    When you want to practice, you can just sit down and practice, but only if you let go of your baggage.

    What is your baggage now? What I see is your attachment to becoming a Buddhist layman, which hinders you so that you just want to be a layperson and find to be there, and you don't see that you have lost too much time and energy during this period.

    It is the same for monks and at home, meditating and reciting sutras in the temple is practice, and reading in school is also practice.

    For example, when you drink water, you can think that there are thousands of lives in the water, and you drink them to your stomach, and you have to bless and pray for them, and use your mental power to pray for them to get rid of the sea of suffering of small worms and be reborn in the next life. When others scold you and bully you, you have to think that this is your fate in the billions of lives of all living beings, and you have to cherish this fate ......There are also some people and things that I usually encounter.

    This is the practice.

    I advise you not to spend money to find a dojo, most of the current monks spend money to go to work and bring their families to work.

    As long as you want to learn, try to let go of your attachments first, you are already practicing, and you have already taken a big step forward.

    The big is hidden in the city, and the small is hidden in the mountains.

    Everyone has their own practice, and everyone has their own opportunity.

    I asked the Buddha: How can we be as wise as you?

    The Buddha said: The Buddha is the person who has come over, and the person is the Buddha of the future The Buddha divides all things in the world into ten worlds: Buddha, Bodhisattva, Shravaka, Yuanjue, Heaven, Asura, Man, Beast, Hungry Ghost, and Hell;

    Heaven, asura, man, beast, hungry ghost, hell. for the six realms of beings;

    Sentient beings in the six realms have to go through the cycle of cause and effect, from which they experience suffering.

    In the process of experiencing suffering, only by understanding the true meaning of life can we attain eternal life.

    Phoenix, Nirvana.

    The Buddha said that there are eight sufferings in life: birth, old age, sickness, death, love and separation, long-term resentment, and can't ask for it. The Buddha said: Life is created by oneself, the phase is born from the heart, everything in the world is the phase, the heart does not move, everything does not move, the heart does not change, everything does not change.

    The Buddha said: Sitting is also Zen, walking is also Zen, a flower is a world, a leaf is like coming, spring flowers are green, autumn leaves are drifting, infinite like the heart is at ease, and the silent movement is natural.

    The Buddha said: All laws are born, all are fate, accidental encounters, twilight looking back, destined to each other's lives, just for the moment when the eyes meet.

    Dependent origin is extinguished, and dependent birth is empty.

    — Cangyang Gyatso.

    The so-called practice is not to stick to the form, but to understand the meaning. Only self-cultivation, not mind cultivation, can not be called cultivation; Only cultivating the mind, on the contrary, can achieve small success.

    Because the world is running out of time? It seems that you don't have a very clear understanding of the end of the world in 2012! The end of the world in the Mayan prophecy refers to the end of the Mayan calendar cycle, not the destruction of the earth...

    But I think self-cultivation is a good thing... Qingcheng Mountain is very good... The environment is quiet...

    If it's not enough, it's a little more expensive!

    It seems that you have deep roots.

    Personally, I think the fastest achievement is for Tantra.

    Tantra is for convenience.

    With a guru. He will observe your causes.

    What to fix when and when.

    He'll know. Avoid detours.

    Achievements are fast.

    Self-cultivation. Focus on cultivating the mind. With mercy in the heart, compassion. It would be best if you could chant the sutra every day.

    First of all, you have to take three refuges, similar to when you enter a school, you have to go through the admission procedures and issue a student ID.

    Secondly, if you can learn the five precepts and ten virtues, if you can keep the precepts, you will already be a very regular layman.

    To learn Buddhism and become a Buddha, simply put, it is necessary to go through the four steps of "believing, understanding, acting, and attaining" and adopting the six paths of "six paramitas", and go through the three levels of "precepts, concentration, and wisdom", and finally to achieve the right results and become a Buddha on the ground. Let me give you a brief introduction in turn:

    1. Belief and interpretation: First of all, we must have faith, and have the determination to follow the footsteps of the Buddha to practice and follow the methods guided by the Buddha, which is called "faith", and Buddhism is also called "developing bodhicitta mind"; Then there will be a monk who is really a monk to explain the Dharma to you, that is, "understanding"; Then you have to do it according to the method taught to you by the monks, that is, linking theory with practice, which is called "doing"; Finally, it is verified from practice that what has been learned is true, which is called "proof";

    2. The "Six Perfections of Paramita" are the six paths of spiritual practice, referred to as the "Six Perfections", namely: generosity, forbearance, vows, diligence, meditation, and prajna. In modern parlance, it is simply understood:

    Selfless dedication (generosity), enduring grievances and suffering, observance of Buddhist rules and regulations (taking vows), studying hard to move up every day (diligent improvement), and meditating to free one's mind from the control of emotions (meditation) and attain supreme wisdom (Prajna).

    3. Precepts and wisdom: This represents the realm of the three levels of practice, the "precepts" are the precepts above, the Buddha tells us what things can be done and what things cannot be done, monks must abide by 250 rules and regulations (Buddhism called "precepts"), female monks (we often say nuns) are 348, if you do not leave home and study Buddhism at home, you only need to abide by five precepts, that is, "hold five precepts" (it seems simple, it is not easy to do). "Meditation" is "meditation", this is the most important way of practice in Buddhism, people who return to meditation may not be able to become a Buddha, but Buddhahood must be inseparable from meditation!

    "Hui" means "Prajna wisdom", because the word "Prajna" contains six different wisdoms, which cannot be translated, but can only be called "great wisdom".

    After the "three refuges", you will naturally be a layman.

    Ask an acquaintance to introduce you or go to a temple where you are destined to explain your intentions to the master.

    To take refuge, you should have 2 photos, give the master and the incense "Li Shi", and ask for the money of the "Haiqing". Then the master will give you the name of the Dharma.

    May it help you. Amitabha!!!

    1. Furnishings: 1. Set up a Buddha platform to place Buddha statues. 2. Set up an offering table, provide tea and fruits every day (change once every 3 to 5 days), and provide meals on the 10th Lent Day.

    3. Conditional placement of prayer mats (for the use of those who come to listen to the scriptures and listen to the Dharma), the number varies, 4. Placement of prayer tables and chairs (used by the person and the invited laymen, and at the same time placing ritual utensils such as wooden fish and incense burners, etc.). 2. Study: 1. Morning and evening classes every day.

    2. Chanting: Jizo Sutra, Medicine Guru Nyorai Honwish Gongde Sutra, Lengyan Sutra, Myoho-renge-kyo Sutra, Amitayus Sutra and so on. As for what sutra to recite, it is possible to do it according to one's own time and need.

    Third, learn to beat the magic instrument. Fourth, ordination: Go to the monastery and ask the master to grant three refuges, five precepts, and bodhisattva vows.

    Fourth, participate in various activities at nearby monasteries.

    The Buddha does not have a definite image, it represents the enlightened and enlightened one. It is also a symbol of wisdom. From impermanence, we realize the meaning of life, and through selflessness, we realize the true emperor of the universe.

    There is no distinction between large and small cultivation, no distinction between high and low wisdom, and no particular order of enlightenment. There is no difference between cultivating and not cultivating, between successful and uncultivated, between good and bad, between good and evil, between male and female. Everything is at ease in people's hearts.

    There is a distinction for the ordinary, and there is no distinction for the holy. Nothing is a Buddha. But it's not.

    Do not think of all good, do not think of all evil. Impermanence is impermanent, there is no thought, there is no thought. So to be sure, as long as there is me in the world, there will be no Buddha.

    Breaking the self is the way, and it is impossible to be compassionate. Beings!! It is the meaning of three flowers gathering and five super round.

    Sanhua!! It is one body, three bodies, and three Dharma seals. This is the wisdom left by the Buddha, not words, who has sentient beings in their hearts, can sentient beings.

    Asceticism is not the method of birth, it is intended to touch the body and realize the heart. All good dharmas are not born dharmas. But people don't think about goodness, and they don't feel the compassion of the Buddha
