Chapter 1095: Special Wishes
In fact, it is not difficult to understand this point of view: what people usually say about the miracle must be the miracle of the world's law, seeking wealth and wealth, seeking health and health, asking for dependents to get dependents, and seeking relief from disasters...... That is, what is sought by reality and can be quickly effective, it is called a miracle.
And the Dharma Protector of the Heavens, his blessings to the Dharma of the world are inherently uncommon and fast. Dharma protectors are the root of the cause, Buddha-figures are the root of Siddhi, and Guru is the root of blessings. Therefore, many people say that Thailand's four-faced Buddha is effective, and the five masters of Wutai Mountain have everything they need, because the great heavens, where their responsibilities are, often bless all living beings to fulfill their wishes.
The blessings of the heavens such as the Firm Earth God and the Great Auspicious Heavenly Maiden are very fast, and there are many cases in reality. The requirements and precepts of the Heavenly Division for Dharma cultivation are inevitably different from those of the Supreme Buddha Division.
In other Buddhist Buddha-figure methods, it is necessary to practice with bodhichitta and have a spiritual response, but this wonderful sound is different. Since he is a common Buddha-figure of both Hinduism and Buddhism, it is best for us to practice with bodhichitta, but if we practice his method without the foundation of bodhichitta, we will also have spiritual responses. This is a case of exception.
In Han Buddhism, there is not much promotion and practice of the Celestial Maiden of Debate, which is related to the karma of the Han land. How so?
We, the sentient beings of the Han land, have a strong root machine since ancient times, with a Mahayana atmosphere, and Zen Buddhism and Pure Land Buddhism are the mainstream sects. Zen Buddhism has always advocated not teaching outside the teaching, not establishing words, seeing the nature of the mind, and becoming a Buddha on the ground. That is, he advocates seeing nature and getting rid of life and death, as expensive as Pei Xiu can also enter the Tao, and poor as a beggar, he can also be enlightened.
The Pure Land sect emphasizes renunciation, does not dwell on the small fruits of human beings, and does not climb the realm of heaven and man. Therefore, under such a great origin, the Han patriarch did not specifically provide for the Dharma protectors of the heavens. Although there is a fasting ritual, it is also done on special days, not as in tantric daily offerings, and it is done diligently. or for the conservation method, day after day without interruption.
In the Golden Light Sutra of the Han Dynasty, the Eloquent Heavenly Maiden has a systematic practice. Tibet also attaches great importance to the Celestial Maiden Method, and Lama Tsongkhapa has also achieved this Dharma, and often receives the help of the Celestial Maiden. For example, in Lama Tsongkhapa's Collection of Causes and Conditions, it is mentioned that:
Seeing this, Rinpoche was even more pleased, and in order to develop his wisdom as soon as possible, he specially taught Manjushri the Five Characters and the Myatic Sound Goddess to him to practice.
In the first or second year of his reign, when the master was meditating on the Celestial Maiden, he felt that the Celestial Maiden appeared to speak the Dharma and taught all the rituals, so that he attained immeasurable and inconceivable merits. Since then, the master has made various praises, prayers, writings, etc., and the sentences and elegance are solemn, which can be said to be the pinnacle of the statement.
During this period, the Lady of Miaoyin also instructed the master: "You can only live to be fifty-seven years old, so you should do something in time that is of practical benefit to yourself and others." The master asked her, "Isn't it possible to prolong your life by cultivating the rituals of the Buddha's Mother and so on?"
The Celestial Maiden replied, "Ordinary people can prolong their lives by practicing these tantric methods. However, because of your wishes in past lives and your deep joy and optimism, practicing these tantric practices can only be the cause for increasing your wisdom, and I am afraid that it will not really help you to prolong your life. ”
The reason why Lama Tsongkhapa was unable to practice Tantra to prolong his life was because of the Master's special will, and his practice of the Buddha's Mother Dharma to prolong his life turned into merit for increasing wisdom.
This is also the kind of special people in the world, because of the power of their wishes before reincarnation, some fates cannot be changed by cultivating the Fa. If a person who lives in the world and makes a vow, and the world is pure and Sanskrit, after reincarnation, he is often a single person, and even if he cultivates the Fa, it is difficult to get married. Others who seek careers are effective, but they are ineffective in one aspect.
There is a systematic cultivation method of the Heavenly Maiden in the Golden Light Sutra, and there are different shapes and cultivation methods on the side of the island country Dongmi, such as the two-armed debate Caitian, the eight-armed debate Caitian, and the Yuhe debate Caitian. The legendary secret legend of the five parts of the Debate Heaven is said to be the secret transmission of the three Tibets that are not empty. What is not available on the Internet is not included in the Tripitaka.
First, the Buddha said that the most victorious protector of the country Yuhe Yadun got the wishful jewel Dharani Sutra;
Second, the Buddha said that the body is poor and turns to good fortune, and the god of Yuga will show the Bodhisattva and the white snake to achieve the sutra in three days;
Three, the Buddha said that the Uga God King Fu Perfection Dharani Sutra;
Fourth, the Buddha said that Daewoo He God merits and debates the scriptures;
Five, the Buddha said that the great debate is the secret Dharani Sutra.
The island country also has the inheritance of the nine-headed dragon Biancaitian, the source of which is that the nine-headed dragon Biancaitian stood at the pillow of their founding patriarch Masaro Onishi and granted him the entrustment of the gods: to turn your body into a shrine, save immeasurable sentient beings, and immediately give protection in the form of miracles, and the gods save people and ascend to the fairy world.
His ancestor later helped the baseball team pray for victory, helped some large companies save many years of losses, and survived crises.
In the "Golden Light Most Victorious King Sutra", there are three ways to debate talent:
The method of bathing with mantras.
Set up an altar to pray and chant the Dharma.
Increase wisdom and eloquence recitation.
The method of bathing in mantras is a major feature of tantric medicine, and the medicinal power combined with mana power cleanses people of sickness, bad luck, and even karma, so that merit increases. The Celestial Maiden of Eloquence said: All the evil star catastrophes of his person, contrary to the stars of the newborn, the suffering of epidemics, the battle array, nightmares and ghosts, Gu poison and disgust, and spells to raise corpses, if all evil is an obstacle, they will be ordered to be destroyed.
The specific cultivation method requires thirty-two flavored incense medicines, and then body protection, enchantment, spell water, etc., and the process is relatively complicated.
The second is the method of reciting prayers. First of all, Venerable Chenru sighed and prayed:
Wise and brave to argue and talented, people and heavens should be supported,
The world is full of fame, and it can make a wish with all sentient beings.
According to the high mountain top to win the residence, the grass is the room in the middle of the residence,
Constant knotted soft grass is used as clothing, and it is often warped on one foot everywhere.
All the heavens and the masses have come to gather, and they are all united in their hearts to praise and please,
I only wish wisdom to speak to the heavens, and give everything with wonderful words.
After the prayer was completed, the Celestial Maiden began to pronounce her root mantra.
At that time, the Celestial Maiden said that she had a mantra and said to the Brahman: "O good Master, you can seek wonderful eloquence and treasures, supernatural powers and wisdom for all sentient beings, and benefit everything and quickly attain Bodhi." If so, you should know that you will receive the French style. ”
The long mantra of the goddess of eloquence can seek wonderful eloquence for all sentient beings. Eloquence is the ability to be good at speaking the law and righteousness, and the ability to be good at debate. In ancient times, many eminent monks and great virtues defeated many provocations of foreign ways and upheld the Buddha's Dharma. Seeking treasures, wealth and material use, supernatural powers and wisdom, including the worldly and worldly wisdom, can be accomplished.
Then, the Celestial Maiden began to preach the ritual of how to fulfill her mantra. In Tantra, every mantra actually has a sadhana stage of attainment. The sadhana here refers not only to what to recite first and then what to recite later, but also to what precepts to take, how to arrange the mandala, and so on.
