What is Nirvana? Buddhism and nirvana

You can never reach Nirvana because Nirvana is always there

You can never reach Nirvana because Nirvana is always there.

Full recording here:

The following philosophy you haven’t learned. It is not your level. But if you never learn, you never know if it is your level or not! So give it a try. It is something I have learned many lifetimes, and still I am far away from reaching it in a steady way. But when I was born I was already aware of this.

 

There is no such thing as nirvana. Nirvana means freedom.

 

So you will never reach it, because if you try to reach nirvana, if you try to search, then right away there is no freedom.

 

Like people who can’t see the sun when the clouds come. The sun is always there.

 

Our limitation can’t see the sun, is not the sun’s fault. Even at night the sun is still there.

 

The sun is always there.

 

You can’t reach nirvana because nirvana is always there.

 

The system of life is illusion. Because it is illusion it is empty. But because it is empty, illusion can appear.

 

If there were something real, nothing would change.

 

If nothing changed, nothing would appear.

 

But as everything keeps changing, then it has to be illusion.

 

And everything keeps constantly changing, before it appears, it’s empty. And it surely will disappear, so it’s empty. Between empty and empty, still have to be illusion.

 

Emptiness is Illusion being. Illusion Being is Emptiness. (See Heart Sutra.)

 

[This is the famous phrase from Observing Self-Being Bodhisattva in the Heart Sutra – The core Buddhist philosophy  – link 10 sites.]

 

That is Nirvana itself. Life is always perfect.

 

Nirvana Bodhi Tree - Introduction to Nirvana

 

If blind people cannot see life is perfect, it is not life that is not perfect.

 

I see life perfectly, so perfect love towards every life appears.

 

I understand life is illusion perfectly, so I feel care towards every life.

 

When consciousness is in a dream, life is that dream illusion.

 

When consciousness is in a nightmare, life is that nightmare illusion.

 

Then if you want to have ability to wake up from that nightmare, a wise, awakened consciousness would surely be generous, want to help others out of that nightmare.

 

Wisdom, nobody can give to you. Wake up, is not for somebody to wake up for you. See the sun, does not mean the sun has to appear for you.

 

Ability nobody can give to you.

 

Tai Chi, was never from me to give to you. Tai Chi was always in you. I just woke up what you already have.

 

But it is not only Tai Chi philosophy in every life. Every wisdom is in every life. Every eternal truth already free in every life.

 

But their blind lazy ego not aware of it. That does not mean the sun is not shining.

 

Eternal force of life is illusion being, is unlimited perfect.

 

Unlimited perfect can create unlimited joy pure lands. Unlimited perfect allow to create unlimited suffering, hells, mess worlds like Earth. Unlimited perfect allow every consciousness to create their own karma, dreams, ambitious, greed, all kinds of illusion can appear in the system of life.

 

The same way the sun is always shining, life remains perfect.

 

You’re aware, it’s perfect. You’re not aware, it’s still perfect. You’re not aware of it, you have suffering. You’re aware of it, you are free.

 

Because Dharma (the system of life) is illusion, all the appearing form is constantly changing [First Eternal Dharma Truth], already sets freedom for every life. Nothing we can hold. If you don’t have to try to hold, you are already free.

 

Because the system of life is incredible unlimited perfect, it already set freedom for every life.

 

But every life that is still blind sees it as real. Because of this they try to hold onto it, even though it’s impossible to hold onto it. When they try to hold onto illusion then suffering appears for them.

 

But suffering never truly appears.

 

If it appears then it is truth. If it is truth then you can never get away from it.

 

But you know all the suffering you have experienced eventually disappears. It will disappear again and again, because they are not you.

 

Like a jacket, you can take it off. If it was you, you could never take it off. So none of the suffering was you.

 

But our blindness will continue to create new suffering.

 

But if you are wise you know it is never truly there.

 

Suffering never try to hold on to you.

 

It is you who creates blindness, and then create suffering and then hold onto it.

 

In fact, life is illusion, you can hold nothing and nothing can hold on you. Truly the system of life remains perfect.

 

For awakened consciousness life remains perfect. Nirvana. Free.

 

Because it remains free, Dharma joy appears.
