Zen Master Xuanjue of Yongjia, the Dharma heir of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng, was born in Wenzhou. Later, he realized the mind because he read the Vimalakirti Sutra, but no one confirmed it for him.

The cause and condition of Master Xuanjue of Yongjia Enlightenment

  Zen Master Xuanjue of Yongjia, The Sixth Patriarch The Dharma heir of Master Huineng, the common people are born and born, Wenzhou people. Zen Master Xuanjue It became a monk in his childhood. He is well-versed in the Three Canons, is proficient in the Tiantai method of meditation and contemplation, and is a daily practice among the four principles, and is permanently abiding by meditation. Later, he found out that his mind was revealed by reading " Vimalakirti Sutra ", but no one confirmed it for him.

  According to chance, Zen Master Dongyang Xuance, the disciple of Zen Master Huineng, came to Yongjia and visited Zen Master Xuanjue. The two had a great time talking. Zen Master Xuan Ce was surprised to find that although Zen Master Xuan Jue was born under the teachings, his words were intimately in line with the wonderful intention of Zen of the ancestors, so he asked, "Who will be the master of the benevolent?"

  Zen Master Xuan Jue said, "I listened to the sutras and treatises, and each had a master's degree. Later, in " Vimalakirti ", he realized the Buddha's Heart Sect, but there was no proverb."

  As soon as Zen Master Xuan Ce heard this, he took the opportunity to point out, "When King Weiyin got (Before King Weiyin, it is okay to understand without a teacher) . After King Weiyin was over, no teacher realized that he was all natural heretics. "

  Zen Master Xuanjue then begged Master Xuance and said, "I hope that those who are benevolent will prove me."

  Zen Master Xuance said, "I am so gentle. Caoxi has the Sixth Patriarch, who gathers in all directions and is the one who receives the Dharma. If you leave, you will walk with me."

  Zen Master Xuanjue then followed Master Xuance and went out to the water to Caoxi to attend the ceremony of Master Sixth Patriarch.

  When I first met the Sixth Patriarch, Zen Master Xuanjue did not worship, but turned around the bed three times, and then stood up with a tin.

  The Sixth Patriarch saw the spirit of Zen Master Xuanjue, so he deliberately tentatively said, "The monks have three thousand majesties and eighty thousand meticulous practices. Where does the great virtue come from? I am arrogant when I am born and be arrogant?"

   Zen Master Xuanjue said, "Life and death matters are great, impermanence is fast!"   The life and death matters are great, impermanence is fast, and in order to ease, I don't care about these minor points. ]

  The Sixth Patriarch said, "Why not the body is not born without birth, but is there no speed?"

  The Zen Master Xuanjue said, "The body is not born without birth, but is there no speed."

  As soon as the Sixth Patriarch heard it, he said, "So! So!"

  The Zen Master Xuanjue was so majestic that he worshiped and prepared to say goodbye.

  The Sixth Patriarch persuaded him to stay: "Return to the speed of (Aren't you going back too fast) ?"

  Zen Master Xuanjue said: "I am not moving, how can I be fast?" [The nature of self is originally without coming or going, so how can there be a difference between speed? ]

  The Sixth Patriarch then asked, "Who knows that the non-moving?" [You said that it is non-moving, so who knows that the non-moving? ]

Zen Master Xuanjue said: "The benevolent ones will give rise to distinction." [You are able to know and know, you are deceptively destined to distinguish yourself. ]

 The Sixth Patriarch said: "You have the intention of not being alive." [This sentence seems to be a repentant word, but it is hidden in the hook. If you have the slightest attachment to Dharma or have the heart to gain something, you will be hooked by it. ]

  Zen Master Xuanjue said, "How can you be innate without birth?"

  The Sixth Patriarch said, "Who is the one who is indifferent?"   The "Who is the one who is indifferent here" and the "Who is inactive" in the previous one. They are all murderous swords and living swords. It can kill and live. ]

  Zen Master Xuanjue said: "Discrimination is not the intention." [The "discrimination" here is not the delusional distinction of the first seven consciousnesses, but the direct intuition of "good ability to distinguish all dharmas and remain unmoved in the first meaning", which is also the " Diamond Sutra " that "the mind should be born without dwelling." ]

  The Sixth Patriarch saw that Zen Master Xuanjue had thorough understanding and left no traces, so he exclaimed: "Good! Good! Stay for one night less."

 So, Zen Master Xuanjue agreed to stay in Caoxi for one night. People at that time called him "Yi Sui" because of this.

 After obtaining the seal of the Sixth Patriarch, the next day, Zen Master Xuanjue went down the mountain and returned to Wenzhou, where he preached the Dharma and received the crowd. For a time, scholars gathered together and the seats flourished.

  Zen Master Xuanjue wrote a song "Song of Enlightenment" and an article "Zen Buddhism Understanding and Practice the Complete Purpose" before his lifetime. Later, it was edited and written by Wei Jing, the governor of Qingzhou, and wrote a preface. From shallow to deep, it was composed of ten articles, which were combined into " Yongjia Collection ", and was published in the world. For thousands of years, this book has been treasured as a treasure in the jungle and can be used as a guiding light for practitioners.

  Zen Master Xuanjue passed away on On October 17, the second year of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty (713), was 49 years old in the Spring and Autumn Period, and was posthumously named Master Wuxiang.

  Master Yongjia's "Song of Enlightenment" and the Third Patriarch's "Inscription of Faith", Zen Master Niutou Farong's "Inscription of Heart" and the Sixth Patriarch's "Hide" and several songs "Hide 1 Formless Song " are concise and concise, comprehensive and thorough, and are excellent guides for practicing hard work. Whether it is practicing meditation and purity or tantra, if you can possess this Dharma eye, you will definitely avoid detours when practicing. Even if Buddhists in the present era are far away from the holy day, if they can memorize these verses in their hearts, tear them up and savor them at all times, they will be able to open the eyes of wisdom and avoid being hidden by others.

Now, according to the rhyme and meaning of poetry, the "Song of Achievement of the Tao" is divided into sixty-three sections, attached to it, for readers to recite:

  1. Haven't you seen that you are a Taoist who has no knowledge and no way to do anything, and do not eliminate delusions or seek truth. The true nature of ignorance is the Buddha nature, and the illusionized and empty body is the Dharma body.

  2. The Dharma body realizes that nothing is, and it originates from the naive Buddha of nature. The five yin clouds come and go, and the three poisonous water bubbles appear and disappear.

   3. Prove the true form, no one's law, and instantly destroy Avici karma. If you lie to all living beings, you will be able to pull out your tongue and dust.

  4. Suddenly I realized, Tathagata Zen, the six perfections and ten thousand practices are round. There are clearly six interests in the dream, but after realizing it, there is nothing.

  5. No sin, no gain or loss, no matter how you find it in your nirvana. The dust mirror has not been polished recently, so it is clearly necessary to analyze it today.

  6. Whoever has no thoughts is no birth, and if it is true, there is no birth, there is no birth. Call the wood man in the mechanism to ask the Buddha to accomplish his merits sooner or later.

  7. Put the four elements, don’t catch them, drink and peck in the nirvana nature. All actions are impermanent and all emptiness, which is the great perfect enlightenment of the Tathagata.

  8. Decided to say that if you show truth, some people will not accept the feelings. The direct roots are printed by the Buddha, and I can’t pick leaves and find branches.

  9.Mani pearl , people do not recognize it, and they are collected by themselves in Tathagatagarbha. The six kinds of gods are empty but not empty, and a round light is not color.

  10. Pure the five eyes and obtain the five powers. Only verified is difficult to measure. It is not difficult to see the shadow in the mirror, but it is easy to catch the moon in the water.

   11. Always walk alone, always walk alone, those who are capable travel together to Nirvana, adjust the ancient spirit, the breeze is high, and the person who looks and is strong and firm is disregarded.

  12. The poor man, who is said to be poor, is actually poor but not poor. If you are poor, your body will always be covered with wisps, and if you are poor, your mind will be priceless.

  13. Priceless treasures, endless use, and benefits will never be stingy. The three bodies and four wisdoms are round, and the eight interpretations and six enlightenment are sealed.

  14. The sergeant will do everything, but the middle and lower levels have more knowledge and many people do not believe it. But who can exaggerate the dirty clothes in your arms, and who can praise your diligence outside?

  15. Follow him slander, let others not be wrong, and burn the sky and exhaust yourself. I smelled like drinking nectar, and it was instantly filled with incredible results.

  16. Observing bad words is a merit, and this is to become my good teacher. If you don’t slander enemies, how can you show no power of birth and compassion?

  17. The sect is also understood, and the theory is also understood, and concentration and wisdom are perfect and bright, and it is not stagnant and empty. Not only am I the only one who has achieved it, but all the Buddhas in the Continental Sand are the same.

  18. The master roared and said fearlessly. All beasts heard it and all their brains were broken. The fragrance and elephant runs through the flow and loses its power, and the dragon is silent and happy to listen to it.

  19. Traveling to the rivers and seas, hiding mountains and rivers, seeking the master to visit the Tao to practice Zen. Since I recognized Caoxi Road, I realized that life and death are not related.

  20. Action is also meditation, sitting is also meditation, speaking, silence, movement, stillness and body are peaceful. Even if you encounter a sharp sword, you will be free and carefree if you have poison.

  21. My master has seen the Buddha of Lantern and has been a forbearance for many kalpas. How many times you live, how many times you die, life and death are endless. Since I suddenly realized that there is no birth, I have no worries and joys about all honors and disgraces.

  22. Enter the deep mountains and live in Lanruo , and Cennong is deep and long under the pine trees. Youyouyou and sit quietly in the wild monk's house. Living and peaceful and living are really free and easy.

  23. It is time to realize it, and if you don’t do your best, all the behavioral methods are different. Staying in the form of giving will bring blessings to heaven, just like shooting at the void with arrows.

  24. The power is exhausted, the arrow is still falling, and the next life is not satisfactory. Fighting for the real world of inaction is like the gate of inaction, and entering the Tathagata's realm directly.

  25. But if you get the root, don’t worry about the end, just like the pure glass containing the precious moon. That is, you can solve this Ruyi Bead. Self-interest and altruism will never end.

  26. The moon shines on the river, the pine wind blows, what should I do in the eternal night? Buddha nature and beads are sealed in the heart, and the fog and dew remove the shiny body top.

  27. The dragon-subduing bowl, the tiger tin is removed, and the two cobalt gold rings vividly. It is not a sign of the form and the matter is empty, but the Tathagata's treasure scepter is in his own way.

  28. Do not seek truth, keep delusions, and realize that the two dharmas are empty and have no form. No form, no emptiness, no emptiness, is the true form of the Tathagata.

  29. The mirror of the heart is clear, the mirror is unobstructed, and the corridor is bright throughout the sand world. The shadow of the forest and silk in the world appears, and a round light is not inside and outside.

  30. Open-minded and empty, relieve cause and effect, and the recklessness brings disaster. The same is true for abandoning emptiness, and it is like avoiding drowning and throwing into fire.

  31. Give up the false mind, take the truth, and choose the mind to become clever and false. If a scholar cannot practice, he will deeply recognize the thief as his son.

  32. To damage the Dharma and wealth and destroy merits, all of them are mind consciousness. Therefore, the Zen masters the mind and suddenly enter the power of non-birth of knowledge and insight.

  33. A real man, with a sword of wisdom, a sharp edge of Prajna and a Vajra flame. Not only can it destroy the hearts of heretics, it has long been devastated by the devil's courage.

  34. Shock the magic thunder, beat the magic drum, spread the merciful clouds and sprinkle the nectar. The dragon and elephant step on the boundless steps, and all the three vehicles and five natures are awakened. The snow-capped mountains are even more greasy, and I often accept pure mountains and divine.

  35. One nature is perfect to understand all natures, and one law contains all dharmas. All water appears in January, and all water is taken in January.

  36. All Buddhas’ Dharma bodies enter my nature, and my nature is the same as the Tathagata. One place has everything, neither color nor mind nor industry.

  37. The blink of an eye and the end of the fingers is 80,000 gates, but it will be destroyed in an instant for three kalpas. All the sentences are not counted, so how can I negotiate with my spiritual knowledge?

  38. It cannot be destroyed, it cannot be praised, and the body is as empty as it is, and it cannot be bounded by the shore. If you are not separated from the place, you will always be clear. If you look for it, you will know that you cannot see it.

  39. Can’t get it, can’t bear it, can’t get it, can’t get it. When you are silent, you are silent, and the door of the Great Conservancy will be open without any obstruction.

  40. Someone asked me what sect to understand and report on the power of Maha Prajna. It may be either or not, and it may be unpredictable to go against the flow and move forward directly. I have practiced for many kalpas, and I am not just a casual deception.

  41. Build a Dharma banner and establish a purpose, and clearly the Buddha ordered Cao Xi to be. The first Kasyapa The first lantern transmission, the twenty-eighth generation of the West.

  42. The Dharma flows eastward and enters this land, and Bodhidharma becomes the first ancestor. The six generations of people passed down the world, but what is the most difficult thing for future generations to achieve enlightenment?

  43. True things do not exist, the falsehood is empty, and both existence and non-existence are not empty. The twenty-six emptiness gates are not attached to them, and the Tathagata's body is the same.

  44. The mind is the root, and the Dharma is dust. Both are like traces on a mirror. The traces and dirt are removed and the light appears. The mind and method forget the nature of the mind and method is true.

  45.Alas, in the evil world, sentient beings have little blessings and are difficult to regulate. The evil views are deep, and the demons are strong and the magic is weak and the resentment is harmful. I heard that the Tathagata's sudden teachings were heard, and I wish I could not destroy them and let the tiles be broken.

  46. Doing it in your heart, disaster in your body, and there is no need to complain about others. If you want to gain something, you will not attract any karma without any interruption, don’t slander the Tathagata’s right wheel.

  47.Sandalwood forest , no miscellaneous trees, Yu Misen Shen Master Shen lives. The land is quiet and wandering alone in the forest, and all the animals and birds are gone.

  48. The master, the crowd can roar at the age of three. If the wild gang chases the Dharma King, the hundred-year-old monster will speak.

  49. A complete teaching is not favorable, and if you have any doubts, you must fight for it. If you are not a mountain monk, you may be defeated by the constant pit.

  50. No, no, no, no, a slight difference will be lost. If this is the dragon girl suddenly becomes a Buddha, if this is not the good star, it will fall into depravity.

51. I have accumulated knowledge in my early years and have also discussed the sutras and theories. If you don’t know how to separate names and names, you will be trapped in the sea and count them as sand.

  52. But he was scolded by the Tathagata. What's the benefit of counting his treasures? I have always been a scattered person and have been a scattered person for many years.

  53. A kind of evil nature, misunderstanding, and fails to understand the Tathagata's complete and sudden control.The two vehicles are diligent and do not know the mind, and the heretics are smart but have no wisdom.

  54. It is also stupid, it is also a small slut, and the empty fist fingers give a real solution. The fingers are used as the moon and the effort is used in vain, and the root and realm are used to make a false and slap the monster.

  55. Only when one Dharma is not seen is Tathagata, can one be named Guanyin. If you understand, karma is originally empty, and if you fail to fulfill it, you must pay back your old debt.

  56. When you are hungry, you can’t eat. When you are sick, you will be cured. In the power of knowledge and insight in the desire to move, the lotus will never be destroyed. He bravely committed the crime and realized the truth that he had no birth, and became a Buddha early in the present.

  57. The teacher roared, said fearlessly, sighing deeply, and being ignorant and naughty. Only know how to violate the serious obstacles to Bodhi, but do not see the Tathagata's secret.

  58. Two monks committed adultery and killed each other, and Bo Li Yingguang increased his sins. Vimortal Taston eliminates doubts, just like frost and snow are extinguished.

  59. Incredible, the power of liberation, the wonderful use of the everlasting sand is also infinite. If you dare to give up four things, you will be able to save ten thousand taels of gold. The broken bones are not enough to repay, and one sentence is clear and memorable.

  60. The king of Dharma is the highest victory, and the Tathagata of the Continental Sands has proved together. Now I understand this Ruyi Pearl, and those who believe and accept it correspond to it.

  61. There is nothing, no one, no Buddha, and no one. The vast sand world is fermented in the sea, and all sages are like lightning. If the iron wheel top rotates upward, the concentration and wisdom will never be lost.

  62. The sun can be cold, the moon can be hot, and the demons cannot be ruined. The elephant is in a prosperous way, but who can see a mantis resist?

  63. The elephant does not swim in the rabbit's path, and the great enlightenment does not restrict the minor details. Don’t slander Cang Cang, I will be the secret of you now.
