A person born with birth, it is no coincidence that they become good or evil. The main exposure and impact directly or indirectly from family, relatives or friends around a huge influence on him. The formation of the moral foundation of personality and mood of this depends largely on the existence of objective factors. In other words, the living conditions and environment for common residence has almost the entire embryo awareness, thoughts and their feelings. After this, they mature, mature and nice or not, there are evil, guilt, scandal or not, the surrounding environment exposure causes more or less decided.

   Monastic environment is a good environment, it can be said that where character education, training, nice people and amazing. It is a way of looking at and evaluating joint decision. By simplicity, renunciation always elegant, gentle, happy and at peace than secular. Not worldly people do not have happiness, peace, but it seems that this is only transient short-lived, temporary, rest days are long chains of many anxieties, suffering always kept as parallel, next step. Very rarely happy with it eternal life, mostly the opposite. Private home person would not entirely different from the secular, meaning that they also at times sadness, anxiety. But when they are in situations like that, who ordained that sober wisdom, mindfulness and equanimity to identify, disturb brain metabolism. Therefore, there will alleviate suffering very quickly. Even here, the inner peace and time is set, the ability to balance the state consolidation, home person will find peace, serenity for body and mind.

   There are many reasons to make people have left home, abandon families forced to live a life not clear, encumbered. Though he is young or grown up, has achieved glory or no glory, what position in society; Whether the people of all strata, any hierarchy or whether he has what matter is; Though very different from each other in all respects, but they still exist in common: they osmosis, enlightenment is a truth, a truth that's what real life. The truth, that truth can be a pain factor, may be thinking about the fleeting, temporary of human life, or can also be a moment where the world is impermanent so fragile. From there, they suddenly flourish in love. Naturally, they know compassion for the sufferings of himself, his love and begin to care about the suffering of many people around them. Because of the injury, so they want to do something to awaken, call love, almost soothing partially filled with suffering that people are facing day. They know only ordained that the only way to help them with that opportunity, so that they can step up on top of love can open arms ready to dedicate, give. Love her, so, so incredibly beautiful and graceful; mind that, as the result of the first factor Bodhi seeds.

   Who has ordained Bodhi seeds. By Bodhi seed is the seed of love and understanding. Due to comprehend human life and suffering, in his mind new love arises. Forged strong love, the longing and renunciation expect yourself will directly or intermediate life to help people and alleviate suffering. Seeds Bodhi therefore, it is necessary to be regularly fertilized, watered; must know how to care for each day goes by, Bodhi seed in the monastic center to add big day. At one point, Bodhi seeds that will bud, and grow into fruit offered for life.

   Each person was ordained as a seed for Bodhi. They always exist in the material of love and understanding. If the gardener merely sowing without knowing care, watering, fertilizing, etc. ... sooner or later, the other seeds will wilt, wither. Can not say that only seeding on cold ground, so naturally every seed will grow, germinate. Gardeners can not leave her for a bare grain, much less a surrender to the impact factor around! Bodhi Seeds of renunciation, too, must be the support, guidance and inspiration of their mass increases!

   We do not think when someone says, reality Bodhi seeds of today's renunciation is gradually consumed and degraded? Home people live in an environment where, as well as the practice of the great love we are not the responsible leaders reminded, encircled, interested. They live in a temple just as an inn in advance, stop, at first at first to go no need to posture, manners. On release new monastic world, he always cherished an ambition in his heart, a wide open love unbounded. They aspire to be self-conscious and responsible towards enlightenment yonder shore, the horizon of the absence of suffering. They are eager to serve as a soldier to fight against the sand, ready to face and cope with numerous challenges, risk space. Because of their love. Factors such as catalyst performance to help them be more ideal implementation. And they were ordained. However, since the actual renunciation, because not study in a good environment; not pity, you love; the solidarity too weak, everyone knows their care; not been taught, reminding etc. ... generally embraced the power of the sangha, center or primary factor Bodhi seeds will not move his previous development. How green ambitions in the very beginning has swept anger, egoistic. Then they will go quickly forget they are an ordained forget the great responsibility which ones, friends and all who believe and put a lot of expectations. In this case, he was dying of lethargy, as well as other people who do not care about her garden seed, every seed on barren lands.

  
   But true when we attributed all responsibility and guilt to the leader, or the leader of the blame reverse ordained? And is not it time someone said that, all of the above are caused by the environment and circumstances surrounding the impact? If so, Do we need to improve the environment for living right now? There are also many teachers love and care for his disciples, a quiet life sacrificed so much for our map. But who was the disciple impolite, stubborn, consider this interest as a clear barrier force. So quick disciple he sought to escape, his own life in a small loss, a war to be free am comfortable. Falling for this home person, this level can be seen. Ordained by him alone, not to support the energy and inspiration of all public roads, sooner or later, the Bodhi seeds he will fade away, disappear, love will delete sign in center. Meanwhile, worldly power and sexual charisma of the ceiling will easily pull them he returned to secular life.

   So, before you left home, he must clear wisdom, understanding, and his choice for a masters degree and rely lifetime, a good environment, a mass peaceful, dignified purity. It is this correlation is the basic element, helping Bodhi seed in his mind blossomed and grown up more. He then will find happiness, peace, joy; ideals and aspirations of the renunciation will be based on the platform as a solid launch pad. They will live the true life of a monastic, will say and do as a ceiling made sergeant rank.

   Book "Seeds Bodhi" is formed which stems from ideal, longing, expectation of the home person, especially the young monk. The booklet is a mere collection of twelve articles of twelve novice poetry was very, very young. Each article as a color page is not tarnished, the print was vicious circumstances, feeling, mind the difference. There novice to renounce to heal disease, have ordained for novice family no longer wanted to follow closely now; also made by engineers from small attention has been living, studying under Buddhist family, and also for novice monastic life can feel something is short, impermanent. Words per post though very simple, rustic, simple, but in which the silvery young, bright, sincere and very easy to make innocent people look sympathetic and in tune. How can not tune and sympathy when each post, each novice are honest voice comes from aspirations to take, as well as cause heart and its ordained purpose! They all have the same thing in common: to help his monastic vows, help people more fun, less suffering.

   We appreciate how precious and injured before the pure soul, pure, gentle child who ordained him. Because we believe due to the nice environment, Bodhi seed in your mind that will sprout quickly. We also believe the Bodhi seeds will get more and more real than the support, took guidance from friends, from teachers to go through every day, Bodhi seeds will be cultivated, nurtured. We already know this, there will be a dawn there, the seeds will reach Bodhi branch pierced body, radiating calm shade shadow beings.
