What is the understanding of the three thousand Buddhas and boundless bodhisattvas in Buddhism?

On the one hand, this sentence means that there are countless Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the Ten Directions Buddha Kingdom, and the implication is that all living beings have Buddha nature, and they can all become Buddhas and Bodhisattvas through practice.

The central content of the Lotus Sutra is the manifestation of the idealism of all laws, so that all laws are one (one mind), and there is no one who is not who.

The heart is the perfect mind, the heart is the Buddha, and there is no difference between the heart, the Buddha, and all sentient beings, so all the Dharma is a Buddha! So the three thousand Buddhas are boundless bodhisattvas! Three thousand and boundless both mean immeasurable.

The ten directions are empty, and the land of the Buddhas is immeasurable and boundless, so in the world of the ten directions, the Buddhas are also immeasurable and boundless.

One Buddha world, that is, there are immeasurable and boundless bodhisattvas around the Buddha, listening to the Buddha's teachings, not to mention the number of Bodhisattvas in the immeasurable Buddha land of the ten directions.

The Buddha is the same, the Dharma is the same, the Buddha is the Dharma, the Dharma is the Buddha, there is no difference. When it comes to status, it is the knowledge of ordinary people.

Buddhism is not a religion, and Buddhism is a mistaken recognition of Buddhism by secular people.

Everyone is a future Buddha. Of course, the total number of people who have become Buddhas in the past is actually more than 3,000.

Anyone who has read the Great Prajna Sutra knows that there are countless Buddhas in the ten directions.

Buddhism is polytheistic, but it is also atheistic, and everyone is equal. If the true nature of the true heart can be corrupted, hell will also become a void, with no place to settle and no good use.

In fact, there are no 3,000 Buddhas, but they were established when my Buddha was enthroned. In fact, there are only five Buddhas: "Nan no Amitabha Buddha", "Nan no Buddha Shakyamuni Buddha", "Nan no Medicine Master Liuli Light Rulai", "Nan no Burning Lamp Ancient Buddha", "Nan no Maitreya King Buddha", all of them are in charge of the world of bliss, the world of glass, the world of achievement, the world of treasures, and the world of sava.

In the past, a thousand Buddhas were solemnly robbed, a thousand Buddhas are robbed now, and a thousand Buddhas are robbed by the stars in the future. The Buddhist scriptures have the names of these three thousand Buddhas. I'm using my mobile phone to surf the Internet, and I can't type them out one by one.

Theravada Buddhism believes that there is only one Buddha, Shakyamuni. Mahayana Buddhism believes that everyone can become a Buddha, which means that there are countless of them.

The number of bodhisattvas is also very large. In Chinese Mahayana Buddhism, the four bodhisattvas are represented by:

Guanyin Bodhisattva: represents great compassion and takes Putuo Mountain as the dojo.

Jizo King Bodhisattva: On behalf of the great wish, Jiuhua Mountain is the dojo.

Manjushri Bodhisattva: represents great wisdom and takes Mount Wutai as the dojo.

Fuxian Bodhisattva: On behalf of the great line, Mount Emei is the dojo.

The question you are asking is difficult to answer.

Let's just talk about the Buddha, there are three Buddhist scriptures, and the number of records in each book is 1,000.

In the past, the solemn robbery of a thousand Buddhas' famous scriptures is a volume, "the present virtuous robbery of a thousand Buddhas' famous scriptures is a volume", "the future stars are robbing a thousand Buddhas' famous scriptures a volume".

An excerpt of one of the 100 Buddhas in the "Now Virtuous Tribulation of a Thousand Buddhas' Famous Sutras".

Nam Mu Sun Buddha Nam Mu Nahamuni Buddha Nam Mu Ka Ye Buddha Nam Mu Shakyamuni Buddha Nam Mu Maitreya Buddha Nam Mu Master Buddha Nam Mu Ming Flame Buddha Nam Mu Mui Buddha Nam Mu Myohua Buddha Nam Mu Fahrenheit Buddha Nam Mu Good Buddha Nam Mu Guru Buddha Nam Mu Big Arm Buddha Nam Mu Dasu Buddha Nam Mu Medicine Buddha Nam Mu Ming Buddha Nam Mu Ming Buddha Nam Mu Flame Shoulder Buddha Nam Mu Zhao Yao Buddha Nam Mu Rizang Buddha Nam Mu Yue Buddha Nam Mu Flame Buddha Nam Mu Good Buddha Nam Mu Worry-free Buddha Nam Mu Tisha Buddha Nam Mu Ming Buddha Nam Mu Holding Buddha Nam Mu Meritorious Buddha Nam Mu Manifestation Buddha Nan Mu Lamp Yao Buddha Nam no Prosperity Buddha Nam no Medicine Buddha Nam no Good Buddha Nam Mu Baihao Buddha Nam Mu Solid Buddha Nam Mu Fu Wei De Buddha Nam Mu Incorruptible Buddha Nam Mu Virtue Buddha Nam Mu Rahu Buddha Nam Mu Lord Buddha Nam Mu Sanskrit Buddha Nam Mu Jianji Buddha Nam Mu High Buddha Nam Mu Zuoming Buddha Nam Mu Dashan Buddha Nam Mu Vajra Buddha Nam Mu Sho Buddha Nam Mu Dreadnought Buddha Nam Mu Treasure Buddha Nam Mu Hua Ri Buddha Nam Mu Junli Buddha Nam Mu Incense Buddha Nam Mu Benevolence Buddha Nam Mu Great Buddha Buddha Nam Mu Brahma Buddha Nam Mu Immeasurable Buddha Nam Mu Longde Buddha Nan Mu Jianbu Buddha Nan Mu Seeing Buddha Nan Mu Virtuous Buddha Nan Mu Good Keeping Buddha Nan Mu Joy Buddha Nan Mu Retreat Buddha Nan Mu Master Buddha Nan Mu Shengzhi Buddha Nan Mu Shi Buddha Nan Mu Xi Wang Buddha Nan Mu Miao Yu Buddha Nan Mu Love Buddha Nan Wu De Arm Buddha Nan Mu Xiang Buddha Nan Mu Guanshi Buddha Nan Mu Yunyin Buddha Nan Mu Shansi Buddha Nan Wu Shanshan Buddha Nan Mu Daimyo Buddha Nan Mu Zhu Bun Buddha Nan Mu Mighty Buddha Nan Mu Shizi Roaring Buddha Nan Mu Deshu Buddha Nan Mu Huan Shi Buddha Nan Mu Hui Ju Buddha Nan Mu Anju Buddha Nan Mu Intentional Buddha Nan Mu Yang Gadha Buddha Nan Mu Wonderful Buddha Nan Mu Duozhi Buddha Nan Mu Light Buddha Nan Mu Staunch Buddha Nan Mu Auspicious Buddha Nan Mu Baoxiang Buddha Nam no Lotus Buddha Nam Narayan Buddha Nam Mu Anle Buddha Nam Mu Zhi Ji Buddha Nam no Virtue Respect Buddha.

Buddhas are all cultivated by bodhisattvas who practiced the bodhisattva path in the past, so you can imagine the number of bodhisattvas.

To put it simply, the void is boundless, the world is boundless, the world is boundless, all beings are boundless, all beings are boundless, the bodhisattvas are boundless, the bodhisattvas are boundless, and the Buddhas are boundless.

The landlord can read the "Datong Fangguang Repentance and Destruction of Sins and Solemn Buddhist Sutra", which is also called "The Great Liberation Sutra" in Tibetan

There are records of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas mentioned in it (only mentioned by Shakyamuni Buddha), and the names of the three Buddhas and the names of the Bodhisattvas are briefly mentioned. If the landlord is interested, count it yourself.

The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the Ten Directions are immeasurable.

I have seen tens of thousands of ...... just by the Buddha name

And for each Buddha name, there are many Buddhas with the same name, a few thousand with the same name, and a few hundred thousand or even many Ganges sands.

Only Mooney has a real identity, and everything else is illusory.

Buddhism has had a profound impact on Chinese culture, but today's Chinese folk Buddhism is very different from the Buddhism founded by Shakyamuni. In fact, Shakyamuni was a saint, a great thinker, who claimed to be a man, not a god, and he did not worship God, nor did he allow believers to worship idols.

However, after his death, he was deified by posterity, and his teachings were distorted. Dr. Leung explained that Shakyamuni did not compile his own teachings during his lifetime, and that the original Buddhist scriptures were passed down orally from generation to generation by followers rather than written down, and were not collected until 500 years after his death.

Buddhist scriptures that have been passed down orally for 500 years will inevitably have distortions and deviations, and more importantly, some believers add their own understandings and teachings in the oral transmission process, resulting in the vast number of Buddhist scriptures today, the content is different, and even contradictory in many places. It can be seen that the Buddhist scriptures today are no longer the teachings of Shakyamuni. ”

Another "creation" of folk Buddhism is the bodhisattva. Shakyamuni did not mention "Bodhisattva", and the statue of Bodhisattva enshrined in the temple is even more contrary to Shakyamuni's teachings. The Buddhist Emperor Ashoka ordered the eradication of 18,000 idols, because the devout Ashoka knew that idolatry was contrary to the tenets of Buddhism.

As for the Guanyin Bodhisattva, which is widely believed by the Chinese people, it has been continuously "modified" by later generations. Dr. Leung said that Guanyin is a new deity that Buddhists assemble from India to be a god of compassion and freedom, and that Guanyin was originally a man with a beard, but was later changed to a woman by Chinese Buddhists. It can be seen that Guanyin is just a product of posterity.

And the so-called bodhisattva manifestations are the work of evil spirits. ”

Uncountable, inexhaustible, immeasurable.

It is a superstitious saying that the Bodhisattva is an immortal. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are human and heavenly teachers.

One, Buddhas are all equal.

Hehe, Buddhism doesn't say that.

Fundamentally speaking, there is no difference between people who practice a certain realm, because all beings are one, and there is no difference.

But it's different for us mortals, because we mortals still have distinctions. The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have different vows due to the land, so the methods of taking the lives of the people are different, such as Guanyin Bodhisattva following the sound to save suffering, such as Amitabha Buddha Bliss Reception, such as the Jizo Bodhisattva Underworld Pulling Out Difficulties.

In addition to the original intention of recalling the Buddha with sincerity and respect, there is also the meaning of fulfilling the wishes of the Buddha and the Bodhisattva, such as reciting Amitabha Buddha to survive in the Pure Land, and reciting Maitreya Buddha to live in the Pure Land.

Many people worship Dover, just with the mentality that eggs cannot be put in one basket, hoping for blessings in many aspects.

However, Venerable Yinguang once taught that it is better for ordinary people with karma to recite one Buddha exclusively, and it is best to be Amitabha Buddha for the last beings in the world of sampa, because the Pure Land method is simple and easy to do, and the world of bliss is very solemn. Reciting the name of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, one can follow the sound to save suffering, and the other Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva will also help you to be reborn in bliss - so you have to know why you are reciting the Buddha. If you recite too many Buddhas, Medicine Buddha, Maitreya Buddha and Amitabha Buddha, we can't concentrate on it, and we chant Buddha so scatteredly, in the end, we may not get it, so it is better to turn to Amitabha Buddha with all our hearts.

The Buddhas of the Ten Directions and the Three Buddhas share one Dharma Body, one is everything, everything is one, and the name of one Buddha and the name of all the Buddhas of the Ten Directions and the Three Buddhas are one and not two, the same, no different.

For example, you recite Amitabha.

Visualize Amitabha Buddha as the aggregate and ontology of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the Ten Directions and the Three Worlds, and recite Amitabha Buddha in this way, and reciting one Buddha in this way is equivalent to reciting the Bodhisattvas of the Ten Directions and Three Worlds.

Why bother doing this, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the Ten Directions and the Third World are one and not two, they are one, there is no difference, and there is no difference.

The 84,000 methods are nothing more than diligent cultivation of precepts and wisdom, and the elimination of greed and hatred. From this point of view, reciting the Buddha is no different from the function of reciting a broom.

Why do you want to chant Buddha? Whichever method you cultivate, you will strictly follow which method you cultivate, and don't take advantage of it!

The avenue is straightforward and simple, there are 10,000 in one, there is one in 10,000, reciting the name of a Buddha in the ten directions, reciting the name of the Buddha in the ten directions and the same Buddha name, do not entangle between the numbers of one or ten, read not the recitation is the heart of the present moment, the same Buddha and the same compassion of the Buddha of the ten directions, and the same sentient beings in the Dharma realm. Reciting the Buddha is to see the root of love extinguished, the troubles of life and death are all gone, and the great wisdom of life and death is born, and the common love is the same as the wisdom of the circle, which is guided by the prajna and the pure land. The Pure Land is ten directions, and there is a fate to lead.

Ten thousand Buddhas have different names, the same virtue and the same origin, don't speculate on the holy will with your own opinions, and the first precept of the Mahayana Buddhism Bodhisattva vows praises and destroys him. The Lotus Sutra of Buddhahood says that if a person scatters his mind and enters the tower temple, he is called the Buddha in the south, and they all become Buddhas.
