Running King and Wei Zi
You should know that the six divisions in the wheel of desire are: heaven, human, Asura, hungry ghost, hell and beast. Do you know what "day" means? It refers to all heaven and man, including the Jade Emperor. All sentient beings (six sentient beings) in the six divisions of the Karma Wheel have a lower status than all sentient beings (such as Buddha, Bodhisattva, Jue Yuan and Wensheng) outside the six divisions of the Karma Wheel. Only the six divisions in the wheel of karma (such as Buddha, Bodhisattva, Jue Yuan and Wensheng) are the most expensive. That is to say (there are only four sacred dharma circles), Buddha, Bodhisattva, Vishnu Buddha and Arhat are the biggest.
Guess "Jade Emperor" and "Lohan", who is more expensive and who is lighter?
Buddha said: Arhat is expensive. Because the Jade Emperor (also known as the Emperor of Heaven, that is, Heaven, who is still in the wheel of karma and has not yet left the Three Realms) is a six-way ordinary man who has not yet left the misery of life and death, and Arhat (also known as Zihan) has got rid of the worries of seeing and thinking, which proves that he is above nirvana. Once he has obtained this fruit position, he doesn't need to repair or learn again, which is the supreme fruit position in Hinayana Buddhism. Although he belongs to the lowest status among the saints in the world, he is also a saint after all, still exceeding the level of the four streets of heaven and earth. But beyond the six divisions of the wheel of karma, he has transcended the three realms. He is a saint who is completely out of the misery of life and death. Therefore, Arhat is more expensive. He is the superior of the Heavenly Emperor (the seventh heaven of Buddha, lower than the spiritual realm of Christian Jesus, with magical power, blessing power, longevity, meditation power, wisdom to overcome difficulties, pure compassion, administrative power and status, kindness and emotional power, namely the Jade Emperor). When the Emperor of Heaven sees Arhat, he should sincerely bow and kowtow. We should know that Heaven Emperor (that is, heaven is among the six divisions of the wheel of karma) is a tiny Wang Di, a tiny heavenly king, and a god within the three realms of heaven, earth and man (heaven, earth and hell). But after all, he is six ordinary people who have not surpassed the three realms, and there is also the possibility of falling into endless hell. According to the records of Tibetan scriptures, endless hell is called endless hell for four reasons: "It is the god of all the celestial bodies in the three realms and twenty-eight days, regardless of gender, race, age, rank, dragon, god and celestial body, not to mention the ultra-low god, the Jade Emperor, which is also called the Heaven Emperor. Fortunately, there are four heavenly kings below, otherwise it will hurt people's hearts. " If you look closely, have you ever said that the four sacred dharma circles (such as Buddha, Bodhisattva, Jue Yuan and Wensheng) may also fall into endless hell? Because the feeling of the Four Saints is a supreme fruit, which has reached the other side of immortality. Those who transcend the six realms and are not in the three realms are saints who have completely escaped the pain of life and death, that is, they will never enter endless hell. You know, not only is Luohan more expensive than the Heaven Emperor, but all the Buddhas outside the Three Realms are more expensive than the Heaven Emperor. Such as: Dragon Lohan, Tiger Lohan, Deer Lohan, Long Eyebrow Lohan, Happy Lohan, etc. All Anahan, Stohan and Suda are bigger than the Emperor of Heaven, do you know?
Heaven is heaven, and heaven is still in the six realms and three realms. It is six ordinary people who have not yet escaped the misery of life and death. The four sacred dharma circles (such as Buddha, Bodhisattva, Jue Yuan and Wensheng) are the highest fruits, reaching the immortal realm. And beyond the six realms, he is a saint who is completely out of the pain of life and death. Heaven (Heaven Emperor) may also fall into endless hell, but he knows the horror of karma and dares not do evil, which leads to a small chance. All beings in the Four Holy Dharma Boundaries will never fall into endless hell, and the probability of possibility is completely zero. Heaven (the Emperor of Heaven, also known as the Jade Emperor) is one level lower than the four sacred dharma circles (such as Buddha, Bodhisattva, Tathagata and Arhat), and the four sacred dharma circles are all his superiors. Simply put: Buddha is the boss ("Buddha" is supreme in Buddhism and the first noble life in the whole universe. No noble god or non-god can surpass it, and it is the big BOSS of all beings in the nine dharma circles.
The second child of the Bodhisattva ("Bodhisattva") has vast magical powers, boundless magic, superb skills and incredible magical powers, second only to the Buddha. Regardless of the contrast, "status, theocracy, wisdom, kindness, blessing and mana" are lower than those of the Buddha. Only Buddha is the most comprehensive in all aspects, and there is no such thing as a saint.
The third Buddha (note that the Buddha is not a Buddha, just with the word "Buddha". Compared with "Buddha", he is still very different, just like one in the sky and one in the ground. In fact, he is higher than the four kinds of fruits in the sage Arahant, but lower than the fifty-second order of Bodhisattva, and there is a relationship between them.
Luohan Laosi (don't mention Luohan, even if you get the lowest fruit position in Luohan, you will also hear of Suduo. He has always been supported by people and is the superior and mentor of Tian.
Heaven (three realms and twenty-eight days, everything goes to heaven, and the Emperor of Heaven is among them) belongs to the fifth.
The Emperor of Heaven, like people in our Jambu-Di^pa world, has seven emotions and five desires. The so-called "seven emotions" are joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil and desire. The so-called "five desires" are wealth, color, fame, food and sleep. These five desires are also the five roots of the underworld, so we should immediately cut them off, and then clean up our "body and mind" five desires (note: only the six levels of heaven in the realm of desire have five desires, but as long as we practice to the realm of color and above, we will never be able to live without them, and we will be completely clean of the poison of the five desires and no longer be controlled by them). There are three poisons: greed and ignorance (so-called: greed gives birth to hungry ghosts, anger gives birth to hell, and infatuation gives birth to animals). Moreover, they are also chanting the names of Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva and Tibetan King Bodhisattva to accumulate virtue. Neither Buddha nor Bodhisattva.
Hua Yan Jing once said: "Our sentient beings have created a deep karma, created many disasters and made people miserable. The Jade Emperor was ordered by Sudo. In the past seven days and seven nights, he bowed down to avalokitesvara, with the purpose of asking for mercy to eliminate disasters and increase happiness. " It can be seen how kind the Jade Emperor is!
Buddhism divides all sentient beings into ten categories, that is, the ten dharma realms. Buddha, Bodhisattva, Jue Yuan, Vincent, Heaven, Asura, People, Animals, Hungry Ghosts and Hell. The top four are the six divisions in the wheel of karma, freed from the saints of life and death. The last six are ordinary people who have not been freed from the cycle of life and death. In other words, you should live forever, whether it is good or bad, high or low, according to what you do, and be dominated by karma. At the beginning of a new life, when good deeds are mature, people, heaven and Asura will enjoy a beautiful life. If the bad karma is mature, it will be forced to turn to the three evil ways and be born. There is no fixed realm in life. They are all drawn by good and evil karma to feel different lives of bitterness and joy. The Jade Emperor was born in heaven because of his good deeds. But after the end of this life, I will be dragged by good and evil, and then reincarnated in other ways. So he has to be dragged by karma to survive in six environments, good and bad. However, in the Six Paths, there is less joy and more bitterness. Achieving goodness is like a person falling into the sea for a long time. He just came out to catch his breath and fell down again. Very bitter. All beings in the Four Saints' Dharma World are saints who have escaped from the misery of life and death and are no longer degenerate. Guanyin Bodhisattva is, of course, a saint who walks out of the sea of life and death and gets happiness from suffering. And the jade emperor also suffered a lot because of this blessing. If he had bad karma in the past, he would take three evil paths to live, be an animal, be a hungry ghost and go to hell. This has been going on. Because you didn't achieve employment, what goes around comes around, and good and evil are rewarded. The Buddha lived from generation to generation, preaching the consciousness of all beings and learning the law of life and death. So that all sentient beings can break the mystery and realize the Tao according to his method, get rid of the bitterness and joy, and finally become a Buddha.
In Buddhism, which level is higher, "Arhat" or "Jade Emperor"?
Next:
Buddha-Bodhisattva (Mahayana)-Vishnu Buddha (Yuanjue)-Arhat (sound and smell). Then there are three fruit positions: Anahan (three fruits), Stohan (two fruits) and Suda (the first fruit).
Above, the first four are saints, who have been freed from life and death. Although the latter three have not been freed from life and death for the time being, they can be freed even if they bear fruit for the first time, and they can go back and forth for seven days at most. So, these beings. No longer ordinary people.
Then down:
Heaven and Man (the Jade Emperor was among them, and was often attacked and bullied by Asura, and suffered a lot)-Asura-man-beast-hungry ghost-hell.
These six sentient beings (six sentient beings), although the results of good and evil are different. The first three are called "three good roads" and the last three are called "three evil roads". However, there is no essential difference: they are all ordinary people, and no one can escape life and death. It is entirely possible to fall into hell and rise and fall in the Six Roads. For example, the cloud "You Spit Plug to Solve Classics" says:
"All the pagans, and so on. Long life, if you don't separate, you should be regarded as a person in hell. " (think about the highest realm in the sky; The separation method is a partial separation method; At least it is the first fruit of hearing.
As mentioned above, the combination of "six sects and four saints" is "ten dharma realms have feelings" covering all sentient beings. It should be noted that the ten dharma circles all have feelings, each with its own "Buddha nature" and all have the possibility of becoming a Buddha. Therefore, the Buddhas enlightened all beings, freed themselves from life and death, and even became Buddhas.
Based on the above knowledge, the landlord can understand that the Jade Emperor and Arhat are ordinary sages. It's like a world.
All beings become Buddhas after all!
Nanwu teacher Sakyamuni Buddha.
This question should start from the ten dharma circles. The Buddha told us that the whole universe, that is, the space containing our earth, is composed of ten different energy spaces, which are divided into six realms and four sacred realms. The six realms are what we often call "the six divisions in the wheel of karma", that is, heaven (immortal realm), Ashura realm (demigod realm), humanity (us), auxiliary path (animal path), hungry ghost path and hell path, in which all beings are troubled by their love. The four sacred realms are composed of practitioners who are completely aware of the truth of the universe and have no worries and love desires. It is divided into four levels of life: the study of smelling the sound track (smelling the Buddha and realizing the Tao), the study of Yuanjue Taoism (having no chance to smell the Buddha but being able to experience the Tao personally), the study of Bodhisattva Taoism and Buddhism.
Therefore, the jade emperor is at the highest level of the six realms, and the heaven and man in the sky are blessed immortals, but he is still in the six divisions of the wheel of karma. For all the low-level heaven and man, he is a leader, so he is called "God Head"; For the preparatory staff of becoming a Buddha, he is old and young, and the distance is too wide, so he is called "Buddha's tail", that is, "God's head and Buddha's tail"; Buddha is the highest level of the four sacred realms, and Tathagata is another name for Buddha. Guanyin Bodhisattva is second only to Buddha, and they are four or five grades higher than the Jade Emperor (please note that they are four or five "extra large" grades higher)!
Arhat University, of course. You should know that the fruit position of all beings in the four sacred realms is always supreme. And beyond the three realms, reached the realm of immortality. Although the Jade Emperor is the most advanced of the six realms, he is still in the six realms and three realms, and he will suffer from reincarnation after all.
The realm of four saints is a saint who has escaped the suffering of life and death and will never fall again. He has never suffered three evils, and he is a saint who has completely escaped the pain of life and death. However, the jade emperor suffered a lot from this blessing. If he has done evil things in the past, he will be dragged down by karma, that is, he will fall into three evil ways, and he will also be an animal, a hungry ghost and go to hell. He is a six-way ordinary man who has never been beyond the misery of life and death. The jade emperor is lower than the four sages, who are also his superiors.
The jade emperor wants to worship when he sees Sudo. Because it is recorded on the Buddhist website: "When the jade emperor sees the scriptures, he will bow down, and every order, decree, will and order he makes will not dare. Moreover, Sudoku claimed to be "this seat" in front of the jade emperor, and the jade emperor did not even dare to look up at Sudoku. " And that's what the Buddhist book says.
"There is no Buddha in heaven, and the world of ten parties is unparalleled. I have seen everything in the world, and nothing is like a Buddha. " What does this mean?
It is in this ode that there is nothing more remarkable, extraordinary, supreme and incredible than Buddha in heaven, on earth and in the whole world. No one can compare with Buddha in the tenth century. I have seen everything in the world, but I have never seen anyone as noble, noble and first as Buddha. Why can the Buddha achieve the merits of this ode? You know, this is why Prajna Paramita made Buddha the only Buddha in the world. Because he realized the Prajna, he realized the Prajna now, and he perfected the Prajna. He is the most noble, superior, distinguished and first in the world, which is unparalleled in the world. Everything in the world has been seen, and it can't be like Buddha.
