LK Asks:

When I usually meditate, should I use the Phoenix Eye Bodhi or the Star Moon Bodhi?

answer:

If there is a phoenix-eyed bodhi, then it is all suitable, it is a little better than the star and moon bodhi, not only suitable for everything, but also can cultivate mighty, such as cultivating Hagara, then phoenix-eyed bodhi. You can practice both Guanyin and Mahagara.

Of course, the Star Moon Bodhi can also be, but it is not as dharma-like as the Phoenix Eye Bodhi. For example, like the vajra pestle, there are five cobalts and nine cobalts, and nine cobalts also mean this, when you cultivate the mighty Buddha-figures, nine cobalts are appropriate, but five cobalts are not unusable. Nine cobalt can be used to cultivate the charity law, which can be used universally, but if you want to cultivate the mighty law, this has a little requirement, it is best that you have nine cobalt.

Therefore, for those who practice the Mighty Dharma, it is best that you have a phoenix-eyed bodhisattva, not that other Buddha beads cannot be used, and that the Cultivation of the Mighty Dharma sometimes uses human head bone prayer beads, so tantra is sometimes difficult to understand. These are all made by people, and I am willing to make offerings to my head, and when I die, I will make this a prayer bead, a cup of nectar, a drum. Of course, not all of them have to ask for human bones, but they all have to be taken from people's wishes, but you have to cultivate the supreme tantra, and these magic tools, plus the original willingness of the provider, are very special.

But if you didn't have enough heart, when I asked the lama of the Lama Temple to find this, he was very panicked, and he said, "You are in the family, can you use this thing?" I'll find it for you, you put it at home to see, you see what is not auspicious, do not do any nightmares, if there is, the person who made the wish is very unhappy, think that your level is not enough, he is not willing to cooperate with you, this is not auspicious. "So there are all kinds of specialities, and the mighty law is the most corresponding to this rosary, but it is difficult to find, and we don't have to..." And you take it out, people don't understand it, and sometimes they have to say a slander, so you might as well take the bodhi seeds. So now we conclude by taking the bodhichitta seeds. There are various kinds of rosaries.
