The realm of emptiness

What is emptiness? You know that one of the Buddhist views on the nature of the world is emptiness. Now we not only need to learn Buddhism, but also transcend time and space. The word "empty" must be understood as a view of the nature of the world, which means that this "empty" is absolute. But there are several types of emptiness, and Hinayana Buddhism and Mahayana Buddhism have different understandings of emptiness. Hinayana Buddhism’s understanding of emptiness is self-emptiness. What is "I am empty"? I am empty. There is no eternal spirit in the world. In other words, "I" is controlled by the spirit. There is no spirit in this world that can ever control me. This is the understanding of emptiness in Hinayana Buddhism. There is also Hinayana Buddhism that talks about emptiness. What is "fruit empty"? In other words, all the results and facts of this person's causal relationship are empty, and there are no eternal polymers of basic elements in the world. Fruity emptiness means that my spirit is actually empty.

The material that controls my spirit is always empty and actually does not exist. For example: water is composed of water molecules and is a polymer. But after the water evaporates, do you think there is still water? Human thinking can exist for one or two seconds, but it can disappear instantly in another one or two seconds, leaving nothing behind. Why is such a good theory in Hinayana Buddhism still not recognized in Mahayana Buddhism? Because it is based on an already existing and existing foundation. Because it says that emptiness is based on emptiness. On the basis that it is empty, it is said to be empty, but in fact it is still there and not empty. Mahayana Buddhism talks about the emptiness of causes. What is "cause of emptiness"? Even the cause of this cause and effect is empty, let alone the effect? That is, there is no such cause. For example: If someone says something bad about you today, don’t even listen to it. Without this reason, you would not be angry or sad, and this result would not be caused. Hinayana Buddhism is that after you listen to it, you will have the effect in your heart, and then eliminate and resolve the cause. Cause emptiness means that there is no cause, that is, there is nothing at all, and it cannot become an effect in your heart. This is called Mahayana Buddhism. Mahayana Buddhism teaches that even the basic elements that make up things are empty. As the Zen saying goes, "There is nothing in the beginning, so where is the dust". Mahayana Buddhism also talks about something called Dharma Emptiness. What is Fa Kong? Everything the eyes see is empty and non-existent. So everything in the world is empty. ?Don’t be attached, don’t hate, don’t be confused. Mahayana Buddhism teaches that the origin of the world is empty, that is, the world is inherently empty and all false. Everything in the natural world is false and illusory. What is true in this world? For example: Today a couple loves each other so much that they hate each other like enemies. Is this false? Therefore, a person must be smart and wise to overcome his own ignorance. Without intelligence, wisdom will never defeat ignorance. Therefore, you feel that everything in this world is false. In fact, this unreal illusion is false.

Everything you have now is temporary, not real, and all false. Once everything you have today is lost, there will be nothing. If a parent passes away. The parents have nothing left. Everything in the world is fake. Don’t think that once you have it, you will have it forever. Everything will change. If you use the objective way of thinking of "moving" to look at things, you won't cry, feel sad, or feel sad. When looking at problems, you must look at them with a "dynamic" standard instead of looking at them in a simple and persistent way. Then you will always live a life full of hope. When a person lives in hope, he feels that the world is infinitely beautiful. When a person sees that nothing in the world can change, he feels that the world is like the end of the world for him. When he thinks of the end, he will feel lost and even think of suicide. Remember: a wise person will never hurt himself, a person who hurts himself is not wise, and a person who can't figure it out will hurt himself.

You must use your own understanding to experience and understand life. Cultivation of the mind is a kind of restraint on oneself. Cultivation of the mind is a kind of improvement of oneself. Cultivation of the mind requires suffering, so it is called bitter cultivation. You must control your various desires and correct your various shortcomings. Only by changing your own shortcomings can you achieve positive results.
