Are there really ghosts in the world? I didn't believe it at first, but later I did.

Because you have a big temper when you are a man, it's hard to become a ghost after death.

Burning day and night, never ending.

198/kloc-0 opened on February 5, 2008.

There are many kinds of ghosts, and most people think that ghosts are ferocious and terrible, but they are not necessarily. Sometimes ghosts can become people. At first glance, they think they are individuals, but in fact they are ghosts. If you are a person with five eyes open, ghosts can't fool you. Ghosts can become animals, such as horses, cows, sheep, dogs, fish, rabbits and so on. Why can it be changed? Because he has an avatar. Or become ants, mosquitoes, flies, birds, bees and so on. For example, in spring, flowers are in full bloom, and a group of bees collect honey, many of which are incarnations of ghosts. There are real bees and fake bees in the flowers. Real bees are rewarded according to their transactions, while fake bees change. They eat stamens and drink flower dew everywhere. So don't think that ghosts must be invisible. You meet him every day, and you don't know him yet! The so-called "I don't know Guanyin on the other side" can also be said: "I don't know ghosts on the other side! 」

Now someone says, "Master, I really can't believe what you said!" Hey! You just don't believe it. Why do you say "unbelievable"? I didn't force you to believe it. I just told you the truth, so you should be vigilant and don't bump into ghosts every day. Someone said, "ouch! Master, you scared me to sleep at night. " Then don't sleep at all, just practice samadhi.

If I tell the truth, you will not believe me, so don't tell the truth; So, is this a lie? No, not to mention lies. Tell less truth, let alone tell lies. People won't believe you when you tell too many facts.

Moreover, monsters will become all kinds of animals. Remember 1976, when we first moved to the holy city of ten thousand buddhas, a layman bought a group of turtles and set them free? One of the turtles turned over and landed on all fours. Von Von lay was there. He saw a man in green and asked him for help. Feng Feng Nai looked around and found that it was the tortoise that turned it over. Look. That turtle is also spiritual, so he knows how to ask Fengfeng for help. Over the years, no one has paid attention to this matter. But from now on, we should know that all living beings have their own families. This is the truth that birds of a feather flock together, and that birds of a feather flock together to show people by their species.

Now, when we study shurangama mantra carefully, we know that ghosts are different in shape, and they all come from feeling, and each has its own appearance. There are many names of ghosts and gods in shurangama mantra, including hag ghost (evil god), Luo Cha ghost (terrible ghost), ghost keeper, corpse keeper, Vishnu ghost (ghost), pigeon dish tea (urn-shaped ghost), GREAT GHOST, jumping ghost, smelly ghost and Fu Ling.

I didn't know there were so many ghosts before I heard about shurangama mantra. I didn't know until I heard it. There are so many kinds of ghosts! Of course, there are more ghosts than people Man-made crimes, they fell into ghosts and could not extricate themselves. When the Buddha was alive, he once grabbed a handful of soil and asked his disciples, "Do you think there is more soil in my hand or the earth?" The disciple said, "Of course, there is a lot of soil, but there is very little soil in the Buddha's hand. Buddha Nai said, "If you get one person, you will get dirt in your palm. "People who lose their lives are like the earth." There are as many people who have lost their lives as the earth. So what if you lose your life? Of course, I'm going to be a ghost Do you still have to ask? Therefore, there are more ghosts than people, even if you use a computer, you can't count them unless you use a "god brain"; Shennao, also known as "Tiannao". Someone said, "When did you invent this' Tiannao'? I didn't invent this. Go to the sky if you don't believe me. It exists naturally.

This brain doesn't need someone to manage it, and you don't need to press the keyboard. What you want to know, as long as you make a decision, can be worked out naturally, without mistakes. What you think, it will know immediately, because it is mysterious and psychic, so it is called "God". But the number of ghosts, I'm afraid I can't count them with my brain, because there are too many. A casual calculation will increase by tens of billions; After a second, it increased by tens of billions, and it was impossible to calculate it accurately. Because ghosts also come to the sky and the earth suddenly, and there is no fixed K.

Ghosts have their relatives and friends. If he knows where there is food, he will invite his friends to eat together. For example, there is a flower eater who can become a bee or a butterfly, eat stamens everywhere and drink flower dew. Hungry ghosts feel that they are often burned and have no rest. It also has fire inside, fire outside, fire inside and outside, and it is fried by flames inside and outside, and the pain is unspeakable. Why is there such a result? Because you have a big temper when you are a man, it's hard to become a ghost after death. It burns day and night, never ending, and you can't hide if you want to. However, if you eat a little nectar and flower dew, you can slightly reduce your hot troubles. Even if you can get a second of indifference, he is very welcome. So the cause and effect of good and evil, like a shadow, is obvious and unpleasant, so be careful!

There is another kind of ghost that only eats fruit. First of all, four kinds of food are briefly explained: all living things take food as the sky. There are four kinds of food, namely (1) segmented food: sentient beings, flesh and blood, tangible, and segmented food. A score is one for you and one for me. A paragraph is a paragraph or a meal. It seems to be eating in the morning, at noon and at night, with a period of time in between, so it is a cycle. People and animals eat in stages. (2) Touch food: If you touch it, you can get food. Ghosts touch food. (3) Thinking about eating: As long as you think about eating, you are full. Heaven and man are thinking about food. (4) knowledge of food: you don't even have to think about it, that is, you have the function of eating in the eighth consciousness. The sky is full of food.

Animals have their own kind, for example, birds, the same kind of peaceful coexistence; Non-homogeneous people, who want to visit their home, are not allowed and will definitely fight. I remember that in the sacred forest of the holy city of ten thousand buddhas, those white cranes sometimes fought with eagles. Last year, a white crane was injured, but it fell from its nest and was injured. Xiao Guotuo used to be friends with him. He may have been a crane in his last life, but he has heard some Buddhist scriptures, so he may not become a man in this life. He couldn't bear to see the crane friend suffer, so he sent him to the hospital for treatment. But the doctors were helpless and sent it back to the tree. Although the big white crane stood up to protect it, it was finally caught by the eagle. Therefore, all living beings have their own families.

Closer to home, all living beings live on food. For example, eating fruit, just picked from the tree, is two. Just like an apple, it is not only one, but also another apple on it. Someone said, "Why didn't I see it?" Steal when you see it! One of these two apples is a shadow, which can also be called the "sex" of apples. Similarly, everyone is not only a person, but also a spiritual person. However, human spirituality is hidden in the human body, not exposed; If this spirituality comes out, it will be eaten by monsters.

No matter what kind of person you become, there is still that shadow behind you, also called a ghost (people have three souls and seven spirits). For example, if you were a horse in your last life, there is a shadow of a horse behind this person; I was a mule in my last life, even cows, sheep, chickens and dogs, and I still have that shadow behind me. People who have opened five eyes will know at a glance, "ah! It turns out that this man was a dog in his last life! But not everyone can open their eyes, because I am afraid that he will expose the problems of other people's past lives. The so-called "secrets can't be revealed" is also true!

Fruit is not an animal, it has no blood, but it is also a living thing. Where there is life, there is sex. When a fruit is sacrificed to a ghost, the ghost will eat the sex of the fruit. Ghosts don't bite the fruit, but eat it. He just needs to touch and suck the sex of the fruit, which means eating it. Therefore, if you eat the fruit that worships ghosts and gods again, you will feel that it has no taste of fruit.

There is a big bear on the northeast mountain of my hometown. It doesn't need to chew anything, just swallow it whole. There is a kind of pear growing on the mountain, which is called Tiedan pear. It is hard, but the bear doesn't need to chew it. He gulped it down. Even better, when defecating, it comes out as a whole, the shape is the same as that of not swallowing, and it is not wasted. But fruit has no taste. Because once it passes through the chemical plant (digestive system) in the bear, the essence has been sucked away, so only its shape is left, not its gender. From this point, we can understand the situation that Buddha and ghost eat fruit. The fruit that has been offered to the Buddha can't be preserved for a long time, and it will soon go bad. Just like a person, the soul does not leave when he is alive; Once the soul leaves the body after death, bones will rot quickly; Sucked fruit will soon rot.

Of the four foods, ghosts only need to smell and touch them, even if they eat them. Unlike us, it's very troublesome to bite and swallow. Someone asked, "How do you know this situation?" That's because I was a ghost before, I remember! Ghosts touch food, heaven thinks about food, and heaven knows food in the air.

The karma of various ghosts and gods is felt by their own karma. If it is, it is called "confusing, making a business, and accepting a business." "So, you know, you have to follow the good news, you have to chase the bad news, if you answer, you can feel happy in suffering, make a fortune on your own, or rely on others to teach you? If you don't want to be a ghost, don't do ghost business.

Today I only talk about a small part of my past ghosts. If you are willing to bother, I will tell you what kind of ant I am, what kind of dumpling worm, hell, beast and so on, and I will tell you everything.

Kings of ghosts and gods have great power to cut off evil spirits and eliminate heresy. They used folding to subdue all pagans, ghosts and monsters. He can subdue the black sheep who know evil religion, witchcraft and evil laws. He can produce good and destroy evil, and break evil and break evil. Demons are like those unreasonable people. Anyone who is unreasonable and surly is a demon reincarnation. No matter how good you are to him, he doesn't think you are; Even if you sacrifice your own flesh and blood to him, he is still dissatisfied, ungrateful and insatiable. Why is this? This is the bad habit of robbery, which is deeply rooted and stubborn.

In "shurangama mantra", the king of ghosts and gods, each led his own clan, such as Heavenly Soldiers, Heavenly Generals, Heavenly Cao, King Kong Lux and so on. They are guarding the Shifang, pedestrians and Long Shao Dojo. There are so many kinds of ghosts and gods and their families mentioned above, we should know that all living beings have their ghosts, dogs have their ghosts, cats have their ghosts, and all living beings have their ghosts. Although people often say that they are afraid of ghosts, in fact, people and ghosts are not separated at all; Ghosts are in the underworld and people are in the yang world, but yin and yang are integrated, with no distinction or boundary. Ghosts are greedy and stupid. Comparatively speaking, people should be cautious. Therefore, ghosts become, while people and animals are shaped by qi.

Why are there forms? Because of all kinds of persistence, I got into the cage of five aggregates and escaped from the scope of Excellence, acceptance, thinking, behavior and knowledge. This five-cloud net blocks our self, like a dark cloud covering the sun. In fact, Yin and Yang are one, but now they are separated by five clouds. People are trapped by Wuyun array, and ghosts are entangled in Wuyun dense forest. So they rise and fall in the sea of industry, live and die, come back from the dead, live as human beings, and die as ghosts. But if you can practice, you don't need to be a ghost; If you practice successfully, you can become a Buddha, a bodhisattva, or a certificate of Siraitia grosvenorii.

If you can keep the Five Commandments and practice the Ten Virtues, you can make Heaven a God. The five precepts are no killing, no stealing, no lewdness, no lying and no drinking. It is compassion not to kill; It is moral not to steal; Do not commit adultery, be a gentleman; Don't lie, it is honest; You won't go crazy if you don't drink. Those who kill will be short-lived; Those who steal will be rewarded with poverty and pain; The reward of prostitution is that birds, pigeons, mandarin ducks and birds are so ambitious. This is an act of private rape in a previous life, which is detrimental to morality, and this karma is shown. I often tell you, but some people still don't pay attention to it, so I take pains to repeat it:

Don't kill anyone! All sentient beings, from the beginning of robbery, are my parents, relatives and friends, and family members. Parents committed a crime in their last life, and they may end up in pigs, horses, cattle and sheep in this life. If you slaughter animals at will, you will indirectly hurt your parents.

Steal: the so-called "don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you." You don't want others to steal or rob your property, so don't steal other people's property in the first place.

Prostitution: In the law of causation, adulterers are the most serious, and their punishment is particularly fierce. Especially between couples, if they divorce each other and then get married, according to the law of causality, at the end of their lives, their bodies will be split in two. Because there is a relationship between the two sides before death, the karma after death shows that there is a big saw sawing people from the top of their heads to their toes. How many times did you commit adultery before your death, how many copies were cut off after your death, how many times did you get married before your death, and how many copies were divided after your death, even a little for everyone. So what's wrong with being apart? It's not easy to get it piecemeal, and I'm afraid I can't get it back after hundreds of billions of robberies at this time, and my spirit will be disabled, rot with the vegetation and become a ruthless plant. If the nature is scattered, it is not easy to be a living being. Even if you can become a sentient being, such as a person, you can become 84,000 mosquitoes, but it is not easy to reunite those 84,000 mosquitoes. Most mosquitoes become mosquitoes again, their heads come out, and they live and die. They never know how to sleep together, and they will go back to the right place. The so-called "one person's loss is beyond redemption." "If you can understand its meaning, don't be afraid!

Ghosts and gods live in big trees.

Excerpted from Master Xuanhua's Magic Weapon Network "Hell Is Not Empty".

_______________________________________________________________________________________

There are many examples of tree gods being consecrated, which is an incredible realm.

Grass has a god of grass, wood has a god of wood, and trees have a god of trees. Tree, upright, upright, upright. There is a tree king in the south of Jambu-Di^pa. It is the largest tree. When the tree is big, it is called "ghost village". Where ghosts and gods live, they live by big trees. Without trees, ghosts and gods will suffer; With trees, ghosts and gods feel very happy when they live where there are trees. So the big tree is called "ghost village".

At that time, in the Three Kingdoms, there was a big tree, and everyone called it a "holy tree". Cao Cao didn't believe it, so he had the tree cut down. Later, he caught a head wind and had a headache all day. Later, he asked Hua Tuo to treat him because he offended the tree god.

According to the law of quartering, monks are not allowed to cut down all the trees, and all the trees are inhabited by ghosts and gods. For example, there is a camphor tree in Nanhua Temple, and the old monk Xu Yun is invited to be ordained; In Jinshan, Nanyue, there was an old man who had a hundred fruit trees-a tree with a hundred fruits, and he also went to be ordained. There are many examples of tree gods being consecrated, which is an incredible realm.

Excerpts from the Tathagata Miyin have been textual research on various positive bodhisattvas in the Shurangama Sutra-Master Xuanhua's lecture on _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Again, Ananda. It's all beings. Do not break the instrument. Break the bodhisattva ring. Destroy Buddha's nirvana. Miscellaneous business. Robbery is burning. After returning the crime. Be influenced by ghosts.

Again, Ananda, unless these sentient beings break the dharma, violate the precepts of the Bodhisattva, slander Nirvana, and enter the hell, if they are in the fire and suffer, they will suffer from various ghosts according to their habits.

If you quit, you will knowingly commit the crime, and the crime will be added three times. Defaming Sambo, breaking the law, will fall into nasal hell and be found for life. Some people say, "Buddhism is Buddhism, why should there be commandments?" Tie yourself up! People want freedom, especially in America. They are more free. Give me liberty or give me death! "As a result, all the bans of Buddhism have been eliminated. It is said that people who are ordained or not can be family members. This is really a demagogue and a bad word to plant the blame!

If you are guilty of greed. This is a sin. Things take shape when they meet. It's called a strange ghost.

If he commits a crime because he is greedy for money, he has already suffered a lot, left hell, and is still following his eating habits, so he is attached to it and formed. Like grass attached to a tree, it's called a strange ghost.

The desire for sex is a crime. This is a sin. Forming in the wind. It's called a ghost.

If in the past, he committed the crime of lust, and this man left hell after suffering and still wandered according to his lust habits, then he is formed by the wind and is called a ghost. Ghosts are drought ghosts, also called banshees. It never rains wherever it goes. Because of excessive lewdness, I feel that yin and yang are not harmonious, and demon wind can make sex rain impossible.

Greed is a sin. This is a sin. It is formed when it meets animals. This is called a ghost.

In the past, if greed and confusion were regarded as a crime, this person would be called a ghost after suffering and leaving hell, and he would still follow his confused habit and meet animals. Demons such as foxes and wild stems may be deformed and confused because of their spare habits, which makes people lose their morality.

Greed and hatred are evils. This is a sin. It takes shape when it meets insects. Poisonous ghosts.

If, in the past, he was insatiable and dared to commit crimes, this person would still hate according to his habits, and he was called a poisonous ghost.

Magic is very popular in Nanyang area: magic is made of poisonous snakes or centipedes and herbs before chanting, so people have to listen to his command if they want to take it. Sometimes it works, and there is the power of life and death. Therefore, please release the evil teacher's solution after the method, otherwise you will always obey him, unless you meet a discerning person or an exorcist to break the poison of the law.

Memories are a sin. This is a sin. Formed under the condition of decay. It's called scab ghost.

If we say that he lusted after old grievances and committed crimes in the past, this man left hell after suffering, and he was still shaped by his resentment habits and bad luck. Decline means that the four seasons are wrong and the yin and yang decline, so I like to spread plagues and epidemics, which is called ghosts.

Arrogance is a sin. This is a sin. Formed when exposed to gas. It's called Hungry Ghost.

If greed and arrogance have committed crimes before, this person is still arrogant after suffering, so he is called a hungry ghost. The hungry ghost has a belly as big as a drum and a throat as small as a needle, so it can't rob water. I eat and drink occasionally, but they all turn into fierce fire, so I can't swallow them, hence the name "hungry ghost".

During the Three Kingdoms period, a famous man, Mi Fei, came to see Cao Cao, who was in power at that time, and was proud of my stupidity and arrogance. He asked the ministers around him to ignore him and deliberately tested the talents of celebrities. When Mi Heng entered the audience, he couldn't afford to sit down and was silent, so he burst into tears. Cao Cao asked him why he was crying. He said, "I saw a group of dead people sitting in the court. How can I not be sad and not cry? " Scold Cao Cao, a treacherous man, and kept silent.

Greed is a sin. This is a sin. When you encounter seclusion, you will be shaped. It's called a nightmare

If greed falsely accused people of committing crimes before, this person ended his suffering and left hell. Because I didn't get rid of my bad habit, I like chasing darkness, so when I met you, I was formed, that is, darkness is inseparable from yin and yang. When people fall asleep, they kill people and make people unable to breathe. They are called nightmare ghosts.

Greed is a sin. This is a sin. See the essence for the form. Ghosts.

If you were greedy for Jaken before, you would make a fool of yourself, but your cleverness was mistaken by your cleverness. You only did stupid things, and you created evil deeds and fell into hell. Sins are all released from prison, and habits are not removed. Therefore, it is formed by meeting the essence of the sun and the moon, which is different from mountains and rivers to show off and confuse people, and it is called a ghost.

Shadow, unpredictable, sometimes a person, sometimes headless, sometimes the first born in the leg, often ill. There are tigers on the mountain, and everyone is afraid to go up the mountain. He turned into a human form and made people go back and forth on the mountain. People thought that the tiger had gone, so they followed it down the mountain and were finally eaten by the tiger.

Greed turned into a crime. This is a sin. When you meet the Ming dynasty, you will be shaped. Servant ghost.

If you used to fall into hell because you covet your own fame and fortune and cheat others, but when you get out of prison after suffering, you still have the habit of cheating and jumping off a building, then it is attached to the Ming Dynasty, that is, the spell is formed and driven by the spell, which is called servant ghost.

There was a monk named Ji in China. He had five servants to help him. Ghosts also have five connections: the eye of heaven, the ear of heaven, the foot of God and the heart of life, but they don't leak everything. But it always belongs to yin and impure yang, so the five links are not very wide. Ji has a servant ghost who delivers messages for him. Whenever there is a disaster, he uses them to save good people. At that time, the villagers called him a living immortal.

Greedy for the Party is a sin. This is a sin. Know people. A transmitter.

In the past, if greed formed a party, helped others to sue for abuse, treated right as wrong, treated white as black, falsely harmed loyalty and righteousness, committed crimes and fell into hell, and after he was released from prison, he would still learn, meet people, convey good or bad luck and so on. This is called teleport ghost.

When a person is possessed, he is possessed by a ghost, which is also called the witch's wish. Sometimes, they say that there is a Buddha or bodhisattva to save people, so they can predict good or bad luck, and it is also very effective and can make progress. So how to distinguish between good and evil? If you don't try, the divine power gained by real practice is of course positive. It is certainly evil to covet others' support and deceive others under the guise of personal shaping.

Ananda. Everyone falls in love with pure love. The industry was completely burned down. Go up and go out as a ghost. These are all attracted by self-deception after realizing Bodhi. Then the wonderful circle and the bright book have nothing.

Ananda, if these people are purely emotional and have no clear vision, they will fall into hell with their feelings, and they will be unable to be human and want to be ghosts after their crimes. This is all based on the truth, hiding one's own nature from the Tathagata, confusing one's own karma with ignorance, and creating all kinds of bad karma. If we can realize bodhi enlightenment and be pure in nature, then the original is wonderful and clear, and there is nothing in it. How can you be bothered by these puzzles?
