Master Huijing’s Dharma Words about Right View on Buddhist teachings
佛法知見
The Diamond Sutra says, “It is impossible to retain a past thought, to hold onto a present thought and to seize a future thought.” “No notion of their own selfhood, no notion of other selves, no notion of living beings, and no notion of a universal self.” and “If we see all notions with no-notion, we will see Tathagata.”
The content is not difficult to understand academically; but it will be very difficult if we want to realize its meaning in the context of True Mind. All these theories stated in the Diamond Sutra, however, can be instantly revealed if we are reborn in the Land of Bliss. Conversely, if we cannot be reborn in the Land of Bliss, we may not necessarily realize the principle of “eradicate the 'three thoughts', and empty the 'four notions'”—even we have held and read ten thousand volumes of the teachings.
《金剛經》上說：「過去心不可得，現在心不可得，未來心不可得」、「無我相，無人相，無眾生相，無壽者相」、「若見諸相非相，即見如來」。
這些內容若只當學問上的了解是不難的，但若求真正心性上的體悟，則非常困難。但我們只要往生極樂世界，《金剛經》的道理瞬間即統統顯現了；反之，若沒有往生極樂世界，即使誦持一萬卷，也未必能體證「泯三心，空四相」。
Namo Amitabha!
