After the Dharma is destroyed, can the heavenly demons become arhats?

No. Heavenly demons are obsessed with greed and enjoyment, and it is impossible to let go, so there are rare cases of cultivating into arhats.

If the Dharma is gone, the devil will still be a demon, and he will not be able to become an arhat. Plant melons and get melons, plant beans and get beans, you can't say that the melons planted in spring will be beans in autumn, that's impossible. The Qing Dynasty is gone, and the pigs of the Qing Dynasty will become handsome guys, no.

All living beings have the Buddha-nature. This also includes the Heavenly Demons. If the Heavenly Demon can let go of his attachment and let go of this "me", he can also become an Arhat.

No, it can't be.

Jizo Bodhisattva Sutra

If there are sentient beings who pretend to be shamans, whose hearts are not shamans, who use their permanent dwellings, who deceive white clothes, who violate the precepts, and who create all kinds of evil, they should fall into the infernal hells, and they will seek out indefinitely. If there are sentient beings who steal their permanent property, grain, food, clothing, or even anything that they do not take, they will fall into the infernal hell, and they will be eons of eternity, and they will seek it for an indefinite period of time.

Sentient beings must be enlightened to the truth and break delusional attachments in order to become arhats.

There are two ways to become an arhat: first, to break delusional attachments by hearing the Dharma and realizing the truth; 2. Self-awakening (solitary awareness): Enlightenment of truth, breaking delusional attachments.

Sentient beings Heavenly demons can cultivate into arhats through the above two methods. Therefore, after the Dharma is extinguished, the heavenly demons cannot become arhats, but they can also become arhats.

All sentient beings can become arhats, as long as they keep the vows and practice.

Most of the demon kings of the ten worlds are Buddhas and Bodhisattvas

At that time, Vimalaya said to Mahakaya, 'Benevolent! Most of the demon kings in the world of the immeasurable monks of the ten directions live in the inconceivable liberation of bodhisattvas.

The bodhisattva who lives in the inconceivable liberation has the power of virtue, so he persecutes and shows all sentient beings that if it is difficult, ordinary people are inferior and have no power, and they cannot persecute the bodhisattva in this way; For example, the dragon elephant tramples, which is not the ability of a donkey, is the door to the wisdom and convenience of the Bodhisattva who lives inconceivably. ”

---Vimalaya Sutras".

1. An arhat cannot become a Buddha, but a bodhisattva can. The highest attainment of the path to liberation is an arhat, a Hinayana saint who does not want to come to save sentient beings, cannot be called a bodhisattva, and cannot become a Buddha. If you want to become a Buddha, you must follow the bodhisattva path.

2. The attributes of the two are different. An arhat is a sage who practices the Four Noble Truths according to the Buddha's teachings and attains nirvana out of the cycle of birth and death. Bodhisattvas, on the other hand, are both "enlightened beings" and sentient beings who take it as their duty to enlighten others.

3. The vertical and sum methods of the two are different. The highest attainment of the path to liberation is an arhat, a Hinayana sage who does not want to come to save sentient beings. The bodhisattva path from the initial aversion to the great bodhicitta of renunciation, compassion, and empty wisdom can reach the goal of becoming a Buddha after the three great tribulations of the monks.

All sentient beings can become Buddhas, let alone arhats.

Arhats are on the Hinayana path and do not develop bodhichitta, so they do not take the initiative to run out to save sentient beings.

Only when an arhat finally returns from the small to the great, enters the Mahayana bodhi path, and develops bodhicitta will he use the bodhisattva body to benefit all sentient beings.

For example, the Bodhisattva Jizo has also practiced in the Land of the Buddha, which is the Hinayana path, so it is impossible to initiate the vast bodhicitta of not becoming a Buddha in hell to save sentient beings. Only by entering the Bodhisattva path and sending out the supreme Bodhi pinqin and erecting the heart can the breadth of sentient beings lose greatly.

At least he didn't flutter in the sea of desire, so he had to save the people who fell into the water nearby.

If you were replaced, I would also save the sidewalkers.

It's just that the knowledge is limited, and it can't give the ultimate happiness of the people who go ashore. Middle.

The middle way of Huacheng is said to be the Hinayana and the two vehicles from the Han.

It's not like a bodhisattva who is reluctant to save from far and near. And he often jumped into the sea, cruising everywhere and rescuing him, and when he came ashore, he had to give food and clothing, teach him to work, and even all his well-being. Opening paragraph.

It's like a lotus flower that doesn't touch water.

It is also like the sun and the moon not living in the sky.

There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south.

The idea that an arhat cannot become a Buddha exists in Theravada Buddhism, and the chanting of the skin has nothing to do with Mahayana Buddhism.

Mahayana Buddhism generally refers to arhats as self-reliant Hans, but only relatively.

Who told you that an arhat cannot become a Buddha? Don't lie!

Very much in favor of you!

In fact, the path of the Buddha is the Buddha's convenient method, and after the real liberation, all the people who have attained the fruit of the path are the Buddha's fruits, but the Buddha uses different methods to save sentient beings. There is no Mahayana or Hinayana theory, Shakyamuni Buddha made all sentient beings finally realize that the fruit is the fruit of the Buddha, and there is no difference. But in order to take care of the feelings of sentient beings, there are so many methods and names, and if you focus on this sect and this sect, it will be wrong, and the Buddha himself will say that he has no Dharma to say, and he wants everyone to let go.

The Buddha has 84,000 methods, there are Tibet, there are four teachings, there are sutras, there are three Tibetan Buddhism is a very large system, the norms of clothing, food, housing, and transportation, the four seasons of food, astronomy, geography, medicine, music, and so on, etc., and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on If there is a goal, there is the motivation to move forward Of course, may the speed of the great progress be fast On the contrary, in the end, the difficulty of becoming a Buddha has also increased The most famous great wish is the Great Wish Sutra of the King of the Earth The Great and the Small and Small Vehicles are equal, but the size of the vow is not the same This problem must be understood, Simply speaking, the three vehicles of Buddhism are all good practices, all evil is not done, and the meaning of self-purification is all Buddhism, and the four characters of self-purification are a key point, everyone learns Buddhism, and everyone has the goal of being happy, free, liberating, reaching the other side, and breaking away from the six realms, but the self-feeling of happiness and that realm, that level, this is what one's own heart knows I understand my eighth consciousness.

That's true, but what is the purpose of a person who cultivates Buddhism--- if you take Buddhahood as an end, then don't talk about Buddha's heart and Dharma, Buddhahood is just a means, Master Hongyi's handwriting before his death: pain is also happiness. If you have succeeded in cultivating the Buddha's mind in the midst of suffering, and have discovered the Tao that you have been pursuing, you have become a Buddha, so why bother cultivating an arhat --- take this as the highest goal.

It is difficult to understand, the Buddha said: All the Dharma is like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, and it should be viewed as such. Hold on to one heart, and see the same with the three thousand worlds!

84,000 Methods Corresponding to 84,000 Afflictions Why do you have to be attached to practicing the Buddha Actually, there are many ways to learn the Dharma, but there is only one purpose, they are all empty. You can find the one that suits you I prefer the Pure Land Method practiced by Master Pure Space Haha Take karma to learn Buddhism I am a mortal and do not have too high a realm As the so-called diligent and frequent wiping No need to stir up dust If you have sinned, you have changed I've changed I'm guilty Little by little, don't learn Buddhism and be fascinated by learning Remember that learning Buddhism is happy.

Idealism. What is the use of Buddhism? Can it save the world? Crossing oneself or crossing others? How many people has the Buddha crossed since entering the Central Plains? Don't say that you don't want to take refuge in my Buddha. Can a Buddha have great supernatural powers only for those who take refuge?

A Buddha can manifest himself as an arhat. Put it this way.

An arhat cannot manifest as a Buddha ......
