Guide to this issue: Bodhisattva seeks the way up and down-seeks the way of Buddhism up and down to all sentient beings. Learning Buddhism is to cultivate a kind of inner strength. This issue launches the tenth "Revelation of Atisha Venerable" in the "Sentimental Life" series, which explores how to do and cultivate according to the "orders". To take refuge in the Three Jewels, as long as confidence is cultivated, as long as there is confidence, naturally we will get close to the Dharma, and the Dharma can take root in our hearts.
Buddha's words: karma and conjugation, fate is obliterated, leave all love and bitterness, leave everything dark. —— "Miscellaneous Ahamam Sutra" Volume 45
Master Xuecheng French: Buddhism is dependent origination, not dominance. The so-called Dependent Origination Law, can it be changed, it is impermanence, it is changeable. Because of impermanence, we can cut off the defilements, and we can cut off the defilements. If it is not the method of dependent origination, if it does not change, then trouble will always be trouble, bodhi will always be bodhi, and ordinary people will always be ordinary people.

's reason is to constantly recombine, that is, the more combination the better, the more combination the quieter, the larger the combination. The place where Buddhism is different from the outside world is the Dependent Origination. What is the law of the outside world? Dominate the law. He thinks who or god can come to dominate all things. This is impossible.
Dharma is dependent origination, not dominance. The so-called Dependent Origination Law, can it be changed? It is impermanent and it is changeable. Because of impermanence, we can cut off the defilements, and we can cut off the defilements. If it is not the method of dependent origination, if it does not change, then trouble will always be trouble, bodhi will always be bodhi, and ordinary people will always be ordinary people.
Because all dharma is impermanent, all without self, all are subject to change. So in the process of such changes, there is regularity, it is not chaotic. How do we change along the good side? Follow the good side, follow the path of enlightenment, follow the path of Bodhi’s order, that’s right, and vice versa.
So these points, we have to understand more and more clearly in our hearts. So sometimes, we don’t know it anymore, we don’t know it anymore. As I just mentioned, the longer we study it, the more confused it will be. That is, the Dharma does not enter the mind, cannot learn the Dharma into karma, and cannot understand the true meaning of the Dharma What is it. (5) (To be continued)
