Diamond Sutra – the mystical presence of this Sutra

09/17/2013
09/17/2013

When one align to the truth of this Sutra, either through reading, reciting, or sharing, celestial beings will offer their protection and blessings, and one is at one with all Buddhas and their disciples.  How can it be so?  It is because all Buddhas and teachings arise from the truth of this Sutra, therefore when we align ourselves with this same truth, we are at one with all Buddhas, and their disciples and celestial beings.  From author’s own experience, even the writing of the name of the Sutra on a white board would radiate the light of truth and power.  Such is the wonder of this Sutra.

尊重正教分第十二

REVERING THE PROPER TEACHING, TWELVE

复次,须菩提!随说是经,乃至四句偈等,当知此处,一切世间、天、人、阿修罗,皆应供养,如佛塔庙,何况有人尽能受持读诵。
“Furthermore, Subhuti, wheresoever this sutra or even one of its four-line stanzas is expounded, you should know that all devas, men and asuras should make their offerings there as if the place was a Buddha stupa or a Buddha temple. How much more so if someone is able to receive, hold (in mind), read and recite the whole sutra!

须菩提!当知是人成就最上第一希有之法,若是经典所在之处,则为有佛,若尊重弟子。
“Subhuti, you should know that such a person will achieve the highest and rarest Dharma. Wheresoever this sutra may be found the Buddha and His respected disciples will be there also.”

    Being aligned with what are expediently called “Buddhas, their disciples and celestial beings” is fine indeed!
