Meditation for Beginners
The Dhammakaya
">
"> Dhammakaya are both the proper name and the proper state of mind
that’s well polished by practicing meditation. It is not the new theory or new
theory of Buddhism and it is neither new Buddhist sect nor school.
"> For the fact, it is the oldest word, one word that means the whole. Dhammakaya
is one word that could wrap both process and the essence of truth mentioned in
Buddhism.
">

Dhammakaya is known by famous Buddhist scholars as it is the state of
enlightenment, the Body of Enlightenment, the Body of Dhamma or the Truth Body.
And also is known as the immortal body enriched by the Ultimate Truth of The
Lord Buddha. It is the body of non-defile. It is invisible by normal eyes but
touchable and undeniable.
The word Dhammakaya is always in the oldest suttas. And also it is reported in
the history or legendary as the main principal of the earliest school of
Buddhism such as Theravada and Sarvastivada. Dhammakaya was also called “The
Body of Wisdom” in some suttas.

Why is Dhammakaya treasured as the whole meaning of Buddhism?
"> The answer is, with this state of enlightenment it stimulated Prince Sidhatta
to enter the higher truth.
Because it is the body of transition, the only body
that could knock the door of Absolute Truth to widely open and welcome his
entering. Then, step by step, through the centre upon centre, worked out by the
crystal mind, Prince Sidhatta had turned himself Lord Buddha by entering the
Supreme Truth that is higher than Arhat.(Arhat is the highest state of
Dhammakaya.)
Then, for the rest of his life until forever, he is at that topmost state. And
Nibbana is his final place after his passing away.

">

Nibbana is the place only for the immortal body of Lord Buddhas and Arhats.
"> As known by scholars, Dhammakaya is the body in condition of being Lord Buddha.
It is the body that changed Prince Sidhatta to The Lord Buddha. All are in two
conditions, first that man or Prince Sidhatta should wear the physical body of
Maha-Purisa ( the 32 signs of being great man) and second is to enter and be
forever with the highest state of Dhammakaya.
But the physical body of being a great man (with 32 marks of a Great Man) was
with him before his entering the Middle Way. So it was only The Dhammakaya that
made him change and turned him to be The Lord Buddha.
">
">
Then we can say that The Dhammakaya is the whole process and the essence of
truth mentioned in Buddhism.
">
">
">
"> Like Laung Pu said, to survive life in petals of peace and happiness is to be
with in the state of Dhammakaya, even with the very basic one.

“Dhammakaya” -- the Body of Wisdom -- that Laung Pu brought back to life again
in the world of living Buddhism.
