Respect to others is to be solemn yourself

Master Haitao 2021-10-11

Anyone who can think about others from the perspective of others is compassion.

Everyone, people have this benefit when they are old. At least they are more experienced, care about the east and the west, so Buddhism also hopes that more people will come out to care about society.Everyone, you can do anything. You can set up a station called the food station. You can set up a station called the market chanting, right? You can set up a station called the distribution of magic weapons. You can set up a station called the smoke offering station. Then, with your virtue, you can guide many people and help slowly, so this is very important.Think about what others need in everything. Come now. No matter where you go, you should want to talk about what others need. Don’t highlight yourself. Do you understand?What others are doing, he prioritizes it.Others want to sit in a better seat and let him sit, and I will sit at the end.Others should eat better, eat hotter, give them, I will eat colder.Your name is to start practicing, and we will practice this when we become monks.

Many people don’t understand. If I become a monk and study in Buddhist college, I will take the precepts, which is useless.If you are a real monk, it depends on how you serve others, whether you have helped others pour boiling water, set up tables and wiped the floor, serve monks, and serve old monks very well. Let’s read Buddhist scriptures further.If you can't do this, why don't you talk about learning Buddhism?Master, if you don’t let me study in Buddhist college, wouldn’t you have to study in Buddhist college to penetrate the sutras?Why don't you let me go?Because you have no mentality of serving all living beings, studying in Buddhist college will only hurt you.I think, everyone, this service can be done anywhere, but you must first think about what the other party needs, not what you want.I often say that I am still taking a group to travel abroad, which is also a practice. There are 100 groups in this group, and everyone is thinking and needing what they need, just like what I can do today.

What is the main Dharma?The main Dharma is what everyone needs, what they think in their hearts, what they are most helpful to, it should be helpful to people, it should be helpful to eliminate disasters, it should be helpful to rebirth, and it should be helpful to animals. You should think for them every day, and for sentient beings in the six realms, Om Mani Pame Hum, you can’t just think for yourself, you should think for sentient beings every day, but you should start with the sentient beings in front of you. Everyone, you are a Buddhist today, it is best to go to your house to ask if you are at home, and everyone is welcome to you.I once said that a man came to me and said, Master, I want to become a monk.I went to ask his mother, and his mother said, Master, take him away quickly, he is very annoying at home.

I said, don't want this, I will definitely not want him to come.The man said, Master, my mother agreed, you still don’t agree to me.Your family hates you so much, so you still come to me. Of course, it’s not that I am with you every day, but that’s our apprentices, and everyone is angry to death by you.Because you don’t help cooking at home, don’t want to do anything, and don’t go to work, your mother is almost annoyed by you, and I want to say, OK, Master, you should take him to become a monk.I am not opening an orphanage. Everyone, you want to send your children to you, and people welcomed by schools, families, and society. Do you understand?This is called a Bodhisattva. Everyone, you must be a considerate person.

Being respectful to others is to be solemn yourself.

The higher your status, the more you respect others, so you will be respected in your life, that's that simple.People who highlight your strengths in your life will be humble in the next life, without status or status. Often, as I often say, the chairman and general manager, are actually not as capable as the secretary, right?But he has enough blessings, right?There are all causes and conditions.This is to come from the heart. You must not be proud, so if you are shorter, you should review it. Short people are short because of pride. If a person is tall, he is humble and respectful to others. You must also understand yourself from your appearance, so we must practice hard.Some people say, Master, why do you say I am short? He will turn against me immediately. Do you want to continue talking about it?No need to talk about it.You need to review it even more, thank you for reminding me that I must be more careful.

So be respectful to others.Everyone should start from the heart. Sometimes you can’t visualize yourself. If you see someone, worship him. If you see someone, you will be Amitabha Buddha. You should keep practicing like this, smile, give him something, and slowly visualize him, and then become real and doing it.So I think that if we study Buddhism, we should study this. We should offer to all sentient beings by offering to all sentient beings. This is called learning Buddhism.But you are asked to learn how to offer, how to worship, how to speak the best, and then you must always follow sentient beings and face the masses in the opposite direction.The masses are all Buddhas. For me, all the masses are my parents and future Buddhas. They offer flowers, incense, water, and the best offerings.This is the basics of learning Buddhism, so if a person does not respect others, he will not be able to enter the Mahayana.

If a person who is full of jealousy, does not confess in his heart, and does not speak properly, he cannot be considered a person with good facial features. The correctness of his heart is better than the correctness of his appearance.

By the way, no matter how beautiful or handsome you look on the outside, if you have something bad inside, it is the worst.We Buddhists will look old, it doesn’t matter. The heart is always the most beautiful, right? The older we are, the more beautiful we are, that is, the more beautiful our hearts are.Your face will definitely wrinkle, and even one day you will be reborn, your lotus heart will have a lotus shape, and you will know that you are going to the Pure Land.The face of rebirth is very solemn and very sick. This illness is a karma, and it doesn't matter. Who will not get sick? Which old monk is not sick, and they all left seriously ill. However, the old monk is very solemn. Whether it is suffering from the sufferings of sentient beings or eliminating karma, there are lotus flowers in his heart.What he was thinking about was the accumulated merits of Ommani Padme Hum and Amitabha Buddha, so I think everyone, don’t pay too much attention to appearance. It’s not good if you are greedy for this illusion.

If the heart is right, the complexion will be good. If it is right, the appearance will be solemn. If the heart is not right, you can tell whether it is right by looking at the face.Do you know how to read it? You can read it casually. Nowadays, there are many people who tell fortunes and look at faces, so people like me often look at my appearance, and I sit there quietly and listen to see if people will tell you the shortcomings and tremble.But people have shortcomings, but if we say it well, we must work harder. Therefore, people who don’t say it well are ashamed, sorry, and show their strength.Because people have the side of being careless, if I sit on the stage every day, I will not be careless, do you understand?If a person is careless, he will step down, his feet are sore, and he is lying on the bed in pain. The TV looks pretty good on, but he forgets to read the Buddhist scriptures. The problem will come when you are alone, so you have to face sentient beings. When you face sentient beings, you will be diligent and strictly demand yourself against Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.

Just imagine, everyone has a heart, others are full of love and gratitude, but why are we full of troubles and hatred?

Therefore, to chant the Buddha's name, Buddha means compassion, wisdom, and care for everything. Therefore, I chant the Buddha's name and do not chant your own worries anymore. Therefore, when I see the Buddha, I will kneel down, cry, and be ashamed. The Buddha saves all sentient beings, accepts sentient beings, and be compassionate and humiliate everything.I was suffering from desires, feelings, money, fame and fortune, and I was giving it to sentient beings in this way. I couldn't stand the small illness, so I had to recite the Buddha's name even more, so I learned more about the advantages of others.
