    Experiencing the #diamondsutra a.k.a., the words of the #Buddha is blowing my mind. Every time I listen to it. When I close my eyes, I believe I actually understand and realize the words spoken.
    But when I look at the text, objectively and apply my #logic, I can’t figure it out what he’s talking about .
    I can reflect, as this is the most profound #philosophical description of reality, comparable to contemporary descriptions coming from #quantumphysics, describing #quantumuniverse, and the true structure of #reality .
    I #recommend this #book #audiobook #literature as a principal tool for #spiritual transformation .

    Most modern spirituals must come to this video before the time of the death of the ego. You listen to someone say so many beautiful words and talk about bliss yet they still speak of an eternal self (a self lathered in voice, memories, ego bad and good). I sit quietly and i feel sad for the ones that waste their life not digging just an inch "deeper" and letting go of the final ego personality as its master, the "enlightened" self. Once you cross the river the raft is no longer of benefit, you must drag the raft on land rather than float on water.

    Hi guys a few quick crib notes below:
    3:42 - no form or phenomenon (ego, personality, self, seperate person, universal self)
    4:10 - Be detached(react calmly to highly emotional circumstances) when practicing compassion
    and charity without regard to appearances, without regard to form, sound, smell, taste, touch,
    or any quality of any kind.
    6:08 - All forms are illusive and unreal.
    7:54 - Discard all arbritrary notions of the existence of a personal self, of other people, or a
    universal self. But also discard any notions of the NON EXISTENCE of a personal self, other
    people or universal self.
    8:30 - Discard not only all conceptions of your own selfhood, other selves, or universal self,
    but ALSO discard all notions of the non existence of such concepts.
    9:03 - All of the above statements are like a Raft used to cross a river. Once the river is
    crossed (you realize you are in the state of enlightenment), you don't need to think about any
    of these ideas or concepts anymore.
    9:37 - No indipendently existing object of mind called the highest most fulfilled enlightened
    mind. Because there are no seperate indipendent things. Neither is nor is it not.
    10:34 - Enlightenment is realised through an internally intuitive process.
    (like laughing at a joke)
    12:16 - A true disciple who enters the stream of enlightenment doesn't see himself as a seperate
    person entering any stream. He doesn't even consider the concept at all. He doesn't
    differentiate himself from others and has no regard for name shape sound odour taste touch or
    any quality can truly be called a disciple who's entered the stream.
    12:55 - No passing away or coming into existence. There is no one returning and no one not
    returning. 14:31
    15:18 - A paradise cannot be created nor can it not be uncreated ??
    Develop a mind that is in no way dependent upon sites sounds smells tastes sensory sensations or
    any mental conceptions. Develop a mind that does not rely on anything.
    22:44 - Buddhas discard all arbritary conceptions of form and phenomenon, transcended all
    perceptions, and penetrated the illusion of all forms.
    24:34 - Disciples should leave behind all distinctions of phenomenon, and not allow the mind to
    be evoked by the senses, sound, odors, flavours, sensory touch or any other qualities. Stay
    indipendent of any thought that arises in your mind.
    30:38 - Help lead all beings to the shore of awakening but after they have been liberated, know
    that in truth not a single being has been liberated. Because if a disciple cherishes the idea
    of a self, a person, a living being or a universal self, then that person is not an authentic
    disciple. Why? Because there is NO independently existing object of mind called the highest
    most fulfilled awakened mind.
    **33:15 - A true disciple knows that there is no such thing as a self, a person, a living being
    or universal self. All things are devoid of selfhood or individuality.
    38:40 - When you attain perfect Enlightenment you will feel as if nothing has been acquired.
    You will come to the realization that you were always in that state. It is neither a high state
    or a low state. It's the state that you're in right now yet you don't have the wisdom yet to
    realize that you are already in it and were always in it.
    39:45 - Be ethical and kind knowing there is no distinction between yourself and the selfhood of
    others. Practice kindness and charity without attachment.
    48:53 - Your existence is very much like your existence in a dream. Your dream self is not the
    real you. It is a creation of your mind, much like all the objects and the people in that
    dream.

      All this means to me that...you listen to all but, at the same time you are listening, you are not listening, or are not paying attention to. This is because the mind knows what it needs now and what it will need later on the subconscious level. Therefore it will take what it needs, on the same subconscious level, and discard the rest. This is the same as the Christian belief of everything being predestined. I think this predestination means that if everything has a cause and effect, and this cause and effect are universal laws, then, with so many laws in motion at one time, those things that came before us are the reason these things happening now are happening, and why those things to come will happen because...they must. Christianity, Buddhism, the kybalion...tell use that what we see are the result of what we cannot see because we have closed our eyes to them. We cannot feel these things because we chose to feel instead the pleasures of the flesh.

    • @WisdomOfInsecurity
      @WisdomOfInsecurity 5 лет назад +6

      @@myshadowkungfu no no no no pls, it's not predestined, the mind is not something, the subconscious doesn't discard anything. You still dwell in concepts. Universal laws are a concept, in reality there is no you, there is no mind, there is no subconscious, but yet they are. But which quality do they have? They are a phenomenon themself, the stream of consciousness is not something separate from the whole panorama of experience, but don't take them for real structures of how reality is intrinsically really organized. You mind is organized that way, reality is what there it is and your mind is also what there is.

    A lot of time, if you buy the diamond Sutra a paperback in a bookstore or online, you also get along with the diamond Sutra a second suture called the "Sutra of Hui Neng.". Hui Neng was the sixth patriarch of China. Bodhidarma the 1st. Queen dang was illiterate and very poor taking care of his mother. He was eventually discovered by two monks reciting the diamond Sutra near his house. The two monks knew that he knew the secret of the diamond Sutra or the meaning of the diamond Sutra. The monastery paid for the care of his mother who was sick. He named was welcomed into the monastery. After a while the fifth patriarch of China new that he named was the one who knew and decided to make him the six Patriark of China. It was in the Third Watch of the night when the fifth patriarch gave hui neng thr lineage of the 6th patriarch. Because he was in danger from the other monks, he left at midnight or maybe 3 in the night I don't know and what not seen for a long time I think about 1 year later he was seen teaching and practicing and being the six patriarch in China. I will try to get the suture of weed name on RUclips and post it here if I can. Sorry processor

    -I don't understand it!
    I don't understand, I don't
    understand, I don't understand, I don't understand anything.
    After the third time I listened to this #audiobook ,
    after 30 years, studying this #book, I thought and reflected on it my way!
    I recorded a video for 3 minutes, as I understand the “#Diamond #Sutra “
    Yes!
    I, Andrey
    #Bogoslovsky, I understand the #diamondsutra
    what this monk says, is #real #true, and #absolute #truth .
    As in the words of Buddha
    -“If I/anyone, someone understand one/one paragraph from his book, -“diamond sura”, if I explain this paragraph to one person, yes, one person, one paragraph!
    That means that I'm eternal!
    Immortal !
    that I will no longer be reborn reincarnated

      To share Dharma is to drink water. Why apologize when you can share water with all?

    Chapter 10, What do you think, Subhūti," When I was in a previous life, as Dīpankara Buddha did I receive any definite teaching or did I attain any degree of self-control, whereby I later became a Buddha"? No honorable one, "When you were a disciple of Dipankara Buddha in truth, you received no definite teaching nor did you attain any definite degree of self-control".

    I don't know who chris jonny's is, but for what he has done, he will get a Billion Merits of positive karma and blessings for each Billion of His Lifetimes.
    May he have blessings Unattainable by most Men, And Women.
    May he be born as the Next awakened buddha. And may he bless and enlighten. May he speak, preach and awaken, and may he bring this world this solar system, this small universe, this galaxy, this multiversal universe, among the Countless other universes, and even the Non existence of such universes... May he Bring them ALL to you and us, with a Countless number of Positivity, Light, great Karma and Merits,.. and Love, Gratitude, kindness, and Love, AS ONE. And Together.

    Just a suggestion to Chris Johnys. If the reading of the Sutra can be slower and given longer pauses between chapters, so that listeners can have just a bit more time to ponder in between statements and chapters, it would make the recording ideal. There are also sections of the Sutra where the reading was too rushed or moved on too quickly, giving the impressions that the messages just read weren't by themselves worth pondering and that the listeners should just focus on the new messages that are coming up.

      In the upper right are either 3 dots or a gear wheel. Tap this to get a drop-down list of options. The last option on the drop down list is “playback speed.” I always change it from “normal” to .75 speed.

    16:49: philosophical question about the immensity of merit and compassion
    subhuti: yes, indeed, they would acquire great merit
    me: the number of treasures in those galaxies would be equal to seven times the number of grains of sand in as many ganges rivers as there were grains of sand in one, which would be equal to that number squared

      Diamond sutra is hard and profound, the way to understand the sutra I usually do is to read/ recite the sutra because the sutra has a power merits that change my life and I can understand each sentence of the sutra by remembering it and reciting diligently. Hope this helps you. Om Mani Padme Hum.

    This is text which we were made as children to practice reading Ura village bumthang. I did wonder why this text and no other. The other text happened to be Heart sutra that we were made to learn by heart and this is one of the text recited as curative of illnesses. I begin to learn what these text are a little now with RUclips recordings by different practitioners and students. There is more to learn.....

    This is a great performance of the sutta. The only advice I would have given the performer is to pause more between the call and response. It sounds like it's all one drawn out sentence.
