第五层禅定~殊胜的高王经 Stage 5 of Samadhi~The Magnificent High King Sutra



  • Entering Gao King's Avalokitesvara Sutra

    In my travels during samadhi (deep meditation), I once entered into a very wondrous realm. I actually leaped into a sutra and encountered the Samadhi-Light Tathagata. 
  • The words of the sutra got gradually bigger and bigger, and then countless number of Buddhas emerged from the sutra passages. 
  • The Samadhi-Light Tathagata was in the lead with countless Buddhas behind him. Each of them was seated on a lotus throne radiating immeasurable light. This was truly a magnificent sight.


    Chanting Gao-wang Sutra 念高王经?
  • GM Lu asked that day how many can stay focus while chanting Gao-wang sutra once?
    Well, I can do so!
    I can stay focus and continue to chant for almost 5 hours, after practicing to void out Sight & Sound!
    [I chanted Gao-wang sutra >250 times during this 5 hours.
    And it took me about 5 days to complete a 1000 rounds of this sutra.]

    AND, the sights that flash by like a video when you are deep into Gao-wang sutra is truly amazing!
    Don't believe veteran students words about the sights you see when you are chanting mantra or sutra.
    They really have yet to experience such wondrous sights!

9. High King Avalokiteshvara Sutra

The High King Avalokiteshvara wearing the Seven-Buddha Crown

We visualise the eight-petalled lotus, in milky white colour in our heart chakra slowly blooms, and in the centre sits the High King Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. All around the Bodhisattva within the lotus are the buddhas and bodhisattvas mentioned in this sutra.

We now have a lotus in our heart chakra filled with dazzling light like that of the stars shining brightly, and we have actually the mandala of High King Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva – that means pure land!

When you have pure land in your heart chakra, you have no more darkness, worries, sufferings, cravings, desires, angers, hatreds, aversions; and all you have are wisdom, compassion, bodhicitta for all beings.

Maintain this visualisation, and we chant High King sutra.

**If you chant more than once, you can proceed with visualising yourself enlarging gradually and merging into the Universe.

In recent speech, GM Lu shared concepts of Stage 5 Samadhi :)
Also another visuals when chanting High King Sutra!

When the words of this sutra floats up during chanting!

Hahaha!
Remember that I advised how to stay focus to eliminate wondering mind & wild thoughts?

YES! 
To calm one down, one can chant the Heart sutra and keep one's eyes or focus on the words of the sutra, chanting slowly following word by word with eyes and sound.

Same thing can be done with the High King Sutra.
Practice make perfect!
To those diligent ones out there, having the words of High King Sutra appearing as you chant is not a problem :)
And, likewise, sighting the appearance of each divine one mentioned in the sutra as you chant is also a common occurrence!

The Key is whether you have been practicing or cultivating with sincere diligence or not.

Do put in diligent efforts to learn and practice what GM Lu teaches!

You will soon realised that your wisdom level grow with each "sighting", and you are actually into Lojong or Mind training already. :)

Still, do or don't, all up to the individual!
