[11] What are the main contents of “The Outline of Buddhist Practice”?
From the second class, we will discover how profound and vast the Dharma is. The Buddha Dharma is not like the Bible, which is only one volume. It is a Tripitaka with 100 volumes. Before we delve into the ocean of Dharma, let us first grasp the core idea of Buddhism.
These are the four major themes discussed in our Buddhist overview. First, let’s talk about aspiration. In Buddhism, there must be a goal first, and then there is a process. No one do something without a plan, which is not Buddhism. You must first make a vow, and then guide your actions with the vow. You can only start if you have a certain desired result in mind. Only when you have a certain desired outcome in mind can you begin to take actions.
1:00
Because the content of Buddhism is too much, our life is limited, and Buddhism is vast. If you vow to be a great king in your next life, what should you do? How can the reward of the great king appear?
If you want to go to the Pure Land in your next life, what kind of resources and grains should you accumulate so that at the end of your life, Amitabha and the holy beings will appear before you? Therefore, we can only selectively practice Buddhism. Because Buddhism is vast and life is short, you must first know what you really want. First have a goal, then you can choose what is urgent and what is easy for the time being. So in this aspiration section, you should first set a goal.
The second is right view section. This is very important. A kind of truthfully wise observation,
2:00
this is the method of mind, to understand the truth of life.
The third is practice section. From the observation of wisdom and the goals we set, a practical driving force is generated by volition and the power of observation. In the practice section, we'll extensively explain the methods of practice and put them into action.
Finally, what kind of merits will appear? This is the section on attaining the fruit.
The first three sections of aspiration, righteous view, and practice are the causal cultivation, and they are what we need to do. The final attainment of fruit is the karmic reward in our future life.
This summary of Buddhism has four themes: aspiration, righteous view, practice, and attainment of fruit.
[12] Why are Buddhas called fully enlightened beings?
The word “Buddha” is originally translated from Indian word,
meaning awakening,
3:00
and the Buddha is a completely awakened being. Of course, this awakening means that he has wisdom in his mind. Whatever he does, he first makes wise judgments and then takes action. He takes action only based on volition and the power of observation.
It is like a person who wakes up in a daze from sleep, which focuses on breaking the evil. It is also like a lotus opening, which focuses on generating virtue. To eliminate evil, you basically relies on your own efforts. In our practice, we have inner observation and outer compassion. The inner observation is to eliminate evil, while the outer compassion focuses on generating benevolence. Our clear mind is more emotional and easily guided by our feelings;
4:00
When the Buddha's mind came into contact with the outside circumstance, he was not guided by his own feelings.
His judgment is wise and he is completely guided by the truth. He does what should be done. Look at outsiders or philanthropists, they also do a lot of charity work. But after you learn Buddhism, you practice the Bodhisattva Path and also do a lot of charity work, but the results are different. Why?
Why? Because when the ordinary does charity work, it is a momentary affection; he has a sense of compassion; he is sympathetic to living beings, and it touches his sense of compassion, so he will do something that benefits others. This is called good thoughts.
5:00
Good thoughts are triggered by feelings and must be stimulated by external circumstances, so one’s mind is undetermined. Sometimes one does good, but sometimes he doesn't necessarily do good. In other words, as long as you stimulate him with evil causes and conditions, he will do evil. However, the enlightenment of Buddhism is different.
The enlightenment of Buddhism is to eliminate evil, cultivating virtue and saving sentient beings is decisive: I must stop doing evil, I must cultivate good, and I must ferry the living beings.
I hope that we Pure Land Buddhists will gradually understand a concept: the vows we make in our minds are different. Some people vow to be reborn in the Pure Land, saying, "I really want to be reborn there." In your case, this is emotional, and it is a temporary correspondence and impulse.
