Last week we covered both the evil views that “Substantialism in which Worldly Phenomena Truly Exists and Are Not Illusory” and “Emptiness is Separate from and Independent of Worldly Phenomena.” Earlier we discussed the Erroneous view that “Realizing Emptiness Is Unrelated to the Level of One’s Realization and Merit” (CLICK for link). This final article from the “128 Evil and Erroneous Views” from the Supreme and Unsurpassable Mahamudra of Liberation on emptiness includes how to view the dharmakaya.
Evil View #10: Acknowledging that the dharmakaya is an entity with form
Our tathagata-garbha true mind refers to the dharmakaya. The dharmakaya is one of the three bodies; namely, the dharmakaya, sambhogakaya, and nirmanakaya. Those with this view describe the dharmakaya as having form, size, color, or a feeling of tranquility, peace, or happiness. Any view that regards the dharmakaya as an object with shape or awareness of feelings is an evil view.
Dear Zhaxi Zhouma Rinpoche, I am a Vietnamese person and I was introduced by Sangjie Tieba Rinpoche to contact you so I can get access to True Buddha Dharma discourses by H.H Dorje Chang Buddha III. I already read What is cultivation and 128 Evil and Erroneous Views by His Holiness and I felt so powerful and so touched. I feel so great each time I read about News or Announcement about His Holiness story or activity. So I am looking so much forward to receive more teachings or news related to True Buddha Dharma by signing up your website. With all the best wishes for you and Sangha. Namo Amitabha!
