Master Chin Kung - Dharma Cannot be Away from Samadhi 佛法離不開禪定
(English subtitles) Master Chin-Kung (淨空法師) talk Dharma.
Subtitles:
Therefore, Buddha dharma cannot be away from samadhi. Without samadhi, there is no buddha dharma. The 84,000 dharma are 84,000 different methods. Different doorways, different means. It is all about practicing samadhi. We should never misunderstand samadhi, thinking it must be cross-legged facing the wall, and that is samadhi. That is only one of the 84,000 methods.
What about the others? It is all in our daily life. From waking up in the morning to going to bed at night. Dressing and eating, working and dealing with people, there is nothing that is not samadhi. It is just that you don't know how to practice.
What about knowing how to practice? Work as usual, no delay at all, and mind is immovable. No delusion, no thought, no discriminate, no attach. That is, intrinsic nature is originally calm. The entire universe is running there, but he has no emotion or thought . That is, the intrinsic body doesn't interfere with matters. Matters don't interfere with each other.
2:00
What is the mistake? That is to arise delusions and have thoughts. An unawakened mind starts a thought, and we have mistaken many truth for wrong phenomena. It seems to be correct but it is wrong actually. Those are physical phenomena and natural phenomena, which change with your thoughts. If you are kindhearted, it becomes a blissful world. When you think of heaven, it becomes heaven. When you think of hell, it becomes hell. So all matter are not definite (which follow your thoughts). Basically, there is nothing.
