few questions:
1. If Master Da Shi has the deep meditation skills for 3 years, 3 months and 3 days, I personally think that the obstacle of lust will not be broken. Only with a deep understanding of the prajna emptiness can one enter the concentration, and the physical body and desire and love must be eliminated. In the film, Dashi still needs to see some pictures of the "Bone View", and he obviously failed to understand the profound meaning, and resolutely entered the secular life. The director and screenwriter may have theoretical understanding, but may not have a deep understanding of the practice itself.
2. Speculations on Shakyamuni Buddha's cultivation of Taoism: "own first and then give up", "give up one's position to truly learn". It may be right in a general situation, but it may be deviated or even wrong when placed on the path of Buddha Shakyamuni's enlightenment. The Buddha appeared in the world because of a major event, and it is very people who can know about the liberation of all beings who are obsessed, its blessings, the actions of a bodhisattva in the ground, and the motivation to become a Buddha in the Saha world. To speculate on the path to becoming a Buddha based on a fragment of the Buddha is extremely deviant and absurd. At the same time, the practitioners who imitate them will be completely different.
3. The "Eight Difficulties of Entering the Stream" is quoted, but the use in the film is very isolated and the expression is far-fetched.
4. The final big segment expounds the director's understanding from the standpoint of the Buddha's wife Yasodhara, which is also thought from a human perspective, which is also laughable. Like Mrs. Maya, the mother of the Buddha, and the Buddha's partner, they all have motives and karma over the past eons, such as "the Buddha was inspired by his wife" is purely personal speculation.
It is true that erotic desire is the biggest obstacle to cultivating the Tao. This film undoubtedly touches on this core, but it is still very insufficient in depth. Including the sea is also a point. The sea of nirvana is the ultimate destination of all living beings, but under the premise of holding a physical understanding of this, it is very weak to make a more in-depth explanation. The so-called "the pursuit of the Dharma can be achieved by the love of my feelings" is really a superficial understanding of the path of cultivation. I just hope that practitioners or those who have a relationship will not be misled by this.
