011. The death of Buddha

Introduction

The story of Buddha's death is about the history of Chinese thought, which is not suitable for Western friends to see. In China, there are many people believe in Buddhism, but few who really understand it. Buddhism is also a study of human beings, but because of various historical reasons, secularization and Buddhism have been separated.

In China, the Buddha's lineage ended with the Sixth Patriarch, Huineng. It's not that no one has tried to continue it, that it could not be raised any higher; any higher and it would have to enter the Secula.

Although there are many Buddhist scriptures, they reached their peak during the time of the Sixth Patriarch, but they did not reach the ultimate level, and is no need to delve into them any further. Although there are many Buddhist scriptures, it is enough to only read the transmission of the Dharma by the Buddha ancestors and listen the heart music of Buddhism. In these two aspects, readers need to understand it by themselves, and it is problematic to only listen to the explanation of the masters.

The scriptures of the Buddhas are very wise, but they are often misunderstood, and if you understand them by yourself, you may be able to find your own.

An example:

The Buddha Shakyamuni entered Nirvana and said the verse of impermanence: The various actions of the present world are inconstant, and so the method of extinction is the method of life.

The Buddha Shakyamuni's verse of transmission of the Dharma: No law is also a kind of law.

Sakyamuni did not figure out how to get the law, and he did not figure it out, so he came out. Laws are based on the coordination of reasons and principles, and if they are not coordinated, they have no future development prospects and are the road to self-dest.

One example is enough to provide, the Buddha's two aphorisms have cause and effect, the first one is to write the situation at that timeto extinguish the law as the living law. The second one is about how the law came, but it has not been thought clearly, we think the problem can not be ended the true meaning of Sakyamuni is known. Nature contract is also a kind of contract, things are coordinated, and each gets benefits.
