Chapter 1113: The First Bodhisattva

Can cultivating the Dharma of the Great Auspicious Heavenly Maiden be reborn in the Elysian World? Yes, it has already been taught in the Sutra of the Transformation of the Divine Beings into the True Words:

When you see the merit of the heavens. Recite the vows. Its merits are born with both hands and the truth. Drink it. Obtained great magical powers and turned into glory. The hair is like a spiral snail, and the eyes are like green lotus. Eloquence is not hindered, the sound is elegant, and the listener is happy. It is proved that the Great Mani Sea is pure and auspicious, and the lotus view is samaya. Long live the life of the palace body by body. Soar to the West in front of Amitabha. I heard that the deep Dharma had to be conferred and remembered.

Merit day, that is, the great auspicious goddess, when the goddess is on the top, the walker prays. The Celestial Maiden produces milk nectar with both hands and the walker, and the walker undertakes to drink, and obtains the great divine power Dasiddhi, bright, beautiful appearance, clear eyes, and eloquence without hindrance...... Long live your life, go to Amitabha Buddha in Elysium, listen to the Dharma and receive the instruction.

When a practitioner practices the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden, if he sees the Celestial Maiden in person, he can pray for rebirth in the Elysian World. If you attain deeper samadhi, you will see that she is Avalokiteshvara. Normally, if you practice the Celestial Maiden Dharma and visualize that the place is Elysium, then when you die, you will be in Elysium.

Jingyun: The so-called Bodhisattva of Contemplation. Bodhisattva of great potential. Remove all obstacles bodhisattva. Jizo Bodhisattva. Puguang Bodhisattva. The Void Hides the Bodhisattva. Vajrapani Bodhisattva. Remove all fears and bodhisattvas. Hold all pure and auspicious bodhisattvas. Bodhisattva with all blessings. Hold the Sun and Moon III Bodhisattva. Manjushri Bodhisattva. In this way, wait for the Bodhisattva Mahasattva to be the head.

In the puja, there are 12 supreme bodhisattvas. The reason why they appear in the puja of the great auspicious goddess is because the qualities of the bodhisattvas correspond to this dharma, that is, they are consistent.

Guanyin Bodhisattva, great compassion, relief from suffering, removal of suffering and happiness.

Therefore, the Bodhisattva is considered to be the first in light and wisdom, and the heavens and the earth shake everywhere wherever he goes, protecting sentient beings from evil spirits.

The Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden also has the same merits, as mentioned in the scriptures: "All fears and afflictions are removed." All thieves are not terrible, nor are they harmful. :

Removing the Bodhisattva of Obstacles, subduing all obstacles and the five covers of meditation: greed, hatred, sleep, mischief, and doubt. The Dharma of the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden satisfies the six paramitas, which naturally includes meditation paramitas, so it corresponds to the bodhisattva nature of removing obstacles, and has this merit and victory.

The Bodhisattva of the Earth, the Bodhisattva of the Earth, removes the extremely heavy karma, gains the body and is used, and the merits between ordinary people and Buddhahood, the practice of the Jizo Dharma can be completed. As the scriptures say, "You can get rid of all sins." Get rid of all afflictions. Make everything unblemished. Gather together to gain all the valleys of wealth. ”

For this reason, the Jizo Bodhisattva appeared in this puja.

Puguang Bodhisattva, appearing in the "Buddha Explains the Hundred Lives of Grievances and Dharani Sutra", preaches to understand the grievances of Dharani, so that the enemies do not meet, and turn into auspiciousness. And in the character of the great auspicious goddess, it is auspicious to be able to stop all the persecution and litigation and fighting, and to solve all disputes.

If we look at it from the name of Puguang Bodhisattva, Puguang has the meaning of vastness, pervasiveness, and pervasive light, such as the great sun coming, and the light shining all over it, eliminating the foolishness and darkness of sentient beings, revealing their wisdom and virtues, and leading to the sea of suffering of delusional separation.

The happiness of the great auspicious celestial maiden, on the outside, is to remove the coarse afflictions, such as material scarcity, and on the inside, it is to remove the subtle karmic obstacles such as ignorance, so that the mind can feel at ease.

The Bodhisattva of the Void is the unity of wisdom and merit. For example, in his image, he holds a Mani orb in his left hand, which is full of wealth, and in his right hand, he holds a sharp sword, which shows deep wisdom and can break through all the clouds of trouble. There was a man in ancient India who practiced the Bodhisattva of the Void Treasure and whenever he needed treasure and food, he stretched out the container to the sky, and the need was naturally filled.

If you want to be blessed and wise, you can hide the Bodhisattva's holy name or mantra in the void all year round. And the great auspicious goddess is also the same. It's just that the difference in enlightenment is that it generally focuses on the merits of her merit, but in essence, if you practice deeply, you can also open up wisdom and eloquence.

Vajrapani Bodhisattva is said to be the collective embodiment of the power of the Buddhas of the Ten Directions. The Tibetan Sakya sect has the practice of the four-armed Vajrapani, which originates from the subjugation department. In other sects, there are also many methods about Vajrapani Bodhisattva, such as Baolou Pavilion Vajrapani, Blue Vajrapani, and Dapeng Vajrapani......

Vajrapani, also known as the Secret Master, is the abbot and the master of Esoteric Buddhism, subduing all demons. Vajrapani Bodhisattva appeared at the festival to fight the auspicious goddess, firstly, because he was the secret master, and he would inevitably protect the secret dharma of the goddess, and secondly, the goddess dharma could subdue human and non-human obstacles, and it was powerful enough, so it gathered accordingly.

Hold all pure and auspicious bodhisattvas. Bodhisattva with all blessings. Hold the Sun and Moon III Bodhisattva.

Hold all pure and auspicious, pure in terms of wisdom and virtue, auspiciousness in terms of merit, pure and pure, except for the separation of delusions and artificiality, and all troubles. auspicious, good fortune, good fortune, complete food.

Holding all the blessings, the name of the picture, the sun and the moon III, and the name of the time, all refer to the corresponding aspect of the auspicious heavenly nature.

The last supreme bodhisattva is Manjushri. Manjushri is the teacher of the seven Buddhas, and all Buddhas are born according to Manjushri Samadhi to live all beings, and their sex is unhindered and untainted. Manjushri is also the head of Prajnazang.

Manjushri is also known as the "Father of the Buddhas". When the Thousand Buddhas had a degree, they relied on the teachings of Manjushri from the initial refuge in the Three Jewels to initiating the special bodhichitta and learning the teachings of the Mahayana Dharma.

In short, among the 12 bodhisattvas who participated in the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden Puja with joy, there were bodhisattvas who represented the virtues of compassion, wisdom, strength, and merit. The deep nature of the Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden also corresponds to this.

"Then contemplate the Bodhisattva Mahasattva. Go to the head of the Lord and bow and sit down. When the auspicious goddess also went to the Buddhas' heads and bowed. Enclose. Immeasurable hundreds of thousands of turns, and the bodhisattvas who dwell in all the happy worlds retreat to one side. ”

The Great Auspicious Celestial Maiden appears as a dependent of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and is also called the auspicious Celestial Maiden as the incarnation of Guanyin in Dongmi. This relationship of dependent origin also gives rise to the stages of spiritual attainment of the Fa.

In the non-empty Suo Dharma system, there is the method of combining the auspicious celestial maidens with the most victorious Ming King incarnated by Guanyin Bodhisattva. In short, they all cultivate Guanyin first, and then cultivate the Heavenly Maiden, and they can get immeasurable blessings.

Jingyun: When the world sees the auspicious goddess. There are immeasurable hundreds of thousands of blessings solemn. All around it. All the Buddhas and protectors praised and sighed.

The great auspicious goddess has immeasurable merit and solemn body, which is the merit and retribution of her cultivation in her last life. What's even more incredible is that there are tens of millions of people around him!

As a celestial maiden, there are countless Nyorai surrounding her, which also reveals her noble status and her extremely secret identity - the Great Sun Nyorai.
