English version: Still, he extensively preached impermanence to Indra (King of Gods). Indra rejoiced. The rear hall was as solemn as before, without any trace of ash or smoke. 'A Son Binds the Mother' The Venerable One (Arhat) lost his father at a young age. His mother wanted to remarry, but because she was bound by her son, she could not fulfill her wish. It was like a fan tied with a string, hence the saying 'fan string'. 'The Reward of Horse Barley' The Buddha (Buddha) and his disciples ate horse barley (coarse grains) in Veranja for three months to repay their past karma. Only Gavampati received offerings in heaven. 'Shirisaka Country' Is the name of a large country. 'The Stupa Still Rejects Shells' King Ashoka (King Ashoka) paid homage to the stupas of all the Arhats. Next, he came to the Bhakkula Stupa and recited a verse: 'Even if one practices alone to eliminate ignorance, there is little benefit to the world.' Because he offered twenty cowrie shells, the shells flew out of the stupa and landed at King Ashoka's feet. The ministers were all amazed and astonished. Because Bhakkula was quiet and abstemious throughout his life, his stupa still had such power (and foreign countries use shells, just like we use money here. When someone offered shells in front of the Venerable One's stupa, the shells immediately fell to the ground, showing that the Venerable One did not accept offerings). 'Not Relying on the Armillary Sphere' The armillary sphere is an astronomical instrument. The commentary says: 'Xuan' means beautiful pearl. 'Ji' means mechanism. Using 'xuan' to decorate 'ji' is used to symbolize the rotation of the celestial body. 'Heng' means horizontal wood. It refers to the horizontal flute. Made of jade, it is set horizontally to observe 'ji' and align the movement of the seven celestial bodies. It is like the armillary sphere of today. 'Compared to Snails and Clams' When Anuruddha was listening to the Dharma, he often fell asleep. The Buddha rebuked him, saying: 'Tut, tut, why do you sleep? Like snails and clams, you sleep for a thousand years and do not hear the name of the Buddha.' 'Difficult Brother, Difficult Brother' Chen Shi, the chief of Taiqiu in the Eastern Han Dynasty, had two sons named Chen Yuanfang and Chen Jifang, both of whom were very talented. The sons of the two sons each commented on their father's merits and went to their grandfather to judge who was better. Chen Shi said: 'Yuanfang is difficult to be an elder brother, and Jifang is difficult to be a younger brother.' 'The Ten Auspicious Signs of Manjushri' 1. The room is filled with light. 2. The courtyard is filled with nectar. 3. Seven treasures emerge from the ground. 4. The gods open hidden treasures. 5. A chicken gives birth to a phoenix chick. 6. A pig --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version A dragon gives birth to a piglet. Seven. A mare gives birth to a Qilin (a mythical Chinese creature). Eight. A cow gives birth to a Bai Ze (a mythical Chinese creature). Nine. A granary transforms into golden millet. Ten. An elephant is born with six tusks. Details have five names: One is called 'Respectful'. One is called 'Powerful and Fierce'. One is called 'Subduing'. One is called... One is called... Dragons and snakes are mixed, the ordinary and the holy intermingle. Chan Master Wuzhu paid homage at Mount Wutai and encountered an old man transformed by Manjusri (symbol of wisdom) who asked, 'How is the Buddhadharma maintained in the South?' Wuzhu replied, 'In the Dharma-ending age, monks and nuns rarely uphold the precepts.' Wuzhu asked, 'How is the Buddhadharma maintained here?' The old man replied, 'Dragons and snakes are mixed, the ordinary and the holy intermingle.' Life is in a breath. The Sutra of Forty-Two Chapters says: The Buddha asked a Shramana (monk), 'How long does human life last?' He replied, 'A few days.' The Buddha said, 'You do not yet know.' He then asked, 'How long does human life last?' He replied, 'The duration of a meal.' The Buddha said, 'You do not yet know.' He then asked, 'How long does human life last?' He replied, 'Human life lasts for the duration of a breath.' The Buddha said, 'You know it now.' Ten kinds of provisional and real Pure Lands The Huayan Commentary states: First, the Pure Land of the Amitabha Sutra. Second, the Pure Land of the Contemplation Sutra. These two are provisional and not yet real. Third, the Pure Land of the Vimalakirti Sutra. It is real but not yet broad. Fourth, the Pure Land of the Brahmajala Sutra. It is real but not yet broad. Fifth, the Pure Land of Mahesvara. Sixth, the Pure Land of the Nirvana Sutra. These two are provisional and not yet real. Seventh, the three transformations of the Pure Land in the Lotus Sutra. It is also provisional and not yet real. Eighth, the Pure Land pointed to at the assembly on Vulture Peak. It is real and not provisional. Ninth, the Pure Land of Mind-Only. It is a real Pure Land. Tenth, the Pure Land where Vairocana resides. It is a real Pure Land. The Surangama Sutra deeply scolds The Surangama Sutra's text on breaking the skandha of thought says: 'To point directly to the present is to take it as the Buddha-land, without a separate pure abode or golden appearance.' Losing a sheep due to many paths The Liezi records that a neighbor of Yang Zhu lost a sheep. He led his group and also asked Yang Zhu's servant to pursue it together. Yang Zhu said, 'One sheep, why so many pursuers?' He replied, 'Because there are many branching paths.' Eventually, they returned without finding it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
