Pure Land Dharma: Don’t make mistakes in the meaning of practice

Towards the Pure Land 2024-08-01

1.What is practice? Correcting wrong behaviors is called practice.In the past, we did not come into contact with Buddhism, and no one explained to us the great principles of the universe and life and the truth of the universe and life. Therefore, our ideas and views are wrong, and our statements and practices are wrong. This is a wrong behavior.Wrong behavior brings the consequences of the six realms and three paths, and wrong behaviors realize this state; now we understand and realize, and correct these wrong behaviors.We must rely on the correct and wrong standards, so we must establish firm faith in the Dharma.Buddha is a person who has experienced people. If we don’t believe in the words of the person who has experienced people, who has believed? Therefore, all the sutras spoken by the Buddha are the standard of our practice.Our thoughts, opinions, words, and behaviors correspond to what the classics say. This is good and correct. If it does not correspond to what the classics say, we must be enlightened ourselves, and we are wrong.If you are wrong, you should correct it quickly. This is called practice.

2.Therefore, when practicing, fellow practitioners should remember that it is not about how many sutras are recited, how many Buddha's name is recited, how many big heads are bowed every day. No, that is not practice.What can I say about that practice? Believe in religion.The Buddha has four sutras, "doctrine, practice, and fruit", and you only have one; you also have one method of practicing yourself, "faithfulness, understanding, practice and verification".

3.I believe in religion, do not understand the principles, and do not practice practice. Although I recite scriptures and Buddha every day, I still think randomly, and do some things that harm others and benefit myself.Not only do you not get the merits and benefits mentioned in the Buddhist scriptures, you are still committing sins.Therefore, if you believe in religion, you need to understand it; if you understand it, you need to practice it; only then can you practice it; practice will work.Even if you do not attain the fruit of your practice, you will definitely not fall into the evil path.If you are truly practicing, if you have not reached the level of your practice, you will attain the fruit of your achievements. If you have not reached the level of your practice, you will receive blessings from humans and gods even if you do not attain the fruit of yourselves. This is definitely reliable.

4.Therefore, practice is the third stage in our entire learning process.The first stage is to believe in religion and believe in the teacher's teachings; the second stage is to understand the truth; the third stage is to practice; and the fourth stage is to attain the fruit.The Buddha’s teachings, practice and fruits, our own kung fu is faith, understanding, practice and verification, which is diligence.This diligence is different from the diligence of the five powers mentioned above. It is about the general method, which is about specialization.If you choose a method, you choose a scripture, and you will go deeper. This diligence means this.Whether we can achieve success in our practice in our lives is the key to whether we can achieve success, and the four keys are "diligent practice".

5.You must understand that Buddhism often talks about enlightenment, and often talks about enlightenment. What is enlightenment? What is enlightenment? Knowing one's own problems is called enlightenment, which is called enlightenment; correcting one's own problems is called practice, which is called kung fu.These nouns and terms cannot be misinterpreted or deviations cannot be resolved. We find that many people talk about practice, thinking that practice is to eat vegetarian food, and eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddha's name is called practice. This is a big misunderstanding.Eating vegetarianism and chanting Buddha's name is like practicing. He still doesn't know whether he is practicing.

6.True practice and true skill, you may not necessarily eat vegetarian food and recite the Buddha's name.There are too many Buddhist methods, and chanting Buddha's name at 84,000 methods is just one of them. If you don't use this method, you are practicing.Therefore, we must correctly understand and correct our wrong thoughts and behaviors, and go deep into one thing, which is truly diligent.

7.So you will understand what is the best blessing in the world and beyond? Practice and correct your wrong behaviors are true blessings.A true practitioner, the Buddhas protect you.The five eyes of all Buddhas and Tathagatas are bright. As I told you earlier, there is nothing that cannot be seen or heard in the entire universe and the Dharma Realm.If you truly have the intention to practice, the Buddhas will protect you, the dragon, heaven and gods will support you, even those demons and ghosts will admire you and respect you. You are amazing, he will not dare to provoke you.If a true practitioner has monsters and monsters to disturb you, you can imagine what kind of kung fu you? Even monsters and monsters look down on you, you can imagine how good your kung fu is.People who are really good at kung fu, demons and monsters respect you, and even enemies and creditors dare not provoke you. These things are not difficult for us to understand.
