What to do if you have thoughts of disrespect for the Buddha

When thoughts of disrespect for the Buddha arise, you can try the following methods:

1.Repentance: If you believe in Buddhism and have thoughts of disrespect for the Buddha, you can seek forgiveness and protection from the Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva through repentance, such as kneeling in front of the Buddha statue and meditating day and night.

2.Thinking: Try to think about and understand Buddhism, the essence and core of Buddhism, i.e., "everything is empty", "the Four Noble Truths", "the Noble Eightfold Path", etc., as well as the "five aggregates", "six paths", "karma and samsara", etc., in order to understand that these thoughts are only temporary, false thoughts, not real, eternal thoughts.

3.Thanksgiving: Try to be grateful to the Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva, grateful for their endless compassion and protection, grateful for their dedication and efforts for all beings in the world, and at the same time be grateful to the semblies around you, try to find their shining points and favor to themselves, so as to increase the resolution of disrespect for the Buddha.

4.Faith: Try to be firm in your beliefs, believe in the existence and blessing of the Buddha and Guanyin, believe in your own Buddha nature, and your own connection and communication with the Buddha and Guanyin.

5.Good deeds: Through the power of good deeds, help others, love sentient beings, do more good deeds, accumulate one's own merits and good fortune, and thus increase the resolution of disrespectful thoughts towards the Buddha.

In short, when disrespectful thoughts arise about the Buddha, do not be too nervous and blame yourself, and actively seek help and resolve them through the above methods, so as to strengthen your faith and enhance your practice.

In your case, it should be a compulsive reaction, that is, the more you are afraid of this disrespectful thought, the more this kind of thought will appear, you can't control it, you can't forcibly suppress it, the more you suppress it, the stronger it is, right?

This kind of thought does not represent your true opinion, so the Buddha and Bodhisattva will not blame you, because the Buddha and Bodhisattva also know that this compulsive mechanism exists in the human brain.

It may be that the seeds of negative karma from the past are drawn out, just like the toxins in the body are drawn out by cupping and dissolving evil, which is a good thing in itself. The gods and Buddhas are the embodiment of wisdom and compassion, and the evil thoughts they are born with are like "gua sha detoxification". You just need to observe your mind and silently observe your own psychology, and if you have this idea, don't think about it, it's over, just like the bruises left by gua sha don't need to be seen and touched again and again. ”

It is a person who is hindered by demons and reciting scriptures, so he doesn't need to pay attention to it, just concentrate on chanting it.

We are ordinary people, with deep sins and obstacles, and we have no beginning, creating all kinds of bad karma, and we also have all kinds of habits and seeds

When reciting the Buddha, I am afraid that it will emerge. In other words, our own thoughts are not good, and when you recite the Buddha, the object of these bad thoughts becomes the Buddha.

I feel disrespectful to the Buddha. In fact, my personal feeling is that my own habits are too heavy. If you change the object to yourself with this kind of thought, your mind will be more settled.

In other words, if you have any bad thoughts about the Buddha, the object is the Buddha, and then you turn to yourself, that is, these evil thoughts are to yourself. In other words, you don't have to pay attention to it at all, no matter what thoughts it has, don't care about it, because it's a delusion, it's a habit, you don't need to pay attention to it, keep reading it, and over time, these thoughts will slowly disappear, and this is also a way.

In short, these are delusional thoughts, and you should not mistake them for reality and be swayed by them, and concentrate on reciting the Buddha. Ignore it.

A Buddha is an enlightened being. Any sentient being becomes a Buddha when he is enlightened.

Blessings are not Buddhas, and curses are not Buddhas. It's all the concept of sentient beings. A Buddha is to guide sentient beings to become enlightened Buddhas, and nothing else.

The retribution for disrespecting the Buddha has been exaggerated by some people, as if God was punishing those who were disrespectful. In fact, the Buddha treats respect and disrespect equally, and it is not the Buddha who has a different heart.

There are two aspects of retribution for disrespecting the Buddha, both of which are realized by sentient beings' own minds: one is to have a disrespectful heart towards anyone, that is, to do the karmic causes, there will be results, and if others do not respect you, you will definitely not be happy, and this is considered a bad retribution. Don't think that it's okay if someone you don't respect doesn't know what's going on, because all living beings have one alayya, and any motivation exists in it, and the retribution will appear when the opportunity is ripe.

On the other hand, the Buddha is a teacher who talks about the Dharma, and if you don't respect the teacher, you won't listen to the lecture properly, and this will hinder you from becoming a Buddha.

In addition, it is said that slandering the Buddha is punished because it hinders all beings from becoming Buddhas. For example, if someone slanders the Buddha, in whatever form, whether it is slandering or misinterpreting the Buddhist scriptures, it will shake the faith of some sentient beings or lead them astray, and the path to Buddhahood will be hindered, and the retribution will be hindered in various forms (whether intentionally or unintentionally, because cause and effect are determined). Because they are hindered and do not understand the Fa-rectification, they create sinful karma and sow the seeds for greater retribution in the future.

If your disrespect for the Buddha affects sentient beings in a tangible form, then those who learn the same way will not listen to the Dharma and will hinder you from becoming a Buddha, and some good people who are not deeply involved in Buddhism may become dissatisfied or even angry because of this, which is also bad karma, and your actions will cause others to do bad karma, and you will have to bear the consequences. If it's just disrespect in the heart and doesn't show it, then it's working on awareness. Because Alayas are one, the thoughts of any sentient being have an impact on other sentient beings to a greater or lesser extent, and it also contributes to the collective karma of sentient beings.

The Buddha name of Amitabha Buddha has a special role, which is related to Amitabha's vow. See the "Amitabha Sutra" and "Amitayus Sutra" in detail. The name of Amitabha Buddha has the function of vajra seeds, and when you hear and see it, it will be present in the Alayya consciousness, which can be seen as a kind of "pure karma" in addition to good karma and bad karma (both of which are samsaric karma), and its result is the bliss of rebirth.

After passing away in Bliss, continue to practice until you become a Buddha (only passing away does not become a Buddha, Elysium is also a world, and there are sentient beings, but it is like a safe, and when you reach this world, you will not retreat, and you will no longer be reincarnated). Of course, when you can die is related to many factors, maybe it will take many lifetimes, maybe one lifetime. For your question, the Buddha name is neither good nor evil, neither a blessing nor a curse.

If you think that bliss in rebirth is a blessing, then it is a blessing, although "blessing" is not a Buddha's concept.

These are my understandings, for reference.

"Nan Mu Amitabha" is originally a "king of mantras" (the most wonderful mantra) used by practitioners of the Pure Land sect to practice: "Nan Wu" has many meanings, the most fundamental is "to take refuge and rely on"; "Amitabha" also has many meanings, the most fundamental is "Amitayus Amitayus" (this is the name of a saint who made a great wish to become a Buddha and live his life, because he once made a vow that if anyone recites his name, they will come to take him to the Elysian World when they are dying, so the practitioners of the Pure Land sect recite this Buddha name every day. Taken together, we give everything I have to the Buddha of Amitayus.

Since practitioners do not say right and wrong, and everyone they meet uses the phrase "Nam no Amitabha" to express politeness and respect, there is no difference between "blessing" and "curse". (Some people use it to express a sense of schadenfreude for another reason.) ）

If we don't respect him, it means that we are arrogant, self-righteous, and unwilling to learn from his old man, then we will not be able to accept his old man's education on the wisdom of our sentient beings, and of course we will not be able to solve our troubles and sufferings. This is just like when we don't listen to the teacher, we don't offend the teacher, but we hurt ourselves. It is also appropriate to call this mistake a "sin."

He said "no" because the Buddha is a liberated being, an enlightened being, and although he wants sentient beings to understand the truth and be happy, he knows that sentient beings are not wise enough to see through the illusory and untrue nature of all things in the universe, and they suffer because of attachment. He doesn't add sin to sentient beings except for compassion for sentient beings, and in that sense, don't be afraid of what the Buddha will do to you.

In the Buddha's view, giving birth to the Buddha as one, and respecting the Buddha is actually respecting oneself; To despise the Buddha is to despise oneself. Therefore, we should not only respect the Buddha, but also the heavens, the earth, and all sentient beings. We are all one, what have you been arrogant about?

Dao Friendly asked, in Xia Gu vainly said, the Buddha's wish is that everyone in the world can become a Buddha, thinking about saving the world. Ordinary people are obsessed, and they can't make their own decisions, so they can only follow their karmic habits and do all kinds of good and bad karma. Some people resist the Dharma, slander the Buddha and scold the Sangha, this is a serious karma, and they cannot hear or believe in the true path to liberation and the truth of life in the universe.

The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are compassionate, and they will certainly not blame, but they just hope that they will turn back. But the retribution is self-inflicted. If you just don't believe in the Dharma, but other actions are good, the retribution is not very heavy.

If you not only slander the Dharma yourself, but also prevent others from getting close to the Dharma and pull others along to slander the Dharma, then this sin karma will be serious, and you will also create other negative karma, which is recorded in the Jizo Sutra, and you will fall into the Infernal Hell. Buddhism is compassionate, even if it is a sentient being who has fallen into hell, there is also the king of the earth and the Bodhisattva who is there to save them. But if you don't want to repent and don't want to go back, then the Buddha himself can't be saved.

The six-character name of "Nan no Amitabha Buddha" is the dharani mantra of the Pure Land Sect, and it is the mantra within the mantra. "Amitabha" is the name of the Buddha of the Western Elysium, and the person is called "Amitabha Buddha in the south", no matter how good or bad he is, he has planted a good "Vajra seed" in the heart of the other party, and as long as the opportunity comes, this seed in his heart will grow. And he often recites these six-character names, and when he reads them, he will not only be able to "destroy the eight billion catastrophes of life and death", but he will also be reborn in the Elysian World at the end of his life.

So keep reading"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south"There are only good, no bad.

The Buddha is compassionate and will never feel that you are sinister, so you repent of your disrespect to the Buddha and the Buddha will forgive you.

Nan no Amitabha Buddha is definitely not a curse for bad people, but if you choose it, of course, it should be a blessing for good people.

Nam no Amitabha Buddha copy Buddha is great compassion Buddha will not scold you or curse you Please rest assured that Amitabha Buddha is your self-nature Buddha Self-nature consciousness Self-nature wisdom Amitayus Sutra is well changed and recited Buddha well Walk like Buddha Then your blessed life is immeasurable Nam no Amitabha Buddha Nam no Amitabha Buddha Nam no Amitabha Buddha Nam no Amitabha Buddha.

1.Is the law of cause and effect real?

Truth is true and true, that is, what the Buddha said is born from the mind, and what is thought in the heart will definitely give birth to the appearance of people, things, and things corresponding to this thought. Why do many people don't believe in cause and effect anymore? Because now many people are obsessed with the appearance of people, things, and things.

I don't know that the root of these appearances comes from my own heart. In other words: ordinary people pursue false appearances, and there is no turning back!

2.Aren't you afraid of the retribution of the post-apocalyptic world?

Of course I'm afraid! The reason why I am not afraid is because I am confused and reversed! Make a heart for each other! Delusional attachment to separation! If everyone understands the truth that each other is born from the heart and the situation changes with the heart, there will be no more confusion and reversal! It's the same as the Buddha and the Bodhisattva!

Our Chinese characters are the crystallization of a high degree of wisdom! The word "think" can be used to explain cause and effect, and the top is "phase" and the bottom is "mind". It means that no matter what is good, evil, beautiful or ugly, joy, anger, sorrow, etc., it is born from the heart!

In other words, there is nothing good or bad without a heart! Got it! When we encounter good things, we will not be greedy, because it is the phase in our hearts!

That is, I want to! That is, thoughts! When we encounter something bad, we won't be resentful, because it's still the same thing in our hearts!

Therefore, there is no difference between good and evil, beauty and ugliness, etc., that is to say, the true heart is formless, that is, the emptiness that Buddhism says! Because once you think that the heart has a form, it must be a certain appearance, a certain thought, a certain thought! It's back to the picture, and the confusion is reversed!

If you want to prove your sincerity! Just chant the Buddha! Replace all the appearances, or thoughts, or thoughts, with Amitabha!

Think of the word this way: the upper "phase" and the lower "heart" will be transformed into the upper "Amitabha" and the lower "heart"! Just by the original phase:

Messy thoughts, one thought of Amitabha! It is what the Bodhisattva of the Great Trend said: Take six roots!

Plus the blessing of Amitabha Buddha's original wish! It is to correspond to the sincerity! It is the Western Elysium of the Afterlife!

So the true heart is Amitabha! Completely transform the thinking words of "appearance" and "heart" into a corresponding thought of "Amitabha" and "Amitabha"! Recite the corresponding thoughts, recite the Buddha!

Conditions for going to Elysium: develop bodhichitta + have always been concentrating on Amitabha Buddha so develop bodhichitta: that is, to understand that all "appearances" are born from "mind"!

Born by "Amitabha"! Born by Elysium! I have always been concentrating on Amitabha:

It is to specialize all the "phases" into "Amitabha" Amitabha.
