🙏Namo Amituofo🙏
Amituofo! Yesterday morning I was dreaming that I was in a big disaster where all the buildings and houses fall down. And I kept hearing a little girl saying Amituofo Amituofo Amituofo under all the rubble. She sounded real sad to calling Amituofo. So I started looking for her under all the rubble and while I was searching for her I wake up and realize it's was my Amitabha Chanting machine I was hearing in my sleep. I have a Amitabha Chanting machine next to my bed where I sleep. But far as the topic of the video,the Amitabha meditation sutra says: because mind realizes Buddhahood; mind is Buddha; and the Buddha's ocean of universal knowledge comes from mind thought. " Namo Amituofo" 🙏🙏🙏
Where did you get this machine?
Amituofo, dear lotus sister, thank you for a very clear explanation of the nature of mind. Truly wonderful.

A fact i found out today is the brain and the universe are made the same way, the brain is made of 30% neurons and the universe is made of 30% galaxies and the rest is water in the brain and dark matter in the universe, so the mind is everywhere based on this, Namu Amida Butsu 🙏
Our consciousness or our mind is made of force that is why we can't see it with naked eyes.
In your other video "Are there Women & Marriage in The Pure Land" , one who enters into Amitabha Pure Land, ww will look like Amitabha Buddha, except our size will be smaller than Amitabha Buddha.
What if a person is attached to Goddess Green Tara or Goddess Guan Yin, how will we look like if we are qualified to go there. Thank you.
Namo Amitabha 🙏
Guanyin also looks like Amitabha in the Pure Land, just different dress, so you can look like Guanyin and wear the garments you want :) Amituofo 🙏
Thank you so very much for your prompt reply and enlightening me. Amituofuo 🙏
From which country are you that one girl who is talking in the video ?
Can you please make a video on origin of universe from the sutras
That’s a big topic, in the future yes. Amituofo 🙏
@@PureLandBuddhism OK thank you
@@PureLandBuddhism I am asking for it because everyone ask me about this and I was not able to find it .
@@aritra834 the Surangama Sutra also mentioned it, it really stemmed from a thought of ignorance and the current Universe we know of is in fact a grand illusion, but it’s not easy to grasp this for most people. Amituofo 🙏
How is this diffrent from atman/brahman ?
I'm not entirely familiar with the Hindu's theory of Atman, but I read it somewhere it says the Atman, this real Self will transmigrate to a new life or attain release from the bond of existence. If it is Real, then it should be unchanged, why it will transmigrate to a new life or attain release from Samsara? It seems like they are using the term Atman to describe the Real Eternal Self, but still the concept is not the ultimate reality yet - if it can change and take up a new life or be released from Samsara, then it is not REAL yet, what is REAL should be unchanged and eternal. It seems like the Hindu concept of Atman is more like the illusory mind that will go through different forms of existence, but not the Ultimate Real Mind the Buddha is talking about (despite they are claiming Atman being REAL and Eternal and unchanged). But in some Mahayana texts, the Buddha also mentioned Atman (see Mahaparinirvana Sutra - the Buddha said there is no harm to use Atman, but provided we need to understand what it really means), the Buddha's Atman is a bit different from the Hindu concept, the Atman is also the non-self and the true nature of the Mind, which is unchanged and no need to take on new forms after this life (because it is formless and pervasive but can give rise to all forms) or be released from anything, as it is Unchanged, always perfect and untainted, no birth and no death, always here (and everywhere). Amituofo.
It is not so. Atman is the Buddha nature. Brahman is the Dharmakaya, the eternal self nature.
@@Biholq Dharmakaya is identical with Atman. It is also characterized by emptiness. But emptiness is also empty, like all things, and so the discriminating mind cannot comprehend this absolute nature of things. Form is emptiness and emptiness is form. They are not different.
To explain a different way, Buddhists are not trying to merge Atman with the Dharmakaya. We cannot realize their sameness because of afflictions that cloud the mind, which is inherently pure. Like a piece of gold encased in filth, so does the Atman/Dharmakaya/Buddha always abide within. The alaya consciousness is the tathatagarbha. Tathagatagarbha is still a provisional term that denotes the "potential" to realize the True Self/Buddhahood. The idea of merging self (atman) with another (brahman) comes from misidentifying what Atman really is.
Is there nothingness in Buddhism. Like nothing exists.
Buddhism is the middle path between Annihilationism and Eternalism. Annihilationism means the belief that upon the break up of the body consciousness no longer exists. Eternalism is the belief that upon the break up of the body an eternal soul or self will always exist. Buddha Dharma says these are wrong view. While there is no self as in an eternal unchanging soul like Christianity or Islam, upon death our stream of consciousness is reborn according to our karma in one of the six realms. This stream of consciousness is ever changing and dependently arising. Samsara is endless with no beginning and no end. All things are impermanent and transitory.
