What does six degrees paramita mean?

Six degrees is also called six paramita. Paramita is called paramita, which literally means "to the other shore", that is, from the shore of life and death to the other shore of nirvana. Six degrees is liu de practiced by the Bodhisattva in Mahayana Buddhism in order to become a Buddha.

That is, six ways to reach the other side of nirvana. "The Six Degrees Collection" says: "Everyone knows that the Six Degrees Infinite Bodhisattva is difficult to understand its lofty deeds and is a sick Buddha. What is six? One is giving, the other is keeping precepts, the third is enduring humiliation, the fourth is diligence, the fifth is meditation, and the sixth is boundless light.

Giving is giving welfare with compassion and giving human righteousness. There are three kinds of giving: money giving, legal giving and fearless giving. Bodhisattva's practice of giving can make people not worry about meanness, greed and love, and can give happiness to all beings. Seeing that all people are suffering, they are very sympathetic. In the spirit of "people drown themselves and people starve themselves", they do their best to make the suffering people happy and benefit the fans.

The original meaning of giving is to give food, clothes and other property to virtue and the poor. In the Mahayana era, dharma giving and fearless giving were added, which expanded the significance of giving. Among them, the merits and demerits of legal application are greater than financial application.

The formation of giving is a combination of the giver, the giver and the receiver, that is, the three wheels of giving and receiving in the Broken Diamond Sutra. When giving, I realized that the essence of these three things is empty and there is no persistence. This is called three rounds of empty body or three rounds of clean.

When giving, you don't want the fame, fame, wealth and support of the world, but give with a pure heart in order to support good roots and nirvana, which is called net giving. Those who give their blessings in vain are not famous.
