preface
The pure land thought is not only a pure land Sect, but also a masterpiece of three classics: Infinite Life Sutra, View Infinite Life Sutra, Amitabha Sutra and Pure Land Theory. Pure land law is mentioned in many Mahayana classics, which shows the belief of pure land thought.
Among them, Maitreya's pure land thought is the earliest. In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Master Hui Yuan, the ancestor of Pure Land Sect, and his disciples Fayu, Master Xuanzang of Tang Dynasty, Master Jiong, and eight modern monks, including Xu Yun, Master Taixu and Bodhisattva Cihang, all vowed to live in the pure land of Maitreya. It is precisely because of the extensive admiration of the masters that Maitreya's pure land thought can be carried forward.
Two Five Times Pure Land Method: Pure Land Pocket Rate
The pure land of the five-multiplication method refers to the pure land of Maitreya Bodhisattva, which is located on the fourth day of desire. Divided into an inner court and an outer court. The outer court is still inhabited by heaven and man who think of five pleasures, while the inner court is where saints such as Bodhisattva live together. It is a clean and solemn pure land. Bodhisattva is well-educated and cultivated, so it is also called good enough.
Among many pure lands, only the pure land was widely photographed in the last days. Whether becoming a monk at home or not, all beings can ascend to the pure land as long as they wish. In the inner court, Maitreya Bodhisattva often speaks for the boundless masses. If you can go to the pure land, you can see Maitreya. In the future, you can follow the Buddha to the world, continue to see the Buddha and smell the Dharma, and transform the world into a pure land with good roots and freedom.
Maitreya's original wish
Maitreya Bodhisattva is also called "cishi" because it takes kindness and altruism as its starting point and vows to keep all buddhas in the world. According to "Maitreya Bodhisattva Asks the Original Wish", the Bodhisattva made a wish when practicing in the earthly branch: "When making Buddha, the people of our country will be free from all kinds of filth, ignorance and diligence. I will accept the highest revelation. 」
Maitreya Bodhisattva lives in pure land, shows great compassion and teaches Buddhism to all beings. According to the scriptures, Maitreya Bodhisattva is a monk who never breaks his troubles and practices meditation. The reason why he shows this style is mainly to let everyone understand that the practice of Bodhisattva should focus on giving, keeping precepts, enduring humiliation, diligence, compassion and wisdom in the real world. If you practice meditation, so that you can get rid of your troubles and not expand all beings, you will fall into Hinayana, unable to be merciful and full of happiness. From this, we can clearly understand Maitreya's Mahayana spirit of actively saving the world.
Buddha Sakyamuni wrote a memorial for Maitreya, predicting that he would be born on earth and become a Buddha under Longhua tree. He will tell it three times and try his best to show it to all beings. From the teachings and predictions of the Buddha, we know that people who practice Bodhisattva's Taoism accomplish self-interest through altruism, and then achieve Buddhism and Taoism.
Fourth, the extraordinary victory of Pure Land.
The pure land of Maitreya Bodhisattva has many unique advantages compared with our world of concubines:
1. has a long life span of 4,000 years, which is about 5.76 billion years on the earth.
He is four to ten years old and very tall.
3. Have the desire to win.
4. Have stable concentration.
Characteristics of Wu Dou's Pure Land
1. Compassion and happiness: Maitreya always cares for all beings in her mother-in-law's world, so she is willing to build a solemn and beautiful pure land in an evil and tolerable world, plus all beings who want to be in the world, so that she can live without her mother-in-law. Maitreya and Sakyamuni practiced at the same time, and the Buddha had already become a Buddha. Maitreya still practices Bodhisattva in the inner court for different motives. Maitreya's motto is "If you don't practice meditation, you will be troubled constantly". In fact, it is to benefit others, practice bodhisattva, stay confused and nourish life. In his world, he will always be happy, and he will always follow the sympathy of the crowd.
2. Easy to popularize: Pure land is close to women's world, and it is also in the realm of desire, so it is easier to practice. As long as you convert to the Three Treasures, keep the precepts clean, and make a wish to live, you can live in the pure land, instead of being distracted when you are chanting Buddha. Moreover, going to the pure land in the past is not necessarily bodhicitta and deviant, but only to increase the kindness of people born, and they can also live as they please. Maitreya Bodhisattva often responds to the root of all sentient beings, saying that man, nature, Erdao and Bodhisattva have different ways to popularize all sentient beings and benefit everyone.
3. See Buddhism: Those who get Maitreya's pure land can meet Maitreya Bodhisattva, listen to his words and never look back. Seeing Buddhism is faster than the pure land of bliss, and the pure land of Maitreya is like a grand and huge lecture hall. In addition to the quotations of Maitreya Buddha at six o'clock day and night, there are various voices such as heavenly daughters, musical instruments, the sound of trees and underwater sounds, which have been preaching the wonderful voice of Buddhism.
4. Wisdom turns to sorrow: Maitreya's extraordinary success in winning the pure land was formed by his kindness to the public. He doesn't always live in silence, and he doesn't go to the pure wisdom and solemn world. Instead, he built a pure land in the world of desire, and all beings are broad because all beings in the world of desire are too deep to be detached. Maitreya Bodhisattva only returns all sentient beings in his mother's world with his infinite wisdom, so that everyone can be educated.
Lu Dou learned Taoism in Pure Land.
There are many ways to go to the pure land, and it is easier to learn the pure land method. In addition to the three most basic resources, there are enough conditions to hold them:
1. Six things:

(2) Maintain dignity, and strictly observe the precepts and rules of self-occupation.
(3) Sweep the tower and mop the floor, arrange the Dojo and tidy up the stupa.
(4) Koge provides clothes, food, bedding, potions and other supplies to the poor.

(3) Monks are bound by foot precepts.
(4) Be diligent in body and mind, and never bother yourself.

(2) recite the precepts of yoga bodhisattva for half a month.
(3) Study the true meaning of yoga every day.
(4) Name Maitreya Tathagata.
(5) the desire to rise to the pure land.
Seven. conclusion
The purpose of living in pure land is not to enjoy living in heaven, but to get close to Maitreya. When Maitreya was born, he would attend the grand meeting of Longhua Third Congress and see the teachings of Buddha, except for troubles and life and death.
In fact, Maitreya's thoughts mainly focus on the realization of the pure land on earth, but people are often eager to survive and use the pure land, ignoring Maitreya's pure land on earth. Why not live in this world, follow the example of Buddha and Bodhisattva, and make a vow to turn a woman's world into a pure land on earth?
The second chapter Mahayana pure land without * * * method-bliss pure land glass.
Yi Ji le Jing tu
First, the original wish of Amitabha
Amitabha, which means infinite life and infinite light, captures all merits and demerits and helps all sentient beings with the wisdom, willingness and light of Buddha.
Since ancient times, Amitabha's pure land thought has been deeply rooted in people's hearts. From the sentence "Every family is Amitabha and every family is Guanyin Bodhisattva", we can see the popularity of folk belief in Amitabha. Goodwin said, "All the classic compliments are in Tommy." The Buddhist Sutra of Endless Life and Samadha Sutra of a Boat say: "When you see the achievements of Amitabha, you will see the Buddhas. It can be seen that Amitabha Buddha shows the true fruit and virtue of all Buddhas.
In all kinds of Mahayana Sutra, although the Pure Land of Ten Buddhas is widely praised as the vast Yi Dao, it is especially praised by Yang as the Pure Land of Amitabha, and he thinks that among all kinds of dharma, the most outstanding one is to recite the holy name of Amitabha and die in the Pure Land of Blissfulness. The characteristic of Amitabha is that he made forty-eight wishes when practicing in the earthly branch, showing the bliss world with boundless sadness. He also vowed that anyone who believes in the power of Amitabha and is willing to live in bliss, regardless of one day, two days or even seven days or ten thoughts, can be blessed by Amitabha. Even if you take your career as your life and practice in the pure land of bliss, no matter how long it takes, you can get rid of life and death and achieve supreme bodhi, so the pure land of Amitabha is the best. Amitabha's forty-eight wishes:
1. The country has no evil wishes: I hope that China will not suffer from three evil ways.

Second, the unique advantages of the pure land of bliss
Amitabha's pure land of bliss, because of its many unique advantages, has become a place that all beings yearn for:
1. Infinite time and space: Elysium, with infinite life and infinite space, is filled with wisdom like light. As far as time is concerned, the climate is always cool and comfortable, without cold and heat, everyone can fly freely, without the problems of narrow space, crowding and aggression, and everyone can live happily and comfortably in a world with unlimited time and space.
2. Happy life: People in Elysium live a happy life and will not feel uncomfortable because of daily food and clothing problems. They feed on Zen, that is, as long as they have six senses of eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind, they can make their bodies full by chanting Buddha, dharma, Buddha and monk without eating. The clothes you wear are your feelings. You live in the beautiful Huayu Palace, paved with gold and made of seven treasures. Really comfortable!
3. Social harmony and happiness: there will never be material shortage in Elysium, and no one will argue with me in interpersonal relationship. All good people will meet in one place, and there will be no class division and no relationship between men and women. Everyone is equal, respects and cares for each other. In particular, everyone is a lotus. Not only do they have no physical pain of old age, illness and death, but they also have no greed, anger and delusion in their hearts. Therefore, everyone is physically and mentally clean, showing a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere everywhere.
4. Integration: The clean people in the Amitabha Sutra, with their clothes in rags, support ten Buddhist countries every morning, turning the vast western heaven into a scene of "living next to heaven". People are more indifferent. They hold the concept of equality between you and me, love each other, treat all sentient beings with compassion, no treatment and no greed, and integrate the whole paradise into an ideal world for human beings.
Third, pure land and three-capital grain.
People who practice pure land Buddhism must have faith, will and action in order to live in the pure land of western bliss.
1. Faith: Hua Yan Jing says: "Faith is the mother of virtue and morality, and it nurtures all good roots. We must believe in Amitabha's righteousness and merits, Amitabha's compassionate will, and Buddha's extraordinary merits, so that we can naturally go to bliss and not be confused. Because there is strength with confidence, wisdom with confidence, and everything can be achieved with firm belief.
2. Wish: I wish to come from faith. After my confidence is firm, I need bodhicitta, and I call myself chanting Buddha with the wish of "seeking Buddha's path and all beings", which corresponds to Amitabha's forty-eight wishes. In addition, I also wish to return to the west, and all the blessings, wisdom and merits I have cultivated will return to the pure land where all beings can die.
3. OK: I believe I am willing to make three kinds of food, such as a tripod, which is three feet long and indispensable. In practice, we should strive to live and die in another country, have no doubt about Amitabha's forty-eighth wish, call the Buddha's name wholeheartedly, and get the benefits of chanting Buddha with the help of Buddha's power.
Amitabha's name, Wan Dehong, contains infinite merits. Not only is it convenient to recite the name of Amitabha in daily life, but it can also be called meditation and practice from time to time, so you can always take care of your body and mind. Therefore, we should always recite the holy name of "There is no Amitabha in the South".
Er azure stone jingtu
First, pharmacists can eliminate disasters and prolong life.
Pharmacist Buddha, also known as pharmacist Liuliguang Tathagata, Great Doctor King Buddha and Twelve Wishes King, is the leader of the pure glass world in the East.
The pharmacist Buddha is surrounded by two bodhisattvas, sunshine and moonlight. They are bodhisattvas who make up for life, and they are also the first among countless people in the pure land of glass. Sometimes the pharmacist Buddha is flanked by Guanyin and Shi Zhi Bodhisattva, or eight Bodhisattvas such as Manjusri Bodhisattva, Guanyin, Shi Zhi, Baotanhua, Endless Meaning, Medicine Merchant and Maitreya.
In the past, the twelve wishes of the pharmacist Buddha were to relieve the suffering of all beings, so that they could take root, introduce liberation and achieve Buddhism and Taoism. These twelve wishes are:
1. Everyone is a Buddha.
Realize your career.
3. Adequate resources and students
Settle down in Mahayana Buddhism
Step 5 abstain from purity
6. Six feet
7. Disease-free persecution
8. Have a photo of your husband
9. Good view
10. It was not recorded by Wang Fa.
1 1.
12. There is no shortage of clothes, and mosquitoes are not bothered by cold and heat.
In addition, according to the "Merits and Virtues of Pharmacist Liu Rulai", if someone is seriously ill and dying, family members can pay homage day and night at the last moment of the pharmacist's life, read the "Merits and Virtues of the Pharmacist's Tathagata" 49 times, burn 49 lamps and create five-color banners for 49 days, so that this person can continue his life. The vows of the pharmacist Buddha are incredible, and their wishes are aimed at the defects of the real world, which is an ideal world actively created, so it is welcomed by all beings in the world.
Second, the situation of the pure land of coloured glaze.
1. Rich people's livelihood: The glass pure land where pharmacists come is a place where people's livelihood is very rich without worrying about the economy. There are treasures of gold and silver everywhere and magnificent buildings everywhere. People's food, clothing, housing and transportation are extremely convenient to obtain.
All sentient beings in the pure land of pharmacist's glass, because they are close to the pharmacist Tathagata, know how to cultivate happiness, so the karma they feel is extremely smooth. It can be seen that the pure land of glass is indeed an ideal world with rich people's livelihood and rich materials.
2. Social purification: Pure land of pharmacists is a place to purify all beings and society. There is no distinction between men and women, and there is no persecution by wicked people. It's a gathering place for all good people. Therefore, there are no family disputes, no worries of men and women, and no evil interests such as hell, animals and hungry ghosts. Everywhere is a scene of peace and tranquility.
3. Political clarity: There is no penalty, no prison and no corrupt officials in the pure land of pharmacists. The problems such as robbery, violence, drug trafficking, juvenile delinquency and bribery seen in the real society cannot appear in the pure land of pharmacists, so it is a place with political clarity and good public security.
4. Physical and mental well-being: Everyone in the pharmacist glass world is healthy and happy, and there is no need to worry about medical care, especially when a pharmacist comes. He is the supreme king of medicine. Not only is there no physical illness, but there is also no psychological greed. Everyone is healthy and trying to get rid of the holy road.
The Third Pure Land of Buddhism on Earth-Ideal Pure Land, China Tibet and Buddha Light Pure Land.
Characteristics of Pure Land in China
The pure land of China and Tibet in the Huayan Sutra of Dafang Guangfo is based on the Buddha of Pilu Channa, a pure dharma body, which is a beauty and has endless maritime merits. In the pure land of China and Tibet, all the Buddhas of the three generations are together, and all the realms are endless and deep. To understand this pure land, an instant is eternity, and the dust contains a vast and boundless world. Therefore, in the pure land of Tibet in China, sumeru collects mustard seeds, and mustard seeds collect sumeru. Small is big, out of nothing, out of nothing, short is long, and it is still in motion. In addition, the pure land of China and Tibet can be illustrated by four characteristics:
1. Endless: a flower and a world, a leaf and a Buddha, the pure land is infinite. In the dust, you can see an infinite world of three thousand years. The so-called "one dust and one law is like a hundred thousand." In the pure land of China and Tibet, there is an infinite world, an infinite light and an infinite Buddha. The so-called "infinite treasure in light, infinite Buddha in treasure".
2. Harmony of things: there is no obstacle to the harmony between things and reasons, and the differences of various things do not conflict with the ontology of the universe. As far as practicing dharma is concerned, everything and phenomena in the universe are different and different. From the perspective of law, there is only one thing as ontology, and that is that there is only one heart in the whole universe. From the point of view that directors do not hinder the legal profession, phenomenon and noumenon are integrated. As far as the legal world is concerned, everything has its own body and uses. Although they have their own origins and maintain their own nature, some help each other from multiple edges, and some help each other from one edge to another. They use each other and negotiate with each other, so everything is clear, so it is also called endless dharma circles.
3. Equality in sex and space: In the pure land of China and Tibet, saints and ordinary people, Buddha, self and mind are all equal, and everything is equal. Light shines with light, and light and light are distinct. Although it is a speck, it contains the whole world. Although it is a microorganism, it can show all beings. Living in the pure land of China and Tibet, there is no dispute between people and me, and there is no possibility of dispute, because the hearts of all beings can tolerate everything.
4. Helping others: In the pure land of China and Tibet, everyone has a strong desire to benefit others. From Pu Xian's Ten Wishes, we can know that Bodhisattva's wishes will not stop in the future. His ten wishes are not only for sages, but also for himself and all sentient beings. The great spirit of self-help in the pure land of China and Tibet can be seen from the respect, sadness, wish and even words and deeds of the Bodhisattva.
Two-hearted pure land
First, the understanding of the pure land of idealism
"Buddha is far from Lingshan, and Lingshan is in your heart; Everyone has a Ling Mountain Tower, learn from Ling Mountain Tower. Unfortunately, our heart is a Lingshan full of treasures, which contains incomparably rich resources. All beings are stupid and don't know how to exploit their own treasures. But to give up everything and look for treasure outside. In our daily life, due to our ignorance, our hearts sometimes wander in heaven and sometimes fall into hell, which is very painful. There are also many people in the world who come and go freely physically, but their hearts are bound by the shackles of selfish desires, losing their freedom and becoming a free and uncomfortable life.
So, how can I make my heart happy and comfortable? How can we make this world a pure land? We Buddhists should use our faith to create the pure land of idealism in our hearts. Because in the pure land of idealism, there is a Buddha in everyone's heart, and his sex is pure and pure. Although he is in hell, he is as happy as in heaven. In the pure land of idealism, you can sit comfortably in the heat and feel comfortable in the suffering. Therefore, if you want to live in heaven and turn the world into a pure land, you must practice the pure land of idealism.
Second, how to establish the pure land of idealism
Life in the world has ups and downs, bitterness, existence, adversity, poverty and gains and losses. How to adjust your mood in the ups and downs of life and turn it into a pure land of idealism? We should do the following four things in life:
1. Let it be: You can let it be in life, with or without it; More or less; Whether it is glory or humiliation, we don't care much about the gains and losses of poverty. We can accept anything and live anywhere. As long as we can be happy with it, where is pure land?
2. Live with fate: in the pure land of idealism, sooner or later; Or get along with good people or meet bad people; Or in a cold or even hot environment, in the good or bad career, we can all live with fate.
3. Peace of mind: In the pure land of idealism, just like Guanyin Bodhisattva's point of view: people are comfortable, no matter who they get along with; Be calm about things, be calm about everything; The view is comfortable, and the realms are comfortable; If you are comfortable with reason, you can be comfortable with all truths; If you are comfortable, you can be comfortable at any time and live in the freedom of the pure land of idealism.
4. Work happily: Working in the pure land of idealism, everyone works with joy and happiness, and naturally feels safe and happy, and will not worry about it.
God Buddha landscape light map
First, the pure land of Buddha's light in human Buddhism
Buddhism is a people-oriented Buddhism. The Buddha has always emphasized in various Confucian classics: "I am one of many." "Vimalakīrti Jing" says that Buddhism seeks all beings. Without sentient beings, there is no Buddha, and without the masses, there is no way to find. Master Liu Zu said: "Buddhism is in the world and inseparable from the world; Leaving Kuboth is like finding the horns of a rabbit. Therefore, if we want to become a Buddha, we must hone our practice in human nature, because only people can become a Buddha, and Buddhism and Taoism cannot be achieved in other ways.
From Hokkekyo and agama, we can see metaphors praising the rarity of the human body and the preciousness of the human world. Since the human world is so important, why should we pin our hopes on the future pure land instead of transforming the present world into a peaceful and happy pure land among people? Why should we pursue the unknowable future instead of purifying the body and mind of the real land?
The pure land of Buddhism in the world is the pure land when it came into being. The pure land of Buddhism in the world holds that birth is more important than birth, life is more important than life and death, altruism is more important than self-interest, and charity is more important than self-cultivation. The pure land of Buddha light not only inherits the tradition, but also conforms to the trend of the times. It is also a bright future and a Buddhist country on earth, because people who live in Buddha's Light and Pure Land know how to grasp karma and are convinced that the world they live in is Buddha's Light and Pure Land!
Second, the concept of Buddha's light and pure land.
1. Holding the five-multiplication * * * method is the pure land thought of Buddha's light: in the five-multiplication of Buddhism, the dharma adopted by man and nature is more important than entering the WTO, and the dharma realized by man is more important than being born. The pure land of Buddha's light has the spirit of multiplying heaven and man, and the concept of being born by hearing the sound. The Pure Land of Buddha Light is aimed at Bodhisattva, which is self-interested, altruistic, self-conscious and self-conscious. Therefore, the harmony of five-ride Buddhism is also the concept of Pure Land of Buddha Light.
2. Keeping the Five Commandments and Ten Kindnesses is the concept of Buddha's Light Pure Land: If a group, a society and a country can abide by the Five Commandments, this country must be everyone's ideal pure land. Because the five commandments do not kill, do not infringe on others, and respect others' lives, life can be free and long-lived; If you don't steal or infringe on other people's property, your wealth will naturally increase; If you don't infringe on the health and honor of others, your family will be harmonious and happy. If you don't lie and infringe on the reputation and credit of others, there will naturally be no disputes in society; If you don't drink, you won't hurt your body and wisdom, and your body and mind will be healthy. Ten good deeds are the expansion of the Five Commandments. As long as everyone accepts the five commandments and ten good deeds together, the world will naturally be peaceful and happy.
3. The idea that four boundless minds are the pure land of Buddha: four boundless minds are kindness, sadness, joy and abandonment. Buddhism wants us to be compassionate, because compassion can be respected by everyone, and compassion can subdue people's hearts and convince them; Buddhism is full of joyful character and spirit, spreading joyful seeds everywhere in the pure land of Buddha's light, so everyone lives a happy life in Buddhism. In addition, the pure land of Buddha light emphasizes sacrifice and dedication, so the altruistic character and the spirit of compassion and joy are the main contents of the pure land of Buddha light.
4. Six degrees and four beats is the concept of pure land of Buddha's light: there are many kinds of giving, such as giving with words, giving with looks, giving with inner joy and so on. In a country ruled by law, obeying the law means keeping the precepts; To tolerate each other and keep the society in order is to bear the burden of humiliation; Conscientious and responsible for work, perseverance and Excellence are the manifestations of diligence; It is a meditation effort to take everything easy and not care about it; Being kind to others and knowing how to express wisdom in ways are the six degrees of life. In addition, praise, encouragement, happy giving, help, convenience and consideration for others are the basic ideas of the Puritans in the Pure Land of Buddha and Light.
5. I believe that karma is the pure land of Buddha's light: I should be grateful for karma at any time and thank the public for making me, because only by knowing how to be grateful can I enjoy a rich life. Before cause and effect, everyone is equal, and no one can escape cause and effect, especially human Buddhism. We should establish the concept that everyone has cause and effect, so that society does not need the police to maintain public order, because cause and effect are the norms of its own laws.
6. The concept of pure Zen and middle way is the pure land of Buddha's light: pure Zen and middle way are the main contents of the pure land of Buddha's light. When it comes to Zen, the ancestors of past dynasties did not seek to become Buddhas, but only sought enlightenment. After enlightenment on earth, the present life can be freed, the body and mind can be settled, the body and mind can be at ease, and the mind can be clearly observed, so Zen is the most human.
The same is true of pure land. Pure land pedestrians want to live in pure land and also want to read Buddha in this world. If they don't have enough time to recite Buddha, they can't live. Therefore, based on the real world, there is no shortcut to honestly recite Buddhism and practice. Especially for modern families and hectic social life, pure land is a good way to stabilize our body and mind. If you can practice meditation and double cultivation, it will be more in line with the idea of human Buddhism.
The wisdom of "oneness of emptiness" in the doctrine of the mean can be directly related to the reality of the world. With the universal wisdom of the golden mean, we can be happy in this life.
Therefore, the concept of Buddha's Light Pure Land is:
1. Holding the five-fold * * * method is human Buddhism.
2. Keeping five precepts and ten good deeds is human Buddhism.
3. There are four boundless minds, which are human Buddhism.
4. Six degrees and four photos are human Buddhism.
5. The belief in karma is human Buddhism.
6. The pure middle way of Zen Buddhism is human Buddhism.
If everyone can learn according to this, the world is pure land, and pure land is in the world. This is the pure land of Buddhism on earth.
