Yin Fu Jing
Four hundred words smash through the deepest secrets of Buddhism
China has a
The full text adds up to less than 500 words
Shorter than the Heart Sutra
But just these 400 words
For thousands of years, soldiers have taken it to war
Let the Taoists take it to cultivate immortals
Let the politicians run the country
Same text
Three people read out three completely different things.
The phenomenon itself is extremely abnormal
A scripture can be held as a treasure by three very different people at the same time
It doesn't touch a skill in a certain field.
It's some kind of lower-level operating rule.
Hello
Hello.
I am Wang Lijie
Today we do something that has never been done before
Using the Framework of Buddhist Consciousness-Only
To decode Taoism's shortest and most mysterious classics
Yin Fu Jing
You will find
Taoism and Buddhism
With no communication at all
Touched the outline of the same thing from both directions
Let's talk about the origin of this sutra first
Yin Talisman Sutra full name Huang Di Yin Talisman Sutra
Endorsed by the Yellow Emperor
But the academic research
It was probably written in the Southern and Northern Dynasties
It was written by a hermit who had experienced troubled times
In the Tang Dynasty
A man named Li Quan got a broken silk scroll in Songshan
The above is copied from this scripture
He copied and read.
When you copy about 300 words
The silk has crumbled to ashes
He only had a fragment left in his hand
But this is the fragment
It shook the entire Tang Dynasty ideological world
Now we can see the full version
About 400 words
Divided into three articles
The first part talks about the law of the operation of the Tao of Heaven
The middle part talks about how to conform to the way of heaven and govern the world
The next article talks about the specific operation method
OK
Let's look at this name first
Yin symbol
Yin means hidden.
The symbol is to conform, fit
Put it together.
Yin talisman is secretly conforming to the Tao of Heaven
Attention
Not understanding the way of heaven
Is a coincidence
It's a very precise word.
It doesn't ask you to use your brain to analyze the way of heaven
But let your behavior
Silently match the rhythm of the Tao of Heaven
This is similar to what Buddhism says
dependency
consciousness-only theory
Everything is born by karma and harmony
They operate according to their dependent origin structure
You don't have to invent the rules.
What you need to do is watch as it is.
See how it works
Then follow it
Yin talisman of Yin Fu Jing
And the knowledge-only one depends on him
Point to the same thing
Don't add
Don't interfere
Don't use the labels in your head to overshadow the actual operation
The first sentence of the opening sentence of the Yin Talisman Sutra
Directly gives all the conclusions
Twelve words
Way of viewing the sky
Journey to Heaven
It's over
Observe how Heaven works
Then act according to the way of Heaven
It's over.
That's it.
That's all there is to it.
A sutra
The core is covered in the first twelve words
The remaining 300 words
It's all about the development and application of these twelve words
Does this look like a zip code?
Twelve words are the file header
The following content is the decompressed file.
OK
Then let's decompress
The most explosive concept in the Yin Talisman Sutra
Five Thieves
The original text says
There are five thieves
Chang
The Five Thieves Care
Apply to Heaven
There are five thieves hidden in Tiandao
Who can see these five thieves?
Whoever prospers
These five thieves are hiding in your heart
But their power acts between the whole world
The commentators of the past dynasties have various interpretations of the five thieves
The most mainstream theory is the five elements
Golden wood water fire soil
The five elements cooperate with each other
It drives everything in the dark
You can't see them working.
But your body, your destiny, your environment
All being led by them
So it's called a thief
It's not because they're bad.
It's because they operate in the dark.
You can't see it.
They led him by the nose.
But I'm going to give you a whole new perspective today.
Looking at the Five Thieves with Consciousness-Only
Consciousness-Only divides human consciousness into eight levels
The five superficial ones
Called the first five senses
Corresponding to the eyes, ears, nose and tongue
It's what you see, hear, smell, taste and touch.
These five knowns
Doing one thing at a time.
Receive signals from the outside world
And then encode that into your experience.
You see red.
Hear thunder
Smell the flowers
Taste bitter
Feel pain
These are the top five senses at work.
But there's a huge catch.
The top five are for you.
Not the world itself
It's a projection of the world in your perceptual system
Like an icon on your phone screen
Not the program itself
It's just an interface.
You think you are looking at the world
You're really just looking at your own perceptual interface.
This is the thief
Why is it called a thief?
Because it steals your most precious thing
The ability to see things as they are.
Your five senses do one thing every day
The real world that depends on him
Secretly replaced with the illusion world held by the whole plan
You see a flower
You say it's beautiful
Beauty is not a flower's attribute
It is the label attached to your seventh sense.
You hear a word
You say it hurts
It's too hurtful, and it's not the attribute of that sentence.
It is the secondary processing done by your mind
There is nothing wrong with the senses themselves
But you don't know what your senses are doing for you.
This is called being stolen by a thief and counting the money for the thief
The most everyday example
You walk into an office.
Colleague didn't say hello to you
Your eye is just picking up a signal.
The colleague is not talking to you.
It's that simple piece of data.
But your sixth sense immediately starts making up stories
Does he have a problem with me?
The seventh sense immediately labels
Did I offend him somewhere?
And you're anxious all day?
I came home at night still thinking about it
But what about the truth?
Maybe people are just looking down at their phones
Didn't even notice you came in
Your five thieves from a simple visual signal
Stole your entire day's mental energy
This is how the Five Thieves operate
quietly
But the knife sees blood
Yin Talisman Sutra
There are five thieves
Chang
The key is to see the word
Not to eliminate the Five Thieves
Not to suppress the Five Thieves
Yes see
See it.
See what it's doing
You win
This is completely consistent with the path of consciousness-only practice
Consciousness-only learning does not require you to turn off the first five senses
Then you become a vegetable.
It turns you into wisdom.
You are still seeing, listening, smelling, tasting, and touching
But you know these are the codes of knowledge
Not reality itself
Your senses are transformed from thieves to tools.
You see
Taoism used a word
See
Buddhism uses four words
Turn knowledge into wisdom
It's the exact same operation.
OK
Continue to decompress
The second core concept of the Yin Talisman Sutra
Skyfall
Moving star
Geokill
Dragon Snake Landing
Human homicide
Heaven and earth reversed
Heaven and Man
universal base
It's very graphic.
Heaven is calling for change
The stars will shift
The earth wants to initiate change
The dragon will rise from the ground
People need to initiate change
Heaven and earth will be overturned
Heaven and man launch together
The basis for all change is established
Soldiers love to quote this passage
They interpreted the harmony of heaven and man as the right time and place
Find the best time to make a move
But if you look at it in terms of consciousness-only
It's talking about a deeper mechanism.
Consciousness-only has a core concept called seed current
Alaya's consciousness contains an infinite number of seeds
When will these seeds become active?
When does potential become reality?
Here's the answer.
When the conditions are met
God
Is the outer edge
It's external conditions.
person
Is internal
It is the seed of your Alaya consciousness
Heaven and Man
That's when the seed meets the right outer edge
Sent from the latent state
Becomes the reality you are experiencing
universal base
All the changes you experience
It's in this mechanism that these seeds are wired to.
The Yin Talisman sutra is said in eight words
Consciousness-Only uses a whole set of seed theories to develop
But look carefully
The underlying model is the same
There is a hidden potential layer
When the conditions match
Potential becomes reality
You think about your own experience.
Have you ever had a moment like this?
A thought has been buried in your heart for a long time
Maybe it's the entrepreneurial impulse.
It could be feelings for someone
It could be a vague unease.
You almost forgot yourself
And then, one day
A phone call, a piece of news, a chance encounter
Bang!
That seed exploded
It's like everything's changed
But it was always there.
It's just waiting for that outer edge.
Heaven and Man
universal base
These eight words don't describe metaphysics
It's what you go through every day.
Soldiers see timing
Taoists see the unity of heaven and man
What Buddhists see is the current movement of seeds
Three kinds of people standing in front of the same structure
Each described it in their own words
This is why the Yin Talisman Sutra can be used by three people at the same time
Because it is touching the dependent origin structure itself
Here we go.
There is an extremely dangerous passage in the Yin Talisman Sutra
heaven and earth
Thief of All Things
Everything
Theft of Man
person
Thief of All Things
Three thieves are suitable
Sancai Zian
Translate it as
Heaven and earth steal the essence of all things
All things steal the essence of man
Man steals the essence of all things
If these three kinds of theft are balanced
The three of heaven and earth are stable
The structure of this passage is very interesting
It's not a one-way chain.
It was a web.
Heaven and earth, all things, people
They steal from each other.
nourish each other
No one is a pure giver
No one is a pure predator
Every node is getting from other nodes
Also outputting to other nodes
How does Buddhism describe this structure?
There is a reason for this
This has no reason and this has no reason.
This life is born
This perishes, therefore the other perishes
These sixteen words
Is the most classic expression of the law of dependent origin
Every being depends on every other being.
Every change leads to other changes.
Nothing can exist independently
I'm not taking anything for free.
The Yin Talisman Sutra is called the Three Thieves
Buddhism is called dependent emptiness
The language is completely different.
The net drawn is the same one
But
The place where the Yin Talisman Sutra is more ruthless than Buddhism is that
It uses a word
theft
Not giving
Not an exchange
Is a thief
This word has a cold meaning
It's telling you.
Heaven is not Maimai
The relationship between all things
Essentially stealing from each other
Spring makes flowers bloom
Autumn lets the flowers fall
This is not the mercy of heaven and earth
It is heaven and earth that consumes all things according to its own rhythm
You eat a bowl of rice
The rice in that bowl took a season of sunshine and rain to grow
You can finish it in three bites.
This is you stealing everything.
Buddhism offers a softer version of this fact.
dependent origin
But the Yin Talisman tells you unceremoniously
The flip side of origins is stealing.
Behind every karmic harmony
Both have asymmetric flows of energy and information
Every second of your existence
Are consuming resources from other nodes in the system
But the Yin Talisman Sutra didn't stop here either
It's about the three thieves.
It should be appropriate and balanced
Not not stealing
Well done
You can't take something out of the world.
But you can dynamically balance take and give.
Isn't this the middle way of Buddhism?
Not attached to having
I don't cling to emptiness.
Between existence and emptiness
Find the exact location
There is another extremely delicate sentence in the second chapter of the Yin Talisman Sutra
Blind people listen
Good Vision for the Deaf
Blind is blind
Deaf is deaf
Blind people are especially good at listening
Deaf people are very good at seeing.
This sentence is ostensibly talking about a kind of physiological compensation
A sense is turned off.
Other senses are enhanced
But if you read it with consciousness-only
The depth of this sentence is completely different
When you close a consciousness
It no longer distracts us.
Your awareness will become sharper in the remaining channels
This is not compensation.
This is subtraction.
You think awareness is increased by adding information
Wrong.
Awareness is increased by reducing noise
It's the same thing with Zen.
You close your eyes.
Turn off eye input
Your inner awareness becomes clearer instead
You're not adding.
You are doing subtraction
The information you subtracted
It is the five thieves who steal your attention channel
Close a channel
The thief has one less entrance
Therefore, the Yin Talisman Sutra says that the blind listen well
Good Vision for the Deaf
It's not praising the special abilities of disabled people
It's saying
Less is more
Turn off some sensing channels
Instead, I can see the truth more clearly
This is the same as the six senses taught by Buddhism
Is the same operation
And finally.
There is also a dark line running through the whole text
But never explicitly
That's the art of war.
There is a sentence in the original text
Fire is born of wood
Sefabik
Traitor born in the country
Time-sensitive collapse
Practice of knowledge
Called a saint
Ostensibly talking about military
Fire comes out of the wood.
If not controlled in time
inevitable disaster
Evil breeds within the country
At a certain point
It's bound to collapse.
But if you replace the state with your system of consciousness
Replace rape with undetected seeds
What is this saying?
The unseen seeds in your mind
Greed, fear, arrogance, obsession
They're like the tinder in the wood.
You didn't know they were there.
But they've been waiting for the right outer edge
Once the outer edge is reached
It's on fire.
You suddenly lost control of your emotions
I suddenly made a decision that I regret
Suddenly into a relationship that makes you miserable
It's all those seeds in the dark
Practice of knowledge
Called a saint
Know where these seeds are hidden
Then go to practice
This is the saint in the eyes of the Yin Talisman Sutra
Attention
Not destroy the seeds
Is Zhizhi
That word again
See
So the dark line of the art of war of the Yin Talisman
It's not about hitting people.
It's about fighting the dark wars of your mind.
Your worst enemy is not out there
In your alaya consciousness
Those seeds you didn't notice
The enemy army lurking within you
You don't scout for them.
They will attack you when you are most vulnerable
And the way of reconnaissance
Not analysis
It's not thinking.
It's awareness.
Awareness quietly and without preconceptions
This is why many ancient generals liked to read the Yin Talisman Sutra
It's not because there are any techniques for arranging troops in it
But because it teaches a fundamental ability
Clear in the chaos
The battlefield outside and the battlefield inside
They all operate under the same set of rules
Did you find it?
Yin Rune Jing from beginning to end
Saying the same thing over and over again
see
Way of viewing the sky
See how heaven works
There are five thieves
Chang
See how the five thieves are stealing from you
Practice of knowledge
See the seeds in the dark
The entire Yin Rune Sutra
On the surface, it talks about the law of heaven, the art of war, and the governance of the country
But its true core
Only two words
see
And the core of consciousness-only practice
Also two words
watch
see
Just watch
watch
Just see
One is the language of Taoism
One is Buddhist.
Two thousand years ago
One is in China.
One is in India.
Across the Himalayas
Two groups of people with no communication at all
Go towards the depths of consciousness
Finally, we met at the same place
There's no text there.
There are no denominations.
No way
There is no Buddha.
Just one thing
Can you just calm down?
See what's happening
See without labels
See without judgment
See without making up a story for it
You can try it now.
Before putting down the phone
Take three seconds
Do nothing.
Just seeing your current state
Do not evaluate
Do not analyze
Just see
If you do
Congratulations!
You just completed a way to see the sky mentioned in the Yin Talisman Sutra
It also completed a truthful observation of the consciousness-only theory
They are the same action
The Yin Symbol Sutra with 400 words
It's not teaching you anything new.
It reminds you
You already have this ability
It's just that five thieves have been helping you block that light
What do you think is the most shocking sentence of the Yin Talisman Sutra?
Five thieves, heaven and man are united, and three thieves are suitable
Of these three concepts
Which one do you find most relevant to your own life?
I'd love to hear your thoughts
I am Wang Lijie
See you next time.
