The Surangama Sutra: Twenty-Five Means to Enlightenment, Session Five, Part 10 of 11 April 7, 2019

“Because of hearing and consideration, I escape the six defiling objects, just as a sound leaps over a wall without hindrance. And so, I have the wonderful ability to manifest shape after shape and to recite mantra upon mantra.” “These shapes and these mantras dispel the fears of living beings. Therefore, throughout the ten directions, in as many lands as there are fine motes of dust, I am known as one who bestows fearlessness.” “…The Buddha asks about perfect penetration. From the gateway of the ear, I obtained a perfect and illumining samadhi. The conditioned mind was at ease, and therefore I entered the appearance of the flow, and obtaining samadhi, I accomplished Bodhi. This is the foremost method.” The Buddha says that all Buddhas are reliant on the Sound Stream to come down to the world to deliver sentient beings. And all Buddhas, also enlightened Beings, are reliant on the Sound Stream to go back to the original Source. The vibration currents that all beings have to rely on to achieve what they want to achieve or to go Home. It’s like a highway.
