“Furthermore, Subhuti,
“a Bodhisattva's mind should not abide anywhere when giving alms;
“that is to say, he should give without a mind abiding in form,
“or he should give without a mind abiding in sound, or in smell, or in taste, or in touch or in things .
“Subhuti thus a Bodhisattva should give alms without a mind abiding in false notions of form (laksana)
“Why?
“(Because) if a Bodhisattva's mind does not abide in forms. (laksanas) when practicing charity (dana),
“his merit will be inconceivable and immeasurable.
“Subhuti, what do you think? Can you think of and measure the extent of space in the East?”
“I cannot, World Honored One!
“Subhuti, can you think of and measure (all) the extent of space in the South, West and North, as well as in the intermediate directions, including the zenith and nadir?”
“I cannot, World Honoured One!”
“Subhuti, (when) a Bodhisattva practices charity without a mind abiding in forms,
“his merit is equally inconceivable and immeasurable.
“Subhuti, a Bodhisattva's mind should thus abide as taught.




The following chat should be interesting to this Anonymous. :)

avatamsaka sutra

AA: Whew! I downloaded this chinese one and had a brief glance!
Actually all basic concepts of Buddha Dharma and situational usages in Daily life! Hehe!

Buddha teaching his students when problems arises!
quite interesting as a story book! :)



BB: Last time i skipped reading till the end parts, telling a man who traveled into many enlightened ones and asking what is the key to be enlightened and each one recommended another one. But it told how great each one can fulfill the sentient beings wishes, food, jewels, then expound Dharma to them

AA: Actually Buddha's teaches to give first n continue to do so, and do not expect any returns for your giving whether at first or subsequently.

However, this is hard to achieve as many still expect some form of returns!


Even a Smile is a form of return! 
Hahaha!


CC: I agree with that. Although in the progress of cultivating the resource path, to have that kind of mindset is quite a challenge itself.
But the words of the Buddha are no lies. Of course there's no loss to practice that.


AA: Actually when One grasps the fundamentals of no segrregation, no differentiation, no expectation, ..... by applying these in daily practice n life is already pretty adequate to just maintain!

However, many wanted to scale the Top of Tops!
These cravings are anathema to Buddha's teachings!


That's why when #2 throws "You Very High" at me, he told me he really don't have much "levels" at all!

Contradicting?

Not Having much "levels" also a form of differentiation, but One should not be too attached to use these differentiation & segregation to challenge others and to best others or to criticize others lol!

Buddha's teachings is not to be use against others for self-glory!
My writings seem to HURT many's EGO!

IF they but realize n drop the SELF, they will LOVE me!!!

Hahaha! I try to wake them up!!!

Sometimes Extreme Methods Work Better!!! 
:) :) :)


CC: Very well said, maman dear. Just what I had in mind as well :)

AA: therefore, I am Mafia maman!!! hahahaha!


CC: Funny that Avatamsaka makes our world a very tiny satellite, a part of the super grand universe. Scary karma that covers our eyes from seeing them.

But wait, you also saw them in the hotel hahahaha :)


AA: ya. that was a fantastic trip that Guru brought me, hahaha! 
DD  was so stuck that she didn't want to leave the room that day.

Attachment!!!
The experience is MINE n not stuck to the place where I experience the wonders of the astral trips!


2:55 PM (2 hours ago)

In sleep went to Malaysia n did a cleansing for someone cast by black magic.
Then met some Vietnamese!
They are looking for a good guru to take refuge n one wants to become  a nun!
I shared my sarira pendant's goodness with the few of them!
Hahaha!
They heard of guru but all the rumors that guru is no good!
Well?
Really interesting trip!  :)


CC: Fly fly leh in SE Asia hehehe. GM visited and walked together with me this morning in the dream.
Sudden fun dream.



Dear Anonymous, Thanks for your persistence in trying to share THESE excerpts from Diamond Sutra in Chinese and now in English! :)

If you read my articles with An Open Mind; you would have already glean the Answers to how much Lotuschef do understand regarding Buddha Dharma and not just an Isolated part of Diamond Sutra! 

You also should realize that Dharani = Sutra + Mantra; should be Taken Whole and Not In Little Bits.
It is best to share your Understanding or Reasoning of Buddha Dharma IN YOUR OWN WORDS, rather than Highlight an excerpt and Challenge someone to explain it to you.

Asking whether someone understand or not and if they don't they need to repent, is really not the WAY taught by Buddha and I am sure, your Root Guru, the one that you took Samaya vows with, also don't teach you this way, correct?

Want to learn, then please be HUMBLE!

Like "Getting Answers to Enlightenment from External Sources" ; really not the WAY to Go for any Sincere Cultivators! 


Once again, thanks for your sharing, however, do not breach disciplines by disobeying Root Guru's statements that only A Buddha can truly and fully explain Diamond Sutra and Heart Sutra!


O! just in case you miss these: Sariputra enlightens with Buddha expounding Heart Sutra! 
The best one to share this Sutra is My Root Guru, Living Buddha Lian Sheng, Grandmaster Lu, agree?



Dear all, if you read the above with Reasoning and Understanding; you would have picked up ---

1. Yogic Union with Avatamsaka Sutra and this union is a Permanent thing as my Root Guru stated before. :)

2. Dream Yoga - trips to give aid to those in need of help.

3. Diamond Sutra & Buddha Dharma - Understanding and also able to USE for Benefit of ALL! 

4. TBS' reputation or more correctly that of Guru, has been really smeared darkly by our veterans fellow students who are "in power"; "in control"; "in Core"; Agree?


Cheers all. Happy cultivating!


Om Guru Lian Sheng Siddhi Hom
