Why does Buddhism want to cultivate merit, why do we want to cultivate virtue?

Merit is to see that nature is merit, and equality is virtue. The goal of Buddhist practice is to see nature, that is, to see the true Buddha nature, and if you can experience the true Buddha nature, this is the work. It is true that there are immeasurable merits in Buddha-nature, and practicing these merits is the so-called virtue.

The bodhisattvas of the first place realized the true Buddha nature and practiced the merits of the true Buddha nature, so the bodhisattvas began to practice merit from the first place.

AmitabhaOnly merit can liberate oneself from birth and death, transcend the six realms of reincarnation, and become a Buddha.

Fortune can only be enjoyed within the six realms, and there is always one day to enjoy it.

Old Master--- many, many people have even misunderstood that good fortune is regarded as merit, and good fortune and merit are two different things, you must know this. Master Huineng, the sixth ancestor, said in the "Altar Sutra" that this matter "cannot be saved". What is this matter?

Merit saves.

Merit is not the same as merit, is it not the same? Merit is a merit, and cultivating merit is merit. "Merit" is not the appearance, "the outside is not the appearance, the inside is not moving", that is the merit.

Summary. The purpose of cultivating virtue is to improve one's moral character and personality quality. Through the cultivation of virtue, we can develop our inner cultivation and cultivate good character and values, so as to get along better with others and establish harmonious interpersonal relationships.

Cultivating virtue can also make us more self-disciplined, more respectful of others, more able to make informed decisions, and more positive in the face of challenges and difficulties. In general, the purpose of cultivating virtue is to cultivate an individual with quality, sentiment and responsibility, who can make a positive contribution to society.

Can you add, I don't quite understand it.

Cultivating virtue improves personal quality and literacy, cultivates and cultivates good character and values, and establishes harmonious interpersonal relationships. It can also enhance self-purity and judgment, respect others, make informed decisions, and actively respond to challenges and difficulties. The goal is to cultivate individuals with quality, sentiment and responsibility, and contribute to society.

Cultivating Buddhism will eventually be liberated, but not everyone is seeking their own liberation, some people are seeking to help sentient beings to be liberated, just like why Lu Xun wrote "The Scream", Mr. Lu Xun is not shouting to himself, but wants to wake up those who are sleeping in suffering and do not know it, Buddhism is not self-interest but altruism, the original meaning of the Buddha is the enlightened, the study of Buddhism is to be enlightened, aware, clear mind, sentient beings in the six realms of reincarnation, do not know that these phases are empty, empty, and suffering, thinking that there can be eternity, Attachment to oneself, thus being violated by all kinds of troubles without knowing it, just like the decline of social morality now, most people think that it is normal to compete for fame and fortune, and it is not uncommon for parents and brothers to go to court because of property or some selfish reasons, but these people in this troubled world are accustomed to it, how is this kind of society, but when a child asks, he will say that society is like this, and those who practice in Buddhism will understand that it is precisely because of people's troubles and habits. People don't know that they have found trouble for themselves, and they can know by studying Buddhism and attaining enlightenment, so that they can be like Mr. Lu Xun's "The Scream" to wake up the world and save the world.

Confucianism says that "the sage is not the only one who has the heart, and the sage can not lose his mind", Buddhism says that "all sliving beings have Buddha nature", and the practitioner's own obligation should be to benefit all sentient beings and help all sentient beings find their original hearts, and according to different people, different opportunities, the heart of contact with the Dharma is also different, some people initially want to find out the truth and contact the Dharma because they see the suffering and impermanence of the world. Some people come into contact with the Dharma because they feel something very distressing and seek liberation, some people know that the Dharma can save the world and are willing to spend their lives supporting the Dharma and promoting the Dharma, so that they can come into contact with the Dharma, and even some people are just curious about the vast amount of Buddhist wisdom and scriptures, and not every practitioner's original intention is the same.

For me, studying Buddhism is a real happiness, a happiness that transcends the general perception of feelings, just like saying that many people want to be free and always feel unfree, even if they don't have anyone else to look at them, they feel unfree and uncomfortable, but in fact, the most real freedom is not in the feelings, but in the transcendence of feelings, in the self-release of oneself.

Cultivating Buddhism is to let everyone know cause and effect, and know good and evil. Let everyone understand the cause and effect method of good retribution and evil retribution. In this way, sentient beings will be able to stop all evil and cultivate all good.

If we stop evil, we will not create negative karmic causes, we will be free from all afflictions and sufferings, and if we cultivate goodness, we will plant good roots and good causes, and our future life will be better and better, and we will be happy.

This is the principle of cultivating Buddhism, which is very simple.

Only by practicing Buddhism can you become a Buddha.

Is it true that every practitioner has the original intention of reading more Buddhas and reading more scriptures of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.

The important thing is to realize the mind of the Buddha Amitabha.

Because life is too bitter, the six realms of reincarnation are too bitter, and there are not many people who feel suffering, and there are very few people who understand this truth, and they are all taking suffering as pleasure and not realizing it. Only by becoming a Buddha can we break the root of life and death forever.

Most of the original intention of cultivators is not to seek liberation from birth and death, and if there is such a thing, then it is really to be admired. Every student encounters all kinds of problems on the road of life, which are difficult to interpret, do not understand, and have troubles, and only then does he enter this Buddhist sect, and he or she begins to seek wealth, marriage, longevity, smooth work, health, and examination,。。 Slowly dig deeper, understand the truth, the truth of life in the universe...

After studying deeply, there is almost nothing to ask for...
