佛慢的生起 林钰堂

绵延提问
自知业障深重 智悲难彰
生活中尚分不清如何才合佛法
如何生起佛慢

佛慢并非说
我是佛 有我即不成佛矣

已经了解万法性空
从无来无去的空性中
随因缘聚散而显万法的流转
因此 因缘具足可以显佛

业障愚痴已蒙上师加持
及自修百字明法洗净
在本净之空性中
又蒙上师灌顶加持
播下菩提种子 而有长养成佛之可能

时时精勤佛课
处处依法行持
佛子饱餐法乳 行于正道
假以时日 因缘具足 便显正觉德相
如此信受 如斯遵循
便是佛慢生起之道

Cultivation of Buddha Pride


Cultivation of Buddha Pride Yutang Lin

Mian Yan asked the question
I realize that my karmic hindrances are heavy
And thus wisdom and compassion are difficult to emerge
In daily life it is still difficult to decide how to conform to Dharma
How do I cultivate Buddha Pride

Buddha Pride is not thinking or saying
I am Buddha
If there is "I," there is no attainment of Enlightenment

Having comprehended that all things are of Blank Essence
From the Blank Essence, within which there is neither coming nor going
All things appear, evolve, and dissipate as causal conditions gather and disperse
Therefore, when causal conditions meet Buddha will appear

Karmic hindrances and ignorance had been purified through
Guru's blessing and one's own practices of Hundred-syllable Mantra
Within the sphere of originally pure Blank Essence
Guru blessed one further through Tantric initiations
To implant the Seed of Bodhi
And thus nurturing into Buddhahood became possible

All the time practice Dharma diligently
Everywhere conduct oneself according to Dharma
A Buddha offspring thus drinks Dharma nectar fulfillingly
And walks on the right path
It is only a matter of time for all causal conditions to gather and meet
All meritorious and virtuous characteristics of Buddha will be apparent

Receive and uphold the above teachings
And observe and carry them out accordingly
Such is the path for the cultivation of Buddha Pride
