Understanding of Buddhism before Buddha Yi Ming
  The following "simple to define the next Buddha," Professor Lin Shimin was _select_ed from the "spirit and characteristics of Buddhism"
  Buddha next to the definition of simple: I would like to brief you here the "Buddha", is immeasurable Buddhas through justice, is broad. I would try to "Buddha" is defined as follows:
  "Buddha" is a rational, emotional and ability to achieve the most satisfactory situation are also personality. Let me repeat that: "Buddha" is the intellectual, emotional and ability to achieve the most satisfactory situation are also the personality, in other words: the Buddha is the great wisdom, great compassion (or that the all-wise, the whole sad) and mighty people. Note here the difference between Buddhism and other religions point: the Buddha is not a panacea, the Buddha does not give us relief, he can only teach us that we still have to get their own relief efforts only. Buddha does not make us to heaven, or sentenced us into hell. For "Buddha" a definition, really is not an easy task.
  Simply put, the Buddha is the "enlightened", "a consciousness of the people."
  Perhaps more specifically, should be said that Buddhism is a fundamental truth of life of the universe have a thorough awareness of the people.
  There is also a concise definition, generally accepted for most people, that is: the Buddha is a conscious feeling he felt a complete line of people. In other words, the Buddha is a that they have awakened, and further to help other people to consciousness, and this self (sense), and feel he (the line) the work situation has also reached the most complete man.

Into China
  The following paragraph taken from Zhao edited by old lay the "Brief History of Buddhism"
  Yongping years of Eastern Han Dynasty in 67 AD, Buddhism was introduced into China by the government formally
  Emperor Ming Yongping years (67 years) Emperor Ming of Jin Renfei line Night's Dream Temple Court, tomorrow morning to ask the ministers. Tai Shi Yi Fu replied: Western Daishonin, the Buddha of its fine-sounding name; His Majesty the dream is probably him. God sent Zhonglang Jiang Cai Yin to eighteen other people to the Western Regions, visit Qiufo Dao. Cai Yin Zhu Falan case is equal to the Western Regions, taken Matanga two, and may be Buddhist scriptures, were also laden with Luoyang Baima. Royal Abode specially _set_ up to where they live, called the White Horse Temple. So Matanga and Zhu Falan translated in the temple, "四十二章经." This is almost the beginning of the Han Buddhism popular theory that mass, but also for history textbooks used in China.
  After the introduction of Buddhism in China, to the leaves after the end of Han times of emperor Huan Ling (147-189), the record gradually informative, historical data is also gradually enriched. The time Western Buddhist scholars have come to China, such as An Shigao, On Yuen came from the rest, Lou Jia Chen, Yao from the Rouzhi to support, Zhu Tianzhu come from the Buddha Moon, Kang Meng Long from Healthy to. This burgeoning in Translation, ceremonies also gradually Hing.
  First, the beginning of the Han Chinese monks: Han Chinese by the Buddhist monk and monasticism, such as like Ning "Monk History," volume "East Summer monk" theme, there are "Hou Han Emperor Ming Liu Jun, etc. in Yangcheng listening monk, monks is the beginning; Luoyang women Apan other monks, Nepal is the beginning "and other words. Liu Jun, and so the family by the "Law of the Han within the mass." "Inbound" pseudo-book, lack of confidence. However, "Monks. Buddha Figure Cheng Biography", the "Hamming sense to dream of the early transfer of its road, only to listen to Xiyu Ren Feng Du Yi have established the Temple of God, the Han Chinese are not a monk" and other words, it seems that the time Han has been a monk, and then have the ban. Salmonella found in the Han Chinese monks and nuns _set_ membership is strictly Buddha stressed the beginning, such as "mind _set_ of the Tripitaka. An Hyun Biography" called "Salmonella Yan Buddhism tune," said he, "a monk monasticism"; "the mind _set_ of Tripitaka "Also reproduced" Ten Hui built and novices ", under the title" Ah Yan Li only (ie, GUEST Lebanon) made, floating tone. " However, "little Jigu of Buddhism," said the Buddha stressed after eight, ninety Zhushi line, is the first to Salmonella of the Han territories; "ancient treasures in mind," also known as the Buddha, clear notes of believers. This is probably because from the Han Dynasty, while Buddhism has been popular, but Fung is not pure, cut off the monks monks should attack only difference, is not intrinsic Lvyi; to Wei Jiaping years (249 years), in Salmonella Tan Ke Jia Tianzhu Law (Law Time) to Luoyang, the establishment of karma law, a line of ordained, China and Turkey have a formal Salmonella, and registered the first acts of the altar Zhushi ordained, so to him as the beginning of Salmonella Turkey.

Baizhang Huaihai preach Zen disciples of Huang Bo Xi Yun Ling Yu Zen monk and Yangshan, are still the founder of the Buddhist monks! Since the Sixth Patriarch of Tai bit longer after, that is not the seventh ancestor, because the Zen Dharma really want to pass the mantle but not the heart of India, the Mind continues to this day, have not been cut off generations of monks who the founder, has continuation of the Sixth Patriarch of Dayton are teaching Dafa!
  Hui Neng the Sixth Patriarch of Zen Buddhism to flourish is who advocate Mind of the net, the Buddha of this has, Zhizhirenxin, and see the Buddha. After Hui Neng, Zen Buddhism spread widely in the late Tang and Five Dynasties and reached the peak. Zen Buddhism to the Chinese top, on the development of ancient Chinese culture has a significant impact.

And characteristics of the spirit of Buddhism
  This paragraph excerpt from Professor Lin Shimin of the "spirit and characteristics of Buddhism," a book of Buddhist characteristics
  If we take the Buddhist and other religions existing in the world compared, it is clear that they can be found between Buddhism and has many different, easy to explain, I see it summarized at ten shows at least that Buddhism has the following ten characteristics.
  First, the Buddha is a human and not God
  Look over the various religions around the world, in addition to Buddhism, there is no leader of a religion not based on Superman's 'God' in the grid itself. This God can do anything they want, Midas touch; his good and bad fortune to dominate mankind, it controlled the fate of all things honor. Only human prostrate in front of him, praise and eulogize, to all success and glory to Almighty God and faith to his heaven, against his only fall into hell, no room for a defense appeal.
  The founder of Buddhism - Buddha, the first thing he said to the world: 'the sky world, overweening. 'Here to invite readers to note that:' conceited 'in the' I 'word, not just referring to the Buddha itself, but to everyone of all human beings. The correct interpretation of this statement should be: who is the indomitable spirit in the universe, everyone is his own man, determine their own destiny, without having to take orders from any person or than the people of God.
  Sakyamuni his consciousness, achievement and attainment, entirely due to people's own efforts and wisdom. Sakyamuni that a person's good and bad fortune, success or failure of honor, decided on their own behavior and efforts of good and evil or not. No one can promote me to heaven, and no one can put me into hell. Acura can not leave suffering and attain praise and music, only the down to earth to spiritual cultivation, to make their own personal purification, sublimation, enjoy the peace of mind to make their own happiness.
  Not as wildly Sakyamuni magic Midas touch. He advocated "to reap, what to grow first." He can not make a wax apple trees to grow apples, apple harvest you if you want to sow the first seeds of apples. Buddha simply tells you how to culture, to Japan to a fruitful harvest, but the cultivation of work or to your own hands.
  Mr. Liang Qichao in the "fun learning" a text, have been in such a comparison is not it? He said the taste of comfort through the winter sun, but 'the sun is good, they want to go and party of the sun, others have for you the sun do not come. '
  Buddha saying forty-nine years, after about three hundred (time), is nothing more than for us to point out that a 'Buddha of the Road' - their own wisdom to create the most thorough and complete personality. But this road is to their own willpower, wisdom, and perseverance to finish it. So Buddha said: 'be your own work to do, because I only teach you which path to take. '
  Buddha no shortcuts, practice is the drip Kung Fu, 'without some cold Che bone, nothing fragrant plum? '
  Second, the Buddha is true equals
  I said that the Buddha is true equals, not the letter I nonsense, let the social context of India at that time to observe: Everyone knows that the era of the Indian Buddha, Brahmin society into the nobility, civilians and slaves, four classes, The Buddha saw you for the Prince of unreasonable social class, decided to erecting the banner of equality, advocate the abolition of class antagonism, stands for equality of all beings.
  Please sirs Think it over, all the revolutions in history are the class requirements of low mean 'increase' and high dignitaries of the class of equality, is absolutely not the same as the Buddha, he was willing to 'reduce' his Prince identity and civilians, slaves equal. Because of his this selfless style of doing for nothing, so I say he is the true equals.
  Buddhism has also advocated 'missed Daiji' and 'great grief', again pushing the meaning of equality situation further.
  I want to 'miss Daiji' and 'great grief' means, here to make a simple statement:
  (A) missed the Daci: Buddhism advocates a relationship not only with their own people to love, such as their parents, relatives, friends, etc.; the same time, not with their relatives and friends who have loving relationships, such as interaction with the I never or strangers, to care for the same care. 'Missed Daiji' with the words of Confucius is: '老吾老以及人之老; 幼吾幼以及人之幼. 'That is, "Li Yun Datong chapter," said' not only to pro-his parents, son of his son. 'Means.
  (B) of the great grief: a person with great compassion that has been hungry hungry, Rennijini the spirit of the universe, all beings, I am one of Adult, solidarity, blood connected.
  Confucius said: 'A bosom friend, everyone your neighbor. 'Said:' All men are brothers. 'Is can be expressed' great grief 'mind. The Earth Store Bodhisattva 'We're on the water? 'The COMPASSION deep heart, it is with great grief in the extreme.
  Finally, I wish to note, that is, the best performance of the Buddhist 'true equality' spirit who is the Buddhist concept of equality is not just limited to the soul of the people, the Buddhist opposition to "all animals other than humans are being created to give people enjoy ourselves palate, urge sympathy "argument. When all the animals died moaning wail, really terrible, grief can not bear to hear, to be generous with words of Mencius: 'heard and could not bear to eat its meat. '
  Buddhist further affirm that these are our self-proclaimed intelligent people are fishing indiscriminate killing of animals, all with the Buddha - a potential to Japan to become a Buddha, even between man and other animals, in body, the wisdom of different, but the rights of survival, in the Buddha on it are equal. Like a vicious or ignorant, he also has a 'human', we should 'humane' to treat him with the 'humane' to educate him, influence him. The ancients said: 'Heaven has the virtue. 'Said:' all things with me and life. 'Is a kind of equality, as the thoughts of all things as one. Just not right so thoroughly Buddhist Bale.
  Third, the Buddha was not born with knowledge
  Buddha is a flat Fanfan, he named Gautama, known as Siddhartha, the sixth century BC, was born in North India, near Nepal's southern border that is today, about two hundred kilometers at more than Cadman London bright place.
  Twenty-nine years old he gave up the throne is about to inherit, a monk School Road, seeking relief from life's troubled way. Six years later, that is, thirty five years old, the Buddha in Nepal with Zen riverside card got enlightenment under the bodhi tree, the correct and thorough awareness of the fundamental truth of the universe and life. I briefly after the Buddha's practice, the main purpose is to say that Buddha, like us are ordinary people, he can take practice and enlightenment, all the millions of human beings can also be rushed to copy, according to his down so as to practice the teachings and card results.
  Buddha - he is only human, anticipating one of the many, and we are slowest learners. Buddha with our differences, not in personality, differences in status, but in a 'feel' the word on different timetables. Han Yu said that: 'Wen Road has priority. '
  Fourth, Buddhism does not recognize the unruly people who can not educate
  According to other religions claim that their leader or the Almighty, in all sorts of threats and inducements, after, or well-meaning, earnest teachings apart, If you still do not know Fanran consciousness, surrendered to God under the banner of confession, admitted that he is a lost sinner, Poor lamb, then once the arrival of the Last Judgement, all hell, and never able to bounce back.
  The ancients said: 'prodigal son to stay. 'Life world of parents, always open the door, looking forward to their prodigal sons, even though their children is a crime reached its full of bandits. Has never been a parent, hope, or bear their children in the dark forever, suffering hardship hell.
  Buddhism recognizes that human nature is good, as long as the ledge, site can become a Buddha. Buddha also think the real 'prisoners' is not a sin, but ignorance of all evil is ignorance (Buddhism called 'ignorance') arising out of Health. So earnestly, around the clock to enlighten and inspire all beings, it becomes the responsibility of the Buddha. Buddha caring beings, 'the mother recalls son as', not only do not bear the pain of hell beings seriously, and widely distributed' hell is not empty, vow Buddha; beings to do the degree, square Bodhi. 'Vows. (Bodhi is 'consciousness' or 'right way' means, or the Buddha attained bodhi is intended.) This is how compassion! How COMPASSION! This is true love! This is the real pity pity it!
  Fifth, the Buddha is not unique, everyone can become a Buddha.
  The third point in the previous years, has mentioned the Buddha and sentient beings, but that time has just awakened. Han Yu said: 'There has news channel. 'Is can be used as a help.
  This is the fundamental teaching of Buddhism with his different places, other religions can only recognize them 'unique' in God, and try to scorn, deny God, he taught, saying he taught, the God of 'false gods'.
  At the same time in their teachings, human beings in any case to work hard to keep pace with God can never be the same in an equal position (always a master-servant relationship). Because God is the Creator, and man is only God had made 'objects' of it.
  Sixth, Buddhism does not recognize the Creator of All Things
  According to some religious argument, everything in the universe is created by the Almighty, their evidence is the Old Testament's 'Genesis'.
  In fact, people who thought a little bit, we can immediately knowing 'God' is a product of human thought, human values and image by his own god. The man created 'God', one of the aims is to explain the 'origin of the universe and life', the Buddhist call it done 'first cause'. But 'God' itself come from? Christians not only refused to investigate the outside, and very sure to say: 'God is omnipotent, he is naturally occurring. '
  Dear friends! If God can 'own existence', in other words he does not have to be created by others to be their own existence, then 'God created the universe and life', the concept of what is the point? (Similarly, the universe and life as you can naturally exist.)
  Here we have a mathematical formula column to illustrate the problem, although not very appropriate, but how many can help students understand:
  Assuming the origin of the universe and life as X. Find X =?
  Answers outside the church so that they do not reference or known theorem of the assumption, directly write the answer: X = God
  But God is there to it? See the following formula: X = God = Y
  Little idea of mathematics know, Y is an unknown quantity, in other words the question still unanswered.
  Buddhism simply deny 'God created the world' hypothesis, the universe simply does not recognize the first 'start'. One thing the so-called 'start' is only one thing before the 'end' it. In a series of cause and effect relationship, one thing's gone to other things, constitutes a condition arises.
  Dr. Zhang Chengji in his book "What is Buddhism? "A book on this issue have done the following explanation:" 'Start' concept, it is because human beings 'limited' psychological (produced), thousands of causality can not be covered. "
  For instance, we see a third of the 'Gone with the Wind' movie, from the seven 'Start' speech, to the ten 'end', but we think again, the third movie in the 'Start', in fact, the first Second Field 'end', while the third field of the 'end', not that the fourth field of the 'start' it?
  So the 'Start' concept, only makes sense in terms of a specific thing; on the whole complex of the universe in terms of cause and effect with continued, does not make sense. Ceaseless flow of time, who can find out the stops moving, the so-called 'now' point to? Then say this is the 'start' it?
  In fact, this type of Buddhism for the discussion of the issue of no interest in life, (the metaphysical philosophy) is not interested, because the universe is without beginning, and it is not the end, people racked their brains to pursue a 'first cause of the universe', it will be in vain, to no avail. When you painstakingly sought to 'first cause', you are bound to find it before there is a 'result'. This endless, again and again, you never fail a constant search for 'the first result of' to.
  Meanwhile, life is short, life is uncertain, and if you still want a dead end, then when you do not pursue to 'the first cause of the universe' the answer, you may be dead.
  In the Buddhist scriptures, there is a very wonderful metaphor:
  Topics slightly digress a little, and now we talk about Buddhism is opposed to everything in the universe created by God point of view, and that things are 'cause aggregation' made. Such as a mountain in front of us, it is the debris of the product; water from the lake is hollow; look at classroom desks and chairs, is made of wood carpenter. If the debris is not re-spread into the 'mountains'; the lake while the water drained into the hollow, where will the 'lake' shadow? Break up a felled wood then, does the 'chair' where?
  These are physical things visible, we may be referred to them called 'color', because they just 'cause temporary aggregation' only, not real change, so we say they are 'empty' - and not forever change entity. This is the Buddhist scriptures on the 'sex is zero', the simple truth.
  However, the Buddhist say 'sex is zero', this 'empty' word is not 'empty' the 'empty', not 'nothing' in the 'empty', but a mouth, 'Miao have' the 'vacuum'. This is how a statement saying it? Let me give an example to illustrate:
  Front of a glass of water, the water turned into steam after continuous heating, and no longer see the shadow of the water. It really does not mean that the water disappears into the 'empty', and when the water vapor when cold case, will revert to 'water' the.
  Moreover, people who know chemistry, know that water is hydrogen and oxygen compounds, in other words 'water' is just a temporary hydrogen and oxygen compounds 'properties' only. After the water through electrolysis, into hydrogen and oxygen to the will. Everything in the universe and so on, no one is not a cause temporary polymerization, and none of them is eternal. Cooperation will cause students, casual karma is off, where the Creator 'God'? How can an eternal being created 'all things' you?
  Seventh, the Dharma is individualized local conditions
  Buddhist view of living beings, are the root for different machines, with different time and space for Education. Buddha as enlightened objects, have a different interpretation: for example: For people with high intelligence, the Buddha told him to Zhizhirenxin, clear your heart, the moment that Gordon truth; for the lower wisdom of the people, the Buddha to told him that a gradual, step by step to the practice.
  Another example: For the keen and fame, the Buddha told him 'fame defeat for' the truth; and for negative and pessimistic view that life is meaningless, life is nothing dreamy all the people, the Buddha told him, 'Life is a rare, Life is precious, people can take efforts to obtain happiness and joy. 'To inspire his courage and confidence.
  Similarly, because of different time and space, the Buddha have a different metaphor and description: for example: Taipei, Buddha asked: 'How to Act in Taichung? 'Buddha's answer is:' south, 'The answer to the city's people say:' north. 'And so on, because living beings in which different areas, so the Buddha's answer is also not the same.
  Twelve have Tripitaka Dharma, eighty-four thousand Dharma (Dharma is the practice of the method). The practice of the methods are the root device to adapt to living beings, for the troubles of government and created by all living creatures. If there are no living beings will not need to have a Buddhist. Buddhism such as the 'medicine', beings do not worry 'disease', drugs is not necessary.
  Buddha handed down over two thousand five hundred years, can adapt to different times, different beings, that is he was able to individualized, due to local conditions. And this method of education, it is one of the characteristics of Buddhism.
  Eighth, Buddhism is joining the WTO
  Buddhism stresses the truth, although the ultimate goal is 'born', but it and the 'accession' of the spirit is not incompatible. (So-called 'birth' is not out, to escape the world, but the transformation of the world to rebuild the world.)
  The Buddhist although there are so-called 'Western Paradise', 'Oriental pearl world', etc. Pure Land, Buddha passed away he urges people to country, but little understanding of Buddhist truth, who knows, this is the degree of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas beings to an expedient convenience, the final aim of Buddhism is the 'paradise of the earth as sacred, become hell paradise. 'This is the real purpose of Buddhism is not to escape this world dignitaries Western Pure Land to hide their good fortune.
  Buddhism is not exclusive ninth
  Most of the world's religions, only admit their own religious doctrine and belief is the only 'truth', he taught catechism to the exclusion of 'heresy'.
  The Buddhists believe that all religions, there is only the depth of the distinction between doctrine, there is little difference between the good and bad, right from wrong. Any of a thousand years there is the religious world, the hearts of mankind will have a more or less on the benefits of, or the religion has long been the human 'wisdom' are cast aside, but also by the time the impulse waves lost.
  The only problem is that religion can only give some short-term, small happiness; and some can be tempting is the eternal religion, the majority of well-being. And Buddhism is the latter belonging to one of the few.
  Buddha handed down in two thousand five hundred years in peaceful coexistence with other religions, Buddhism has been, the history of other religions to preach and bloody conflict with the thing in the history of Buddhism have never been.
  'Truth' in Buddhism appears to be no borders, it does not need any religion 'trademark'. It does not belong to any one religion, or belong to any time in any one person. So Buddha says the truth, not his unique one, because the Buddha is only a 'discoverer of truth', just as Newton discovered 'gravity for', is not the same as Newton's proprietary. So Buddhism teaches that all reasonable, with eternal truth are 'Dharma'.
  'Love your enemies. 'Although from the Bible, but Buddhism is no doubt that it is a virtue to acknowledge the truth. (And Buddhism 'missed Daiji', 'great grief' the same.)
  Buddhism, like the vast ocean, it can accommodate all size of the rivers on the planet. Therefore, Buddhist, said: 'All law Jie Shifo Law' ah!
  Tenth, Buddhism is democratic and free
  In other religions, the words of the leader is irresistible 'command', that is, no doubt the 'truth'. Anyone who does not obey or slightly skeptical, then certainty of God Wrath of God punished.
  In the classic teacher clearly recorded in: human ancestor because it violates God's command, and never been out of the Garden of Eden; and their descendants - that is hundreds of thousands of people, including past, present and future thus also inexplicably followed suffer.
  According to teacher's explanation, this is called 'original sin' of the inheritance. 'Original sin', said the simple point is to give up the connection with the wisdom of God has its own wisdom, to see things from their point of view. Generations of human beings are like this, the natural "crime" also inherited.
  The idea of Buddhism: Buddhists believe that one work, one bear, murder his father, the son of hell can not the next. Son can not replace his father suffer. Here the "crime" refers only violated state law by the trial be "crime." And the "original sin" is not a concept, only "original sin" in reality a small show an extreme phenomenon.
  I have a better friend, he was a devout Christian, we used to before Adam and Eve eating the forbidden fruit was 'deported' stories, debates flushed.
  The following is the conversation we had:
  'Adam, why they were expelled from paradise it? 'I asked.
  'Because God does not listen to the words of Eve, the serpent's temptation by eating the forbidden fruit, he disobeyed God's command. '
  'I ask God is omniscient and omnipotent it? '
  'Yes, it is the omniscient and omnipotent. '
  'Well, omniscient and omnipotent Lord knew in advance since the snakes can not stand the temptation of Eve, the serpent still want to seduce her, not to stop, but also to punish them afterwards. This is not bad faith, intentionally incorporated in sin? '
  'Huh? 'My friend was finally worth a loss for words.
  Adam and Eve is such a muddle to be driven out. We followed the same way unwittingly suffer.
  In the Buddhist scriptures, the Buddha could not find the records will be angry. Forty nine years of cultivation in the Buddha, the disciples saw their mentor, always pleasant, compassionate and peaceful, he is so good, the bad guys too.
  Buddha said the truth of their own, not forced to accept his disciples, he also encouraged them to doubt ask questions. Until he was eighty years old at the Doubletree Borneo between about dying, still earnest in teaching and repeatedly asked his disciples there is no doubt.
  Buddha said: 'Great doubt have Dawu, only a small little doubt realize, no doubt never to discover it. '
  Finally, the teachings of the Buddha also said: 'I never thought that you are my disciples, all living creatures is my ...... I'm just one of you often and you all together. ...... I never oppressed people, important people will not obey me. 'This is how kind, how touching teachings ah!
  This allowed the Buddhist leader and to encourage believers to the truth itself has said, freedom suspect questions are discussed in detail in the spirit, I think it is unique in the world, right?
  Friends, the truth is not allowed to force others to accept, and compel them to accept that he did not understand, or he does not love, it is political rather than religious. Truth only in democracy and freedom under the premise of repeated speculation in order to be more to show its spirit and values.
  Religion in the world, only the founder of Buddhism and the classic is allowed to be suspected, discussion and prosecuted.
  Welcome to the spirit of research, there is an independent personality, wisdom and clever students to study Buddhism, Buddhism's door is always open for you.

What is Dhamma
  Hui paragraph excerpt from the Grand Master with the law of "Dharma pledge to reproduce," a book
  Are known to be a Buddhist view, be more positive perception of enlightenment. For enriching positive perception should practice law. What is law? Law of the Buddha discovered and taught; is Shishiwuwu are there; is Shengyi Di experience.
  Truth can not be created because it already is there. Shakyamuni Buddha discovered the world the universe, the truth of life and found the origin of the air, three methods print the truth, realized that living creatures have, such as clean as the nature of fixed, there are likely to Buddhahood, sentient beings to see through that addiction with the world tied to the illusion the magic of non-real, away from the Wang Zhi, is tirelessly, Cibei Xuan said.
  Each space-time are all causality, France to exist for each fixed point, every point of view, is the law live at the show were sitting and lying. Seeing heard, in all the birth and death Wusuo Zhu, obsessed with self-extinction of return, return nothing.
  Theravada broken ego, permit me empty. Mahayana breaking law enforcement, proof empty. Shengyi Di (Diyiyidi) but whether the meaning of that empty space that is not even the concept is also checked. If who have decided, no pollution, not to establish knowledge perception, we see that the true face. The beginning of further studies in order to hold, any security, reflection is hard Elementary, falling into deep power from the road can be when the phase, see the place that is true, everything is relative to the origin of all air, see all the phase that is now the shadow of the Buddha.
  Master Hongyi words: 'Buddhism is really able to get rid of all worldly delusions, but not with the right view; Buddhism is really to break the world all superstition, but not with the true faith; Buddhism is really able to get rid of all worldly evil, but not with the positive line; Buddhism is really get rid of all the world illusion, but with the Enlightenment. 'Henry is very superficial world, the line of the very complex; born Henry deep, line the very simple. A life if not every Dhamma, when indeed Fubao karma. Why is that? Therefore, no cause of death.
  This so-called Dhamma covered the Four Noble Truths, Origination, Six Degrees, Satipatthana, heart stopping view of five, the Noble Eightfold Path, thirty-seven products ...... of as_set_s. Million from the nature of regression, called the Dhamma. If the isolated statement that names the phase said. Is read from the clean nature of the former, that is, heretics. "King Kong" goes: 'If color to see me to ask my voice is pedestrian evil ways, you can not see the Tathagata. 'Cover five aggregates of the air, if Method knowledge and awareness, but instead of seeking knowledge and awareness of Method. Only down delusion, not to be compared sticks (cap phase is the cause polymerization, when the body is empty.), Before they join the people process, such as unhindered. What is concerned, is also not a thing originally.
  Human body is difficult, unpleasant Buddhism, such as the value of the blind turtle driftwood. Supreme Dafa heard from when the letter by the practice. Buddhism is based on achievement of the seven holy wealth, to 'the letter Choi' led; Pure Land III MERITS been drawn up to 'letter' as a prerequisite, we know that 'faith' is the lamp of night life and death, when the law every description of watercraft, take the hint Letter Permit solution, directly to Nirvana (see Nirvana at the moment of life and death.)
  However, the occasion of the decay of the world, cross-flow heresy, heresy, and since about that strange mysterious and so forth. For religious persons, when the Three Dharma Seals, a reality of India, the criterion for the definition of Fa, pick and choose carefully.
  If we can grasp the true spirit of Buddha's teachings - Three Dharma Seals, a reality of India, that was the essence of Dhamma.
  Three Dharma Seals means: impermanence, all phenomena without me, Nirvana silence. India who recognized the meaning of validation. To the three fundamental teachings, to distinguish between good and evil proven method, so called 'Three Dharma Seals', the content outline, performance starts as follows:
  ⊙ all phenomena without me: means the world all phenomena, both promising and doing nothing, are the origin of magic is there, there is no constancy, independent existence of entities or dominate. Buddha gracious exhortation: to be in contemplation at the time twenty-six 'without me, no I'. The four false-color body is the magic co-footer, who are all things I used to for me, not my all. If there were me, why I am the state of mind, life and death, none of the has been able to control? Indicates the 'I' no master 'I all', a 'me' meaning the opposite, and the ego was the common problem of all living beings, only put down the ego, before finding real me. Only the knowledge without me, the beginning of peaceful coexistence with the world.
  ⊙ Nirvana silence: the central idea of this Buddhism, which means no birth and no death, physical and mental Juji the state of liberation. If thinking of leaving Nirvana, Buddhism is just like birth and death of the world law, can only be called persuading, can not understand because of the air, the fruit of non-empty because of the deep and profound meaning of non-fruit. Income are not believers, to Nirvana for the death of each, which was a serious misunderstanding. If as they said, the death and the beginning of another life, so why not outstanding life and death? Long cycle of suffering beings robbery, is led by karma, for not the Lord. Only what Nirvana Buddha, with its death is no longer renewable, non-students is eternal, without beginning to break the cover is clear, thorough see true colors, which was known as the most valuable point of Buddhism.
  Mortal greed afraid of dying, because the world he do, there are solutions, with the exception of death, no discussion. Holy detached objects, but in real life, that is not immortal Nirvana Health and wonderful heart, called: 'No law enforcement were stained Liu Chen; Away Nirvana delusional name. 'Heart see method, called heretics; if enlightened the mind, that is Nirvana. Nirvana in this life and death and no distance, only one in the present study rooms. If understanding the nature of life and death, Nirvana were not available. I make life and death, but not industry, that is, too big Nirvana; if pursuing big nirvana, that is making life and death industry.
  ⊙ a reality India refers to a real goes, Li Zhu false moral principles of the Mahayana. That I called really as, Dharma. Input at the origin of law, away from all kinds of perception, both inside and outside air, the phenomenon of community living is the quiescence of the pure heart. Awareness million methods such as mist in a dream, that is, see body emptiness. Although everywhere illusory, but also everywhere in reality. Only the illusion up_set_, since the reality show.
  Twelve Tripitaka, the multitude; eighty-four thousand, more like Hengsha. Trying to use a limited life, open the eternal life of wisdom, when the method is based on four under, to humanely.
  ⊙ according to non-compliance were: Fa there are two, one for secular Dhamma means the text Tripitaka, Tripitaka on the matter phase, one for Sheng Yi Fa, evidence was seamless (no vacuum Health) truth. Walker should be teaching, the truth is believing, not blindly trust the origin of magic with the Chou Pinang. Method can be wrapped around the cover off the Zhuku guide Bodhi Way. I see people are inevitably subjective, if not deed Buddha, when Sheli.
  ⊙ according to the meaning of non-compliance can not be defined by: Tripitaka in and not have Yoshitsune Yoshitsune, the former refers to the reality of the meaning middle management, which is clever for the convenience of preaching and the right to declare said. Both the right red, since when according to the meaning of what can only escape by.
  ⊙ justice by failing to language: language as a tool to convey moral principles, and its role in the interpretation of the truth, then study non-truth. Must not forest for the trees, Shuaier appearances follow the text, taken out of context, but neglect to convey the inner meaning of which Suoyu.
  ⊙ knowledge by intellectual failing: the wise, non-intellectual debate Cong world, but the complete truth of Wisdom. Know who is confused by the illusion born Chen Jing Wang Xin climbing cognition and sensation. Walker was relied upon when the Prajna, the situation should not be based on the human consciousness to mean return, proved only what Nirvana.
  Buddha Dhamma solution when the letter, but when the powers of protection Dhamma. To do phase, in order to do everything we can mostly from Sambo, in terms of meritorious body, especially from the heart to be mostly from the present study.

Ten sect
  Hui paragraph excerpt from the Grand Master with the law of "Dharma pledge to reproduce," a book
  Refers to the roof of the Mahayana sect eight cases, three of cases, Consciousness-only cases, Huayan cases Lvzong, Esoteric, Zen, and Pure Land Buddhism, Theravada if coupled with the kosa, into a real two, is the general prevalence of the ten denominations. Buddhism first came to China, there is no sectarian distinction, due to Buddhist Translation prosperity, ideology and meaning have unique, complex to studying under their own lineage of the Zhuzhong differ by the theory, then sub-classified according to their characteristics taken , and trespassing in the Sui and Tang Dynasty temples, shine. But in fact the common spirit of the eight denominations, can [the origin of non-self, all the law without me. ] To summarize unifying. The so-called: "The Buddha of a round sound speech law, all beings have solutions with the class." As long as the contract manager an opportunity to Law Act Jietong Nirvana city. Sentence taken painstaking Dade founder, is to facilitate the sentient beings to understand esoteric Buddhism. Regardless of which faction has its valuable place, should be equal, as the. But promote Dhamma, still is the situation right, do not have non-human is, causing loss of Buddhism tenor, the so-called "Zheng and Tao contrary, not accidentally." When the random _select_ive attendance Zheyi. Cover the inherent depth of Buddhist circle of the other side, there is no right and wrong, good and bad points, mutual respect, to make copies of development, and better promote the prosperity of Dhamma.
  Dharma the blind, multiplying the size of the original no points. But the root device should be different, the pain of samvega world, but only from a person, said Xiao Shengfa free life and death. On COMPASSION grave, who want him consciously feel that Mahayana. This is individualized, but also can be sustained since the cause of Buddhism. Multiplying the size of the fight for thousands of years without break, Mahayana Theravada ignored, dismissed as coke bud lost species. Theravada Mahayana is that non-Buddha. Strict Hinayana precepts to one meal a day, under a tree one night, slightly dense reflection mode for the practice, its spirit is worth admiration. However, the Mahayana is absolutely Buddha. "Sutra of Perfect Enlightenment," "Lankavatara by the" content, and the founder of the realm of enlightenment there is no good different, you can learn. Otherwise, the "Pure Land sages recorded" record of the deceased deeds, and achievements of the founder of Zen, then how to explain? Multiplying the size of the ideological divide, is: Theravada four is a real identity, but analysis of space dedicated to this concept of breaking; Mahayana believes that the four images of the heart but is now clean from the illusion of the film, no entity can too. Hinayana view of space, but not easy. To achieve successful large quiescence at the Mahayana harder. The two are not right or wrong, just different ways of thinking, only mutual respect. As long as the opportunity to be able to benefit.
  Must not forget that Buddhism is one word, disciple of the Buddha to open mind as to accommodate the existence of alien to the great achievements of their own in order to reject sectarianism, partisan. Because the focus is not mostly from [a person], and in the powers of protection [total of Buddhism], mostly from [Fa]!

The contribution of Buddhism on Chinese culture
  This paragraph was adapted from Professor Lin Shimin of "the spirit and characteristics of Buddhism" in the contribution of Buddhism on Chinese culture, the chapter
  Among the world's three major religions of Buddhism, the oldest religion.
  After Buddhism was introduced into China from the Eastern Han Dynasty, more than a thousand years has been the main religion of the Chinese people, during the carry forward through advocating on behalf of the senior monks, many imperial Qing Xiang, scholar with profound knowledge also join the ranks, and finally to all levels of society deeply Buddhist. It's faith go to the public, 'every family Amitabha, Avalokitesvara household. 'It is a portrayal of the faithful; and part of the philosophy of Buddhism and Confucianism, Taoism and other combination of blending will be compared with stirring, then import the Chinese culture has a long history of the sea, forming one of the mainstream Chinese culture, for the Chinese Culture shines a brilliant light.
  Very wide range of cultural content, the project is extremely diverse, all human beings evolved from barbarism to civilization, all the total score, can be called culture. So, here I only want to give culture 'literary' one, with Liang and Hu's remarks on the ancestors of Buddhism input, influence and contribution to Chinese literature.
  First, Liang think there are five major Buddhist influence on Chinese Literature:
  (A) substantial expansion of Mandarin: Due to the translation of Buddhist scriptures, my vocabulary is increased over thirty-five thousand.
  (B) of the grammar and style change: the scientific sub-Shu Buddhist note of the study, the anatomy of style for the first time organized in China appear. The Zen of quotations, it is a revolution of Chinese literature.
  (C) the development of literary taste: our modern pure literature, like novels, songs, and the Buddhist are closely related to the translation. Motherhood, the water blue long narrative poems such as speech production, probably by no prophecy of the translation of Tan Jin Ming Ma 'Buddha lines like' effect. And Mahayana scriptures, begin with the most magnificent Wenlan, a very subtle interpretation of the teachings, to promote the Chinese people's imagination, innovation, written interpretation of the Chinese people, Song and Yuan dynasties affected a lot of novels.
  (D) the introduction of musical: My first musical - Call first (also known as pot head), according to research neighbor is pulling from the south near Tianzhu beans coming from the country.
  (E) copy letters: With the input of Buddhism, Sanskrit also followed in, the letters of the Sanskrit Buddhist monk to apply the character modeled on Qieyin, it is the Tang Shou Wen 'See Kai group suspects' such as thirty-six letter production.
  Second, Hu believes that the input of Buddhism to China has three major effects:
  (A) of the Buddhist scriptures of various masters of the vernacular with a simple and easy to translate the Buddhist scriptures, but to Yi Xiao, played without algae, the formation of a vernacular style, a Zen Buddhist vernacular poetry with an important birthplace of the vernacular.
  (B) of the Buddhist literature most imaginative, for the most unimaginative of Chinese literature, with a great liberating effect. China Romantic works, like "Journey to the West" and the novel is a product under the influence of Indian literature.
  (C) the form of Indian literature is focused layout and structure. 'Pu Yao by', 'line like Buddha', 'Buddha Bank by', etc. are great long story; 'must depend upon' a body of works of fiction class; 'Offerings',' thinking benefits Brahma After the Q 'and so is half fiction, half-dramatic works. The Buddhist input to future generations storytelling, flat, then, fiction, drama developed have contributed directly or indirectly, and Buddhist mixture of prose and verse and use the body, but also the literary genre in China was an impact.
  Far as 'literature' of a concerned, we have enough letters of the. The reason I is not afraid to quote lengthy to it, and it is hoped that we be vigilant, while Buddhism give more concern and attention. Buddhism is not an ordinary religious lightly, no matter the point of view to any walk of life, Buddhism is a close relationship with us, in particular its contribution to Chinese culture, it is denied.

  In Buddhism, Buddha is both a dependent, or in the statement of the metaphor, often one can see traces of incense. Tantra, the different deities and even have different dependent incense, incense and Buddhist, has a close relationship.
  As can Quchu all smell incense, not the net, people relaxed, produced by the wonderful music, so often used as a dependent the Buddha, the deity of the holy items, such as the "Su noted in Jing", put the incense as one of the five dependent, while the "big day by the" will also be listed as one of the six dependent.
  In addition to being used as a Most Excellent offerings, the fragrance of incense as much news, often classic in its practitioners to describe the precepts of morality. Such as "virtuous Hong Jing", the Buddha told Ananda, only the precepts of incense is not smooth, the impact of wind can be smoked ten general. The "Add new event", also to describe the fifth of the body of law in Hong known as the "five fragrant body of law."
  In addition, Hong is also a metaphor for Buddha's virtues, such as the "first Shurangama Sanmei Jing", the "Luminary solemnly" to describe the Buddha Tathagata who contracted the solemn virtue, just as the aroma of incense of people infected with the general . Incense for the messenger, and instantly accessible ten Buddhist soil. In Buddhism can be seen for the importance of natural myohyang. "Hong can do good, can also be committing evil." That is the reason.
