Chapter 1064: Dharma Protector Buddha-figure
The life of all sentient beings is actually very short, and all sentient beings are born with different troubles and pains, and it is difficult to extricate themselves from fame, fortune, and the love of men and women. The Buddha was born to show the tantric method, which not only satisfies the dreams of sentient beings according to the fate of the world, but also enables sentient beings to transcend the sea of life and death and terminate reincarnation. However, the tantric method is immeasurable, and it is nothing more than opening up the inherent consciousness of all beings, which is incomprehensible and unpredictable. Only the joy of the Holy Heaven is the most with all sentient beings.
According to legend, the Dharma protector of Buddhism, Da Zi Tian, was obsessed with spiritual practice, and when his wife Umo Tianhou saw that her husband was not at home all the year round, she used clay to create a handsome young man to accompany her. One day, when the queen of Umo was bathing, she ordered the boy to guard the door of the house and not let people break in, and it happened that when he returned home in the morning, he saw a young man blocking him from returning home at his door, and he killed the boy with a trident under the dispute.
When the queen of Wumo heard the news, she cried and said to the Great Freedom Heaven that the boy was her son, and she wanted the Great Freedom Heaven to resurrect the young man, but the powerful trident did not know where to throw the young man's head, so the Great Freedom Heaven had to ask the Great Brahma. The Great Brahma was able to create all things, and told the Great Buddha that the first creature he encountered in the process of searching for a skull with his head facing north could resurrect his son.
It just so happened that the idol of the god on which the emperor was riding was playing on the side of the road, and in the process of searching, the first creature he encountered was this elephant, so he cut off the head of the elephant and resurrected his son. Later, Dazi Zaitian was subdued by the Buddha and took refuge in the Three Jewels, and his son was also taught by the Eleven-faced Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, becoming the unique protector god in Buddhism.
Speaking of the protector god, many people have the impression that only the Veda Bodhisattva enshrined in the temple, the most famous protector god of Taoism is Wang Lingguan, and then the Guan Sheng Emperor is the common protector god of Buddhism and Taoism.
Some people who have practiced Buddhism for many years can name the auspicious goddess, the four heavenly kings. If you are a person who cultivates Esoteric Buddhism, you will subconsciously say Mahakala, Lion-faced Buddha Mother, and so on. Each of these Dharma protector deities has a vow and has the power to support the practitioner on the Bodhi path to remove obstacles and overcome obstacles.
Like Mahakala, Mahakala is a transliteration, and in Tibetan Esoteric it is called Mahakala, and there are images of different colors, different arms, etc., as well as mantra recitation. The Eastern Secret is called the Great Black Heaven, and there are many Buddha-figures who incarnate into the Great Black Heaven, and the recitation of Dharma images and mantras is very different from the Tibetan Secret Language. It is more interesting in the Dian Secret, this statue is quite similar to the prototype Shiva God of the Great Freedom Heaven, but the Dian Secret is called the Lord God of the Earth, and the unique mudra and mantra are also different from the Tibetan Secret and the Eastern Secret, which is unique.
These lineages of Mahakala have different emphases, from the external protection of their bodies to the internal protection of their hearts, and the blessings and achievements of dependent origins have their own merits. For the Dharma protectors, their vow and mission is to remove all obstacles on the path of Bodhi, but because of the depth and the variety of circumstances, the Great Sage Huanxitian stands out among these Dharma protectors.
In the Huayan Sutra, the fundamental classic of the Huayan Sect, the fifty-three ginseng of the good wealth boy is used to expose the profound bodhisattva behavior practiced by the Mahayana Bodhisattva, and finally the ten wishes of the Puxian Bodhisattva are used to guide the conversion to the world of bliss.
This woman has a peerless face that makes all men and women mad for her, men are greedy for her beauty, and women are jealous of her beauty. The status of the woman in ancient India is very low, she is a dusty woman, and she has a peerless appearance, so her reputation is not so good, and some people scold her for being a red face and a vixen.
The good wealth boy first set out to cultivate the Bodhisattva path, but he didn't know how to cultivate, so he was instructed to ask the woman who was going to ask the woman, people didn't know the truth, and when they saw the boy of good wealth coming to find the girl, they were very strange and thought that the boy was a bodhisattva with good merit, how could he be infatuated with a prostitute, but there was a fool and there was a wise person, and the wise person knew the secret appearance of the woman and the woman, so he showed the boy where to see it.
Seeing the good wealth boy who saw the Buddha and the woman, she asked very humbly and asked how to practice the Bodhisattva Path? The Buddha replied to the Good Wealth Boy that she is now practicing the Bodhisattva Path, and she appears with the desires of all sentient beings, and all beings in the six realms can see her, and in humanity, for people with deep desires, as long as these people can see her, talk to her, sit together, look at each other, hold hands, hug, be intimate and even glance at each other, these sentient beings can immediately be liberated, become bodhisattvas who do not retreat, and live in the bodhisattva line at the moment.
The 53 Dharmakaya Masters in the Huayan Sutra are only some of the ways in which the Bodhisattvas practice deeply, but these practices and manifestations are hard for many people to believe, and they only call it impossible, but remember that one should never speculate on the infinite wisdom and convenience of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas with the limited thinking of ordinary people.
The Bodhisattvas of the Buddha-figure of the Buddha-figure in the Esoteric Buddhism are closely related to the Buddha-figure of the Bodhisattva of the Holy Heaven in the Esoteric Teachings, and it is also a side testimony of the secret aspect of the Holy Heavens.
Before he became a great protector of the Dharma, the Bodhisattva was the beloved son of the Great Freedom Heaven and the Queen of Uzamo, a fierce and cunning demon god who specialized in hindering people's cultivation and pleasure, and under his command there was the immeasurable Vinayaka.
Among the heavens, in addition to the Great Freedom Heaven, and the Great Freedom Heaven with the same name of Naraya Heaven, the Great Brahma and other heavens are unable to restrain and subdue this Vinayaka King, among the saints of Buddhism, only the King of Jundali Ming and the eleven-faced Guanyin can restrain and subdue, Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva then incarnated his body, and also incarnated as the Vinayaka Woman, so that the King of Vinayaka fell in love, and ordered the King of Vinayaka to swear not to practice in the obstacles, but will support the practitioner with the first rare divine power of the Three Realms, so as to show a double body embracing the Dharma image of the Vinayaka Woman incarnated by Guanyin Bodhisattva。
At the moment when King Vinayaka embraced the incarnation of Avalokiteshvara, in some senses, just like the Vasumi Buddha in the Huayan Sutra, King Vinayaka is no longer the demon god of the past, but at the moment of embrace, he attained the bodhisattva land at the moment of blessing through the powerful flow of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, and he is a saint who is no different from Avalokiteshvara, and the king of Vinayaka at this time is the true great sage Joy Bodhisattva.
