Diamond Sutra Chapter II

Chapter II

THE VENERABLE BUDDHA SAID, "FROM-THE-WORLD-WORSHIPPER, WILL THERE
BE PEOPLE IN THE FUTURE WHO WILL HAVE REAL FAITH IN YOUR
TEACHINGS JUST BECAUSE THEY HEAR ABOUT THEM?"

VENERABLE BUDDHA SAID, "HUNDREDS OF YEARS FROM NOW, PEOPLE WILL
STILL ENJOY MY WORDS, AND SOME WILL ALSO FIND ENLIGHTENMENT. TO
PUT TRUST ONLY IN WORDS SEEMS DIFFICULT AT FIRST, BUT FAITH AND
TRUST ARE GOOD COMPANIONS ON THE WAY TO TRUTH."

"BEFORE ME AND AFTER ME, PEOPLE WILL PLANT THE GOOD SEED, TENS OF
THOUSANDS OF BUDDHAS PROCLAIMED AND CONTINUE TO PROCLAIM THE
TEACHING OF OVERCOMING SUFFERING."

SO WHAT DID THE BUDDHA WANT TO TELL HIS DISCIPLE?

ALL PEOPLE CAN BE OR BECOME BUDDHAS IF THEY WANT TO.

ENLIGHTENMENT IS NOT AN EXCLUSIVE RIGHT RESERVED ONLY FOR THE
HISTORICAL BUDDHA; ON THE CONTRARY, THIS PATH IS OPEN TO EVERY
HUMAN BEING. EVEN BEFORE THE BUDDHA THERE WERE ENLIGHTENED
PEOPLE, AND AFTER HIS PASSING THERE WERE AND ARE OTHERS.

IN ORDER TO REACH THIS DESIRABLE STAGE (A HAPPY LIFE WITHOUT
SUFFERING), HOWEVER, ONE MUST FIRST GIVE IT A CHANCE.

WHAT IF THE HISTORICAL BUDDHA WAS TELLING THE TRUTH, IF THERE
REALLY IS A BUDDHA SLUMBERING IN ALL PEOPLE?

GIVE THE PHILOSOPHY 24 HOURS, TRY TO LIVE A WHOLE DAY ACCORDING
TO THE TEACHINGS.

WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE TO LOSE? NO ONE WILL NOTICE, JUST FOR
YOURSELF!

PUT REAL TRUST IN THE WORDS OF THE SUBLIME FOR 24 HOURS, TRY TO
MAKE YOUR THOUGHTS FREE, NOT TO JUDGE AND NOT TO CLING TO
ANYTHING, JUST ONCE AS A TEST, FOR ONE DAY.
