. The most important thing in learning the Dharma is to cultivate your mind and see how much your heart changes. You should read more scriptures such as the Heart Sutra, the Diamond Sutra, and the Sutra of the Six Patriarchs, understand the truth, and practice them.
-
This is not cultivation, you are stunned, there are many similar examples of you in society at present, or endless indiscriminate practice has disrupted your life, and you are tired and want to die or live! Either leave your job and your family behind! I thought it was to devote myself to the Buddha, but if I had it in my heart, why did I ask for it in my hand?
You only want to see how many scriptures you have copied and how much merit you can accumulate!
Have you ever wondered what you're practicing for?!!

Who gave you the lesson recitation itinerary: After doing this, don't live at home, the practice is not like this: it's a bit messy.
It's better to find something simple and easy, and the rest is to use the four-character Vajra: Amitabha.
-
You must be very tired when you recite the Buddha so much, and it's normal to be tired, since your family doesn't like you to kneel at home to read, you can secretly find a place to read, and there is no need to read, and give merit back to your family. After the release, I feel very fulfilled and very good, it has nothing to do with whether I am tired or not, please continue to persevere, and rejoice with you.

Brother, why are you studying Buddhism? What is the purpose of studying Buddhism?
-
The true meaning of Buddhism is why do people have so many afflictions? What is the source of distress and what is the solution to it.
If someone asks, "What is the most concise fundamental idea in Buddhism?" ”
We can quote the Buddha's shortest words: "Don't cling to everything!" This is a concise aphorism proclaimed by the Buddha himself.
We don't have to spend time looking for answers in the Titaka of Haohan, because the Buddha used this phrase to describe the teachings of Buddhism quite clearly.
When we understand this truth, we can say that we have already understood the 84,000 methods that the Buddha said. When we practice this sentence, we can also say that we have practiced all the methods.
Why do people break vows? Because he has attachments, if he doesn't have any attachments that he likes or hates, he won't break the vows. Why is the human heart scattered?
Because of attachment to something. Why do people have no wisdom? Because he is stupid and clings to something.
If one can cultivate to the point where "everything is not attached," he will be able to attain enlightenment, attain fruition, and attain ultimate nirvana.
The Buddha was a completely detached person, and the Dharma teaches the "actions" and "proofs" of "detachment", and the sangha is a group of monastics who are practicing or have already practiced "detachment".
When someone asked the Buddha, "Can you sum up all your teachings in the shortest sentence?" Buddha: "Yes! Then he said, "Don't be attached to anything!" ”
Therefore, the life of a great benevolent person is a life of seclusion and practice, and it is not a way of life for each person, not a representation of the Dharma. In terms of the meaning of this, if the life of a good person is not conscious, if the life of seclusion is not true, then what they do may not be meaningful.

Rejoice in your heart and admire your filial piety!
1.The location of the shrine is not the main reason. I live in an apartment, because the living room is small, and the shrine on the wall is also separated from the shower room, and there is nothing bad, on the contrary, in 2011, I checked the shadow of the right kidney, and this year there is no one at all.
So, my advice is: if you have a grudge in your heart, you must remove it, and if you look away, you must put it down. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas don't condemn because there is a toilet next door, as long as you think about the Three Evil Realms and the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas incarnating to save salienent beings, isn't there any defilement?
Will the Great Enlightened One be hated?
2.The old man was nearly 90 years old and interested in Buddhist practice. As the old saying goes, obedience is filial piety.
For family members who have not yet believed in the Dharma, it may be that they feel superstitious and delayed. But in fact, from the perspective of psychological medicine, as long as the elderly believe in Buddhism and chant Buddha and are happy, it is not good for the body! If the power of family affection and the name of science cut off the idea of the old man's death, will he lose the courage to fight the disease?
3.There are two methods that I know and practice to prolong life: the Medicine Teacher Method and the Victory Method.
The methods are relatively simple. Because the old man is getting older, I think as long as he does these three things: from the form to the inner identity, take refuge in the Three Jewels with sincerity; From the choice of practice to the daily homework, the heart holds the name; From the beginning of the day, I will never leave the vows, repentance, and willingness.
I wish the elderly: good roots grow, karma is sold quickly, and the Mahayana and the Pure Land are straightforward!
Nan no pharmacist Liuli light is coming!

1 The old man rejoiced in believing in Buddhism, and his good roots from the immeasurable eons were revealed.
2. Guanyin Bodhisattva is good to put it in a convenient place at home, don't be stubborn. Because the incarnations of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are everywhere.
3. The problem of kidney cancer has nothing to do with the location of the Buddha statue.
4. Monks and great virtues will also show cancer, serious illness, and even murder and murder. None of this will affect the virtues of the great monks, and they will also be reborn in the Western Elysium. The same goes for your grandfather, don't be taboo about these.
5. The best way is to develop bodhichitta, repent, release life, give alms, and recite the Buddha well. Cooperate with **, chant more Buddha. There must be a very good and successful outcome.
6. You also study the Dharma deeply, listen to and meditate and practice, and you will naturally understand.
7. If the family rejects the Dharma, you can recite the Buddha and dedicate it to them. Moreover, those who study Buddhism must do their duty well, and benevolence, righteousness, loyalty and filial piety are the best ways to learn Buddhism. If you want to influence everyone, you have to make a good example.

Buddha in the heart. I once saw a story: a hunter every day hunting to give a monk in the cave to give a deer leg, 20 years unchanged, suddenly repented and repented, decided to change the past, jumped from the cliff, his hunting dog turned into a big bird to take him to see the Buddha.
When the monk saw it, he felt that he had been practicing for a long time, and he would have been able to see the Buddha a long time ago, so he also jumped down ......
Therefore, the personal feeling is in the heart.
-
There are many ways to enter the Tao, only people are interested, and there is no certain way.
Those who are certain are said to be honest and respectful. These two things, although the Buddhas in the future are born, cannot be easy.
Different sentient beings like to study different scriptures and methods, but the practice of the door, that is, which path is the goal, where to understand.
Knowing this truth, you should return to the Pure Land, but you may wish to study the Mahayana sects. With bodhicitta and the conviction of wishing to be reborn in bliss, every word and deed will lead to the same goodness.
-
Each has its own cause, and everyone should not care about others. Since you now think that it is enough to cultivate the Dizang Sutra, go for it.
The Buddhist scriptures are all about things in life, not what our distinction and our consciousness think, so don't interpret the Buddhist scriptures literally.
For example, the Jizo Sutra talks about eliminating karma, have you ever thought about whether your karma will disappear after you practice the Jizo Sutra? How much has it been consumed? How do you know if your karma is gone?
Cultivation is not based on feelings, let alone following the crowd, but on the basis of real practice.
Have you ever asked yourself: Am I right to do this? So how do you fix it?
If you cultivate with such doubts, you will also recite the Jizo Sutra a thousand times, and the harvest will be much greater than that of cultivating without doubts.

Mida Buddha! Senior brother is very good-rooted! Thoughts are selfless!
The so-called filial piety is a kind of causal law born of current causes in this world, not the real law of birth. To put it bluntly, the Jizo Sutra tells us the true truth of cause and effect, and the true power of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas!
The benefits mentioned by the senior brother are seen as follows: The Buddha is not lying to us, if we can really understand the truth of cause and effect, and can truly understand why Yan Futi sentient beings are strong and difficult to reconcile, and their hearts and minds are moving, they are not all karma, all are sins, and they can really quickly surpass the holy land. This immeasurable Nyorai contains all the treasures, but how much can we benefit?
If the Treasure manifests, we will benefit! But just like the senior brother said, when you come to the Dizang Sutra now, you don't ask for liberation, you don't want to become a Buddha, you just want to eliminate your karma and increase your merits, and you don't even think about increasing your blessings and wisdom, which is also a thing that can't be helped. Because the current situation of the end of the Dharma is like this, everyone seeks the Dharma outside their hearts, chases the good fortune of the world, and does not give birth to the heart of renunciation!
Amitabha! Brother! Since this is the great vow of becoming a Buddha, you should follow the Buddha's teachings and practice it! Join the Buddha Light Shine Five Groups and learn the Dharma with all of us. 117924574 starts at 7 p.m. every night
