At the beginning, the Quy Son destroy the right to fall on the body, that is to say the cause for life. When we understand that we exclude self, no longer attach themselves to the body, so as a new way forward on the way home.
That is, the cause of this life is karma. Karma is either good or evil, or non-virtuous.Senselessness is normal, not good not bad. Even if there is creation of karma, there is still going in the birth of samsara. It is because of creating karma and it is tied back, from which it leads to life. Either the body, the human body, the body of hell, ghosts, animals, etc., also depending on the industry that is wrong. It is because of other wrongs that the body is wrong.
So, as long as there is karma, there is still birth in the birth of samsara, sure is inevitable, no other way. Must master that.
We want to be liberated, it must stop. Stop hand to create new liberation. Also create the birth is still birth. To be clear, we are training in the sense of liberation, the karmic liberation, do not create birth and death again. Should meditation often say "depending on the former career, but not create new karma.
Condition is because we still miss this body should be dependent on it to live. But life is to open gradually, to eradicate old kamma without creating new karma. That is the path of liberation.
But when we are here, we still create new karma, many old career but not to worry about creating new karma, to become a nostalgic, but not free. So many people have a period of time and then a little boring, how to cultivate forever without seeing liberation only to find affliction, is because they do not grasp this sense.
People practice following worldly habits such as going out, watching cai luong, television, novels, sword fighting, etc., then in the direction should be we have to stop not recall, not bold back . But there are people who want to open a television for some knives, and read some novels. To spend? To create new karma, to emphasize old habits. Just as the writing is bold, so when you meditate, the images that arise. So the old but not new but add new should sit meditation is not quiet. As long as we recall, that our old habits have been trained deep in the depths of many lifetimes, always evoked, then it must remember forever.
On the contrary, knowing that these are the things that make the mind think according to the conditions, according to birth and death so we have to stop it to take care of the precepts, concentration, wisdom, so that our minds on the path of liberation, as So meditate quietly.
As said, it is the gas of birth and death, since the practice of many generations into the habit, all the way to recall is that it is easy to get infected. The career of the unreasonable or liberation industry is new to the new training should be very new. Just as the new lesson begins to recite the previous sentence is forget the following sentence, forget to forget this unreleased career.
We have to regularly reflect on the practice to promote smuggled food that consumes the old gas.
Do not go to the temple today, sad to this person, tomorrow solicitation with the other, try to think of creating new karma? If so, do not get rid of it. It is sad, that it is the end of the karmic life after birth will meet in the grace again. For the life of this grace, the resurrection is obviously the next birth to meet in the grace. So what good? It is just an obstacle to your own path.
Know that then you have to stop karma, try to make life open, not to bury the body, called a career. Because sad, resentment does not love each other that the next birth will find in the way not loved. Intimacy is met in the attachment, is the business ends. So everyone needs to know to get rid of it, that is the path of liberation.
Secondly, harboring wealth, creating personal careers. Tu and then to harbor the wealth to create a career, own house, then create a new career? New to the monastery is ready to discharge, but the temple a little longer to create karma again, began to catch up, slowly recovered. It is also creating new karma, creating the humanity to last longer in birth and death.
He told us straight to see clearly the life of this body, that is karma. What is karma? That is the action of the body and mind or called the body, speech, our mind. From the three places, the mouth, the mind but the idea is active. So when the body do, mouth speak but no determination, not deliberate, the lightweight, but with the intentions of heavy industry, called the determination.
Relating to the karmic retribution of the karma, there is an industry, a career, a career, and a career.
"Industry" is the common karma. For example, we practice together in a monastery, which is "the community". But in the industry, each person has a special career, so even though the same temple where each person has his own lifestyle, there are different sets of gas. The practitioner is easy to progress, the practitioner slow progress, there are long-time practitioners encounter the accident, but the people are more smooth.
Or someone heavy on craving, heavy on anger, heavy on ignorance. Every one has his own karma, which is "special career". But whether it is a business or career, the practitioner must clearly see the business that he is not his own training. Must remember! I mean those are not really my own, the pure mind is my own. But these karmic practices are what we have learned so far.
When they understand it, they are easily sympathetic to each other. When seeing this person, the other person does not like his own, it is known by the practice of private practice. If at the time of the practice of many yards, while the other is pursuing karma, many people have different ways of living. In this life, each family educates their children in a particular way, is also a different training, then we have sympathy with each other, does not require anyone the same as his.
Then "career and undecided": "Uncategorized" means retribution is not certain, when you create this life, but the next life, or life after the next new life. Sometimes, when we create new conditions, the result can be called uncertainty. The "industry" is created then the decision is the next generation of results. But it also turned into lightweight, so the new practice.
As all people have created this birth and death. But life itself is not fixed so we can cultivate to liberate. If the birth and death that fixed it out of tu. As well, it can not solve anything anymore. Here we can cultivate to end the birth of life, liberation of samsara.That is the way we are practicing.
It is divided into many things such as "accumulation of karma" and "karmic retribution".
"Accumulation of business" means the industry itself, harnessing a strong one. The Buddha generates strong accumulation in any direction, just as the tree tilts in any direction, when sawing it falls in that direction. Accumulate your career as well. To accumulate strong karma in any way, when I die I will go that way. If the accumulation of strong karmic liberation, when the death is not complete liberation, but the next birth to recall early.
"Near death karma" means the death of karma. For example, ordinary people make a lot of accumulated good karma, until near death, due to the conditions of the old gas, then it is a recitation of anger, but hate too strong, it led a little wrong. Life after birth is affected by the death of this karma is not good, but if the karma accumulated strong, arise up will transfer. Therefore, around the beginning of his life is not good but then good. We need to understand karma carefully to know that prevention.
Thus, we cultivate the right to turn the career and stop the karmic path of liberation. In the Buddha said that due to causation, karma is brought to this body, not everyone brings it to me, nor by chance. It is good for me to create good or bad life is my responsibility, not to blame. Understanding, we will have the courage to take responsibility, not to blame, to lament, to blame this and that.
And life has been suffering the suffering of the body, the body should say "Considered by the bondage that takes the body, avoiding the suffering of the body." It means being born, old, sick, dead, hungry and thirsty, hot and cold, and so on. And if there is no body, then there is no hunger, heat and cold.
Being born deluded should be attached to his body, not knowing when carrying this body is carrying a pile of suffering followed by no fun! Under the eyes of the enlightened are so clear that they do not attach themselves to the body. Once checked, it will be clear.
Taking shape, this body is lost freedom; Do not want anything as it is, be dependent on it. Wanting to be healthy, it is not healthy, it's hot and it's not cool, it's always depend on it, it's a burden. Therefore, there is the feeling of being suffering from suffering.
A Thai teacher said:
- The Ministry in the belly is very happy or not? It's not comfortable at all! Try to think just how much you live in a small shed just how bad it is.
The teacher advised everyone to think of the situation in the whole day to live in a small, confused hut, very uncomfortable, let alone in the fetus long time is not happy!
- When you close all the doors of the room, you have tasted the misery.
Being in a small room, closing the door, closing the wind is not very hard, not comfortable.
- Alas! But in the womb to nine months, you want to birth again or not?
So the Arahants do not want to be born again. Seeing bore birth and death.
And when we study business, listening to the Buddha's words, the teaching is a little boring, but when in life is the same. So that we have to have regular contemplation, confidential, thorough to have deep feelings in their hearts, the new boredom is to want to escape birth and death. At that time, he decided to go out, just want to escape without anyone remind.
He only speaks at the moment of conception and in the womb. Then when birth, how much suffering on the body. So the Buddha said there are four suffering, eight suffering, one hundred and eight suffering, etc. ... the suffering that overlaps the body !!!
In the Diary, the Buddha said at the end:
- This is the body that should be abandoned, the crimes called temporary body, sunk in the sea, old, sick, dead. There is no one who can eliminate it as if it is killing the enemy but not happy!
The Buddha taught that the mind knows it so when the body is the same as to kill the enemy is gentle, happy, where there is no sorrow! But people who love to cling to the body should carry the suffering. As the Arahants when leaving the body is light, open. It is clear to me that this body, no attachment back again. When we go to monastic practice is a straight line, not look back.
"The inheritance from the parents, borrowed the same conditions that it."
It states: At the moment of receiving this body, but not the body, it should be called the inheritance received from the parents, ie from a part of the parents.
Initially from a parent, then in the mother's womb a time when the mother eats something also in the fetus, so part of the mother; not your integrity from start to finish; If it really is, it is not dependent on anything. Being crazy that people see as their own, really this body is not his own, part of the parent, take the parents out.
That immediately revealed the truth of selflessness of this body. It is not her, not her, so obvious. But many people still do not awake, still accept me, is mine to suffer. We learn and thoroughly understand, the truth of it is borrowed partly from the parents.
Then borrow more of the outer coast to become the body as today sit here. That is borrowed from the parents part, then borrowed the coast, water, wind, fire outside so accrued, so now a few dozen characters like this. Because initially there was no sign of the dot only, now dozens of these are borrowed from outside to bring in what is called his?
Consciousness we see clearly the truth of the body to less self-fall on the body. So where does this body come from? This body is not the only one, but the common conditions, so there is a charm, not a single body. Buddha says no-self is that.
The body that exists here is also present in the coast only, lack of grace that it is out of existence, it breaks away, then there is no one in it. The truth of the body is that.
Seeing that, we will open many afflictions, attachments. At the beginning He taught us that it is necessary to stay here to let go of this self or the ego.
"Although four great preservation, but always against each other."
Although it is thanks to four great inside, and then together with four external assistants that temporarily stay for a while, but as long as it exists here, the four also often against each other, not safe. That is, the earth is left with water, and the fruit with fire, and the fire with the wind. The nature of the four is often against each other so four things in the body are always against each other. So it must be smart to reconcile it is temporary peace, loss of harmony it is insecure, that is sick.
To make it clear that we live here is to live on a constant basis, do not be happy! It's just that people are deluded in it. With the wisdom of enlightenment, it is clear that this truth enables us to open up the attachment of the body.
Not the Buddha, the Patriarch taught us so and then to listen, not so. Buddha, the teaching, but we have to reflect, and when we see with the same mind, by our own wisdom, we will open their self-love, is to experience the truth of the Buddha's teachings.
In the Nirvana business, the Buddha taught an example of the chest of four poisonous snakes, this is the same example. Daily, this body is like a chest containing four poisonous snakes, water, wind, fire. Because the four poisonous snakes are in the same trunk, it bites each other, and it is smart to regulate four poisonous snakes. That is called a happy life.
And if it is against the abnormal fruit, the stronger one will cause insecurity. Seeing that and having a clear understanding, we are less attached or attached to this body, so new quiet or straight forward a path, release. So Quy Son Son taught very basic, new in the beginning pointed out that truth so that we see clearly without nostalgia look back.
" Impermanence, old age, sick with no appointment. Early in the evening, the other died . "
This is only for the truth of the shortness of this body, it is not durable, not long to break the common island crazy. This body is not often thought to be normal, because the body is still new because the body that created karma. If it is clear that the truth of the body is very fragile, short-lived, then it is worthwhile to attach to it because it creates karma.Because of insanity it is often, is durable long life, so new because it creates karma to develop it should suffer that place.
And when they look carefully, then except for the mistake often crazy island. Seeing that impermanence always changes, go to one side. It comes without a date, nor an appointment. Early in the evening, just one moment is transferred to another life. New young that old, then that healthy new disease. It was lost. Sometimes we meet again, in the afternoon already. Only one moment is the death of another, then what is called me to be sad, angry, more lost together?
In such a way, is there anything worth accepting in it, to create karma, to suffer?
If you look in the eyes of the gods will also see the human life is very fragile. The gods lived hundreds of thousands of years, so one day, one night they were under the earth for hundreds of years. Not to mention the higher heavens, the longer life expectancy. So if you look at the eyes of the gods, then you look down to see that he was born crying, but he looked back at the dead was dead. So human life compared to heaven is so lightning fast.
Just like we look at insects, ants, butterflies ... Just saw it yesterday, today is dead. Life is short. Or the chicken, the duck see it, some months are dead. The human life for the gods is short, thanks to that we are less likely to accept.
He pointed out the truth of impermanence, suffering, and selflessness of this body clearly. It is impermanent, fragile for suffering, that is not as well. He wants to get old, he's old, he wants to get sick, he's sick; is in harmony, it wants to be separated then it is separated. It goes in the direction of it, its path rather than follow its direction, not what it wants.
It is not as it is not self, it does not belong to any ego, does not belong to me.Conscientiousness throughout this truth, no longer accept the body anymore, ensure that we go deep into the path of Dharma. The Theravadin practitioners of this truth are then cultivating Arahantship, not ordinary. Thus, the depth of this place is nothing else for us to attach ourselves to the body. In the end? It's just a rotten egg, nothing!
Now the body is temporarily breathing, and temporarily stay on the coast full of it is running back and forth a bit. When the end of grace and then stop breathing is only dust! Yet we are left to worry, care for, nourish this damned. We've been bluffing too much lately. Take care of the nourishment, care, care for the whole body. Sometimes it is because it has to create karma.
Thanks to study, the new discernment to see people are truly pitiful. Because this sinkhole slashes, kills each other and creates unforeseen karma, eventually bringing the zipper to the cemetery. Then only because of this zip that suffering for each other, create karma to suffer together, is a mistake, crazy island.
Try to think, new born not have any name, grow up to give it a little bit A, B, C something ... and then clung to that distinction to do it yourself. The name is just a sticky label that looks like something that has not yet been labeled for its label. Thanks to this brand to distinguish the other brand for easy sale.
This body also, so that it is not branded, then labeled it Nguyen Van A, Nguyen Van B ... to know which distinguish when exposed to each other. Salespeople, too, labeled differently so that they are easy to distinguish, not to cling to the labels to create a separation. What is not crazy? Only the brands that we hurt each other, suffering each other.
Asking the question again, according to the Buddha, people are foolish or intellectual?Identify the right place. When clear, remember the right dharma is right. But when they come back to the delusion of accepting it as dumb as beings. So they want to show us that we awaken through these truths that transform into mind.
Here we learn to study this place, learn straight in the truth and not learn to analyze the word. Learn to contemplate, to open up the love affair.
Is it enough for us to wake up or still sleep? At the beginning, Quy Son has stripped the mask of this one for us to see clearly. Then when the ordination is no longer nostalgic, or to look forward to nothing more, but only a straight road to.
"Early in the evening, the death of another death."
Satan means fleeting time, understood simply as a tick. The meaning of the sniper is shorter than the tick.
This is about the impermanence, shortness of the body. The mind is more subtle than the birth. The old saying, in a great memory to 81,000 mannequin, then in a murder has 900 births kill. Just to see the birth is very subtle, if the recitation, each of the 72,900,000 grand memories are birth is very frightening. This place only deep penetrations to see, but we can not see that place.
So all of us living here are living on the flicker, suddenly there is no but not see this place. Because human eyes are limited.
Take the incense stick, for example, to see a ring of fire, but the truth is not the ring of fire. That is the point of fire re-assembled. Your mind also, every point of birth to kill the concept. We only see a single thought, see a thought is quite, not true in each thought that is how many kill death naught anymore.
Seeing the birth of subterranean as such, also want to cherish the body of this kill. He points out the truth of fragile, brief body that makes us aware.
"For example, spring dew, early morning hook, at that instant not; deep river, shallow wells have long. "
In the spring of the morning, when the sun is shining, the fog hangs. Or light up to see the grains it hooks on the top of the grass, on the leaves, a bit after the sun to tan. This body is so fragile, so short, that it is lost but not durable.
So who is right when it clairvoyance temporarily still remains on top of grass, leaves, they must know how to live well with each other a little more meaningful life. In contrast, only to create what hurt each other, then it also tan, finally regret. When they look the same, each person has a more intellectual life, unlike a crazy person.
Then, "the shore, the shallow well is long" is also an example. In the business there is a tree near the edge of the abyss, a labyrinth. Only the wind blowing is that it tilts easily.
My body, too, is standing on the abyss, so it can die at any time. A poisonous breeze blowing through can also cause death. Heard, there are people to sleep on the wind always. And eating well can also die. Falls can also die. That is, people can die at any moment, life is very fragile, why should we cling to it. It is they want to remind us to reduce attachment to this body but decided to progress, because it is not smart to cultivate.
Do not think the time is long, much to do one thing, and later not later. That is crazy thinking. There are many who think that I am still healthy today to worry about doing this, the other intended, planning to finish those things then I decided to cultivate. But it is not expected that it has gone before, so the calculation is not timely.
The day before I was young about 18, 19 years old, lowered the manual labor. When contemplating, deep sense of this impermanence, I was always afraid to cultivate not in time. Feelings of impermanence always close behind me so. At that time, I fiercely cultivated for fear of not being able to think of anything else, just tuition. May I have peace on the new path. So then meet guests or relatives are also ignored, ignoring the need to say hello, nor afraid of who to error, no longer think what the fault.
Only one meaning of this impermanent, if we are deeply touched, have seen the benefits of the great monastery, let alone supreme Dharma. Sometimes we think of supreme supreme dharmas, ignoring the basic foundations, not being clever without the legs.
In Son Shan has reminded everyone of this meaning:
Having seen the riverbank,
Despair can not be discussed.
Some three redundant flower buds,
Thousands of stains hammer knife.
Yellow leaves withered,
Shrinkage of dried roots.
The main living place,
The earth and the earth.
As soon as it was said yesterday, just yesterday saw a tree on the bank of it is greatly reduced. It left only a few leftover flowers, but also thousands, full of hammer hammer full of trees. Then the dew leaves the wilted leaves more and more, below the waves bouncing into the dried roots that are stuck in the trees on the banks of the river. The real life of all things is like that, so no need to resent heaven and earth!
In the Nirvana Sutra said:
Someone in the field was driven by a wild elephant, rushed. Again came a tree on the shallow well, with a rope underneath. He clutched the rope repeatedly. Then in the middle of the well, there are three dragons and four poisonous snakes looking up, if they fall down, they fall into their mouths. Then there were two mice, one white, one black, and the other one was broken. A bunch of bees fell on top of it, dropping it. When he had tasted the five drops, he forgot all the dangers.
Dong only for the three realms of the world. For instance, this tree, for example, is a fragile net. The two sides of the mouse are gradually biting the net is the date of time.The elephant just for impermanence is chasing. The well is for the fluorescent, the dead. Three poisoned dragons are only for the greed of greed. Four snakes poison only four. Bile drops are only for five. All the dangers are available to them, but because of ignorance island crazy, tasted the few drops that are forgetting how much danger.
Just like the life of the wreck in the fun little five that forget the dangers of birth and death, in suffering. So, they want to remind us that the thin body is so short. How many dangerous are waiting for a party, not safe, happy what!
We are cultivators, that is the people who learn the dharma, know the Dhamma must be consistent to look at the mind of the mind, according to the Buddha taught without attachment to it. That's the way to go.
"Fast memory, within the moment, transfer the breath into the next life, so calmly to pass through?"
For example, here he is legitimate again to point out the short truth of this body. That is, your life is counted through each breath, not every month. In life, count each year, while the elderly, sick people who are dying count each month. So it's a bit long. True, life counts in every breath. Short, so fragile.
Breathing out without inhaling is another way of life, not a year long. Seeing life counts in each breath, new know that crazy island is often mistaken for the body is often, see it lasting because it is that karma, so much love!
Consciousness of this place is also clinging to the body, only resolved to solve the need for liberation, nothing else there is no other way.
The contemplation of the instant will sense the short-lived impermanence. Follow the breath out to see out to see his life to follow the breath. When the mind is like that, then the breath is as fine again, thin like a silk thread, can break at any time. Feeling this is the mind to let loose, to worry about gasoline again?
The body is fragile, short-lived, then why calm to pass! Why do not try hard, to improve the practice to the bridge to liberate. That's what he wants to remind. That's enough for us to develop the mind of Bodhi.
Zen master Dao Nguyen taught:
- If the practitioner of impermanence is enough to develop Bodhi mind. When we are impermanent, our minds are not born, we recite the list of benefits . Fear the last time quickly, so urgent practice as fire rescued head, look back to the network is not strong that diligent tired tired. Listening to the sounds of Urinals or the birds of old, as well as the winds blowing through the ears . Although Wang Tuong, West Thi as well as early frost cover eyes . Having left the bondage of sharpness, then self-righteousness!
Many people think of impermanence is the practice of Hinayana, still dry. But do not expect the furniture is depending on each person. Cunningly, the sub-consciousness is also great, and also the subtle. Therefore, he taught Taoist people impermanence, smart, then that is the development of Bodhi mind.
When it comes to impermanence, the mind does not arisen, the list of interests does not start. Seeing the fragile impermanence.
Consequently, impermanence should be urgent. Mainly hurry to practice the monk should look back on this body it is not strong. Therefore, the diligent tu not tired, because not remember the body is tired. Where are the mind that pay attention to good language, good language; I do not have to walk straight to hear the music standing back to listen, again, no time. At that time there is no mind to think of such things, only to worry about not to get this impermanent. And when the color bar is no longer bound, then right ethical, is the development of Bodhi mind what?
So, if the person who is attentive to the brief impermanence of this body is fully awakened, then that is the mind of Bodhi.
So who has not yet? How much is enough to see Quy Shui teach the Messenger or teach the monks for years we too? For years, it is not clear, do not say it is not. Where can you look down?
The more you learn to master the words of the Patriarchs, if only learn to analyze the words, read to read back and feel bored. Who do you bored with, check it yourself!
"Parents do not offer delicious food strange, six relatives decided to leave. Do not help the country to keep quiet, leave the lineage of the home. Stay away from the village, shaved hair according to the teacher.
When the practice is to renounce all the worldly things should leave all the obligations in life. As no longer serve parents to pay for filial piety; nor do we offer strange things;Then, for the neighboring villages, they always say goodbye. Six relatives ie parents, brothers, wife and children considered as retired.
In the rash is the sentence "Cut love from the body," ie cut off the love in the world, from all the people close to me, only a strong will is determined resolve. Newcomers who have strong will, but gradually to the next is strong or not depends on each person.
Many early parents, grandparents prevent how much or not, are ready to cut off, go to school. Looks like a sharp cut to enter the temple. But here long knife cut off not cut off.This has to be checked for shame.
Then the obligation to the country is also lacking, so do not help to help the country, keep quiet territory. The continuation of the watch also dropped. Get rid of the worldly career, step straight up the way out. So it seems that only the road that tu tu tu not worth anymore?
Being in the place of dear, reunion, fun and then suddenly cut off the mind to the temple is the great high. But what does the temple do is the next, important one's lifetime. We must continue to be worthy of our original will.
Therefore, the renunciation of this body is leaving the world, the noble. To step out is to get out of the ceiling, achievement of liberation mind.
"Within the effort to win, in addition to the moral respect, beyond the mundane, expect the day out."
That is our way of coming, not only the body of monasticism is enough.
That is to work in the temple to filter dust in the heart, to worry about elaborate to win the idea, false, crazy island has long been.
In the effort to win the mind, is when the mind think of hope, the pursuit of the coast, the ceiling that has not mastered it led to take, now must overcome that concept. It must be controlled to control it, to win it. If you let it win as you do, what is the benefit of the temple? This is an important place. This is a feat. That is our original noble aspirations, nor is it as trivial as the people of the world.
So if two words "win concept" if read plainly see nothing significant. But if practiced then it is very bitter. To sweat, tears throughout life is not quite finished, not often.
At present, there are also at the temple many years but have won the concept? Or usually, sometimes win it but sometimes it also won, lead me to run out and back again!
We need to learn deeply in practical meaning to apply elaborately. Try to win, it is the practice. There is no need to worry about this, the other, either the status of honor or the high Buddhist temple, not that. It is the place where we must conquer, our new career.
In addition, the great respect. In addition to the practice of harmonious glass, six measures of glass. In the Zen temple also advocated the same.
Six French:
- Harmony of the pillars : That is, students must live harmoniously together to live together, living together.
- Inversion of the avoidance: About the mouth always use the words of harmony with each other, not argue loudly, roughly like the secular.
- Harmony agreement: mind is always happy harmony, do not think enemy, against the contrary.
- Conciliation of the prize: According to the understanding is also happy, sympathetic to each other not to accept personal knowledge, then create prejudice against each other.
- Harmonize the same discipline : harmonious living in the precepts, keeping the same rules, same old rules, do not do your own to the contrary to the general rules, for yourself.
- Benefiting the army: Benefit is divided equally to live together peacefully.
Yogis always keep the spirit of reunion with each other to live together, together to brighten up his virtue, who look at love. Wanting to do that, in the mind, outside the body is the true spirit of the exodus. That is the career of the cultivator. Buddhist teachings so new meaning. Because the Sang means that they are Harmony, the basis is the life of the monk should be harmonious, not harmonious where there is increased meaning.
About Meaning Harmony also has charm.
At one time, when the Buddha went to Dongcheng Park, in the city of Karagama, where three Angels-longans, Kim-nan and Nan-da were living together very well together. harmony.
When the Buddha came to the gate, the doorman did not know how to stop him: "Sa-subject, do not go in to disturb the teachers meditate."
At that time, the Buddha did not say anything, he has long gone from the inside out, he joyfully greeted, said to the gardener: "This is our teacher, let him in.
Ah-nanda-long-momentum brought the Buddha inside, meeting Mr. Nan-da and Mr. Kim-Pi-la. Three people, lifting the bowl, people raise the old-fashioned clothes, then invited the Buddha to sit near the edge of the bamboo trellis, bring water, bring towels to wash his face, wash his feet. Then all three hands Buddha respect.
Buddha asked:
- Are the teachers here calm, the training is convenient? Is begging and propagating easy?
"As Ananda said,
- The Blessed One! We are very safe here, the scene is quiet, the begging and propagation also no obstacle. As a result, we have made much progress in our study.
Buddha asked:
- Do you love and get along?
The white candles:
- We love each other, living together like water with milk. Whenever something important happens, we come together to make a common decision. When learning about the dharma, if there is anything suspicious or unclear, then we discuss together to learn and exchange experience with each other. Lord Buddha! Thanks to the three people in harmony, we find that our study is easy and convenient.
Buddha said:
- Very good! Sharing in harmony with each other is the most favorable conditions for learning.
The three together, harmonious, good study should praise the Buddha.
But one man is good, and two men begin to chisel, and three men, one man at a time.Should live alone is safe, living two or three people together is something. Human mind is so troublesome.
There are three people here together should be more favorable. Along with the coast, you can practice as well. That is what we must learn to live by.
At that time, the Buddha praised and stayed in this garden for a month to observe the way of living and study of the three teachers, while also teaching more about doctrine and practice.
Before leaving, the Buddha told them:
- Hey teachers! If all the congregations in the congregation can treat each other like teachers, it is very beneficial and easy for them to study together. From now on, the Tathagata is proposed to apply the Mara to the masters. (the six hexagrams have been mentioned)
That is the coast of the teachings of Buddhism. We also have to be smart to live and practice.
Here the "precept harmony" is the Thanh Van, the Bodhisattva.
Thanh Van at home has five gender, eight gender, the good sex.
The monk, there are precepts of samadhi, samitin, consciousness, monks, monks, monks. If the precepts of any gender must be clever.
About Mahayana is the Bodhisattva precepts, both at home and home.
This also speaks about the monk meaning.
Monks have a place called rate-pretentious, formerly translated as Secret-number, or Turn-off. There are three meanings: Evil, Devil and Mendicant.
Evil is to destroy defilements, crime must be afraid, must respect; Then the beggar is begging.
So monks that live too lost the meaning monks and then. Even if you have to live a little bit poorly, do not be afraid of wearing your old shirt or shirt and laughing.
Understanding this meaning, it must prevent the mind from running after the general to give birth to the self in it. The Bhiksu beggars must be humble, humble. The spirit of the monk should be like this, to practice the spiritual life to escape this birth. One must go out, do not look back, no regrets should call out.
Because of how many lives we have been tied up in here, suffering so much suffering in this birth and death, then meet the good condition to escape, then straight to escape.
The above is about the body escaping. Here is saying "looking forward to the day out" is what escape anymore? This place is a must to the heart.
That is, to truly attain liberation, in order to transcend the ceiling, that is the goal of the path of renunciation.
Who is the Master Tran Dynasty must be carefully considered to have a definitive practice, start over. Should be called "beyond the mundane, expect the day out", not a melon, no look back.
In the old days of the Bodhisattva, when he was a monk, he awakened. He went to the jungle, but the queen went on forever.
At that time in the forest meet a person to close his eyes to bend straight, he asked him to do so close his eyes?
The bender says that if both eyes are opened, the other eye will not be straight, so one eye should be closed.
He said to the queen: "Brave name but also to do so, I go to the monk that the queen to follow forever, how to straight."
Finally, he broke a branch of the tree, said to the queen: "This tree is broken and can be fixed again? Likewise, I am determined to cultivate a cut that can not be reassembled.Well, come back and let me sleep! " Definitely so.
It is also a meaning to remind us on the path of the seminary to have a definitive, straight forward.
This is called beyond the mundane, not the melon, or go and keep repeating. You have to close your eyes to be straight, new beyond the realm, looking forward to the day out.
"Why have you just come to the sex, immediately say we are monks."
From the Soraya-life on the monkhood is up to a bump, which is up to the product.When we finished the precepts, then we say monks, so what? What is the error of monks? What do you mean? He prevents the mind from chasing the general or giving birth to the ego.
I have not seen myself as a monk, the great teacher to eat on the front seat, that is not.New monkhood is only honor but the monks are not yet, so not worth the monkhood. He wanted to remind the monk to practice more to be worthy of the monks.
So the Dhammapada - product Bhikkhu, the Buddha said:
Rider,
Forbearance and head,
Enjoy meditation,
Single know enough,
Worthy to call monks.
Buddha teaches monks are people who must control, control the hands and feet speech, the gestures of his actions, not let go. Enjoy in meditation, celibate and know enough that new to call monks.
Monks to mouth control,
No words, no high sewer,
When presenting the meaning,
Sweet words sweet
That is to control the mouth, always control the words do not have to say anything should be said as words, nor sew high, concealed. When presenting the meanings, the words are gentle, sweet.
Completely opposite matter,
No, my,
No grief, no sorrow,
Worthy monks.
Monks are not self-alignment, not sorrow, must be so worthy as monks. Monks also known as destroying evil, ie breaking the defilements, so new fear is also called Ghost.
I must break the negativity defies the self, for the nama and nama do not accept me, so there is no sorrow, the new fear, so new worthy monks.
The lawyer Dai Tri Chien, discussing the title monks:
- Sanskrit is a suffix (or translates as Enotics, or Secret-sôô), Chinese translation is Mendicant, that is in the law to correct, in addition to beg for food. Parents are the body line of human beings, but cut off friendship first. The bearded hair is the world's most important people also cut off. Oil inherits seven treasures are left like throwing trash.Top rank is like clouds. Abandonment of impermanence, want to look for the same root of all things, want to make the high, you must lower yourself lower. Stick the stick like the same dry gloves. Bring the other practitioners like broken pottery. Shoulder of the necrosis, is the torn shirt. The elbows are the same as the mortars. Memories in the body in the fourth row. Four continents are the playground; under the trees, between the two are the refuge. Vin of leisure tricycle, according to the ancient mark of the Buddhas.
That is the true disciples of the Buddha, meeting the secular grace does not change.That is the real lady can beat the ghost, tearing up the net, receiving the ceremony to thousands of gold, it really is well. They are the field of beings, do not waste the deposit.The name of the mendicant is the same! "
Mendicants are begging. Inside the Buddha Dharma to modify his xinxing, outside beg to feed this body. Cut off the body affection for parents, bearded hair cut off. And wealthy people go out, then give up stuff like throwing waste grass. Or those in the top quarter, respected people, also see the position is no different than cloud. Like King Tran Nhan Tong, he left home and viewed the status of power unimportant.
"Want to make high, you must lower yourself lower," it is inversely proportional. Bring the bowl to look like broken pottery do not crave; dressed like a torn dress.
"Four y" here belongs to Human Four, not the French. Four kinds of people are four classes of people are trusted and deserve y only. First: the output of ordinary people, such as ordinary people in the output as the three steps, the fourth good base: the ovum, the ring, the first. Second: the level of momentum-complete, momentum, momentum-level, A-la-drought. Those are four people who are worthy of refuge.
"Monks in the mound, under the tree as a refuge," does not matter in the place. In the past, the good deeds of the head-momentum under the tree, where the mound, in the cave. Should stay in the room, should go to the coat, not nostalgic, not important.
"Vin under the leisure of the left step Tam to follow the ancient mark of the Buddhas," the way of liberation. Meet the secular grace unchanged.
The name of the monk or monk is like that. Here, he commanded the newly ordained monk has not declared me here monks, must be about to sit on. That's not good enough.
Here, Quy Son Son reminds the cultivator to be humble, not arrogant and arrogant will lose profit.
"Consumption of credit, consumption of ordinary things, do not know where to think from where to bring, also said that 'natural things should be worshiped.
Say that this monks and consumption of credit but also said that natural reason should be worshiped, because I was monks should they worship it! It is manifesting the arrogant mind, without considering the cause from which these things are.
Quy Son Son reminded our arrogant mind has not yet revealed the birth of the life of the monk and the object of the ordinary. Where do you know that the three Jewels believe in the Three Jewels, believe in the monks, so they look to eat and bring to make offerings to us. Because they think we are the field to plant, not theirs, to force them to offer. If our virtue is not enough, is it easy for credit? It's not easy.
So when we give offerings to ourselves, we are like knives; They come to grinding, ie blessing. The more grinding their knife is, but the more we rub away, the more blessed our own diminishing, very scary, not the natural, where should be happy and then born naturally.
"Eat regular things," the common thing is their common object, not our own, which we eat.
There are four types of cylinders:
1. Common room : Kitchen, warehouse, etc. are not allowed to go, because of the general.
2- The Four Pillars: The Daily Means Provide Them Up.
These two types belong to the rising monks, the monks of the places are also in it, not the temple itself. So they know the monks are coming, they are also part, must be treated properly not to be.
3- Current money: Monk's current money, that is at the temple.
4- The present money: The objects that the monk passed away, also belongs to the current monk. So the money is not the same as their own, so it can not be used for sex.Therefore, the use of the pillars are very careful, not smart, the cause and effect can not be measured.
As the story Master Tu Bao sick, false attendant ginger little kitchen to use drugs. But the attendant down his request to keep the stock, not to have to buy money to buy their new rise, not for freedom. You know, it is wrong to bring money to buy, that is to keep the law.
If we are narcissism, then the Zen master does the right thing. Do not rely on the person you want to go to the kitchen to get something. The more that, the more they are usually, want to get something to get it is not even right.
As long as you want to eat instant noodles to take to the room to eat, that stole their rise. This small job also has a bad cause and effect, so it must be prevented. When we learn to recognize the rules to live properly, if we do not understand the law, the rules to make comfortable, many times being prevented birth and afflicted.
In the past, there was a cause and effect story:
There is a rising to the kitchen stove for some wood to cook the dye, but do not ask it should be like theft. After death in the hell in the fire burned his feet, burning skin.
A brother of that person walking in the field, how did it feel like a temple, there is a tat in it is burning. When asked, the monk said: "This is hell, in the past I have that fault that now is this crime. If you are a parent, you will be compensated for the part of the firewood you have collected. "
These are causalities.
Therefore, for their objects, often used when used with great care, not to spend natural comfort because of the common. Every meal of the monk's ordinance must be practiced in order to show the weight of the offering that we are being subjected to with extreme caution. They pay attention to the benefactors, not spending comfort, for their duty is to bring offerings. Not so!
At the time of Sui in China, there was a monk in Silla (Korean) who was a virtuous person. Many of these individuals make regular offerings of a close-knit house for about 10 years. Thanks to the blessing, the family's fortune is more abundant and richer, and soon enough, they offer their offerings without receding. When this old Zen master passed away, the family also followed the law and buried it.
A few days later, in the garden of this family has a dry tree suddenly grows a special kind of mushroom. The family see the picking on the soup, the taste of mushrooms like meat, so everyone likes to eat. And so, every day to use the soup to bring. Especially it sprouts regularly enough to provide this family.
Some time later the neighbor knew, then there was a person in the neighborhood, at night the wall clogged theft. New knife to cut suddenly heard the tree sounded out the people say:
- Who cut my meat? I do not owe you debt.
This person scared her, but also calmly asked:
- Who are you?
There are answers:
- I was the monk before receiving the offerings of this family, because the virtue is less thin, but the owner is the homeowner with respect to the contribution of indispensable karma, now come here to pay debts. He may be asking me to return the money to my employer and I will be released.
He immediately remembered the past saw this monk back and forth here, he strangled and then lamented. He told the owner of the incident. The homeowners heard the crying and falling away. Later, the hostess confronted the mushroom reparation and said the exemption does not pay anything. The neighbor then went to ask for a hundred jars of rice brought to the owner, since then in the garden no longer grow mushrooms.
This story is narrated in Thich Mon Tu Hai Luc. The author said that this monk named Đạt Nghĩa, age 80, to temporarily shelter the mountain I was. Because of the virtue of this person, I also often provide medical clothing for the monk Dat Nghia. This monk feeling offerings to him should be in front of me sad cry and then told this story and said: "Another life is to cut meat to the teacher."
The story reminds us to reflect on ourselves, believe or not believe it depends on each person. But be careful, caution, do not overestimate cause and effect. Because there is no reason to justify the sin of causality. Consequently, as the consumption of the pillars, we have to be very careful, do not superficial life without worry.
That is what here to remind, the monk has nothing that hurts the consumption of credit, consumption of often abnormal natural comfort, and said that they are monks then they have the obligation to bring Do not have the thoughts!
"Then eat the head of the gas station, just talk the whole world junk food."
Ask a monk, eat the group of five groups of three talk about the story or secular, sometimes talk about marketing or the five things entertainment outside the world, nothing to do with the practice. then how the target of the master! Then discuss the table back, say through the back of a quarrel, birth defilements; or the talk about the other person, the one who is annoying, the other is hateful, then the listener tells the other person about the problem of affliction. That is the business, not smart is to bear the consequences of his karmic retribution. As I say the other person will not take long to retrieve other people say bad words, called causality.
This is something that people are susceptible to, because sadly sitting alone, should find two or three people sitting talking to play. Right to sit alone to get business to gather more intellectual seed, or sit back to his meticulous work, re-examine the mind is better practice. So instead of telling a secular story, it's better to say less than one sentence or say one more sentence about Buddhism. If there are no more words about Buddhism, we say less, then there will be free time to see business, meditation should be more useful.
For example, it is good to talk ethics at first, but at the end of the day, one has to catch up with another. Make sure that when you sit talking for a while without falling into the talk of the world, talk to the real money is respectable, worth it! So here Quy Son Son uses whip for a tree. That book! The book is a whip, a whip for a whip last pain!
Master Toan was born when he was born unlike other people. Everyone was born crying oa oa, and he was born special no cry, grow up not say anything, so people in the neighborhood called "dumb". One day, his family took him to the temple, when he saw the Buddha, he spoke.
Parents are happy to ask:
- Uh! You say it! How silent a few years did not say anything?
He replied:
- I hear the daily answer, most of it is ordinary secular things, so I do not say.
As a kid who knows how to say that, and we sometimes want to silver but not sure how to say that. Those are truly respectful, we do not regret it.
These are the examples that we learned in the first instance, to make a correction to remind ourselves.
The more the mind learns, the more learned it becomes. Do not think that the things I learned now do not need to learn anymore, not that! There are things we have already learned, but when we learn again, there are more new things, more book reminders and benefits.
In short, people want to try their books, should reduce the three groups of seven, talk about jargery junk waste of time in vain, sometimes bring his genius, loss of virtue.
Like Zen monk in Quang Hieu pagoda. They were born in Vinh Gia, at a young age also have serious personality, not like the noisy place (that is the baby Bodhi available from baby). The father found it strange to let go home.
After leaving the family, Van Phong Van Phong in the village to compete in the monastery, living frugally, often sitting not lying, eating a meal, not wearing silk, all year only wearing a loaded shirt.
Here is the achievement. Because in simple pictures, the mind is busy waiting for more.Often sitting is not usually sit meditation, do not wear good clothes just put in all year round so no worries. And we now have many needs, want anything must be comfortable, lacking is not tolerable, to create the gas that is not good.
After, he went to Germany Thieu Duc. Professor asked:
- Three realms not legal, where to find the heart? Four capital not, Buddha where the head? So where do you look to see the Sangha?
Brother replies:
- Today defeated him.
He said:
- What?
New monk flipped out the incense stick out, then right that the National secretly received.
One day, you see the Flower Adornment to the paragraph: "Where the body is not in place, where there is no place attached, where France has no place. The past is gone, the future has not arrived, the present is empty. Right then he suddenly entered the course.
We see the ancient people are very confidential, always keep the mind so that when reading the business mind is always special. I am going to spend more than 10 days.
After 10 days, he found the body in the morning gently light, clear the deep color.
Trung Y Vuong heard the virtues of the teacher admired, invited to Thanh Thai pagoda in Viet Chau. But he does not like to work, usually just sit still in the room as the import.
One day, in the monastery see two monks standing on the banister in the main hall talking, the guard angel, standing listening to the ears look reverent. After a while, I saw the devil coming in to scold him, sweeping away his footprints like scorn.
After his departure, he came to inquire about the two monks at that time and said something like these happen. Two new real friends said that initially two people discussed the Dharma, but then all the Buddha Dharma talk and then talk about the secular, so that the new demon spit, sweeping sweep footprints look scornful cheap.
It is the experience that we learn from the past and remember to check yourself carefully. Because we do not know the surrounding, especially in the colon are the legal guardian gods or the legal guardian for the cult. If our vows are legal, lawful, the good deeds reverent guard very well. On the contrary, the birth of the spirit of secularism that these gods leave, the devil will come, but the devil is not good for us. So do not think we do but nobody knows.
When he heard about it, he said:
- There is no such thing as still, so that the master of the drum up the road to say that in vain?
Since then, his life has never discussed the secular.
When the president, tea-spit finished, the tongue is still soft, color like red lotus does not have decay.
This is a lesson that reminds us to be very careful about the mouth, so we talk less, less talk junk.
Here, Quy Son Son reminded the monk to avoid the head of the secular talk, making the mind in vain, the damage to his virtue, causing demons to despise. At the same time, human beings are unhappy, are not good.
"Then a happy race, not happy is the cause of suffering."
That is because ignorance, crazy island so we keep worrying about the joy of the time to suffer the suffering of thousands of years, sabotage or not. For example, happy to eat delicious, nice to be at home high door wide, sit in the car for fun to go there, or fun to consume comfort. It is the joy of thought, contrary to the moral and then suffering long suffering without good. So this is what he said is a happy race, not happy is the cause of suffering. That is the temporary fun, temporary, happy end will be suffering, must know carefully.
Formerly there are monks named Huệ Man, They are in the Book Pagoda in Ich Chau period Chu. As a young monk who did not worry about spiritual cultivation, just like the trade of exchange. Also know that should be kept in charge of the warehouse, and often take their own consumption. Taking care of their fabric store, he also reduced the means.
Then he fell ill, then fell into the abdomen of a buffalo to pay debts. When the buffalo born, its shape is large bright, the horns are beautiful, so everyone loves to feed their own. At that time, the buffalo had to pull the bamboo car to the side of the mountain, and it was exhausting and exhausting. At that time, there was a monk in Mien Chau who, unlike ordinary people, had a horizontal line of worship, was on his way to the Israeli city, and saw him exclaim: "This is human, not a buffalo! "
He grabbed the buffalo horns and asked:
- What does it look like?
At that time, the buffalo tears tears down. We know that everyone is very merciful, told his disciples Hue Man. Practitioners should be together to bring money to redeem the buffalo, then buffalo to stop eating a few days and then die.
It is a story to show clearly that a happy race, not happy is the cause of suffering.Before being cut and then spend comfort, but know the cause and effect clearly!
Listen here and then we see how much their consumption is to be careful, do not let as Quynh Son said here, do not have to enjoy a fun race in time and then suffer long after This, regret not catch up! Remember the "happy is the cause of suffering," now let loose for fun to wear, do not think about later suffering many lives called repentance is not timely. Only the joy of defilement, the joy of enlightenment to live with the true dharmakaya, that is the true joy, must choose that joy.
"Many pursue the ceiling, never wake up again."
I wake up people do not love anymore, so say many chasing naked never wake up again. How many lives have passed because of delusions of running to the ceiling so new rolling, sank samsaric birth suffering in three realms up and down, to today that not enough?
We are afraid of fear, because we have no celestial eye, or not have to remember all life was not so afraid. If you really have to remember your past lives, you will be afraid. At that time there is more desire, but to take care to overcome. At present, we also have good charms to know how to cultivate, listen to the words promptly reminded to wake up carefully and wake up again.
Thus, today we are ordained as the followers of the emancipation. Exiting the ceiling is beyond the ceiling. Yet not awake? What else? This is the point that you want to remind.
We have many chasing the nakedness, slavery under the love, loss of freedom. It is like being guilty of a guilty good where to go, then go there, so there is fun in it? So we cultivate to reinvent ourselves, not to enslave it, to open the yoke of slavery, to live freely for freedom.
When we look back, when we are attracted to love, we lose all energy, lose all wisdom, weakness so weak that only to bow to it and then how to wear. At that time, no one said anything but said not hear, think is hard but it is so weak. It is a must to turn to have a strength to rise, not in that direction.
He reminded us that we have the power to move forward, not weak to lead it. This warning is for people to pursue the ceiling. That means learning to turn back like the teacher Thuan in Bach Duong once said: "If people think of religion as thinking about love, it is certainly the Buddha has long ago."
To think of the news is to follow the ceiling, led by it; If you think about the same religion, then the practice will soon.
But what do cultivators now think about? Interruptions flicker. New thinking about the little bit is to prevent being dragged thinking about the ceiling should soon forget the direction. Because of long-term suction, eat deep in the person should not be deliberately remember but also remember. The more you practice, the stronger and the more you become, just like writing, once a bold statement. Every time it was given to him, it was recalled. Now here is the turning back to think about the direction as well as thinking about the bare not remember but also remember, then quickly enlightened. So, we have to switch back, cut off the charm, not follow it.
In Studying, we must exclude the seeds, not the seeds. Bringing the seed into it, it sowed into the savage, like seeds of grass seed that are not visible in the earth, but it rains down and it sprouts. Prompt to all how clever each person has a strong desire for love as well as desire for love, thus ensuring the path to achieve his direct not difficult.
So, do not ever advocate on this one, to say it straight to say I want, I like, to know honestly get that error, then know that crazy island that transfer. So when learning these words wholeheartedly, deeply touched by his words, the more the reading, the more new, not the old.
"The time has sunk, the five months gradually, over-use, the more profound benefits. Many years do not think to let go, the more storage capacity to maintain the illusory.
He said that the monk who let the time pass by five months, and then to worry about life, the benefits of more and more nutrients do not leave, only the heavy pole, just like the elephant mired. The elephant was heavy and it went into a muddy place so it sank.And as soon as the more it sinks, the more you die, the more you die!
So, too, if you do not know beyond, rise up and let it sink like an elephant bog down, then more and more fall down to death. That is many years to think not let go, the more loaded the more and more weight can not be freed. Therefore, the liberation speech that more and more tied up, not see release at all.
We check back to see the shame. New arrivals at the temple to carry bags with some clothes, at a time carrying the car is not over yet! So here Quy Xo remind people to know the need to be awake, do not worry too much benefit is just busy because of this illusory body only, not meaning what. If there is no body, there is nothing to worry about? Give it to him, give it a go, give it a go, give it a happy, this is also because of this illusory color, because there is nothing to worry about.
But what about this illusory color then? What is left? It's just that the empty stomach is empty, does not mean anything! So when one looks at the wolf to remember carefully: the one that we dearly care for, the tit for a long time, the last is just that bad. Actually, it touches the eyes, but does not hide. Will our life be just so much?
As the story of Zen Master Thach Song Cung, who inherited according to Zen Master Hoang Tri - Chief Justice in Heaven. During their stay, he passed all the big and small positions in the Institute. One day, he came back to visit his mother, his mother is not a mother is not trivial.
Visiting mother visit, the mother asked:
- You go to the cost of capital because of the birth of parents, but often because of the master, if you do not understand the cause of the cause will cause us in the gold stream.
She reminded me to go to the monastery because of the parents, the people in the temple do the bosses ..., also know if not understand the cause and effect will cause her to stay in the gold stream.
He said:
- For the ordinary, you do not dare to contemplate. Though it is like a lamp, a torch is shared by everyone, and you do not care for me.
The mother said:
- But when you cross the river, can you keep your feet wet?
A lightweight sentence but weighs a thousand pounds, not fit. What a beautiful mother.Such a mother, must have such a child. This mother loves her and reminds her very respectable.
Do we hear these words have sweat removed? Heard her words "You cross the river that is not wet feet yet?", Only then that I see sweat sweat rather than medium.
That is wading through the stream, not sitting on the boat. Sitting on the boat from the wet easy legs, but wading through the river to keep feet wet, how to keep? That is hard.Consciousness question is born mind?
We live to serve all but not the mind, it is not easy. This work is not a lifetime. A mother's gentle voice that we do all her life is not finished. What about us today? Sometimes when you sit in the house, you do not need to wade through the stream, but also wet your feet. These are the places we have to thoroughly experiment to eat deep into the heart to wake up. Each person needs to be very alert to his or her self, not for the sake of material gain, resulting in the death of monks. That is the thing to remember.
When it comes to contemplation, we have been deceived by this zipper so much that it is not good. It requires one, the other, the other, to force it in the direction it has to create sin. Finally out of breath, he left himself outside the graveyard, and karma and guilt forced him to die after receiving painful pain! So we have not got eyes, that is blind!
Quy Son dangling a whip too strong, but do not know whether anyone here yet? To the province that care, not follow the love and then buried under it, it is regrettable!
These are the heartfelt words of sincerely hearted. The more we hear to the bone marrow, so be sure to take care of tu, not think of anything else.
Master teaches, premonition monks: "Progressive self, tam often not enough.
Here you mention the Master, the Buddha. Buddha is only a guide, the rest is we have to go, must practice to have practical benefits, not completely relied on the Buddha outside, so he called the Buddha as a teacher.
He reminded the Buddha to teach the monks are to repair his body and mind to practice progress, how to achieve the liberation of enlightenment, that is important. As for the ordinary things such as eating, wearing, sleep, always know enough, not too demanding, less demand as much as possible time to progress as well. So, the Buddha taught monks are pretentious tam often.
Monks in the true sense as the Buddha taught is the Mendicant, ie begging. Buddhist bowl to go begging begging is called gas, which means that the bowl is not too large, only the food just use their own, but not over.
When begging, get something to eat. Every day please be full, eat enough, every day asking for the lack of food must also be lacking. That is when the alms to the distant people are in need, or many people begging, people give less, not eat enough, also bear without demanding.
Buddha must beg for class, go home, not to choose the rich to leave the poor. When you are ready to use, do not apply for two bowls. That is enough to eat.
When they wear cloth, they throw them away, pick up clothes, wash and dye them and wear; Sometimes the fabric is wrapped around dead bodies thrown outside the graveyard, picking up to wear. So there is no greed. The prosperity of the beginning-momentum must perform this well as well.
Sleeping too, the Buddha taught the sleep of former monks do not have as comfortable as we are now, sometimes you sleep in the mound, or forest. Later, there is a monastery, but the building is simple, not willing to build on their own. But not in a place where housing often changes because of not being attached to the place. Thanks to that, the ancient people only to progress the religious practice, so they soon attained enlightenment. Since all the time is always applied elaborately practiced, there is no time to take care of food, sleep, sleep.
Now the monk is now demanding many needs that demand according to the ego. So that the Patriarch reminded the Buddha that monks have to take care of themselves, walking the monk, eat, sleep, sleep must know enough, not too demanding. Taking the problem of birth, death, suffering, the base work, that is the key.
We read that the ancient wisdom of spiritual practice when there is no time to cut nails, no time to wipe his nose, they are so careful. Looking back at the monk now more anxious to care for this body should take time to study a lot. Check out how much time a person has spent on food, clothing, sleep?
Day 24 hours, sleep 5, 6 hours, it is reduced. Sleeping at 10h to 3h15 is less than five hours, plus a six-hour nap for six hours. Every day we sleep 6 hours, a quarter of the time. By the way, we spent the fourth part of our life. If people live 60 years, then sleep for 20 years. So we have wasted 20 years doing nothing! That's just sleep talk.
In the morning, lunch time is more than an hour, plus washing dishes, and a little afternoon for two hours to eat. Then, bathing, washing together is more than an hour.Then go out and talk for an hour, it's a third of the time.
A life of sixty years wasted decades. Two, three decades for eating, wearing, sleeping, but still not enough! That is about cultivators.
If you are a person, how much time do you have to worry about eating, partying, watching TV, the press? So check the time left for human life is not much!
That's so good to see the regret, but not normally see all. But we do not know how much time, living a little more to have more time for yourself to practice is more precious, this is what the Buddha taught very carefully.
The Buddha created 12 virtues-momentum for the ascetic decision. The head of the family-momentum must sleep the tree, where the mound, the day to eat a meal, old clothes ragged ...
Talk about the day to eat a meal but only eat the food in the bowl to please. As you go to get in the bowl, when the pagoda is more people are not used, only eat in the bowl of his request. If there are only white rice that day to go to the headquarters must eat white rice, not eat more Buddhist dishes, so carefully.
Eat finished to stand up, do not put anything into the mouth, as if that day. But not eating out to see what people give what is delicious to eat a little more, not so. Twelve happy moment - momentum must keep so, so the tu easy to escape, easy to direct.
Today we check that we are much more than the ancients. But still not enough, sometimes even demanding. Check back to see how our moral direction ?! Know how to be ashamed to reduce demand!
The monk who has no education, no worries, forever worried about this need, the end of that need is to nourish the bad news, but nothing has been created, then must bear.New frightened shudder, fear for myself to take what to pay for the donor here? So, this is to remind us!
In the story of Dac Lam Tuyen Thanh Dao Ca, Truc Lam recounted his life when he was in the mountains? As a king, as the most people in the world, but when you go to live is very simple: Do not go kao, do not go horseback riding, clothe, drink spring water, eat food on the mountain. Say:
Bring it on,
The scene is empty,
Immaculate practice,
The paper is oak.
That is to take refuge in the deserted forest scene monkhood practice; Wear a piece of paper or a rough cloth and patch it up! Until "This body does not manage, hungry meal". And we are now mostly religious people, then there is a need to demand too much, compared to the tsunami they see the appointment?
Study, we need medicine Buddha's teaching, well known enough to spend time with moral progress, that's "the main duties of the ordained" , means little to know enough, not demanding needs Many to take time to practice their own.
In the Diary, the Buddha said: "Monks and novices, life expectancy food as medicine. That is to teach the monks when eating food should be considered as medicine should not be so engrossed.
" Whether good or bad, there is no more mind, only help the body out of hunger and thirst." Eating is like taking medicine to eradicate hunger, not anything, not on that the birth of the mind deliciously different, add is the more unhappy.
" As the bee sucked nectar, it only sucked on the pistil without damaging the hymen and incense. Monks, too, are offered to self to rid the suffering, not much demand to lose the good of people. To be worshiped by Buddhists is to help us except the hunger and thirst, not to take much to lose the good of people. It's about eating.
As for sleep, the Buddha said: "Monks and nuns! In the day, concentrate on, early and near morning also do not ignore. In the middle of the night chanting to destroy the evil industry, to increase the good karma, not because of the coast to make a bed of sleep, there is nothing. The Buddha taught the monk, the mind must be diligent practice French heal not let time pass. That morning, in the middle of the night, near the morning also take time to practice. Cultivators must have the right view, such as eating, wearing, sleeping as a temporary means, helping the body survive to practice, not to care for it, anxious to eat, sleep.
Here, Quy Son Son reminded the Buddha taught to remind the monks want to progress to repair themselves, is often not enough tam.
Also " The for this because such passionate endure, day after month the first moment was silver."
People of the life in accordance with their love, do not know the fake of this body.Currently temporarily borrowed it without understanding so new because it is interested in eating, wearing, sleep, and forget the precious time passed by not find it, look back at the hair is silver is not good. When it comes to returning to its true face, it is the lower body and then the graveyard, so is not it?
Checking every day, we take care of it for this stuff, it wants to eat something in the same direction it; He also slept with him in the afternoon, but eventually he returned his true face to the wolf. If you go away but also lucid, looking back to see the awakening consciousness or something? But it's not easy, it's the career!
Right now, we are wise to see other people know you. Seeing people finally end up in the cemetery outside the graveyard, I know myself. The truth is not touching but not seeing, but why do people keep ignoring? That is the point that the Patriarchs remind us to remember, not absorbed in eating, wearing, sleep. Who knows how long life? How long? And how healthy are you? So it is better to try to make use of the time it is here to progress.
In the Dhammapada, for example, the Buddha ordered the monk to eat and then worry about not knowing that only seven days to die, so the Buddha came to the scene, said the verse:
Oh! teach not to love,
Insects, snails, mussels,
Nesting in impure,
Pleasure or embrace.
Have not been hurt,
That mind like sick child,
Before the accident,
Come back to sleep.
"The poster has not heard the beast, must broadly ask the prior information. He said that the monk only needs rice.
That is the new study after, not only the intention to cultivate religious career, then to inquire diligently to advance to know the path. The monastery is not clear but not afraid to ask, worry about eating, sleep, where will the religious life go?
So, Quy Son Son whipped a whip to wake up: "He said that he came out here is just to eat rice, dress or not?" To go to the pagoda must also be to eat rice clothes to wear! It is a whip for a whip, do not know if anyone heard the pain or not?
So each person has to check himself out for what? Is it because the rice is wearing clothes? They are reminded that they have to go home to practice, pray for salvation, not because the food to eat clothes are different people life!
A Thai monk once said, "In the days of Zen monks Ajahn Mun and Ajahn Sao, the life of the monks was very simple. It's less complicated, less hassle as it is today. " Around the middle of the 20th century, he lamented that, in our time, now is the 21st century, the century of civilized material.
"On that day, the monks had little outside work and only performed some form of ritual." Now the practitioner contacted many outside, the form of rituals and parties, the festival is enough, it takes a lot of time.
"They live in certain uninhabited forests, where they can devote themselves to meditation practice, where they are busy. At that time people rarely see the expensive items that compared to today it was a trivial thing. " In the past there was no such thing as money, no television, refrigerator, fan ... life is very simple. The life of the monks at that time was simple, to the point that there was almost nothing to own, so nothing to much.
"The teachers took bamboo pipes for drinking water, and made other ordinary items for themselves. Sometimes lay people come to visit. Everyone is happy with what they have and nobody expects or expects anything else. They lived and lived with the breath of meditation. " Live with the breath of meditation, not with living things.
"The teachers have accepted life with so many difficulties, lack thereof. Medication is not available as it is now.
When someone has malaria to ask for medicine, the teacher often says, "You do not need to take medicine, try to maintain the practice is also a cure." Thus, all are medicinal plants whose roots have been rooted and grown in the forest. " That means everyone is a medicine for yourself, because there is medicine to drink, simple life like that!
The practitioner is now full, but because too full should be weak patience.
"In such an environment, the teachers used perseverance and endurance. They do not complain, worry when sick, sick. Today only a little headache, runny nose a little you may have used drugs or have to go to the hospital. He said that this situation is like ours today, but more so.
And dressing up " Sometimes the teachers have to walk from ten to twelve kilometers to beg for alms." We are at the place of cooking, and you have to walk for miles to get alms!
"In the morning, you can depart at sunrise and return about 10 or 11 noon. The alms are usually not much, can be a little rice or sticky, a little salt or some kind of fruit.Sometimes only rice without food is not a problem. Life is so natural, no one complains about lack or tiredness of illness. They not only do not complain but learn how to protect themselves. They practiced in the forest with all their patience and endured the many dangers lurking around. They have to deal with the many wild and aggressive wildlife that live in the jungle, as well as the austerity of the mind and body in the practice of head and shoulders for a painting. The patience and tolerance of the monks at that time was wonderful. Today, the situation forces us to face directly with many problems, compared to before, people only know how to walk, then there is the carriage period, but these masters do not have ride horse".
Compared with the past, people know walking and then progress to the use of vehicles called pull cars, which are carriages, carts.
"And now people use modern cars, so the desire and ambition is increasing. To this day, if the car does not have an air conditioner, people will not use it. They can not go if the car does not have air conditioning. This shows that human virtue and patience become weaker and weaker. The norms of meditation and practice are becoming increasingly loose and serious; To the extent that we feel meditators nowadays only follow their own ideas and hobbies. Then when the class goes ahead they tell the life of the old days, it seems like you are listening to a myth or myth. "
That is what they told us to compare with the life of the current cult, to reduce without demanding too much and then forget about the practice of his.
Remember the words of Quy Xo Son want to remind: "If people just indulge in eating, wearing, sleep do not stop, the day after a month, It was said before, that the ordained only demanded rice. Today we check whether we have learned the only fun or not, then go out for religious or ordained because of rice? It is not good to be rebuked by the rebels, it is shameful!
"The Buddha first created the law to open up new entrants, rules dread, clean as snow ice. "Harmonizing," nudge the first, small law to pick up all bad things.
The monk reminded the Buddha of the law to open up new people to religion. Laws that are nuns, including the posture and precepts, is the beginning for newcomers to practicing to prevent sin, so called to correct all bad things.
At first, the mind of a new person like a wild buffalo, if there is no restraining order, it is clothed in grass. Therefore, it is necessary to know the precepts to keep them safe, so do not underestimate the rules and dignity.
The samsara must learn 24 postures and 10 precepts. Monks have 250 sex, 3,000 posture and eight etiquette. Keeping three thousand dreadful, eight etiquette, as if every gesture of action must be done in control, not let go lung, put on rough. So three thousand dread, eight etiquette is that every gesture, every movement is living under the law, there is control. Do not think that meditators do not need the form of posture, while the mind is still uncontrollable mind, do not worry about the form, the posture is more coarse, more when we Deceiving myself that person is not good.
Just as I was in the beginning to memorize the recitation of the verses in the Buddhist monks and practical applications in the action, found to have a lot of awakening. Today, he also often go to work as a slack, tuition to go to the ordination of the law but not sure to use.
Our father reminds us in every action is to read the meaningful post with that action. As I wake up and walk down to the bed, I read a verse, wash my face, read a verse, go to the toilet and read a verse.
As soon as we wake up want to step down to read the shelves without hurry to set foot down, and we often go down the cliff, make people lying on their feet, it is lacking suspicion. At the toilet too, that is, each action has a reading to help the mind to return to mindfulness, support for concentration later. Therefore, monks have a great benefit, not small. I do practice meaningful, have clear results.
If we practice with a sincere mind, it helps the mind to ease the concentration. If the action is comfortable, into the rough and the mind is also lung. Now look back to the majority of fraternity is somewhat slightly omitted about the majesty no less. Even the great grown up is also missing, this is the thing to revise.
For example, monks just go running, lose the posture, then the mind has no control. If you recall, just want to step foot, you must remember that the monks must have a posture. Then monks that sit cross-legged, then the mind is where to go, or the road crowded with the secular or the eyes glanced east, glance that the majesty is also absent also practice, there are also Practice, then have control.
According to the law, the monks have to look down without looking out, not looking back, glancing east, glancing west. Nowadays, the vehicle should have a lot of vehicles, so the master of the car must also have the majesty of the teacher, so whoever goes with me, I often talk about it.
Because I am a teacher, running a car must have a different style from the secular, that is the personality of the cultivator. I have the charm of sitting on the car by many riders, as well as fraternity monks and novices as well as other people. I find that the people who run their car are cooler, more loving than a cultivator. So we have to know to have control ourselves.
If the Buddha was alive, he would also have to do the law for those who listen to cell phones, the drivers, so surely, because the Buddha did not have such things, he did not rule.
This Quy Xo reminded that the Buddha pre-fabricated the law to open up new entrants, have the rule dread clean as snow ice. Then there are the "offenses", which are used to keep your mind open, and to prevent sin.
"Hold on", the word is just stop, hold is hold. Stop not doing it is morality. For example, we are not killing is the morality. No lie is morality.
The "offense", as the offense. Lying is a crime, calling it a crime.
We must communicate these spells to guard the precepts; What to do is to sin, to know to stop. If not, many times broke the law or arguments for defense anymore. Therefore, they reminded the monk must learn to learn pine. That's about Thanh Van.
For the Bodhisattva is sometimes stop is a violation, but the refreshing is maintenance.For example, if you are suffering, you can not help but help. We need to understand these spells to do the right thing.
"Each small law, in order to correct all bad things," that is, monks have to keep 250 precepts, each to prevent a mistake that is correcting a bad thing.
Understand then, you have to learn the rules dread, the rules for smooth, so that no mistake is not good. However, we also need to wake up to keep our mind, which is the main. The precept is to keep the body, but the root is to keep the mind as the main place.
In short, the first step in the direction of the law is the barrier to prevent sin, so the monk is not despised.
"Where the law school has not come to question, dai know how to know how to know how high?"
That is where the law school did not come to school, the foundation of the discipline is not clear, again learn to dance to the French upper leagues are afraid of being empty, be careful!
France means higher means only for the ultimate truth. Quy Son prevent those who say the shot, the basis of precepts are not clear, and many mistakes that go to say that subliminal reason that it is meditation on the mouth only!
See in the Ngu Lu story about Chi Feng in Hoa Nghiem Pagoda Ngu Van Mountain. One day, he went to Ph? Ng Hien to sit down and suddenly the god kneeled in front.
Asked:
- Who are you?
He said:
- I am the guardian world.
Asked:
- I worry about my previous offenses, do you know?
God answered:
- What are you guilty of, only a small fault!
Asked:
- What is the error?
God answered:
- The washing of the bowl is also the object of the master, the teacher often should not be so.
After that, the gods are gone.
From then on, he took water to wash dishes.
In the past, when you eat from the bowl, eat the dishes and drink them. Unlike people, eat to pass, drink tea with another cup. Every time we eat rice is eaten in the bowl and drink, called the cost of the donkey afraid to beat the donkey.
Here, the deity told the only error to him is eaten and the dishwasher is not empty. Many times in the temple to eat plenty of food, and then take care of indiscriminate littering.So the old two Han Son, the Dac Reincarnation of Bodhisattvas Van-enemy, Pho Hien in Quoc Thanh pagoda, want to warn the monks in the temple, so the general appearance like the rest, at the pagoda Wait for the monks finished eating the kitchen to take food left over and wash the filter to remove the bamboo tube to eat. They are the implicit reminders for the monks should know the savings of the patron. This is a scrupulous reminder for the kitchen, must know to be careful!
The above is the Quy Son To remind us not to overlook the precepts. And remember that although the small things that the gods see, do not think you do not know. Many times in the room closed carefully, then eat secretly not know where nobody knows, but god knows. Just start a thought is God knows and do not say anything to do. As the story of the two he raised standing on the railing talk secular, demon devils to rub the foot also demon knows. We must always be careful, do not think you do not know, that is what they want to remind.
In summary of this paragraph, Quy Quy Son warned that the religious can not ignore the precepts, must take that as a platform to move forward. Do not think meditation reading, see them hear a sentence immediately and then easily think no need to learn anything. Before that, they have to spend a lot of hard work, but books do not burn all.So I have to study.
"Unfortunately, a life to pass, after repentance hard to keep up."
He exclaimed to the faithful not to study properly, thinking only of the material enjoyment, dress, sleep, nourish this body so that the date passes without benefit. in the direction. When the ephemeral arrives, repentance is not forthcoming! The last time that can be pulled back, but the big age, health decline at that time also want to not like.So reminded not to have missed the precious time of their own, not smart, unfortunately the life of the past, after repentance hard to keep up!
This I have witnessed, not to say. Before Hanh Ve died in Changchun around 1993, only 39 years old, young. Before the priest in the city, as well as the story outside the caravan, after thanks to the coast to meet the Master of Buddhist monks to study in Ching Cheng. After the illness is severe, near the imminent loss, the teacher in the temporary loss is in the Lam Chieu Nirvana Changshu. When I was not lost, I occasionally visited, once he said that it is sad to see the late Superior, when young still in pain to waste time on the right place, now know the tu is a bit late. Then it is said to remind all to do well, do not let a bed of repent and repent soon enough.
"The teachings have never crushed, the color of human beings do not enlightenment? Then high to high age, belly belly high heart, not close to you healthy, just a horizontal spread, arrogant ".
Long time, Quy Son Son whipped each whip, every whip for the province.
Above is the whip for a whip to warn the precepts do not know, leapfrog, but here the charge of doctrine is not clear. Tu do not worry about studying the catechism of the story somewhere, to finally understand what? Or be a little complacent as enough, do not smart fall into the disease.
Zen Buddhism, though, says that "no scripts, foreign teachings," that is not written, outside the teaching, but need to reach that idea, can not accept the word.
That is not to break the teachings, but to awaken the learners to learn beyond words to achieve the deep thoughts of the Buddha.
So you study in the Tibetan, Tibetan, in the records that Zen is said to be independent of the script, but books of Zen Buddhism are many, such as Transmission, Weakness, Lunar Eclipse ... that is the symbolic of several sets of green, and the sets of Zen masters wrote as Quy Son Book of Zen Master Quy Son ... So although saying " extraterrestrials "without leaving the teaching, must see that idea. So here the monk Monk advocated Zen Buddhism or Zen Buddhist monk. People do not understand the religion that jump into meditation many times nothing, and then later on as much as shot.
If newcomers do not learn catechism; As the days went by, Quy Son said: "Then come high age, high belly belly high heart, not close to you healthy, just a horizontal spread, arrogant. I do not go to school at all, the temple is many years older but do not understand the teachings, heart to pay tribute, this is long tuition but the stomach is empty so will be scorned call is postmortem contempt. Also do not be close to you good to learn more, just a superficial, it is more sick.
The Buddha taught in the Dhammapada:
Not an Elder,
If there is silver,
The elderly only,
Called dumb old.
Buddha is not high age is the eldest, not the eldest is. There is a seven-year-old, but Arahants should be called elders. This Buddha taught people only high age then that is called stupid old. Buddha warned senior practitioners not to practice, do not have a high age, the head of which is called senior. Then do not be close to you good to learn more things or good things, just a horizontal spread, arrogant. But with whom?
This is also a whip that Quy Son Son whipped so hard for the empty heart that hugged, arrogant. Try to ask the precepts are not clear, the teachings are not clear, but what is the hint? So he cautioned, need to transform this virtue to not make jokes for the position, that is prevented.
"Do not understand the law, not completely hold, or loud loud voice indiscriminate. Without the glass of the upper level, the Brahmin group is different. Scoused bowls, eat up before, go back illegally, lose all, can not stand sitting, not mind moving people mind. There is a little bit of rules, dread dread.What to keep for the next, the new pupil where imitate?
Quy Son is just the basic evil of the lack of schooling. Discipline rules do not know the rules, dread. Therefore making the gesture speak crude, lose all the Tang, ie the teacher's behavior. This is not understood lawful to take hold of me? Then loud voices, indiscriminate talk, no glass of the upper middle, the meeting is messy, like Ba-la-gathering. Eat then bowl up bowl, stand up before ..., that is lost dread, no style of monks.
Try to ask the monks that speak loud, indiscriminate, like the rude secular, lose all the Tang. People look at the teacher lost faith.
That Quy Son reminds us to be smart to preserve speech, action, posture. Monks are not wanting to talk indiscriminately, because the teacher is different from the secular. As monks call me, this guy, this guy is worth it? If Buddhists do not listen to sure that the hands are not revered!
Here he speaks indiscriminately or loudly, loudly speaking, it is lost the majesty of monks. The loss of the faith of the Buddhist is just Blessed, just born his virtue. Then what is the new entrant to imitate to imitate here? What should I say to keep the posterior? For example, if you sit on a person and do not respect anyone, this is like a Brahmin gathering, messy and messy.
If you go running or running after you push ahead, it is true that you lose all order. It is because of not worry about learning rules, dread, if there is learning to take care is not so bad.
"Eat and wake up before, re-bowl the bowl, lose all the Tang." Right at the table, it is wise to keep mindfulness, control every gesture. And here is a bowl of spoonful noisy, eat in that state of course is a blessing meal.
It is important to know that in each of your chopsticks, each spoon inserted into your mouth, is eaten in mindfulness, in control it will be gentle but meaningful. So this must be eaten in a gentle manner, there is control, not nothing must rush, not afraid of people eat all the pain.
For example, four people, in a plate tofu cut into private, you have to know is to pick a corner only, people cut into a one-piece each. This one just took a piece off, afraid of the other people picking up, picking up another piece of it is the general greed.
Outside the world people say "eat pot, sit at the direction", is to look, not like to do. So only one of these meals, check back to what I have not done, say anything to subliminal, this is something to know.
This is to remind each person to self-check himself, to do the right law, have dread, decent rules and also help his mind less rough, less liberal.
What is that? That is, the body is always standing, sitting still not stand, standing still sit back, or foot movement, shaking his body ..., or stomping the set of memories to the next person; For a long time, the door closed and the mind was blamed. We must be careful in doing meditation.
As the story grows, please go down the mountain. The teacher did not say whether to give or not to say:
- He came to close the window for me.
The monk went to the door and made a loud noise.
The master said:
- No! Stay in three more years.
The monk heard the teacher said too happy to close the door and then go down the mountain, should emit strong sound, through which it is clear that the teacher is coarse, so the teacher said to stay in school for three more years. It's only closed for three years, to show meditation every second, not just on the podium. The closed meditation also, walking also meditation, the mosquito also meditation.
In the law has taught: "Do not get up to sleep the mosquito net, shaking the mind to move the mind to the next. Either get up first, then sit down quietly and step down to the next person to take her. Those are the majestic gestures that need to be learned.
The disciple of the Buddhist disciple who does not have the rules, dread what to use as an example for the next? So, each of you have to check whether you have a fault or not? Learn to remind yourself, and so see that the teachings of the Buddhas, patriarchs are always new, always new.
Monk's lawyer, Kien Nguyet, wrote the Vinaya Law, telling the story while attending school:
"- Once in Amien Giac heard the monk Giac Ngoo lecture Surangama, meet days-Vietnamese-style offerings, a tray of two people have four plates sitting opposite each other. Lawyer sitting together with the tourist increased, he just finished sitting on the chopsticks to pick up constantly not clean all the food, and not pick up soon!
When the boys finished, he went out the door and told his two friends:
- Later, if we have conditions because they work, the food does not count as much or less, they put in a bowl and then it is used for love. One is the posture of the monk is nice, next to godly people, but today as the increase of this monk lost, where else is the hungry.
This is a lesson to remind us. We must keep the rules, dread to not be ashamed of the monk has no virtue, no loss of religious beliefs of Buddhists.
"Just be reminded for then he said:" I am the mountain teacher. "Not heard the teachings of the Buddha to practice, to keep a sense of rude.
Here comes the expression of the people who do not know shame shame. It is true that when one is reminded of it, it is a pleasure. We have to humbly acknowledge the error, thank brothers for prompting, let us know the error that modify, it is true progress. Here, but not to repair but also protect their own faults. When asked by the friar, "I am the mountain teacher." Mountain Master does not need the form, dread, tu in the forest that!Always protect your mistakes. Is the mountain teacher is rough? Quy Son reminded that he is also a mountain teacher, but not so.
That's what I want to remind you. We have to know the sincerely sincere apologies, who reminds it is a pleasure for you, not be hug; Always low to fix, do not stick to your wrong self.
The Buddha taught in the Dhammapada:
If you see the wisdom,
Just fault and blame.
As the only buried place,
Be close to the person.
So close to people,
Only good, not bad.
That is to meet people only fault, just like the buried gold, it is too good!
It's hard to find in life,
You know how self-restrained.
To avoid criticism,
Like a gentle horse to avoid whips.
The wise man must be so, we must also, also need to live with the personality of the wise. Do not follow the style of the ruling that Quy Son said, not listen to the Buddha's teachings to practice, but keep a crude temperament, defending his fault. That is the way down, is closing the truth, closing the truth.
On the contrary, we have to choose the way up, the path to the gentle, ready to open the door to see the truth. That is what the Founder found out to advise people know smart to not do.
We learn to check ourselves, not to learn to denigrate people, criticize people may not be even more, they must bring more crime. Learn to cultivate, remember that! Next group:
"The understanding is because the mind is initially lazy, giddy gradually through the day. The time has passed in life, become the countryside.
He pointed out that the original error was due to lazy, refusing to learn, just buried his head in the food to go through the month, grow up to become the countryside. This is the result of lazy lazy mind.
This reminded the monk must learn to learn to prevent the lazy effect, the time passed to eventually become ignorant, do not do anything for the director.
"No doubt the old clustered clusters, meeting the ignorance. Post-graduate asked no words to lead. Even if the table is said to be unlicensed, or is often neglected after the birth of the ritual, angry heart, said a croaking.
Long live in the postman who saw the idea that the senior in the temple so new to ask.At that shame did not know how to reply! Though the answer is not related to the rules, then it is suffering. Due to lazy pre-lazy study, so when old age to meet ignorance, the postmodern asked no words to lead, despite the effort to talk tables, is also said to break the rules.
Then the postmodern contempt for saying no punishment, then immediately take the character of adults to blame them disrespectfully without knowing the fault is theirs. Or blush to cushion them, not asking to reveal more of the countryside.
These are the faults that Quy Xo suggested to prevent us. This is also an experience so that later you go out to meet people asked not respond, I do not understand yet, do not study carefully, do not say the need to say that I honestly say this I have not studied Reschedule the next time, then people are honest, the more they appreciate.
Here the team raised the case of people who do not know what is bad and their mistakes, but also bullying attitude is that the more exposed the more bad, that is more revealing his lack of education anymore. Quy Son reminded us carefully to prevent, avoid falling into that error. So we cultivate people to be honest, not to lie to people.
Here, the team pointed out the crude attitude of the lazy people do not study properly.He reminded and expected later learners to think to not fall into the situation as above.So sad! When I die I do not know where to go?
"One sickness is on the bed, all suffering is surrounded by force. Day and night worry, in the panic. The road ahead dim do not know about? "
That is, when the illness is heavy on the bed waiting to die, then all the suffering to the urge is not running away. Actually, no one wants to be like that, but whether or not want to suffer. Because the body is not self, it is not active. At that time new fear fear, day and night worry do not know what to take to deal here! When the death comes, the karma I have created appears, there is nothing to deal with, then do not know where to go? The more fear of losing self-control, the more fear, but the more fear the more mischief. So this is a great tribulation.
Come here to see his career long practice has no fulcrum, now how to be safe to leave, it is miserable! Should say that the road is dim before dim, do not know where to go! At that time no one to accompany the farewell, no one to make friends, alone to go alone nothing to look new to see the suffering. If even here to think about that, then there is no heart to let go, to neglect not to worry!
The fraternity carefully read in the Surangama to the later part about the dying person, the idea of going up, the sinking and the six delivery of the message of the six horrible.That is, the eyes see horrible scenes, ears hear the voices make up the mind, suffering the hundred, have nothing to master.
So right now we have to practice, to take care of progress to get clear steps, because this is the path that everyone must go through. That is, there must be death, must go. If you do not study, no good karma, the end of life is a great suffering. Dead in the dark, fears of panic, it is dangerous!
This is the Quy Son warns all practitioners must know to prepare themselves, but not to late to repent and not timely.
"From now on repentance sin, thirst to dig wells to keep up? I do not worry early, the old age many sins. Dying dying afraid of terror, flying birds flying, consciousness by industry. Like the debtors, whoever claims first, silk heart many, where the weight falls.
That is to know how to repent but how to keep up! Should be called new thirst to dig wells to keep up. Have to prepare before, while healthy and wise to take care of the practice to create a buoy for yourself, do not wait until the last minute then why.
At that time, no matter how much work to take refuge, how much more sinfulness to pull, the more confused the spirit, only suffering and suffering only! But who is this sin brought to me? Each person please check back to see where you need to do.
Starting from this minute has to do from the beginning, it is also timely, if to go to the weather later is late.
Here Quy Xo reminds the dying person, the wastage of a lifetime, how many fear, fear of dragging to call on anyone else. At that time, I was not afraid of old age, many old sin.
The practitioner tu tu liberation, that is Master Tran Tran. The rank of sergeant who comes to the ceiling that comes to the point of death must fold his arms folded fear, fear like this or not? That is what we need to think carefully to take the brighter steps.
Because to this time called flying birds flying, conscious mind by the karma. As a debt bearer, he leads his life under the realm of that world, no self-reliance at all, called total slavery by karma. At this heavy falls, whoever claims first; In the mind of the puppet, lost all self-consciousness to choose the right career.
The flying bird is flying in the air with the sparrow flying into the jar. Someone took a piece of silken silken gourd. By the time the piece of silk is punctured, the sparrow flies out.
He will seduce the spirit or the A-back-skin, while the body for the body, silky slice is for his life. By the time the network is full and then like a broken silk, wake up god. As the body of his warm, when the network is full A-back-to-skin immediately leave this body that followed the karma to give birth to another life. We are people who understand religious cultivation, then masterfully back to master.
In the source of Zen, Khue Phong explained:
"Q: As the enlightenment, do not finish the career, then after the network of spirituality will rely on?
A. All living beings have the nature of self-consciousness, not only from the innocent to the present never experienced. Therefore, the hope of accepting our body is that of our new, born new love hate, then according to the creation of karma, according to the new life report, birth disease, many death cycles, but the awareness in the body is unprecedented. birth and death As the dream was dismissed that the body is still lying on the bed, the capital itself is not where the slots are sent. The crystal is not dim, obviously often know, from where to go nor where to go. The hope of accepting many life as the Tanh is happy, happy, sad, smooth flowing. Although this is the truth that can not be resolved immediately, need to constantly consider the decline gradually.
He said that although he saw the truth, but this love is not right there immediately, so also to cultivate.
As the wind stops, the waves slowly start to coalesce, where one can practice a coherent life of the Buddhas. Should not take the form of his body, do not accept this identity. That is to remember the unconditioned, the silence of his body, do not take this body to himself.
Take the mind that your mind does not receive thoughts. The wisdom is called the mind, the mind that the mind, do not receive thoughts.
The idea if the initiator should not follow it, when the general network of natural karma can not be bound. It means that thoughts begin to arise but not follow it but to return to the spirit that is the wisdom. Then when the natural network is mastered again, not bound by the industry.
Although there are warm body that go freely at will, to human realm, the heavenly life. If you love hate hate life, you can not change the body parts, change the bad or change the rough. If the flow is small, all of them are clear, and only the Vajrayana is enlightened, depending on the force of the thousands of beings that are conditioned, called it Buddha. " If not freedom in itself. birth and death must remember the spirit of his wisdom, not follow the concept of death is also the owner. Even the warm body is also born again, but go freely or arbitrarily to the realm of heaven, that is also self-control.
So we learn to remember to progress tu, remember where you have the habit of living and return to the Tanh sense not follow the idea, according to the kill. Want to do this, right here must elaborately cultivate to deepen this seed, but wait until the dead, how to keep up? Thirsty to dig a well is late!
"Impermanence, meditation not stop, the network does not last, the time can not wait. Heaven three realms are not escaped, life itself like that life is not the same. "
Impermanence means death. Death always ready, always waiting for the opportunity that it leads us, no date waiting for anyone. So, said network is not long, time can not wait. So we have to always "put the letter on the head", always remember the death is not willing to let loose lung.
Just have a recitation of thoughts or thoughts, then remember to remember the word "Tu" to wake up, always always diligently deal with the devil is impermanent, there is no time to greed, angry, indulgent If you think there is still time, and still a few decades to die, then the concept of lunging intermittently.
If we remember carefully, then this will motivate us to stay awake and less traveled.Remember that all of us who are sitting here are sitting on death, and the mind is letting loose.
And here the Patriarch said that the death came can not date, waiting for it, so without worrying what else to do? Unless the friars are as elaborate as the master, the appointment of Pluto is seven days.
In the monk Yinchuan monk has the master, one day suddenly found a demon to take away. He said, "I do not have free time for the master, can I make appointment seven days later?" Devil said: "Wait for me to submit to the king, if approved after seven days will come, Just a moment. " Finished it disappears. After seven days, the demon came to find him not fully.
Actually, it was not until seven days that the master of this new monk, while working he also tu tu, elaborate rather than normal, but not mature enough, not enough effort. add another seven days. If you did not practice in the past, then it would be difficult for seven days to cultivate.
"Heaven three realms are not escaped," that is in these three worlds. Then "life like this life is not the same", that is to leave the body, but to go back and forth, lurking in the three realms, life is not the same, do not know when ever finished. Do not think so afraid?
We have to know that each time we experience the life of each other is a layer of warm passion, which superimposed a layer of warm passion that is stacked more layers of suffering. So, if we elaborate not deep or not to be born next generation will forget where to remember to return to the care, then create more new karma. Unless you elaborate carefully called accumulation of strong karma, the next birth will be remembered early. So there are seven-year-olds, eight-year-olds who do not teach, so it's early. Those are the strong accumulation of karma. When we remember early, we also had to create good conditions for him to return home early. If you do not meet the conditions that cover up, grow up not go to the family must be married and then do business, create new karma.
Therefore, we have to worry about the accumulation of heavy industry, for the deep, although not fully liberated, but the next generation, remember early and continue his way, not to stretch the road This birth, really happy what!
As the story of Arahanta Dhamma-sensitive in Ke Tan lived after the Buddha. The evidence of A-la-drought that is evidence in the mind, clean out of birth and death, the appearance is similar to the ordinary monks. He was in a mountain with three caves.
Then two of the monks from far away heard his reputation should come to worship.When we arrived at the cave at the bottom, there was an old monk dressed in an old-fashioned yummy burning fire in front of the kitchen. Two monks do not know who is new to ask:
"Where do you come from, Elder Dormant?"
Flame burner:
- In the room, on the top floor.
He pointed his hand. First layer above the third cave.
These two monks according to that only new find. When he arrived, he saw the fire sitting on the fire. Two new people are born suspected, think this is likely to increase.New says:
- Virtue is the noble, noble echoes throughout the realm-match-line, why bother to lower yourself to burn the oven like that?
Venerable Master Dat-ma-secretary replied:
- I remember to be born long suffering life, assuming to bring both the head and hands to be burned furnace, I also will because they rise without burning, how much less this body parts work burning What's worth?
He added:
- I remember long ago I was a dog hunger for five hundred years, and only two times eaten. It was a time when people drunk alcoholic vomit at the side of the road, I multiply by meeting should be a meal. The second time the dog was born in a poor family, the second day they married the husband and wife porridge (the nodule has a small mouth, big bellies) and then have to temporarily leave. I am hungry, so I put my head back in the noodles, when I eat full, then I will not pull out. At that time, the family returned, they found so angry that the knife cut off my head always. I remember having carried the dog for five hundred years, in which even though I have twice eaten but lost my life once. So think about the long-term birth, turn around in the five lines where birth is also suffering.So today I have to be afraid of hard work that is not willing to be the burning oven?
He recounted his past to alert everyone, because he is an Arahant so he has good communication, remembered before the 500 years of the dog that only twice was eaten.
What is the joy of birth and death in this reincarnation? Check back! We hear shivering for the birth of this birth and death. Do you want to spend long hours in suffering? Today, each of us is blessed as human body, plus one more blessing that is the practice, so if you do not worry will fall back, not afraid or?
Because we are born and then the warm love to forget all the previous life, if we remember his previous life has many encounters with such painful scenes, then the new shivering fear, worry not to keep up. Now I do not remember to think that I have a healthy body is proud. There are relatively good family birth, from small to grow up without hardship and go to practice; And later people did not meet the wartime miserable, living in suspense should be easy to bear mind lung. On the other hand, it is necessary to look closely at the suffering in birth and death, to take care of the big task, not to last so long.
So here Quy Xo Son reminded: "Do not smart and then the three realms have not escaped." That is up and down the three realms of life and life in it do not know when ever.
"The feeling of lament, the heart of the mercy! Can not be quiet, turn to remind each other.
Thinking here, Quyen Son sincere heart to everyone, so that must speak up to remind all smart to know again. See suffering as long life and death, so can not be implanted, but have to speak up but do not know if anyone heard? But keep on asking!
Some people have not believed yet, because they have not seen the problem of suffering long suffering, only see the present. But if people are thinking and then come back to experience, will understand, will understand the teachings of Quy Son, are sincere words remind each other.
If we re-examine, then we find that tu tu is liberation for himself, not tu tu himself freed him. But why should he kindly remind so earnest? It is truly merciful to remind each other! Understand that new compassion! Next:
" Hatred by the birth of precious statues, the way to the Saint gradually far, Buddhist teachings, many people enjoy" .
He was sad for his late birth in the precious period, the way to the Saint is far away, so many Buddhists, many people are happy.
"The statue," the statue is only for the French phenomenon. Dhamma is divided into three times: the Dharma, the Dharma and the Dharma. The same time, through the time of the Dharma to the legal period is relatively close to the main, to the end is always.
The word you borrow from the Chinese grapes: Manh, Trong, Quy. Strong is the head, The weight is the middle, the quarter is the end. For example: Strong winter is winter, winter is winter, Winter is winter.
So, how many years is his time? For over a thousand years, he also lamented that Buddhism was born, many people enjoy. If he was born at this time, then how much longer?
Dhamma is a good remedy to save sentient beings from the suffering of birth, to eliminate the affliction that is precious in the world but not often, but again, not to love!That's the point where you feel so sad!
While the Buddhist Dharma but the world is the focus of attention, although prevented also rushed so now I have a general reminder:
The door to open a few people,
Confusion closed to insert.
That is the door is open but few people go to, but the closed secret not to enter but to insert. To see that crazy island of human beings is so. So these are the true words of Quy Son Son reminded to all must awake progress!
In the past few years, in the Truc Lam Zen Monastery, many of us have realized that the spirit of cultivation is stronger than it is now. I remember the old days thanks to good conditions should meet the Dharma early, and soon clear this meditation. Even today, over thirty years ago, I did not dare to let go. Meanwhile, the fraternity now do not know how many people are brightening their big job but dare to enjoy! So if we take a closer look, what will be the end of his life, where will he go?
Here, the Coal Mineral Foundation is also to remind people to know diligently. At that time he also lamented, think of us today how will it?
Need to understand more, although have said that the time, the Dharma, Dharma Dharma that is speaking from time to time people, the law does not have. If we practice, and diligently practice, the Dharma will be transformed into Dharma. As today there are also enlightened people, not the door to full enlightenment, do not let yourself accomplish. This gives us more confidence to progress.
"Narrow view to see the narrow message to the next. If it is not clean pride, it is difficult to turn away.
This is the humble words of the Quy Son, he told his students here that he said the site narrow view only narrow. The purpose is to remind the learner to forget the self to learn the religious practice to expect a day of liberation, do not overhaul the self, but must be proud of pride.
You have to find yourself a lot of things to learn, do not have anything to put your self up high, living in love and not listening to anyone advised do not know mistakes to correct, so it's easy to go down It is difficult to avoid the fruits of suffering to yourself.
Because of cause and effect, I do not bring anyone. Today is enough grace to progress but not accept that grace that progress, so that pride barrier barrier and then sink back into delusion, regrettable!
Do not know how to listen to the remedies to progress, do not follow the way that I made mistakes and brotherly affection for reminding, not only did not receive the resounding return, said: "I know it! My thing to worry about, does not involve you, do not interfere with people. " That is the expression of pride, not so good.
Brotherly affirmative reminder error that refused to receive, again horny like fill, so that people do not remind, that is to make yourself more errors. Then the fraternity does not crave any more, that is, to drown yourself in deep sins, to go down paths. So be smart.
As the story Mr. De point Huizhou, is the disciple Zen Master Hui. Intelligent, smart, talented so he was assigned to hold jobs usually stay in the temple more than 30 years.
But the man who holds the habit of taking care of the cost of spending often. Also fraternal see so love affair bearing the result reminders, take care of the hair horn debt, he did not hear but also say arrogant style: "The whole year brought horns, this Chau is also carrying only one just pair. " So there is nothing to worry about. So who else can remind?
Soon after, when he met Cao Cao in Taiwan, his relatives, like Kha Kha ..., brought all the accusations of his deeds. He was accused of beating with stick, and then pursued secular. Before causality has not come, say arrogant style. When causality comes, what is not said.
Then he was hiding at the Institute of Chemistry, again suffering from numbness and limbs shrink like a hedgehog, stretching out. People see that pull his legs out, the more the pain. Over three years he died.
Son Am Tạp Luc said this story, then there is a comment : " Huui Chau used crude mind to accept work, then despise cause and effect, so say the whole year brought only one pair of horn . But to me, I think, in the epistle of the three long months, one pair and the other pair come, countless hours. Bring this pair of horns is only a year! "
That is in the three lines of evil, five months long, not easy as he said. One pair goes, the other pair comes, go for this pair, the other pair so that it will carry countless lives also, do not say a year only one pair only! That is the reminder to wake up to the next!
Because it is arrogant speech, but it is wise to listen carefully when the fraternity reminds them that the change is too good! Not only is not listening but also saying that.That is called benevolence causal, ultimately cause and effect, where to avoid! We must be well informed to prevent it.
So the practice is to know low, listen, not arrogant. This said if not clean pride, when the cause and effect is difficult to avoid.
"It is the renouncer who steps away, the mind is different."
Here, Quy Son reminds of the responsibility of the monk. The monk must have a noble direction called out of the ceiling, is to step away. It means that the renouncer is the one who steps up the steps, beyond the world, not to let the worldly affinity. Do not let your footsteps muddy down low, what is the meaning of the exit level!
Again, the mind must be different. This place he reminded sincerely, is the true monk, the mind is different, in the shape of the body to the heart.
The body shaved his hair, wearing a shirt dyed, casually wearing a denim jacket is not the same as secular. But in the temple then if not cleverly race under the fabric silk, the color of this one is not so different worldly. It's about form.
The important thing is to be transformed in the mind, to eliminate the habits of calculating thinking, secular thoughts. The mind must think according to the Dharma, according to the way of appearance; Contrary to negativity greed to go to the path to the ceiling, so the mind must be different.
If the direction that mind think more than love hate, the subject of such a worldly interests are different worldly people. Then where is the renunciation mind?
There is a story about an officer working in the palace for a long time. As long as he is older, the more he sees the minor disputes, the tricks of the underground to seize the status in the field of relations with each other. He is bored. Therefore, when he retired, he would go to a monastery far away from the capital and appoint himself here as no longer the distraction of secular people anymore. If you do not brighten the direction, then at least you are safe, no longer have to squeeze in the place like mud.
But in the monastery for some time, he discovered that he was gradually promoted to this position, the high position in the hospital. Then the old court tricks that he felt bored when the check it also rode up in his life is not good, but good that he saw.
So when he checked, he saw the bad thing, he said, "Oh, how come again? Before I was tired of those things, have come here to live is so safe, but now the same old? "
Then he decided to leave the monastery, into a rocky cave in the mountains, living simple as skilfully as a mendicant. Some people see the new reason why he replied:
- Where to go is still an old cow dung!
He was too bored, decided not to stick to that anymore.
It is a story in Zen Meditation which is also a lesson to remind, for the sake of the practitioner we need to meditate again. We must do to match the meaning of the mind different. The form of the body must also be different, the inner virtue must also be different to match the virtues of the monk, or otherwise very shameful!
Do not wait for long time to see that the world sentiment is not good at times. Do not clever the light where not seen but see the eyes for the reputation, bright eyes for five, it is shameful. That is the point that here Quyen Son want to remind.
Every fraternity always remembered the words of Quy Son Son warned that the monk must step away, the mind is different, to spend? To remain:
"Climbing the holy line, terrifying the ghost, repay all four gifts, save the three realms."
The duty of the monk is such heavy duty. The monk is a substitute for the Buddha to propagate the Dharma, so how to practice the holy line in the world. That is not to say this holy line should be called connect.
How to prove the liberation fruit is still here, so that people see the faith, then it is called the holy line. And proving the door of enlightenment is still open, so that the progressive people try to attain enlightenment liberation, which is called the connection of the holy line without interruption, without breaking.
The story of Ajahn Mun is the same. He read the sutras and read the book, thinking that his time would be the holy fruit or the door of liberation is closed. Today the Buddha's distance should only be blessed to sow the next life. That is the common view of many of his contemporaries.
After all, he thought it was impossible. He decided to find a way to prove that the door of liberation is still open.
Finally, thanks to the effort, he accomplished what he wanted and he also showed that the door to liberation is still open. That is also called the line of the holy line.
But if we are not in the mind, then how can we connect the holy line? These are the listening points and we need to check and remind ourselves to have the right direction.To do so, to step away, the mind is different, to connect the holy line, to terrify the ghost, to respond to four grace, to save the three realms. Otherwise, I'm not finished yet. Quy Son people continue:
"If you do not like that is the abuse of the row, say the empty action, the drainage of credit.
If the renunciant is not so, not the degree of exaltation as exorcist as Quy Son taught, then how worthy to participate in the increase of security. Do not dexterity action is not ethical, then how to spend the pilot forum?
In the explanation of the "increase", there are four categories Sa-subject:
One is "winning the Sa-subject," the Sa-subject has been won as the Buddha, Bodhisattva, Thanh Van and Prathom.
Second is the "Sa-subjective market", "market" means to teach, that is Sa-subjects bring the moral victory just tell people, as Sreifiyi Sutra lectures, teaching should call is the Sa-Patial.
The third is Sa Sat line, that is Sa-content can keep the network, living the righteous life as Ananda took the wisdom to make life, to make his life. It is also called "sa-tam activity", is to lead the way. These people can be subject to affliction, diligent practice Dharma, have the power to nourish their intellectual property.
The four are "Saravan Saras", that is, Sa-subject pollution. As the crimes of French law is transgression, also called "sectarian Sa-subject. That is the Sa-discarded, blameworthy.
Then there are four classes:
One is "there is a rising body but no wisdom" then the Buddha called "si"
The second is "there is this tongue that do not know the sermon", the Buddha called the
"azaleuca", ie goat mute, tongue that do not know the sermon for people.
"azaleuca", ie goat mute, tongue that do not know the sermon for people.
Third is "like increase without having to increase, like the custom that does not have to", the Buddha called the "try to increase". That is the rat master or called a layman. I mean layman is not a layman but he is not a teacher.
Four are "pure net", ie people live honestly legal.
The Great Commentary has four categories "Increase":
One is "real increase", ie net increase, live the true truth.
The two are "growing monks", ie the monks who have the moral precepts practice but still sinned, and then repent.
The third is the "increased sex", ie, the monk stupefied, do not distinguish good and evil.
Four are "increased tu do", ie the monks, do not know shame.
Each of us must choose for ourselves a right direction, which is the rising class that is worth the meaning of "Increase" that the Buddha taught. Do not let him rise to say hollow action, the drainage of credit; Not to be credited is to pay debts, not despised!
"Living in the past did not move a step, looming a lifetime to take refuge."
Although he is a monk who did not practice the law of the monk, there is no progress on the way to the ceiling. So called the place of living in the past did not move the steps, that is the same as the old. The monk in the temple who lived as a secular mind the day before, there is nothing to transform, to increase so say no move step.
It means that in the direction of living still according to the secular habits, greed is still not left, negativity is still not transferred, then the bad karma is still the same, so the monk to do? Not ashamed stars?
Therefore, the Venerable Trung Phong reminded his disciples:
- Birth and death have no place for him to escape. A large birth and death in the skin itself, bone jam, meditation without interruption. Because this mind does not give up, the bed towards thousands of Buddhas want to swear strongly. Until today hit the bottom three y but called the flow. But the same is still the same, where recognition before their eyes are not broken, move a little instant mind, thought. All is to help add birth to the tightly bound, forgot even the original direction of the monk. Like the confusion like that, bear thousands of lifetimes prolonged samsara. For what benefit is there?
Trung Phong warned the monk to practice without worrying about the great birth and death, follow the old habits, the little moment of birth and prolong life in the birth of samsara, Reciting the oath to the Buddha with the team becomes a lie. Whereas the living places, the thought stays the same. That is what reminds me to be ashamed to transform, to rise on the way out; Eliminate old habits, bad old bad habits worthy of the liberation of liberation. That does not shame the way you went. Should be said that living in the past did not move the foot dimly a lifetime to take refuge?
He also has a warning about the monk that:
- Most of the people when they were ordained, their aspirations were small but more or less religious. But then gradually get the reputation of pollution, then build the clinic, planting gold teeth, buying houses, servants, store money, all the world to do, the coast is like other people the whole world. In the Buddhist scriptures said: "There is a person who left the religion, then three-week Tian Ma fear. When a monk turns out to be a non-secular, then Ma Ba-week drink wine congratulations.
That is, we leave the monster is afraid of loss of attachment, and then I pull more people leave home so it is afraid. But when the family and then turned into a non-secular, then drink wine congratulations to have more dependence.
- The first Bodhisattva to learn the first thing must know this new. I have met through an ascetic ascetic on the mountain, just down the mountain there are ten men and women Buddhist to refuge for offerings, gradually lost all the power, busy dust bag, bad thingsThe old saying that after leaving the family and then need to leave home affliction, must cut off the boundary condition is to leave home after the family. Previously known as the monk before leaving the family is easy, leaving home after the family is difficult. I am very careful about this, very anxious day and night, afraid of mistakes as above.
It is a loving reminder of the virtues of the virtuous ones, the profound experience. So we learn to see, to remind ourselves, the scene of life to be worthy of the righteous. Not to live in the past did not move a step, then finally dim a lifetime do not know where to rely on. No place to work what to take what to take refuge, to make room for yourself.That is very shameful, but also very worrisome for the cause and effect again!
"More generous, serious look, look good, good by nature before planting, new sensation results are unusual now."
Come here, Quy Son encourages us today to be brought up with the solemn rise of the "Road to the Sangha". This one, people look at, is not coincidental, that is, there is cause and effect. before the cold.
Understanding it will encourage us to have more faith. Meaning that the previous life has also planted a good home, so today I feel this retribution. This is called extraordinary retribution, not easy, casual. But since we have no eyes, we can not remember everything, but to the truth, it has cause and effect.
Try to look a little bit to see just the ordination is not easy, in addition to the family is well received. If we have not planted a good life before, we can not do it. Sometimes we do not carefully, so it is good condition and not cherish it so it is unfortunate!
Looking back, there are so many people, also have the mind to go home, but then this coast charm is impeded, not done. As the Venerable Master declared that he was unfaithful, there were many who feared him to rest and did not know what else to do;But since then some people have not left home. At first sight is not easy, there is this coast charm to stop again. Or when it is good condition and then do not keep the ordained. This is what you see clearly.
Here, Quy Son remind everyone should know the cause of the fruit, know the good he has had to cherish, and care to cultivate it better and better to deserve the grace that he has. Do not let it slip through the wall!
"Why do not you fold your hands, do not take care of the ball, do not take care of the cause of the result is not successful? How to let a lifetime pass, it is not useful to career after life.
The ball is time. Before we mention the goodness that exists for us to cherish; This new advice to cultivate the practice to get the good results in return. If the arms folded indifferent is to let the time pass by, do not know how sorry. There are those who have been ordained, entered the temple then crossed arms indifferently, leisurely through the day, do not know how to regret his time to cultivate so he reminded.
Remember that in the impermanence stream, you can not bathe twice in a river. It means we go down the river and then up, when down again, the stream of water has flowed no longer flowing water, so can not swim twice in a river.
Normally everyone saw the river yesterday, bathing today. But the truth is not so. Once you step up and the water is flowing back, then the first flow is gone.
This is also true, our good luck is not easy to get a second time, but the second time is different, because the innovation is not the same as before. Sometimes it is better or worse, not the same, so called unrepeatable. Therefore, we have to make use of favorable conditions available to cultivate, not to cross and then hard to find.
He reminded if the monk did not take care of the cause of spiritual practice, to let time pass by the useless things in the end to be what?
As the Venerable Thich Vuong Pagoda once said, "Zen monk in Vientiane Institute, one day saw the snow fell to say:" Snow fall has three classes increased: the higher is in the Sangha meditation, The middle of the ink pen writing poetry about snow, the lower guy sitting around the oven to talk to eat.
Venerable Patriarch The Five Resurrects, then said: "In the winter of the year of Dinh Mui at the Tiger, I personally see these three classes are so right, suddenly burst into laughter, know that the words of the predecessor There is no lie. "
If we look closely, there will also be three classes of increase, sometimes even in the hospital itself. So this is the wake of our ordained people. If you know how to spend time, the snow is not working, free to go to meditation; There are people who do not know what to do and sit down pen writing poetry for sad; or those who do not write poems around the talk about eating and drinking, add to the psychological addiction does not mean anything! There is a blame, sorry?
For example, there are rainy days, not doing any work, then in the Road to get the cradle to the meditation sitting meditation, worth seeing! In contrast, the rain does not do work do not know what to do, the three groups, seven tea drinking talk talk, causing more mental disorder birth defilement is waste of time in vain.
It is the experience of the ancient people to let us know and then check back, not to fall into the middle class, such low. Must be the kind of smart people know, know the precious time and can not find it again.
There is a story about Zen Master Nhat Tinh: One day, the teacher went through the road to see the rising monk sleeping. Because the Sangha in the old monasteries is also the Meditation Center which is not like our Sangha. That is to say, the meditation center is divided into sections, each one with umbrellas, mattresses, mattresses ... in it, and then meditate. At rest, it also lay down to rest.
He entered the security: "This is the need to clean the whole body. If only to take care of sleep like that, then the year to get work today? Then take off his shoes.
The ancients were so strict. That is the way to remind them of the ancient virtues, help the remission of care to cultivate his or her career, do not let time pass useless. We learn here to remind ourselves to remember, the more you learn, the more encouraging.Quy Son dexterity, just commanded just complimented, both encouraging, not say one way.
"To renounce the parents, the decision to go home, the desire to go up? Early in the afternoon thinking, to stretch through the day.
We see each sentence, the words of the Quy Son said there is something very powerful wake up learners. He told us to carefully consider whether we have abandoned parents, decided to go out, where do you want to go? You have to ask yourself sincerely. Maybe this is the wish to drop back to mud again. If it is not smart then just leave this house to the other, just not hanging out of muddy world.
It is his intention to be raised up from the mud of the world, to go on the way to the new, called the monk, because the monk is out of the ceiling! So early in the afternoon to think to think about, but can not last for days. What is it that goes on and on? It is not wise to go out and do not practice anything, only extend the date to wait only.
That is where each of you check yourself, is there a lifetime of donation credit? Have you ever met your family?
"Mind set up the practice of Buddhism, making a model for the next."
The monk must be that. Appointment to make pillars for Buddhism, make a model for the following. It is said that the noble direction of the nobleman, the mind must appoint himself to this place, the monk should do as the pillars for the Buddha, that is keeping the Buddha long standing, the Buddha Spreading the Dharma for the world, but not the ordinary clothes over the day. Seeing that is the responsibility.
Because Buddha came to teach the teachings of beings, now he has entered Nirvana but the teachings left. The teachings also leave that rely on the Sang Bao to propagate the circuit of the Tathagata, to benefit beings. But the monk did not see his responsibility and then leave the day to eat rice?
Seeing to understand then to try to learn to get a place in the religion, that is important.Because there is a place in religion to make pillars for the Dharma, and the latter has a refuge to learn to cultivate, called a model for the following. So the output shelf:
Chaplain,
Most profitable people.
The monk is to propagate the path, ie the direction of liberation of the Buddha, and then vow of all people. Thus, if the monk who did not try to study is not as smart as Trung Phong said: "For the Buddha vows to say, swear words alone. That is not clever in front of the Buddha's great vows, but it is just a swear word outside the mouth, which does not mean that word, is shameful!
Here, Quy Son Son reminds us to study hard to be worthy as the pillars of the Buddha, as a model for the post-graduate study.
"Usually for that, there is not a corresponding part . "
Reading to this place, we see the tremble? It is often said that Quy Son Son said not a bit compatible. He gave another sentence to prevent. For fear of being arrogant. "I think we have to be the Buddha, as a model for the next, I'm so important!" But that's just too much! So even though there are often minds like this, there is not a corresponding part.Thought is also noble but also how to practice to make that wish come true to be called compatible.
Prior to understanding their duties as the Buddhist followers must be like that, is precious. The next step is to practice to achieve that idea, not just ideal. So, here is the prompting.
This is the opposite way to emphasize the attention of each person. As such, it is still not compatible, but there are also thoughts of letting go, through the day. Italy is that place.
It means that people with such good heart, appointing themselves as the pillars of the Dharma ..., is precious; But with him, it is not a bit compatible, but also the thought of letting go, thought through the day!
"The statement should be consistent with the rules, the table must say that there are grounds, superior shape, high air temperament."
These are the places where he is very alert. The person who lives with us is worthy of being a monk. Saying that, must be consistent with the rules, the table must have clear evidence. News speaks out according to books, ancient words decent, not fabricated.Speaking, the table is said to be very accurate, just enough to make people believe.
This is to prevent the talker, talked in his own mind. In the meditation house, it is often referred to as the fabrication, or the arbitrary fabrication of speech, or the arbitrary creation of reasoning to fascinate people who do not understand, but with the mind can not see immediately. That is what we must prevent, must avoid.
Reading in the Zen master of Vietnam, see the Queen of the Ly dynasty talk with the National Communication, the professor and evident somewhere clear, when listening to she was very admired.
Venerable Master once came to the North to ask for the construction of Yen Tu Zen Monastery, he said to set up Yen Tu Monastery to restore the spirit of Yen Tu, then asked the other know why Yen Tu floating. language? He pointed out here is the place where many spiritual practitioners, the heart of people want to turn to the new sentence: " Whoever resolved to practice ... ". Speaking of good evidence, people must accept.And we often say the sea, there is no evidence, people refold. This is something we must know that prevents.
Then "shape superiority, high air temperament," ie appearance, style beyond ordinary people. This place is where we must always check back. How to preserve the style of the monk, not to let people look at distrust. Unless you are the adventurous Bodhisattva, do not say, do not have to try to preserve the qualifications of the monk to see people have faith, called blessed fill them sown. But this style must be true, not to pretend to respect the people respect. That's not it. It must be due to true spiritual practice, control the six grounds should appear so.
Then high air temperament is in the soul of liberation, not persistent, small humble. It means that in the mind, in addition to the generals are worthy of each other, worth following the model for the next, not just the appearance outside. In the spiritual practice, the soul must be so high, so liberated.
Venerable Quang Kham also reminded him of the monk, saying: "You have put on your robes and then you have to cultivate where there is nothing to be afraid, or worry. No worries about the situation, not entangled in the love affairs etc ... all things are awkwardness is enough.
He reminded the monk to have such a liberated soul, called beyond the ordinary mind of the secular, not bothered about the story, not to be caught in the affairs of love, it is obnoxious.
" Go to a good distance because you are good, usually clean in the ears. Stop picking you up, always listening to what you have not heard. So say: "Born to be my parents, make me a friend." Climb up as you go in the dew, though not wet shirt that always has penetrated. Accompanying the wicked, the greater the evil, the sooner the evil creation, the immediate results, the death must sink deep. One who loses body in need of life is hard to see again. "
Quy Son reminds the benefits of being close to you, that is to choose you to close, this is called the rice soup has soup has you. Good health is often close, help yourself a lot.Because you are rarely found, and you are near by.
As the old monk helped Tong Khiem. That is the Great Khiem Diem Master Dai Hue to bring the poetry away. I do not want to go because I'm afraid of losing my spiritual time.Tuan Nguyen advised to go and he will go to help. That person on the way is revealed. You are a good help to each other.
Mr. Hieu Son and Mr. Dieu Phong are also friends to help each other. Then He Nham Head help Tuyet Phong enlightened in Ngao Son. The old friends are many friends help each other. These are good examples for you to help each other. So, here QuyX Son reminds you to choose good, to cherish each other tu.
When the Buddha was still alive, one day, Venerable Sassa-phat went on a trip with Buddha to Water-slap. On the way, they stopped at one place. That day, Venerable Xa-benefit-phat missed the elderly man on the ground and stood up.
Then the Buddha remembered, told Ananda: "Ananda! Let's take a close friend who keeps this old-growth! " That is to save for Sassapa-benefit.
Sun A-nan asked:
- Lord, what is the best friend you hold?
Buddha said:
- Depending on where you need to make you happy, it is called according to your best friend.
The author A-nan asked:
- Depending on where you need to make you happy?
The new Buddha taught:
- There are seven ways to make good friends bring benefits and affection.
One, it is difficult to give or give. The easy ones do not say. The hard to give is also called, forget yourself for you, not calculate, that is the true spirit of friends.
Two, the difficult thing to do or do. There are things that are difficult to do or do for each other, then that is just for you.
Three, the hard thing or ring. The rings are easy, but the hard ring is still ringing you.There are things you miss doing something you are uncomfortable or angry, but because you should ring.
Four, secretly tell each other. There is a secret to tell each other.
Year, is the same secret. As friends know each other's stories, but for your closed things often keep each other. When are not happy with each other? Go talk to the other person, to show the bad of your friend, it's not the spirit of your friends. Nho said it was the heart of the individual, not the military, the military did not do it. So this Buddha teach secretly tell each other, and keep secret your secret, only with you know. It is true that you are for you.
Six, meet miserably leave each other. This is very difficult. That is, despite difficulties, meet suffering without leaving each other.
Seven, is poor and contemptible. Always keep the spirit before, even if they are difficult to leave each other. At the time of welding, they lived together very well, then when they were in office, they had the right to be rich or they started to change, that is because they were rich and separated.
Because of poverty, leaving each other means that when you are poor, you are leaving.In the past, their friends had money, helped to go back together, after meeting them poor, then called, turned face. That's not the spirit for you.
Done, the new Buddha said:
- Hey Ananda! Thus, the seven of them are called good friends, have interests and affection, make you happy.
Then the Buddha said verse:
Hard to give or give,
Difficult to do or do,
Hard ring or ring,
He is friendly.
Secret talks to each other,
Then together keep secrets,
Encountering misery,
Poorly despised each other.
Who can do it,
Seven methods mentioned above,
New to be friends,
Be close to him.
That is close friends help me a lot. So if you are well healed it is too good! So I also have to learn that spirit together to make friends, not to change the face instead of heart is not good.
Religious must be different than the human. Life is not good, such people do not even better, should know to prevent.
Quy Son said that " near as good as walking in the dew, although not wet, but it permeates . I mean, there's a hidden benefit, like going in the dew in a hook, but not wetting it, but it goes away for a long time.
Here, Quy Son Son quoted the Confucius: " Born to be my parents, make me a friend." That is close friends often with me, more than the teacher anymore, you help, share a lot for yourself. So we need to learn the spirit for you.
There is a story about friendship, ie, the story of the East Chau - Tiger Khau with his God - Hidden Spirit.
He was a fellow countryman, a fellow student, very close friends. At Dong Chau in the Khau, while in Van Tho Pagoda in the absence of abbot, so people appointed him to her here to abide. East Chau, so very discouraging this, do not know what reason? It is true that friends are more happy, but here he again prevented? At that time, he was at Tianning Temple in Huzhou, a class that advanced to status, and knew it but did not let it.
More than a year later, the East Chau has the charm to go to Hau Zhou coast. Dong Chau in Italy also want to visit him alone, but in shame should hesitate. Thinking of the past behaved like that, do not know if he still remember it and prevent it from ruining his work or not? I think it is good to wait for him to go somewhere, then go over to see it?
When it was reported that Dong Chau was visiting, he was away but immediately returned. He treated the rites fully. Then he heard East Chauvinism to take his wealth before the East Europeans talked freely, expressing friendship as before without any change, as if nothing.
When Dong Chau returned to his pagoda in Hổ Khâu, a late night, upstairs in the hall, he went both praise and praise that: "Single Princess, Tho Vinh phuc". That is, he praised her alone with the spirit of the military, and have a personal mind, should blame themselves.
If we are the abbot, who has a friend to stop, then you hate it? Try checking again!Tomorrow, we have the charm of the local reputation, the other friend to the area under his management, then remember the old, have a good deal or not? Check back!
This is the only person who has a spirit of pride, even though you treated him badly in the past, but now you also receive kindness, help each other. The heart of the suitor for friendship is so. These are the examples that remind us to live together well.
The author of Son Am Grotto when the story was finished, commented: "I see the guys in today's forest, the people who make friends together fight each other every word, then hedge the benefits with each silk thread. When they came to each other, overwhelmed each other, hate to die immediately to satisfy. To find someone who is as hardworking as Dau Co, then who is self-blame as Dong Chau, it is very rare.
This means that friends with each other to miss this, then the other, called each other arguing, then hysteria each other for the benefit of each silk thread. Compared to here, he is really a person who has a heart of work, not selfish, narrow; And East Chao himself is blameless, and indeed he is a good man. Are there so many people today?
This is a reminder of the Buddha as well as the Buddha's teachings so that we know the spirit of our friends. He advised to choose a good friend close to help more good, so close to you as good as walking in the dew.
"Familiar with the evil more and more see the evil, early dark creation of evil, retribution before the eyes, dead and then sink deep. One who loses his body, wants to live forever. " It means that it has infected the evil and then it will produce evil words of action. Then, soon to create the evil, the evil fruit. When the bad fruit is heavy, the results are not far off. When we die, we have to sink deeper and deeper into our bodies.That is something that everyone must be careful.
Remember, near good he will help us a lot of benefits on his path, and near evil you are more evil. So, the world is often said: "For him, see how close they are usually considered those?" . That is, see if they are close to who they know who they are. If you go after the alcoholic who knows how. Looking for those who work diligently study, doing business knows how that person! That is also experience.
In the great bowl of Nirvana, Buddha once told Bodhisattva Ca-lettuce about Thien Thien, he said:
- Pure Essential Oil is reciting 12 sutras, proof of the four meditation but not understand a shelf, a sentence, ring to a letter. Since you are close to evil you should take the Four meditations, then give birth to the evil evil, which says that no Buddha, no Dharma, no Nirvana.
Therefore, we need to know who to close, must choose you.
"The word at the ear, not impressed in the heart or not!"
These are the things we must insist on in order to learn. Because honest people practice, to dare to hear the words straight, despite the ear but I will hear many benefits.
Straight words are the real words, there is no bend, that is not in accordance with their own, no flattering. Did not flatter, sometimes also difficult to hear so called left ear. But dare to hear the benefit. If you just enjoy listening to the mellow ear will not be smart will live in flattery. This experienced person will see clearly.
Speaking mellow, where dare to tell the truth, sometimes we do wrong but also praise dare not say anymore. And then I thought it was good, to do it again is dangerous. And do wrong that your friends dare to say the wrong thing, say straight to me that it is said right, then I know that wrong.
Then, "do not inscribe in your heart?" Although the ear but also dare to listen to engraved in the heart there are great benefits. Because straight words, straight words are willing to point out mistakes to correct us, the error is not according to the ears, but it is the practical benefits.
As the story along with the two monks in the temple went into the play until late afternoon.
Venerable Han Qi Tang asked:
- Where are you going?
Linh Nguyen:
- I just went to Dai Ninh Temple back.
At that time, Tu Tam stood next to him, loudly said:
- Huynh Thanh, a meditator who wants to get rid of birth and death, said to be honest!Not to be so liar!
Mr. Tu said right in the face is the right ear. How dare listen? But hearing that is a good thing. So, Linh Nguyen at that time as shameless self-correction, since then no longer dare to go into the game anymore, nor dare to emit lingering words like lying. That is the benefit of daring to hear straight words.
So do not remind Quy Xo not deep into my heart?
Just as Mr. Hoang Tri - Chief of the Giac, in the school of Soto, while studying is not abbot. One day, he and the monk asked each other about the ko to suddenly laugh. At that time, Mr. Tu Thuan in Nhan Ha, heard the new rebuked: "His laughter has lost so much good. Did not you hear: 'temporarily not like the dead' ?
Mr. Hoang Tri immediately received the ceremony. From then until the next inscribed, even in the desert alone not dare to neglect again. It is a mirror of exemplars, very respectable.
If you meet the unfaithful person when talking about the ko that big laugh is rebuked so what? It is also warm hearted. Have fun laughing at something not to rebuke? Here, Hoang Tri heard the ceremony immediately received. It is the spirit of the dare to hear the words straight.
So Quy Son reminds us to learn as well. Because listening to the words straight to hear the words of truth. For example, fraternity because you know that you do wrong things should say straight to yourself the wrong thing to correct. If you hear straight to refute or be angry, then again overwhelmed again after the daddy not dare to remind, just hear the words flattered. That's what we have to learn to avoid.
"Briefly or cleanse the moral, bury the body, keep clean spirit, absolutely noisy".
Studying, we just see Quy Son Son teach very well. Teaching is to know hidden in order to purify his mind that raised his virtue. Do not race in the interests of the lure, but to bury his body of fame to forget the self. There is no need to let more people know that to add a big ego is a joke. There is no need to know who to cultivate, to raise the virtue, to clean the heart that is filtered inside their own. This is very important because in the heart is the most precious, not the need to know many new precious.
So the old man received the moral and then hide his nourishment. As Nam Nam is famous, but at the beginning, when he realizes the doctrine, he hides on Nam Tuyen Mountain, wearing a blouse, a grass hat, and drinking buffalo herds among woodcutters and shepherds. , all 30 years. Mainly, the 16-year-old hides in the hunter group, while Thach Suong is hidden in the potters' village of Liuyang. When there is a monk from Dong Son, he asks:
- After the release, what do you say?
Mr. Tăng Sơn reminded him: "When you disembark, you go east, go west, but go where you do not have grass."
He asked:
- So who can say?
He added:
- No one answered.
He said:
- Why not answer: "Just out the door is grass"?
He raised the report to Mr. Dong Son. Mr. Dongshan said:
- In Liuyang there is an ancient Buddha.
At that time, the fame of the new revealed.
And when he was attending school, he was introduced to him by Linh. Linh An Pagoda is a famous place in the Qiao Tang, which was introduced by Mr. Gong Gong is a great introduction is just honor.
But when He Snow Dau to Linh An Pagoda is still practicing the ordinary mass, do not show the letter. One day, there was a passing passage, he remember to visit the Linh An pagoda to visit him Snow, how many years he was here how to practice?
But when the Linh An Pagoda asked no one knows Snow Dug, this temple has more than 1,000 monks, where easy to know the name! He checked the list and found. He said:
- Where did the letter I write to you last time? Why not bring the master to see?
At that time, Tuyet Dau reached his hand in the sleeve to get out, still open. He said:
- I appreciate your kindness. But a man like me does not seek the favor of the world, so then dare not expect his introduction to be displayed?
Mr. Tong finished listening to the problem, laughed.
At that time, the master of Linh An pagoda learned that this new treatment, the more respected the more.
These are the examples called hidden halls, not ostentatious to run the fame. If the person enjoys the reputation, when he introduced the letter to receive preferential treatment, and he just kept normal, the star cleaning of the heart to keep his spirit, the reputation is not important .
That's what we should learn. Do not rush around the noisy noise into the muddy soul, that is what the Buddha, the rebuking.
These are the experiences of the ancient people that Quy Son Son also experienced.The same Quy Son as ever.
When coming to Quy Son in the early period, he also hid his reputation, in the wild forest with tigers, no one knows. Time after the coast, then people know that new find.Need to show off to everyone to know. So He said this is He has gone through, not speak out. Do not advise people then I do not do anything. That is what we learn, to awaken ourselves.
"If you want to study meditation direct, the speed beyond the vehicle, the heart of the bridge, considered the essence, the deep disclosure, enlightenment at the source of the wide to ask the level of understanding first, close to you heal It is difficult to obtain the magic of it, to use the mind of maturity. "
Before Quy Son Son teaches about gender, then study catechism to have basic, do not let time pass. It is the basic means to enter the path. This speaks directly to meditation.
"To meditate on virtue, to transcend the means of communication, to reveal the source of our mind." That is the direct route, so called beyond the vehicle door.
"Center with the ferry," that is to deepen, to overcome the means outside, not stranded in literal letters. Because if the means of speech to understand the end then where is called Huyen.
"To the essence of the essence," is not to follow the analysis of the top.
"Deep-seated," deep is the place where speech is not spoken, the thought of not coming. The deep secret that only genuine meditation insight, but can not learn, speak freely.
"Revealing the source of the foot," ie the upstream birth to kill falsehood to clear the back to not kill, is the true source of his. Meditation is to go to that place, this place is not on the table that should be called magical.
"You have to ask the first level, close to you healthy," ie experienced people ahead. Han is "prophet", if based on the ordinary meaning is wrong in the word. Often people call the prophets are fortune tellers or prophets who preach things should be called prophets. The word "prophet" here is only for those who have gone before, understanding in advance, experienced new to guide us. This is called the straight path to the path without strangling. It is not easy, not superficial.
Therefore, in order to achieve that magic, it must be very mature mind, not just think of the table, but one to die of this love. In the meditation house called "postmodern reconstruction" means dead and then resurrected.
Death is the death of this love, then live up that miracle that is new. Therefore in the meditation house they use the means of speaking or listening to the back of the world to listen to the place for thought.
For example:
- What is the origin of the Patriarch from India?
A:
- Cypress in front of the yard.
How do you know? The love that think so to? Italian Patriarch that is cypress?
Or have a question:
- What is the religion?
A:
- Bureau of land.
Ask:
- What is legal?
A:
- Soil.
Then how to think? But the place can not think, the place where love can not come, to live up the other magic.
So in the Mind of Mind, the Three Brothers said: "Not the place of failure, Confucius unpredictable. Truth like France, No one does not. Need to fold, just say not two. This is the place to live again.
A monk asked him French Labels:
- Ten holy sages are into this tone, how is this tone?
Brother replies:
- The ten divine sages come in.
That's all! Not like a teacher. Instructors ask the ten Hien holy methods are in this tone, so how is this tone, then this answer is the Zen, ie the straight card, etc.
That is easy to understand. But is this true? So how can you see this tone?
Can be superficial mind that can not? It is the place of self-directing, which is called to grasp the source of the foot, to return to the pre-motive, before birth, the mind is self-match, called beyond the language presented. The Zen call it the opening of the unexplainable, is not the teacher. This mind is not the teacher, but himself in his own place.
So, when He asked President Quy Son Son:
- What is the place of the Buddha?
Quy Son replied:
- Use private magic without private; turn the thought of him, lucid to the same, Tanh general head, the two do not, the Buddha's feet like.
Magic is thought of mysterious, using the magic that is not thought is thinking color but do not think. Think without thinking that is magic.
Then turn the thought of crystal-clear, discerning, not confused until the end, when the end of the return to the source. Immediately, he immediately fell ill. The place of the Buddha's feet is so.
Turn that thought to think of where not thinking, not thinking to think. Turn to the spot where he is not clear all the space to think. When the thought finishes, return to the source. I mean, there is no place to think, to be different. It is the place where the prime minister usually, the second is not the place of the Buddha.
New to use the mind is to use space to look forward to the news, not easy, not relaxed through the day. At first, Quy Son reminded that to clean the heart of the moral, then bury the body, forget this fall, not to say it.
"In that quick turn of the Chief, the floor is out of the ceiling. Divided three realms, twenty five real.
Divided into three realms, twenty-five real is important, but before the need to disclose the right person is the threshold to get out of the ceiling of labor. Therefore, Zen Buddhism should basically be enlightened. That is the point, we need to grasp this weakness only.
What is the master? The heart of the heart is not destroying. The Zen monk, the first is to believe in where you have the heart of mind, which is the ancient truth does not kill.Then it is clear that this is the root of the so-called threshold to get out of the ceiling.This is called the basis of birth and death, which is also the basis of Bodhi, Nirvana.
When an unconscious thought suddenly began to fall in love with samsara;Enlightenment back is beyond Bodhi, Nirvana. So meditation is enough to believe and master this fundamental essence. Mr. Hoang Ba once said: "This mind is the source of pure, Buddha and people have. The flying creature, the spear, the Buddha, the Bodhisattva one can not be different. Just because the idea of distinguishing artifacts that other things have.
That is, the mind is the root of all Buddhas and beings. Tu is the mind of this and enlightenment is the enlightenment of this mind, then the mind is the mind of this mind, love is also interested in this mind, not something else. It is so important but people ignore it, it is a pity! So the Patriarchs use every means to wake us up to remember that.
If we are convinced that each person has enough, this is the basis for the birth of samsara; Until the Buddha, do not go outside this center. The Buddha is also the center of this, which makes the team also do this. The bridge has something to become a Buddha, there is something to make yourself, is far away.
It is this place when we must also see the meaning of the. He said "enlightenment" because it is available in the place, not from here. Enlightenment suddenly suddenly does not have time. Call it fast! Stay in the meditation house often called suddenly or suddenly enlightened. If there is a thought to be enlightened is not possible.
As Zen Master Sung Tin handed over the lamp, Duc Son handed over his hand, Sungtin was blowing out, Duc Son immediately enlightened. Effort is fast, no place to think in time.
Then, "to master this person is the step to get out of the ceiling, is to destroy the three realms, twenty-five real," the liberation of birth and death. That is the path of liberation.
Quy Son teachings are very basic.
The word "organic" is also the realm to be born, ie, hell, animal, hungry, adept, four places called evil place. Then four continents are Dongsheng Shunde, Tay Chau Hoa Chau, North Bay Luzhou, Nam Thiem Department, which is eight. Plus the six heavenly realm is the Four Heavenly Kingdoms, Dao-benefit or Three Tam, the sky Diem-ma, Heaven-rate, the sky, Lac Thac Hoa Tu, is fourteen. To heaven of beauty: first meditation, second meditation, third meditation, fourth meditation; Here meditation is 15, 16 is Great Brahma, then 17 is second meditation, 18 is Third meditation, 19 is meditation; then the next 20 is in the realm of Imagination, 21 is the A-na-jhana.
It is intermingled in several realms of the Great Brahma, the heavens of Paradise, the heaven of Refuge (Pure Land ie the realms where the Anatomy is born, then there in Nirvana).
Then four heavenly realms of Unclaimed is not the Origin, Consciousness, Non-possession of land and non-thinking land. That's called 25 beings. So in this cycle of samsara not out of this 25 property, collectively it is three realms.
Thus, the practitioner of liberation is to destroy the three realms, out of the 25 real, if still lurking in it is still in samsara. Whether birth to the heaven of Colorless or the Heavenless Sphere, but also in the samsara, not yet out, not liberated.
As the pagans in India, they meditated very high, attested to the Four Meditations, or attained the Noble Truths, but they were not born out of samsara because of the self.Such a dangerous fall, even a little fall is still in birth and death.
Quy Son teaches us to be quick to enlighten ourselves, this is the step from the birth of samsara. Because this mind is often absent from birth, there is no reincarnation; It is the equality of the Buddhas and beings. So, Buddhas and beings are also the same body; It is in birth and death but it does not bear birth. So we take that, the enlightenment as the right person to achieve the right results.
That is not the cause of the birth of the new fruit does not kill. And if you take the human beings that kill the fruit is destroyed. People who practice this ascetic body, pressing the body then it is human beings kill. Either by thinking thoughts, distinguishing the human, then it is human birth will kill the fruit to kill. And here is the human not kill new to the fruit does not kill.
Firmly and clearly see the corresponding cause and effect, then there is no fear. This is called equality of the Buddhas and beings. Therefore, although it is said that birth or death, or samsara, it is also the means for those who love to say, because of ignorance and crazy island expectations, there is only that. But on the truth is that it is not ancient in the past what is out? The teaching of Zen is so.
The monk asked Thach To:
- What is out of birth and death?
He replied:
- What to do?
Asked:
- How can I recover?
Brother replies:
- That is not birth.
What is the birth and death? So it is enlightened to see that the real relief. This is clearly stated that the first step is to step out of the ceiling to break the three realms, twenty-five real.
"The dhamma in the outside is not true, from the heart that starts, is pretending, should not take the mind to visit."
These paragraphs we have to listen carefully, and then reflect on where the tu. This is very important on our path.
Feng Shui is the base of Zen meditation. That is the outside of the truth is not from the heart, which is to pretend not to be taken care of. I realize that this is the mind then the law in the outside is not true, without real law what is out. We see that there is real law should be found in the outside, there are out there. Clearly in the mind outside the general scene there is no real law. There is no real law, that is, not real, not nothing.
Know it, there is no such as no entity there is something called to be born, to prove?Understanding this new place to see the truth that they just taught.
Out of the mind, what is known? Look carefully! Did France know the French? France must also know from the heart, can not leave the mind but own law. Who can have only one method but out of mind? If there is a mind. No matter how high the higher the method, only the mind, there is only the mind that is outside the mind. Leaving the mind for nothing only?
So do not leave any mind that own has it all. We have to see that. But outside of the mind not own, then why is it for the mind? Empty and then each of the legal, every law from the heart, if not mind where will the French legal position? Dhamma from the new mind, without mind, where is it? Just liberate it!
For example, the table, the chair without the mind, what is the table, the chair? Should be here to say that the outside world is not real, only from the beginning, is false. To the gods, then this god and god, also must from the heart that turn, from the heart that set out, except the mind can not be alone; and to be male, as female, as good, as bad, etc. can not be beyond the mind.
Consciousness is where this mind is attached to where to birth? There is no real truth, what is the mind to cling to that birth?
That place is where we come back, but because the cultivator often hears this in nouns, he hears without going into it, so he can not see his place. But if listening carefully, this insight is enough liberation.
Because all the dharmas are from the heart, they are pretending not to have any real dharma, then where to be mind? Because we see that it is true that the new mind is the place. It means that all the dharmas are conditioned by the causation that there is no entity, there is no dhamma itself can exist, until the Buddhas, beings also rely on the mind. Besides the mind can not have, all belong to the pretense.
And that equality is not two, where there is no difference. Named the Buddhas, named the beings that is also the name, if the two are not the same, then show this person. It is the step to step out of birth, liberation. Clear the law is not legal is true, only this is the main mind.
Therefore, the verse of the Buddha transmission:
French descent is legal,
French law is also legal,
Now when given this lawless,
What is the law of France?
Yin:
French legal rule,
The legal challenge of the goddess,
Deputy vice president,
French legal law?
"French origin is lawless." So the original French law, is not legal, there is legal French tops. There is no legal means that the mind itself is not something else. The so-called legal not that is also legal. Because it is said to have a name, but also the name is in the treatment, do not take it.
For example, say it is not legal people then follow the habit of thinking that there is also the law, then think what is not legal? It is that barrier that impedes the mind that follows the name that originated. So the Zen masters often refuse to say that place, because they say then we follow that imaginary, so they either temporarily called "that" .
Because people are used to live by the real, heard immediately followed by the name that originated. It is the place that makes the obstacle. So they must die for that kind of consciousness. End of the story, there is nothing to think anymore, immediately clear.
"Now, when this man is enlightened, he secretly convenes the unqualified, then it is clear that every law that exists here is not real, besides the other, there is no real law. end.
So should say "legal ever being legal". Clear this place, the clear law is not the only legal mind is not a single other legal. And when all dharmas are absolutely no real, then where is the mind? There is no place to be born without being born, free. In contrast, there is also a real law that there is room for birth. There is room for birth that is still in the cycle of samsara.
Here is the basic need to enlightenment the other law, then thoroughly through all legal, not trapped in any.
Because there is no real dharma, it is enlightened to this deed, and also enlighten the master, no longer accept a law outside. Beyond this mind, there is no real truth.
Here Quy Son said, did not really do the whole truth, why bring the mind into what to make the story. This place is where crazy beings turned into birth and death. Deleted thinking! So the Buddha taught that all living beings live in false hope.
Understand this place and then see the reason is not obvious. Means to see all the legal, there is no real law, there is no place to be born so not mind center. If the mind is not born on the law, each legal dharma is like what, what happens, where the wind waves. That is the peaceful realm. Simple.
"If love does not fit in, then things are afraid of people!"
Mind that is not born on the object, it liberates itself, nothing is bound; Every thing, though not as well, is not afraid of people. Until then, we can practice for a lifetime.
For example, the table is the table, the chair is the seat is not the center of the table, the chair is afraid what? Because of his mind on it, it has new, new birth story. Experienced people can see this clearly.
Ajahn Chah, a Thai teacher, recounted his experiences in the forest. That day, around 11 o'clock, there was a festival in the village singing the long-distance singing in the forest. But that day, I feel my heart is not like a normal day, how many hours it resonates, but nothing to do with me ( like the voice is, I'm myself anyway. But I did not hear anything.
A moment later, his mind went deep into the mind, that state was special. Suppose you want to hear the sound, but it does not disturb the heart, but if you do not want to hear it, do not hear anything, like the absence or where it goes. It is the experience of the practitioners, the witness has told.
To prove the Buddha's words, the words of the place is clear, true, not the words, if we cultivate here will feel clearly. This too, the love that does not fall on the object is not afraid of people. That is the truth.
Understand that it is because of the obstacle, not the object of fear. Remember that!Meaning that the person born in mind and then tied himself to the object, so it is afraid, not the object it is afraid of people. If not born on the object, the self-liberation from childhood, not recently.
In the Zen house, the person who sees clearly says that he can not get anything, because he has freed himself from childhood, not to see himself. So that is not the center of mind, which is called the magic of this card. So for this we have to be careful not to use the mind, not the table.
A monk asked:
- When the mind is not moving?
Master Te Pho Te replied:
- You do not have the power.
Asked:
- What is great?
The scene where the mind does not move too well then why he also said is not great?So he asked again what is great man?
Master Te Pho Te replied:
- The mind is not moving.
Inquiries:
- So why did you say that there is no great man?
The new Master of Prison said:
- At home it is easy to come to the river to catch fish difficult.
That is at home talking catch fish easily but when the river to know it is difficult to catch.This is the same, but easy to say but need to practice to know. This place is a place to live, not a place to talk. Therefore, it is wise to look closely at this place to see your place.
Then if it is clear then see the table, the chair, flowers he knows nothing that bound him? Just because I was born with it becomes bound. If only see or hear is just not hear the difference mind, the flower is still flowers, the table is the table, no birth anything. If it is so, then can see the peach blossom light gnosis because there are no obstacles.
Once he Thieu Long in the Vien Ngai, Vien Ngu led a section in the Surangama: "Expenditure of the time, non-tectonic opinions, antigravity, antecedent comments." That is seeing the sight, the sight is not the sight; the sight still left the see, the sight did not catch up.
Finished, he raised his fist to say:
- See?
Thieu Long said:
- see
Master Yu said:
- On the top again add head.
Right then Mr. Thieu Long suddenly sober, Mr. Vien Ngu new rebuke:
- What do you see?
Thieu Long said:
- Bamboo is not afraid of water flowing through.
It is seen through the fist of the hand is not obstructive. Like the bamboo knit thick way several countries also flow through. Seeing the fist but without stopping at the fist, see through the fist, always holding hands can not be afraid.
Asking his fist to ask: "See?"
- Seeing .
Often people see that too. That is so called on the head again to add the head, ie on the see again to see more birth. So before you put your fist up, do not you see? That is to see more to see, not clever to be stuck on the object should be obstructed, afraid.
And here we see before holding hands up again. Often we see only when holding hands up, and the enlightenment is seen before holding hands, must see to that place. Waiting for a fist to show up is true on the top of the head. Before holding the fist up still see when holding up the fist does not matter. Seeing through the fist is always the sight of the enlightened ones see so. However, this is just a suggestion not to accept the words.
In short, ordinary people when they see the fist, then the hands are afraid to call so mesmerizing. But truth is holding hands it is not afraid that just because the person born on the fist of that hand so afraid. Understand and then see the place, if love does not fall on the object is not afraid of the person.
"Despite the legal nature of the flow, do not continue. Listen, see the capital is trivial, this side of the application is not missing. "
These places are called weak spiritual practice only, if careful listening to enough capital to live for themselves. It means that despite the legal nature of flowing throughout, naturally displayed everywhere, without interleaving in to become obstructive.
"Do not have a piece, do not continue", is not the birth of the mind or the heart follow it.That is the scene immediately blocked obstacles to the heart to end it. If the mind is not the end of it, the birth of the next, according to it. They are also in two cases of rebirth.Here the teachings are not born mind it, but also not follow the heart of it; that is to pay the natural things, it is so. The mind or the passage or the continuation of it is intermingled with it, into a story. Here is to pay it back as it is. The so-called return to the natural dharma so the mind smoothly go through all, nothing obstructive.
Then "Listen to the sound, see the capital is trivial," no problem at all. If it does not interfere with it, it does not matter. Since we intervene in it, it is the problem itself. This life is only seen, hear only hear, then sharpness is only sharp, no more birth, there is no wind, the realm of self-peace, security.
"There is no shortage of applicants," which means that the two sides are always clear that they are not absent. Not that the other party has then the other party lost, or that the other party has lost, trapped this party or the other. This is above the ceiling and ceiling. Due to stuck in the floor and ceiling should be stuck here, when stranded on the other; there is one side missing, the other side is missing this side. And here is beyond the ceiling, is a knowledge throughout the past, that is the real magic. So, the bright spot is to clear the mind, to see the place to return.
Hoang Ba often reminded: " Human beings are more afraid of the mind, the fear should often want to escape the scene to calm, to the left to the reason. Do not know the mind is afraid of the scene, just cause the mind is not the scene it does not, just as silence makes silence, do not use such upside down.
That's where they are. Because afraid of the scene to worry, the fear should escape to escape to the heart. But this is clearly not the case, it is the mind of the scene. The mind is not born in the scene, it is self-assured; Do not make the scene make you insecure.Seeing that place can clearly see the truth is very simple escape, but because do not understand self-conceited thinking then this far the more left, self-absorption.
Zen master Thanh Tung high school teaches them: " Ten Buddhas are usually before you, you see? If it is seen to bring or see the eye? So it is said: "All France is not born, all France does not kill. If so, the Buddhas usually show money. " "
He led all economic law says all French law, not all French law. If people understand that, then the Buddhas usually show money, Buddha never entered Nirvana. If on the scene of the mind is right that the Buddha Nirvana can not see the Buddha.
Clear in this bright light is what Quy said in this. That is ten Buddhas are usually before you, not where, why do not you see? What to see again?
People often hear this sentence like buffalo ears, not involved in anything. The law of birth is clear here that all French law, not all French law. It is obvious that any law also has to kill all that say that the law is not not kill?
Thanks to tu, we listen carefully and see that the truth of it is profound. As Quy Quy Son teaches that all things in the outside are not real, what is born? Without birth, is there a place to kill? If the mind does not come in, the law itself quietly, as if it did not have any birth.
For example, does this flower have any love? If it is only seen, not centered on it, it is itself, it is like it. Right there is the bright mind, where ever the love of money Buddha.That place is the place of the Buddhas, the very right that the mind is not the Buddha.That is enough for us to see clearly our progress.
"Living like this is not real support, is also the four reciprocal grace, salvation in the three realms."
This means that the enlightenment of this human mind, and then thoroughly understood the nature of the transcendence of discrimination in the matter, in the mind of the director, so new worthy to bring the legal. The dress is a blessed dress, the land of blessing of the sky, living in such a new place to repay the four blessings, save the three realms. If not, then what to save?
That is so called new non-inflated to increase the security, that is the self, degrees of forgiveness, spiritual practice to see the light. This is the encouraging words of the Quy Son Son for those who have been ordained to the benefit of the monk.
"If you do not retreat, you will definitely have a day on the Buddha, visitors in the three realms, in and out for the people."
When living with the Buddha, and if the eternal retreat, not rot, the Bodhi decided to have nine days, determined to have a day on the Buddha. That is the principal has the fruit will ripen. Because the Buddha is in the heart not where else. The achievement of this heart, then live in this heart is then have the right person, have the right people are firmly grasp the fruit. Living full, full of merit in which the Buddha will come.
This place where the Zen Patriarchs always emphasize or emphasize Minh Tam. That is to clear the mind, see the nature, not just the blessing, how to light this truth. So the Sixth Patriarch told me in the verse,
Dharma body, body and body,
Three ancient body is a body.
If aimed in nature or self,
The Bodhi is the Buddha.
Sixty-three indicated the body: "Dharma body, Bao body, body"; Although saying that three but that is only one body. If it is self-nature, it is in that full Bodhi tree became Buddha.
I see the old saying this is the same words. Today we too, practicing in the spirit of meditation, must also come to the light of the mind, the nature of nature, not stop on the elaborate outside.
It means to clear this truth and live in that truth, do not rotate again is the peace of mind.Here, Quy Xoing says that he travels through the three realms, as a framework for human beings; to come, to go, to go; You do not get involved in a trip, like a visitor to a motel or a motel for one night, two nights and then go. We, on the other hand, find that my home is suffering is that place.
Well, then the new out of the block for the followers from the birth of death, is to rescue the three realms. That's the benefit.
So it is true that the original ceiling, new worthy of the rare grace that he had.
Quynh Son and warned so. If so, the more we learn, the more we find joy, the less we afflict and find the path of liberation. Therefore, cultivators should be more happy and happy; If you are not right, then add negativity. It is also because of me not by anyone.Be careful, do not give good cause that evil results. True good manners are good results but good cause that evil results? That is good to be ordained, to be directed; but the result is divergent. That is a sad thing but also a pity!
Here, Quy Son is also encouraging and encouraging us to see responsibility and responsibility for our lives. So when he spoke very strongly like the commandment, sometimes comforting, pointing out the truth, weak only practice.
If you study carefully and self-contemplation, application of life and tu new to see the value of the words that the Patriarchs graciously teach us. Many listen to hear but only hear the words should hear bored. That is called literacy.
The deep learns of the ancient people without stopping on the words to feel the miraculous. These are the only passages he only practice very carefully, we have to study smart and muddled to see the place of his practice.
"This study is very magical, very hypnotic, only people who are self-sufficient, not cheating on each other."
This is the Dharma that He has taught above. Because it belongs to the mind, it goes beyond the literal language, called non-literal. To say it is very magical, very mysterious, difficult to think; If you think it is not, it is not.
Delskawels7 Thick in fact777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777 As the Dao Ca said, "the school is absolutely free" , learning to reach the point of not forgetting words, not learning to add comments, not to be disturbed in language, where the text or the means. The Patriarch called it chewing sugarcane. Language is not the truth, the truth lies in itself, it is beyond language, so learning to learn to reach the depths in it. At the end must be the mind quietly say that can not come. Therefore, Zen is called mind-centered mind or mind-centered mind, which is the mind and the mind that coalesce together.
So here say people who are self-conscious do not cheat on each other, and then know that it can not think, beyond the language should have enough confidence, nothing to move. This is true hundred percent, not a lie.
The person who came here was confident, found by his own intellect, from where the mind itself received the suspicion no longer.
For example, there is a jade from ancient times, this one is rumored, the other is like this. When I hear it, I still have doubts. But when one learns that the pearl is in the hands, then no one says that the pearl is lying, not real; What do they say? I just laugh, because we have the pearl in our hand.
Here too, enough self-awareness and no doubt clearly. The same as Dai Mai when listening to Ma said: "instant mind Buddha," then believe in the mountain, enough faith.From then on, even if he heard the teacher himself said no doubt, not shaky. Because already in hand already. That is called trust. If you do not have a firm grasp on your hands, then when you hear something else, you suspect, or hear something better then you want to run into the heart. That is unstable faith.
Just as He Son, when clarified this truth, he immediately said: "From now on, no doubt the tongue of the monks in the galaxy".
So it is important to have enough self-consciousness or self-consciousness. That is the truth it touches itself, right where you see it now, not far away. But why do not people get it? Who prevented him from receiving?
The Buddha said that all of Love! He clearly said that he came here to dispose of the means, open the truth, clearly stated the nostalgia of the Buddhas are born because only for the Satori Enlightenment Buddha , but nothing else.
After this, the new Grand Master told Mr. Dang Dat that he did not know that he was sitting in a white buffalo car, but went to look for three cars at the door. That means running along the way, claiming this is the other, while sitting in a white buffalo. These are the things that need to be tested in order to fully believe that they are all about waking people to believe in the truth.
Just like Hue, three times, call the attendant, "Yes!"
Then he said:
- What is your fiancé?
Call, he "Yes!" Nostalgic! So he lacked something that was not immediately received.Get out enough. It is the truth that they want to wake up to the people who have faith in themselves, so that there is no deceit. That place is called only very sweet, deep, beyond the language so not to say.
It is therefore imperative that they use this means, the ingenious means to elicit their awakening, and awaken the person who recognizes himself to be unable to speak.Seeing that, we will have full confidence in the Way of Zen or Meditation.
"If there is middle class, can not soon pass up, then let the mind in the Dhamma, read the scriptures, find the meaning, spread widely, lead the latter, the Lord Buddha."
He said that if we have not been like that, we can not immediately go straight to the truth, then we have to rely on the teachings that study the scriptures, grasp that meaning and then spread, After, it is also a response to the blessings of the Buddha.
Because we have not clarified the mind, we must understand the teachings to guide people to the right Dharma, from which practice is not misleading. That is also a way to report the Buddha.
The Buddha who entered Nirvana now only left the scriptures, so we have to follow the religion to learn the cultivation and education of beings. Should say, "The grace of the Buddhas, the grace is not the temple, the teachings of beings, is to repay the Buddha."
Here, Quy Son was asked to review the classics, learn the meaning. That is to learn thoroughly, not to learn frivolously, learn through loudspeaker and complacent. In retrospect, what are we going to do about that?
"Also do not waste time, decided to take here to preserve the Dharma. The motive behind the movement is the Law of Gas in the Sangha.
This is again to consider again, is not to waste time, decided to take here to preserve the Dharma. It means that you must know the precious time available to take care to study carefully, taking it as a long-term preservation of Buddhism in the world.
There are Buddhist monks practicing, then learn to bring the Dharma to the people that the Buddha Dharma so that the long standing.
On the contrary, the Buddhist Dharma who monks do not worry about studying, the Buddha Dharma illumination for whom? At present, Buddhist monks are still Buddhist monks, according to that study, real tu, humanity to bring the Dharma enlightenment to everyone, so the Buddha's position is long standing. By the legal person where the message, but who will not break the law will be? We must see that meaning in order to know our duty and to live so that it is meaningful, not to waste our time.
Zen master Buddha is a disciple named Dai Tri asked permission to attend a period of about 20 years. Finished, back to the story told enough to hear on the way to study. Zen master Buddha listened quietly laughed and said nothing.
New Disciple Dai Tri new reply:
- White master! You see that after 20 years to study, you have become a good person?
He said:
- Well, good. Teaching, lecture, writings, lectures in the day so loud in the way so it is fun, we also enjoy that.
Revered Ladies:
- Whitechip! Must have some time to rest.
When it was late, the Buddhist monk said:
- Come on, come back.
Dai Tri on vacation. It was almost midnight in the morning when he heard the chanting in the room of the Buddhist monk Pham Quang resounded. In the morning, the Zen Master happily instructed the devotees of the places they came to hear. He works continuously.
Revered Ladies:
- White master! For twenty years has your activity been so busy? Are not you old teacher?
He said:
- We do not have time to grow old.
This is the disciple who found himself away for 20 years and then see how he is still busy wandering for such Buddha without remembering that he is old. "We do not have time to grow old," said the Buddhist monk.
That is a lesson for us. Those who are constantly wasting time like this, or wasting their time in vain, take this lesson to remind ourselves. Recalling the words of the Buddhist teacher is not old time, that is not free to think old.
Not free time to think old or to waste time empty to remember the old. So it is not time to waste time. You are so.
And we have a lot of free time to think about, it's wasting time. So Quy Son Son reminded not to waste time, but must decide to get here to preserve the Dharma and practice.
Then the posture, motion must match the main law that is the law of gas in the Sang.That is the gesture of action must be consistent with the rules, not to be rude, indiscriminate, that is the manifestation of the law of gas in the Tang. French gas is a useful level. We live not become useless in the Sangha, it is not good, called regrettable, blameless!
"You do not see, the string under the tree branches that up to a thousand silkworms, new winners win or gain wide benefits."
That is the wire, wire cassava cassava tree branches high, so it crawls up so high.Otherwise it only crawls under the ground where there is room to crawl. This is He for example.
Likewise, each one of us must know how to win good for him and then he has a great benefit, not folded hands to play.
Quy Son reminds us that we have to cultivate mature learning, the new fruit is compatible.
"Please keep the world, do not lie missed crossing, eternal life of the fruit of the miracle.
Dissent is good, fateful. He advised practically, take care to cultivate the boys carefully, do not miss the pass. Because thinking the precepts is not important, then omitted do not need to precept. It is called ignoring the precepts, but ignoring the rule that is lack of basic foundation should take place to rise up.
Just like the strings that cling to nothing, where does it crawl? There is no basic place to work. Discipline does not keep talking on the cloud, it is empty. So now we need to keep the moral bar, so dignified eternal life is the good result of good luck, ie no degeneration. So if we have not really liberated, then step by step, step forward to win, not fall into the evil line. That is the guarantee road.
Now is not liberated that the virtue omitted is not kept it is a dangerous path, falling down is not measurable. Each person must take it to remind themselves not to overlook the basis of precepts.
In the Buddha, there are two monks on the road to see the Buddha, both thirsty.Buddhist laws are monks when drinking water must have filtered water, if the water is not drinking.
One is too thirsty to stop drinking to save life to see the Buddha. There is a dead brother, but not dead, so he died; But that is the realm of heaven. Later, this new show down the Buddha before the monks drinking water to meet the Buddha.
At that time, the Buddha said:
- He who lives far away from me, but precepts as close as possible. This is near but that as far away from us.
Because of not keeping the precepts, the Buddha said that although he saw the Buddha but also as far away from the Buddha. The other death though is far, but close to the Buddha, but also to see the Buddha before. That is what the Founders have experienced reminders so that we can see, know that the whole heart care boys, not the Buddha's teachings.
"Can not easily through the day, drowsiness all the time, unfortunately time, not to go forward. It is the fortune of ten credit, as well as all four blessings! "
It means to live freely through the day, drowsy all the time to do nothing, so that the time is so unfortunate, not to go forward, what to take the master's favor?
Here, Quy Son Son again advised to remind again is the spirit of spiritual progress, you regret time not to leave. We see the heart of the Quy Son, check back from the beginning here He reminded about this several times already?
First time: " Fast memory in the moment, transfer the breath into the next life. Why are you okay? "That is, take the impermanent body quickly to remind us to cultivate.
The second time: "Day after month, brief moment was silver". That is to get past the time to advise the monk do not have to worry about eating, sleep to study.
The third time: " Pity a life pass, after repentance hard to keep up!" It is advisable to take advantage of the current time to care, do not leave later and repent not timely.
Fourth: " Why do not you fold your arms?" By crossing arms, do nothing, let time pass without knowing the time unfortunately. It is important to know your precious pride, do not let it over and then hard to find.
The fifth time: "Do not let the day pass easily, drowsy all the time." Waiting through the day, drowsiness all the time, so do not know what to live? Or live to wait for death . It is called the appearance of lazy, not anxious study, liquid over the day, to let this body leisurely, afraid of it hard. But do not know that it is so beloved to bear the fall, miserable later.
Again lament: " Time is unfortunate, not forward to . " Unfortunately for the time past empty useless without moving forward. That is dragging the body through the date, no tuition forward. Without moving forward, that is to fall down. And do not worry!
Finally to review how to spend the credit, then take what to repay four grace? Do not worry, learn to loose the day, dragging the body for it through the day to wait for death, so nothing is the silver that is four big grants, indigestion of credit. Seeing shame or not ?!
And if you can not spend the credit of the ten directions, the road must come to bear the land to pay debts. Think about that, then feel worried. By not being able to owe one's debts, it is impossible to repay the debt.
Have to see that reminded, book tote yourself to take care of. So who is the mind, then re-examine yourself, can you live like that? Meaning that living is easy to relax through the day, drowsiness to finish the session to nothing, finally to pay the debt. That is what the Quy Son Son very considerate, eager to remind us to do as much care.
"The heavier the container, the easier the mind is, the place where the obstacles are, are considered contemptant."
Do not worry about but worry about the container, collectors to add large greed. That is as deep sunken in greed, the heavier the heavier, the heavier the more you fall down.Light up, but heavy down. This is the appearance of heavy craving, more and more will sink muddy, polluted by mind, dust filled. The mind is polluted, the dust is closed, there is no spot. Remember that!
That is all living in affliction. Turning through the turn is to touch the clutter it is filled, and more and more it thicker dust. So, the more deeply sinking, the more scary! Call it live far away from the Dharma. The Buddha does not teach the monks so.
These are the right words, straight words of Quy Son, say the truth without stroking.Instantly speak the truth so that we know which to avoid. As the disciples Tathagata that live far away from the dharma, to dust ceiling fills, pollution cover what should say? Do we want to fall into that category? This is a reminder of Quy Son. Scene Book is so that, for a long time lashed a whip for the province.
What if you live like that? Open your eyes and turn to turn all the sticky where there is a place to be? Should call the place is stumbling. So the end result is the scapegoat to be hurt! I should be the stepping-stone, the master of God; Blessed is Heaven, but contrary to the contempt of the people are really painful!
Master Huyen Giac also have their instructions that:
- You are a monk like a prisoner to be out of prison, must be less willing, know enough, do not be involved in the honor, rich and spoiled of the world. To be hungry, to be thirsty, to lice where not. Being in the Dharma, even when nine parts are dead, a living part should not be thrown away.
Remember that. I am a monk, like a prisoner, who is out of prison. Being in the Dharma is too precious. Even when called when the most human birth, nine parts die a living part also do not throw away.
We take their heartfelt words to always be self-conscious, to live how can not she just come out of the ceiling, nor to be known as the silver ten-dollar credit, all four silver grace facing the parents, teacher you again!
We have to make one go out is to go straight, not to leave and bring the back. Dare to suffer hunger, to thirst, to the place where no micro. So I feel, to see the true benefits of the monk. If not, then she added that she is bare, so the benefit of the monk is where?
Mr. Chow's words about the benefits of the monk:
"The great virtuoso has said:" Those who belong to the first rank are the one who left home. " Folk also have a message passed down as a monk, the parents are nine generations are freed. These words all praise the monk but not clearly the benefits of the monk. So where are the real benefits? Did not need to plow the field, weaving cloth also eat rice, clothing is the benefit of the monk? Or say no need to buy a house, rent room also have the main place is the benefit of the household should not it? Or to say that the king, mandarin advocate, Buddhist offerings. In the absence of misconduct, under the harassment for the people, playing the game is the interest of the monk?
The ancients had a verse:
A grain of credit,
Worse mountain Tu-di.
If not yet,
After making a buffalo horse! "
If we do not need to do the plowing, we do not need to weave cloth but also have enough rice, clothes, it is the benefit of the monk. So whether we eat rice, clothing or because there is no home where the family? Not so.
The monk should remember that a grain of rice monk candidate is heavier than the mountain Tu-di, if the practice that will not be directed will have to make buffaloes, horses to repay.
It is the verse of the ancient Duc reminds the practitioner to be very careful, because the grain of the credit is not very often. Do not see the food available to eat is often considered pain.
There is a story that the teacher told his doctor to wash. The practitioner dabbled in the washbasin, but why did he rise up, crushing down. He did not step down.
Suddenly, the teacher came out and asked:
- What are you doing?
The disciple said:
- This yummy meal is so up to date, always get up, I grabbed the stone down but not down.
The teacher said:
- Come on, get some grain seeds tied into it, he will sink.
The disciple who obeyed, he immediately sank.
The teacher reminded him,
- You see? The rice of such heavy credit.
So we eat the grain of credit, it must be very heavy, so how to eat pepper?
"Saying again:
The next day,
He demanded rice,
If you do not practice,
How do you pay?
One must remember carefully, not after day after meeting King Pluto will claim money rice. If you do not worry about spirituality, how do you pay? At that time, it was late!
These are sincere words, earnest of them reminded us cultured we must know how to cultivate. Do not know what to get back to repay.
So, Mr. Chau continued: " From that can see, if the reverse is a whisper brought a major disaster, said nothing to benefit . " The monk who is such a manga, not exactly that the benefit of the monk is strictly religious.
"The benefit of the family is to destroy the defilement, the ignorance, the birth certificate, the willow birth death. This is the most beautiful celestial human life, and the new clan parents can be shaded by virtue, grace of his. If not, then rich money, chest, silver, was the National Honor to seven generals also have no benefits worth mentioning. I am very scared, because of this disaster, and at the same time alert you to each other. "
That is Chau Hoang reminded kindly. He said that I think about this concern that the pain that prompted them to alert each other to move forward, not to leave the family and become a disaster.
We have to remember these things to remind ourselves to carefully cultivate, can not leave the family and then fall into disaster can not say!
"'Kia was a man, I am not the same', so do not despise yourself but retreat. If not, the bed in the door, permeate for a lifetime, is not useful.
On Quy Son Mountain, like a whip for a strong whip. Here he stroked back. Essence is for the practitioner we wake up, go beyond the ceiling that has long buried themselves to say such things. Not to say so is to lower the monk, or to humiliate his head, but to remind us not to fall into the category of people as mentioned above. His mind is like that!
Italy wants us to ring the hard to rise, overcome the difficulties that come, so that the more resilient the will, not to say the nuance that makes us weak, bad.
As the saying goes:
Merchants for whips,
Hate to sweet for bùi.
We can see the sincere heart of the postmodern family of Quy Son, so respectable!
In the front there are many passages he said very strongly, like whip for pain. See that thought he was blaming. But do not understand like that then become retired, into the humiliation is misunderstanding!
Here Quy Son Son said: "Kia has a man, this is the same. You can not despise yourself, but lose yourself. "
He said that those who go before the practice, have achieved enlightenment on the path of enlightenment, then here too, can also practice, can achieve such results, is not bad.This is encouraging, not letting go. Because the previous steps have mind, then here it is. You have the Buddha nature, we also have Buddha Tanh. So what about the real thing is nothing else, nothing more than poor. It is a place to believe to be strong. Must have such confidence of confidence.
As the Sixth Patriarch first came to see the Five Fathers. At that time, the Sixteenth was a new twenty-year-old woodcutter, from the remote border region, formerly Tan Chau district - the South, where the corrupt officials were exiled.
A woodcutter of the countryside, in remote areas, is illiterate, but meets a high-ranking Patriarch of Hokkien so he is not timid shy, very brave courage. He said to the Pentecost: "People have North and the Buddha's nature with the Venerable is not different." He is full of confidence so sure. True to the sentence "Kia has a man, this is the same". We must also have such confidence to move forward.
Mr. Lin also reminded the students: "The learner does not receive the disease now?Illness is not confident. If you are not confident in time, then the whim of the scene, moved by other scenes, not free. He said that cultivators lacking self-confidence should not receive the truth, and then, in the scene, be transferred.
"Hey meditators! Do not be wrong! We do not see the life of thousands of Samsara in three realms, according to good scenes dragged, born in the belly of the buffalo, donkey belly. " That is right here without light this truth, reincarnation in the three realms;Sometimes when the scene is good to drag, there is a birth in the belly belly, donkey belly is really a pity!
Here, Quy Son Son said closer than if otherwise like the bed in the door to escape through a lifetime, it is not useful.
This is the sixth time Quynh Son reminded us not to pass useless time. Thanks to learn the teachings of the patriarchs we take it to remind ourselves to foster progress. In order to do so, each person must have full confidence in himself, in order to transcend mundane thoughts. That is to say, even noble ones can not be buried in these secular worldly minds, such weak thoughts.
Mr. Huyen Sa - Teacher, while still in the Assembly of Mr. Tuyet Phong, one day Mr. Tuyet Phong has just said:
- At the moment, why not go consultations where?
Legendess:
- Đa-ma not come to East, the Second Patriarch did not go to Tây Thiên.
He did not come to China, but the two did not go to India. This is the confirmation, full of confidence where you have a big job already, not to look anywhere. Dame-m did not come here to transmit anything else, the two did not go there to bridge. Confidence in where you have enough of that.
Understand that we have seen in every one of the big business, it is super world out of nothing, then why do not we accept to progress? Left to submit to the dusty road, buried Tanh linh stars? We need to re-look back, we have the confidence to rise up, to be the way of life in the faith, can not support the deep grace of the Buddha. That's what we have to see again.
"Looking forward to fierce competition, open the whole world wide."
Quy Son Son graciously encourages people to play aggressive, aggressive and can not be hesitant anymore. Determined to go on the steps of enlightenment liberation, not to lose ignorance, afflictions. It means to cultivate to the place, to be the way out of his.
Then we have to open the whole world wide, that is to clear up their minds, clean out the confusion, let go of the barriers to open the whole world wide open. If these things close the door of his heart, even if the door to knock on the door is useless. The heart is willing to expand, just tap one light up.
The meditator has the sentence "Land of the mind if not the sun of self-projection . " My mind is empty, the sun of wisdom shines through, so I do not have to look anywhere.How can it be empty, is empty, the mind is bright. So practitioners need to understand this weakness to practice properly, do not let the heart that obstructed the obstacle.
"Action must look to the top, not the trivial. This must be definitely, no worries of anyone else.
Listen to these words we see more penetrating. He taught how to compare to move forward. Look to look to the upper level to see the noble way of learning that, to move forward. That is the way to learn, to see. Remember.
Brothers and sisters how they progressively spiritual, ham. But I am so happy, so embarrassing; or look up old ladies like that but also diligent practice, regular course; I was young to make an excuse to rest. Look to look at the top, look up on the person to book yourself.
On the other hand, the person who has the mind of self-expression is self-consoling. If you look at it that way is going down, not going. So he reminded not to imitate the mediocre category and then go down.
Like Mr. Trieu Chau, when he was ordained in a pagoda and went to study. Once back to the monastery visit the teacher. Relatives heard him on the abacus tomorrow will come to visit him. Listen to her calculations so, early the next morning he packaged ahead, not letting the world feel trapped. These are the steps that we need to look to follow. Do not compare the other brother to visit the nostalgic then I also visit. Compare that look down, look mediocre.
Then Zen master Dao Nguyen is the founder of Soto - Japan. After spending some time in China, he returned to Japan to stay in Vinh Binh pagoda, at which time he was about 48 years old.
One day, there was a disciple who was glad to say that a general of the army was about to offer a large piece of land for the monastery.
Unexpectedly, as soon as heard, Zen master Dao Nguyen not only wrongly stripped him of this but also kicked out of the monastery always. But still not finished, he again sent people to dig deep into the floor where he often meditate daily, to throw out all that land. It is strict.
Then he said to them, "Stick to the fame worse than the world. What is the scope of the law (ie what is prohibited in the law) only suffering for a moment, also attached to the reputation is suffering throughout life.
Indeed he was too strict, but also to be reminded of them. These are the mirrors that need to look up to learn. For people with mind to stick to the benefits of seeing such mirrors do not dare to mind.
Then this life must definitely practice, not dating this life alternate life. Must be clear for the moral, must have relatively elaborate peace of mind, there must also be liberation.Must be definitely like that, not cultivate slowly from the blessing, do good after the next life. That is called dating style.
Because liberation or non-liberation is by oneself, no one can liberate on their own, no one can replace their own. So who else waiting to worry about? Must have such strong soul to care for progress.
"Notice forget the charm, not the opposite of the ceiling. I do not mind, just because of a long time.
That is to let go of the mind not to release the coast to lose yourself, slaves in the scene. You have to master again so that the ceiling itself comes and it goes away, do not have the warm hospitality. It has come to invite, not to invite, that is led away customers away.
Without attachment to the ceiling, there is no mind on the scene, on the ceiling, the mind is not calm. That is to come to the bare, then go, there is nothing stick empty mind.It is not the mind that does not destroy something for it, but the mind that does not have any attachment. That is liberation.
On the contrary, the monk who lung lung mind to run according to coast, follow the ceiling do not stop the slave to the ceiling, then plunged into birth and death. It is living slaves, but living so will be busy so be prevented, not smooth. So do yourself a favor but no one else do yourself. So do not blame this person, the other star just cause yourself to be bothered, but honestly re-come back, see the truth and then blame themselves to go up.
Abbot with words:
Unclean mind,
Capital is self.
Only leave hope,
Just like the Buddha.
If our mind is not infected, then it is clear that the capital itself, full availability is not lacking. It is pure self, so just leave hope as it is like Buddha. Despair is not to follow the ceiling, the mind is not calm. It is a place of genuine life.
Should be clever to understand, so carefully to progress. Strong mind, definitely decided to liberate this life, not dating the choice. So, on the way, we will have good steps, tasted part of the taste of liberation, enlightenment. Then the new life of each new meaning.
" Take a look at this text, always reminded. To be strong, do not follow the mistress.
Here, Quy Son recommends that we study the text of this Book, then apply the scene to ourselves, the core is to be clear to realize the truth. That is to know the truth, the fake then strong master again, do not follow the mistress that lost her.
This is where we have to be very careful, because not clever lack of self-control is dragged by love. At the beginning we have cut off the love to go to the monastery, now now let the nose lead the nose, is that? That is where we must always remember, to remind ourselves to be wise again.
As Van Chuan Master, at the age of 8, he met Mr. Ho Phổ to the alms house. Reciting the previous grace as had been ordained, so I asked his parents to follow him to the Phổ Temple always.
About the pagoda, but must prepare the results, but not be ordained. One day, Mr. Pham Cong was the strategist of Shaanxi land to visit the temple. At this time, Mr. Prussia because of old talk less should only respond to neglect. At that time, Vien Chieu stood next to him instead of explaining somewhere clear, back to the rules.
Mr. Pham Cong feels so admirable, want to lead you to Shaanxi help advance. Mr. Van Chuan refused, said: "Up the mountain is to pearls, also into the sea to find the world, each has his own lice. Learners have a good conduct, the beauty in life is not the heart.He refused.
That is to see the teacher Van Chau as a child that has the mastery of himself, not to follow the love to be dragged.
Today, looking back, sometimes we are the people in the temple for many years that the real master does not have, also often with the mistress to be dragged away. That is embarrassing. Therefore, we must remember to prevent it!
"When it comes to karmic retribution it is difficult to escape. Harmony is good, straight is the ball right. Knows well not to fear? "
Quy Son again kindly remind us to be very careful about causality. Cause and effect is not the game, like the picture, do not hide where. So meditators need to learn carefully, to believe in new and not dangerous. If anyone temporarily understand the cause of enlightenment and not believe in cause and effect, then it is not good.
Therefore, Venerable Hsu Yun teaches clearly to those who want to practice meditation, the prerequisite is to believe in causality. He said: "No matter who is, if you want to use the practice, before you need to deeply believe in the cause. If you do not believe in the cause and effect, then the practice is not successful, but it is difficult to avoid.
That is his advice, which is also the scene of the sage. They see the harm should only teach us, need to know to keep careful. That is to say, the human of the perpetuated by the mistress is the result of the love is submerged. Cause and effect together. The human that does not worry is the result that birth and death sink. At present, running the fame, the result is a severe suffering. Cause and effect are not afraid, do not worry! That is the kind words reminded him!
Assuming hundred thousand lives,
Karma has not lost.
When the conditions meet,
The panic again.
That is the shelf in the Causality. Businesses say the result of each other as the shadow in the picture, do not despise.
There is a story in Kosmir where a Buddhist monk, he practiced meditation for quite a long time, also has some special powers such as divine powers ... He knows the thoughts of others, Remember the previous life, guessing the future, ie the network information, tha consciousness know all.
One day, he is setting fire to the dye. At that moment, suddenly a farmer passed by, they lost the cow should run together to find. When one came in, he was cooking a pot of reddish water, and looking into the pot, he could not see clearly.
- Everyone, come back here, hurry! This old man catches his cow, is cooking pot soup here!
The other finished listening to run away, also did not take a close look at this monk to take away.
At that time, the monk remained silent without saying anything. The peasants felt that this was the case, so they did not argue. So they dragged the village teacher, then presented to the village chief.
He did not ask anything at all, immediately believe it. That night they accused him, shackled him and put him in the dark pit.
The monk's student tried to plead, but the monk remained silent without saying anything to justify himself. So, everyone is supposed to be guilty.
A few days later, people found the cows stray somewhere. Then the whole crowd panicked, pulled to the house of the predecessor asked to release the monk. But the preacher wants to avoid responsibility, only through subordinates. This subordinate assumes that it is not his responsibility, also only for the third, fourth, etc., in the end is not resolved.
Over the course of six months, the monk's students sought to return to the capital to meet the king, and to present the matter to the king. This king believes in the law of cause and effect, listening to the story is very afraid, think of the consequences of the people involved will bear the consequences. Should order the immediate release of that monk and take the capital to meet the king.
The monk was released to the capital. The king invited to sit and ask to see if a wrongly religious practices such a virtue, the king must redeem himself? Then how should people deal with this?
"There is no need to punish anyone," said the monk. This is also the suffering I have created so I have to bear the results so.
King asked the reason? The new monk explained that in one of his past lives, once he had stolen other people's cows, they were chased by villagers. He ran into the yard of an old man, abandoned the cow and fled. The villagers accuse this old man of stealing a cow, which causes the old man to be accused unfairly. The old man was hungrily cured for six days, so he was sentenced to six months in prison.
From then on through the countless lives, the coast that full meeting to repay this debt.So the monk paid off his evil deed, and grateful to those involved who helped him repay the debt gently. So how can you recite hatred anyone?
We see the person who knows the cause of the cause, and then relieved his mind a lot.If people do not know the cause and effect, then it will resent people who have cooperated to harm themselves. The more hateful the more resentment, oan left to continue to the next life. Here, thanks to know the cause and effect so he does not hate anyone, right then is open!
After saying this, the priest greeted everyone and returned to the forest. Shortly after, he attained Arahantship.
To see the cause and effect is clear, according to the Buddha is like the shadow picture.Previous to make the old man to be jailed for six days so now must be unjustified but up to 6 months, the time is wrong.
So who, who is understanding the cause and effect, must take that experience to be very careful, do not ignore cause and effect, do not be born, after repentance not timely.That is, we have learned a lot about cause and effect, understand the birth or the bottle became full of fear of cause and effect, it is very dangerous!
Each person should be very careful about cause and effect, when encountering the scene or good, or bad, pros or contrary to himself, also calm discernment, taking cause and effect to see thoroughly, so that his mind will be removed. open a lot.
When there is a favorable scene, we also know that the cause and effect of the good people have created their own, but also what, so the heart is not arrogant. Therefore, the good does not make me more offensive; Then meet the scene as well, must be according to cause and effect.
For example, we do not behave badly to anybody but why do people behave badly for themselves? They also have to look for karmic cause and effect. Surely there is also the bad man he created before, so now he responded. Know that then I practice more to transform, not to get into resentment and further left the Left.
Thus, the mind is also gentle, because karma is very fair, not affection, not biased anyone. People have feelings should have bias, but causality is not biased. So, for causality, there is no reason to cover or to escape.
That means for causality there is no reason for this I do not have fault ..., but to use the mind to see, know clearly. I have to know how to get to change, do not shirk responsibility. So Quy Xo reminds us to know the cause and effect clearly to be careful!
" Know the penalty in the three realms wrapped, killing people. Strive hard, practice diligently do not let the hours pass. "
Cause the three realms do not let anyone! Stay in these three realms is also suffering the birth of samsara, so called penalty in the three realms tightly wrapped, killing people. Because the three realms also call the prison of the three worlds, in this is still subject to punishment in this life prison. Therefore, in the business clearly stated: "Tears are more than the tears", or "Blood spilled more than sea water," to see that living in this is subject to the pain of birth and death do not have What fun! So the understanding of religion is to deal with great deal, is the big birth and death is not delayed.
Here again, Quy Son again advised me to practice diligently, not to let the hours pass.From the beginning he came six times seven times; Do not have to let the day pass, live in vain. That is to work diligently practicing, living without any effort to create sin is how much precious time, and then bring back the cause of suffering again. It is a pity, it is a pity !!!
If so, the practitioner liberation, but do not see where to escape but find suffering, find afflicted in sin. At that time, who is responsible? So Quy Xooshi reminded me to be industrious.
"You know deep guilt, new advice to practice. Hundreds of thousands of lives, where you work as legal friends.
Quy Son Son reminded us, because he saw clearly these sins so kindly advised the practitioner to prevent avoidance, do not step on the dangerous path.
This is for the sake of the learner, for us not for him. Do not know if anyone can see His love? Then we deeply experience the sincere feelings of the Quy Son.
Then he again vow to one hundred thousand lives, where he is a legal friend with everyone. That means no matter how long it will not leave us, always praying together as a legal friend. Listen to these words we do not have a little heart? His earnest, sincere reminder!
On the prose, here is the rhyme rhyme, to shorten the meaning of reminders easy to remember.
The illusory house,
In non-material things.
Always remember, this body is the body of illusory, there is nothing real, is the whole;Do not be crazy to take it. The world or three realms, like the dream house is not real, out there is nothing? If anyone recognizes it as my own, what is it called? Be honest to ask yourself.
Then "in the material things," ie the sharp objects nowhere in what is clinging? Also say it is not real. To this body, this scene too can not hold anywhere. Seeing as there is, grab hold of hands, lose all! So who is trying to grasp is self-suffering, because the impossible to grasp but try to grasp, then to be disappointed. This is called the attachment of the body as well as the place where the body.
These two sentences are similar to the meaning of the first teaching He also reminded: "Considering the bondage that takes the body, avoiding the suffering of the body." The practice is to discharge this attachment to beyond.
The front is not the same,
The following is not resolved.
At first glance, there is no place to start, which is called the front, and then there is no place to end, ie, to say that this reincarnation is uncertain, not real. Because it is uncertain, we can cultivate and liberate.
When you clean up the defilement, then that is the end should say uncertain. And if people do not know how to turn like that rotate forever not know where is the same.
To say that we live here is living in ignorance, living in the blur of their whole body, not knowing where the source is. But do not worry to be clear! That is where Quyen Son want to remind.
Come here,
Get up too hard.
This is said scene in the vicissitudes of going back and forth and then get up and down hard, nothing happy that ham in it. Sometimes when we are in the human realm and into the demon realm, come here! Or when the human realm, into the animal realm, into the hell realm. Or when the hell realm into the animal realm; If it is better then this human realm on the other realm ..., crouched not know where is the end. So let's say here on, down hard too. But do not know if anyone is hard or not? Considering that it is now that I live in the scene to turn the rhyme up and down forever?
It is thought that Quy Son should remind the practitioner to always look carefully so that the diligent effort to cultivate, overcome the path of liberation, resolve the birth of samsara.
Not from the rotation,
Ever stop?
Sleeping means turning the sphere in the three realms, not out of this round, must be subjected to this body and other body, come out and down, lurking in it never stop. It is called the great suffering of birth and death. And the hunger, cold cold compared to the suffering is also light, small.
We see that today we have the opportunity to meet the Buddha, to hear the Buddha's teachings about the truths of samsara, so that new religious practice to solve this great suffering. But do not go to the temple to do what? Do not you want to prolong this suffering forever? He reminds us to be careful to look carefully and care.
Worldly attachment,
Warm conditions.
Because of this worldly attachment to the world, it must be born again. What is this?That is the warmth of harmony that the body. Should this body called the body of five warm, or five aggregates.
Warm words are cover, which obscures the true human; Aggregate aggregates, ie, the accumulation of conditions, the afflictions, but not the self. Obviously, it does not have the true nature, there is no true self, but only because of hope, that is, that the harmony is temporary. There is something so attached to that! It is the intention of the Founder wants to remind us.
From birth to age,
Not at all.
I mean, there is no place. This body has been a warm year. It is a combination of warm years, not real. Then, from birth to age, there is absolutely nothing that can not be achieved.
Looking at the wisdom of enlightenment see human beings live in the hope. So the enlightened ones clearly see in this really is not real fall, so ready to let it without regret.And we live because of ignorance, hope should see the truth and then attachment to suffering.
This is something that from the Buddha to the Patriarch is always reminded that there is no one in it. No one is born, no one is dead, no one is happy, no one is sad, no one is, no one loses anything. Only the combination of conditions. Causality is called temporarily, the coast is called tan, but no one lost anything.
Sanh also, full of charm called birth, the coast of melancholy called death, but no one who birth death. Because ignorance, crazy island so I can see that it is me, then see the birth, there is death so miserable. In the truth, there is no one who gives birth to nothing, but a combination of five warm.
Seeing that, we release the suffering of birth and death. If in the sense of Bat-elegant, it is ultimately only nature. Where does it cling to, where to cling? The person who cultivates the need for liberation needs to see through it, to open up his attachment, to let go of all attachments, to put down this burden. That is liberation.
Origin of ignorance,
By the way.
From the original root of ignorance, ie, the cloak of ignorance does not see the truth, so He said people are enchanted. As such, the root is not true, our whole life here is also in the not real, instant crazy idea.
For example, when you turn on the TV, you see the scene in it, what is its origin? It is not true, how many scenes that are not real. This is also true, my roots are also not real, then a long line in life here too is not true. Seeing that place then to see the truth of his crazy, new fall into love.
Here ignorance but ignorance, then there is no root, which is not expected to start.Because if it is original, it is sincere, because it has no root, so it is called ignorance, is hope.
For example, dreaming, the dream is not the original. Do not sleep so sleep dreaming, find no real root. Because there is no root, then it is gone. Ignorance too, by any hope of initiation; When enlightened, it is out, not sure, there is no fixed. That is why we have enough faith to practice liberation, not to bow to accept the surrender it.
Unfortunately,
It is hard to know.
Time passes quickly, the birth of killings in each subtle moment, with the mind is so difficult to know all, is also difficult to predict.
Because its truth is very subtle, so ordinary people do not see, do not know and think it is real, it is normal; have seen the crazy island, new attachment, new craving in that there is suffering. And those who have attained deep meditation, they see clearly that in a moment blinked how many times the birth and death. Just to see this life is very fragile, no little sure enough. It can die all the time, unpredictable.
As I was sitting here, just came out to meet the breeze blowing, hit the poisonous wind can be sick and die; Encounters can also die. That means death has no predetermined level. What else is there for us to do?
To be so careful, the attachment of attachment. But it is difficult for the anesthesiologist.It's hard to say because they do not believe it. These are the great alarm bell for those who are still in the dream, must soon be awake do not be immersed in ignorance, spoiled life does not mean anything.
We must resurrect ourselves in order to see the true man and return to his true self, which is meaningful life. To live in a false, what is the intrinsic nature of what it means.That's where he wants to be reminded.
This time,
Life after burrows.
This life is not awakening to wake up to sleep in the confusion, the next time it blinded up again. Then do we continue to worry about such darkness forever?
We want to wake up we must be awake to wake up, do not bury in that again.
From enchantment to enchantment,
It is six enemy.
From this delusion to the other, so it is in the delusion. Where? By six enemies. Six enemy is six. Six ceiling: lust, bar, incense, taste, exposure, France. Six of the enemy took six houses as brokers to break into the house and rob the treasures. And if these six do not serve as brokers, six can not enter.
Should not be in the six ceiling or six that the fault is in the place where the mind is born, ie the charm. Because of the mind of the loss of self-nature and launching the coast should open the door to the new enemy. If the mind is not mistaken, then the ceiling is not available so what is not.
Actually where we are right here is the six foundations of his current, ie hearing, understanding for the six heart must be clearly clear to not deluded by grace. So, King Tran Thai Tong made six repentance penance is very meaningful, it is aimed at six grounds always come back to not love. That is the actual practice.
Six way back and forth,
Three beasts.
The six paths are the reincarnation of samsara. It means that when you are in love, then you create the karma. Create karma and go back and forth in six paths, but six lines are not in the three realms. To say horizontally, the six paths that go back and forth, if vertical, then the three realms crawl up and down. That is from the hell realm, then crawl to the human realm, sometimes when the cows to heaven, and then back down to the realm or back to the realms of hungry ghosts, cattle called cattle down.
Also say horizontally to go back and forth in six roads, go back and forth, rotate like a wheel so called cyclone Samsara because they do not know where the clue. That is the great suffering birth.
But still do not see how many people are bored! Even though we know that we understand the truth through the words of the Buddha, the teachings, but many people are not bored, if bored then surely right here, decisive liberation, and also want to last longer. crawl up and down! Do not we see that our work is very clear? Everyone needs to check themselves!
Ask the teacher,
Near the high virtue.
Quy Son reminds us when we can not close our eyes to live forever, but we must worry about the teacher to ask to know the way out.
Then near the high virtue, that is the experienced practitioners to learn, step on the way to liberation. We are the followers, not experienced so should worry about the wise, experienced first to ask, to know the way out, can not accept buried in it forever.
Release body mind,
Clears the thorns.
Thanks to such a level, then inquire, practice, clear the truth of the body and mind is no longer trapped confused mind and body again. Then also understood the thorns of long-term storage that cleaned up, the Buddha taught that the position.
The delusion, the thorns contained long in the heart that do not clean clean, then pick up, then the container is how to call the wise position?
What is the angle? It is afflictions, attachments, pollution ... Who contains more thorns then? Contains many thorns will be stabbed, scratched, touching is a story. Then the garden that contains thorns, the step is to pedal thorns, the landlord is suffering, but other people also suffering, always live in suffering, suffering. Then each of you to check yourself that contains a few thorns, to know how to progress.
Self-inflicted damage,
The coast conditions.
This world is from the unreasonable beginning of the real world. Which is the nature of the false is not true, then what is it?
As the pictures in the TV, open up there, off then where else how can it turn itself off? It is because people fool crazy crazy idea that it is real, so it is tight, it dominates. For example, the television show scene is also sad, tears, tears, happy scenes also laugh.That is it is transferred, is lost autonomy.
To revise us for life is the same, no different. This life is like the scene in the TV, but we also because of the scene it is tight, dominant. Confused
So here we practice the wisdom to see the truth to master again, not to be confused in it. When the enlightenment is the truth then the mind liberated, nothing except what? It is not real!
What crime do we have to let the fake it for ourselves? Commonly referred to as "stupid things to let those lie to you" right? But then we are also fascinated with it, to find that long-lasting mistake. So we need to look deeply to see that up.
At the legal level,
Enlightenment as ink.
Here Quy Xo remind us to practice is to consider the truth of the truth, do not see the false identity that forever. And here is to be enlightened to moderation. That is, it must reach true enlightenment. It means to clear yourself up, rather than stopping on the understanding of the external interpretation, or on the knowledge, the word. In the meditation house called "the fish forget" or "catch rabbit that trap ". It must be so, that is to know the truth, not jam on the media. Must be able to trigger the true position of no where. Must come here as such.
The scene is forgotten,
Do not write inscriptions.
The mind and the scene forget that the power of forget, over the mind treat. That is to leave all the traces of the scene from the outside, no trace of treat. There is no scene outside, it is not reported on anymore, so the place to burn, to engrave. I do not save the silhouette of what is considered to be here to compare all, the scene is forgotten then what to compare?
In the director of Ca said: "Psychology but death, footprints" : ie both mind and dharma forget it right away footprint. Go to that place and do not look for anything else. And if there is a mind that the scene is divided into two, the treatment is also blurred. This is all clean traces so there is nothing to write to carve, ie not save the silhouette here.
Six happy joys,
Stand silent.
At that time, the six baskets are happy, peaceful country. Standing still implies that the wind is born. Come to the new security, to hear all the liberation, a lifetime of wandering!Such is the real joy of liberation, no joy in the world can be compared. Then it is initially known that the suffering to end suffering is real happiness, not pessimistic, negative.
At the beginning, he said this body is false, the source of sin, so we feel like suffering, is boring. Because we must see the truth of it so that we will end suffering and reach the place of true joy. This is where the true joy. The way we go is so clear.
A mind not born,
All things are finished.
Say a lot, but when the retreat is "a heart is not born" is finished, the world is peaceful, is the self-end, self-peace.
A mind is not born is legal security, then we do not need to remove the law. So it is important that in this self-centered, "mind is not born" then the law itself, as self-security.
Faith Minh Minh called "a mind not born, the law is not fault". Thus, the error is not in the dhamma but in the mind. So a mind not born is like the law itself. Come here called mountains and rivers return to the mountains, not at all.
Weakness is only here. It is important that the mind of each person, we must clearly understand this practice.
What is the opposite of a born mind? A mind is not born, all things are endless; If the opposite, a mind was born, the package ran forever, wandering around the end of the road, the end of the alley. That's it! The fault is in this "mind", do not blame in France, in this scene the other; But right where this guy heart, only the face it is untouchable.The other blame is to open the door for it to deceive. Let's face it: "It's you who do not have anyone!" , Right then that. Seeing that truth, we see the weak point of our practice.So Quy Son Son end: "A mind not born, all the law is complete."
In a nutshell, learn Quy Son Canh To remind us to progress. It is not easy to see that being ordained is a good cause. Thanks to have planted this good from the previous life so this new, so do not despise it offline, it is really pity! Must remember.
We must be careful of this body is impermanent, fragile, not strong. There is nothing in me, mine, no one in it, it is empty. Because insane sticky island should be this obscurity it overshadowed his old wisdom, it is painful! Too painful!
Then each one must truly step on the path of liberation. The basic point is the need to practice, the practice of clearing the mind of nature, beyond the immortal love life that solve the great birth and death of samsara to not waste a lifetime of his. That is the point that all must wake up, reminded me!
Remember that in this long-lasting reincarnation, each of us has been through all the way, from the suffering in the hell to the joys of the heavens, each of us has gone enough, nothing short of.
Inspect your inner self, then see clearly, at some time the mind is very happy, very noble, like being in the heavens or gentle. But at times my mind is as dark as the animals, hell is no different, to see the seed in his mind filled up enough. The paths of samsara that we have gone through, then what else unfortunately not resolutely to overcome? Not enough here yet? Not bored? But want to stretch, crawl down down!
And finally, to return to a mind not born, all things have to end, not to add anything. This is the only place where I can progress. So each of us always remember to remind ourselves, do not let the time is over, the cause and effect is difficult to avoid. Cause and effect is clear, there is no escape. How to live smart return to your true self, do not follow the false. That's the mind. The way I go is so wise.
