(First) Tips and tricks for practicing the giving of distributing and subtracting：
1. The giving of distributing and subtracting is to eat what you don’t like. Because what microbes like is what you don’t like.Don’t use the giving of distributing and subtracting as your own excuse to cultivate greed.
2. The giving of distributing and subtracting is a training of giving pleasure, but not an awakening of wisdom! Of course, when you are doing the giving of distributing and subtracting, you can also train giving pleasure, plucking suffering, joy, giving and subduing the devil to achieve the Unsurpassed Buddha’s path!
(Second) The comprehensive and perfect application of the giving of distributing and subtracting and giving pleasure, plucking suffering, joy, giving
You eat every day, how can we be compatible with giving pleasure, plucking suffering, joy, giving? It is not whether you are hungry or not, not whether you are full, not whether you feel good or bad, these are not relevant to you. That thing is that you are giving alms to them. You are just a tool, through your mouth, to bring in those materials for them to enjoy. Why?
Because I want to practice giving pleasure, they need food and drink, and I want to give them the joy of food and drink; because I want to practice plucking suffering, I want to pluck away their suffering of hunger; I want to practice joy, I am practicing Buddhism, and thus rejoice, and they also enjoy the food and drink, and satisfy the joy of eating and drinking, and also rejoice; I want to practice giving, I am willing to give all my comfort, and also give the food and drink.
Specific operations.
(Dining) When I eat, I give alms to the sentient beings within my own body, and at the same time, then make a vow to relieve their wisdom life with the Dharma in the future.
I am now having my mind of giving pleasure, plucking suffering, joy, giving to offer and nourish 80,000 insect beings in my body with food and drink, and I vow that in the future, and even until the endless future, I will give relief to your wisdom life with the Buddha’s teachings.
May all the merits and virtues I give all the sentient beings in my body today be transferred , so that they and all sentient beings can achieve Bodhi quickly, and attain everlasting,happy,self and pure Dharma body of nothingness, and those who have not yet attained the freedom can attain the freedom, those who have not yet been liberated can attain liberation, and those who have not yet been at peace can attain peace.
I would also like to tell my friends in my body: If you do not repent of your sins, you will feel unlovable and suffer from the tiny body of miscellaneous categories.Look how small your body is.May you all seek repentance with one thought.
May you all take refuge with Jewel Supreme Buddha! Take refuge with Jewel Supreme Buddha!
