Eight Steps and Three Meditations3

(Eight steps and eight steps three meditation, the tutor enlightened, eight steps is the method, establish the concept, think about life, constantly repeat the mind, but also need to have a sincere, serious, honest attitude, remember the first time to meditate, the legs do not feel comfortable, put down not disk, that is not sincere, see the class group **** practice when other brothers are sitting cross-legged, I can only be honest cross-legged, and now also developed the habit of every day, can also be (Now I have also developed the habit, and every day I can also seriously sit with my legs crossed, listen to the Tzu Ching and do the fixed class.) Eight steps of three meditation, meditation in the eyes of the general public thought that is in the eyes closed, cross-legged meditation, in fact, is a kind of heart kung fu, how to use the heart will be how to change our heart, there will be a harvest, meditation is just an auxiliary way, as long as you keep the right idea, with the right concepts of the right heart, anytime, anywhere can be meditation. For example, koan, use koan practice to change the concept. Pure view or impure view, pure view to help us away from greed and anger, through wanting to think to change the environment, change the environment to change their own heart, the environment has a great impact on us, the mind and the realm has a relationship with the realm, the realm has changed, the mind changes with the change. There is also a kind of internal observation practice, favoring the power of awareness, cultivating our awareness, obtaining the power of care, and also more emphasis on the observation practice, to complete the establishment of the world, a correct understanding, the use of rational thinking, this kind of practice is more valued in Buddhism, because people have rationality, able to jump out of their own experience, jumping out of their own feelings, if there is no rational thinking, can only always live in their own feelings and their own experience, so the use of rational thinking is more important. Without rational thinking, one can only live in one's own feelings and one's own experience forever. Therefore, one should be open to rational thinking, to see one's own shortcomings, to step out of one's own experience and feelings, to pay attention to one's own self, and to pay attention to more people. The culture of rationality is not the same as the degree of the culture of acceptance. When one accepts the culture of awakening, the culture of wisdom, one opens up to wisdom, to truth, and finds the truth of life. If one does not receive the culture one is set inside a narrow life, unable to jump out of one's own feelings, not clear about who one is? What is life all about? Without receiving the wisdom of the Buddha's teachings, one will have wrong concepts, wrong perceptions, which will lead to bad behavior and become a danger to oneself and to society. The teacher has given us a lot of teachings, so that we do not take a detour, and now have the opportunity to enter the third level of training, we must both rational understanding, always observe, remind themselves, settle in the academy to study, life, society, and continue to explore, in the exploration of the understanding, to help us find the direction.

The eight steps of the three kinds of meditation is to correct the concept, adjust the mind, use the correct concept to repeat the positive attitude of the mind, to create a noble quality of life. The first to the fourth part of the concept of meditation, through nearly three months of time every day to read books, watch and listen to videos, do auxiliary materials to understand the teachings of the law, to do the sharing of manuscripts. I remember the first half of this month at night in the hotel self-study, next door to a good friend asked me to go to watch the square dance, which I like, then the heart moved a little, but also this mortal mind of my ignorance of the wrong concepts caused, and then politely declined to say that there is no time to go, I want to see the teachings of the law, read the book. It is also the fifth and sixth step of the mind meditation, dealing with the problem, to think about it, the mind is quiet, settled in the hotel self-cultivation. Stabilize the mind to read the book and do the teachings, afraid to share bad, played a draft to read through the feeling of not enough refinement, and then revised and rearranged, do share insights, until the feeling of satisfaction with the implementation of the draft, full of harvest, but also the seventh and eighth step of the quality of life meditation, repeat the correct concepts and mindset. Now learn 10 textbooks, the understanding of the books and teachings, developed a habit, the series just self-study with 2 hours, and now 4 to 5 hours, or even a day time to read the book, the teachings, repeat watching and listening to the video, learning, the time feels not enough, get rid of the wrong concepts, through the observation of the practice and the heart of the practice of abiding in the foundation of the heart, open the wisdom to see the truth, see their own shortcomings, to change, just as the "Path of the Sublime Principle" said The development of the mind around the mortal mind and bodhicitta mind helps me to eliminate wrong concepts and establish correct understanding, and it is also inseparable from the eight-step eighteen-word guideline and sixteen-word know-how (sincerity, seriousness, honesty, understanding, acceptance, and application, improvement in the quality of the concepts and mindset, establishment of right view, recognizing the truth, getting rid of errors, and repeating the right direction). Learning to recognize the practice of observation, I used to like to buy, but now I have not had this thought for a long time, and I have settled down this wrong concept of greed and anger in the past, and I am moving towards awakening. The use of eight steps away from the three kinds of over, with six kinds of thought, with the Dharma to wake up, eight steps of the three kinds of meditation, depending on the effective method, the implementation of the study is the key to self-study **** repair to see the materials, watch the image content, repeated every day to see the observation of listening to the brain when there is a delusion of the mind in turn then observe, observe and then settle down to practice, settled in the practice of the inside is to take turns to practice, each lesson is inherited from the wisdom! content, the effect of cultivation are gained, conversion to the Three Jewels, the concept has been changed, the teachings of the Dharma brought to life to adjust the mentality, the implementation of the seat on the practice, testing and consolidation, but also under the seat of the practice of the practice of the practice to help themselves and their loved ones around them to accept the good knowledge of the Dharma as they wish, to learn the spirit of the Buddha and Bodhisattvas, in accordance with the hearings of the Buddha's practice of Buddhism in accordance with the subsection of the practice of the Dharma, from confusion to awakening, the mentality of the more and more healthy, to get along with people with wisdom. The key lies in the fact that we have to truly implement the eight steps. These are the teachings and sharing of the eight steps of meditation.
