Sarira & Greed [2]

I am glad that someone is Mindful enough to put a Disclaimer like this:-

[龍宮舍利並不能讓行者擁有特殊的法力，也不是讓行者炫耀自身法力的法器。更不可能讓行者在修行路上一蹴而成，馬上得證果位。請擁有龍宮舍利或想請購的弟子摒棄這種錯誤的觀念，也不要被這種充滿貪嗔痴的謬論誤導。
Dragon Palace Relics will not let those who come into possession to equip with magical power nor can be used as spiritual weapon to show off one's spiritual power. It will never accelerate any progress towards spiritual enlightenment without one's engaging in diligent practise. For those who are currently owning the relics or wish to purchase them for the mentioned intentions, please abandon this misconception. Do not be mislead by fallacy that demonstrate any slightest degree of greed, hatred and ignorance.]

I received feedback that those retailers of Sariras in general weren't too happy with my recent article posted on 3 April 2012 : Sarira & Greed [1].

Their claims were that my article affected their business!

Guru said we in TBS should be honest in business.

In the above case, if their Sales Pitch is by attributing their goods which they claimed as Sarira of Arhats; Boddhisattvas and Buddhas have "powers" to smoothen your path in life, granting or satisfying all your cravings and desires irregarless; then they are just telling you what you want to hear as you already have preconceived ideas of such "powers".

Now Dragon Palace Sariras are said to be that left by those attaining Arhat level.

The Highest level for all Hinayana cultivator is Arhat; just below Boddhisattva and Buddha.

Sakyamuni Buddha encourages his disciples that have cultivated to Arhat stage to cultivate Boddhicitta to attain Boddhisattva and Buddha levels.

Guru spoke about this in one of his speeches. Guru said Buddha kicked the Arhat back to sentient realm to cultivate Boddhicitta.



Picture is of Arhat fish or Luohan fish. Note the Protruding head!

I have noticed some fellow lamas that have a protruding forehead and the skull is somehow bisected in the middle, separating front and back.

This is a very unique change in bone structure formation of those cultivating to Arhat level.

Just keep in mind that Arhat needs to cultivate Boddhicitta!

Boddhicitta as per Guru, in his latest Dharma speech yesterday,  is the vital ingredient to Buddhahood.

One is free to buy anything one desires.

What I wanted to bring out for all cultivators is to be discerning and learn the truth first then decide whether you need any sentient material for cultivation or for aid in self advancement.

Does Sakyamuni have them?

Hahaha!
