My friend came to ask, what do you want to see?

Later, instead of asking like that, he asked
What can you see? What will you see?
From the experience of Nanrenshan, I know that it is not people, landscapes or even the world, and its center is people’s hearts.
My chair is the center of the world.
What a great discovery that the human heart is the world and the center of the universe.
In the past, the ancient Egyptians thought Memphis was the center of the world, while the Greeks thought Delphi was the center of the world. The British thought the center of the world was in Canberra Garden, London, while the China people thought it was in Chang ‘an during the Roman Empire, the center of the world was in the Pantheon, and even Africans thought it was in Africa.
This is not because of ignorance or ignorance. Up to now, Americans believe that the center of the world is in Washington, but Russians believe that it is in Moscow.
When the earth was just found to be round, people thought that the earth was the center of the universe. Later, they found that the earth was orbiting the sun and reluctantly admitted that the sun was the center of the sun. Later, they found that the number of nebulae in the universe was swirling, but they were not sure what the center of the universe was.
In fact, this view of being the center is not wrong, because the earth is round, no matter which point is fixed, it is the center. Don’t say Chang ‘an, Rome, Memphis, Delphi, that is, I am sitting in this chair now, which can be said to be the center of the world.
From the point of view of cosmic limitation, what is wrong with saying that the earth is the center at the end of the Quartet?
This is never seen before, and from a big perspective, people in every era of history regard their own era as the center of world history. They should carry on the past and the future, carry on the exchanges, go to the holy place, carry on the eternal peace, and even if they don’t see the world after where, before me, are the ages that have gone?, they will be lonely and cry. Although we look at many times from a big perspective, their generation at that time all thought it was a vigorous era.
Personally, the process is the most important when everyone can’t recognize themselves. When we are children, we should recognize the world as a children’s center. When we are young, we don’t take care of young people enough. When we are middle-aged, we often don’t like avant-garde young people. When we are old, we always complain that the world doesn’t respect the elderly and respect the virtuous, or criticize the poor welfare of the elderly.
Who thought about the welfare of the elderly when we were young?
It is said that we can be said to be the center of the world from time to time, or that everyone thinks that we are the center of the world and refuses to admit that this is the reality of our world, but it is also the cause of the world. When times change, the center may not be the center, but from another angle, the center will become a border. Isn’t this all right?
The world center is actually not the historical world center, but a human reality.
In Buddhist classics, it has long been a profound insight that the center of the world is the center of the universe. The Buddha once said to Ananda in the Shurangama Sutra that if you are in the middle, you should be in the middle, if you are in the middle, if you are in the same table, you will be determined by the old man’s table. If you look east, you will see the southwest as the north, and the body will be mixed and messy.
In the Vimala Sutra, Vimalakīrti said to Maitreya Bodhisattva that Maitreya was honored by the Buddha, and his life was remembered by the past and the future. Now, if the past was born and the past was destroyed, if the future was born and the future was not, if the present was born and now lived, the Buddha said that you are born and old in real time.
The first paragraph of scripture is the last paragraph, but where is the center of time? It is not in time, but when Zhang Tiejun, a modern thinker of human nature, wrote two extremely white paragraphs from the romance of these two paragraphs, he said
In fact, the center of the sky is not always in the middle of the ground, but it depends on the surrounding area, east and west, north and south, north and north, north and south, south and south, south and south and north, and east and west are also called the Far East, but the coordinates of Europe and West countries are far east in China’s eyes, and China’s Far East should be the Americas, which can be proved, but it depends on people.
Time has passed, and the future has not yet come. Now, the moment is gone, and where is the moment? If we look at it this way, where is the past, where is the future, and now, the ancient and modern twilight is just a continuous long-term thing.
Does coming here let us see the truth more?
The shurangama method requires beading to say that when you know that your heart is empty, the clouds are still too clear, and the situation in the world is empty. You and others make a real yuan. These ten parties all know how to sell the round and carefully clean the glass in the middle, including Bao Yue’s complete enlightenment
In Buddhist scriptures, the human nature can be virtual, but it can be said that the virtual world is still in the heart, and the human heart is greater than the world. But this is from the big picture and from the small point of view, every ordinary person’s heart is also the center of the world, that is, it cannot change the big world and still have a decisive influence on the small world where he lives.
In Buddhism, it is said that in the deepest dark hell, the fire of all beings will be burned. When the Tibetan Bodhisattva passes by, Hwa-Sung Do will have a gorgeous red lotus. In the eyes of the Great Bodhisattva, Senluo Hell is a pure land full of spring scenery. Why not?
The human heart is the world
In recent years, the deterioration of public order has become more and more distressing, especially this year, when I play newspapers every day, I will always feel a tightening in my heart. Why can those atrocities happen every day? Where is the problem with this meeting?
Many experts tell us that we should start with the education of family and school associations and strengthen the police force to change the extravagant and lewd atmosphere, etc. But when we find that people with higher education can kill themselves because of their anger, especially when police officers often commit corruption, robbery and murder because of their greed, we know that the problem is not that simple.
What is the focus of home school association education? It is also in people’s hearts.
The basis of Buddhist thought is to know and realize from the heart. The Buddha has long told us what a person is going to be. Now he is destined for the future. The road is all from the heart. From the world law, the mind is pure, but it is beyond the three realms to become a holy witness. From the WTO law, the mind is pure, which can make the country peaceful, Antai and the world peaceful.
Buddhist scriptures often say that the heart takes the heart of arhat, the heart of heaven, the heart of animals, insects, ants, birds and beasts, the heart of hell, and the appearance of hungry ghosts.
A person, a society and a country are corrupted. Simply put, it is that the heart is infected with the inability to clean up, and the factors that affect the heart are greed, ignorance and slow suspicion. The incident that shocked us by printing newspapers is not caused by greed, ignorance and slow suspicion.
In the early years of the Republic of China, Master Xuan Xu, a monk, said in his memoirs of Shadow Dust
Dharma maintains everyone’s heart like a slender wick, like a lamp filled with wisdom oil, which ignites people’s heart. The wick in the lamp shines all over the world, which is the border world, but if the wick is removed, the lamp will be extinguished immediately. In other words, people’s hearts will lose their moral education, and if Invid is removed, people’s hearts will be irretrievably corrupt.
The human heart is not the center of the world, but the human heart is the world.
See all dharma circles in the dust
From Nanrenshan to that early morning, I specially went to the lake where a red water lily was planted to watch the lotus flowers rise in the early morning, and the egrets were awakened by the sunrise, flying gracefully around the valley with egrets, and the light rain frogs jumped into the lake from the lotus leaves, and a circle of tiny ripples spread all the way around and finally spread into a great circle.
I think the same is true of people’s hearts
In the face of no matter how good the lotus flower is, no matter how beautiful the water color is, you can’t calmly and clearly feel that everything is disconsolate.
I think of a passage in Hua Yan Jing.
Good men should be intimate, that is, all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas should be intimate, that is, Buddhism, so they can clean up everything and brake into all robberies. Therefore, good men should be kind to help their hearts, that is, the rain should moisten their hearts, that is, the rule of law should be wonderful, that is, their hearts should be refined and solid, that is, they should be humiliated and humble, that is, they should meditate and be clean, that is, that is, they should be wise and benefit, that is, that is, that they should be initiated by Buddha and
We are all good men and good women in the world of ten sides. In this vast marginal time, we may be small, and the burning flame of the world can’t be quiet to stop the world’s noise, but if our hearts are full of fragrance and solemnity, we can make the world full of bad things.
See all dharma circles in the dust of the lotus hidden in the world sea.
Isn’t that what Hua Yan said by Lu She? In this treasure lotus, the Buddha’s pure land, and in this vast land of the world, you can also see all dharma circles in every little bit of dust in the sea.
What a beautiful realm this is. People’s hearts can be as small as dust, but as big as they are, they can be found all over the world.
Then a good man and a good woman sit down and meditate and come back and look at their hearts.

24. Fear 1 Never forgets to say that you are afraid of knowing everything, knowing everything, knowing the desire of all beings, saying that you are afraid, saying that you are good at answering questions, saying that you are afraid, saying that you can break things, being suspicious and saying that you are afraid.
