Chapter 153: Cultivating The Three Bodies
Someone online asked the boy, “Do you know what cultivating the three bodies means? Shall I give you a hint?”
The boy smiled and replied, “Hahaha, whatever you think it is, that’s fine. I won’t argue with you.”
There are too many people like this who are so self-righteous, and the boy doesn’t like to get entangled with them endlessly.
These kinds of people are actually similar to many cultivators in the world, getting stuck on certain textual representations.
They open their mouths to talk about how amazing and magical cultivating the three bodies is, talking about it in a super fantastical way. If you ask them to find one in the world, they can’t. Then, after bragging, they themselves don’t know how, hahahaha.
Because they don’t understand at all, hahaha. Believing without understanding is superstition, and not believing without understanding is also superstition.
Otherwise, why do people always preach about not being superstitious, not being superstitious?
The three bodies that cultivators cultivate are the Dharma Body, the Reward Body, and the Incarnation Body.
The Dharma Body is the pure Dharma Body, referring to the Buddha Nature that exists in everyone’s heart, it is the naturally complete true heart and true nature. It is the foundation of cultivation, the self-nature, emptiness.
The Reward Body refers to the perfect Reward Body, the body attained by a Buddha through arduous cultivation and the attainment of truth. It is an objective form of existence for a Buddha, often used to teach the Dharma to Bodhisattvas.
The Incarnation Body refers to the billions of Incarnation Bodies, bodies that can manifest in various life forms to enlighten sentient beings. The Incarnation Body means that Buddhas manifest in human form to enlighten sentient beings.
All sentient beings possess these three bodies; they just don’t know it themselves.
Ultimately, it all comes down to cultivating the root, which is the self-nature.
Once the self-nature is cultivated, the three bodies will manifest naturally. It’s just that most ordinary people lack the wisdom eye to see it.
From thousands of miles away, if power is sent into your heart, and you benefit from it, you won’t even realize it. Yet you still ask if others understand how to cultivate the three bodies.
When you receive their Dharma, if you see something interesting, did you laugh? A laugh can dispel a thousand sorrows.
Or has there been a time when you inwardly felt your self-confidence growing? Has there been a time when you felt a window opening in your soul?
No matter what you obtain, it doesn’t matter. After eating someone’s candy, you ask if they’ve seen candy before. This is a bit like giggling and being joyfully foolish, hahaha.
You receive the Dharma but don’t know what the Dharma is. Are you really taking the boy as a story from Journey to the West?
Stop attaching your heart to external things. After hearing so many stories of divine abilities, you feel like you can fly. Those are just symbolic representations; they are called symbolic representations.
You keep crashing into external things! If you don’t bang your head until it bleeds, you won’t know to turn back, right?
Life is like a season for grass and trees.
Do not place your hope in others. If others are lost, your own heart will be deeply imprisoned and left behind.
Therefore, place your hope in yourself, use the Dao to apply Dharma, use Dharma to perform techniques, and use techniques to build vessels. This is the principle of the operation of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
Don’t seek blindly, don’t cultivate blindly. The Buddha is not far away in Spirit Mountain; Spirit Mountain is only in your heart. Whether you understand it depends on your heart, not on external things.
The spiritual roots of people in the world are different. Some are born with the Dharma Eye and Wisdom Eye, able to see patterns in all things and thus attain enlightenment. Some consider themselves learned and knowledgeable but have obscured their aspirations, holding onto their own opinions. The best way to examine yourself is to see if you overthink, see if you have ignorant emotions, see if you are pulled along by the disturbances of the world and run wild. Don’t you know then?
There are two types of Heavenly Eyes: one is the Eye of God, and the other is the imaging system borrowed from the pineal gland, which is located between the eyebrows. It doesn’t require eyes to see; eyes are just organs that receive light sources.
When humans dream, or when they think about certain things and see images, it all originates from the functions of the pineal gland. It is what worldly people often call the third eye, the Heavenly Eye, or clairvoyance.
The Yin-Yang Eye is when the frequency of the eyes receiving external light sources differs from ordinary people, forming different appearances naturally. However, most people who possess the Yin-Yang Eye are born with it; it cannot be acquired later without special circumstances. More often, it is just imagined into existence. If you constantly think about it, your true nature will create this function for you, and you will have it. This often leads to psychological illnesses, such as Alzheimer’s disease, causing hallucinations and auditory hallucinations, which are a type of mental illness.
In cultivation, don’t blindly pursue divine abilities. All divine abilities are inferior to the wisdom you are inherently complete with, and inferior to your Eye of God. Other divine abilities only see phenomena, while the Eye of God sees patterns. It allows one to constantly examine oneself and all surrounding things to perceive their essence.
Pursuing divine abilities will cause you to get lost in the phenomena of those abilities. The more magical divine abilities feel, the harder it is to break free. You think you are amazing, that you can communicate with spirits, that you can do this and that.
Humans are inherently amazing. Those things are all external seeking. What you seek externally is Dharma and technique, not the Dao. That is why you move further and further away from the Dao.
The Dao gives birth to Dharma, commands techniques, and forms vessels.
If you go directly for Dharma and techniques, what meaning does the ignorant Dao have? Are you going astray?
To change your own aura: First, stand tall and straight. Second, put on your favorite clothes and dress up. Third, tidy up your room. These are all simple ways to adjust your own Feng Shui magnetic field.
There’s no need to pursue a blessed land or change destiny by borrowing from others. You yourself are your best Feng Shui.
Did the imperial family first occupy a blessed land or occupy it after becoming king? If you look, you’ll understand. They became king first, then occupied the land, not that occupying the land made them king!
Many who occupied this dragon vein or that pulse, after deviating from virtue and losing heart, were still beaten. Wasn’t Empress Dowager Cixi’s Feng Shui more impressive than ordinary people’s? Wasn’t she still forced to cede land and pay reparations by ordinary soldiers?
Occupying this wind, occupying that water, you big fool, you yourself are the best Feng Shui. It takes strength of your own to strike iron! If you don’t even understand such a simple principle, it’s useless to know about Feng Shui.
Strictly speaking, Feng Shui is also a type of pattern. It’s about using patterns to influence one’s own magnetic field. If your own magnetic field is strong enough to swallow mountains and seas, why borrow? Will what you borrow not be returned, or what?
It’s better to have it yourself than to borrow from anyone!
Being naturally complete is the best Feng Shui. Walking with such a strong aura makes you inherently formidable, looking down upon all heroes in the world, unmatched. Internally, it becomes unbelievably strong self-confidence!
If your energy is not outwardly released, people will not dare to look down on you. When it is outwardly released, it instantly affects the surrounding aura, even without speaking, that energy suppresses people.
For example, have you all seen awkward silences? And have you seen how when a very important person appears, others dare not speak, not even dare to breathe heavily? This is the influence of aura.
A person who appears amiable and always gives a kind impression, exchanging mental energy for aura, manifests it on their face, perhaps with a slight frown, or a hint of anger, and so on.
Or, when you meet some people, you immediately feel good. It’s all the interaction of aura, or rather, magnetic fields.
In this era, people often say to stay away from those with heavy negative energy. After a long time, you will be influenced and change yourself. For example, if someone constantly complains, and you hang out with them often, you will unconsciously start complaining too.
If a person does everything actively and positively, like spring blossoms, and you spend time with them, you will also ascend. This is actually the Dao.
Many people teach sentient beings how to connect upwards. How do they connect? This is how they connect. Play with people who have more energy than you, to improve yourself. Play with people who have negative energy, and you will be pulled down to negativity as well.
This is a kind of invisible interaction force.
