Zhong Maosen: No before going to bed YIN Thought, but do YIN What to do if you have a chaotic dream?

Question: Let’s take a look at the questions asked by the ninth fellow practitioner.He said that I am a niche living in the Han area. A few years ago, due to my own causes and conditions, I saw many scientists in the world's research on life and death, near-death experiences, case studies on reincarnation, as well as hypnosis, watching reincarnation, etc., which made me absolutely believe in the reincarnation of all sentient beings.Then I came into contact with Buddhism. I entered Buddhism through scientific research. Naturally, I went through the stage of doubt and deep belief, from not understanding Buddhism, to practicing breathing and chanting Buddha's name every day, I will not explain the experience here in detail.I used to have a very bad habit, which was to often fantasize and masturbate. In the process of not knowing Buddhism to deeply believing in Buddhism, I went to many websites, such as "Abstinence of Evil and Emotional Network", "Studying Buddhism", etc. My bad habits have basically been changed since I chanted the Buddha's name. The situation is very good now. I breathed and chanted the Buddha's name during the day, and I could hardly get rid of the fantasy.But there is a problem that has always bothered me, that is, I will have lustful dreams when I sleep every ten to fifteen days, and before going to bed, I have no lustful thoughts. I chant the Buddha's name and sleep, sometimes it is lustful dreams, and sometimes it appears when I am half asleep and half awake.What should I do if this is the case?I have no lustful heart, but I always dream regularly, or this situation occurs in my confusion. Is it because I am not effective enough to recite the Buddha's name, or is it because of other reasons?

Answer: This is indeed not effective enough to recite the Buddha's name.You should know that the lustful thought of lust is a habit of sentient beings since the beginning of time and is very profound.Why do we receive rebirth in the six realms?One of the fundamental reasons is that lust has not been eliminated.If we were polluted in the past and developed these bad habits, and now we have studied Buddhism, we can reduce them and gradually eliminate them, this is your progress. Knowing that this thing is not good will not only cause serious damage to our wisdom life, but also allow us to be bound in the six realms of reincarnation for life and cannot escape. Even for people in the world, this habit will greatly harm the body and mind.Dr. Peng Xin gave two lessons, one of which specifically talked about the harm of lust to the body, so you can listen more.If you really try your best to chant the Buddha's name, you can gradually resolve this idea, and you have indeed seen progress.However, these phenomena often occur when you lose your mind. This is because your skills are not effective and you cannot raise them when you are half asleep and half awake. This is because you are not chanting the Buddha's name enough.If you want to chant the Buddha's name well, you will immediately raise it when you encounter the state of mind. This is called being familiar, so you must strengthen chanting the Buddha's name.

The best book in terms of abstinence is the collection of "The Sea of Desire Returning to the Crazy Sea" in "Anshi Quanshu". You can read this more and read it carefully, so that you can truly see how harmful it is to truly understand this habit and slowly quit it.Not only will the body no longer behaved, but the mind cannot even think about it. The "Lingyun Sutra" teaches us that "we must make lustfulness, and both body and mind are eliminated." To eliminate lust in the body, we must also eliminate lust in the mind and purify our mind. In this life, we will be reborn in the Pure Land.Why?You are no longer bound.
