How to meet the Buddha?






Through the Minister find Buddha


Through sound find Buddha


Doing so is wrong


How to meet the Buddha?


During the Buddha's birthday this year, celebrating the occasion of Buddha was born in this world to save sentient beings, try to think: we have not seen the Buddha? If not, how can we meet the Buddha? Having to wait after the dead, reborn Western bliss, Buddha met the reasonable? There have only just met the Buddha Buddhists reasonable?


Or affordable: we all can meet Buddha on this earth, even in this life, no matter who is Buddhist or not Buddhist, regardless of that person or family at home? It seems everyone has these questions, so let's turn to find the answers together based on the teachings of Buddhism.


Almost everyone knows the history of Buddhist Buddha: his birth in the garden Lam Ty Ni, known as Prince Siddhartha, the son of the King and Queen Ma Section Gia, who ruled the kingdom of Ca Ty La Ve, of India now. He grew up, married, have children, as well as how many other people on earth. Then out of the palace tour, see the scene: birth, aging, sickness and death, of human life, so he determined to ordain clergy, to find escape routes and enlightenment under Bodhi tree. Then he moved the wheel of dharma, dharma being saved in 50 years, finally nirvana in Ta La garden. Thus, the Buddha has entered nirvana, Buddha we find where, how do we meet the Buddha?


Actually, we do not need to look no further Buddha, no need to go through India, or to meet Buddhist pagoda. Buddha always in life, even in this world, exists everywhere, but we do not see, because we view life through the eyes of flesh, but forget to use the intellectual eye, to observe what Hidden inside, or the meaning of the work. Where the statues of Buddhas, intellectual eye is represented by precious jewel in the middle brow, always light, meaning: Property registration often shown, that is often light intellectual light, and eyes meat, always closed, not hanging on the ceiling scene. Posted Tue often compare human life that is always aware, no confusion, no alluring sensual world, living in the world, but not upset, nor suffering. We have found through the living Buddha in all human beings. The silver eagle that lives across space and time, not limited in a hundred years of human life.

In everyday life, when dealing with contact people around, we often look at life with eyes of flesh, the flesh books called labels, so just see the outside appearance of the person, distinguish between men and women, high and low, good bad, young and old, big kid, rich or poor, sick sharks. Because people look so distinguished, so feel sorrow and suffering rather than peace and happiness. Why?


Because, when a distinguished look, people see only all the beings around, so start loves attention, make your life crazy island, restless mind. For instance, when meeting someone beautiful, resuscitation, or having something precious, rare commodity, the greed of birth, favorite spot, want to make your own possession. The gloating satisfaction, enjoyment, and not be as mind, consciousness, the hatred, hate, frustration, fuming. Such as having a poor, uneducated, then looked down upon consciousness, discrimination, cheap, also met the wealthy, educated, the desire, dreams, sycophantic. Such as having a fatty, laughing, having a thin, then processed. People often have a dream to be peaceful, but mind the scene on the ceiling to run away like that, whirring chaotic day, month after month, year round, how peaceful life, happy to be?


In the Kinh Kim Cang, the Buddha taught: "Ly Nhut set therein, the general marketing list." That is: When will forsake all external appearances, did not accept the appearance of this other world, we can recognize the Minister of all people. To minister is that? That's really are the true people of all people in this world. People that genuine uniform, not the other, irrespective of men and women, young and old, big baby, color, ethnicity, nation, language, religion, culture, class, origin, knowledge, academic, qualifications.


Everyone had the same minister, because love is not the same treatment, different karma, so other external appearances. Such as: The time involved is lying eye contact, the director, through the island, the island again. The anger is punished eyes rolling, drew fierce fire, tough. The delusion is lackluster eyes, silly.


From a Buddhist, not only offering opinions prostrate, begging prayer, pray for safety, peace bridge, bridge to bliss, to all kinds of talk, pray for happiness, represented the Minister, not nothing else! Not so! Buddhist practice is to end the mind-dues, attendance buffalo, buffalo mind, do not jog, destructive wild, people trampled fields, butting west is playing decent burst, every moment.


Buddhist practice is to find human truth, or enlightenment to his own generals. There really are no immortal beings. Enlightenment is the Minister shall escape birth and death, according to the teachings of the Buddhas tam. In human flesh, the body panels books called big four, only existed less than a hundred years more!


While normally, two kindred spirits, sociable, modest, cheerful, polite, not the other. When events happen, the nursing care that cultivate awareness, keeping the relaxed calm, do not start greed, hatred or ill will not start without starting center delusion. If someone completely preserve the pure mind, in all circumstances on earth, before the bowl style of life, whether or loss, whether praise or blame, whether permanently or humiliating, whether pleasure or pain, heart nature is always calm calmly, always smiled a smile of calm in order, that person is a Buddha.


A Buddha is not descended from heaven, not from the earth emerges. A Buddha bold parts of locations, such as the Lotus Sutra teaches, that is, from the place where the mind of every human being that the transformation, transformation of evil into good, converted from greed hatred and delusion pollution, or capital of the pure mind. A Buddha attained enlightenment from where people know from center nursing identity, the right-Fold Path, the true Dharma. Those who have not achieved completely so, are the ones who are on the way to practice, elaborate how much, she has found peace and happiness much. Rather than pray that van parked!


According to legend, when Prince Siddhartha connoisseurs, there are two naga spraying water to bathe him. A hot water spray. A jet stream of cold water. This deeper meaning is as follows: as well as Prince Siddhartha, who in this world, to bear the power of the two currents, floating heat cold patience, represents the pressure regularly and the opposite of life, such as: rise and fall, cancel plans, claiming the, hard touch, generally bowl style, that person is a Buddha in the future.


In the vast majority of life, when the event occurs, the mind immediately starts up greedy, can not stop, always thinking of the power struggle, harm their interests, incite harm another person, regardless of the paragraph, my post litigation, to dispose of assets, rights to possession, stealing hui delinquent debt. If the target is the millions of dollars, people treat each other more and more frightening, more terrible, not even including paternity, husband and wife, friends, teachers, siblings, friends and relatives at all , of human life, of itself be considered dirt cheap! Fellow, and you, comrade, comrades, fellow believers, fellow colleagues, the staff, no value at all, no sense at all. Only the money is, above all, is universal, capable of pushing, people dictate into a vicious circle very easily. Closed doors of heaven, gates of hell wide open from here!


When events happen, even one word innocuous, inadvertent neutral, or a small gesture, but self-love collisions, injuries of the human face, hatred or ill will immediately start up, can not stop, people immediately think about revenge, vengeance, as every way, making the enemy, I do not like, do not be quiet life, death is not complete, reclining tilt things stand, creating stories evil, making people falsely, shattered honor, ragged fringed te, ha, the new, new deal inch of your heart, mind being local, ordinary to death, deep dangerous evil, of a person. When bread forces rampage, despite Microsoft, Yahoo to heaven, the people turned tung, people dare to do well, no matter how the consequences! So therefore, many people lost happiness within reach, or to lose talented associates trusted, not only because of the ground attack was so restrained.


When events happen, people do not cooperate, not even with his back, his mouth immediately behind the spray of blood, no matter who laughed his dirty mouth, poke was stabbed with paddy rice, goofy enough stigma thing, the bar is to find deep or removes dirt out bugs, as long as shortcuts, never leave! Also due to mental delusion inducement, human beings flimflam, superstition, begging God, pray god, look for river wading streams, water, poor sanitation, for the holy water, treat the three diseases, What is this bridge, also brought about drinking, even for people that have more degrees, whether low or high, the outside world, or in the lead!


The Flower Adornment Sutra, the Buddha taught: "Nhut set period of organic beings Buddha Nature." That is: "All beings are visual identity." Everyone has sensory awareness, smart fellowship, not the other, called the Truth in the scriptures or Buddha Nature Center, but only because different karma, greed hatred and delusion are different, so are suffering distress also different, the external appearance is also different. Such as the moon always clear, no different, but every night there are many dark clouds, we see the moon faded much. Such as sea surface wind was still calm waves, peaceful, generous, vast, look away, that broad, immense floral bowl, but when hurricanes rise, waves to winds, dark skies, no also saw nothing. Moon clear, tranquil sea, represents the pure heart of everyone. It is also the human truth or Truth Heart Buddha Nature of all people. Clouds or waves to winds, symbolizes the suffering of suffering, cover partially, or hide completely the human mind is no longer clear whole again.


Thus, the question where to find the Buddha, how to meet the Buddha, it's too easy, anyone can answer. First of all, Buddha means Buddha, the Buddha had in history, was born in India, religious and enlightenment, more than 2500 years ago, right on this earth, at the plane that she is , not the other realms, not western bliss. That answer almost Nhut, simple Nhut, obviously Divisions. However, the books have a saying: "It has turned Nhut set origin", which means that the Buddha is everywhere, Buddhism around us, but we do not know, do not realize that only. That is the meaning of sublime mystery of the word "Buddha". That is the actual path, life is much help light of enlightenment and liberation, life is more peaceful and happy, people are more calm and order in, reducing the distress and suffering.


The books also have a saying: "Mind, Buddha, sentient beings, tam wealth gap." That is: "Mind, Buddha and sentient beings, all three are not different, no difference." Buddha and sentient beings obligation raw nature often empty silence, in prayer books known as non status. Heart of the matter does not contain any images of living beings in the three worlds, six lines, empty, silent, her mind is the Buddha mind. Text Organization also says: "Buddhism News Center, Center News Buddha," is meant that way.


When you see someone in the temple, imploring the Buddhas begging for this thing the other, rather the standing instruction: The communists seek Buddha Buddha! That is what Buddhas have left sorrow, only teaches us to practice law subject to free, to become a Buddha, we refuse to practice, to escape their own defilement suffering, whereas we beg invoke the afflictions, such as: money, fame, what is this convention, once four million profit, traders may sell dear, such a competition, unharmed, the higher the gate is wide, the last thing is for national rebirth bliss! Bridges are not, suffering is the sure! Cau any prime, ie not suffering wrong!


We can find Buddha images, through the legs from the school, to the full moral, is the fulcrum, the place specified threshold, to all beings find peace when close. We can find Buddhist around the world, where there is love reigns, there is compassion sympathetic joy discharge the money, is a Buddha in the right place. Any person who, though not a Buddhist, whether at home or Buddhist renunciation, which in a certain period of time, developed the Mind, open Heart Truth, observes a good neighbor, because people forget their , showing the center of four large: compassion sympathetic joy equanimity, is right in that moment, he is living with Buddhist center, like a Buddha. But after that moment of enlightenment, he returned to ordinary life, the Buddha mind back potential, waiting for another chance to develop. Buddha is fully enlightened being and forever, always awake and lucid. Other beings in that Buddha: just glow in the moment, and then immersed in the darkness of ignorance. Why? Because people can not afford beyond the three worlds, is not enough out of the house fire, not enough to resist the power of the buffalo's mind, means that people are "career mode cover" and often " know that the problem of "!


For a realistic and practical methods, in the everyday life of the Buddhists, in part or ordained, Text To teach: "We view Buddha born as living beings, so suffering affliction . Buddhas view sentient beings as Buddhas, so the self in nirvana. " If a thorough understanding, a thorough teaching this way, we immediately know how to meet the Buddha, Buddhist, or find where? We often think that the Western Buddhist bliss, Buddha in the temple, Buddhism in the books, Buddha statues in wood, bronze, silver, gold, or by painting. And all the beings around them all! Because look, I know, I think, such a concept, so people have a lot of suffering affliction, not so inevitable, never-ending.


People do not know that yourself with Heart Truth, Buddha Nature, and everyone around us is the same thing, not the other. People wearing glasses being, ie looking at life through the center rings, so look everyone can see is just being, look who just see the bad habits of them, look everyone can see hateful, look everyone can see considerable precautions, anybody that wants to look away from, but never, look at yourself, whether good or bad, so have many, suffering affliction, and then wait for death, drag on Western, Princess of bliss , to meet the Buddha, how to meet?


But the Buddhas and enlightened people, that support religious nature center, wearing glasses serene view life with a pure heart, look around and see someone who is their true mind, Buddha Nature, seeing everybody generally around and understand that they are buddhas will become in the future, near or far depending on elaborate practice of each, see everyone around also know they have it than his worth to his study, looking at who around to see who is true man, not man is obnoxious minister involved, not the general people's awful tough pitch, not the general human si naive naive. So that the buddhas and enlightened, nursing care that cultivate awareness, always an order in nature, calm relaxed, the realm of nirvana is money. We have enlightened, peaceful new life and happiness as such, the new release from suffering and pain. Life meaning, life worth living, from here!

In summary, the Kinh Kim Cang, the Buddha taught: "For whatsoever own minister, the period of expected market failure. The bad reviews rather general comments Tathagata ie non-general". That means: whatsoever in this world, whatever may have damaged the general outlook, which date must be spoilage, decay, including Buddha statues, whether made of whatever material, too, of elements including body panels, after hundreds of years have also left. If we look at people, not by external appearances, regardless of discrimination, prejudice is not unfair, then we will see the Tathagata ie Buddha Nature Center to see the Truth, and of his people, uniform is no different! It is human truth, no birth no death. Reviews enlightened Tathagata ie, an escape from birth and death.


Also in Business Kim Cang, the Buddha taught:


"The bad reviews certainly fall colors.


Sure sounds to fall.


South multiplication of the pagan.


Tathagata disability reviews. "


That is: If someone looked through appearances, appearance, or by sound, but for the Buddha, or the appearance that there is such, that sounds so new, is the Buddha, the person is on the wrong track , lost, unable to meet the Buddha, the Tathagata can not see. In other words, people who thought: Lord Buddha more, ie appearance, many chanting Buddhist, that is sound, then to see the Buddha, Buddhism dreamed of, such people, not knowing what, is the wrong direction, how to understand the Tathagata? Why? Because, only Tathagata Buddha or emotional nature, invisible formless, no appearance can be seen through the eyes of man meat. So therefore, like to see the Tathagata, to meet the Buddha, one must develop prajna wisdom, to realize true human, recognizes Truth's own Buddha Nature Center and the people around them one.


In Business Prime Surangama, and the Kinh Dai Bat Nirvana, the Buddha taught: "Birth registration kill kill, kill the current president of money, delivery of course kill kill, kill president of communications." That is: When does the human mind, the whirring no confusion arises, such as the concepts involved, field conception, conception si, start up and then settles down to call is being killed, immediately put away at birth over, no longer that peaceful quiet mind, no disturbance, no unrest, calm relaxed, calm yourself in, so called: passed away the money, because lost or passed away, that is the scene world peace, nirvana itself in, is right in front. The mood of insecurity because of the concept being killed, called beings. Mind being killed kill it, no whirring chaos again, become the heart is not president, empty and citizenship, completely pure, namely: a pure heart or mind of Buddha.


So want to see the Buddha, we just need to practice the method, even Zen, Pure Land, or esoteric, ie: meditation, meditation, walking meditation, meditation posture quartet, singing songs, Buddha, maintain focus, to the ultimate level, to obtain the "heliocentric any disorder." At that time, we encounter not only Buddhist, but we have the whole of the Buddhist Religion so.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY BACH LIEN HOA.NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).
