<h1>What are the "Three Jewels" of the Buddhist family? </h1>
The Three Jewels of Buddhism refer to "Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha", that is, Buddha, Dharma and monks, and practitioners can enter the Buddha's door according to the precepts of the monks, gain insight into the Buddhist path according to the precepts of the Dharma, and continue to progress according to the example of the Buddha. Such three rules can naturally be called the "Three Treasures". The "Three Jewels of Buddhism" are at the heart of Buddhism's teaching and practice.
The Tang Dynasty Buddhist master Liuzu Huineng once gave guidance to the Buddhist disciples, saying that the Buddha treasure is self-consciousness, the magic treasure is self-nature, and the sangha treasure is self-pure, that is, a process of enlightenment.
<h1>Therefore, the Three Jewels of Buddhism also have the sayings of enlightenment, righteousness, and purity. </h1>
According to Master Huineng, entering the Buddha's gate is called "taking refuge in the Buddha's gate." "Refuge" means the same as "return", that is, to return, and "to take refuge in Buddhism" is to return to Buddhism from somewhere.
<h1>In fact, this is just a metaphor for the image, and the "refuge" that Master Huineng talks about refers to the refuge of the state of mind, that is, to achieve what he calls "enlightenment, righteousness, and purity." </h1>
In contrast, people's "confusion, evil, and dyeing" in the earthly world is also a gradual process, that is, they are immersed in some bad habits and cognitions, and then the mind becomes evil, and eventually loses its nature and falls into the sea of suffering and cannot extricate itself.
Therefore, only by clearly recognizing "confusion, evil, and dyeing" can we return to "enlightenment, righteousness, and purity," and then the "monk" obtains the "Dharma" and becomes a "Buddha" through the "Fa." This is the real refuge in Buddhism.
Buddha's treasures, divided into Buddha's body and Buddha's virtue. Among them, the Buddha's body refers to a person who has attained the right results, who has completed all his merits and the six degrees of cultivation, and who can attain sentient beings accordingly, or through sentient beings.
<h1>His three incarnations are the Dharma Body, the Retribution Body, and the Ying Avatar. </h1>
The Dharmakaya refers to the basis for the practitioner's clear insight, which is actually some laws, which are the basis for the practitioner to establish cognition, the essence of Buddhist thought, and will not change at will, and the practitioner can practice accordingly with peace of mind;
To repay the body is to complete a lot of good deeds, to have a lot of good karma, to enjoy the incarnation of The Blessing;
Incarnation is a superb state that allows the practitioner to attain self-sufficiency in all causes and conditions and to see from it where the Dharma is.
It is worth noting that the dharma body is a void spiritual realm that cannot be grasped concretely, but once a practitioner has insight into the Dao, everything will be under control.
<h1>Buddha refers to an expression of omnipotence, fearlessness, and spiritual psychic, which is divided into wisdom, judgment, and kindness. </h1>
Among them, wisdom refers to the perfection of wisdom; broken virtue refers to the elimination of all earthly troubles; and grace refers to the desire to attain the perfection of sentient beings.
The Dharma Treasure, which refers to the teachings of all enlightened Buddhas, is the "beacon" that guides the practitioner forward, and is also divided into three aspects.
First of all, the Dharma is lofty, the nemesis of all earthly troubles, and a weapon for eliminating evil and supporting the Dharma;
The second is the thirty-seven specific methods of practice, namely, contemplating impurity, contemplating suffering, contemplating impermanence of the mind, and so on;
Finally, there are eighty-four thousand Dharmas, and in fact "eighty-four thousand" is an imaginary number, which means that the troubles of the world are fickle, and the practitioner must adapt to it.
This ability requires persistence and patience before enlightenment, and once you form a habit, sooner or later you will become enlightened, and then you can enjoy the detachment of your state of mind.
<h1>According to Buddhism, the sangha is called "the sand gate of truthful practice." </h1>
Shamen is actually a monk who practices monasticism, and "practicing truthfully" means being able to practice according to the Dharma. In other words, monks who can practice according to the Dharma can be called "sangha treasures."
According to the teachings of Hinayana Buddhism, in addition to practicing truthfully, sanghas also need to let go of all dust, abandon all evil thoughts, and always keep good thoughts in their hearts, and be ready to live at any time.
<h1>The sangha can be specifically divided into three levels, namely the righteous monk, the sage monk, and the Futian monk. </h1>
Among them, righteous monks refer to those who have practiced the Dharma in the world, and have already attained a very high level.
They attained the attainment and self-realization of sentient beings according to the circumstances of sentient beings, and eventually cultivated without distinction, without jealousy, without attachment, without luck; virtuous monks are monks who have become enlightened, who belong to the primary Buddhas in Hinayana Buddhism, and in Mahayana Buddhism are bodhisattvas who have completed the "six paramitas" and can already come and go as they please in the attainment of self-realization.
The Futian monk refers to the general monk, and can also be considered a monk who is just getting started. Although these practitioners are not enlightened, they can also shade for life and cultivate Futian widely, so they are called Futian monks.
<h1>In addition, there are also folk rumors that the Three Jewels of Buddhism are "bowls, scriptures, and rosaries". </h1>
Because it is said that these three things were used by Shakyamuni in those years, they have been passed down from generation to generation since Buddhism was introduced to China, and are regarded as relics of the Buddha.
It is true that these three things may be the relics of the Buddhist leaders in our country, but even if they are true, they are only a symbol of authority and orthodoxy, and the "Three Jewels" theory is not accepted by Buddhism itself.
In fact, if the inheritance of a religion depends only on three specific objects, then this religion cannot be passed on for thousands of years, so its spiritual culture is the fundamental and the core value worthy of our study and research.
