Awakening for All: Zazen Merit: Awakening

 

The world has many problems, such as discrimination, poverty, starvation, crime, and climate change. Now wars are causing the genocide of hundreds of thousands people, threatening nuclear war and holocaust, making the Doomsday Clock advance to 90 seconds to doom.

 

This is due to karma, especially its triple poisons of desire, divisiveness, and delusion of ego. Self, society, status, species, and symbolism cause sin, the separated sick way/world, bringing us discrimination and devastation, individually, socially, and environmentally.

 

The Buddha said, “The world is on fire: Eyes, ears, etc. are on fire.” He sat zazen, stilled karma, settled in nirvana, saw the Dharma, served and saved the world, awakening from the long night of nescience, no witness of nirvana, providing prognoses for all problems and sufferings.

 

He provided the triple learnings of morality, concentration, and prognosis to solve the problems of the triple poisons. Not relying on sin, but on holiness, the wholly wholesome way/world, all can become awakened to live limitless life, light, liberation, and love in holy harmony and happiness.

Note:

1.Karma is instilled with the triple poisons of desire, divisiveness, and delusion (of ego/mei: I/my). The Buddha said that all living beings are karma-birthed, -heirs, -owners, -machines, and -refuged. He clarified that there is no self-substance with self-sameness (permanent) and self-sovereignty (wishful) entities due to the Dharma (Truth/Law) of all dharmas (phenomena), Dependent Co-origination. We as karma-machines must change to the Dharma-refuged in order to change the world in suffering to that in holiness (wholly wholesome: harmonious, healthy, and happy).

2.The five aggregates (pañca-skhandha:form, feeling, ideation, formation, and consciousness) are to further analyze the common two parts of body and mind to critically investigate the latter (feeling, ideation, formation: volition, etc., consciousness). These are all interdependently originating and ceasing (related and relative, thus not independent and eternal). The Buddha advised that we rely on ourselves and the Dharma, not others. This means that we must rely on ourselves, not others carelessly, but we must see and judge for ourselves whether things are true and just. He also advised that we not to follow other a-Dharma (un-true, un-ethical, un-holy, un-effective, etc.) ways (cf. six other ways in his time: accidentalism, fatalism, skepticism, indeterminism, etc.).

3.Nescience (avijjā/avidyā) means no witness of nirvana (no wind, of karma) and the world in it (cf. Latin video) due to our being karma-machines, like a mouse continuously running on a treadwheel, not stopping to sit still, settle in nirvana, and see the Dharma, serving and saving all.

4.Sitting still (zazen: sitting meditation) makes one calm and clear, as a bowl settling down makes the water inside of it become calm and clear, reflecting the world. Constant cultivation of still sitting leads to calming (samatha/śamatha) and observation (vipassanā/vipaśyanā), nirvana and awakening (bodhi), witnessing the of truth world (Dhamma/Dharma-dhātu), and becoming the truth body (Dhamma/Dharma-kāya).

5.The Twelve-limbed Dependent Co-origination (bhava-cakka/bhava-cakra, becoming wheel) is the most well-known representative application of the Dharma of Dependent Co-origination, though it is misinterpreted due to its linear presentation by oral tradition and the Hindu idea of transmigration (an embryogenetical interpretation called two causalities in three generations). Actually, it is a compound formed from the Dependent Co-origination of consciousness on sense organs and objects, of suffering on craving, and of samsara (total flow: moment-to-moment change, not like transmigration in Hinduism) on appropriation. It illustrates how our life goes with the five aggregates (originally identifying and analyzing so-called “self,” later “world”), resulting in suffering due to the triple poisons.

Please refer to part 3 of “Why Buddhism Now?” for a detailed explanation with the structural system of the “Becoming Wheel” (bhava cakka/cakra):

6.Nirvana means no wind (of karma imbued with the triple poisons of desire, divisiveness, and delusion), where one can for the first time witness the Dharma world and become awakened from the long night of nescience to the Dharma of all dharmas in calm, clear, controlled, and careful conditions, then prognosticate problems and sufferings in the Four Holy Truths and the Eight Holy Ways.

7.A paradigm shift from our artificial, unilateral pyramidal civilization to a natural, cyclical Indra-net life culture for sharing life, heart, and harmony with the five blisses (awakening, freedom, equality, friendship, and peace) is essential to solve the global problematique. Culture is the cultivation of our potential in truth, goodness, beauty, and holiness (cf. sciences, philosophies, arts, and religions).

一切の為の覚醒:坐禅長所:覚醒

 

世界は差別、貧困、餓死、犯罪、気候変動のような多くの問題をかかえている。今や戦争は何十万という人種殲滅を惹起し、核戦争と核ホロコーストの脅威があり、世界終末時計は終末の90秒前まで進められた。

 

これは業、特にエゴの貪瞋痴三毒の為である。自我、社会、地位、種族、象徴は罪、分離病患道/界、を惹起し、個人、社会、環境の差別と壊滅を齎している。

 

ブッダは「世界は燃えている:眼耳などが燃えている」と言った。彼は坐禅をし、業を静め、涅槃に安住し、法を見、世界に奉仕し救済し、涅槃無確証である無明、長夜から目覚めて、一切の問題と苦の為の処方(般若:智慧)を提供した。

 

彼は三毒の問題を解決する為に戒定慧の三学を提供した。罪に依るのではなく、聖、全体健全道/界、に依って一切が聖なる調和と幸福の中に無量寿、無量光、無量解(脱)と無量愛に生きることに覚醒することが出来る。

註:

 

1.業は貪瞋(エゴ/メイ:我/我所の)痴の三毒が植え込まれている。ブッダ(覚者)は一切衆生は業—誕生者、—相続者、—所有者、—機械、—依拠者であると言った。彼は、諸法(現象)の法(真理/倫理)である縁起の故に自己同一(永住)と自己主宰(意欲通り)の実態をもった自己物質は存在しないことを明らかにした。業—機械である私達は、苦しむ世界を聖(全体健全:調和、健康、幸福)なる世界に変える為には、法₋依拠者にならなければならない。

2.(色:色形:身、受:感受、想:思想、行:行動、識:意識:心)の五蘊(集合体)は普通の身心二分法を更に分析し後者(受想行識)を批判的に検討する為のものである。これらは全て相互依存して生起、消滅する(相関相対だから独立でも恒常でもない)。仏陀は自らと法に依り、他に依るなと忠告した。これは、私達が自らに頼り、他に不注意に頼ってはならないと言う事であり、物事を真実で正義であるかを自ら見て判断しなければならないということである。彼は又他の不法(非真実、非倫理、非聖性、非効果など)に従わないよう忠告した(参考:同時代の六師外道:偶然論、運命論、懐疑論、非決定など)。

3.無明(無確証: avijjā/avidyā))は、私達が、鼠が踏み車を踏み続けるように、業機械として止まらず、静坐せず、涅槃に安住せず、法を見ず、一切に奉仕、救済しない為に涅槃(無風、業の)とその中に在る世界を直証(参照:ラテン語video)しないということである。

4.静坐(坐禅:静坐禅定)は、椀が安住するとその中の水が静謐に透明になり世界を映すように、人を静謐に明澄にする。静坐の常時の修行は止(止静)(samatha/śamatha) と観(観法) (vipassanā/vipaśyanā), 涅槃と覚醒 (bodhi), に導き法界 (Dhamma/Dharma-dhātu:真理世界)を直証し,法身 (Dhamma/Dharma-kāya:真実身)になる。誰でも真実にある樹(両者共法:dharmaの語根 dhṝと同様永続を意味し一万年生き延びる樹もある)調和している樹(一切元素と調和し酸素、花、果、建築材など与える)の様に成れる。

5.十二支縁起(bhava-cakka/bhava-cakra生成輪、輪廻輪)は縁起の法の適用例の最もよく知られた代表ですが、口碑による線形の表出(三世両重の因果と呼ばれる胎生学的解釈)の為とヒンズー教の輪廻説により誤解されている。実際には感覚器官と感覚対象にって共縁起する意識、割愛による苦、専有(同定:執着)によるサンサーラ(全流:全体刻々変化の意で、ヒンズー教の輪廻ではない)の複合形です。(元来は所謂「自己」後に世界を同定し分析する為の)五蘊と共に、三毒の故に苦に成る私達の生がどのように展開するかを例示したものである。

6.私達の人工的で一方向の金字塔文明から命・心・和の分かち合いによる五福(覚醒、自由、平等、友情、平和)をもつ自然的で循環的な命帝網文化への枠組転換が地球問題群を解決する為には必須である。文化は私達の真善美聖(参考:諸科学、諸哲学、諸芸術、諸宗教)における潜在能力を修養することである。
