What should I do if I don t understand some of the Dharma?

The main thing is to listen to the Dharma teachers to preach the Dharma; "For example, the treasure in the dark, no light is visible, no one talks about the Dharma, although wisdom is incapable."

Practice according to the words of the Buddha, don't be slow-minded, for example, when reading the scriptures, I am slow-minded, the Buddha is wrong, the patriarch is also wrong, and I am right. At this time, it is easy to retreat, and I feel that since it is wrong, I will not look at the back, this is because I am slow, and I feel that only I am right. But if you don't give up and continue to read, you will find that it turns out that you are wrong, I myself have had such an experience a few times, I feel that I am slow-hearted, I have to repent in my heart, look honestly, don't be proud, the main thing is to be patient, life is very long, don't rush to understand, slowly understand, study carefully, take notes, sometimes a sentence, one more word, the meaning changes.

Sometimes different words really mean the same thing.

My personal experience is that I have taken Gude as a teacher, taking the words of the Buddha as the standard, don't be in a hurry, don't look at the flowers, pay attention to the body while improving, don't slow down, remember not to use Zen Buddhism.

The words of the Pure Land cannot be used to break the Pure Land, nor can the Hinayana concept be used to break the Mahayana. When you study for a while, you will find that Zen Pure expresses the same meaning, but in different ways.

Remember to do a set lesson every day, recite the Buddha honestly every day, and make a wish to go to the Elysian World, so that even if you don't understand it in this life, you are not afraid, and you will eventually get the Buddha's guidance "If you can see the Buddha, why not be enlightened".

First of all, let's understand the fifty kinds of Yin Demon Realm of the Lengyan Sutra, as well as the printing of ancestral banknotes, prevention**, and evil knowledge and evil opinions.

Don't go to extremes in your practice, such as not eating, drinking, sleeping, etc., you don't have the ability, don't mess around.

Amitabha

Therefore, to learn Buddhism, we should follow the Buddhist scriptures and observe the teacher's teachings, such as Master Da'an has spoken many Buddhist scriptures, "Amitayus Sutra", "Buddha Says Amitabha Sutra" and so on.

If I don't read the original text of the teacher's sermon, I generally can't understand it.

But there is another way, to read the scriptures and recite the Buddha with respect and sincerity, to read a "Buddha Says the Sutra of Amitayus", and to read it repeatedly, that is, to practice meditation, read the book a thousand times, and see its meaning for itself. Because meditation opens wisdom, wisdom opens, and you don't need anyone to talk about it, you understand.

The old master --- we read the scriptures every day as part of the precepts, and after reciting them for a long time, we will naturally become determined, that is, our minds will be pure, and we will have fewer troubles and delusions, and this will be very progressive, and our minds will become purer and more equal, and wisdom will be opened.

The Rational One of Wonders, the Rational Body of Reality", is the Buddha's perception as mentioned in the Lotus Sutra. The Mahayana Huayan Sutra says, "All sentient beings are originally Buddhas." The Buddha's education is nothing else, restoring the Buddha's knowledge, that's all.

The Buddha's knowledge is intrinsic, that is, the wisdom of the Buddha. There is no limit to the depth and breadth of the Buddha's knowledge, and the Buddha's views are completely correct, without the slightest deviation, all of which we sentient beings have, and we are all fully satisfied, but we have lost our own nature and turned correct knowledge and correct views into evil knowledge and wrong views.

The present method must use the teachings of the Buddha to make us enlightened, to turn back, to find our own nature. The method is to read the book a thousand times, and its meaning is self-evident, which is called chanting in Buddhism. What is the purpose of chanting? The purpose of chanting is self-seeing, that is, enlightenment.

Therefore, if you can't solve it, the door to enlightenment will be blocked, and what you get from solving it is common sense of Buddhism; If you don't solve it, keep reading it, and you will become enlightened. When we read the scriptures every day, we will naturally become determined after reciting them for a long time, that is, our minds will be pure, and we will have fewer troubles and delusions, and this will be very progressive, and our hearts will become purer and more equal, and wisdom will be opened.

That's my own lack of wisdom! If you don't understand, put it down! Read what you understand first, put what you don't understand and think about it slowly, or go to the temple to ask for advice from a great monk.

You can use the commentaries of the ancient masters and the explanations of modern mages.

Then, with sufficient "faith and interpretation" to learn the Dharma. To put it simply, if you don't believe deeply, don't understand it thoroughly, and don't do it effectively, you can't prove it. If you believe in it and interpret it accordingly, you will understand the true meaning of the truth.

It is recommended that you watch the 54 episodes of the Indian TV series "Buddha", and Youku** has a Chinese version. It is the best introductory teaching of Buddhism, there is no superstition, it is close to the truth, it restores the facts, and it can best help beginners establish correct faith, correct knowledge, and correct views.

No one says about Buddhism, although wisdom is incompetent. To have the enlightenment of the Master, it is recommended to read the Lotus Sutra and other classics taught by Master Yin Guangmen Qing.

First easy and then difficult, or chanting the Buddha by name.

Exactly: the true scriptures must be taken by the real people, and the intention is always empty.

One thought is the most vivid of a hundred demons, and the practice is the most painful! But by washing without dirt, it is also used to tie and ponder. Sweep away all fates and return to silence, and sweep away thousands of monsters. Discipline jumped out of the cage and ascended to Da Luo.

For monks, all fates are gone; Those who have sex are empty. Great wisdom is idle, and he is in the unborn; The real machine is silent, free in silence. The Three Realms are empty and a hundred are ruled, and the six roots are pure and a thousand are poor.

If it is a sincere awareness, it must be aware of the mind: if the heart is pure, it will be alone, and if the heart is existent, all realms will be clear. The true face is not owed or surplus, and it can be seen during life; Illusions are tangible and ultimately bad, so what do you want?

Practicing gong and meditating is the origin of concentration; Benevolence and kindness are the foundation of practice. is clumsy, and the governor does nothing; Good plans are not fund-raising, and they must be put down. But if one mind does not work, all actions will be perfect; If the clouds pick yin and supplement yang, it is a fallacy, and the bait is long-lived, but it is really a false word.

As long as the dust is always abandoned, everything is empty. Plain and pure and pure love, natural longevity is endless.

1.Good and evil karma can only determine whether you go to the three good paths or the three evil paths, and you can't get out of the six realms of reincarnation, only by cultivating pure karma can you get out of reincarnation!

2.The general principle of Buddhism is the "Three Blessings", and the specific content and meaning can be found on the Internet, and it takes a lot of hard work to really understand it!

3.The role of the sutras is to accept the Dharma according to the specific methods that people of different kinds, different roots, and different understandings can accept, and they cover the explanation of good and evil karma, and the sutras themselves are not just explanations of good and evil karma!

4.The order of structure you mentioned is very good, and for beginners, you must first understand "what is Buddha", "what is Dharma", "what is Dharma", "why you should study Dharma", "what are the benefits of learning Dharma", and the answers to these questions need to be 100% understood, so that you can have a clearer idea of learning Buddhism on your own.

Recommendation: The content of "What is Buddhism" taught by Master Jingkong, if you read carefully, it will naturally solve all your problems.

Every sutra has its general outline, but you can't say "a sutra is a general outline"! Every sutra can help one type of person, so many sutras can help many kinds of people! If they are parallel, it is because the goal is one!

If they are not parallel, it is because they have taken different paths! I hope what I say will help you!

Amitabha

The essence of Buddhism is the complex and vast philosophical system expounded by Buddhism. I guess it's not an easy task to sort it out. The scriptures are books that expound these philosophical principles, and there is no structural order.

By the way, what is the purpose of your Bible study?

In my opinion, if you read the scriptures just to get rid of the suffering of samsara, to get good retribution, and to enter bliss, then you are very wrong. It is useless to understand the truth expounded in the Sutra of Perception and do things according to the truth to obtain good results, but it is useless to blindly read the Sutra without thinking, feeling or acting.

Those who read the Bible out of fear of punishment, or who read the Bible with the intent of bliss, will end up with only comfort in their hearts. If we can live in the spirit advocated by Buddhism, stop evil and do good, how can we get evil retribution? Or if you think about it again, who is the bodhisattva in the Buddhist scriptures and the eminent monk in reality who is bent on only seeking to enter the bliss and attain the right result?

Buddhist scriptures are only the carrier of the Dharma, the key is to understand it, whether it is the six realms of reincarnation, going to hell, or the Elysium, it is only the appearance of Buddhism, not the true meaning.

The above personal opinions, inappropriate points to be pointed out by superiors).

See "Understanding Buddhism" on the Internet of Master Pure Kong. After reading it, you can read the basic beliefs of Nan Huaijin, a Buddhist student, and the Lotus Sutra taught by the Venerable Master Xuanhua. Wang Fengyi's words are also very good.

It is better for beginners not to call it a dead person, but to think of the scriptures as the words of the Buddha to educate the world.

No, every Buddha speaks of the Dharma, and their Dharma is the part of their own enlightenment, and these Dharma are only a little bit of phenomenon when it comes to people, so people will never see the real Dharma.

First of all, all the Dharma is the Dharma of the World-Honored One, and in order to deal with the minds of sentient beings, all the Dharma has been spoken, and the so-called Buddha said that all the Dharma is for all minds, and I have no mind, so how can all the Dharma come from, and as for what the Dharma looks like, it is absolutely impossible to explain in one word.

Look at the Lamrim or Lamrim or Lamrim or Lamrim, which are programmatic.

The Buddha gave the Tao because of the roots.

The Dharma is uncertain.

For different pedestrians.

Choose a different practice.

Read a book of Scripture intensively.

Enough to make you realize.

Yes. Just look at Venerable Pure Space's understanding of Buddhism.

You don't really understand what Buddhism is, but you probably read a lot of books, and the wrong connection leads to your doubts. I suggest you take a look at Master Jingkong's "Understanding Buddhism" to figure out what Buddha is, what Buddhism is, and what Buddhism is, so that you will not go down the wrong path when you study Buddhism. Yes, Buddhism is "do not do all evil, and do all good."

It is right to be wholehearted for good, and you should do more good deeds, but you can't always remember what good deeds you have done, which will not benefit you, but hinder you from continuing to do good deeds. Attachment is not not to do things, but to let go of the heart, do it and forget, so that you can do good deeds and live a comfortable life. You can change yourself through studying Buddhism and let your family feel your improvement, and when your family members ask you how you have become better, you are talking about learning Buddhism, and your family will not oppose Buddhism, and you will introduce Buddhism to your family members very well.

Marriage is something that must be considered sooner or later, as an ordinary person to fulfill the wishes of his parents is filial piety, but in terms of choosing a partner, you have to be cautious, to find filial parents and people with good moral character as partners, your family will be happy. As mortals, it is normal to have mistakes, as long as we can correct them, we don't have to go to hell, and negative karma can be eliminated through repentance. True repentance is not to make the same mistakes again in the future.

At this time of year in our world, there are a lot of bad karma, and the karmic causes of hell also start from our minds, but there is a cause and a fate to achieve results, so that we should not do all evil to prevent and stop evil, and all good practices also need to follow the fate, and we should not be too greedy for good, otherwise we will have greed in our hearts, and merit will become merit, not to mention greed for goodness, even greed for the Dharma is also greed, but we have changed the object of greed, and we have not really let go of the idea of greed, which belongs to the greed of fine thoughts, which is not easy to find in ordinary times. To do good with a pure heart is not to climb but to do good with fate, and to leave no traces in your heart after doing it is the real letting go. Gu Dade said

Eliminate the old industry with fate, and don't create new disasters. Therefore, from the perspective of the mind, Buddhism says that good and evil are evil, evil things are great evil, good is small evil, and pure is pure and pure good. Generally speaking, if a beginner does not attain this level of purity and pure goodness, then teach the good so that he will not fall into the evil path, which is not perfect, but it is also one of the foundations of renunciation from the six realms.

Therefore, the standard of good and evil still starts from the heart, and if you can add listening to the scriptures and hearing the Dharma, the corresponding interpretation will naturally gradually deepen your understanding. If you want to be pure in your body, mouth and mind, you can't do it like reciting the Buddha around the Buddha, and you can do other things according to your own strength, and the result is not the most important thing. When the flowers of bliss bloom and see the Buddha in the past life, the past karma in the Elysium has no fate and will not bear fruit.

When the wish comes again, although it will still be retributed, it will no longer be aware of cause and effect, and it will be able to deal with it freely.

Dharma exists for all living beings. If it is really as difficult to understand as you say, it is immeasurable, how can there be so many enlightened beings?

1.You are so attached to the names in the scriptures that you distort the teachings of the Buddha.

2.Cultivating the Buddha is cultivating the mind, and it is to subdue one's delusional mind. You don't have to involve the complexity of your appearance in your practice.

3.Believe in cause and effect. To study Buddhism is to cut off all evil and cultivate all good.

Completely correct the bad habits that have plagued us immeasurably. Those vices have piled up so much that they can only go to hell. Why, because hell is born of our own hearts.

Having said that, it is still necessary to subdue one's mind and completely quit greed and hatred.

In a word, it's not difficult. If you are pure and honestly recite the Buddha, you will naturally be able to be led by the Buddha to the Pure Land of Rebirth.

If you can't let it go, take your time, you can still get married without leaving home, and it's a good thing to be able to take care of your evil thoughts. Amitabha

It should be learned with the simplest of hearts. All sentient beings have the wisdom and virtue of the same, but they cannot attain it because of delusional attachment, and if they are separated from delusional attachment, all wisdom and wisdom without teachers will be able to come to the fore.
