How is Nan's physical condition? Is there anything wrong?
Reply to the letter "Meeting with Heather in a Group"
"Meet the South Division and form a group", ladies and gentlemen,
2010 65438+1October 22nd, the letter "Application for the Zen Seven Dharma Association" has been received. Heather has been notified. Heather asked the secretarial office to write a ghostwriting reply as follows:
They read the letter to me. Everyone said to ask me about Buddhism. I don't think I am enlightened, nor do I think I am promoting Buddhism. I don't have a so-called mountain gate and I don't accept apprentices. This has been the case for decades. Everything I know, in the book, is over. I have such a view when I study by myself because I was cheated.
Second, the so-called "not relying on people according to law, not relying on righteousness, not relying on righteousness, not relying on knowledge." If you have any questions, teach yourself classics. Why do we have to rely on personality cult? I'm over ninety years old, and I'm very tired. I have no spirit to associate with so many people.
Taihu University Hall is not a religious group and does not advocate religion. It was set up to study education and culture, and there was no regular enrollment. Good friends by fate, qualified, just doing research together. By chance, people who came to attend by chance went out to say what class they were involved in, and they all called themselves. I'm also here to sign the bill.
You read too many novels and stories. What's the point of finding a solution with a broken arm? Others jumped into the river without meeting. Others want to jump off a building and can't afford to kneel. Isn't that a threat? Where is the solution? Is it reasonable to be a man and do things? Didn't you say to learn Buddhism? Psychologically, they are forcing others to become threats, and they are deceiving themselves. I'm over ninety years old, and you have to threaten others to learn from me. Is this also seeking truth? You are all intellectuals. How could you do such a thing?
5. I never want to be a master, I don't want to accept apprentices, there is no organization, and there is no so-called "south gate". I have opposed sects and sects all my life, which is the habit of Jianghu gangs.
6. Do you think that if you worship the teacher, you will wake up? Will you become a Buddha? Is there a secret way to give and receive in person? Did you get the order? What a mystery! Constantly seeking the law to cross the sentient beings, I can't figure out my own affairs. Let's start from an ordinary life, be a proper career, be honest, behave correctly, not complain about others, be self-centered, hone our own mind and change our habits, and only then can we have the foundation for meritorious service. Otherwise, it will be doing nothing and living in an illusory fantasy. The focus of practice is to change psychological habits, and the focus of practice is assistance. Everyone is self-reliant, and self-reliance as soon as possible can be realized as soon as possible. With enough merits, you will develop your wisdom.
7. You asked me to study Buddhism. I'm over 90 years old, and I haven't found a real immortal Buddha yet. What's the use of asking me Stop being superstitious. My book is just for study. Don't be fooled. Among those books, The Analects is the center.
You should study Zen. Yangzhou Gaomin Temple, Xi 'an Wolong Temple and Fujian Daxuefeng are all practicing Zen Seven, and many temples are also practicing Zen. Why don't you go there? I didn't promote Zen. There used to be a meditation class, which was organized by an alumni reading club registered in a university. With the approval of the school leaders, everyone was strictly required to have learning qualifications, so they took turns to do research together for a few days. What will happen after it's over? Don't you want to go back and be an honest and ordinary person, hone your mind and change your habits? Of course, you have to go by yourself. It's better to ask for help than to ask for help! If you really believe in cause and effect, then you should behave yourself, which is what the wise do and the core of practice. Looking outside, complaining, idolizing, relying on others and playing with the realm are all self-deception!
