Testing 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, 4. Testing. Testing. 1, 2, 3, 4. Testing. When I was caught accidentally last week first, almost in that last week, I was caught in the course of bleaching, in the course of a problem that we knew. And so on the scene, on the scene,

[01:07]

they are eating according to Zen master way. I thought it was very old question. But on the contrary, I was too impressed by their way of eating. Because even the age, even the age changes,

[02:08]

even the age changes, the way of Zen master life doesn't change. Even though the world, the world was in situation of the world. For a peace, this is a very important for human life. To practice that way. Any religion has precepts.

[03:20]

What's more, that precept means to be in the right position. Zen master, Zen master's life, I would say that is very active, active one. In contrast with practice of precept, practice of ceasing to do evil, not to kill, not to kill, not to kill,

[04:41]

not to kill, the angel falls, and his patriarch and monk are taking place at the same place. You know, like two trains. So they, they always move from place to place. After, after the age, after the sixth patriarch, monks, monks meet and met at the same place

[05:44]

under the auspices of Zen master. Always practice, practice Zen buddhism for regular things. Especially, the seventh patriarch had many disciples, about 800 monks under his, under his, under him. So, after he passed, he, he needed, he needed

[06:46]

to establish some rule to control Zen master's life for the, for the life of Zen master. So, the seventh patriarch made the rule of Zen master's life and called to do a team in Japanese. But he said, what we have is a Zen teacher. It's according, it's according to his rules of Zen master's life.

[07:51]

Excuse me. The word, the word, teacher, teacher is in Sanskrit, means, have, has two meanings. One is, the other one, teaching to do evil. And, almost religion, almost religion have the later one, that is,

[08:55]

teaching to do evil. That is, the teacher, it means, teaching to do evil. But according to Hyakujo, Hyakujo's theory, rules of Zen master's life, it is, it is according to, according to, teaching to do evil. By the power, and by the principle of Buddhist, we have, we have, everybody has, everybody has

[09:58]

their own... So, each of us, each of us takes into consideration this. It's only, only coming from the Buddha nature. So, each of us is not, is not

[11:02]

common people, opposite to a Buddha, opposite to a Buddha. So, from this point, our activities, our activities, every of our activities comes from Buddha nature. So, but in order to realize, in order to realize this, our Buddha nature, we have to, we have to do something to realize our Buddha nature. So, Zen principles

[12:06]

tell us, tell us to do something in our daily life. So, in very monastic life, a a teacher invites us to keep in place our attention, to keep our activities. So, Zen principles

[13:14]

tell us, tell us to find, find it, find it in our household, Zen monastic life, such as whenever we are walking on the path, on the pathway, eating, eating a meal, and taking it over with other doing gastro, making a bath, making, making, doing something, our teachers, our teachers monitor

[14:27]

in that way. So, from this point, from this point, Zen principles is not only for teaching, not only not only for teaching, I'm sorry, not only the meaning of for teaching, but proving, proving our proving realization of our Buddha nature. This is Zen

[15:31]

monastic life, Zen thesis, this is Zen thesis. And, so, Zen is proving Zen thesis, Zen thesis we have to, we have to bring it, bring it in in in Zen monastic, monastic life.

[16:40]

I used to say it earlier. But, I should, I think that I should I shouldn't wait, probably I shouldn't wait to find but I can't tell you if you our practice takes, I think, meditate in that way maybe maybe

[18:06]

maybe but 99.2% is not true. And 70.2% is not also true. Our practice should be 100.2% true. I always say step by step step, one step should be hard and let's say that it's what I need. My, our way is not

[19:10]

idealistic at all. Very your practice is idealistic. Your practice with you is wrong. With you is wrong. There is an idealistic world. For practice we will do we are conscious, we will do. We will do step by step to see how you get there. And if you try to

[20:15]

escape from dividing you what is true you will not get there. You will not get there. You will not get there. You will not get there. That is your enlightenment. To enlighten your practice you have to be enlightened. You have to succeed to do something which you are doing. And to succeed is a real achievement. With you we we are safe. We are alert.

[21:15]

Don't try to get away. One more page. Take that page. Show your hand. Take that page. Look. You don't see me? You can't see me. I'm alive. How are you? How are you? Spray the act in the which you are following. And with your

[22:19]

sight with your in the or effort there is enlightenment. When you control your body yourself you control everything. When you control yourself you enter a new state of enlightenment. How are you? You enter a new state of awareness. Here is enlightenment. Here is

[23:21]

enlightenment. Because our activity is not realistic. We think absolutely. People like to do the act naturally with all people. But that is not real. It is not real. You are real. How are you?

[24:22]

How are you? You are not You are So, sometimes it is necessary, it is wonderful, when youth practice. It is beautiful, it is wonderful, when youth practice, when youth practice, when youth practice. And so as we are happy, we can practice, and like it.

[25:26]

You cannot escape, you cannot gain absolute freedom, only when you have the ability to balance yourself, you can practice enlightenment. So we should not expect to have, we should be something. When you get accustomed to this kind of thinking, no evil comes to you, no evil comes to you.

[26:46]

That's all, that's all I'm saying, that's all I'm saying. When he was young, he was very much proud of his understanding of dynamic sleep. If you have some questions about dynamic sleep, I will answer them, before we start. When he was young, he was very much proud of his understanding of dynamic sleep. There are ladies, sadly, who ask you what you have in your life.

[28:44]

If you say, don't you know, I have a concept, yes, I will accept. If you have some questions about dynamic sleep, ask these people. So, I just want to say this. When dynamic sleep arises, the present is cannot be blocked. It is just cannot be blocked. I say this. Now, this thought is what's known to you. Present matter, what's known, or material, is what's known to you. That's my thing. Please give me the answer. Please give me the answer.

[29:53]

Please give me a clue. I'm going to know the answer. Please tell me. And that is how we did escape. If you want to know that, please tell me. For us, there is nothing. Nothing. There, what is present. But we escape. When we are high. That's when, and that is highest thing, when highest time, when highest state is. Black state, black state. One of us. People may say, we are happy, we are present.

[31:01]

We are present, but far. That is not, that's present. That's present. If we are present. That's present. That's present. That's present. That is absolute. Absolute. Absolute. Absolute. When you are high. That is how we black state. That is how we black state.

[32:03]

That's all. If you want to prove it, you need to black state it. And if you want to prove it, when you are high. So this is how we black state. And that's the truth. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. lecture. The Sheen Afternoon Lecture.

[33:04]

The Sheen Afternoon Lecture is a lecture on Shreem Brzee. It's a great honor to present this lecture, that's why you have to say, why we study Shreem Brzee. Shreem Brzee originates, kind of, in its contagious nature, but sometimes it is not. The Shreem Brzee originates, kind of, in its contagious nature, but sometimes it is not.

[35:37]

So, I thought, it is exactly the same as our practice, but we cannot say it is good practice. No one can say it is better or standard to such practice. I have never, I have never thought such a thing before. But after, I found it very difficult, but I started it. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Discussing, understanding, quiet.

[36:47]

Dorenda said, to study Shreem Brzee is to study, to study, to study Shreem Brzee is to study, kind of. To study Shreem Brzee is to study ourselves. To study ourselves is to forget ourselves. If we forget, if we forget ourselves, then we reject.

[37:52]

And the candle will light up, we are doing it. All people are doing it, the candle and the candle. That is what he said, to study Shreem Brzee is to study ourselves. To study ourselves is to forget ourselves. To forget ourselves, you will be identified with the truth, that is self-identity.

[39:00]

But this self-identity is just self-identity, which is absolutely contradictory self-identity. Candle light, contradictory, absolutely contradictory, because it has its representative, it has something which is not candle. But after candle, it is only wax, it is not candle. So, for a candle, two flowers, cotton, with the same color, which absolutely can be identified by candle.

[40:04]

And when you find candle, candle, that's self-identity. When you catch candle, candle becomes self-identity. So, as long as you find candle, this light, because of your candle, because of this light inside of you, love it, that is love. The difference is you are really made of candle, candle. You see, understand, you have to be encouraged by the truth like this.

[41:11]

I don't mean to over-tell you, tell you all right. But, the pain you have on your neck, the whole time you are silent. But I am doing that. That is, we are teachers. We have already, we are teachers. So, on your legs, I don't know. When you have something, you can chant. Are you completing it? But, if you want to try to get rid of pain of this kind,

[42:20]

probably you have to practice, which is the same thing. Pull out the cotton from the box. If you pull out the center, the cotton center from the candle, you are doing it right. You see, there is no desire. It's all progress. It's religious. So, there are no teachers. So, you have to practice. Our practice is based on the traditional understanding of

[44:03]

Akshaya being how everything exists. So, this understanding was taught by him. And later, after later, we developed it. And we actualized it. Yes. Because of this understanding, we could develop our chanting.

[45:12]

Because of our practice, we could preserve this Akshaya teaching for more than two thousand years. Yes. This teaching is based on Akshaya, who is our teacher. So, to stay. That is why Buddhism did not die, and continuous development took place based on Akshaya.

[46:16]

So, development of Buddhist system will be there in your own life, and in your everyday life. There is no difference between historical development of the human and Akshaya development of your life, there is no difference. That is, for us, it is not for us to develop our way.

[47:22]

Before you understand how is Akshaya to be, you may feel that Buddhism is one of the religions, among many religions, but Akshaya, it is not so. Buddhism, there are two classes, religion, name of Buddhism, it is Akshaya way of life. I am not talking, for instance, like different cultures, like different around, you know what I am talking about.

[48:29]

From this point of view, there is no difference between Japanese way of life and your way of life. How Chandra Path in Japan, Chandra Path in Europe, and in America, you can join me on Chandra. Big answer. Thank you. We have enormous, thank you, we have big time, and finally, there is no difference. Therefore, there is nothing new to us.

[49:36]

We are student, but we, but we know. Even though you know something, you don't know, you know something. You have to know. It is true thing. When you know what you know, it doesn't matter. So, day after day, you will know something.

[50:41]

You knew, it doesn't matter. Enlightenment is here. You will find out something, quite new. Do you understand? Find the truth. Let me tell you something. In the water, there is nothing but food. But when you eat it, that's the truth. But before, when you eat food, that food, that food,

[51:46]

you don't know what it is called. So, it's very difficult. You have to know this food. Oh, this is perfect. So, this is enlightenment. It tells truth. It is real truth. It looks like real truth, but it is the truth. Buddha found that more than 300 years ago. And he said, this is the truth. He did that. Long, long before, many people found out. Just people, possibly, just people,

[52:49]

talking, and that's it. Many people waiting for enlightenment. And that's it. Many people who have found it, they find out. Truth. Real truth. Vital truth. That truth, that truth. That truth. Vital truth. Which is truth. And everyone needs to go to this point. You don't have to go to this point. I invite you. Do not follow me.

[53:53]

Go to this point. Go to this point. You have to go to this point. Go to this point. Go to this point. I invite you. If you follow me, I invite you. If you don't follow me, I invite you. If you don't follow me, I invite you. Oh, very nice. I invite you to be my invite. It's very simple. Whatever you are able to do, go ahead. There is nothing happening. But something happens. Vital truth. Then that's enough. So that's enough.

[54:54]

Whatever. That's enough. You are aware of this. Thank you. Just face. Face that question. Face it. And it is necessary to do it. To confront with that question. That's enough. That's enough. I just leave you. That's enough. I leave you. I want you. I promise you. Thank you. First,

[55:58]

when you confront with your practice, your Italian practice, you obtain a kind new place, a new point. That's there. You obtain a point of awareness. With that, with that,

[57:03]

you interact with that. You interact with that. You with that. You interact with that. That's You interact with that. You interact with You

[58:05]

interact with that. You interact with You interact with that. You interact with You. So, when you practice, our practice

[59:06]

waits for that. You are already bored. You are angry. If you do enough, if you have enough practice, you will realize that you can understand it. It may surprise you. Understand our practice more and more. If you do

[60:09]

enough, you will realize that you can understand more and more. You will realize that you our practice more and more. You cannot do anything without managing Before you realize our practice more and more, take love
