CHAPTER V: A Nation of Peace and Delight
The Buddhism is very modern, not a traditional religion. It truly is the foundation of endless civilization; it does not draw back the Four Species and humanity to the old fashions of antiquity. For this reason, it is all the times venerated lively, and it always has sufficient materials to guide the Four Species in the way to eternity, to the place where humans live together in peace and comfort, love one another as flesh and bone. Only the conception between people and people regarding their own interest makes Buddhism backward.
With numerous affirmative words that hopefully make the faithful Tao practitioners awakened to receive the Dharma sutra words and to carry out the resolution. That is exactly the genuine Dharma practice. They should not practice in tendency after the organization and neglect the practice of resolving their own body-mind; if doing so, how can they attain liberation through knowing, seeing, and solving? —T.

8.8 Only Buddhism can Penetrate the Super Science
Strictly speaking, in this twentieth century, only the Buddha Path can penetrate the Super Science. This is really difficult to be understood and recognized. Why is that? Because science proceeds on existing materials and combines substances to transform into all kinds of forms, developing into all subjects and branches, all of which are being presented to the world and humankind with concrete evidence and justification. As for the Buddha Path, each Tao practitioner attaining the result in their Dharma practice is clearly realizes that the above statement is true: Is that, only the Buddha path can penetrate the Super Science? There is still no evidence to justify yet; therefore, the knowledge of oneself is one thing, while attaining completely and explaining successfully is another matter; the clear explanation and justification with a solution way is one path. In this Super lesson, it is a remarkable story to tell about those who can recognize that the truth, and it is the hardest point when those who could hear that with the purpose of putting it into their practice. —T. V.
If all the scholars, scientists, philosophers as well as the psychologists patiently read and judge it, you will notice the Buddha path of which Reverend Long-Hoa Sangha Chief, Supreme Maitreya Buddha has illustrated and exposed the essential points in the following, and in which you will affirm that in any given period, only the Buddha path can have sufficient virtue and intelligence to penetrate the Super Science, sociology and psychology.
The Buddha has thoroughly known the essence of nature, as the scientists have clearly known the quality and the quantity of matter. The Buddha has profoundly known that all human beings inherently have the essence of nature, they therefore naturally have the knowledge by themselves. Spontaneously, one’s nature is generated in tranquil sympathy. One progresses naturally towards the comprehensive attainment, to the complete accomplishment, one is immediately liberated from the erroneous passion in the birth and death.
In fact, human beings with the universe: human beings are living among humankind, particularly they are even unable to understand themselves, and occasionally in their own individuality they still betray themselves, so how can human beings attain the purpose which they expected to achieve? —T. V.
No matter how intelligent the scholars, the scientists is, they could not discover the essence of nature right in their own body-fate. They are sometimes happy and sometimes sad; sometimes easy and sometimes uneasy; sometimes understanding and sometimes confused. Because being unable to discover right in their own body, science and medicine cannot get insight completely into the movement and maneuver of the universe. The Buddha Path is the foundation of endless civilization, always helping humankind in finding the most practical solution. If relying on the education and study while the character in the body-fate is still altering, remaining controlled, knowledge of reason is still limited, no matter how intelligent one is.
The True Enlightened Meditation Master discovers the movement and maneuver of the essence of nature in His own body-fate until He perfectly comprehends it, He has already assimilated Himself to the universe. He is in the suchness, no longer using the intelligence to think. Spontaneously, His nature is generated to discover the wonderful things in the universe and at the old age, He is able to control the death, departing from a chosen place and reborn in another place according to His wish. As for the Buddha, the Lord is in tranquil sympathy that the universe and the body-mind is one. Therefore, in any given period the Buddha Path is always lively, providing sufficient materials and means to help human beings. Furthermore, staying or entering the Nirvana is up to the Truly Enlightened One.
The Super Being is the One who has thoroughly understood the origin of generating; human beings wrongly run after it hoping to seek for an expected result. Whether the generational civilization is firmly durable or rapidly disintegrated, only human beings must profoundly understand it, so that they can take advantage of it, and that is precisely the essential thing to construct. Human beings must thoroughly know their own character, their circumstance which is right or wrong, self-created or spontaneously existing or naturally occurring; they themselves have sufficient reason and intelligence to resolve all things in a satisfying and noble manner. They also must clearly know the character of everybody and the circumstance of every stratum of human beings. The Buddha has called those who can get that insight: the Knowing-Seeing Buddha. The place of Knowing-Seeing Buddha is the place of seeing and receiving the golden words of the Buddha’s teachings, does not mean the meeting and communicating with the Buddhas. This is the word of Indication Seal, the non-dualistic one. As for those who have newly known and understood or learned only by literature, not realized the above words, they are living in the being known, not really getting the insight through penetrating. —T. V.
All things in this world have originated from the essential nature of intelligence at distinct levels, all the different levels of the scientists. Human beings have carried out the invention then run after it to have it wishfully for their enjoyment. From the developed to the underdeveloped countries, they all are not out of this only path. The Buddha called it the temporary knowledge—It is still erroneous because human beings learn, study, think, and then manufacture the material, transforming the substance into product.
Meanwhile, the True Enlightened Meditation Master has thoroughly understood and perfectly resolved generated thoughts, impregnated habits of natures in His body-fate, thereby knowing the character of every stratum of human beings, living beings. If the scientists know that their discovery and invention will be eternally beneficial or rapidly eliminated to their own body-fate, such a thought is an essential matter. Only Buddhism could realize the super Suchness Intelligence while science made use of the reason to deduce so that science is eliminated in waves, from this generation to another generation without escape, unable to to exceed the Buddha Path.
The One who has attained the Unsurpassable Super True Enlightenment said: “Human masters the universe, I have become a Buddha and you will become a Buddha. These words demonstrate that basing on the materials of the Buddha Path as the orientation of practice, humankind will be guided completely to get the insight into the Super Science. Why?
Because the reasoning and acting of that hearing-seeing-knowing are an electronic system displayed to human beings, as if human beings do not know how to use it, they immediately are commanded by electronics. When human beings penetrate it, it turns to serve human beings eternally. —T. V.
The words of the Buddha are the words of Unsurpassable Super True Enlightenment: Human masters the universe. The Sacred Tao Practitioner, Bodhisattva, intentionally cultivates to master their own body-fate, in order to discover and master the universe, acquiring knowledge and bringing the eternal benefit for human beings and the Four Species. Cultivating as the Buddhas could certainly master the universe and entirely penetrate the Super Science. From the walking, standing, working to the thinking..., all these human daily living activities are guided entirely by the electronics existing in the universe.
Being able to meet the Buddha or Bodhisattva and being instructed by the Lord, a Tao practitioner gradually get insight that the human beings, mountains, rivers, continents, and vegetation are all commanded by the electronic power of the universe. The precise Dharma practice is to re-direct the electronics of the universe until acquiring the fruit of attainment, then being able to maneuver them. The scientists, once knowing how to make use of this matter, will supremely use the electronics of the universe.
Of these facts and structures, you do not profoundly understand the essential nature, the form, and the mind. You are caught in the evolution of your subconscious mind through seeing, thereby discriminating and diverging. Immediately bringing in yourself the transformative substance of consciousness, your seeing is therefore according to your judgement, becoming ‘the scene generates your sentiment’. So you must rely on the scene to live. Running after the form to wish for peace and joy, you could not live happily without the form, while without sentiment, your life will be faded. These two points make you resign to follow the birth and death. That is the most significant thing. —T. V.
All the scientists are subject to the scene generating the sentiment. That means in the progressing scene, there is a delightful or sorrowful circumstance, the electronics of the universe immediately maneuver the body to produce one’s character. On the other hand, a Meditation Master uses the sentiment to generate the scene; that means he is controlling his nature, employing the electronics to neutralize, not allowing the running after progressing scenes. With a stable mind, he maneuvers to resolve it, that means he is using the sentiment to generate the scene. Gradually, he no longer gives birth to Dharma, gaining the clear comprehension. Without birth there will be no more death. Once thoroughly achieving immortality, every word and every deportment, all are super.
In that period, today’s science still did not have its own name or was widely known in the world. The Crown Prince (Siddhartha Gautama) attained the Unsurpassable True Enlightenment through His Dharma practice. He penetrated the Unsurpassable Super Science, thoroughly knowing in detail every movement stratum of the vivid electricity, electronics to the super-super electronics throughout the universe of The Three Thousand Great Thousand Worlds which are actively circulating. —T. V.
2538 years ago, when the world was not yet developed into scientific systems, at that time The Founding Master already thoroughly comprehended the super-super electronics in the Three Thousand Great Thousand Worlds, which were actively circulating.
The super-super electronics is extremely astute, no words can describe its quality of circulation, no destination can be specified as either its departure or return or arrival. As for the Lord, He has penetrated it and thus received it exclusively. For that reason, the term Tathagata Constitution is used. And all places, where the Three Thousand Great Thousand Worlds, dragons, humans and the Four Species are appearing, that term the Dharma Body of Buddha. —T. V.
With the super-super electronics, no destination can be specified either as its departure or return or arrival, that means it exists everywhere, having pre-existed from the non-beginning to the endless. The fact is that science did not discover it until nowadays, it has just been found out.
The Supreme Maitreya Buddha has taught that the Tathagata Constitution is exactly the electronics of the universe. While all the seeds of natures, living beings’ natures in the universe are exactly the Dharma Body of Buddha. Thus, it’s enough to know that since The Founding Master until now, the Supreme Maitreya Buddha, as well as the Buddhas of Ten Directions and Three Generations, have entirely comprehended the Super Science from the ancient time. The discovery of electronics has aimed to know the universe by science, until this twentieth century, it is not worthy in comparison with the Buddhas.
The Buddha Path calls the super electronics the seeds, and the thought is the atom. Atoms are combined into molecule as thoughts are grouped into seeds of natures as explained by the Budha Path.
Today, science has also found out that an atom is formed by protons, electrons, and neutrons, while the Buddha Path has expounded that the generating conditions create the thought. The Buddha path has advanced further to affirm that the generating conditions are exactly all kinds of bacteria in the body that are stirring and creating the thoughts in the body.
The seeing nature in the body unifying with the seeing nature in the universe produces the knowledge according to the degree, the social class, and the country; while science is nowadays finding out the heredity of gene. Actually, the Buddha path has already penetrated the Super Science from ancient time.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva
The Bodhisattva holding the Nectar Jar
How wonderful! The Buddha’s teachings! The super-super Tathagata Constitution! Because of the Tathagata essence, it’s inherently like that, it’s circulating back and forth, forwards and backwards all over. It’s like drops of nectar saving humankind.[106] It is impossible to question or say, “is it a drop of nectar or not?” Its essence is truly the nectar drop. As for the characteristic of super-super Tathagata, it is inherently like that. —T. V.
This Period of Return is coming to an end. The Unsurpassable Super True-Enlightenment Maitreya has pointed out that the super-super electronics are throughout in the Four Species, aiming for us to find the way to use them to become immortality. Should neither discuss, nor comment nor criticize by basing on one’s learning and studying; Should try to develop the meditated wisdom up to the enlightened wisdom, that is the most precious thing.
[106] Here, it means drops of nectar from Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.
As for the world with humankind, the globe is revolving among the Relative Emptiness Precept in the solar system. The Super-Super Being clearly knows that there is every zone all over, that means there are countless worlds outside of the solar zone. Each precept is a zone with its own level of life, reason of life, range of life, and lifestyle. All are living with division into returning life, superior life, inferior life, and generating life. The growth is high or low, depending on the Earth Precept, Fairy Precept, or Divine Precept. All are forming the Three Realms. Whether the lifetime, the longevity is long or short, as well as the existing materials and implements, are all according to the apparition of Divine air, the correspondence of Fairy nobility, the produce of human force, or the suchness of Tranquility-for-Salvation. The Tathagata Constitution is super, adequately supplying and decorating according to each precept without omission. —T. V.
The science of today is discovering only the universe within the solar system, while the Supreme Venerable Maitreya has shown that outside the solar system, there are countless other worlds with their life, level of life, reason of life, which are either superior or inferior according to the nobility or the coarseness, roughness, cruelness of the Four Species. Even in many more generations, the discovery of science will also be limited and could never find out adequately the invisible beings either.
Present human beings living on this Earth Precept can never know where they are coming from, nor can even the Devas, Fairies, or Venerables of the Tranquility-for-Salvation Western Paradise. The Super One of True Enlightenment knows thoroughly, clearly, and profoundly, the Lord therefore absolutely determines the way to liberate from life; that is, the construction of one’s own body-fate to be born in a chosen world, with a chosen nature in accordance with the world one prefers, by which a Tao practitioner cultivates accordingly to accomplish to their own wishes. Just the same as a person wishing to be a gentleman must have a gentle mind and character; great persons or super persons must have sufficiently the criteria of great person or super person to be successful. —T. V.
In fact, during this term of return, there were in Long-Hoa Association many representatives of high dignity, belonging to several worlds such as Devas, Fairies, and Venerables of the Tranquility-for-Salvation Western Paradise, who had cultivated the fixed thoughts and could not recall their previous lifetimes: where they came from to be reborn in this Vietnam. For the learned people, scientists who only know to discover the universe according to their reasons and thoughts, so they are much vague about the rebirth of human beings and the Four Species. Many people do not believe about this; however, Tao practitioners with Meditated Wisdom, Enlightened Wisdom who have followed to cultivate in the path of Buddhas clearly know that in which places they were reborn, what were their names and their personal careers since 2538 years ago until now. These practitioners know well where they came from and where they will go, they therefore know how to live with full meaning.
Buddhism is an advanced basis of forming human beings in reality: cultivating is aimed at awareness and practicing is aimed at achievement, reaching the point where one’s own body-mind can truly understand. One clearly knows where they will go after departing from life and thoroughly perceive the coming fruit of attainment. Therefore, Buddhist practitioners are never afraid of death and not clinging to life either, never admitted to the more or the less, the gain or loss for advancement, but only practice for clear awakeness. —T. V.
To the scientists, who are still using reason to deduce, and the atheistic politicians: Should carefully read the above sutra paragraph to know that Reverend Long-Hoa Sangha Chief Maitreya has affirmed ‘the death of human being is not the conclusion.’ In facts, one will reincarnate to a place with true reward or retribution depending on their previous lives through good or bad actions.
Isn't that the Buddha Path has thoroughly known the instinct, the constitution, the characteristic, and the quality of human beings as well as of the Universe of Three Thousand Worlds —what are they absorbing in life, how are they influenced, and what consequences they will take? Is that different from a great physician or an erudite scientist who has carried out experiments on chemical substances successfully and who has produced devices or drugs, aiming to cure the patient to become healthy without being harmful to humankind? —T. V.
Science and medicine dispense all kinds of drugs and perform operations to save human beings; but though having been cured, they still will be declined by old age. While the Meditation Master in super-super True Enlightenment thoroughly knows the instinct, characteristic, and constitution of human beings as well as of the Devas, Fairies, Deities. So, the Master helps them as a great physician, curing the mind’s disease to be immortal — that is far more superior to the science in millions of miles.
In front of the world, humanity is completely disabled and helpless in the salvation of human beings, in construction of human beings to be free from the sickness of erroneous passion, symptom of insane chaos, intoxication and whirling instability in the life. These are due to the consciousness constitution, giving rise the subconsciousness to search for the wishes of every human being who is still living in unsettlement. Why? The Tathagata is the most peaceful place as a healthy person who is always joyful and happy. When all these people bring themselves the consciousness constitution, the Tathagata become the Tathagata Constitution.
Each human keeps a constitution. Because there are countless and boundless living beings, each of them has to receive a limit of the consciousness constitution, called a living being precept. —T. V.
The scientists, anthropologists have been studying each country, each race with its own habits, customs, and languages. However, they have not found out the source of all races, which have been generated by the spiritual consciousness, that is called the constitution maintained their viewpoint. Resultingly, every precept has its consciousness constitution, leading to the division of precepts, in which humans live accordingly their own precept.
When the living being precepts are formed, each person, each individual, each world is seperated from each other, and together, they mature their consciousness constitution, explore their subconsciousness, and stabilize their consciousness. Therefore, there are the Three Realms dividing into every earth precept as mentioned above.
Each precept has the material world decorated such as houses, castles, skyscraper, cities. There are some worlds formed by the corresponding nobility, such as the Fairy world: Fairy scenery has its natural scenery simultaneously appearing in splendid emeralds, crystals, mother of pearls, rubies, and ambers. Like the Tranquility-for-Salvation Nation, Salvaged Nation, that is fulfilled with unanimous, mindful recitation to accomplish the solemn precious treasures, seven precious gems.
The solemnity of Salvaged Nation is extremely noble. There are countless Bodhisattvas offering, worshipping, and admiring the Buddha in a clear, smooth, and tranquil manner. As for the Great Tranquility Salvaged Nation, it is impossible to describe its immense endless nobleness, extreme elegance that is unthinkable and very hard to express in writing, indeed. —T. V.
When the living being precepts are formed, every territory having its separated world unanimously constructs its own scenery for living. Such as this secular world uses the power of labor to build the houses, castles. The Divine world and the Fairy world—that science must give up, being unable to see and know about— has the precept scenery of comfortable living with full of precious gems.
When living in the Earth precept, on the surface of this globe, all are entirely SPECIFIC SUBSTANCES. Therefore, all the branches of science cannot do anything else, except have to use specific substances, the existing materials to transform them, from a starting-point in the studying process to achieving successful results, that is quite a normal experience and it must be so. Because all the results come from the Earth precept not the Earth metamorphosis, the quality of that source must be like that. Therefore, there are wrong thoughts in the realization. In fact, the realization must be accurate with the quality, the position; when there is harmony there will be unity, when there is no harmony there will never be unity. Likewise, Tao practitioners are in great need of the Enlightenment about Form to return the Suchness Form; they should not seek for a form transforming into another form that is measurelessly erroneous. The scientists should note that the work of physical and transformative substance requires the exact combination of energies and qualities according to the matter to be a proper scientist. Similarly, the mortar and brick will stick together; otherwise, a powder applied to the brick, just pasting on it, but never adhering to it. —T. V.
Specific substances belonging to the Earth Mass are soil. From vegetation with its trunk and leaves, animals to human beings with the bones and flesh, all belong to the specific substance, the soil. Scientists use all substances belonging to the Mass of Earth called soil to carry out the experiment and research. Otherwise, there is nothing other than of the specific substance.
The Earth precept is just the globe with its incalculable specific substances; the fabrication by using this substance to transform into another substance is not separated from the precept of the Earth Mass. For the Earth metamorphosis that signifies the Divine world and Fairy world operating metamorphosis without the need of specific substances. A Meditation Master knows that in the Fairy world or Deity world, all things are provided by metamorphosis, not through the fabrication of specific substances that requires such a long time of discovery like in this human world.
A Tao practitioner with Enlightenment about Form of thousands of Dharmas are very rare. Indeed, these practitioners know how to use thousands of Dharmas properly and brightly, immediately reaching the Suchness Form. The Bodhisattva rank are enlightened about forms whereas the Arahants with full enlightenment are still uncertain about the Enlightenment-about-Form Part.
Meanwhile, science is using this specific substance to fabricate the other specific substance, that means employing a form to transform into another form; it is being limited and still erroneously passionate in the birth and death.
Speaking of the apparition of Divine air, there are eighteen zones in the heavenly world, and they all have the absorption of Divine air. The apparition is in different degrees, but all the Devas are using their talent and intelligence to make things appeared, which is somewhat higher than the Earth precept with the strength of labor for construction. With talent, things in all heavenly worlds are far more delicate than that of the Earth precept a hundred thousand times; Nevertheless, those still depend upon which zone of the heavenly world to be appeared differently. From the clothes, splendid palaces, mansions, streamers, dresses, dragons and phoenixes, everything is established by using the authority as its base, power as its utilization, influence as its reputation and precious gems as its application. Otherwise, it is impossible to use the correspondence, nobility, and elegance of the Fairy for decorating instead. —T. V.
The globe is covered by the atmosphere; all the living things and human beings are living depending on the air. A Truly Enlightened Meditation Master like the Supreme Venerable Maitreya used the Tathagata Constitution’s Eyes, being able to see the Devas, Fairies who live depending on the Divine air, which is pure and clean whereas the air of secular world is full of red dusts and too much dirty.
One time, I heard the Lord say the following: there are more than two hundred nations on our globe. Whereas the eighteen zones of heavenly world, each of them is a thousand times greater than the globe. Human beings in the Earth precept—that is this globe— use the strength of labor for construction. Whereas all the heaven worlds use talent and intelligence, that are using spirit to attain supernatural power for apparition of all the needs such as castles, palaces, clothes, aliments, etc... Therefore, everything is far more delicate than that of the secular world a hundred thousand times.
In all the zones of heavenly world, Divine people always respect the One with high dignity as their leader. The leader is in great authority and relies on it to grant what he wants to Divine people in his heaven world.
Using the influence as its reputation that means using the attainment of high or low supernatural power to gain one’s authoritative position; from then on, wherever this one goes, they are always treated as an honorable one by Divine people in the heavenly world. Using the precious gems as its application signifies: in the heavenly world, precious gems such as mother of pearls, rubies, agates... are materials making the implements, in contrast with secular world where all materials are taken from the earth called the specific substance, for instance, a table, wardrobe, chair..., all are originally made from the tree or metal in earth.
In our human world, money is made of paper or metal, up to gold and silver, which all come from the earth. While everyone in the heavenly world has supernatural power because their Dharma practice has attained at a high level of the Divine rank and they are thus reborn there. Therefore, there is nobody who is either worker or laborer struggling for a living.
According to the wishes, all the food, clothes, and everything else are sufficiently appearing by supernatural power; they only cultivate for the character to be magnanimous, loving the others, pious towards their parents, faithful to their teacher, using no harsh speeches and no crafty acts like the secular peoples. It is impossible to tell all about that. Only those with a considerable degree, who naturally emerge from meditation and reach the place, could thoroughly witness the reality—it is not imagined towards in one place, called the fixed thought in order to reach and see it; this seeing belongs to the heresy.
Till now, the twentieth century nearly comes to an end; the twenty-first century is going to begin. Science is still using the specific substance for discovery, while The World’s Most Venerable and at present Reverend Long-Hoa Sangha Chief Maitreya also taught the same. Those of divine-eyes, divine-ears, but insufficience of the Six Supernatural Powers of Bodhisattvas should not hastily consider it to be imagination speaking.
As for the Fairies, their standard of living and implements are far more superior, noble and delicate. This is impossible to describe sufficiently in writing. Nevertheless, the Bodhisattva emerging from meditation just reaches the place. He is deservedly respected and welcomed by the Fairies who intentionally expected receiving the teaching of Dharma, that is impossible to tell all.
Everything that human beings using for their living is not outside the supply from the earth. Therefore, they could not separate from the Earth Mind. For that reason, many wicked characters are bound to burst out, that must rely upon the cultivation of correcting one’s character and diligent implementation. Otherwise, if cultivating in heavy tendency of form without correction of one’s nature, when departing from life, the coming suffering will be very disastrous. If a truly enlightened Meditation Master hears and reads this part, he will sensibly comprehend without any suspicion as the scientists have. It is because science is based only on the existing material, which is seen by their eye. For a master, of the super-super electronics, he discerns it without secular eyes in need.
As for the nobility-correspondence, the Fairy scenery or the Fairy world is divided into Divine Fairies and Deity Fairies, who are the two precepts having two extreme features of correspondence and nobility with their far separation in each other. The Divine Fairies reign the Fairy scenery with their very superior nobility-correspondence, splendid excellence and beauty; whereas the Deity Fairies possess the Fairy world with their nobility-correspondence that is somewhat less noble and rougher than the Divine Fairies. Nevertheless, all the Fairies take magic power as their fundamental and enjoyment as their apparition of nobility-correspondence. Therefore, their clothes, castles, environments… all are correspondingly manifested by the noble substance. Those of eminent supernatural power accordingly enjoy it and entirely exploit the nobility-correspondence for peace and joy. Besides that, the Fairies are impossible to make use of things in nature or talent intelligence exclusively. Just like the Earth precept that cannot apply only the THOUGHTS to be accomplished. —T. V.
In the Fairy world, there is also a division: the Divine Fairy place with its luxurious, noble, elegant, and beautiful residences and the Deity Fairy place with its scenes and implements that are inferior to that of the Divine Fairy. Only human beings in the secular world are using materials taken from the earth. They also have to make use of their human strength; even the machines can replace human works, it is still created from the human talent and intelligence. Pure thoughts without realization will bring nothing. While in the world of Fairies, Deity Fairies, through sitting, thinking, and entering fixed thoughts, they can get everything according to their wishes without working. Those in the Heavenly world only know about the Heaven world; those in the Fairy world solely know about the Fairy world; those in the Deity Fairy world exclusively know about the Deity Fairy world. In fact, the Devas in Heavenly world are not capable to travel from their world to the Fairy world. It is the same for all other worlds. For instance, human beings on the earth can only travel on this earth; even travelling to the other planets, humans are unable to see other living beings because they are invisible. The Bodhisattvas achieving the fruit of attainment can travel everywhere. The Buddhas have achieved the complete accomplishment, and thus in ten directions, everywhere is perfect, everywhere there is the presence of Buddha, everywhere Buddha can come. Whether the Buddha wants to appear or hide is up to a Tao practitioner with the considerable degree, who is asking for the complete salvation of living beings then.
The Super One of True Enlightenment has thoroughly known the basic nature, its quality and its weight in each living being — how the combinations in oneself are and how their consequences will be. So the Lord has drawn the way to practice in order to absorb and thoroughly comprehend all the Essence of Nature – Characteristics of every single precept, and thus to be clearly awakened. That is called the acquisition of thousands of Dharmas, the clear comprehension about Dharma; otherwise, nothing else than that to be called the clear comprehension about Dharma.
The science coming into the world has experienced and known every material within it what its nature, its quality, and its weight are. When dispensing medication or assembling a machine, a pharmacist or an engineer has meticulously known about its materials, and how to create it according to the design and use, such as: it is a computer, electronics, camera, television, radio, record player, or drugs in the pharmacy with its sufficient characteristics, its adequate quality in a suitable weight combination of ingredients without a tiny mistake.—T. V.
The Super One of True Enlightenment, like the Supreme Venerable Maitreya, has thoroughly known the nature, its quality and its weight in every living being, so the Lord has established the Dharma subject of practice to help them escape from suffering and reach the eternity.
Meanwhile, science coming into the world brings about comforts through every epoch, making human beings live comfortably; medicines helped treat diseases. The two branches of Buddhism and science have evolved in parallelism, but science could not find the eternal way right in human body-fate.
It is the same for the Super One of True Enlightenment. But for the scientists, it is easier in their manufacture because they can combine and create by themselves, relying on their true knowledge in the assembling of all parts of the product through operating machines, which are completely material, strictly obeying and silently executing their commands, and thus very easy to maneuver.
As for the Truly Enlightened One who has truly known, meticulously known, and known more than that: He has known the mistakes, the calamity and the turbulent decadence in the brain and the body-fate of human beings, and where the place of the wrong is, and why they are crying for help. But the Truly Enlightened One, on the contrary, has the right to guide the exploration, while human beings, for their part, must generate their mind to willingly correct themselves until success; besides, He have no right to oblige them—this is really a dilemma, very hard to resolve. For that reason, the Buddha has said: “The Buddha could neither save those with no-condition nor fixed karma.”
The scientists must give up the correction of ‘machine’ in humanity; even our own body-fate also must resign with the erroneous passion in the way of birth and death. In this period, not only the Earth precept has to bear everything, but all the Three Thousand Great Thousand Worlds, Tranquility-for-Salvation Worlds, including Dragons, humans, living beings do as well; all become completely invalid for incalculable lifetimes. Why? Because each precept, each matter, each quality, and each place cannot go beyond its dimension, its limited weight to do something other than what it has done itself, it keeps in doing exactly like that and thus receives the subsequent result. —T. V.
The scientists, erudite people who have manufactured spacecraft to explore the moon as well as the universe, should consider the above sutra paragraph. It has just been written by the Supreme Maitreya Buddha in this twentieth century. The Lord’s images and vestiges that have been left to the secular word are still quite new. Those who believe that death is the end of everything should turn in their own body-fate to practice the correction and meditation with guidance. It is not too late for them; they are still in time to be guided by the Bodhisattva Meditation Master and succeding Patriarchs, to understand that the rebirth of dead human being continuing to live in another place is very true, indeed.
How strange it is! The entire world wrongly believes that Buddhism is in degeneration and reaching the Dharma-Ending Age. The error resides in individuals of each country. But unexpectedly, the Buddhist believers are so numerous, and they are seeking for the extremity. Each of them is so basing on the Buddha’s doctrine that they learn by heart every word of it, and those practitioners are in great number. Nevertheless strangely, it is worth nothing and that is of the most importance in this article.
Why? Because their levels have not thoroughly comprehended the Four Intelligences, how could they conclude the truth of liberation? —T. V.
All the living beings understand according to their wrong individual taste. The Four Intelligences are divided into four different levels of recognition. Therefore, they hardly know each other: The living being intelligence is called the Transforming Intelligence. The Fairy-Deity intelligence is called the Generating Intelligence. The Bodhisattva intelligence is the Existential Intelligence coming from the suchness. The Buddha intelligence is the Comprehensive Intelligence.
The Tathagata Constitution in general includes the Four Intelligences. All living beings have only the Transforming Intelligence. Through learning and studying, the Transforming Intelligence makes the base of knowledge for development of every branch. The Unsurpassable One of Super True Enlightenment, like the Lord, fully knows the Four Intelligences, which are the Tathagata Constitution. Living beings are running after their Transforming Intelligence, being born in insanely illusory thoughts. The Buddha Path considers the Transforming Intelligence to be countless generating conditions of birth and destruction, destruction and birth.
The Transforming Intelligence is the motor of development in the human body. Generally speaking, it is the development source of the whole universe of Three Thousand worlds. It elevates human life to be mature, clever, and lively in all the branches, in the division of numerous branches such as science and technology, in all the careers, including doctors, engineers and learned people … as we could see in this twentieth century. The source of material life in the entire world is not outside the Transforming Intelligence. —T. V.
Due to the statute of the Transforming Intelligence, from the learned people to all human beings, they are joyful sometimes and sorrowful sometimes, happy sometimes and unhappy sometimes, collected sometimes and insanely hot-tempered sometimes. They’re in concord sometimes and in disaccord sometimes that gives rise to suffering. Therefore, Buddhism has taught the living beings to comprehend thoroughly the Tathagata Constitution–Four Intelligences in order to avoid such erroneous passions like that.
For human beings, Divine beings, Fairy metamorphoses in the whole universe of Three Thousand worlds, the Transforming Intelligence is the main point of the Four Species. Therefore, the universe of Three Thousand Worlds must be subjected to living with duality, in opposite states of happiness and unhappiness, gain and loss, possession and nothingness, never being comfortable. Why?
Because the Transforming Intelligence depends on the nature of the individual generating it, even the doctors, engineers, learned people, up to all the other classes, all are not outside the four characteristics, which are difficult matters to solve. The four characteristics are morality, immorality, brutality, and craftiness; so those are difficult to solve. The Buddha Path considers the Transforming Intelligence to be the source of insane tranformation, so it said: everything is illusive expectations and insane chaos. —T. V.
Even the doctors, engineers, learned people could not escape from the statute of the Transforming Intelligence. All have to live in duality, which is alternatively happy and unhappy, gain and loss, possession and nothingness. The Buddha has the Enlightened Intelligence, returning to the Suchness Intelligence that is truly supreme. The Buddha Path considers the statute of the Transforming Intelligence to be the interminable source of insane chaos.
The Super One with profound comprehension speaks about the Four Species, including the humankind and Fairies in the Three Thousand Great Thousand Worlds, even the erudite people, philosophers, or great people of modern times, all remain within the Transforming Intelligence of illusive expectations. Why? That’s because the Generating Intelligence is still tranformed and generated, the existential intelligence is still existent; even with profound comprehension is only a profound comprehension of beings and matters, but they themselves have never profoundly comprehended the super path.
For that reason, when entering the Buddha Path, human beings have first to detach joyfully all things from their body and mind, clearing the Transforming Intelligence out, then respectfully bow, admire, and worship the Buddha with their whole unwavering mind. Should also rely on the Throne of Triple Gem to practice the Dharma according to the morality and doctrine, making it the base of the reform and resolution of karma. —T. V.
The Transforming Intelligence is still generated and destroyed, called the birth-destruction intelligence. The Existential Intelligence of scientists is due to their individual innateness that promptly understands their field. However, it still remains in the statute of being known because there is still thinking, thus falling into the Tranforming Intelligence. Even for those with profound comprehension, that is due to the matter, in which the Transforming Intelligence is generated. For that reason, to escape from the birth and destruction of the Transforming Intelligence, the learned people and scientists must correct and clear their body and mind. That means they must detach joyfully all rebellious things happening to them until resultingly, their intelligence is no longer transformed, and their Enlightened Intelligence is gradually restored toward the Suchness Intelligence. The intelligence of profound comprehension uses the hearing-seeing-knowing that means using the Tathagata Constitution to reform and resolve karma, acquiring the Suchness Intelligence. It’s really wonderful for the One living with the Suchness Intelligence—it’s hard for anyone who could profoundly understand this, despite their level.
Exclusively, the Bodhisattvas cultivating Prajñà Pāramitā profoundly acquire the Suchness Intelligence. Only the Buddhas completely accomplish the Suchness Intelligence, in which the hearing-seeing-knowing is perfectly clear all over.
The must do is ‘Self-Nature, Awareness of Nature,’ resolving the Transforming Intelligence, that greatly requires guidance from a Good-Intelligent-Awakened One. Why? It’s because the basis advance on the liberation way is the Transforming Intelligence becoming the Generating Intelligence, that is a problem given to faithful Tao practitioners to be liberated through just one lifetime instead of a thousand lifetimes without liberation. The most important thing in the path of Buddhist practice is from the Transforming Intelligence toward the Generating Intelligence in conformity with the liberation spirit to be readily liberated. Otherwise, a practitioner will remain in the birth and death cycle even through thousands of lifetimes of practice. —T. V.
Referring to the above sutra paragraph, true Buddhist disciples must understand that, to seek for enlightenment, they must meet the One who has already been liberated to make the salvation for them. Having met Him, if they fully have trust-obedience-respect, they only need one lifetime to achieve it. Many Tao practitioners had met Reverend Long-Hoa Sangha Chief, but they were indifferent without the spirit of seeking for enlightenment, until the Lord departed from life, they were still not enlightened… With their lack of spirit, in thousands of more lifetimes, even they will meet a Truly Enlightened One, it will be just like they did not meet at all. In this Period of Return, many Tao practitioners, who assumed the Transforming Intelligence, the Generating Intelligence, believed themselves to be the Buddha. That is truly the mistake of countless lifetimes.
In the Generating Intelligence that depends upon the Transforming Intelligence of each Tao practitioner so that their attainment is acquired accordingly. Some acquire the No-Birth Dharma of Endurance; others acquire the Samadhi Dharma Subject of Real Form and Formlessness. Others rely on the Equality of Nature and Intelligence so that their Dharma practice way is mainly observing the mountains, rivers, and continents; afterward with the Generating Intelligence, they acquire the Dharma Body.
At that time, after having acquired, a Tao practitioner no longer needs to use wisdom. Why? It is because wisdom is situated in the base of Transforming Intelligence that belongs to generating thoughts, in which the Buddha path calls the fictitious self. There are, in this period, a lot of Tao practitioners who are erroneous in their way of Dharma practice. They are assuming the Transforming Intelligence, falsely seeking for the Transforming Intelligence, and thus very much in passive knowledge, passive practice due to longing from the Generating Intelligence. Furthermore, they are acknowledging education and relying on its degree to understand and know the truth, so how could they thoroughly comprehend the truth? Because of this root condition, they are in the symptom of erroneous emptiness; with the Generating Intelligence, they become arrogant, practicing by following darkness and light dimly. Tao practitioners who have attained the true emptiness are very rare; these practitioners still rely on the Dharma doctrine, neither separating the moral conduct nor staying away from the Tao place, that is called the conducting vow. —T. V.
Those of High Level (Mahayana) also clearly understand the Transforming Intelligence and afterward know the Generating Intelligence. Nevertheless, they are still superficial, not as profound as the Bodhisattva who understands the Transforming Intelligence entirely. The wisdom, learning, and study, all belong to the Transforming Intelligence. The Transforming Intelligence belongs to the generating thoughts. The Transforming Intelligence makes many Tao practitioners wrongly term themselves the Buddha. The One with the Enlightened Intelligence to the Suchness Intelligence fully understand the Transforming Intelligence without mistaking anymore about it. No matter how superior one’s wisdom may be, they could not emerge from its belt of birth and death either.
All the scientists should consult the Transforming Intelligence and try to find out the Suchness Intelligence. Then they will see a new and marvelous horizon right in themselves, and they will have a naturally brilliant manner with nothing being more precious than it. There is no other path — should search for the Buddha’s footprints or Bodhisattva’s footprints to follow it. No matter what religion or non-religion an erudite person belongs to, that still brings about the super intelligence, which is very beneficial for themselves and humankind. By then, they could actually know that there is only the Buddha Path that can thoroughly penetrate the Super Science. Also, they could clearly affirm the wisdom of an erudite person in the secular world and with the Suchness Intelligence of the Truly Enlightened One in the secular world as well—But that does not result from leaving the family and rupturing the love, or from the vegetarian diet, the non-vegetarian diet, or from the monastery and the temple either. Wherever one is, they are always free at their ease, not depending upon any dogmatic subject.
