Beyond the desire and obsession of the true bara gate in the eyes of the law

 





Beyond the desire and obsession of the true bara gate in the eyes of the law



"A man like this who has left home without causing desire for anything in the world and has forgotten all thirst is the true hope."
"A man who has left home without causing longing for anything in the world and erased all longing is the true hope."
<Watching the Law>



Key terminology solution


▲ Desire / longing / thirst / longing
In Buddhism, it means 'kilesa' or 'tanhā'.
This is the source of suffering, the mind that is obsessed with existence or object or craves it.
▲ leave home and take time
It symbolizes the 出, and it means a life of walking away from secular life and obsession and on the path of practice.
▲ a genuine barrage of questions
It's a Buddhist view that sees a practitioner who has cut off desire and given up, not just as a pedigree or profession, as a true barrage.



The 'bara gate' in this phrase is generally not what we think of as a class, but rather as a class,
It means a sacred being who has achieved enlightenment or inner peace through the teachings of Buddhism
I hope you understand.
It can be seen as a figurative expression that refers to the disciples or practitioners of the Buddha.
Let's take a look at the verses one by one.


"Without causing desire for anything in the world,"
This is a state in which you do not arouse the desire or obsession in your heart with everything in the world, such as money, honor, power, and pleasure. It means that you are free from greed or the desire to own. It is in line with Buddhist teachings that the source of all suffering is desire and obsession.

"I'm leaving my house, and I'm struggling"
It may physically mean leaving home, but in a deeper sense, it means 'being free from the worldly frame of life and bondage'. It compares the state of being free from obligations or obsessions that come from family, social roles, and fixed relationships. 'Issue' reminds me of walking freely and leisurely without being tied to one place. It expresses the free state of mind.


"forgotten all thirst" / "forgotten all longing"
"Thirsty" or "Missing" refers to a deep-rooted thirst or attachment, such as unmet longing, unfulfilled desire, obsession with the past, or anxiety about the future. It refers to a state in which all these cravings, attachments, and lingering desires have been completely abandoned and the mind has been emptied.

All of these things put together,
This phrase tells us that a true barrage (or a sacred being who is heading for enlightenment) is a person who is not greedy for anything in the world, lives with a free mind free from secular bonds, and has completely let go of all the desires and attachments deep in his heart.



In the end, this phrase is not an external appearance or status, but a teaching that emphasizes that a person who has completely escaped from his inner desires and obsessions and achieved a free and peaceful state of mind is truly noble and sacred.

The Larger Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra: Revealing the True Nature of Purity and Impurity








 The Larger Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra: Revealing the True Nature of Purity and Impurity


People often prefer things that are clean and try to avoid things that are dirty.
However, the Buddhist scripture The Larger Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra teaches that this distinction arises from mental attachment, not from the things themselves.



 Key Message from the Larger Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra

“The nature of things is neither pure nor impure.
It is our attachment that makes us approach what we see as clean and avoid what we see as dirty.”

This profound teaching reveals that what we perceive as good or bad, clean or unclean, is not inherent in objects but is a reflection of our own judgments and mental labels.



  All Beings Are Pure by Nature

In Buddhism, our original mind is called “pure mind” (清淨心, śuddhacitta).
This mind is free from dualities such as good or bad, clean or dirty.
But the moment we start labeling the world—“This is good,” “That is bad”—discrimination and attachment arise.


  Letting Go of Mental Biases

The notions of "purity" and "impurity" are expedient means (upāya)—tools to guide us, not absolute truths.
When we cling to them, suffering begins.

The Larger Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra gently reminds us:

“See things as they truly are. When your mind is pure, the world appears pure.”


 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

 Q: What is the Larger Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra?
 A: It is one of the major Mahāyāna Buddhist scriptures that belong to the Prajñāpāramitā (Perfection of Wisdom) collection. It emphasizes the wisdom of seeing beyond surface appearances to grasp the true nature of reality.


 Q: How can I apply this teaching in daily life?
 A: Practice observing without judgment. Instead of labeling things as good or bad, try to accept them as they are. This is the beginning of true mental clarity.


 All Distinctions Begin in the Mind

The ideas of “dirty” and “clean” do not exist outside of us. They are mental constructs shaped by our preferences and attachments.
The Larger Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra encourages us to let go of our biases and see the world as it truly is—with compassion and wisdom.

Slack is death, diligence is enlightenment




 Slack is death, diligence is enlightenment



Learn the value of diligence and the dangers of laziness through the teachings of 'Jeongjin' in the Buddhist scriptures. Here are some Buddhist quotes that help you develop yourself and study your mind.


Why should we try?

Modern people frequently forget the value of 'effort' in rapid change. However, the Buddhist scriptures that have been handed down since 2,500 years ago still show the truth of life.


The meaning of Jeongjin in law-garden
"Trying hard is a level of enlightenment.
Being lazy and lazy is the way to die.
Those who work diligently are eternal,
A lazy and lazy man is like a dead man."
Enter Source
This word goes beyond simple diligence and explains the core attitude for mental growth and liberation.
In Buddhism, 'Jeongjin' is the most basic and important posture of a practitioner.


Why is laziness 'death'?
In Buddhism, even though the body is alive, if the mind is not awake, it is like death.
A lazy and lazy life constantly deceives you, makes you wander in greed and anguish.
In other words, laziness means spiritual death.



Why is a diligent man eternal?
Those who constantly devote themselves become closer to the truth by grinding themselves.
They have a good influence not only on themselves but also on others, and their spirit can be transmitted forever beyond time.
In addition, this attitude of life is connected not only with Buddhism, but also with modern philosophy of self-development and success.


3 Practice Tips for Living a Diligent Life

• Practicing even a small goal every day
Set a small habit and practice it, such as reading for 10 minutes every day and meditation for 5 minutes.
• Having a habit of 'stop' when laziness comes up
When you realize your laziness on your own, it is important to stop for a moment and look back on your mind.
• Use positive self-indulgence
Reflect on the sentence "I'm growing a little bit today" every day.

Today, let's live with Jeong Jin's heart
Beopgyeong is not just a religious scripture, but a word of wisdom and a self-development book that suggests the essential direction of life.
Life away from laziness and near diligence,
That's the way we're one step closer to Nirvana.
