Re: [Zen] Tao vs Chan, Rid dirty chi, Ultimate Truth

2011-01-12 Thread Jue Miao Jing Ming - 覺妙精明

Honestly Anthony,

I am not familiar with Buddhism, Tantrism, Taoism, or Christianity, 
because I did not read every word in them, nor have I totally 
experienced any of them.  To me these doctrines are just descriptions of 
different paths.  They belong to the library or the shelf.


The only base from which I post is my practice, my witness, and those 
who practice the same way.  Even those who practice the same way does 
not experience exactly the same thing.


It is alright for you to categorize my practice with any label.  I don't 
agree or disagree.  Because...


The reality is, "Chan is taught without words and out side of all 
teachings.  It is a direct to our heart practice."


It is not complex, or unbelievable, or mysterious.  Chan is actually 
very simple.  Just a journey.

That your teacher can influence your karma directly is contrary to 
Buddhism. Karma is your own problem. Your teacher can guide you, but 
you have to take your own action to lessen or compensate for the 
influence of karma. He can manipulate your 'chi' to make you feel 
good. However, the potential influence of your karma still exists, 
though you think it is gone, because of your wonderful feeling. Why 
don't you follow Christianity or Islam, so that when you do something 
wrong, God can absolve you and you don't have any qualms. Wouldn't it 
feel even better?


I came to a preliminary conclusion that your chan school is a mixture 
of Buddhism (except for the doctrine of karma), Taoism and Tantrism. 
You can consider taking in Christianity or Islam to help combat bad 
karma (or its complete denial). If you don't agree, please explain.

Yes DaMiZong is a very powerful practice if you have the right
teacher, because the teacher can carry your karma.  It is
mysterious and wonderful.

I personally do not need to.  Our school do not teach Sexual
Tantrism.  It is too risky.  One of our practitioners got side
tracked and experienced hell and almost died.

I do not recommend such practice.

Hello Anthony,

I really am not familiar with Tibetan Tantrism.  Please share
with the forum.

For whatever its worth, the only thing that I have "heard"
was Tibetan Buddhism, or "Secret Order", or 『密宗』, was
taught by 『龍樹菩薩』,who is Chan Master.  Therefore Chan
is also considered 『大密宗』, or "Grand Secret Order". 
There could be many similarities in the practice.  Our

practice is  called, 『秘密內證法』, or "Secret Inner
Witness Dharma".

Hello TMSO,  (I hope you don't mind me using initials :-) )

Again very important question.  Before I say anything I like
to repeat what my teacher often remind us, "Practice and you
shall witness. We all can."  My words are only for your
reference.

* The Sitting Practice of Chan is mostly Tao.  The Words
  are most Buddhism, because 49 years of teaching gave us
  a lot of terms to use.  The spiritual realms we reach
  however are universal and label-less.
* Stage one, we practice to reach Constant Turning Of
  Dharma Wheels.  In layman's language, that is to cycle
  three energy channels passing all ten chakras, three
  times, within a single breath.  Then our body is pure. 
  This will take about three years for average person, if

  practices on a daily basis. At this stage, our physical
  being transforms into an energy being, we are naturally
  fed with universal energy constantly. (I don't have jet
  lag.  Don't get tired.)
* Ultimate Truth/Final Form/True Form is called by some
  the Ninth Consciousness, or the Realm of Light.  It is
  the Truth, Kindness and Perfection. Some call it the
  nature of the universe, or nature of chan, or the
  nature of all of us. :-)

Our meditation website is htttp://www.chan-meditation.org. 
And if you register and log in at heartchan.org, there are

about 8 or 10 video taught directly by our Lineage Chan
Master, be connected with His chi while listening to his
words.  There is English subtitle. Each is about 45 minutes
long.

Let me know if you need more details.  Thank you for giving
me this opportunity to share.
