Holy Buddha Dharma Can Never Be Changed

Regarding cultivation and learning from Buddha, almost every master who transmits Dharma would say his Dharma is the best. You can say it is hard to find one out of a thousand masters who would say his Dharma is ordinary. How do you tell which Dharma is high-level and correct and which Dharma is low-level and bad? There is nothing to go by but people blowing their own trumpets. Those who are learning from Buddha are usually ordinary folks who cannot distinguish the levels and the qualities of the Dharma at all. As such, it has become a severe problem.

Therefore, to clearly see the level of a Buddha Dharma and whether it is correct or evil, one must pay attention and differentiate between the holy and the mundane Buddha Dharmas and the fake Buddha Dharma. A ritual script in which all the words are the same may even have different natures: one is holy, and the other mundane. It is tantamount to the same medicines that have no difference. The one that bears the stamp of approval by the National Health Department has the guarantee by the government and is qualified; the other one that does not have the seal of approval would not have the backing from the National Health Department and is unqualified.

The texts for practicing cultivation and practicing Dharma are the same. There are three different categories of them. The same book for practicing cultivation or Dharma, which has precisely the same wording, can have two completely different natures. The first is the practice of cultivation or Dharma, which has the approval and guarantee by the Yidam and Dharma protectors. That is the holy type of practice of cultivation and Dharma. Their goal is to ensure the meaning of the Dharma and the scripture of cultivation practice are 100% correct. (Yidam means a Buddha or a Bodhisattva in the space.) The second type is the practices of cultivation and Dharma that the Yidam or the Dharma protectors have not approved; they belong to the mundane kind of cultivation and Dharma practices. However, because the meaning of the Dharma is accurate, there is no drawback; it just takes a long time for one to become accomplished. As long as one is earnest, pious, and abiding by the precepts, one should become accomplished, but there is no absolute assurance. The third kind is texts that quote the Sutras or the treatises incompletely and are edited or recomposed by people on their own. They appear to be Buddha Dharmas but are, in fact, evil dharmas of the non-Buddhists who pretend to be Buddhists. They result from evil masters and liars who cheat people to collect the offering money. Not only can one not attain accomplishment by practicing these texts, but one will also be met with misfortunes and fall into the lower realms.

The difference between the practice of the holy Dharma and mundane Dharma is whether or not there is a Yidam and Dharma Protectors who are directly responsible for it. How can a ritual be a Holy Dharma with a Yidam and Dharma Protector? The answer is the following. Many Buddhists have heard that among the high-level Buddha Dharmas, there are Trekcho, Zejue (i.e., Holy Determination), Togal Vajra Chain and observation, and so on; among the regular Buddha Dharmas, there are also divination, soothsaying, drawing lots, observing the lake, and turning the Tsampa ball. But these methods are not holy determination. As far as the holy determination is concerned, the Yidam, Buddha, and Bodhisattvas must manifest their presence on the spot and determine whether the matter submitted for holy determination is of the correct or incorrect nature. Therefore, a ritual of practicing cultivation and Dharma can only be sacred if it is determined and ascertained to be so by the Yidam in public. The Yidam and Dharma Protectors will especially guarantee this cultivation and Dharma practice ritual only when the Yidam has personally affirmed its nature. Its nature cannot merely be determined by the empty soothsaying, cleromancy, drawing lots, divination, or reading one’s palm.

(Attention: why is it holy only if the Yidam definitively determines it so? Because Buddhas and Bodhisattvas want to prevent evil teachings and fake dharmas from deceiving Buddhists. The Yidam and the Dharma Protectors only guarantee the Dharma and cultivation practice ritual in the Dharma ritual book and are not responsible for anyone. For the Yidam and Dharma Protectors to be accountable for a person who practices cultivation and the Dharma, that person must receive the Inner-tantric Initiation.)

A transmitted ritual can only be holy if it has been affirmed through a holy determination. On the other hand, all the cultivation and Dharma practices that have not gone through a holy determination or have not been approved and affirmed by the Yidam are mundane rituals of practice without exception, although they may be cultivation and Dharma practices of correct teachings. They have no Yidam and Dharma Protectors who would guarantee them expressly. Suppose a Dharma or a cultivation practice can be determined by Sending a Petition to Bodhisattva. In that case, it is a supreme holy Dharma or Cultivation that the Buddhas in the Ten Directions have approved.

However, it is tough to hold a Yidam Dharma ritual ceremony and conduct the holy determination because it can only be done by a great Holy Guru, who is a Shangzun of Gold Button Level 3. To definitively determine a Cultivation and Dharma by way of Sending a Petition to Bodhisattva, a Yuzun Who is above Gold Button Level 3 and close to Gold Button Level 4 is required because only They can successfully hold the Sending a Petition to Bodhisattva. A Great Holy Guru Who can complete Sending a Petition to Bodhisattva will have no problem building an Inner-tantric Mandala at all.

The second type is the mundane rituals of practicing cultivation and Dharma. Some comply with Buddhist precepts and disciplines; still, there is absolutely no Sidhi power from the direct Yidam and Dharma Protectors empowering the rituals because they have not been approved and affirmed by the Yidam. Therefore, no Yidam or Dharma Protectors directly guarantees them.

Nonetheless, there are practices of cultivation, Dharmas, and Sutras that the Yidams and Dharma Protectors have affirmed in Buddhist history. For example, the Diamond Sutra, translated by Wei Mo Teng,* and the Heart Sutra, translated by Dharma Master Xuanzang, are holy in nature. On the other hand, the scriptures translated by others that have identical meanings 99% of the time with only a tiny bit of change in the text could not be affirmed by the Yidam at the time of the holy determination and became the Heart Sutra without the guarantee by the Yidam and Dharma Protectors. Therefore, a little bit of change can result in a humongous difference.

Additionally, for a specific complete ritual of cultivation or Dharma practice, if one sentence is not approved by the Yidam, Who is a Buddha or a Bodhisattva, it will not pass the holy determination. In that case, the ritual is not a sacred ritual of cultivation or Dharma. Suppose a cultivation scripture or a Dharma that has passed the holy determination and been affirmed by the Yidam is changed by one sentence by a goodwill practitioner or a person of an evil cult. In that case, the Yidam will then leave that ritual of cultivation or Dharma. The posterity of the devil will also take the opportunity to enter it to derange the practitioners. That is why there is such a thing as being obsessed with the devil. You must keep it in mind and carefully prevent it.

All the rituals and Dharma expounded and taught by Namo H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III are practices of cultivation and Dharma that the Yidam has determined and affirmed during Dharma ritual ceremonies held by the Great Holy Gurus and Tremendously Great Holy Gurus. They belong to the holy class of cultivation and Dharma practices that the Yidam and the Dharma Protectors guarantee. For example, Expounding the Absolute Truth through the Heart Sutra was affirmed as holy through a holy selection, and the Buddhas also came to bestow holy amrites to manifest their affirmation.

Someone once changed one sentence in the 128 Evil and Erroneous Views and brought it to the Shangzun for holy determination. The Yidam and the Dharma Protectors didn’t give their affirmation. Only after the original sentence was rectified did they give their affirmation. They changed it back and forth and submitted it for holy determination three times; the results were identical.

Whoever it is, he cannot change any sentence in the cultivation and Dharma practices that Namo H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III impounded. Otherwise, the Yidam and the Dharma Protectors will not give Their approval, and the evil people will take the opportunity to invade and disturb the practitioners.

A great virtuous one of Blue Button Level 3 with three black buttons—the highest rank in the Blue Button levels, added the following sentence to the Diamond Sutra: “There are no forms of the myriad things in the past, the present, and the infinite future.” There seems to be nothing wrong in the text, but the Yidam would disapprove of it when it was put through a holy determination. When the text was changed back to the original on the spot, Yidam immediately approved it. Then, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III asked him to change the sentence to “No form of the past, the current, and the future” and had the Shangzun hold the holy determination ritual ceremony again. The Yidam approved it immediately. No other holy being can understand the mind of the Buddhas; even a first-stage Bodhisattva can never understand the state of a second-stage Bodhisattva. “A person of ordinary structure cannot understand the views of the Holy One; they pretend to be holy Amrit, but it is just rainwater in the bowl.”**

The Buddha’s teachings of Dharma are holy. How could an ordinary person understand its inner meaning? Even a Great Bodhisattva cannot change one sentence. How could an ordinary person who does not have any understanding and capability in the five vidyas do so? They have violated Shakyamuni Buddha’s Dharma stipulations for Bodhisattvas and do not have the essence of a Bodhisattva. They don’t even have the understanding and capabilities of an Arahat. How can they understand the faithful Buddha Dharma that contains Buddha’s true meaning and is approved by the Yidam?

The Buddhist world is full of evil cheaters and non-Buddhists who pretend to be holy nowadays. They run amuck everywhere. With his ordinary man’s views, one person dared to rewrite the 128 Evil and Erroneous Understanding and Views and What is Cultivation. Holding no bias, the holy gurus submitted the text that this person changed to a holy determination. The upshot is that Yidam did not accept it. Not only is it not a sacred Dharma scripture, but it was also defined as “a text of evil views of an ordinary person and must not be learned.”

Therefore, we ask you all to be extremely careful. Pay attention to this grave matter and never ignore its importance. You must clearly understand the difference in the essences of the holy, the ordinary, and the evil, lest you choose the evil arguments and build up a calamity that hurts living beings and results in your descending into the three lower realms without the possibility of practicing authentic Dharma.

心直何必口快?佛教如是修行

心直何必口快?佛教如是修行

心直何必口快?佛教如是修行

古人有言:“病從口入,禍從口出。”說的是我們要管好自己這張嘴。佛教“十善業”中,與善惡相關的語言就有四種,惡語和柔和語,妄語和實語,綺語和質直語,兩舌和調解語。

又有俗語說:“良言一句三冬暖,惡語傷人六月寒。”傷人之言,深於矛戟。鋒利的語言對人的傷害,如彎刀刺心,烈火焚心,冰浸手足……而溫暖的語言能帶給他人安慰和蘊藉,如夏日涼風,冬之暖陽,攝化人心。

而事實情況是,我們小時候用兩年的時間學會了說話,但卻要用一生時間學如何說話,經常還學不好。

日常生活中,我們會遇到這樣一種“心直口快”的朋友,他不顧我們的“面子”,以自己的性子和認識,亂說話,讓我們感到很難堪,很尷尬。對方卻不以為然的淡然一笑說: “我就是這個性,心直口快,你別介意。”什麼邏輯?心直,就有口快,讓人難堪的資本嗎?

還有, “刀子嘴豆腐心”常來形容那些心地善良,卻言詞犀利,話語如尖刀般傷人的人,而往往這類人還用“這就是我的性格,這就是我的脾氣”來掩飾,圖一時痛快,卻易留下過患。

先說說筆者身邊這種“刀子嘴豆腐心”的人吧。

(一)愛責備人的爺爺

我爺爺心地善良,樂於助人,誰家有個難關,他都願意去幫忙,有錢借錢有力出力。而他本人艱苦樸素,飲食簡單,一碟青菜,幾根酸豆角就著米酒,儼然一頓大餐。他常年兩套藍色中山裝,洗得發白,自己省吃儉用但對家人、好友慷慨大方,儘管這樣,子女遠離,孫子孫女畏懼,這究竟是為什麼呢?

原來是他沒有修口業,一點小事不如意就會火冒三丈,然後口不擇言。曾經因為他爬樓頂修撿瓦片,我就膽戰心驚。

大雨時,房頂的瓦片碎了漏雨,雨後爺爺駕著梯子上去修撿,我在下面扶梯子,遞瓦片。到了屋頂上,往往不容易發現破碎的瓦片,需要屋下人指引。另一方面,屋簷上也不易落腳,容易打滑。爺爺脾氣急,幾個來回找不到瓦片,或踩滑了一下,就會責備在屋下的我。

“你是個豬腦袋嗎?這點小事都做不好,眼睛看哪去了?”

“梯子扶好了!想摔死我嗎?”

……

年幼的我自然不敢吭聲,因為一解釋,那後面緊接著是“暴風驟雨”。兒時,格外不喜歡下雨天。

爺爺就是因為在日常中,十句話有八句話是批評和指責,句式常常是“你怎麼怎麼……”,過於苛責,自然就造了很多口業,留下了深深的烙印,讓人不敢親近。

爺爺過世前,曾兩次中風,導致半身不遂,舌頭捲縮,失語。

學佛後,我才知道爺爺是屬於煩惱障特別重的人,煩惱一起,嗔火一冒,口不擇言。另一方面,也是我們晚輩們沒做好,讓他一把年紀還為家人所累,心生煩惱,在此深深懺悔。

(二)口中常讚賞他人的同事

有一位朋友,她正直善良,性格活潑,善於表達,讓人心生好感和親近。在職場上,她是位非常受歡迎的同事;在生活中,她是個無微不至關心人的好友;在家庭裡,她是個賢妻良母。跟她相處之中,你會覺得如沐春風。為什麼會這樣呢?因為她懂說話的藝術!

跟上司彙報,她能言簡意賅,又能闡述工作的重點。跟同事相處,能適時表揚他人,就算批評人也能“重話輕說”,委婉道出自己的觀點,讓人能虛心接受,心服口服。她也時常稱讚他人,讓人心裡歡喜。

她的句式是:“個人覺得這件事應XXXX做,你覺得呢?”

“這個項目目前完成得還不錯,在XXXX方面延伸擴展一下,相信會更好,我們再接再厲吧!”

“你這個事做得很好,讓我受教了。”

“你今天的衣服真漂亮,跟你的氣色很搭,改天也給我參謀參謀。”

她的話語,是徵求性,讚賞性,鼓勵性的,無形之中就傳達了正能量。因而她人緣好,人脈資源廣,很多別人辦不到的事,經她溝通,絕大多數都能達成。

(三)熱心付出卻不修口業的同修

有一位學佛的同修,常常在佛教法會中做義工,熱心付出又勤勞好動,在大家煩悶之餘,也能妙語連珠,活躍氣氛。起初我們是好友,可相處久了,卻漸漸疏遠了。

他不容易聽取別人的意見,但又喜歡觀察、談論他人的缺點、過失。有一位共同的朋友,是我比較尊敬的人,這位同修就在我面前說他的過失。當我有不同意見時,這位同修非得要勸服我,認同他的觀點,引發爭執。類似的事發生過多次後,自然令我敬而遠之。

南無羌佛在法音裡教導修行人:“他非即我非,同體名大悲。真行自己錯,莫論他人非。”他的不對就看成我的不對,看到他人的不好,要看成自我的損減,這樣才是大悲的一種體現。真正的修行是常常反思自己的過失,而不要談論他人的是非。

若在背後說他人是非,易引起旁觀者的反感,也容易失去他人的尊敬。

南無羌佛在《學佛》裡教導行人“一日三審”,以檢查自己的不足。對於自我修行,忍辱是最大的菩提。

心直口快的人若依教而行,定會少很多批評與責備,多一些讚歎與欣喜。因為每個人都有各自的缺點和優點。若一味苛求完美,按自己的高標準要求別人,不僅給他人造成了壓力,也給自己增加了障礙。

佛教宣導人們行十善、四無量心。在修口業方面,說實言,說柔和語、質直語、調解語,與眾生廣結善緣,善言安慰,柔和溝通,在友好的基礎上,愛語攝受和感化他人。

所以日常生活中,我們要注意身、口、意三業的一致性善良。若意善而言不善,非真善。

並且人類有趨利避害的天性。若有一人經常批評、責備和謾駡你,另一人天天讚美、鼓勵和表揚你,你更願意尊重、親近哪一位呢?相信大家會選擇後者。

語言是力量的,有時勝過千軍萬馬,有時也能積毀銷骨。心直口快的人何不修柔和語與慈悲心?既修口業積口德,又與他人種善因結善緣,收穫尊重和愛戴。

我們“家”的趣事

我們“家”的趣事

我們“家”的趣事

我們的寺院在江南水鄉,這也是我們這些出家人的“家園”,吹著山風、聽著鳥鳴,沉醉在山川雲海之間,山上有無數棵野生茶樹和竹林,春天山上各種花兒齊放,我們採茶刨筍,傾聽鳥兒歌唱;夏日知了聲聲,山風徐徐拂面,陶醉其中;秋日碩果累累,桃李豐盛,收穫滿懷;冬日看白雪皚皚,銀裝素裹,一片潔淨。

寺院裡桂花樹環繞著放生池,池子裡亭臺樓閣,有座觀音亭,南無大悲觀世音菩薩慈眼視眾生,池裡的魚兒歡騰雀躍,晝夜恒時在佛號聲聲中,待那八月桂花盛開,清香芬芳、香氣四溢供養十方諸佛菩薩!!!

一、狗狗“開心”和“樂樂”

我們“家”裡有兩個毛孩兒,一個黃色的叫“開心”,一個黑白相間的叫“樂樂”。

狗狗開心是由於一位出家師父去修理店,小開心一直圍繞著出家師特別親近,不停的用腳扒拉師父,師父也憐愛牠逗牠,但別人家的狗狗也不能奪人所愛吧,這時店主說狗狗這麼喜歡你就給你吧,於是開心第一個來寺院看家護院了。

過了沒多久,一隻小花狗來家了,還不會走路,也是牠的因果因緣吧,眼晴裡老長兩塊息肉,出家師們很心疼牠,住持給牠取名叫樂樂,願牠快快樂樂的。

這下開心吃醋了,一山豈能容下二狗,牠感覺到樂樂來了,牠的專寵專愛要被瓜分了,於是打起了壞心思,悄咪咪的乘大家不注意,把樂樂叼到山上崖邊丟棄,不動聲色返家了。

大家怎麼也找不到樂樂,一師兄上山聽到有哼唧的聲音,才發現是小樂樂,開心也知道東窗事發了,做賊心虛唄,再看到小樂樂時低著頭不敢正視,大家心知肚明,這破事兒除了開心沒別人敢作,當然免不了被狠狠訓斥了一頓,告訴牠要有慈悲心、包容心。

開心也很懂事知道做錯了,從此主動呵護起樂樂,陪牠追逐玩耍,有好吃的盡優先樂樂,把樂樂龐成了小公主。

牠倆結伴在寺廟裡巡邏護持,住持慈悲給牠們皈了依,跟著出家師們一起早晚課、學習,跟著繞佛還真的有模有樣,從不落課,聰明到誰說一句話一個動作就知道幹啥,正因為牠倆太懂事,大家把牠們寵飛了,誰下山辦事開車都帶著牠倆去兜風,坐在車裡狗狗們一副傲驕樣,狗毛迎風舒揚,咧著大嘴巴,伸著舌頭,笑意滿容,看著一路美景飛逝,甭提多得瑟了!

就在牠倆幸福狗生時,意外和無常不知道哪個先到。一天,一位出家師要出去辦事,開心要跟上車,沒帶上牠,誰知牠追到車前面去,視線看不到,當場被壓死,大家難過萬分,分班晝夜為牠助念了7天7夜,祈願開心永脫輪回,再來當護法,護持正法家園長存!樂樂也悶悶不樂幾天不吃不喝!

二、野豬來襲

寺廟裡山上有一片菜地,大家出坡種上了各種蔬菜瓜果,山上野豬野兔比較多,種的玉米、南瓜經常被啃得七零八落。這年的天氣比較乾旱,山頂上的菜地澆水全靠一個池子裡平時下雨積蓄點水,種上的紅薯苗,澆了一星期水才活。看著紅薯苗慢慢長得綠油油一片,葉子還可以當菜,心裡好高興。

有天上山,發現被刨了一大片一大片如耕地似的,好多紅薯被野豬刨出來吃了,更氣人的牠還盡刨大的,還把皮去了吃。看著辛勤勞動的成果被牠糟踏的一塌糊塗,心裡好氣憤,我們還沒吃上就被你先吃上了。

我趕緊跟住持反映,趕緊把剩的紅薯全刨回家吧,要不然幾天下來全吃光了。住持說的,牠要吃就讓牠吃唄,牠也是餓了才來找吃的,不餓急了也不會來,牠們來吃我們要心生歡喜,再說牠們也是我們無始以來的親人,看著親人餓著好可憐,巴不得牠們天天能吃飽不忍饑挨餓,我們隨時要生發菩提心……

我面紅耳赤,太慚愧了!南無第三世多杰羌佛說法《什麼叫修行》中自他平等菩提心:兩相利益對逢時,斷除嗔恨之貪嗔、漫謗之心,不可利己為重,應自他平等對待。我怎麼把佛陀的教誡拋之腦後了呢,更何況一點紅薯而已,更本談不上利益!哎,懺罪懺罪,改過改正!

三、新春寺院裡特別的風景

我們的寺院是個千年古寺,以前只有一個老殿和一幢很舊的老樓,出家人的寮房。年代太久,雖修修補補不濟於事,一刮大風整幢樓搖曳,一下到雨,那是外面下大雨,裡面下小雨,師父們白天那麼忙碌到晚上整宵都沒法休息。

大德住持非常慈悲,寧可自己辛苦受累,非讓居士們住這邊新建的寮房樓,這邊每個房間有衛生間有熱水器,生活沒施一應俱全。

而老療房衛生設施更是簡單,就在樓下共用一個衛生間。今天突然發現排不出水了,大新年的找人來弄這化糞池,那不好找。後來村裡來了兩人來指揮一下這裡那裡要鑿開就走了。

出家師和義工們,不怕苦不怕累,不怕髒不怕臭,找來許多桶和木杠,舀的舀,一對一組的抬,往車上裝的裝,往山下菜地運的運,澆的澆,開開心心的穿梭不絕,忙得不亦樂乎,這兒成了一道特別的風景線。

四、被“誘導”來的老哥倆

一位高個師兄因身患肺癌,家人們無法說服他戒煙戒酒,她女兒沒轍了,就想了個辦法讓他來山上,說這裡山清水秀,空氣又好,來這裡對身體健康好,於是高個師兄就來咱“家”了。

今年又來一小個兒師兄,這個師兄原先在社會上是江湖義氣,打架鬥毆,而他的孩子們都在學佛,看著父親這麼混日子混無常,於是也就誘導讓他來寺廟做義工。

這老哥倆這下志同道合有伴了,經常耐不住要去山下喝點小酒,寺廟不允許抽煙,總背著抽。

有人反映,我們住持說沒有這個緣也不會來寺廟,每個人的因果因緣不同,應機教化也不同,對他們先循序前進,讓他們適應環境,再慢慢熏導,不能一下了把人趕跑了,不再來廟子就少攝受一個人了……!

寺廟裡的活很多,有些活還真不是我們的體力能幹的,這老哥倆是凡事一合計一拍即合,說幹就幹,盡心盡力。

山水沖下來的溝裡常常是雜物堆滿,大家一起把溝清乾淨,從山下拾來鵝卵石,老哥倆拌沙的拌沙,把整個溝裡溝邊用水泥鋪上了鵝卵石,山水蜿蜒曲折流到問心池,池裡荷花搖曳,太美了!

從前一個師兄屬高冷型,專門手插口袋,另一個師兄是混混兒,這一年多來兩人什麼苦活髒活難活累活都搶著幹,不管什麼事二話不說,每天運送垃圾去山下,運水,種地開墾種菜,修繕,雖然他倆都還沒皈依,但到哪裡都能看到這老哥倆忙碌的身影。

如今,高個師兄,面色紅潤,戒了煙了,絲毫看不出是個病人。另一個師兄戒掉了多年煙酒,他說不能在這裡如社會上肆意妄為,不能給咱佛化家庭丟臉,住持慈悲不說我,但我心明似鏡,要尊敬住持,尊重寺廟規矩,不能給廟子拖後腿、丟人了!

更可喜的是,老哥倆從以前的倔強,進了殿堂都不肯拜佛,現在兩人都自願皈依了,他們開心對我說:我們也是佛弟子了呵!

我們的寺院嚴格按照佛陀的教誡行持,在大德住持的行持感召下,大家都很努力精進,把這裡真正當成了自己的家,盡心盡力,讓我們的家更清淨更莊嚴,歡迎更多的眾生來我們“家”學習,一定會讓您受益匪淺、不悔此程!

Announcement No. 20180104:

Put the Three Demon-Detecting Mirrors in Use

During recent years, we at the World Buddhism Association Headquarters have been continuously receiving inquiries regarding upright masters and evil masters, asking for replies in this regard. However, WBAH has given replies to such questions many times publicly through announcements. Furthermore, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III also clearly explained many times the distinctions between what is upright and what is evil and between what is true and what is false. Yet, many of you still act blindly and without a direction in the matter of recognizing and distinguishing whether a master is upright or evil and are unable to decide on whether to continue following your current master or to find and choose another excellent master. Simply speaking, if you do not make recognition according to the announcements and are satisfied with devolving, even all Buddhas in the ten directions are unable to save you!

Now, WBAH provides you with three demon-detecting mirrors, which can enable you to easily see the original forms of such evil persons, regardless of whether they are masters or disciples.

The First Demon-Detecting Mirror: An absolute criterion is to see whether a master makes a big effort to facilitate the disciples to study and broadly propagate the announcements, such as the “Important Replies from Holy Virtuous Ones and Eminent Monastics” from WBAH (the 35 questions with the answers), or not. Any master who does not take measure to enable the disciples to study the announcement well and, rather, only makes propaganda about his/her own articles, writings, books, or other types of undertaking that not only do not refer to the specifics of the announcements but also violate the stipulations in the announcements is definitely an evil master!!!

The Second Demon-Detecting Mirror: Regardless of what status or title the person you follow as your master has, as long as this master’s level obtained from the holy test is not a level within the ranks of holy virtuous persons and yet this master poses as a holy person or instructs the disciples to falsely brag or praise him/her as a holy person, this master is not a holy person. Since such a master imposes rules on the disciples to prevent them from doubting the master and to force them to correspond their three karmas to the master, this is absolutely an ordinary person and is a charlatan!!!

The Third Demon-Detecting Mirror: This is about how to recognize and distinguish holy persons. Holy persons of ancient times have long been known through historical records. Regarding holy persons of the current time, only those who attained the Gold Button levels from taking the written test and the holy exam are holy ones!!! On the other hand, those who did not attain a Gold Button level after taking the examination are not holy ones!!! Anyone who scored a high level of blue buttons can only be an eminent monastic or a great virtuous one.

All those who oppose or persecute holy persons will be included in a name list of malicious persons and will not be conferred an inner-tantric initiation in this entire lifetime!!! If you have already done things that harm holy persons under the instruction of an evil master, then the only way you have is to repent immediately and publicly expose the malicious and demonic evil person who instructed you to create the sin. Then your record will be deleted from the list of malicious persons and you can immediately return to your original status of a cultivator.

These three demon-detecting mirrors can correctly and accurately show the true faces of all evil, malicious, and demonic persons and swindlers!

看梅花占景,
群姿丟色,
妖桃失影。
偶行筆,
幾代風塵。
人間煙火盡移蹤,
唯紙上清芳飄來醒腦。
莞爾醉夢猶然,
多杰羌來,
三世境,
這報土慈悲,
那高人留潔,
筆情,
筆跡,
一笑風塵,
正風塵,
幾代風塵。

To the Tune of “Jiang Jun Song”

 Plum Fragrance in the Holy Realm

Reveal her icy bearing and proud bones,

 See how plum blossom commands the scene,

 The crowd of beauties suddenly lacks color,

 Seductive peach has lost its looks.

A few casual strokes,

So many eons of wind and dust.

The smoke and fire of the human world all disappears,

Leaving only a pure fragrance from the paper,

It wafts over me, awakening my mind.

The smile of the enchanted dream still remains,

 Buddha Vajradhara has come

Three times to this world.

To this Buddha Land of merciful compassion That great one has brought purity, Feelings of the brush, Traces of the brush, One smile in the wind and dust, Now the wind and dust, So many eons of wind and dust.

多杰羌佛第三世p298-p305

這篇歌賦,如同一幅氣勢磅礴又超然脫俗的書畫心境,融合了對梅花風骨的讚美、對歷史滄桑的感嘆,以及深邃的佛學與修行禪意。

梅花的傲骨與超然

「展傲骨冰姿,看梅花占景,群姿丟色,妖桃失影」:

開篇以「將軍頌」為題,卻以梅花借代。梅花在嚴寒中獨自綻放,其「冰姿傲骨」壓倒了世間所有庸俗的花卉。當梅花佔據了天地美景,其他爭奇鬥艷的群芳都失去了色彩,連妖嬈的桃花也顯得黯淡無光。這象徵著一種不隨波逐流、高潔孤傲的聖者人格。

歷史風塵與人間煙火的轉化

「偶行筆,幾代風塵。人間煙火盡移蹤」:

在揮毫落紙的瞬間,彷彿冷眼旁觀了世間幾代歷史的起伏與滄桑(風塵)。隨著筆鋒流轉,世俗的喧囂、名利與執著(人間煙火)都漸漸遠去、消失了蹤影。

「唯紙上清芳飄來醒腦」:
物質的世界會消逝,但宣紙上所留下的墨香與梅花的精神(清芳),卻能穿越時空,讓人當頭棒喝、神清氣爽。

聖境與佛法慈悲

「莞爾醉夢猶然,多杰羌來,三世境」:

這裡進入了更高的宗教與哲學層次。「多杰羌」(金剛總持)在藏傳佛教中代表原始佛、法身佛。在似醉非醉、如夢初醒的法喜中,佛陀的聖境顯現,打破了過去、現在、未來(三世境)的時間限制。

「這報土慈悲,那高人留潔」:

諸佛菩薩為了度化眾生而顯現的「報土」(極樂淨土或清淨世界)充滿了慈悲;而世間的高人、聖者,則透過藝術或修行,為人間留下了高潔的典範與精神財富。

遊戲人間的瀟灑

「筆情,筆跡,一笑風塵,正風塵,幾代風塵」:

最後回歸到落筆的當下。所有的歷史恩怨、世俗紛擾,最終都化為紙上的筆情與筆跡。面對這滾滾紅塵(正風塵、幾代風塵),修行者或智者只是淡然「一笑置之」。這種「一笑」不是無情,而是看破無常後的自在與灑脫。

這是一首藉物抒懷、由藝入道的讚歌。它讚美的不僅是自然界的梅花,更是一位擁有佛法智慧、歷經幾代風塵卻依然保持高潔、慈悲利眾的「精神將軍」。

讓我們欣賞傾聽這視頻對這首《將軍頌 聖境梅香》詩詞歌賦,帶來藉物抒懷、由藝入道的讚歌……

別輕易說自己是佛教徒

世間學佛的人很多,大家因各種緣起而進入佛門。有人為求財而學佛,有人為保平安而學佛,有人為求內心清淨而學佛,有人因家人信佛,自己也就跟隨著信佛了,更有人覺得有點信仰對自己有幫助而學佛了。無論哪種,我們有受用嗎?如果沒有受用,很可能因為你不是一名真正的佛教徒。

可能很多人會說,我怎麼不是?我受了皈依,學佛多年,我恭敬佛菩薩,我在做佛事,不做惡事,多做善事,當然是佛教徒。很多人都這麼自以為是,但很可惜,你未必是真正的佛教徒。

真正的佛教徒是以佛陀為楷模,以我們的身、口、意學佛陀的一切!我們問自己下面這些問題,一句一句慢慢反思對照:

我學佛了嗎?

我學佛的思想了嗎?

我學佛的語言了嗎?

我學佛的行為了嗎?

我修行了嗎?

我對佛菩薩說過假話嗎?

我騙過眾生嗎?

我有按照佛菩薩的教戒去實行嗎?

佛陀把眾生都視為親人來面對,我有學佛陀關心眾生如親人嗎?我做了嗎?做到了嗎?

如果做不到,我做到了多少?

對照完以上問題,再來問自己,你是真正的佛教徒嗎?

面對家人,公婆與自己的父母,愛人與自己父母,是否平等對待?佛教徒應如何面對?大悲平等對待,還是厚此薄彼?

夫妻相處中,家務誰幹多幹少,理解包容程度或多或少,溝通時言語態度好與不好,佛教徒應如何面對?是爭長論短,還是寬容忍讓?

同事之間,利益相爭時,他人遇到困難時,與人有矛盾而不言語談話時,對方惡言相刺我時,佛教徒應如何面對?是斤斤計較,還是忍辱利他?

生活中,或遇到外賣小哥送餐超時,或經常接到推銷產品的電話,或公車上被別人不小心衝撞、踩腳,又或是被不熟練的新手司機擋住前路……這一樁樁小事,作為佛教徒應如何面對?是大發雷霆、強忍怒火,還是冷靜、理性、慈悲對待他人?

當看到饑腸轆轆的流浪貓無助的在角落裡呻吟,被迫離開大自然的大象、海豚等動物被人類馴化表演,當櫥窗陳列各種稀有動物毛皮製品,作為佛教徒應如何面對?是冷漠忽視,還是盡可能表一份善心?

我是佛教徒嗎? 日日反觀,時時對照,真正修行,做一個真正的佛教徒!

HQ Announcement 20200103:

It will be difficult for you to attain accomplishment if you learn the scriptures and Dharma texts that are not approved by the Yidam

Special Attention!

All Buddhists! This announcement is an extremely important one from the World Buddhism Association Headquarters. Everyone must study it seriously and understand it! The headquarters will question and assess everyone who comes. If you do not understand, the holy gurus will not receive you, and you will definitely not be able to participate in any supreme Dharma assembly. As a result, it is impossible to get the opportunity for the Inner Tantric Initiation, let alone the Holy Inner Tantric Initiation. Because you don’t even understand the nature and concept of holy, what qualifications do you have to receive a holy initiation? Therefore, learning to understand this announcement is crucial for your attaining accomplishment! If you forward it in large numbers, the merit will be all the more profound!

Announcement from the World Buddhism Association Headquarters

(Announcement No. 20200103)

It will be difficult for you to attain accomplishment if you learn the scriptures and Dharma texts that HQ Announcement 20200103: It will be difficult for you to attain accomplishment if you learn the scriptures and Dharma text that are not approved by the Yidam

Recently, at the request of Jiaozun Shi Zhengda, a Dharma master of our headquarters, the Shangzuns of the Holy Guru Group revised the traditional recitation texts. They held a Holy Determination based on the Dharma requirements of “Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn” but failed. As a result, the holy gurus deeply felt that they lacked holy virtues and capabilities and were unworthy of Buddhists.

Some Buddhist disciples exaggerated this information and spread it in group practice meetings. They even mistakenly claimed that H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III revised the recitation texts and held the Holy Determination. That was very inappropriate. Namo Chang Buddha had already expressed His stance on the Holy Determination for the recitation texts that He would not participate in the important event of the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn. His reason was in the following words: “I am a humbled body and have no holy capabilities. How can I have the virtue and powers to invoke Buddhas and Bodhisattvas?” So, Namo Chang Buddha asked us to resolve it by ourselves.

The Buddha said: “It would be like looking for a needle in a haystack if it were up to the few of you. Even Kaichu, who has already succeeded in gaining Tummo Fire capabilities and reached the intermediate level of holy virtue and realization in the test of Lifting Pestles onto the Platform, and Wangzha, who is a Shangzun with extraordinary holy power and a holy physique, didn’t succeed in practicing drawing lots to make definitive decisions, did they? I think it’s harder than climbing the sky for you to succeed in drawing lots.

“In fact, for the recitation text, as long as you have the right knowledge, views, learning and conduct, you can directly identify the things that violate Lord Shakyamuni’s teachings in the books. It would be good enough if you could correct them according to the Buddha’s teachings; why bother to do a difficult task that you cannot do? Being who has the inane title of Dorje Chang Buddha III, I don’t have this ability. My waist and hands still hurt from lifting the pestle onto the platform last time. I am just an ordinary practitioner. I only know to believe in cause and effect, teach people to cultivate themselves, refrain from evil, and practice good deeds. I can’t do the holy drawing of lots that you try to do.

“If someday you finally succeed in doing the Holy Determination, you must remember that drawing lots is to benefit others selflessly. You must not use the holy practice of Drawing Lots from a Golden Urn to collect believers’ donations. You must be selfless and of pure virtue. If you really cannot beseech the heavens for determination, ask a Shengzun, who is higher in status than you, to come forward and help.”

The Buddha’s teachings deeply made us feel ashamed. In fact, there is no one in the Buddhist world today whose holy capabilities and powers can come close to those of Jiaozun Kaichu and Shangzun Wangzha. Even if we invite all the great Dharma kings and masters worldwide, it will be useless! Namo Chang Buddha lifted the pestle onto the platform, manifesting the unparalleled holy physique and holy strength that are the powers of a Buddha. However, He insisted on saying that He did not have the holy capabilities and powers and that He was not healthy enough. What can we do?

Since we cannot beseech the Buddha to preside over the drawing of lots, but for all living beings to have the definitive holy recitation texts of the true Dharma, the headquarters has decided to practice the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn. Although our invoking virtues are insufficient, we will never turn back. The World Honored One said: “There are countless Dharma gates, and I vow to learn them.” Buddhas are based on compassion. Will they forsake living beings?

Buddhists! First of all, you need to figure out for yourself whether the Dharma, mantras, theories, precepts, and sutras you are learning are of a holy or secular nature. This is a matter of whether you will escape birth and death or waste your time in reincarnation to suffer! The holiness of Buddha Dharma is not based on somebody’s saying but must be determined by the Holy Determination and definitively confirmed by the Yidam. All holy Dharma texts determined by the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn must have the time, place, witnesses, and physical proof! Anyone who practices the holy Dharma, coupled with the inner-tantric initiation, is ensured of accomplishment.

On the other hand, it isn’t easy to attain accomplishment by practicing secular Dharmas. Some secular Dharma texts can even cause practitioners to have black karma because it has changed its quality. It may look like Buddha Dharma on the outside, but in essence, it is mixed with evil and misleading theories and is no longer the true Dharma.

For example, the traditional morning and evening recitation texts passed down by the patriarchs have extremely serious problems. Now, I will randomly select a few to show you so you can see how terrible they are. We didn’t create anything out of thin air and falsely say that demons modified sutras and precepts recitation texts. Everyone will know this is a fact after reading it.

For example, the recitation text says, “If one sentient being still has not become a Buddha, I will not attain nirvana in this world.” Then, you will never attain accomplishment because there are countless sentient beings. Another example is, “The world’s rarest King Shurangama eliminated all my upside-down thoughts over millions of kalpas and let me obtain the dharmakaya without going through asankhyeyas of time. I hope to achieve the fruit of becoming a jeweled king now.” Suppose the Surangama Sutra and the mantra can eliminate your upside-down dreams of millions of kalpas, and you can obtain dharmakaya and become a jeweled king without going through many asankhyeyas kalpas. Have you become a jeweled king after chanting for so long? No, you have not become a jeweled king. You have become a jeweled idiot. Why are you still an ordinary person today? The truth is clear: this is a mantra tampered with by demons, and it has no effect.

Another example is: “Śūnyatā nature can be destroyed.” How could destruction or resurrection occur if the Buddha-nature does not increase or decrease?

There are restaurants and hotels in Mount Putuo [Note: Mount Putuo is an island off the coast of Zhejiang, China], and all food and accommodation are not free and must be paid for. It is absolutely not “thinking about clothes, you will get clothes, and thinking about food, you will get food.” Instead, the recitation text falsely states that Mount Putuo is a “glazed Buddha-land,” which gravely violates the precept of not lying. The fact is that the supreme Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva once appeared on Mount Putuo, and we must respect Her with the utmost respect.

The recitation text also says, “He who was the Tathagata Zheng-Fa-Ming and now Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.” Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva cannot be a democratically elected official, can He? It sounds like He was elected as Tathagata in the past, but now He was not elected to be a Tathagata and only a Bodhisattva. Is it because He is no longer a Tathagata, hence the phrase: “Now Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva?” This is an absurdity of demonic tampering! The correct saying is: Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva has the supreme and perfect enlightened position and is Tathagata Zheng-Fa-Ming!

Another example is that World-Honored Lord Shakyamuni clearly realized the neither-arising-nor-ceasing True Suchness and attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree in Buddha-gayā, but the Buddha’s Praise falsely changed it to “becoming enlightened in the snow-capped mountains.” Another example is that Lord Shakyamuni attained Buddhahood at the Vulture’s Peak (Gṛdhrakūṭa) Dharma Assembly, but it was falsified into nonsense of the saying, “I wish to meet Lord Shakyamuni at the three Dragon Flowers Dharma Assembly.” The Dragon Flowers Dharma Assembly is where Maitreya Bodhisattva becomes the Jamba Buddha in the future. Indeed, Shakyamuni Buddha did not decide to go to the Dragon Flowers Assembly and personally hand over the cassock, robe and bowl to Maitreya Bodhisattva. Instead, the Buddha gave the cassock, robe and bowl to Venerable Kassapa. Now, Venerable Kassapa has entered samadhi at Huashou Gate of Jizu Mountain in Yunnan, China, waiting for Maitreya Buddha to come to the world to hand over the cassock, robe and bowl to Maitreya Buddha. The demons tampered with the recitation texts and forcibly dragged Shakyamuni Buddha into the Dragon Flowers Assembly, mixing up and fabricating things that are far-fetched.

Here is another example. It clearly should be “all the Buddhas in the world can see everything,” but it was tampered with by the demon’s descendants to “I see everything in the world.” What can you see at all? As an ordinary person learning and practicing Buddhism, what ability do you have to see everything in the world? Aren’t you patently telling lies to the public, deceiving Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and beguiling heaven and earth? You tell lies in the face of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas when you recite the text every day or on the first and fifteenth day of every month; You say false words and lie about your level of realization every time. It is a sin that will cause you to descend to Hell!

Such traditional recitation texts passed down by the patriarchs and sects resulted from the demon’s descendants sneaking into the Sangha and tampering with the true Dharma by adding cancerous evil theories. The purpose was to make the disciples practice the Dharma without success, accumulate serious sins, and fall into the evil path.

For another example, there are serious problems with the scriptures circulating now about the prophecies given by Lord Shakyamuni to those worldly people, Arhats or monks. According to the nature of these prophecies, they are a typical fatalistic and heretical superstitious view that goes against the truth Shakyamuni Buddha told living beings: “All things are governed by cause and effect!” In fact, the level of your achievement, the time it takes, and how much blessings and capability you attain all depends on your learning of Buddha Dharma, cultivation, and Dharma practice. They depend on your planting all kinds of good causes, which result in the fruit of enlightenment in the ever-changing world. Destiny is by no means fixed, and one will not become something or attain some level of accomplishment after a fixed number of kalpas or years. If every living being has a pre-determined destiny, then there is no need to learn Buddha Dharma or practice cultivation. Apart from eating, drinking and having fun all day, they can do all kinds of evil because their destiny has been determined anyway. When the time comes, they will accomplish all blessings in the world and become a transcendental holy person, a king, a minister, an Arhat, or even a Bodhisattva or a Buddha. The fatalistic prophecies are what the devils did after they sneaked into the Sangha. The real prophecy the Buddha gave was based on the cause and effect of the moment. It was never a definitive prediction that disregarded changing one’s conduct between good and bad and varying causes and effects. Therefore, everyone should think about it carefully. Where will the road take you if you don’t learn the correct Dharma teachings and recitations confirmed by the Yidam?

Therefore, the true Buddha Dharma is extremely precious, more than simply an empty phrase: “hard to encounter in hundreds of millions of kalpas” spoken randomly and recorded in books. The real Buddha Dharma is truly difficult to find. The complete three-part ritual, definitively confirmed through the Holy Determination, is by no means open to the public at the market or can be seen casually. Only the sutras, principles, and regular practice rituals can be widely disseminated for the public to learn and practice. However, the widely publicized books, including some throughout Buddhist history, contain many sentences and even contents mixed with good and evil, and even hidden serious sins and errors. Some sutras have not been altered by the devil’s descendants, such as the Diamond Sutra and the Amitabha Sutra, as Told by the Buddha, translated by Dharma Master Kumarajiva, and the Heart Sutra, translated by Master Xuanzang. However, the Holy Determination has yet to confirm many other sutras and Dharmas. Except for a Buddha, an Equal Enlightenment Bodhisattva, or a Marvelous Enlightenment Bodhisattva, no one, including us, dares to judge whether they are right or wrong.

Note that as long as it involves Dharmas, cultivation, and mantras, you must distinguish between holy and secular. The holy Dharma text, cultivation practice, and mantras are those confirmed by the Yidam of the Dharma. For example, the Yidam of the Amitabha Dharma Practice Ritual is Amitabha Buddha. If the Yidam does not approve it, then it is a secular practice or something that has been tampered with by the devil’s descendants! Only the holy Buddha Dharma is the correct and true Dharma.

The function of the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn is to ensure that Buddhists find the correct determination. The origin of the Holy Determination is due to Demon King Mara asking Shakyamuni Buddha if He could allow the devil’s descendants to join the Buddhist Sangha to learn Buddha Dharma. The Buddha thought that devils and demons were also sentient beings that needed to be saved, so He readily agreed to the request of the Demon King. However, the Demon King Mara took this opportunity and had his devil’s descendants put on cassocks to distort the meaning of the scriptures and tamper with the teachings and precepts, Dharma recitation texts, mantras, etc. They have vigorously polluted and distorted the Dharma. So, throughout the world, very few people in temples have attained accomplishment nowadays.

As Buddhist practitioners, we must tell the truth, which makes many people uncomfortable. However, we will not lie to please others; we can only be truthful. For example, at the world-renowned Kathok Monastery, more than one hundred thousand people had practiced Dzogchen and achieved the rainbow body before. It was indeed a remarkable event of authentic Dharma back then. But in recent decades, not a single person achieved the rainbow body. Everyone, including the temple abbots and Dharma kings, is powerless and feeble. Not to mention achieving the rainbow body, everyone ended their lives in illness.

Another example is that many Tantric masters taught the Dharma of Tummo Fire, but none of the gurus who transmitted the Dharma could raise their body temperature. That is the fact today! Why? It is because the devil’s descendants have already joined most temples and tampered with the scriptures and Dharma. In addition, no Holy Determination was made, and no one could invite the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to confirm things definitively. As a result, practitioners could hardly find authentic Dharmas to practice, and we rarely see people attaining accomplishments nowadays.

A well-known figure in Buddhist circles is clamoring that he does not approve of Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn. He says he has never gone through a Drawing of Lots from the Golden Urn but is a great rinpoche nonetheless. The person who says this has never behaved like a holy man at all in his life. Because he is an ordinary person who was mistakenly recognized as a holy man and did not go through the Drawing of Lots from the Golden Urn, he had no choice but to use opposition as a fig leaf to hide his ordinary person’s face.

From ancient times to the present, there are many types of drawing lots, divination, and asking oracles, and many religions have them. As far as Tantric Buddhism is concerned, there are Buddha’s Lots, Avalokitesvara’s Lots, Manjusri’s Divination, Hayagriva’s Secret Practice Bead Trigram, Six-Character Holy Bright Mirror of Definitive Truth, Six-Character Mantra’s Bright Mirror of Choice, Dharma of Divination Wheel, Atisa’s Divination via Dream Visualization, Divination by Turning Tsampa Pill, Drawing Lots from a Golden Urn, Verification Through a Dharma Vessel, Green Tara’s Mirror Altar Dharma, Famen Gongyu’s Reality Bright Mirror, and the Hundred-Dharma Bright Gate Determination in Total Darkness. The most important ones are the non-esoteric Grand Dharmas of direct Buddhist lineage – the five top sacred methods of the Vajra Yidam Reality: Vajra Holy Power Reality Formation, Vajra Pillar Answering People’s Questions, Eight Winds Formation True Measurement Bright Mirror, Vajra Faman Revealing the Clear Image of Reality, and the Holy Dharma Wheel Bright Mirror for Inquires. These five top supreme Dharmas that manifest holy powers are all transmitted by the Buddhas to determine good and evil, right and wrong, true and false. However, they cannot be successfully practiced without the power of a Mahasattva because a holy Dharma vessel is a prerequisite, and only a tremendously holy being of the Mahasattva level or above has such a holy Dharma vessel as the Vajra Seal, Vajra Pillar, Holy Dharma Wheel, Eight-Wind Formation Orders, and the Dharma decree of the Buddha’s Holy Edict Altar.

As for Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn, there are two types, depending on whether it is the secular or the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn. In the secular Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn, you randomly pick out a lot from the bottle. This is a hit-and-miss lottery; it is by chance. If you continue to draw lots a few more times, it will be inaccurate, and you will often not get the lot you drew the first time.

There are more than 100 kinds of fortune-telling from other non-Buddhist religions worldwide. Except for the divination using the 64 hexagrams by those more knowledgeable in the Book of Changes, which has an accuracy of 50 to 60 percent, the others are all fundamentally based on random chances and are inaccurate fortune-telling. Among all so many ways of fortune-telling and formations, only those five top-level Buddhist methods mentioned above are 100% correct! In addition, there are the 21 Tara Merit-Invoked Lots (also known as Langjiu Wangdan [Note: Tibetan: Rnam Bcu Dbang Idan; English: The Design of Gathering Ten Powerful Elements; Chinese:十相自在] Holy Diamond Aquarius Drawing Lots) and Famen Gongyu Bright Mirror for Inquiries. Everyone can draw the Merit-Invoked Lots. It is a holy lottery invoked by boundless justice, righteousness, and moral character. It is the only method different from all the holy determination methods in that it does not rely on preternatural powers but only on cultivating virtue and merit to invoke the Yidam. So, it is called the Merit-Invoked Lots. If a tremendously holy and virtuous one presides over the drawing of the lots, the effectiveness will be 100% accurate. If the lots are secretly sealed and drawn again, the result will be the same as the previous draw without any error.

However, practicing the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn (Merit-Invoked Lots) is a cumbersome process. Before the 21 stipulated procedures, generally speaking, you must practice Dharmas and recite sutras for seven days. Then, on the eighth day after the recitation of sutras, all participants must be present, and the altar is opened. At this time, the tremendously holy one presiding over the ceremony, or a great holy one put forth by a certain sect, temple, religious place, Buddhist hall, Zen nunnery, or charity group participating in the Dharma assembly to prove their organization has a great holy person, will perform the Uncovering the Hidden Terma with Verification, in which they will uncover the hidden secret treasure of the Dharma-Jeweled Mirror of the Green Tara Mirror Altar (also known as the Demon-reflecting Mirror). The Demon-reflecting Mirror can be used to check whether there are any demons among all the participants at the scene. A successful practice of the Uncovering of the Hidden Terma can also be an opportunity to endow holy blessing powers on the Vajra ropes (to benefit world beings).

In case there are multiple holy beings administering the Uncovering of the Hidden Terma, the first holy one uncovering the hidden terma must not verbally reveal the results publicly but will only secretly mark the location of the hidden treasure on a piece of paper. All the holy ones who uncover the hidden terma will identify the treasure’s position and secretly write down the platform number, too, and then everyone takes out their paper to cross-verify. You must not break the precepts, lie about having the capability, and rely on your imagination to guess it. Otherwise, you will plant the cause of going to Hell. Ordinary eminent monks and great virtuous ones cannot see where the hidden terma treasure is. It takes a great holy being with incredible powers to uncover the hidden terma treasure with verification.

Why must the hidden terma be uncovered on the eighth day? It is because, on the ninth day, we will officially enter the main hall and hold the holy Drawing of Lots from the Golden Urn. At that time, the Buddhas will seal off and block the main hall of the holy Drawing of Lots from the Golden Urn, so no holy power or capability can be of any use. Therefore, the terma must be uncovered on the eighth day, when the great holy gurus can apply their holy realization powers to uncover the hidden terma and take out the secret treasured mirror.

In the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn, Kalachakra Vajra is the Yidam, and each of the 21 Taras is in charge of a procedure. This is not the conventional secular drawing of lots from the golden urn, where one casually takes out a lot from the golden urn, and that’s it. The lots must be made according to iron-clad rules and regulations, and the process must be completed according to 21 Dharma-stipulated procedures. The process from making lots to drawing lots is all carried out under the watchful eyes of the public, and nothing can be changed or missing! The first fifteen rules and regulations for making lots must be implemented individually and in sequence by the public themselves (the person in charge of drawing lots is not allowed to participate in making lots or watch the making of lots). Only after the people have made and secretly sealed the lots can they be put into the vajra urn. Then, the lid of the urn is closed, and the urn is taken to the Dharma altar. Afterward, they will proceed to the 16th procedure, where the person who presides over the drawing will start drawing lots in front of the people attending the meeting. A total of ten lots must be drawn when drawing lots. Each drawing must abide by the rules and be accurate, and no mistake can happen to any of the ten lots. If there is any error, the twelve lot makers will have to put the plates into the lots by only touching them under the satin cloth, then put the lots into the lot bag and seal it. Then, the administering guru will draw another round. The lots drawn in this second round must be identical to the first round. That proves that the holy Drawing of Lots from the Golden Urn is successful and that the person who presides over the lot drawing is truly a tremendously holy guru. On the contrary, if the lots drawn in the second round are different from the lots drawn in the first round, it proves that the character of the lot-drawer cannot inspire Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to come to the scene, and it also proves that the lot-drawer does not have the virtue of a Buddha or Bodhisattva! The lots drawn are invalid and not holy or definitive in nature!

From a historical point of view, in terms of presiding over the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn, Only the real tremendously holy gurus, such as Master Padmasambhava, Master Tsongkhapa, Master Marpa, Master Anatta, and Venerable King Suchandra, could have the power to preside over and inspire. Others, no matter what kind of famous Buddhist figure one is, no matter how famous one is, Even if he has a high status and is famous all over the world, as long as he is a fake Bodhisattva, he definitely does not have the virtue to preside over the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn!

Since those fake people cannot perform the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn, to cover up their faces as ordinary people pretending to be holy, they have no choice but to slander and oppose it strongly. A nominally so-called Great Dharma King said that he did not know the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn but only knew the Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn that was reinforced and recognized by the old dynasty’s government. That is very normal. If he knew the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn, he would be a great holy guru. What qualifications and opportunities does an ordinary person pretending to be a holy being have to see the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn? They are like farmers who grow crops or herders who herd cattle and sheep. They don’t know how to mine iceberg rocks, what the diamonds from South Africa are about, or how spaceships can carry people to the moon. There are many things you don’t know. A layperson wouldn’t know what is happening inside the circle, and a Bodhisattva of the first bhumi wouldn’t know what a Bodhisattva of the second bhumi is doing. How could a Bodhisattva know the state of a Mahasattva? Even now, Maitreya Bodhisattva still does not know everything about Shakyamuni Buddha’s supreme enlightenment!

However, our headquarters will make the rules, regulations, and procedures for the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn public. This announcement may inspire a Buddha or a Mahasattva to come and help the headquarters fulfill its wish of benefiting and saving living beings. We will be so grateful if that turns out to be the case.

The presiding guru of the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn must essentially be a Buddha, Marvelous Enlightenment Bodhisattva, Equal Enlightenment Bodhisattva or a Mahasattva. Only then can He have the virtue and qualifications to invite the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to enter the altar and personally confirm the determination. Any other great holy and virtuous one, and even a Dharma King, Rinpoche, Dharma Master, etc., who claims to have “great supernatural powers and boundless capabilities” are unable to practice the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn because, in the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn Dharma Assembly Hall, the divine powers are worthless; the Buddhas will seal everything. No matter how powerful one is, they will not be able to use it. The Yidam will only be inspired by virtues. Because anyone can draw in the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn, there is no need for feudalistic superstition or mysterious and strange powers. Anyone can come to draw the lots as long as his moral character is pure and he selflessly benefits others. Therefore, Uncovering the terma to retrieve the treasured mirror must not occur in the sealed-off grand hall on the ninth day when no holy realization capability is of use. Otherwise, the terma treasure cannot be uncovered in the holy sense.

Those who can attend the Dharma assembly and witness the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn must have the blessings and dharma conditions cultivated since beginningless time. It is difficult for one out of 10,000 Buddhists to have such a wonderful cause. Anyone who can attend the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn Dharma Assembly with this wonderful cause and has established tremendous merit in guarding true Dharma and practically undertaking Buddhist tasks will naturally plant powerful holy Dharma causes. Such people will easily pass the Holy Determination for inner tantric initiation, and the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will personally come to the altar of the initiation before you to accept you. Therefore, this is not an empty statement of “hard to encounter in millions of kalpas” that is often seen in books.

Finding anyone who can practice the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn in the Buddhist world is difficult. Because of the decline of true Buddha Dharma, those unscrupulous ordinary people, those fake Dharma kings and fake rinpoches, who are mistakenly certified as holy, do not have the virtuous state to achieve the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn, so they can only protest, oppose, and disapprove it. They say, “There is no such thing as Drawing Lots from Golden Urn” to cover up their shame.

Some great Dharma kings, great rinpoches, and great Dharma masters with significant fame but no real power or realization capability cannot run away fast enough from the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn! They fear it because they don’t have the morals nor the capabilities of the tremendously holy gurus such as Guru Padmasambhava, Master Tsongkhapa, Master Marpa, Master Nairatmya, King Suchandra, etc. Suppose the holy Drawing Lots from a Golden Urn is mentioned, but they can’t show the virtue of invoking Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to be present to determine the result. In that case, aren’t they just embarrassing themselves and asking for bad luck on the spot? It is just like Lifting the Pestle onto the Platform, which fake Buddhas and Bodhisattvas avoid as much as possible because they know very well that they are ordinary people with feeble bodies pretending to be holy ones to deceive laypeople. They have no real Buddha Dharma and no trace of the holy body composition. If they try Lifting the Pestle onto the Platform, they will only be embarrassed and out of luck. Only those truly holy and virtuous people who have realized the holy constitution and holy strength can lift weights 12 levels above their regular grade!

In fact, ever since Demon King Mara made his evil vows, a large number of unscrupulous figures and evil masters have entered the Buddhist world, pretending to be the patriarchs of some generations but are actually fake, pompous, and empty. Their five internal organs are exhausted, their bodies are weak, and they have no holy power. They cannot even lift the vajra pestle, which barely meets their baseline level, off the ground. What else can these fakes, who pretend to be holy beings with the body and mind of evil ordinary people, do except oppose and vigorously slander the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn to cover up their ugliness? What poor men they are!

Let’s all think about a simple but scientific and realistic question: regardless of the identity of the opposers, whether they are a Dharma king or a top figure, or what kind of Buddha or incarnation of a great Bodhisattva everyone praises, or a combined incarnation of however many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, etc., How can they not dare to preside over the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn and invite the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to come and show Their holiness if they are indeed a great holy being, a reincarnated Buddha or Bodhisattva? Can he be a great Bodhisattva if he doesn’t dare to draw ten lots? Where is his virtue as a tremendously holy and virtuous one? Is there anything that a Buddha, a Marvelous Enlightenment Bodhisattva, or an Equal Enlightenment Bodhisattva cannot do to benefit all sentient beings?

The highest and most tremendously holy guru must possess “five measurable qualifications.” They are:

  1. Possessing the enlightenment and realization of self-nature (the practical realization of understanding one’s mind and seeing one’s true nature).
  2. Possessing the practical realization of a holy body (manifesting holy constitution and holy strength).
  3. Possessing the realization of virtues (achieving the virtue to inspire Buddha and holy beings).
  4. Possessing external Dharma powers (can use vast and strong Dharma powers).
  5. Possessing the realization of the Five Vidyas (achieving perfection in the Five Vidyas).

Which item do you possess? If there is not even one, but you still sit on the chair of a holy being, aren’t you an ordinary person sitting on the holy throne?

In particular, the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn requires the third item – possession of the realization of virtues. Without it, you will not be able to draw lots successfully. Suppose you have not demonstrated virtues to inspire the Buddha and the holy beings. In that case, you cannot communicate with the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas or inspire the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to enter the altar to confirm the result definitively. That is why you cannot preside over the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn.

To preserve their false reputation and long-term vested interests, some people have no other trick but to oppose the holy Drawing of Lots from the Golden Urn. However, the problem comes again. As an ordinary person, you cannot even practice the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn yourself; how can you criticize the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn when the real Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are present?

No matter whether you are a great Dharma King, a great rinpoche, or a great master, since you claim that your teachings are the true Dharma, then you can show your “Possession of Virtues” to prove to everyone that you are qualified to say that your teachings and recitation texts are authentic religious teachings. Or, if you display any of the “Five Possessions of Qualification” for everyone to see, you will be considered to have the authentic Dharma.

Whether it is true is not based on your historical lineage or empty words. Storytellers are better at making up stories than you. Use your moral conduct and virtues to practice the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn. Let the public examine you. Instead, you just stand there shouting words of opposition and not recognizing the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn, and you can only brag about yourself to deceive laypeople, confuse everyone, and make them mistakenly believe that you, an ordinary person, are a great holy one, and hold the true Dharma. Although your appearance is bright and beautiful, your inner quality is indeed fake, and you are nothing but an ordinary person pretending to be a Buddha and a Bodhisattva! It’s not that we look down on you. We are not asking you to show you possess all five qualifications. We ask that you present one of the five possessions: “the self-realization of perfection in the Five Vidyas.” If you can’t even do it, what kind of Bodhisattva are you? So, repent and practice well.

It is conceivable that after seeing our announcement, some important Buddhist figures will be ignorant and worry about it and start slandering it themselves. We greatly welcome you to label yourself the target of our announcement so that we can examine your essence. Come to the Holy Miracles Temple to lift the pestle onto the platform to prove that you have the physical constitution and strength of a true holy being. Show the virtue required for practicing the holy Drawing Lots from the Golden Urn. We will sincerely and respectfully receive you as a distinguished guest.

你的人生是否和那個“放羊娃”一樣?

你的人生是否和那個“放羊娃”一樣?

你的人生是否和那個“放羊娃”一樣?

人生的意義是什麼,是物質享受的滿足?是名利地位的追逐?是詩和遠方的嚮往?哪一種說法都不曾在我心中泛起漣漪,而唯獨一個放羊娃的回答讓我記憶猶新。

有個人看到一個小孩在放羊,就問放羊娃:“你放羊是為了什麼呢?”小孩兒回答:“賣錢蓋房子。”那人又問:“蓋房子幹嘛?”小孩兒回答:“娶媳婦生娃。”那人又問:“生娃幹嘛?”小孩兒不假思索地說:“生娃放羊唄。”

第一次聽到放羊娃的故事,我心中滿是惆悵和悲傷。放羊——掙錢——娶媳婦——生孩子——放羊,這是多麼悲哀和愚癡的人生啊!也許很多人和我一樣似乎都把自己置身事外,覺得自己高於放羊娃一等,覺得自己受過良好的教育,有好的工作,自己的人生才是有理想有意義。

其實,我們與放羊娃又有什麼區別呢?靜下心來想想,我們每天睜開眼睛就是穿衣、吃飯、工作、睡覺,日復一日,年復一年,不停地重複著這單調的生活。很多人和我一樣不也是在“讀書——工作——結婚——生孩子”的路上一步步走過來的嗎?而我們的孩子也正在重蹈著我們的人生軌跡,我們不都是那個陷入閉環的“放羊娃”嗎?

“人生的意義是什麼”,古往今來,眾說紛紜,然而對很多人來說,這是一個千思百轉而無解的命題,迷茫的人們也只能在忙忙碌碌、人事糾結和煩惱中度過。因為大多數人不知道人還有來世,不明白當下我們所做的一切與今生、與來世有什麼關係,因此必然會執著這個“我”,為我的子女,為我的財富,為我的地位,為我的面子……一切自私為我。

一切為“我”的人生,必是痛苦糾結的人生。一生為情和愛所累,心中總有放不下的人和事,恩恩怨怨,煩惱糾結;不懂煩惱痛苦的根源來於自身的執著,總是把痛苦歸咎於他人,對他人心生抱怨和嗔恨。

一切為“我”的人生,必是欲壑難填而迷茫的人生。為了滿足自己的各種欲望,我們不知做了多少迷離顛倒的錯事,甚至傷生害命而造下了累累惡業;不懂佈施的我們,只知一味地索取,一直都在追求財富的路上勞累奔波,心中充滿了無休止的貪欲。

有幸的是,今生我遇到了降世佛陀親傳的純淨無偏的佛法,聞聽南無第三世多杰羌佛說法,猶如醍醐灌頂,心中豁然開朗。佛陀的《藉心經說真諦》、《極聖解脫大手印》等法著,完美地闡述了人生與宇宙的真諦,人生眾多的迷霧,在我心裡一一明朗起來。我終於明白,沒有佛法指導的人生,必然是暗淡的人生,結局只能走入閉環,生生世世走不出“放羊娃”的套圈。唯有佛法讓我真正明白了人生的意義,佛法猶如一道燦爛的光照亮了我的人生。

我的人生不再迷茫,我找到了提升自我、走向光明的人生之路。

我明白了人生無常,抓緊時間修行才不辜負這暇滿人身;我明白了善惡有報,行善積德、遠離惡業才能幸福吉祥;我明白了佈施的意義,付出的人生才有收穫;我明白了放下自私我執才能心生快樂;我明白了多生累劫的一切眾生皆是我的父母親人,與人為善、善待生命,世界才能祥和……

萬劫千生我們今生才擁有了這寶貴的暇滿人身,要種下善業的功德,今生來世才有幸福快樂;如果只知追逐世俗享樂,造諸惡業,下一世也不可能有人身了,只能變豬、變狗、變餓鬼、下地獄,在輪回的苦海中永無出頭之日。

生而為人,行善積德是我們的必修課,必然會為我們帶來無量的福德;而行善種下的只是人天福報,改變不了生老病死和輪回的痛苦。利用寶貴的人身學佛修行,脫離輪回苦海到達永恆幸福的彼岸,這才是人生最重要的意義!

這五種迷信行為很常見,卻常被誤認為是信佛,您怎麼看

這五種迷信行為很常見,卻常被誤認為是信佛,您怎麼看

這五種迷信行為很常見,卻常被誤認為是信佛,您怎麼看

有一天,我路過一攤位買農家自種的芋子,發現攤主多找錢了,立刻退還攤主。

擺攤的說:“大姐,你真好”。

我告訴她,我是學佛的,不能貪人錢財。

“我也是信佛的,初一十五都去倪公殿燒香、吃齋。”

一聽此話,我確定她不懂什麼叫信佛,但這種將迷信當信佛的大有人在。

有五種迷信的行為很常見,卻常被認為是在信佛。

迷信一:每逢佛誕日、初一十五,信眾們三五成群,相約去寺廟或者XX殿燒香、禮佛、吃齋,除了自個享用齋飯外,還打包成大袋小袋,滿載而歸,並奉勸家人一同分享,吃了就能保平安。

試問,若壞人吃了它,也能逢凶化吉、永保平安,那還要修行幹什麼?

豈不只要多吃幾碗就可,這樣的話,因果何在呢?

迷信二:每逢清明、七月十五,或親人離世時,在世親人便會給亡者折金元寶,焚燒紙錢,有的甚至還會燒去別墅名車、丫環冥幣等等,希望亡者有房有車、有錢有美女,日子過得逍遙又滋潤。

可他們哪會知道,其實黃泉路上無有旅店,無有賓館,只有孤獨恐怖,心慌饑餓,那時的亡者只能獨自一魂飄蕩陰間。

即使世人燒去再多的紙錢元寶、香車別墅,對於亡者也毫無意義,最多只能是對世人的一種自我安慰罷了。

迷信三:有一年正月初四早上,老家的大街上,熱鬧非凡,家人告訴我:“迎佛啦,快快去看。”

只見,一支長龍式的隊伍迎面而來,身著統一服裝,花花綠綠,前排的人舉著“佛”的牌子,接著幾人抬著轎子,裡面有一尊塑像。

隊伍中有的手持各種旗幟,有的敲鑼,有的打鼓,沿路不時燃放鞭炮。

我認真觀看,才知道,轎子裡抬著的是當地民間供奉的X公的神像,而不是佛像。

他們神佛不分,竟然把神當成佛,真是可笑無知。

迷信四:有的人,家裡一有什麼事情(如高考、提幹、親人遭遇災禍等等),就會到寺廟。

挑選最高最大根的香,又是進香,又是磕頭,無比虔誠地祈求佛菩薩保佑,保佑金榜題名,保佑升官發財,保佑平安健康等。

像他們這樣,通常都會向佛菩薩表明心意:若能實現願望,將會以多少元寶、財物作為答謝等等。

這種現象我看到身邊的人很多,有的人,他們的方式更可笑。

比如,微信中的“萬人合唱《阿彌陀佛》,轉發一次,等於磕頭十萬次功德……”,或發個帖子,在多少天內轉發多少人就能得到財運、福報等。

迷信五:記得小時候,生病了,母親會帶我去一個人家裡,說明來意後,那人就點燃香,口中念念有詞。

接著就說是XXX來了,並說小女的病是因什麼什麼而起,要如何如何,並且會開上藥方,交代怎麼服用。

後來,即使母親皈依了佛門,只要在老家,她總是不會忘記向附近一個附體的“陳夫人”進香並供奉食物。

其實母親雖然好似皈依了,但實際並未真正明白佛理,才會這麼離不開“陳夫人”。

以上這些都屬於封建迷信,妖言惑眾,它們不僅違背因果,否認因果,甚至還在無明中玷污了偉大光明的佛菩薩。

把大慈大悲、純淨無私的諸佛菩薩,等同為於可用錢財做等價交易,看成是可以討價還價、貪欲強盛的凡夫俗子。

唉!殊不知這種行為,早已種下了十惡不赦的因果罪業,可憐可悲啊!

筆者未接觸佛教正法之前,因長時間接受長輩們的傳導,潛移默化學著做,從而習慣成自然,便認為佛教就是這樣,認為他們的這種行為再正常不過了。

幸好後來學到正法,恭聞了南無第三世多杰羌佛的法音,恭讀了南無羌佛的佛書,才恍然大悟。

原來自己錯了這麼多年,原來那些根本就是違背因果的邪知邪見,怪力亂神、封建迷信,是佛教界的亂象。

茫茫人海,芸芸眾生,朝聖者趨之若鶩,其不乏是有所祈求,為了世俗的平安健康和名聞利養居多,迷惑盲信者數不勝數。

真正懂得佛教行持的教規、教戒、教義者有幾人?

羌佛說法告訴世人:要遠離封建迷信、怪力亂神、遠離邪師騙子、附佛外道,遠離邪教邪書等。

一定要嚴持戒律,大悲為本,諸惡莫作,眾善奉行,要知萬法皆因果,要從修行入手。

學佛修行正知正見最關鍵,是首要的,有了正知見才談得上修得正,對照踐行,否則不是自己騙自己,就是徒勞無功。

因為我們學佛就是要以佛陀作為楷模,學習佛陀的思想、言行,依照佛陀的教導行持。

把自己磨練成一個純善、慈悲、利益大眾的好人,進而向聖者的行列靠攏,而不是搞弄那些封建迷信、怪力亂神、背離因果的行為。

HQ Announcement 20200102:

Correct Group Study –A Group Study Shall Not Deviate from The Topics 

Nowadays, Buddhists worldwide are organizing and joining online study group classes, which is an excellent deed with innumerable merits. However, some study group organizers with erroneous views have strayed into the scheme of Mara the Demon King. A study group provides a platform to share and guide Buddhist studies. However, some organizers have deviated from the topics and turned into a disguised Buddhist discourse that distorts Dharma by citing and referencing erroneous and heretical Buddhist content. Their speeches, compiled with Buddhist phrases and terminologies, may incessantly continue for a lengthy period. It obscured the topics of the study and made a precious group study class not only depart from the focus but become a waste of time. It derailed from Dharma practices and cultivation and attended to useless subject matters. The upshot is that escaping and liberating from samsara is still unreachable. It precisely fits into the scheme of the Demon King.

This situation dumbfounded the Holy Gurus at the Headquarters. You should ask yourself: Have you achieved any accomplishments? Are you already a great holy person? Is the Buddhist doctrine you used to guide the study accurate or biased? If there are grave errors in the principle, it will lead study group members straight to the three evil realms of samsara. If you don’t even understand the Buddhist doctrine, what qualifies you to guide others? It will only misguide the participants down a path following the mundane views of the mundane organizer. If the organizer takes any excerpts from Tripitaka and believes they are accurate, it means the organizer has forgotten that Shakyamuni Buddha agreed to let mara-descendants into the Sangha. Therefore, the organizer committed a sinful error because most Buddhist texts, including Sutra, Vinaya, Shastra, and even some sutras with the same title, show inconsistent phrasings and lengths. That means they are erroneous Buddhist texts.

At this moment, people may question if my comment is a fallacy and blasphemy against Buddhavacana. It is the opposite. Consider this. Am I the one who is protecting and defending the faithful Dharma of Shakyamuni Buddha, or are you the one who is so stupid and confused that you have drifted into an evil mara-state?

You are not stupid or confused if you can answer the following questions. Is the Shurangama Mantra that you recite authentic? Is the Shurangama Mantra you recite the genuine Shurangama Mantra expounded by the Buddha? Regardless, you won’t be able to answer.

Here is my advice: Wait until you see how many versions of Shurangama Mantra there are below. Nevertheless, the fact is that the Buddha indeed expounded Shurangama Mantra once. Therefore, mara-descendants have tampered with and distorted all other versions besides the original one.

Similarly, all dharmas expounded by the Buddha have only one genuine version because the Buddha expounded each dharma once. Additionally, some dharmas may be transmitted again due to different dependent originations with different intentions and meanings. It is definite that there is only one genuine version of each dharma. All others are inaccurate, even fallacious. For example, the text in Volume 7 of the Shurangama Sutra says: “At that time, the World Honored One emitted a hundred rays of brilliantly jeweled light from his ushnisha. Amidst the lights, a thousand-petalled sacred lotus arose. Upon the precious flower sat a transfiguration of Thus Come One. The crown of His head emitted ten rays of iridescent light auspiciously. Throughout the empty void, vajra-panis, as many as the sands of ten Ganges rivers, appear amidst the light, each holding a mountain aloft and wielding a vajra pestle…” The World Honored One is the Thus Come One. Why undertake an extra venture to transfigure a Buddha from His crown before expounding the mantra? Why would the Buddha conduct such an unnecessary act? It is too pretentious.

Furthermore, the Ganges River is in India. It is a burial site for the deceased. It absolutely lacks the energy of a sacred river. The Buddha, the World Honored One, used “the innumerable grains of sand of the Ganges River” to describe an infinite number of Buddhas in the ten directions, an unlimited number of living beings, or an endless number of deceased corpses in the Ganges River. All living beings possess Buddha Nature, so the innumerable grains of sand of the Ganges River are used as an analogy. It does not mean that the Ganges River or its sand is sacred. If the Buddha wishes to manifest a divine state through the light, He will manifest a Buddha-kshetra instead of the earthly Ganges River. 

Furthermore, the text is written as “ten Ganges Rivers sand.” It is ambiguous because there is only one Ganges River in India. Therefore, does it mean to say the sand of ten Ganges Rivers or ten grains of Ganges River’s sand? 

The Holy Gurus wish to ask you: Is the Shurangama Mantra you recite authentic? There is only one genuine Shurangama Mantra, with more than ten versions, each with various wordings and lengths. Some came with 427 sentences, some 439, 554, 158, 487, 426, etc. Can you tell us which the original Shurangama Mantra personally and verbally expounded by the World Honored One is? Since Shakyamuni Buddha only expounded this mantra once, it suffices to say that none of the current versions of the Shurangama Mantra is trustworthy.

On the other hand, Shakyamuni Buddha indeed expounded Shurangama Mantra once and expounded clearly to Buddhist disciples that there are 50 types of inner demons. Therefore, the language of the Shurangama Mantra is clear and concise. Another example is the Heart Sutra. It also has many different versions, some with more words and some with less. Therefore, all practitioners must ask themselves: “Is the sutra I learned holy or mundane?” “Do I learn the genuine dharma expounded by Shakyamuni Buddha?” and “If it is holy, has it been validated by a holy adjudication and recognized by the Yidam?”

Remember, in studying the Supreme and Unsurpassed Mahamudra of Liberation as an example, it is essential to guard against derailment from the topics and dilution with phrases and terminologies from other Buddhist texts such as Sutra, Vinaya, Shastra, etc. It would result in neglecting the essential core of the study and attending to the irrelevancies. The focus of the study would become ambiguous as it defiles the correct learning. It would be like watching a bird by its reflection on the water because it shifts the focus to secondary or irrelevant issues and renders the study counterproductive. The Headquarters has made numerous announcements stating that people lower than the Holy Gurus of the Three Gold Buttons ranking are not qualified to give lectures, and even the Holy Gurus of the Three Gold Buttons ranking cannot provide perfect and complete teachings of Buddha Dharma. Therefore, considering your current realization state and level, even if you think you have understood the genuine Buddhavacana expounded by Shakyamuni Buddha and Buddhist terminologies, you are, at best, a Buddhist scholar who is inherently still a mundane person.

The vital truth is that a great holy person must satisfy the five requisites. If you have not attained all five, you should at least master one. “Five Requisites Lead to Self-realization of Five Perfections” is an example. You have not mastered even one, yet you dared to quote from the sutras or shastras and mix righteousness with evil. How can you call it a group study?

Nevertheless, we are sure you are not mara-descendants but pious Buddhist disciples. However, with your erroneous views, you were bamboozled by Mara the Demon King so that you helped him distort the sutras, desecrate the doctrines and waste cultivators’ time. Yet you are still oblivious to the situation! However, since you have initiated the study groups, all Buddhas from the ten directions will remember your merits.

A correct group study provides equal opportunity to all participants. After listening and practicing the Dharma expounded by Namo Dorje Chang Buddha III, every participant shares their thoughts, perspectives and understanding. At the end of a session, the organizer should lead all participants to draw a consensual summary and conclusion. The organizer should not occupy most of the study time to speak on subjects that deviate from the topics and arbitrarily impose time limits on other participants. The organizer should not cut any participant off while sharing and delivering critiques out of context. Nor should the organizer act with pompous self-importance and suspend a talk haphazardly. These behaviors and attitudes will only leave all participants confused. 

In addition, some participants’ cultivation and realization levels may be higher within a study group than the organizer’s. They may recognize the organizer’s erroneous views and feel pity for them. Consequently, they will leave the study group.

On the other hand, suppose an organizer faithfully conducts and manages a discussion with the group to truly understand the meaning of the Dharma expounded by Namo Dorje Chang Buddha III. In this case, the merit is indeed immeasurable.

To sum up, it is crucial to put all study group participants on equal ground, go straight to the topics, and focus on the meaning of the learning. If a presentation does not deviate from the theme, the presenter should be allowed to finish the speech. However, the talk should be suspended and rectified if it is derailed. A correct study group should enable all participants to summarize and draw conclusions together at the end of the session. Only in this way is it a valid group study to learn from Buddha and practice Buddhist cultivation, and it is the foundation for practitioners to accelerate their merit accumulation.
