前期提示:
佛的十八不共法

第六,「無不知已捨」。佛對一切法,是盡知盡解,但是,對一切法而無所著住。雖然知一切法,而又要捨一切法;把一切法又都要放下,所以這叫「無不知已捨」。因為把一切法捨了,所以了無一法可得,

第七,是「欲無減」什麼叫欲呢? 這個欲也就是欲望。若說是沒欲望,怎麼「無減」?無減就是不能減少。佛的欲望是什麼呢?佛不像我們這一般人的欲望--貪名、圖利,對財色名食睡來貪求,佛不是這個欲望。佛是什麼呢?佛是生生世世願意度眾生,願意教化眾生,願意接引眾生皆成佛道,這叫欲無減。

第八,「精進無減」。精進不能減少。佛,由一開始修菩薩道,只有精進,沒有後退的時候;只有向前精進,不向後退。不論做什麼事情,必須要做到圓滿了為止,把這個事情做到最好的地方,這精進無退。

第九,是「念無減」。這個念,就是三世一切諸佛所修的這個法,而不間斷。這種念佛、念法、念僧心,時時刻刻都不減少。你光有念,沒有精進,也不可以;你光有精進,要沒有念,也不可以。所以,這個精進也就幫助這個念,這個念也就是幫助這個精進的。

第十,這叫「慧無減」。慧就是智慧,智慧一天比一天增加,不能說今天增加,明天又減少一點,不能的,所以這叫「慧無減」。

第十一,是「解脫無減」。解脫,一天比一天得到多一點的解脫,一天比一天得到多一點自在。

第十二,「解脫知見無減」。你這個人,你單解脫,你還有這個解脫知,和解脫見在這裏邊,這談不到解脫知見。那麼連這個解脫的知見都無減,不會減少的。

第十三,「一切身業隨智慧行」一切身所造的業,都沒有愚癡,沒有無明,這身業清淨。

第十四,「一切口業,隨智慧行。」

第十五,「一切意業隨智慧行」。

第十六,是「過去智慧無障」。

第十七,是「未來智慧無障」。

第十八,「現在智慧無障礙」。

這十八種法,是佛自己都有的,不共這個三乘。在菩薩,聲聞,緣覺,這三乘都不能共這十八種的法。

神通道力。佛,有無量的神通成就這個佛道,也就是成等正覺。「廣度眾生」。這廣度眾生,成就菩提,無上正等正覺,都是藉著提婆達多這個善知識教化的力量,所以才能成佛。 .

From last issue:
The Eighteen Unshared Dharmas of a Buddha

6. Nothing not known and yet everything already cast aside. The Buddha completely knows and understands all dharmas. However, he is not attached to any dharmas. Although he knows all dharmas, he has renounced all dharmas. He has put them all down. Because he has cast aside all dharmas, there are no dharmas whatsoever that he has attained.

7. Zeal that never decreases. “Zeal” refers to hopes and wishes.

8. Vigor that never decreases. His vigor cannot be lessened. From the time he began cultivating the Bodhisattva Way, the Buddha was only vigorous. There was never a time when he retreated. He only advanced vigorously and never regressed. In everything he did, he made sure to do it to perfection. 

9. Mindfulness that never decreases. He is always mindful of the Dharma cultivated by all the Buddhas of the three periods of time. His mindfulness of the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha is uninterrupted and never decreases. If you merely are mindful and are not vigorous, it’s not enough. If you are merely vigorous but are not mindful, that won’t work, either. You must have both, because they aid each other.

10. Wisdom that never decreases. His wisdom grows every day. It doesn’t grow one day and shrink the next!

11. Liberation that never decreases. Day by day, he is more liberated. Day by day he gains more freedom and ease.

12. Knowledge and vision of liberation that never decreases. If one is liberated, but still holds to knowledge and views regarding liberation, that is not true liberation. One must also be liberated from the knowledge and vision regarding liberation.

13. All body karma accords with the practice of wisdom. In all his bodily action he is without stupidity or ignorance. His body karma is pure.

14. All speech karma accords with the practice of wisdom.

15. All mind karma accords with the practice of wisdom.

16. Wisdom which affords unhindered knowledge of the past.

17. Wisdom which affords unhindered knowledge of the future.

18. Wisdom which affords unhindered knowledge of the present.

Only the Buddha has those Eighteen Dharmas. They are not shared with the Three Vehicles: the Bodhisattvas, Condition-enlightened Ones, or Hearers.

The Buddha has the power of the Way of spiritual penetrations. With his unlimited spiritual penetrations, the Buddha accomplished the Buddha Way, that is, the accomplishment of Equal, Proper Enlightenment, and the vast rescue of living beings. This all came about because of my Good Knowing Advisor, Devadatta. Because of the powerful teaching of Devadatta, I have realized Buddhahood!
