    First of all, the purpose of not killing is to cultivate compassion, to cultivate the mind, and only when the mind is cultivated can one enter the Tao. Yinguang taught: Knowing what is not possible and trying to do what is possible is the bodhisattva's great compassion.

    If you don't know what you can't and don't quit, you'll become a seed of hell. Therefore, whether to kill or not to kill is just your personal practice, just like some people strive to be a tasteful person, and some people strive to learn the etiquette and upbringing of the nobility, which is an upward and positive pursuit of life.

    Secondly, plants do not belong to sentient beings, and generally speaking, they have no souls, and the few that live on them are also other spirits;

    Also, there are a lot of bacteria and life in the human body, and there is also a lot of life in the water, so is it true that we are constantly creating killing karma? No. To create killing karma, you must first have a killing intent, and without a killing intent, you can't kill karma.

    The highest truth must be that there is no good or evil, so not killing is for the sake of cultivating the mind. But the prerequisite for practice is that you have to survive.

    The wolf eats the deer, the man kills the wolf, and finally the deer dies. Becoming a man, a wolf, and a deer were all created in previous lives, and this is what they are in this life. It is precisely because our whirling world is full of desires, attachments, strife, anger, etc., that such a natural world arises.

    When you see that, you feel like it's the way it should be. So does it mean that Hitler and Japan's invasion of China were correct, and they also pursued the law of the jungle, and it was also for the development of their own country. Shouldn't we be understanding?

    You must know how vast the universe is, and I don't know how many life forms are higher than humans. If you can be reborn in the heavenly realm, you will know how harmonious life is, and as long as you think about it, any delicious food will come to life. This is a blessing for celestial beings because they did good deeds in their previous lives.

    However, Buddhism does not recommend pursuing the heavenly realm of rebirth, because if it is too comfortable in the heavenly realm, it will make people unmotivated, and they will often fall into hell after the blessing is completed.

    In fact, there is no suffering in the first place, and it is precisely because we have too many desires and too many attachments that we feel suffering. To be free from suffering is to pursue the truth, the true meaning of life, or the true desire. Understand why the world was born, why there is life, there are people, etc.

    Elysium is not a lie, but a real existence. Of course, Buddhism also says that everything is like a dream bubble, and this is from the perspective of the end. From the point of view of the ultimate truth, Buddhism believes that the three worlds are one, that is, the past, present, and future are all one, and that space, time, and matter are all illusory.

    Modern science also believes that matter is subdivided into the end, and it is no longer matter, but a vibrating string. Another example is the unified field theory that Einstein pursued all his life, which also believes that the world is composed of a kind of "field". Quantum theory, for example, completely proves the illusory nature of time.

    That's why Buddhism is the truth. Science is the study of the world through external observation, while Buddhism is the observation of the inner world and the understanding of the world. Because the world is inherently one, and when you realize yourself, you can become one with all things.

    Therefore, Taoism also says that refining the void is the unity of the Tao, and the unity of heaven and man.

    I don't know if my idea can be accepted by the landlord. Let me say it briefly.

    1.The main thing about not killing is that we want to have compassion.

    2.Suffering is a grind for us, and it certainly has value. It is by facing suffering and solving problems again and again that we gradually grow up.

    Cooked, isn't it? But how do we feel when we are faced with suffering? At the same time, how can we embrace?

    What about having a stable mood, a clear head, and a relentless ambition to solve the problems we face? Freedom from suffering is teaching us to leave.

    The way of suffering is the attitude towards suffering, the attitude of stabilizing emotions, and the attitude of solving problems. It is not a superstitious quest for one.

    Cut peace, no pain.

    3.Maintaining peace and joy at all times is Elysium.

    Ordinary heart is the way.

    First of all, I believe in Buddhism!

    For not killing, yes! Plants are soulless! Or maybe there is no harm to the soul!

    It's really right not to kill, because people are higher than other animals, and they understand the principle of not killing! If the tiger wolf knew the truth of not killing, they would not be a tiger wolf! If a person understands the principle of not killing, but kills, then he is not human!

    To be free from suffering is to be happy! To be precise, don't get bitterness! Don't have fun! If you want it, you won't get it! So there is no separation! Nothing!

    For Elysium! Yes! As long as your cultivation has reached the state of Nirvana, you can see it!

    The non-killing principle of Indian Buddhism is similar to that of Chinese Buddhism.

    Detachment from suffering: When you are young, there is no need for suffering, no sense of conspiracy, and no need for harm.

    Bliss: Harm to oneself does not exist.

    There is a difference between not killing and being a vegetarian. After quitting killing, the meat can also be eaten.

    Freedom from suffering is just a saying, and the pursuit of bliss is also a kind of attachment.

    But something called religion must have the function of satisfying the psychological needs of ordinary people in order to guide people to stop worrying.

    The deeper it goes, the deeper it becomes, and I don't dare to say it again.

    The stages of Dharma practice are: believing, understanding, acting, and proven.

    Faith refers to true faith, not superstition. Believing what the Buddha said, rather than believing that the Buddha is an all-powerful god is the basic right belief. Faith also means believing in oneself and believing that one will become a Buddha.

    Interpretation means to obtain a correct understanding of the teachings of the Dharma. No one says the Dharma, although wisdom cannot be understood. Therefore, if you want to understand the Dharma correctly, you have to listen to the teachings of the Master.

    Yes, it is to practice according to the method explained. The ultimate goal of Dharma practitioners is to attain the full wisdom of Buddhahood. And the most fundamental way to attain perfect wisdom is to keep the vows.

    The scripture says: "The heart is a precept." Because of the precepts.

    Because of the wisdom of the set. The 84,000 methods of Buddhism are nothing more than precepts, concentration, and wisdom.

    Proving is to prove the Dharma of the Buddha through one's own practice. Passing the certificate can increase credit; Faith can be increased; Solution can promote action; It can be proven. It's a spiraling process.

    Your colleague listens to the scriptures and is an interpretation. Listening to ** can only be said to be relaxing and meditating, not taking the mind as a precaution. There is actually no difference between us ordinary people listening to **, but Buddhist students have special feelings for Buddhism**.

    The ultimate goal of studying Buddhism is to get rid of the suffering of samsara, to go to the Pure Land of Bliss, and to come back to purify all sentient beings after becoming a Buddha, so it's all for others, not for yourself.

    If you plan to practice well, you are a good person, recite the Buddha more, and practice living, sitting, lying down, and changing your habits.

    According to the nineteenth volume of the Ming Sanzang Law [Yuanjue Sutra Banknote] (not the original text of the Yuanjue Sutra), in order to explain and understand the principles of "sexuality" and "emptiness", there are four not to say:

    Fish don't see water: It is said that fish use water as a cave. Swim in the water. Nothing is at stakes.

    People don't see the wind: it is said that the wind originates from all kinds of holes. But there was a noise. And the invisible is visible.

    Blindness: It is the nature of spiritual awareness. Everyone's owned. But for the troubles of ignorance. Lost in it.

    Enlightenment does not see emptiness: It is said that the person who cultivates. I can feel the nature of gnosis. It was empty. And this emptiness is not attainable.

    Tang Yi, the author of the book, may have played it himself, and should "think about it well".

    I believe that if you want to understand a person in reading, you should not only listen to the opinions of others, but should personally contact the source and read and recite the classics. Otherwise, it has already been learned from the color changing mirror or haha mirror, and it is inevitable to have wrong cognitions, mislead others and yourself.

    What to ask? Please explain the problem clearly.

  12. Anonymous users2024-02-04

    Every word is a definition given by people, for example, rice, if it is defined as rice cooked for people to eat, it is something that people eat, but if rice is defined as something that can fill the stomachs of sentient beings, then pig food can also be said to be rice, which is something that pigs eat. If the house is defined as a place for sentient beings to live, then the fish is in the water, and to say that the fish is to use the water as a house. The same is true of the definition of fire.

    There are many theories about this kind of stealing concept, but in fact, it is to illustrate that everything is born in the heart.

    I don't know how old you are, but some things are really irreversible in the phenomenal world. Let's say you've grown up, can you go back to being a baby? Of course not.

    Impermanence is what you mean by variability, you have to see through and don't cling to a certain point, you will know what you already understand, unless you deliberately pretend not to understand. Otherwise, it is impossible to become ignorant again, knowing is knowing, and from a certain point of view, isn't this constant? Oh!

    There may be a situation that you don't understand, that is, you have an accident and hurt your brain. That, too, is impermanent. There is also reincarnation, after the so-called mystery of separation.

    Understand, you don't need others to verify whether you understand, or you don't care about what others think you understand, and you won't change from understanding to not understanding because people say you don't understand, or you will have doubts and think you don't understand. You know all the states yourself, don't you? Isn't this the so-called eternal state of the Buddha?

    Can you say that this is not a kind of eternity? Unless you don't really get it!

    Is there an absolute right and wrong, right and wrong? All I can say is that you're happy. It doesn't hurt me if you say yes or no, and if you say no, you don't. It's called being at ease!

    Change is the eternal truth! This is true in our world. Does this sentence cause you to be conflicted and incomprehensible?

    Sexual emptiness refers to the impermanent existence of the phenomenal world, and still refers to the phenomenal world, and this characteristic of impermanent existence is not also a kind of eternity from some perspectives. The Buddha said that eternity is not eternal is eternal, and your understanding is not wrong, and there is actually no so-called delusion and enlightenment, eternal and impermanent in nature, as you said, life and death are not.

    Second, you and I have not really reached that realm, we can only understand and experience through words, the point is that you don't need to be trapped in this text to trouble yourself, because this problem is not clear and simply do not understand? Because confusion is the same as enlightenment, and life is the same as death. Then don't you do anything?

    Because there is no difference. It is up to you to decide whether it is permanent or not, and you feel it with your heart, but you can't escape the law of cause and effect. It's better to listen to others than to understand it yourself!

    What the Buddha said, sometimes from the standpoint of the Dharmakaya, sometimes from the standpoint of the flesh, sometimes from the phenomenal realm, sometimes from the ontological realm, if this is confused, naturally you will not be able to understand what the Buddha is saying.

    Change is because there is no change, so it is said that change, enlightenment is because sentient beings are still confused, so it is said that enlightenment, the real enlightened person will not say that he is enlightened, and he will not necessarily show that he is an enlightened person, such as people drinking water and knowing themselves, if you are really interested in a ** after all, then it is recommended that you try to accept the way the Buddha said to cultivate, to experience, to verify. I believe that silence is better than sound at this time, bless you!

    Impermanence is permanence, and emptiness is also emptiness.

    There is impermanence, but isn't there nothing in the universe that is unchanging? Of course, there is, and that is the law of "impermanence". The unity of all things is that all things are "impermanent" and constantly circulate.

    However, the realm of impermanence and emptiness cannot be said much, only experienced, only contemplated, and if wisdom is not available, one should not look at the horns of the bull.

    Food can't be cooked and grown" This question reveals the persistence of the landlord. Understand that the so-called impermanence of all laws is not before and after the egg is fried, but between the moment you look at the egg and the next moment. Even when we look at this thing and think it's the same thing as it was last moment, it's still changing.

    Of course, the meaning of impermanence cannot be seen in the physical world, in the physical world, but also in the world of our mind. Because "all things are created by the heart" and "all laws are only knowledge". If everything in the world is created by our minds, then of course what kind of mind makes the world.

    An impermanent world is created by an impermanent mind. Although the ten thousand dharmas are impermanent, if our mind flows with the ten thousand dharmas, then we can only see the impermanence of the world, but if we can observe it with our true heart, then we can see the true meaning behind all impermanence, which is the eternal nature of "emptiness".

    I hope the landlord doesn't mind. The end of the study is ten.

    Since there is impermanence, since there is emptiness, how can there be absolute right and wrong?

    The pure consciousness of a Buddha has no right or wrong, and right and wrong are all attachments and karma.

    In the lower is just unclear, since impermanence, it means changeable. But the sky can turn from white to black, from sunny to cloudy. Clouds can be dispersed from convergence to dispersion. People can turn from joy to anger, from sorrow to peace; Why. For example, food can be changed from raw to cooked, but why can't it be changed from cooked to cooked?

    The theory of the Buddha is to advocate that following the principles of nature is the true Dharma, and to follow nature and understand nature is to understand the meaning of one's own life, which is the path to nirvana.

    For example, "life and death are not two", "confusion is not two", the masters of the past dynasties said, life is like ice, death is like water, can be converted to each other. But why don't you say: Lost like ice, understanding like water?

    Since life and death can be interchangeable, it means that even if you are enlightened, you can't be immutable, right? It is also possible to turn into a mystery eventually. What should be the explanation of this?

    I don't know what you're studying, but the meaning of the above masters is simply that when you realize nirvana, everything will disappear, so nirvana must not change. But what you say about enlightenment is not necessarily constant, because there are big enlightenments, small realizations, things and so on, as long as you don't understand thoroughly, you will continue to change. (In addition, if you look at the scriptures and are confused into this state, it is better to take a look at a passage in the Ahama Sutra "Four Thoughts" is also translated as "Four Thoughts to Stay", you see how the Buddha practiced back then, there were no classics at that time, it is by no means a difficult way to practice, after reading this short place of thoughts, you will no longer be able to turn around, you may also understand what the Buddha's fruit position means!) )
