There are four ways to recite the Buddha: first, recite the Buddha with a name, smell the name of the Buddha, and concentrate on it. Second, look at the Buddha statue, erect a Buddha statue, pay attention to it, and third, look at it. Look at the Buddha statue with my eyes. Fourth, the reality is to read Buddha, that is, to read self-nature, and the Dharma Body is the true Buddha. These four kinds of chanting Buddha have different names and shallow meanings. In this chapter, chanting Buddha means chanting Buddha has a name, and there are two kinds of ideas: chanting Buddha has the heart of chanting Buddha's name, attaching to Buddha wholeheartedly, and the heart cannot be separated from Buddha. I often show people that the way to think is that there is only Buddha in the heart, but there is no intention outside the Buddha. I read my mind, I read my mind. Every word begins in my heart, every word comes out of my mouth and every word comes out of my ear. If you read the Dharma, you won't faint. You just read it one by one without interruption. If you read for a long time, your mouth will be very dry, but your mind can't read and your mouth can't read. There are also two metaphors to describe the method of chanting Buddha: first, when a cat catches a mouse, it is full of energy and its hair stands upright. Be like a chicken with an egg, put down all thoughts, drink and peck and forget. If you can recite Buddha in this way, although it is a question of thinking, it is not only a necessary death, but also possible to realize rationality. For example, the empty valley Zen master said,' You don't have to read who the Buddha is. If you just read it, you will know the sun. Idealists don't have to stop talking. They just need to say "Amitabha", that is, they can read minds. Without Buddha, the heart is Buddha. Without Buddha, they can recite Buddha, that is, the heart is the heart. Both can die, and the heart is consistent with the Buddha. This is the middle way and the rational Buddha. Read Buddha all day, no Buddha all day, no Buddha all day, read Buddha all day; If you say you have something, you can read your mind, but you can't get it. The name of the Buddha you read is not true. If the words are empty, you can read your mind, your mind is not ignorant, and you can read Buddha vividly. If your chanting is empty and you have no position, and your heart is the same as that of Buddha, then your chanting has a name, which is related to reality. Although the four kinds of chanting, the back is deeper than the front, the concept is successful, and the front is also thorough.
Samadhi: It's Sanskrit, and this cloud is correct, that is, one mind is not chaotic, and chanting Buddha is successful. There are also things that specialize in chanting Samadhi. They specialize in chanting Samadhi. What is samadhi? It is said that chanting Buddha can cross three realms and lead to life and death, that is, I am convinced that I am willing to live in pure land, concentrate on thinking, understand sentences, keep thinking, walk, live, sit and lie down, but there is only one thought, or even two less thoughts, that is, one thought, but not all thoughts, and I am not confused by internal and external conditions. For example, the definition of Cheng Youguang says:' Idle and lonely, the only heart; Trouble is in the crowd, but with one heart; It is also right to slander the interests, good and evil, and people's hearts. It was quick and not thorough in theory, but it was realized with confidence and for no reason; But it is a fixed door, without wisdom; You can only lie down, but you cannot break it; In the pure land of death, among the nine lotus products, it is in the third product. Based on skills, it is divided into upper, middle and lower; Inferior products are produced by those unreasonable and unspecific people.
What is samadhi? It is said that the method of reciting Buddha is the most profound and wonderful Zen method, that is, when reciting Buddha, you can observe it carefully, feel like a Buddha, do whatever you want, take photos often in silence, and have no brains. Knowing that Buddha is the heart, the heart is the Buddha, and the heart is the Buddha, you can die, but you are silent. Zhan Ran lives forever. This is not a question of specialization, but a concept of pure cultivation. It is a question of observing its success and seeing its truth, which is taken by Huimen. I want to settle down at the same time, live in the pure land of idealism and see my Amitabha. Go to Pure Land, in the third grade. Life determines life, whether to go or not. There is no reason not to be together when you are happy for thousands of miles.
In short, chanting Buddha without phase means chanting Buddha's name first, and then listening again and again until you can recite it. The Buddha's name you read fell for a while and the earth sank. Before the truth is revealed, you can see the truth from your heart, which is what Zen says. In the future, I will definitely become a self-Buddha. Remembering the state of mind is the general trend of Bodhisattva's so-called "taking all six paths, and net thoughts come and go". Pure reading is true reading, and true reading is no reading. Before the real thoughts appeared and the Buddha appeared, the pure thoughts came one after another. It is not a name called network thought. So there is a saying called "thinking about awakening the protagonist", which means this.
When the flowers bloom, the Buddha realizes that there is no life, which does not mean that he will go to heaven. In the lotus, the lotus is in full bloom and comes out to see the Buddha. This is inferior and inferior. When you were alive, the Buddha was really chanting. The eighth consciousness broke free from the bondage of the flesh and the world. When you come out to see yourself, you feel bright, see your dharma body and close it, that is, you will see the Buddha.
I'm reading Lao Yin's Wu, especially Wu Xin Jian Xing. Brother has a chance to see for himself. In fact, at the end of the practice, you will find that Zen is pure and intensive. It is the same truth, telling you to see your own nature and the Buddha in your heart. since the enlightenment is self-conscious. If you can really recite Buddha like this, you have to sit on the throne of Purple Lotus. amitabha
