Chapter 1046: Bathing Offering Method
The most miserable thing for people is to have no money. This is a very realistic thing. Money can bring good living security. Children need money for education, medical treatment, and houses need money. Life is inseparable from money.
There was once a man who taught the Cow King's Mantras and Sutras. He said that if there was no cause of giving in the previous life, the Bodhisattva would not be able to help him become rich and honored. Therefore, he should give more in this life to reverse his concentration of karma.
Some people who listen to the Dharma feel confused. They are now at the end of their lives, and there is no place to give money or things. If so, what is the point of practicing Buddhism?
This person did not understand the original compassion of the Niu King's Divine Pearl Heaven at all.
It is precisely because sentient beings have no cause of giving that they feel poverty and hardship in this life, which is a lack of blessings.
The King of Niu Shenzhutian said his mantra in front of the Buddha, with the purpose of increasing blessings and wealth to these sentient beings, thus entering the right concentration.
If according to what he said, the blessings of sentient beings in the hungry ghost realm are not as great as our human realm, they are greedy for karma and fall into the hungry ghost realm. We use the name of the mantra Tathagata to bless you with food and donate you. Hungry ghosts can eat food and eat it, and then you can turn to the heavenly realm. They are not suffering from hungry ghosts. Hungry ghosts do not give, so why can they be free from suffering?
When we recite scriptures and mantras, we can eliminate our greed and karma in our past lives through the power of the scriptures and mantras, so as to obtain wealth. With wealth, we can make charity, offer good deeds, and even other bodhisattvas and other good deeds.
This is the stage of accomplishment of the Dharani Dharma of the Vaisar King of the Greatest King of Golden Light. Those who chant mantras can first see the son of the Heavenly King, and thus get the money given to the prince of the Heavenly King every day. In addition to using the money for life, buying a house, buying a car, seeing a doctor, and solving all needs, they must be used to offer to the Three Jewels and giving to poverty. In this way, they can slowly enter the right concentration, and even see the Vaisar King of the Heavenly King in person and obtain the achievements of Siddhi.
The vows of every good god of heaven are similar. Their original wishes are the same. However, if you can not retreat, regret, and have no doubts, and sincerely worship and practice for three years, you will definitely make a fortune. However, once you have the desire to retreat, it will be difficult to achieve the mantra.
The Great Saint Happy Heaven is a very special existence in the heavens. In Nepal and other places, many shops worship him as the God of Wealth. He also has a special priesthood, which is to be a God of Guardian or a Door Guardian.
To practice the Dharma of Huanxi Heaven, you must add the eleven-sided Guanyin Mantra or the Jun Tuliming King Mantra, because if you make mistakes in some places and Huanxi Heaven is angry with you, you will be very sad. The mantras of these two deities can restrict Huanxi Heaven, so that he can only bless you, not punish you and hinder you. This is also the compassion of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, just like he is Tang Monkey King. Because he can recite the spell of the tight hoop, Sun Monkey has to obey and protect himself.
There are actually dozens of mantras about Huanxi Tian. Each mantra is used in different ways. This is also one of the very important methods in Tang Mili. However, only those secret mantras and hand seal rituals can only be a glimpse of the appearance of Tang Mili.
In the Secret of the Vinaya Kanaya Bhumi Yoga in the Tripitaka, Acharya Hanguang said this:
Teachers from ancient and modern times.
Because of the profound secret, it is not included in the scriptures.
Or if the truth is revealed, it may not be revealed.
Most of the last scholars were hindered.
Therefore, Master Hanguang personally never met Monk Bukongzhi.
Only then did I receive the secret meaning of this Dharma.
I will still briefly remember this.
This passage is very simple, meaning that it is a more secret mantra hand seal in Buddhism. In order to protect it from being stolen and destroyed by heretics, the translators or acharyas from the Buddha's era, from the Tang Dynasty or even the later period, would not record and spread it in the form of words, or only write mantras, but do not write methods of practice, hand seals, etc. For example, there is a peacock flying mantra that only hears its name but does not know its sound. Almost no one in the country knows the root of this mantra.
He was inspired by the fact that most sentient beings in the last era were hindered, so Acharya Hanguang personally heard this profound and wonderful secret method from Acharya Bukong, and briefly recorded it and spread it.
There are many classics in Tang Mili that are indeed not found in the Tripitaka that we see today. They are like the Vajra Handprints of the Immortal Traces. They have been face-to-face secrets for thousands of years, and the master teaches them in person.
So how should the Great Saint Huanxi Heaven practice? In this heaven, you can worship Huanxi Heaven’s Dharma image, and your homework remains unchanged. After completing your homework or doing good deeds every day, you will dedicate this merit to Huanxi Heaven. I wish him to grow his blessings, double his power, and become a Buddha as soon as possible. I am asking him to bless himself and satisfy his wishes.
This is a common method of practicing Huanxi Heaven. It is just worshipping Huanxi Heaven. You must worship carrots, wine, and dumplings (similar to rice cakes, Huanxi Heaven likes). This is a more suitable practice method for everyone.
You must diligently read the Heart Sutra Diamond Sutra and dedicate it to the heavens. The Heart Sutra is the Dharma of the Prajna Sect. The Prajna Sect also has secret practices. Those who can recite the Heart Sutra must be supported by the Sixteen Prajna God Kings and their relatives. After practicing the Eastern Secretariat, you will recite the Heart Sutra in order to make up for the shortcomings and make the deity happy.
As for the Diamond Sutra, it was a back door that Sakyamuni Buddha planned to open for us today, especially those who want to practice tantra.
Many people cannot obtain the inheritance, or practice the Dharma, and it is difficult for the deity to come and support it.
The main deity of the Heavenly Territory is the easiest to correspond to sentient beings, but many people still cannot practice it. This is actually not difficult. If you want the main deity of the Heavenly Territory to come to your permanent residence, just worship the image of the deity with the Diamond Sutra. All the celestial beings in the world must come to pay tribute and scatter flowers and offer them. As long as it is the Heavenly Territory, there is nothing that cannot come.
Sakyamuni Buddha also said that the heavens like to hear the Prajna Sutra. Reciting the Diamond Sutra has infinite merits and incredible blessings. If you can recite the Diamond Sutra for the Heavenly Territory you practice, he will be able to increase his light and power and be extremely happy. The Heavenly Territory is not as unfaithful as the human world. If you give him the blessings, he will come to bless you and accept you and will respond to your requests.
The effect achieved by practicing tantra can also be achieved by reciting the Heart Sutra Diamond Sutra and dedicating it to the Heavenly Deity.
The second method of practice is to ask for two Dharma images, one on the eleventh side of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, one on the eleventh side of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, and one on the eleventh side of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva statues can be slightly larger, and the eleventh side of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is placed in front of the Bodhisattva, and the offering remains unchanged. Then you need to recite the eleventh side of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva Mantra. You can prepare two clean basins, depending on your own table, one filled with enough water, first recite the eleventh side of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva Mantra 108 times, and then from the table, please place the eleventh side of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva statues in another basin, and use a clean spoon to scoop water to bathe the Bodhisattva 108 times.
