Wake up from troubles
Shanqi is happy in his heart. Master, your kindness and virtue are incredible.What kind of virtue can the disciples receive this great virtue? They are radiant of the mercy of the sun.Shanqi's eyes were warm, and his heart was filled with indescribable warmth, melting all over his body.Good deeds are like dwelling in great meditation, with endless pleasure.This kind of warm joy is a common occurrence recently. Sometimes, in this kind of warm joy, we can stay in the state of happiness without knowing the whole day.
Shanqi thought, I want to do the ultimate benefit cause, but it is not possible without a good teacher. Now my teacher remembers that my disciple has a sincere heart and accepts his disciples with such great convenience, so that many senior brothers will not dream of extraordinary causes and conditions appear before my eyes. I should put life and death aside, meditation diligently, so that I can obtain liberation as soon as possible, and achieve the real benefits of sentient beings.Shanqi thought so, and his mind was calm and calm, and his heart was in the warm joy of gratitude to his teacher.
At this time, Shanqi reflected the broad and boundless merits of his teacher from the inner warmth and joyful intention. From the endless incarnation of his teacher, Shanqi saw the majesty of all Buddhas in the ten directions and three times.With the blessing of your master, you will be happy at this time and your mind will be endless. You will be endless. You will be endless. You will be endless.And this endless wonderful realm, the good fortune seems to be clearly visible, and all of them are reflected in the vast body of the teacher.
From the master's big body appearance, one hidden and another reveals the solemn body appearance of Zen Master Muyuan like his master, and his body appearance appears endlessly before Shan Qi.Shanqi cannot find his place at this time, and a boundless and unavailable Dharma Realm appears in Shanqi's awareness body.
I heard my teacher's compassionate voice in my ears: "Child, all dharmas are convenient, and only the mind can enter.All Buddhas have no peaks, and Amitabha is the most respected.”
In Shanqi's awareness, he clearly distinguishes all of this. In the realm of perception, Shanqi clearly realizes that this is the teacher teaching himself, and in this realm of perception, he should not lose the heart of reciting the Buddha's name.Shanqi's eyes were not before him, and there was no cave, and there was no visible and everything he could see. Only the solemn appearance of Amitabha's body reflected when he was the same as the Zen master's body and the voice of Amitabha's name that permeates the world of perception.The sound like a heavenly woman is reflected in every part of the Shanqi perception realm. All the realms that Shanqi can sense at this time are all the wonderful and solemn body appearances of Amitabha, and all the sounds of Amitabha’s name that reflect and capture each other.Shanqi also wanted to try his best to perceive the distance and nearness of this solemn body, but Shanqi could not distinguish between the solemn body and the different aspects of each other. It seemed that the perceived body of Shanqi was the same body, synchronized, and same-sex. The sound of the name of Amitabha was like the wonderful sounds produced by the wonderful tongue of the heavenly woman, and they all came from the heart without any direction, and they were reflected in the heart.At this time, Shanqi cannot use words to cut off this inner pleasure, cannot find the place of his own physical body, and is filled with joy everywhere...
Shanqi's heart seemed to have a hint of joy that I had made.Am I... the centrality of my reverie is unconsciously moved by it, I finally...
Suddenly, Shanqi was pulled back from the perception world by a heart-wrenching pain. Everything in front of him was no longer there. Without the Buddha's name, everything was presented to Shanqi again. Shanqi's legs were so painful that they could not be said in words. The heart seemed to be tangled into a ball, like thousands of arrows piercing the heart, like thousands of hands tearing the heart.The uneasy appearance that has never been seen before makes Shanqi's physical body feel as if it is in a cold cave. Is it sour?Is it cold?Does it hurt?Shanqi has never experienced the feeling of coldness and sorrow in the heart of the body due to pain.Although Shanqi has had this phenomenon many times in the past, he has never been so confused today.
Shanqi, who was in unbearable pain, missed the warmth around his mother and the friendship between brothers and sisters from time to time.A carefree life around my mother.Shanqi is really a little homesick. Missing her mother always loves to protect her. It’s strange. The more she wants Shanqi’s legs hurt, it hurts like ten thousand needles pricking her heart, and it hurts like an ice man is about to smash.Since the renunciation of renunciation, although I have experienced countless hardships, pains and tortures, I rarely have such feelings, at least I have never said that my heart is uneasy.
Shanqi always felt that what should he think strongly at this time?Now it is no longer the pain of the legs, but the broken heart. Shan Qi can't find any place where the broken heart is, but the mind is distracted and I don't even want to stay here for a moment.Shanqi was sweating coldly, his head was dizzy, and his five inner body was tightly tied, almost at the level of collapse.Shanqi can no longer recite the Buddha's name. What you see in front of you is not a cave, and what you show in your mind is not a boundless holy intention.All are the worldly customs that Shan Qi seems to have forgotten over the years.I was once glad for Shan Qi, and I felt that I could abandon everything I had in the world so quickly. It was an incredible blessing from my mentor.But at this time, Shanqi was full of his parents, brothers, sisters, friends, and his cousin who had always been good to him.Shanqi doesn't want these things, he doesn't want to think about them, but Xin can't make his own decisions.
Shanqi Shen involuntarily got down the stone bench and walked to the entrance of the cave.He looked at the endless mountains in a daze and stared at the green sea pine waves.The sound of Nanyan on her head made Shanqi moisten her eyes."Ao..." The howling of a beast in the distance shocked Shanqi's mind."Shanqi, what are you doing?Why don’t you pray for your mentor?"Shanqi finally knew the complex bondage in his heart just now, the kind of thing that always thinks about something but can't remember it.
Shanqi bowed deeply to the outside of the capital: "Mr.Bless your disciples!Disciples cannot do without your acceptance. If they leave you, they will lose all the interest in liberation;Leaving you, the disciple will not have any slight power of liberation;"But Shanqi's heart was still a little bit one after another, and Shanqi was already awake at this time:
“Pooh!"Shanqi used all his strength, and after a fierce "slap" at himself, he turned around and bowed several times to Zen Master Muyuan who entered the inner cave.Then I thought, “I am so distracted now that I cannot achieve even self-interest.”
Shanqi raised a lot of depression in his heart than the pain and sorrow just now.This is also something Shan Qi has never seen since she started to practice Bodhi. She has always been very confident that she will no longer be transferred by the world. She is twisted into contemplation by all the emotions in front of her.
“Haha, if you want to eat Portugal, you will be sour first, and if you want to eat cherries, you will be greedy first.If you want to practice the great Bodhisattva practice and benefit sentient beings widely, you must first taste the nature of sentient beings. Only by acquiring the mind and karma of all sentient beings, then get out of this manifestation of sentient beings, and then think about how to absorb the mind and karma of these sentient beings, and how to make them all liberation.Only then did the Bodhisattva know where to save sentient beings, how would you save sentient beings?”
Shanqi remembered a conversation between his mentor while chatting with his senior brothers;I remember that it was the first summer when Shanqi arrived at the temple. At that time, Shanqi was still a novice monk (his master had already promised him to stay first and then be slaughtered when the cause and condition is ripe.) is not a formal monk.The weather was very hot that day, and several senior brothers made a vow to do a career that benefits sentient beings. People are sentient beings, but flies and mosquitoes are also sentient beings. What they want to eat but not eat, what they want to drink but not drink, and the food they want to live in one gulp is often at the cost of their lives.Therefore, several senior brothers made a vow to be 7749 consecutive times. Every evening when the mosquitoes get up, they take off their clothes and sit in the haystack to feed the mosquitoes, and make a vow that all the mosquitoes that eat their own blood can eliminate all evil karma they have done in the past, grow good roots, and achieve bodhi early.
Speaking of this, it is still a great cause.I remember that just a few days after Shanqi arrived at the temple, he heard a novice-mi senior brother who worked with him say to him: "Oh, senior brother, do you know that there are so many masters in this temple who have attained fruit. Last year, there was a master who achieved the Arhat fruit because he sacrificed his life to feed mosquitoes. But after achieving the fruit, he didn't know where to go. His supernatural powers are so great!”
It's said that this is the case. This is a senior brother named Guangji. He is an old monk who quietly practiced and sacrificed himself for three years. His whole body was bitten by the mosquitoes, but Senior Brother Guangji sat there motionlessly, like this every day.At first, all the fellow disciples said that he was a heretic. When he walked around the door, his master ignored him. He let him sit wherever he sat, and his master didn't look at him. Sometimes he even scolded him, saying that he was not a good disciple, and he was unique and made a trick to make a name for himself.Until one day, Senior Brother Guangji rose from the haystack, and then slowly fell down, and his body was soaked with mosquito bites.Later, the brothers and sisters rushed forward to ask Senior Brother Guangji to teach him how to feed mosquitoes so that they could achieve success.But Brother Guangji didn't say a word and walked into his dormitory silently. After not seeing Brother Guangji for two or three days, everyone came to his dormitory and found out that the person had disappeared.This is why several senior brothers made the wish to feed mosquitoes in the second year.
That was the third day after several senior brothers made a vow to feed mosquitoes. They all looked anxious and unbearable in the haystack.Some of the senior brothers ran out to ask their mentor;One said, "Master, my disciple suddenly felt that my mother missed me at home."One said, "Master, I miss you very much while sitting there, and I feel very uneasy.""One said: "Disciple is wondering if I practice the Dharma like this, I need to have a body to practice Buddhism. If I feed mosquitoes like this, if I have not achieved anything, there will be no mosquitoes bite to death. How can I benefit sentient beings again?"One said: "Master!When a disciple became a monk, his wife said to the disciple with tears and snot, "It is not easy to stop you if you insist on becoming a monk and becoming a wife, but you have to come back early to be a wife. If you don't go back to be a wife, you will feel resentful.'The disciples have been monks for so many years and have not returned to persuade their wife to study Buddhism. Will she feel resentful?Do you think you should go back to save her from converting to Buddhism?”
After answering the question, the teacher said the above words: "All day, the sentient beings do not see sentient beings, have a rest - hehe, there are so many sentient beings, Bodhisattvas, please work hard to save them!Only by making them honest can they do what is in front of them well, and only by constantly doing what is in front of them well can they do everything well.Bodhisattvas work hard!”
Shanqi recalled his mentor's words at that time, while thinking about his current heart that was hard to control.Shanqi knows that this is the blessing of his master. While his wish to benefit life arises, he allows himself to see the appearance of sentient beings he wants to benefit.
He told himself that Shanqi should follow the blessing of his master, and think about the cause and origin of the great vows of all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas from the various sentient beings he saw and the arising from his heart.It also allows one to constantly understand the nature of the Dharma Realm, the nature and karma of sentient beings, and subdue one's own inverted nature, and let one's mind be like all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and to give rise to the root of great compassion like all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.In order to achieve the ultimate benefit of life, do everything that hinders you.
Shanqi knew that what he had to do at this time was to settle down in this cave of Zen Master Muyuan.He knew that everything that arises in his heart just now is meaningless.It is all caused by complacency when one appears in a warm and happy state.
My teacher once said: "Happiness, anger, sorrow, and happiness are the natural barriers of all Taoism."The teacher also said: "The truth is impermanent, the truth is impermanent, everything is impermanent, and the truth is impermanent, which is the truth of true permanence.If you do a broad career in impermanence and your heart is quiet, it is the foundation of Taoist people!”
At this time, Shanqi's heart became much quieter again, he knew.Parents must repay their kindness, and everything they did before was done so that they could repay their kindness in the ultimate way.He knew that the kindness he wanted to repay was not just the kindness of his parents in this life, but also the kindness of his parents in the past many lives and kalpas, brothers and teachers.And everything that has just happened is just a phenomenon caused by the inverted seeds of the past, a phenomenon caused by the disturbed mind and nature of oneself.
Shanqi is very grateful to his teacher, and he uses this convenience to let himself see the hidden disadvantages in his heart.Shanqi no longer dares to have any arrogance or arrogance.
He returned to the cave and looked at the wild fruit that Zen Master Muyuan gave him.Not big, it is the size of a hawthorn, with thirty or forty pieces.Shanqi was thinking, since I already know today, all thoughts and actions that are not in line with the past and present are not in line with the cause of benefiting sentient beings. Now I am now in a cave of Zen Master Muyuan, remember the Buddha's name with all my heart, and wait for the Zen Master to come out to guide me the ultimate and perfect path of Wood Man.
So, Shanqi tells yourself, Shanqi, from this time, in order to obtain the ultimate benefits to the cause of sentient beings as soon as possible, to fulfill the original Bodhi vow as soon as possible, and to be able to complete the path of Wood Man as soon as possible, you should either chant the Buddha's name directly in this cave, or the merits of the Zen Master Muyuan come out of the inner cave again, even if the impermanence appears, you will never take a step forward in the cave.
After Master Shanqi made such a vow, he sat on the stone bench and prayed to his master to bless him, Master Jingxin Zen Guan, Zen Master, Amitabha Buddha’s unparalleled and solemn realm of refuge...
