Understanding the sky

This is my second time asking this question. Your sincere answer last time too
Thank you very much.
Also, this question is not a priority, so it's serious
Please prioritize your consultation.

Since the concept of “sky” is not defined in studying Buddhism,
I would appreciate it if you could teach me.

I can only ask questions using expressions such as abandoning the world, so
I'm also worried that the meaning of the question will be understood.

From learning Buddhism up until now, everything is a “phenomenon”
And what is the “entity” that continues to be in that moment
No, I understand that everything flows like a river
It was there. = impermanent and selfless
→Is this understanding correct?

Things are neither “there” nor are they “not.” = empty?
To be honest, I'm having a hard time understanding this meaning.
An image of the word “sky” (from) as a secular surrender
If so, it feels like “empty.”
But when defined as nothing, the six sensors activate nothing
I don't think so.
“I saw” and “heard”... actually exist.

What I understood was
Everything is structured in the form of “ground water fire wind,” a phenomenon
The way it appears as is different.
→Matter, human, animal, plant... etc

I felt that everything could be called energy.
I don't know if the expression energy is appropriate.

Matter has energy called mass.
Life also has mass, but it also has a heart, desire for survival, and various things
I have such a desire. These were described as energy.

this energy collides with other energies and changes
It is born and continues to change constantly as a phenomenon due to the law of cause and effect.

Matter also comes into contact with air, and energy collides between matter and air
It oxidizes in combination, and the thing itself continues to change.

My own mind (although I don't think I actually have an entity called myself)
The six boundaries hit the six sensors and recognize things (energy
The moment they collide), the mind responds in some way with six senses.

Maybe it's more appropriate to influence each other than the expression collide
I don't know.

Therefore, “sky” is not something that is/isn't (emptiness)
one energy collides with other energy (impact),
What do you understand as a phenomenon that continues to change due to the law of cause and effect
Is that wrong?
I feel empty = impermanent = selfless.

I'm sorry this is a rudimentary question, but thank you.

It's a bit confusing... but it feels empty.

Nice to meet you, my name is Fujinami from the Jodo Shinshu.
Let me write a part of what I think...

Various laws are not autonomous
they are also disobedient
uncommon cause
no one knows why

I would like to list a passage from “The Middle Theory” written by the ancient Indian Buddhist monk Dragon Tree Bosatsu (c. 150A.D.).
Dragontree Bosatsu says
“Various beings and events, no matter where or what, never exist as having arisen from oneself, from others, from both, or from nothing.”
It seems to be a list of words whose meaning is unknown, but it can also be said that it is a kind of philosophical theory. In very simple terms, all phenomena and events that exist in this world, including oneself, have all appeared as a result of a relationship between cause and cause, and they do not exist alone...
It means that there is always a causal relationship between things. I think this way of thinking is connected to the idea of “color is the sky, the sky is color” explained in the “Heart Sutra.” That's why it's called an “unautonomous sky (fujishoku).”
We think about beings and events close to us. This is called “obsession.” They are trapped by events and mental effects that may occur around them. But all of these things are “empty.” And since it becomes “empty,” it is also impermanent. Impermanence means that an existence or event changes in any way contrary to one's own thoughts. The reason I grow old is because it is “empty,” and it's impermanent.
However, “sky” is not synonymous with “nothing.” “Sky” refers to a state where there is no substance, and it is a basic state for luck (cause ~ relationship ~ effect) to be established. In other words, it starts with the cause of old and young, and it is the reason that it results in old age through a relationship called aging. Aging is the cause, and weakness is linked, leading to death. Weakness also causes death.
Also, I think that the reason I repeat these causes and effects is because I exist in this world because all causes are related. If you don't exist yourself, it can be said that every event surrounding you won't occur. It's the same as the proverb “Where there's no fire, there's no smoke.”
Apparently, when I hunt myself down, I start to worry about what the Dragon Tree Bosatsu discussed (wry laugh). If you think about it, my devotion to the Jodo Shinshu sect is also
It would be nothing but “sky.” There is a cause leading up to the Jodo Shinshu sect, and various things are related, which is why they simply belong to this sect.

As for me

For me, simply,
Empty = impermanent conduct and no laws
I'm interpreting it as.

It becomes fun when this place is clean, but...

Yes, the sky is not “from” or “presence/absence.” That is the point of discussion at Rokushigaido. Whether empty or not, let's think of it as “there is no boundary called oneself = everything.” Strictly speaking, “everything and individuals are free.”
This is an image of Google Maps zooming in and out. If you enlarge the temple, it is an individual building, such as the main hall, temple gate, and parking lot. As this shrinks, it becomes 00 towns, becomes 00 cities, becomes 00 prefectures, and eventually becomes the Japanese archipelago and the Earth. This freedom of expansion and contraction is “individual and total” = “it can be said to have or not (there is no main hall, it can also be said that it is the earth)” = “color is the sky, the sky is color”

Now, the trend before the sky pandemic was Buddhism (5th place 75 method), which says “understood (understood) by dividing”. The six roots, six kingdoms, and six senses were all classified, and the entire world was expressed by listing them all. And he said, “The eye is the eye, not myself. My ears are my ears, not my own. Even if I examine them one by one, I don't have myself anywhere. There is no process where suffering is born because you don't have yourself. There is no way that suffering will occur. Look, I've been saved!” I explained it.

However, over 90% of people sleep or voluntarily cancel classes while being examined one by one. Therefore, the classified routes were combined and switched to routes. One of the variations put together and put together is the word empty. “Everything is empty. I don't have myself anywhere. “Because I don't have myself, the same sentence below” so I also think empty = (impermanent+selfishness) is more accurate.

At the end of your question, there are many words “effect” as a common language for “collision.”
The image of 719's energy probably corresponds to karma... However, karma is a concept where it is easy to fall into a valley of discriminatory ideas like climbing a knife ridge. Please don't go into it yourself. Aum Shinrikyo also misinterpreted karma, reincarnation, and death and fell to hell

Rather than the feeling of “one energy colliding with another,” I understand it by the image of atoms and molecules colliding (acting) as part of the action of the entire river flow. Molecule A and molecule B are colliding, and it feels like both A and B are being pushed by the flow of the entire river and colliding.
However, when we get this far, various interpretations come up depending on arguments and commentaries, so making a “fixed interpretation” itself directly leads to confusion in the first place. Case division is essential. The work on the right is also involved, so please refrain from entering the mountain until you have transferred to a university

Toward an understanding of “sky”

719-sama

This is Kawaguchi Hidetoshi. This is my humble answer to the question.

“The concept of 'sky' is undefined in studying Buddhism”...

There are two types of understanding “sky” that can be grasped logically (ratio) to some extent, and those that can be grasped with (experiential) intuition (actual quantity), so it is important not to panic or be impatient, and to make efforts while proceeding with Buddhist practice.

“I can only ask questions using expressions of secular abandonment, so I'm also worried that the meaning of the question will be understood.” ・・

It goes without saying that the treatment of secular abandonment is important when it comes to winning and giving up. Also, there are places where opinions are divided in various ways about the definition of secular abandonment, so it is important to think carefully.

“From studying Buddhism up until now, I understood that everything is a 'phenomenon', there is no 'entity' that continues to be in that instant state, and everything flows like a river. = impermanent and selfless”...

Roughly speaking, I think that kind of understanding is fine. However, please understand impermanence as a change due to “causality” (cause and condition) within “luck.”

“Things are neither 'there' nor are they 'not.' = empty? ”...

“Things do not exist “as entities,” nor do they not exist.” “As an entity” is an important point.

“I saw,” “heard,”... actually exists.” ・・

Things that are due to “good fortune” are possible. However, it means that “as an entity” is not possible.

“Is it wrong to understand that “sky” is not something that is/isn't (emptiness), but rather a phenomenon where one energy collides (affects) other energies and continues to change due to the law of cause and effect? I feel empty = impermanent = selfless.” ・・

Actually, it is necessary to think about three major dependencies for “good fortune.” In the case above, would it be understood as the first “good fortune”? The remaining two are also written a little bit in the following humble remarks, so please take a look.

Due to the character limit, I'm sorry for making this far.

Oops! Ola, it's Goku. Omeh, it looks like it's not getting there.

Oops! Ola, it's Goku!
For now, try to see 👀 hear 👂 sense things around there!
Then, feel it before your head can determine “what” it is. How do things appear at that time?
Actually, this is an important ascetic practice for understanding the sky. I don't understand the sky. It's an experience.
Things were reflected in Omeye's eyes and sounds echoed in her ears even before she was told to see and listen.
What's more, there's nothing left of what I just saw. It's refreshing.
It looks like Krillin and Yamcha, who should have died until a while ago, are coming back to life on the next page. 💀
I can see and hear things, and whether they are there or not, I spend my time looking at the waterfall and flushing the jar without even knowing what it is on Omeye 👀 Sensation 👂.
It looks like a Showa toilet bowl and it's been flowing all the time.
To put it simply, it's a fully automatic purification function.
There's always a monster in front of me now who completely reset what was before. huh huh!
That's why we're always emptying, emptying, and resetting.
Don't think it's going to be empty from now on.
You'll fall into the idea that “if you hold the sky, you'll lose the sky.”
“If you follow the sky, you'll disobey the sky” is proof that you haven't seen the real thing.
When everyone hears something like the sky, they imagine something like “sky.”
The only reason why Omee can't understand the sky is because of a strong image of himself beforehand.
Even if you read a book and understand the sky, you won't be able to understand the sky. This is because understanding the sky means “salvation” happens.
You don't need any prior letters or knowledge to ride on the clouds.
The guy who has it won't let me ride. ☁ Look at that monster right in front of you. What was just now is nowhere. Right now, the current Sujitoun is here to pick you up, right? can you see it?
Meal time will pass if you just read recipes when cooking.
If you don't touch on Nama's ingredients, it's empty talk on the table.
If you realize that the reality of our body and mind is originally empty, Omeye will become a Super Saiyan (Buddha).
I bought clams the other day and left them overnight.
I thought it would be fine if I cooked it, so when I drank it in miso soup, it was so delicious.
The tragedy was that hour long.
The bulma I was wearing was a disaster. 💩
But when I was drinking miso soup, I just drank it because I thought it was really delicious.
Ola and Bulma from that time are already there now, huh? 🚮 Is it a big deal
After going through “there” both in terms of time and space, nothing is there anymore.
Even though I can't do anything right now, that's not the case either. well then!
