Description

We delve into The Diamond Sutra(In English, 2023 Revision).

 

 

Prologue.

 

The Diamond that cuts through illusion is the last sutra of the World-Honored One.

It contains so much valuable wisdom. Staying in Anathapindika’s garden in the Jeta Grove near Sravasti, the Buddha awakens the Great Integrity. He teaches to break free from ignorance and agony to discover the original nature. He urges to cease rational thinking with serene sensibility and wisdom. The entire composed world is like a dream or an illusion, similar to dewdrops or lightning flashes.

 

Author ‘NomadSirius’ Introduction.

 

‘Sirius’ is the brightest star in the night sky. Its name is derived from the Greek word “Seirios,” meaning ‘glowing’ or ‘scorching.’ Imagining Sirius rising just before sunrise, I embark on the classic and humanities-inspired ‘Nomad’ journey. With the aim of introducing the essence of Oriental culture to the West, I am planning to publish a series of 333 eBooks, an English Oriental Humanities Glossary, and an aesthetically pleasing English Fantasy novel.

 

A series of 333 eBooks.

We permeate into the Diamond Sutra in English.

 

Verse 1.

 

如是我聞

What I have heard is like this.

一時佛在舍衛國祇樹給孤獨園

At one time when the Buddha has stayed in Anathapindika’s garden in the Jeta Grove near Sravasti,

與大比丘衆千二百五十人俱

1,250 great monks participate together.

爾時世尊食時

That day, when it is time to collect alms,

着衣持鉢入舍衛大城乞食於其城中

the Buddha puts on his cloak, takes his bowl, and goes into the the great city of Sravasti to seek alms food.

次第乞已還至本處

Getting alms food from his round, he returns to the monastery

飯食訖收衣鉢

to eat his offering and put away his bowl,

洗足已敷座而坐

and then he washes his feet, and arranges his cushion to sit down.

 

(2) 註

My commentary.

 

One line a day, what I read is like this.

Being like this ‘as he is’, you see the Great Integrity.

 

The World Honored One gives instructions to the Venerable Subhuti.

The first Dharma talk is ‘Like this’.

He says, “Find your true self.”

People are full of material desires due to the tilt of the earth’s axis.

Freedom of mind is at stake like a lamp in the wind.

The earthly Ram is the completed earthly Ten to mediate unification by adjusting conflicts.

In the face of excessive desire, the earthly Ten cannot raise his head.

The archaic word for Hooked Cross character is the image of the earthly Ten and represents the difficulty of being like this.

The World Honored One shows the appearance of being like this ‘as he is’.

He only does, just not knowing.

Clean your body and mind in your Cosmic Rhythm.
