Master Huiguang: Only by letting go can you have true merit

Master Huiguang 2020-08-18

Only by letting go can you have true merits--Wish Light and the teachings of the above-mentioned things--If you do not cling to merit, your mind will be pure. The mind, like the truth, is able to correspond to the reality.Because all dharmas are not real, they are just a combination of causes and conditions, so let go after doing it.Letting go is the real merit.If you are not attached, you will not have troubles. If you are not attached, you will not reduce the merits. Instead, you will make your merits complete;Because of attachment, afflictions can increase, and then your merits will be reduced because of afflictions, so that it is originally a perfect merit, but it turns into a miscellaneous merit because of afflictions.The merits are slowly leaking, leaking, leaking, leaking... and leaking until the end is gone.Therefore, when practicing merit, let go after doing it, use merit to cultivate this mind, observe this mind by practicing good deeds, and observe whether our mind corresponds to the Dharma?Correspond to the truth?Therefore, we often say, "I want to dedicate to Anuttara Samyaksambodhi."If you practice good deeds with a mind of gain and a mind of attachment, then it will never be possible to become the resource for Buddha to become a Buddha for countless kalpas.So if you think every day, "I have cultivated a lot of merits", can you help us achieve liberation a little bit?No!Because there are as many troubles and attachments as you have cultivated good deeds, you will have more blessings, and that's all, but you don't have a little more freedom and purity.So we see that there are many people in this world who have blessings, and there are many people in this world who have great blessings, but are they truly happy and have no worries in their hearts?There is a saying in our world: "Every family has its roots and is difficult to recite sutras", so there are still troubles. Although there are great blessings, there are constant troubles. Therefore, after practicing merit, you must learn to let go, and do not attach to that merit, and be humble and soft.This is a true good teacher and a true person who practices the holy path, so he can dedicate to Anuttara Samyaksambodhi.This is the true dedication: May all the merits I have cultivated be dedicated to Anuttara Samyaksambodhi, which means that I may not have any attachment to all the good deeds I have cultivated, and this pure and unobstructed mind correspond to the Buddha's mind, so it becomes more and more like the Buddha.It is easy to say that it is not attached to small places, but it is also not attached to large places, so the merits are even more extraordinary.Therefore, when you practice slowly in this way, the merits and benefits you achieve will be very special.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ◎Excerpted from Huiguanghe's "Liang Huangbao's Repentance" 2024-02-05 18:10
