Question & Answer session,
Question 1: Just now you said how many of you reach enlightenment. To me, even if I reach enlightenment I also don't know. Because I don't know what is enlightenment?
Some notable quotes:
Enlightenment is not special. That means.
Just let go. Just Now.
开悟不是很特别。它的意思是当下放下。
We call that don't know. Don't know means not attach to thinking.
我们称他为不知。不知是不执著你的思维。
Actually, the simplest thing in the world is getting enlightenment.
事实上，世界最容易的事情，是证得开悟。
You just think it is complicated, so you never get it.
你认为它很复杂，你就没有获得。
That is why the Buddha said, in the Diamond Sutra, he said, nothing marks a Buddha. Like the Buddha has no characteristic.
金刚经说，佛没有特别的形象。
Buddha also said that there is no formula for getting enlightenment.
That means enlightenment does not depending on technique. The technique is just pointing to the true self.
佛陀说没有特定的方法可以成佛。
开悟并不是依赖方法，方法只是指向自性。
"When thinking arises in your mind, don't attach to it"
“应无所住，而生其心”
Then the more you do that, the more you believe in what you really are.
如果你常常这样子练习的话，你对自己本有的自性会更有信心。
Don't worry of getting enlightenment or not getting enlightenment. Most important is: Wake up! Just Now.
不要担心有没有开悟，只要当下觉醒！
Summarize and crystallize the whole Diamond Sutra - it's just 1 word - Non-Attachment!
For it is written : "Non-Attachment is the foundation of Self Realization or Enlightenment".
That which "doesn't know", knows when one possesses a "Non-abiding" Mind!
when you see a dog chasing its own tail in order to catch it, not knowing that it's already his you will realize your enlightenment. When you see your right hand little finger being disillusioned with life, taking a great journey across the body to the left hand to ask a great and wise left hand little finger how he can be One with Everything, and the great and wise left hand little finger says "my friend, you ARE one with everything. You are both the individual, and me, And the entirety of the body. you are all these things and none. me, the individual, the body, and none of these things." When the right hand little finger sits down for a moment and realizes that he is himself, the left hand little finger, all the other fingers, the toes, the body, the bones, the internal organs, and you, and neither. he will be enlightened. and from that, you will be enlightened. When you sit back and realize that you are the 'I AM' beyond words. the awareness that sees and experiences the internal visualizations, dialogue, beliefs and emotions, you will be enlightened.
when you finish this sentence and realize that you have been in the state of non judgment, no ego, and "non mind" for all this time that you've been reading this, you will be enlightened. because right now you are enlightened. you have always been enlightened, we have always been enlightened. Because you realize that seeking enlightenment is like a dog running in circles, trying to catch and own his own tail. not knowing that he already owns it. you're awake :) now be good and see me as yourself and send me a thank you :P
This zen master speaks very clear
that is a creepy statute behind the middle robed dude
1:35 "....what you really are". With all respect there is a contradiction here. If the "goal" (if there is any at the end) is not to disolve the ego but to not attach to it how can we say "you" or "I" ?. "I" involves the ego so therefore what "you" or "I" really are can not be. To EXPERIENCE this is the DIFFICULT part. The thing is not to "add" but sustract everything and the light will appear on its own. Just saying. ;)
Thank you for sharing this video and answer of the Master. God bless you 🙏🏻
☺️🎨🥰👨🎨👍🎼🙏💫
Great words,so it's like don't being attached to your thoughts
大光스님이 누구 ???

5:31
붓다가 깨달음의 공식이 없다(no formula)고 했다 ???
Buddha said 41 times 9次第定(9 step to enlightenment)
Yes, he is a zen master disciple of Seung Sahn sunim.
