Infinite Life Sutra of Mahayana - part 1.

Ten years ago, in countries all over the world, teaching us many times the Infinite Life Sutra, the profile is about ten times so far. Each lecture are not the same.
This time we decided to go over by the recent opening of this book, there are many open new markets. Venerable old used to say: "the realm of practice is not the same every year," I think we have to bring new treatment places yet to share with fellow practitioners.  Our focus on "practice" and "evidence" for the majority of experienced practitioners practicing long time, both the old convent, knew the scriptures, and are "education, management, practice and fruit "that the Buddha called the" Church Business, Business Management, Business Administration, Business Performance ". Office of the economic order of the "Church". Moral reasoning account of technical writing was called "logic". Content taught us how to study, how to bring texts practical application in the life called "Action". Our focus on "practice" and "evidence" for the majority of experienced practitioners practicing long time, both the old convent, knew the scriptures, and are "education, management, practice and fruit "that the Buddha called the" Church Business, Business Management, Business Administration, Business Performance ". Office of the economic order of the "Church". Moral reasoning account of technical writing was called "logic". Content taught us how to study, how to bring texts practical application in the life called "Action". all three generations ten Tathagata Buddhas for all beings boundless told not to leave the practice of this problem. So essentially economic problem of the Buddhist credo of fullness. all three generations ten Tathagata Buddhas for all beings boundless told not to leave the practice of this problem. So essentially economic problem of the Buddhist credo of fullness. as a ritual but not practical turn, no refuge, refuge is so fake, "nominal". Refuge in the Buddha is not feeling love, the law's chief medical misconduct, refuge net increase is not infected, three things we have done or not? "Three Self refuge" is always written on the subject of, a new generation that is the fullness of the economic problem. as a ritual but not practical turn, no refuge, refuge is so fake, "nominal". Refuge in the Buddha is not feeling love, the law's chief medical misconduct, refuge net increase is not infected, three things we have done or not?

Virtue, merit, causal incomplete. Just missing one of these three conditions, prompting them to regress. But who meet the dharma we regress quite a lot, why? Virtue, merit, causal incomplete.

Sleep time is relatively long, so his wife to call him up. Just pull the nets out, appalled wife chickened soul cried when he saw a horse lying on the bed. inside our everyday thinking. One day nap, thinking he dreamed horses, it's time to focus all mental. Sleep time is relatively long, so his wife to call him up. Just pull the nets out, appalled wife chickened soul cried when he saw a horse lying on the bed.


































Hearing screams, he woke up and did not understand what bewildered. During lap think horses should be turned into a horse, not perhaps think of the Buddha, the Buddha does not turn into stars? Obviously ethically. So the fellow you should keep in mind, think of Bodhisattvas Bodhisattvas turn into immediately, thinking it turns into evil demons, hell think it turned into hell, think what it will turn into something. Buddha too obvious for truth and moral truth, the Buddha taught us thought "Buddha Buddha mind, the future of money, decided to see the Buddha." We often each day starting from early evening to delusion, not to Buddhist thought, so from here, just genuine feeling that forming a true street legal Nianfo is essential. A true Buddhist mindfulness Street lawful important than anything. The Buddhist concept is the recruitment Buddha, the Buddha there to do. It is the content "Mahayana", meaning the One Vehicle. 
fourth is the " Infinite Life "
"Infinite Life", Sanskrit called Amitabha, the Buddha also has the meaning of Amida above . "Amitabha" translates Boundless Light, the Infinite Life. The original intent of Sanskrit, "A" to the Chinese translation is Forever, "Di Da" is translated volume, the original intent is Infinite. What is infinite? All are immeasurable, without things that are not infinite, infinite wisdom, infinite merit function, immeasurable talent, as well innumerable blessings. Nowadays everyone wants to finance, the wealth immeasurable, without any secondary immeasurable. Put a little rough, a multitude of pores, a dust also immeasurable. All Tathagata Buddha at the top of the Dhamma preached hair, the hair is not bloated, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas do not shrink. This is purely the realm of "the myriad of problems, a myriad of problems" of the Flower Adornment Sutra, not a law that is not infinite, all take all measures are nowhere throughout France. Infinite Life Sutra is minimized, is the essence of Huayan. Hoa Nghiem said "Minister Luc Huyen Cross" Infinite Life Sutra is also "Cross Continental General Legend". Moreover, every word in every sentence of fullness are full "Cross Continental General Legend", the ancients called the "Flower Adornment high volume" is not without moral. 
easy to understand, yet Exalted two types: Unknown The amount of Boundless Light and Life of expression are all immeasurable. "Optics" is nowhere light throughout the legal world, the light that shines everywhere. So now we call space. Quang Minh expression space. Life Network of expression time, including past, present, future. If the meeting time - no, the whole universe is contained thousands of things in it, things do not trot. Buddha used to explain both the Boundless, said comb is also very fulfilling. So we thought meticulous testing, said the current No Time, Buddha said Quang Tho, Quang Tho meaning better not No Time? In Quang Tho spirits; Time Not entirely into physical, not spiritual nature. Quang Tho spirit was still so much more fulfilling than two words No Time. 
Soon the infinite virtue of which the ancients remind us, in all reality is infinite, Tho occupied the first position. This we can explain, if all of us are immeasurable life span but no, there is not an array or what? Life does not use what we have, so even infinite in all, life is the first network. Hence, new users "Infinite Life" to explain Amitabha. 
Bliss Western World have great teacher, Lord Buddha Amitabha is effective, may well from the field until the successful fruition After his achievements, he has expanded, helping all beings not take damage throughout France within a fullness of life to Buddhism. It is not inconceivable, it is of immeasurable immeasurable, one must be meticulous new opportunity can be one, two, or a few parts. Our life is the infinite. Life of expression in place? Expression right "Tin Chapel, Happy" our insights not comfortable, absolutely not wavered, set voluntary prayer resilient force, nor anything that can dazzle, so that "Faith, Prayer, Happiness" Our achievements. 
Fifthly, the word "Dignified"
"Adornment" if the current language that says is good, the ultimate good. Bon prayers to the "Best User Specialist Chi, Adornment that." What is it? The ordinary listener can understand it is the Western world, to understand how only half true, half where? The circumstances of the current residence is we that. When we recently converted realm, then this place is that, although this is not true but it is also almost identical. 
Tiantai Master Lu said that, similar news, stock news section, the western world The Bliss That is the ultimate. "Most professional direction will", just to get us to do "even the most professional direction", this present world into the Pure instant or so. "Landscape mind moving up", if this will be the opportunity to closely can imagine. 
At Eastern Jin era, Plot masters in painting Telecommunications Industry Jiangxi Nianfo build the East Forest. At that time, many people practice Buddhist concept, it's where they are it, why? As each person entered are "even the most professional direction." 
book of teaching methods Amitayus practice, practice platform "concept a heart specialist Amitabha Buddha, Bodhi release". The circumstances of the author is that, is the Pure Land. The ancients had great faith says "the realms pure pure heart." In this ashram, the person calm mind, people who are remembered Buddha Buddha. Gaya failed so how is Pure? Coincides coincides Dignified wins, thousands of natural object is the same amount, inconceivable touch. 
Talking to "Pure Land there, great merit, fully dignified". This statement is obviously praise the Western world, why? Ten includes all realms in which beings. The Buddhist concept of rebirth in the Western world, everyone calm mind, Buddha Buddha are remembered. The Western world is a big ashram, we can imagine. 
During this experience, Shakyamuni Buddha Amitabha Buddha praised "the extreme religious Optics, Buddhist kingdom high cost." Shakyamuni Buddha represent all Buddhas such praise, not any praise Buddha Amitabha Buddha is "the extreme religious Optics, Buddhist kingdom high cost", based on what? Based on his world. All those reborn in the Western Pure Land no pollution hearted person, per each are pure. The country is in the realm of the Buddhas of the ten directions not found. Ten Buddhist realms are naturally dignified calm, but there are still some people who are more or less starting delusions, but few accounts. Saha world of ours, sorrow being the majority. A thousand people, up to nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine who are starting delusion. Major difference is that the UE. Having the world, there being half pure hearted, half impure mind. 
Pure, pure hearted majority, about 80%, 90%, still 10 to 20%, heart impure, how similar the Western world 100% pure Bliss. The fellow you must keep in mind, the mind can not be impure Pure birth. It's not just recite the Pure Land given to birth. Reciting ten thousand Buddha brand name, but in my heart constantly delusion, the old saying "sore mouth, sore throat, only in vain." Pure hearted, a concept only ten titles, twenty titles and achievements. 
The ancients proposed "ten French expression". We recommend the tenth anniversary of the initiate method is simpler. Once the ten words "Amitabha Buddha" concept ten consecutive title. In this short time, one can not expect alternating concept caught on. This concept is called "contemplation", no more mixed. Reciting many will start delusion. Ten questions not start delusions concept, which is contemplation. Each day anniversary nine times, did not give any date, it's called "continuous", in accordance with said business "contemplation of continuity". Many practitioners recommend using our method was effective recognition. Hopefully, at least nine times a day, as much as possible of course will. This is the easy way photography center. West wins of Bliss is the Amitabha Buddha to lead. World Amituofo welcome immigrants settled. But the conditions for immigrant purification. Use any method to attain what is pure, Buddha also, also meditation, religious education also, mantras also. 
rebirth Three levels of chanting Upper Middle Lower. The study and practice of Mahayana practice the pure hearted, vowing to birth, can go. Amitabha Buddha door wide open, do not say absolutely no concept of the Buddha Amitabha, the procession is not, this is no morality. Just pure hearted, any arbitrary religious practice that, both of them were, can be reborn. I used the above argument in Australia, popular discussion forum in a total of fourteen religious organizations, including Buddhism, Taoism, Christianity, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, ... I told them "not the conclusion of any religious practice, just practice purification vow to reborn, Amitabha Buddha leads all come to." Buddhism equality, non-racism and religion. Amitabha Buddha is welcome, we do not comment any religious practice, our conclusion is not religious, just pure hearted religious vow for rebirth, Amitabha Buddha will come to lead. This method is great, not all chains of different sects practice, so new so-called solemn. So the Western world stately Bliss wins nothing by. 
"Mahayana" "Infinite Life" "Adornment" are our moral character, moral nature of sufficient capital, we expect the results reported bridge. Where purpose Buddhist? is to be achieved "Mahayana, Infinite Life, Dignified". So how can be achieved? Recommendations business behind making method. 
part before said, to achieve even this life "Infinite Life" to be or not? Okay, now this is our life Infinite Life, this life is not dead certain. Dead stars can also call longevity. Jing Tong wins is not dead. If good practice, even everyday life to true repentance consumption karma. Otherwise it is a hindrance. Negativity is the obstacle, an obstacle worry, is encumbered obstacle, an obstacle sickness. Eliminating obstacles objective is karma, let go of all, every minute of every hour to maintain the purity of his own heart.
Sixth word " Purity "
Purity is not contaminated, whereas "equal "is not discrimination. There is no distinction equality, good or bad is still not pure. This is preferred, the other hated, so we have contaminated certain obstacles. Why are some people recite rebirth not sick, that is always on, seems to have had an appointment with the Buddha, then kept standing appointment that went, sat down and went, an order in? Our days ago in Taiwan, Venerable Dao Nguyen told us a story of rebirth is real. We do not remember her name, but they recite before rebirth also told people that "You've never seen or heard of sitting reborn yet?" People can reply. He asked: "You've never seen or heard of the standing reborn yet?". People also answered yes. At that moment, he immediately flips a head wishes down, legs upward, and rebirth. See, that's the rebirth how beautiful, very liberated. Why can he do? Because his heart pure, without pollution. He liberated even in everyday life, rebirth and liberation, liberation of all. He lived to die, to go where no dead, completely dead. This body does not need anymore, the Buddha's body in exchange for, what death is about. 
Without suffering, happiness entirely in order, to change body wins a lot more than this current body. Doing it clear, the Western world Bliss "pure body, can not be damaged," it is up to the body to mental states, such as transformed enormously take on economic Exalted has said "hundreds of thousands of breast incarnation". Shakyamuni Buddha reincarnation memories hundred thousand, the rebirth to the Western world, whether low-level human inhabitants holy rebirth are demeaning capacity as Shakyamuni Buddha, "hundreds of thousands of memory body ". If so, we can simultaneously offering boundless Buddhas, while listening boundless Buddhas teaching of the sermon. Today we studied misery, the economic life is not some way to inform, but to the Western world, a time in which we learned a lot. This realm, for ten thousand years we have not been, but in the Western world, an hour, we heard all three generations ten Tathagata Buddha preached lecture, wins nothing equal.
therefore wants to cure the fullness of wisdom must be reborn. No demand can not be reborn. No rebirth that only want to rely on their own practice, though private practice and is the negativity, get rid of the three worlds, ceiling laid down to ignorance, beyond the ten measures, are also arduous, miserable, not easy What easy. As said by that time, countless lives could still not sure whether ultra Vietnam achievements of France's ten, proving the Bodhisattva Teachers Head Admin, Admin Head from Vienna to witness the Buddhas. It says in the scriptures, and have gone through three great eons, to do with the Western world. 
fellow heard some words that our skepticism: "Amitayurdhyana Buddhist Sutra in no way saying this, lower rebirth demeaning to flower opening twelve new life is Buddha. " Not wrong, but we should know why Buddha said to say this. We have to rely on a Buddhist sutras. It definitely depends on Infinite Life Sutra. Moreover, the Infinite Life Sutra, the sixth by the forty-eight vows of Amitabha Buddha said, Sakyamuni Buddha Pure introduced us. Three of the Pure, if there is a question as opposed to forty-eight vows, we can not be trusted. Open the book, every sentence each word corresponds with forty-eight vows. So why Bhagavan says this legal? We must understand the meaning. Reborn in the Western world without conclusion duty blessings prayer Da Di, we lowered down to the religious rebirth flower opening twelve new life is Buddha. "No blessed conclusion" that sense. In this the secret meaning. 
Password stating that the Western world do not equal wins. We take this realm that said, lowering down the rebirth that is mundane, a product is not the affliction. Pure Land birth, also contains the negativity, let alone twelve life is Buddhist flower opening. In Zen Buddhism, the fully enlightened, intelligent mind is emptiness, cylindrical primary teacher status. We understand, if not in the Western world, an escape from the ordinary to the six realms, like super Vietnamese ten Members of France's evidence was based Admin, Huayan said of going through countless lifetimes. Why do we have to go through such a long time? Because regressive over time, the less far back, not to mention the degradation conditions. Bliss World West Coast but no degradation progress, so twelve consecutive successful life. Twelve over countless lifetimes, reduced time too many. Wins the Western world as the Buddha said so.
however the actual situation is different, see Forty-eight vows, the Western world is based on most of Pure tone. Amitabha Buddha said, people living in the Western world are the Pure A Duy Vietnam Chi Bodhisattva. A Vietnamese Bodhisattva Wei Chi is? In the legend of the ancient faith, the lowest position is Lost Land Institute, the highest position a sensory level Bodhisattva. In other words, both born in the Western world, our throne from the lowest address up to Level Seven senses. It's incredible. Ten Thanh Van, Pratyekabuddha, Bodhisattvas are not heard and believed. They practice hardships, retribution achieve very little, and we did not do anything significant, but a step up the sky, Seven Places instantly became, of course, can not believe they will serve, though not for information but that is still true. Why we can reach fruition so high? Primordial blessings of Amitabha Buddha. The practice called "binary method forces". It was just his full "signal, Prayer, Happiness", set prayer conviction, he is Buddha, forty-eight vows of Amitabha Buddha will bless us, that helps us to ruling the world living in West The Bliss with dignity, achievement wins. 
spite of investigations throughout the Tripitaka also said there is no way out of this Infinite Life, of Amitabha, so we must trust. In ancient times this method of learning, but we have never seen or heard of the phenomenon of rebirth should not need discussion, but since we are exposed to Buddhist teachings, the fact we verified the medical practice that in practice, people actually had to die standing, sitting that went, saw and heard, can not be assumed.
58th In National Minorities, our teaching experience in southern Taiwan, with a layman to tell us, the general's wife Liang Dai Nam Buddhist concept of rebirth three years standing, there is no disease. This hearted woman, Virtue, in everyday life people never contend with, not with his hustle, advance to day life, filial children. So she let go of thousands coast to study Buddhism at first did not understand what Buddhism is, seeing it as an idol to worship Lord Buddha and Bodhisattvas Saturn Street, Thanh Hoang are also bodhisattvas, regardless of mental and Buddha, worshiped everywhere. Three years earlier, her son married, the bride can understand little of Buddhism should not advise her husband worshiped many places that specialize in the worship of Amitabha Buddha, Amitabha Buddha's anniversary. Her mother married the inherent virtue, and he's sure to receive word khuuyen daughter, specialized Amitabha Buddha concept for three years. Today is reborn evening, while preparing dinner, she told family members that: "The child just before a meal, not waiting for her, she went to bathe." Son and daughter-filial still waiting for the food. She took a bath for a long time without seeing down, the more impatient the preview. Indeed, she had to take a shower but then not to eat but to recite the family's small, neatly dressed colon, hand strung. The children call her but not see her reply, she walked over to see himself ever was reborn, reborn stand. This is what happened not long, southern Taiwan today when referring to this, a lot of people know, so it's impossible for rumors.
Another case, when we were in the Old American Gold Mountain, an old woman sitting rebirth. My life is very hard, both spouses must work, if only based on a person for money, do not feed the whole family. When a child, most couples to invite their parents to child care, cooking. So the elderly in the United States is relatively hard. This old woman was a fake Buddha, the son-in-law go to work, go to school grandson, alone in her house Buddha, very calm, nobody harassed. Do not know how many years have thought that day she went out, leaving her no one knows when. Early one morning, a strange in that house because she had to wake up every day cooking breakfast. Not sure why her nap today so, new people to open the door, put elderly woman sitting cross-legged on the bed legs. Watch carefully approached and saw she was gone. This phenomenon rarely seen. She wished to move in front, in addition to wills also curious for his son, daughter, grandson. Also she may not know it from time to time, homemade, partial part to just before bed. So she has to know before going to prepare wills and other early fondness for his children, then sat down to recite.
therefore just a pure mind, we can do it. Why bother to bring the world irrelevant, inconsequential things mixed impurities contained inside. To learn certain purity, truth know the past, present, future. The prospect is a bright array, so no matter what the world saw and heard were not so in love, that do not see, hear or hear, every minute of every hour to keep a calm mind. Others succeed, we can succeed, even if not, still have pure heart, all let go, let go now, do not cling. There can thus reborn Bliss. 
Saturday is the " Equal Enlightenment "
Equal Enlightenment is absolute equality, enlightened mind. Equality is the true heart, true nature, as pins. Equality is the practice of "not two", also the second one that is not equal. We must strive to learn by yourself switching concept, the realization that a. One is equality, "things such as," the scriptures say, "As the market fell documents". Why the scriptures are used as the first word "like"? Things as one, it is true to say, as to the texts, we will share further. We must cultivate absolute equality, regardless of training. In this life, may make a difference or not? Of course, still be distinguished, distinguished because it is distinctive, their attachments, we have to deal with them. For example, they say this is the Buddha, we are known as the Buddha, because they're not distinguish discrimination. Really do not have in our hearts the Buddha. They say the generals are called, also known as the instant one, customized beings that we distinguish distinguished, depending on the attachment that was being attached, but in his own true heart regardless, no attachments . This is the practice Equals Pure Awareness. 
differentiate There are also mundane attachment, this life is not a way to solve the problem. Realms where that place? From that idea, discrimination, attachment turn out. If there is no attachment, there is no way even though we were six that idea, regardless. Destroy the illusion, regardless, we will approach the ten super Vietnamese, because ten is due to the legal world of delusion is distinguished variables. Vietnam ten super legal world, legal world immediately entered the First Truth. Best Legs In the legal world, although still a delusion delusion, but it is very thin, not obstacles. However, it is not the end, because delusion is ignorance. Flower Adornment Sutra says, "Forty-one products ignorance" had to take the fullness of the Buddha. Buddha stated, the six realms of the ten measures what it was due out, is fake. Quick turn delusion, discrimination, attachment is also false, the realm of the stars is true basis is variable. Ten realms are no real legal world, 
"All the officer,
period falsehoods market,
compounded legal Necessarily,
cell As illusory image "
If mind is wrong. Want to rebirth themselves in, they must let go of beautiful things, the truth as to be pure sense of equality. 
franchise the most wins in equally popular all enlightened beings. In other words, the teaching of the Buddha being equal, this method is not inconceivable. All other disciplines are not saying this. Bodhisattva, Thanh Van, Pratyekabuddha sun, how can the equality of Buddha? Infinite Life Sutra teaches us equality in Buddhism, the so-called Economic Equality, this approach is called equality law, the school also called Equality learning. Equality is the nickname sense of Amitabha Buddha, as well as enlightenment of all Buddhas. Just a Buddha are called Equal Enlightenment, Buddha Buddha equality, the Bodhisattva Bodhisattva still not equal. Only Buddha and Buddha equality, the Buddhist Buddha, as are all of the delusion, discrimination, attachment, both generals appear equal. 
Eighth is the "Business"
