Chapter 411: The Life of Daohua
The master who did not return at night once asked him: How did Taoist practitioners maintain a firm mind for Taoism. He answered a lot, but he didn't say the point.
The master taught him: "Since you have entered the Xuanmen Orthodox Church, you must understand the good roots of your past life, and realize the blessings of this life, and then practice the future kalpas without falling. If you have the true heart toward the Tao, you should follow the laws of the Supreme One."
"However, many practitioners do not realize it themselves. They only seek Taoism for a lifetime. They do not know the mystery and have prohibitions. All the rice and money are related. They are the cream of the world and the blood and sweat of farmers. If they are not exhausted with their hearts, they will not be able to be eliminated without any merits?"
"The more they are confused, they do not think about themselves, and they are unwilling to practice, and they say that the original teaching is useless, so they follow the heretics to benefit others, which leads to robbing, stealing, committing adultery, harming others for selfishness, or messing with meat, drinking and disorderly discipline, and destroying the sects. They may refine false techniques and deceive and charm; or believe in other people and slander the Orthodox Church. How can these scoundrels do all kinds of things??"
"Don't say that they are later generations. If the celestial immortals have made mistakes, they will be exiled to their position; if the celestial immortals have made mistakes, they will be demoted to their posts; if the immortals have made mistakes, they will be destroyed; if the elves have made mistakes, they will be destroyed; if the king has made mistakes, they will lose their country; if the ministers have made mistakes, they will be punished; if the official has made mistakes, they will be discarded; if the common people have made mistakes, they will be blessed.? All the mistakes and evils will be deserving of their own. What's more, how can they be retribution for those who commit evil deeds?"
"As a practitioner, you should think of your mind from your idle place, what is the reason for practicing Taoism, and why do you seek the great way?"
Master Qiu Shan Zhenren said again: "It is because we can see through the worldly affairs and the sufferings of reincarnation that we can advance to the Tao. How can we make mistakes and increase our debts? If we can think about and correct our mistakes, we will follow the original intention. There are three vehicles of Dharma, we will follow the original teachings, advance according to our ability, and keep our determination, and practice hard, which is the right path to practice the Tao!"
"The best ones cultivate truth and cultivate nature, and have a hard mind and aspirations to understand the mystery; realize the wonderful way of nothingness. Understand the great principles of the golden elixir; the righteous energy of heaven and earth, eliminate the injustice of the world. They practice convenience and accumulate great yin skills. They only have three thousand achievements and eight hundred actions to complete them, and then they will be ranked as immortals in the three realms!"
"Sometimes crossing the phoenix and cranes to the golden palace, or crossing the colorful phoenix to the Yaochi, thousands of truths are respected and protected by all saints. They are the same body as the heaven and earth, and the sun and the moon are bright. Isn't it a real man of a practitioner!"
"The middle-aged man should teach with his heart, recite sutras, recite the Dharma of the Supreme One, and worship the treasure of the Heavenly Lord. Be faith and pray in front of the saint, and fast in the temple with devout speed. Calm the body and mind, expound the great way, and have a pure thought, and always keep the Dharma."
"When you use the destruction, when you are dead, you will be supported by good immortals, either sent to the palace, or you will be born in the government, or you will be famous as the king, or you will be ranked in the third platform for the ministers. At that time, all the people admired each other and returned to the world. Isn't it respectful to people?"
"The lower-class people will build palaces and temples, print scriptures and statues, repair bridges and roads, abstain from killing and releasing animals, and give teahouse medicine. Only the foundation of compassion and the intention of greed will be eliminated. Or they will help the poor, be humble, respect teachers and friends, receive exchanges, love the elderly and cherish the poor. In order to wait for the merits and deeds to be perfect, they will be able to transform into people, and be born in a wealthy family, and enjoy endless benefits for their whole life. Isn't that great!"
Qi Shan Zhenren said a lot in one breath, and then said: "The way of practicing the great way is clear in every sentence. If you are not conscious, you should not eliminate wine, sex, money and energy, and you should leave your home, be defiled and happy, do whatever you want, and do whatever you want. Wouldn't you be happy? How can you fall in love with Xuanmen for a long time, be confused and unconscious? If you commit endless sins, you will be unable to escape the consequences. When you die, who should you look at the recommendation?"
"Those who have the will of sincerity can go deeper, and those who have no future fate can retreat. Otherwise, if the sins are doubled, I will be very sympathetic, and this is a training for me."
"If there is a person who sees and trains, and those who hears and trains change their minds; reorganizes their ambitions and corrects their past mistakes; be brave and diligent, and undertakes the Tao; those who hear and understand, and those who see and enlighten. Those who see and enlighten the mind are the mind of returning to the light, and those who open the mind are the meaning of reflection."
"If you don't realize it early, you will be distorted forever. Once you fall into the path of darkness, you will always sink into the sea of suffering and turn into an alien. At this point, how can you regret it? A smart expert thinks carefully and misses this life, it is difficult to encounter the great way."
After saying that, Master Qiu Shan sighed and said, "Many people practice Taoism for immortality, but after being born, they get a death pass. How many immortals can really avoid disaster but die."
"Everyone is asking, the attachment to life and the fear of death linger in the heart all the time. Life and death are the key questions of life and are also questions that any sect must answer. Once it can become people's belief, it will be obsessed with by thousands of believers. One of the main reasons is that they all contain the deepest and most primitive psychological risks to human beings and the ultimate solution to death."
"But different sects have different views on life and death due to their basic doctrines and doctrines, which has formed various views on life and death. Life is like a sheep led to a market slaughtered, and every step you take will approach death. This is life, birth, old age, sickness and death, life and death, and this is also the root of all pain."
"If you want to escape from pain and break life and death, practitioners must sublimate the level of human beings through practice, transform themselves into enlightenment, and become enlightened people. Those who attain enlightenment are called "real people". True people can live forever, and they are eternal existences that are basically one with the Tao.
"How does Taoist see life and death, soul, reincarnation, the next life, and this life? In fact, for some great masters who truly practice and realize, they can achieve perfection, and their lives can be reincarnated 100%, and their spirit can be maintained forever. However, ordinary people cannot do it without practicing."
"How do Taoist think? Taoism says that a person has three souls and seven spirits. A living person has his soul reunion, which is the reality of life. Of course, sometimes, there will be situations where the soul is separated. For example, if a baby is frightened, his soul is not very strong, and he will cry or get fucked. In severe cases, it will also cause mental illness because his soul has not been fully adjusted. Generally speaking, it is said that it is scaring the soul. Taoist sect has some sutras and mantras that can help him call his soul back. The content of medicine comes from Taoist sect."
"Some people also experience soul separation when they grow up, which is like schizophrenia; some people practice some qigong in their minds and experience some strange symptoms, which is called "going into a demon" in the term "someone who is not strong in the soul itself will be entered by some negative energy and are controlled by these negative energy. Such people are mostly lacking in self-confidence."
"A normal person has his soul and soul reunites, so he has life. Why do people die? It means that the three souls and seven spirits cannot be gathered, so it disperses. After it disperses, the person's life is lost. There are some ways to practice in Taoism, which is to make people's souls not separate."
"The Grand Lord once said: Carrying the soul and holding one's soul can be free from separation. The gods are resurrected from the dead, and the soul will be regained. In this way, you can maintain your life through the cultivation of your cultivation and achieve immortality."
"After the soul dispersed, a person's life is reborn. After the soul dispersed, life is no longer what it was. At this time, life is said to drink Mengpo soup, and you will not have the original memory. After the three souls and seven spirits are dispersed, you will not return to the past. Just like a dewdrop on a grass, the sun will disappear and it will not be restored. Then after the three souls and seven spirits are dispersed, they will go their separate ways. How can life appear again?"
"Because life is composed of souls, new life still needs the combination of souls. When a person's soul is dispersed, it will be recombined with other scattered souls through the life channel of heaven and earth to become a new soul gathering, that is, a new life form, this is the Taoist view of reincarnation."
"That is not a 100% reincarnation of life, it is only achieved by a great master. The high way is even a person who returns with his wish, or his life can be 100% reincarnated, which is not bound by the Creator."
"But the soul of ordinary people can only be separated, and then encounter opportunities, recombined with other separated souls, becoming a part of a new soul, nourishing new souls, or a part of life."
"So after everyone is born, they are not single-born. Human life is a continuation body, which is very complicated. Fire always exists, just like the existence of life, but after firewood is burned, life will continue to continue on other firewood."
"A firewood burns to ashes, it will become the nutrient for other firewood, so the new firewood also has the original firewood."
