Brothers and sisters, how to interpret this passage?

This is the scripture in the Diamond Sutra.

First, I am, that is, in the five-accumulation method, there is a real me, and I have everything; Second, human nature, because I am persistent and realistic, from my standpoint, I call others human; Third, all sentient beings, and I treat more than one sentient beings. The difference between all people and non-people is for all sentient beings; Fourth, the longevity stage, that is, in the first stage of life, the length of continuous life.

When a person comes to pure faith, he knows that everything that has phenomena is not, but there is no phase, not even a phase. People who can realize Tao in this way will get great rewards. Why? Because this person has reached the realm of Buddha in this world, and he is a body Buddha. Why did he reach the realm of Buddha? Because this man didn't touch anyone, nor did he touch me, and he really believed. As soon as I let go, of course, there will be no self-nature, no people, no sentient beings and no immortality.

These four periods are very serious! All the pains and troubles in life come from these four aspects. Psychologically speaking, four phases are four concepts, namely, four common phenomena of human beings. Everyone's ego is very important, especially the opinion of the expert "I". A master can endure anything. If you meet a learned and cultured person, will you tell him to get out of the way and I'll sit down? He looks at you, hum! This stupid thing, okay! I sympathize with you and ask you to sit down. This is my appearance, because "I" felt sorry for you and gave it to you; I'm too lazy to tell you because I don't think you understand. So I've seen something more advanced. Of course, it is as powerful as I am now.

People are everywhere in me, and I can get rid of them. I am out of phase, of course, there is no phase, everything is equal, all beings are Buddhas, men and women who look at the world are their parents, and children who look at the world are their own children. Can do this, because there is no self, no one, naturally there will be no sentient beings, equality, no matter who lives; It is the same to live long and short. So life and death can be seen clearly, and life and death are the same. This is Zhuangzi's concept. Life and death are the same, just like sooner or later. Rest at night and don't wake up when dreaming. "Phase" is a phenomenon in the external field, a concept in psychology and a subjective concept.

The following two are more important, "can't take pictures". All Buddhism, what is Buddhism, has been put down. All appearances are false. All appearances are put down. It's impossible to shoot. But if you think it has nothing, nothing, neither a Buddha nor a Buddha, you will fall on the "yes". What is "yes"? "Breaking the law is", and you don't admit anything. Sorry, you are wrong again, and the "right" is "nothing more than the law". In other words, nothing is everything.

Some people study the Diamond Sutra and think that it is absolutely empty, wrong, and can't be compared. It is nothing more than dharma. In other words, it is wrong to think that everything is empty, because everything has changed. Therefore, in the Shurangama Sutra, the Buddha said two famous words, "Being divorced from all phases is all dharma". From all phases, that is, the annotation of "can't phase"; That is, all laws, that is, the annotation of the sentence "nothing is beyond law" from all phases, that is, all laws and everything are also separated. Therefore, the Diamond Sutra is not empty talk. It just says that when you see the Tao and the Dharma Body, it is "all things are illusory". When we begin to practice, it is not empty to be diligent in doing good and mindfully doing good.

The Zen master, with thorough understanding, explained the basic truth of Buddhist scholars and said, "In fact, there is no dust. Don't give up a law in all walks of life. In fact, there is no dust in the ground, which is about ontology; All walks of life can't be empty, they must be thoughtful, they can't do evil, and they can also do good deeds, so all walks of life can't give up a method; Everything is there, not empty. This truth, we must first be clear when learning Buddhism. Let's talk about the third reason first, explain it repeatedly, go back and forth, and finally draw a conclusion.

Here, Kumarajiva particularly emphasized the tone, and the Buddha specifically told Subti, "All appearances are illusory. If you see a different phase, you will see the Tathagata. These four sentences are very important and we should pay special attention to them. No matter what realm you have, it is false; Whatever can be repaired, there will be no repair. You said that meditation has a realm, and it won't happen if you don't meditate; Realm is phase, and all phases are unreal.

How can I see the real Buddha? Seeing the Dharma Body is the real encounter with the Buddha. If all appearances are not appearances, it is not empty talk! The general interpretation is empty, which is a random interpretation. Since it is empty, why not translate it into empty? He just said, "If you see the opposite", what is the opposite? I didn't give you a verdict! So most people read the Diamond Sutra and draw a conclusion here, thinking it is empty. That's what you think, not what the Buddha said. The Buddha just said that when you see different faces, you will see the Buddha and see the Buddha's dharma body.

The point is, the Buddha only tells you that it is not phase, not empty! Where is the truth? There is nowhere to live.

The main center of Article 5 of the Diamond Sutra is four sentences: "Everything is false. If you see the opposite phase, you will see the Tathagata. What are the four sentences mentioned in the Diamond Sutra? This is a big problem for thousands of years, because there are four sentences in the middle of the scripture, and the final conclusion is: "Everything is like a dream, such as dew, such as electricity, so look at it this way." "It's four sentences. Now the fifth product encounters these four sentences for the first time. I hope everyone will pay special attention. Now back to the fifth fret, the Buddha said not to meet face to face.

In Buddhism, when you become a Buddha, you can get three bodies, namely dharma body, body report and incarnation. So the Buddha statues made in some temples are arranged together like three statues, representing three bodies; This refers to the big temples on the mainland in the past. The rise of Taoism after the Tang Dynasty is also modeled after this situation, that is, supernatant, Taiqing and Yuqing are also three bodies. This is the case when it comes to religion. In fact, all religions, whether East or West, imitate each other to a considerable extent.

Now we know that the Buddha has three bodies, purity is the dharma body, perfection is the report body, and various forms are the embodiment. We don't talk about the position of Buddhism. From the perspective of Buddhism, Dharma Body is the noumenon, the noumenon of the universe. Borrowing modern ideas, it is the energy of all things. Reporting to the body is the so-called phenomenon, and the dharma body is the body. The so-called can't meet, that is, don't treat the phenomenon as ontology. As for the incarnation, it is his changing role. In other words, the trinity of law, newspaper and literature, from a philosophical point of view, is the body, the phase and the use. Everything in the universe has its own body. If water is the body and tea is the bubble, tea is its phase; Made wine, this wine is also a phase, whether it is wine, tea or ice cream, the nature of the water itself is dharma body, not body; The same drop of water changes various phenomena, which is its purpose. Theoretically, this is the trinity of law, newspaper and culture that we should first understand.

In Buddhism, the successful practitioner of Zen Buddhism is called "Dawu", that is, according to the Diamond Sutra, "Aunt Doro has three benefits and three bodhis, and the perfection equals enlightenment". What enlightenment is this? It is the noumenon of all life in the universe, that is, the dharma body, which is said in the Heart Sutra to be immortal, unclean, neither increasing nor decreasing. The Diamond Sutra begins by saying, "No cloud can live long, and King Kong is not bad." Also refers to the dharma body. One thought does not give birth to the whole body, also refers to the dharma body, no phase.

As for the successful application, it is practical. Earlier, we also mentioned that Buddha has 32 special phases, 80 of which follow special phases. In other words, whoever achieved it, who got the word, whose parents gave birth to him, turned around. This is a report and a piece of meat. Why did you say he signed up? All sentient beings are self-reported. They live a very comfortable life, everything is fine and they enjoy themselves, which is the result of his self-report of doing good deeds. Some people's life is very painful and difficult, which is the reason for his bad life in the past and leads to this life. As for those who have achieved success in monasticism, their names have changed. According to the general Taoist concept, they will be cured and live forever, that is, they will change their names. When the monasticism is completely completed, the whole person is completely transformed and has all magical powers. This is a rare thing, so it is very rare to report yourself successfully.

Generally speaking, Taoists talk about cultivating qi pulse, opening up eight strange meridians, while Tantric Buddhism talks about cultivating three pulses and seven rounds and so on. , mostly to repair the body. Generally speaking, meditation, chanting Buddha and meditation are mainly based on practicing dharma. As for self-reporting, it is the role of incarnation, cultivating a body outside this body, and at the same time there is another body outside this body. This is basically the situation of dharma triple body.

Generally, people who study Buddhism take the dharma route in theory, and esoteric Buddhism claims to do three things, because only those who do three things can really learn Buddhism. Three-body achievement is another name, also known as immediate achievement. There are two different words in it, namely "lifetime achievement", this lifetime achievement, success, life and death, and this is the birth of life. In theory, it is almost more difficult to achieve immediate results than this, and all wisdom and practice are needed to transform the four big bodies born by parents. You need to completely transform the color body to complete it.

In addition to offering sacrifices to Sakyamuni Buddha, Tibetan tantra also offered sacrifices to Master Lotus and Peanut. It is said that Master Lotus Peanut came back eight years after the death of Sakyamuni Buddha. When he was the leader of Zoroastrianism, his parents were pregnant, but he thought that the important practice methods were not completed during Zoroastrianism, so he turned to become the leader of Zoroastrianism, transformed from lotus.

At that time, the king and his wife of a country in South India had no children, and they were very sad. The couple are enjoying the lotus flowers in the imperial garden. Suddenly, a lotus flower grew in the middle, and a child jumped out of the lotus bud, which was a lotus peanut. Later, he succeeded to the throne as a prince. At the age of eighteen, he achieved his goal and his body was preserved forever. In Tibet, there was a national motorcycle protection conference every year, which was a religious ceremony. Protecting motorcycles means like Zoroastrianism. Everything was burnt down. Some women cut off their hair and throw it in to burn it. The fire lasted for seven days and nights, and most people read the spell of Master Lotus Peanut around the fire. They often see him riding a white horse, walking around the fire, and then disappearing.

According to tantric legend, because Master Lotus Peanut was the founder of tantric religion, unlike the path of nirvana in his previous life, he rode away on a white horse. When he appears in person, he will always be a boy of 18 years old, never change, and occasionally grow a moustache. This is to show that the achievements of the newspaper will last forever; That is, the Taoist view of longevity, the so-called sharing interest with the sun and the moon and sharing life with the world, is a complete report. Of course, after the registration is completed, there will naturally be incarnations, and all kinds of magical powers will be enough. Therefore, to really learn Buddhism, it is necessary to get immediate results.

After we understand these theories and statements, we know that generally speaking, the Diamond Sutra focuses on seeing the Dharma Body. How to meet the dharma body? Is to realize the Tao. The Diamond Sutra is a part of Prajna. The so-called Prajna focuses on proving the reality of Prajna, which is the ontology of life since the beginning of everything. Self-proof and incarnation belong to the realm of Prajna, so the Buddha proposed that he could not see the Buddha in person. The Tathagata mentioned in the Diamond Sutra is the essence of life and the ontology of life that exists with all sentient beings. Therefore, it is ok for us to have faith and piety, but we should not be too photogenic; Not only can you not learn Buddhism, but you can't shoot religion.

There are many people who cling to their bodies; People who are too photogenic are medically called religious psychological diseases and can't be treated. Not only in Buddhism, there are many such people, but in all religions, some believers do not pursue teachings, but blindly believe and become religious mental diseases. A sentence in Buddhism is too photogenic. So the Diamond Sutra is translated into "Prajna", which means that it is an achievement of wisdom, which means that you can't meet the Tathagata yourself.

Many people learn Zen and do all kinds of kung fu, and often ask: Is this realm good? What about this phenomenon? Pay attention to the important point: "everything is illusory." Practicing meditation today is good for you, but you should know that if you don't study meditation well, it will be bad, so this is not the way. When the cross-legged path comes, it will change without cross-legged. This is called leg repair, not monasticism. Cross-legged with legs barking, that's not true. Therefore, to borrow a word from the golden mean, "those who are Taoist must be inseparable for a moment, and they can be separated, and they are not Taoist." In other words, the Heart Sutra tells us that the truth of immortality, impurity and increase or decrease is not because of your practice; It's not because you don't fix it that it's missing a little. It is not the truth of Taoism that there are more repairs and less repairs, that is, there are increases and decreases. Tao can't meet each other in person, so all appearances are illusory.

Since all appearances are illusory, what would you say if you saw a Buddha in front of you? According to the truth of the Diamond Sutra, you can think about it. If you really see a Buddha standing in front of you, I advise you to have your eyes checked quickly. There must be something wrong. Some people either heard something or had a special inspiration, so most people went to play. You must pay attention! Everything is illusory. The supreme bodhi is very dull; Goodall tells us that Tao is in ordinary daily life. Truth, truth, is absolutely normal, the most obvious is the most ordinary, and the truly ordinary is the most obvious. The same is true of being a man. The smartest person is also the most ordinary person, and the most ordinary person is also the smartest person. Lao Tzu also said, "Even the wisest man is foolish", and wisdom is very dull when it reaches the extreme.

People are often pretentious, but that is pretentious! I think I am special. Only when you really reach the most ordinary place will you realize the highest. I often tell jokes that there are two apples in the world that have become human culture; Take western culture as an example. Adam and Eve ate an apple and created human history. Another apple was seen by Newton and changed the civilization of the world.

Actually, I think the apples in the north are more delicious than those in America and Japan. We have eaten several generations of apples, and we have not found gravity. Suddenly Newton saw the apple fall to the ground and found gravity. Apples are ordinary, and they fall off every year, but one person found an extraordinary one in the ordinary truth. For example, steam is very common, and there is steam when boiling water and cooking, but Watt invented the steam engine. Everything, for the same reason, is extraordinary in the most ordinary places.

Therefore, we must learn from Buddhism and Taoism and never lose those magical and extraordinary ideas. If you can reach the most ordinary place in life, you can learn and know Buddha. In other words, you can know that everything is illusory, not only the Buddha can't get it, but all the things in the world can't get it. You can see the Tathagata and your dharma body at any time.
