There are some who believe that life is one long party, does not enjoy a drink. Therefore, they do not miss an opportunity that can provide them with material pleasures.
But
they did not expect the pleasures that it is false, fool, just like the
delicate pleasures of the thirsty to drink salt water, drink more and
more thirsty again; and throat, after a minute take on, again more
bitter acrid.
Business contracts which says: "Tears of beings more sea." Indeed! Unhappy eternity, eternity whole is suffering. Joys, if any, are only temporary, like a layer of dew glittering outside only; but the nature of eternity is painful. Eternity
is a sea full of sweat and tears, the beings that are swimming, short
of diving, submersible floating, floating roller. That is true. But
this truth, no one can see a thorough and speak clearly as the Buddha
said in dukkha, The first part of the Four Noble Truths.
B. Parent Thread
I. Defines Noble Truth (Dukkha)
Difficult to measure but the word dukkha. "DU", that is difficult; "KKHA" is to endure, patience is difficult. Dukkha means bitter; broad sense is what makes her uncomfortable, her pain, such as sickness, hunger, sadness, fear, etc..
"To" is a very sound, correct, complete, higher than both.
Noble Truth, the truth is right more than the firm about the suffering in the world. Truths it clear, transparent, no one can deny.
Here, let us hear the Buddha presented a thorough solution, insightful, meticulous about the suffering of the world.
II. Treatise on Suffering of the World
Tell all the suffering in the world, is never the same. Song based on Buddhist scriptures, can be classified into three size (three size) or eight sufferings (cup size).
A. Three stanzas: Three things are suffering: the suffering of pain, suffering and damage of suffering.
a) Size of suffering. The
pile up suffering the suffering itself has been suffering, but the
circumstances surrounding how to override the other suffering: it is
"suffering pain"
In
fact, every living being, himself was the victim of much suffering, so
bad; elected body is a dirty flesh and bones, if a few days, do not
care, wash up, then others do not rot can tolerate. Moreover,
the body was not solid, but on the contrary very fragile: the three
days of thirst, suffocation of five minutes, breaking a blood vessel,
infected with some bacteria that is toxic ... within the network.
Living
on the suffering sudden death that humans do not master, and many other
physical suffering husband, not so inevitable as disease, famine,
flood, fire, war, oppression, heavy taxes etc. .. So it calls "the
suffering of pain."
b) Hoai suffering. In economic Cone wrote: "For whatsoever things were formless must perish." Indeed, everything in the universe is the law of impermanence are dominant, does not exist forever. Tough as iron, perennial also decayed; large as the earth, moon, sun and disintegrated a long time. Weak, petty as the body, it lives again as short-lived, ephemeral! Cruel
hammer smashed all the time; every minute every second we live, as well
as every minute every second we are being destroyed. And
no matter how much power we have, how much power, how much wealth can
not discourage, not to resist destruction of our life time. utterly powerless against time. It is suffering, humiliation, pain!.
c) Conduct suffering . In
terms of material, one being external, dominant period, destruction,
while on the spiritual level, we are not even self-reliance, peace,
freedom is. our hearts are often tormented by desire, enticing, promoting every minute every second. I
also thought constantly change whirring jump from story to story, like
unbridled horses, such as ape tree line, never at rest. It is exactly as the Buddha's teaching: "mind who, mind code."
If
you consider more deeply, we see that our hearts may also be sealed
deep inside, beneath the conscious, the subconscious is dominant, the
wrong use an extremely intense in every thought, gesture of of us. we are angry, we would, we hate, we want this stuff, I like other stuff, mostly due to incorrect use our minds, the order.
In short, we are not free, it is dominated by the ideas, desires, the subconscious mind, and always take our orders. It is the "Action suffering."
Two. Hard Eight: if we analyze more closely, the suffering of the world can be divided into eight categories. Eight out of these three hard boiled cungk other.
Eight
kinds of suffering: birth size, age suffering, suffering disease,
suffering death, pain loving farewell, for sudden pain, resentment
chapter format, contingent liquidity plants warm. Here we make it clear that the suffering of eight.
a) Birth size: The human beings have two parts suffering: suffering of birth, suffering in life.
Pain during childbirth. He was born born and who are suffering at all. When
the new mother is pregnant began anorexia, insomnia, vomiting gagged,
but pushed, suddenly ... a great Thai daily, the mother each day tired,
heavy, difficulty walking, go to work slowly. Until near birth, mother's pain is not so said screw. Oil
is upon thai way, she also suffered several days unclean, weak for
months, because blood crystal attrition, the five organs deteriorated. There is paradox risk pregnancy, the mother must be dissected, much more painful. Sometimes after a surgical births were mothers suffer lifelong disabilities.
As children, since their conception until birth, are also subject to much suffering. Over nine months, ten days, children are confined in some dark, narrow, longer than prison! Mother of rice hungry, thirsty, then I in the fetus liquid hopper burn like bubbles Bubbles. mother fed the child was forced to hold the powder as mortar crushed under cutting boards, hard surface move. By
the term fruitful, friendly place I have to squeeze through narrow as
four tanks were pressed stone, so as just to escape, the store is wine
immediately: "Suffering a! Suffering a". It is true as two verses of Review As Much:
"No wonder at each new burial
Originally brought cries that out! "
Suffering in life. In terms of physical or mental, have much life miserable.
Material, requiring human necessities such as food, beverages, clothing, housing, medicine. Want
it needs, people need labor austere, pouring foul bait, hot tears,
bought the rice bowl, bowl of rice, clothing, broken coat. Housing, there is the struggle for life go to work, still not enough to build a small house.
But not to wait until a new scene called suffering hunger; erratic eating, is also suffering shortages then. There
have been all waiting for sun screen projection of land, or to call a
savage is suffering, not enough warm clothing, houses do not cover the
sun and rain, it also is suffering. But do not just poor people suffering? The
rich are also just as often suffering: want money, all to be gone up
early, make a frequency trading, top off the evening at work, sweat,
tears exciting to get it, but where should the money in falling out of
nowhere to where? It is also not to mention the suffering other physical abnormalities, but no one can be avoided.
On the spiritual level, there are many things in life torture, there is sometimes more painful than the lack of material. Not saying much, just send an application form here an example of the suffering in our study.
To find a reason, truth, morality, all working to learn a lot in terms of both theory and experiment. In theory we learn in books with him or study with you. On the experimental one very well see the suffering and difficulties. As
theoretical study with him at school, all very difficult to meet, the
more teachers teaching too high, the student is not picked up anything,
so who am so angry that people care too! Also
study at home with a book smooth, sometimes having passages expensive,
did not consult documents, blocked the exit, then turn angry sad heart,
is also suffering. On the experimental study in life, while very well have to pay a very favorable price. This
will be the fool, the other oppression, whether it hatred, contempt
other guys ... how many people are this much class temperaments. And understand that life is a part was how to endure humiliation and suffering.
In summary, material or provinces, life carries much suffering. Birth is suffering so.
b) He suffering. Ca dao which says:
"Old is devastated landscape scene
Old trees and stunted trees, old people who si ".
Old man's time, body wear, mental impairments, so physical and mental suffering.
Physical suffering. The older, more wear and tear of blood. Inside,
the five organs, the continent increasingly tired, weakly active;
external senses deteriorating, such as blurred vision, hearing, stuffy
nose, tongue, the trembling limbs, to with difficulty, whatever the
other guys a favor.
Even
more, when the weather is turning back the climate of sensitivity that
pain, as they have fever sunshine God only, God only had cold rain,
etc.. no little thing as fun at all!
Mental suffering. The ancients have said: "Most life, most humiliating." Indeed, many years, much flesh! Aging body deteriorated, the intellectual as well as obscure. Thus
was born confused, forgotten before, remember the following, fool act
like India, drinking dirty; speak the same insanity and told not to eat
food, not eaten food security; sometimes even name calling, saying
ridiculous nonsense for children. It is true that "Lao suffering."
c) Patients suffering . Abuse human body, making it nothing more than miserable pain! Scalp,
no matter what pain is, from the pain as Miscellaneous toothache,
headache, to severe pain as phung, labor etc. .. all to make people
groan, miserable, uncomfortable. Most are endemic (long
intractable), it will become increasingly austerities, bitter rice,
water choking, not for life, for death is not, unfairly unjust
government, it is suffering.
Body was hurt, but all the money back. There are many people who after a painful, only empty hands! So the proverb which says: "It did not hurt that much wealth."
In addition, the disease also makes continental relatives of sadness, fear. Each
time the house is sick, both families are animate, fret not sit still,
forget to eat forget sleep, lazy say, lazy smile, give up jobs. really true that "Dry".
d) from the repository. In four of impermanent phenomena; birth, aging, sickness and death, "death" is what makes the most terrifying beings. Human
fear of death to changes in life circumstances admit, life should not
have to do more, and yet heard of his death, and also afraid to think. The
bad people are sick of incurable cancer, leprosy, life is suffering
another day another day, so that the silver was still blessed to live
alone.
Death as suffering man like that who also fear that?
Of the body. There is a section size of patients dying with mortification when I know death is frightening. dying
people, does not prevent sudden fatigue, support the eyes, mouth
distorted, pulling almost transferred reinforced, bending his arms,
broken legs ... Meanwhile all listening ears, all eyes can see, all
breathing nose and mouth all talk. Try to touch the dead, found as the cold, stiff body like wood. bloated corpses gradually, in was disgusting and if for a long time to open up, foul fishy discharge extremely unpleasant.
Mentally. When
dying, mental disorders, extremely frightened: the merciful parents,
spouses, siblings, children from this break, a relative of his solitary
lo, step into the world blind alien rising from everywhere. It's nothing painful by the minute separation is permanent!
In
short, making the body the death disintegrate, leading to professional
consciousness as a realm of life at birth does not clear. It is "hard death".
e) Ai suffering separation. In the love between spouses, children, brothers are passionate, dearly that of separation, it was nothing more painful. The separation of two types: birth and death special glasses.
Cup of suffering beings. A
family are living in merry-making this a warm conversation, suddenly
Packaging circumstances required, or because a sudden disaster happens,
such as rebellions, floods ... make every helpless lost each place: who
this initial expectations, the other native mind waiting. stomach hurts really sorry! Worldly people often say: "Better leave death, but it leaves one birth". It is the suffering of the "Birth cup".
Distinct element of suffering. But although communal living apart but one day meet; but how childhood is dead vum that? So stand before the death scene, is a permanent separation, no one man is suffering ligament. Therefore,
this particular scene from the forest to have upset people were
merciful to forget to eat, sleep away, some pain, so desperate attempt
by the deceased died. It is the suffering of "farewell".
g) bridge sudden pain (disappointment). It was in life, everyone is hoping as many as very disappointing. Whatever the problems, some people are too rare contentment, that loser any way you want, is unspeakable. Want
to get good results, one must apply not know how much capacity,
tuberculosis care, damage location, loss of food, put to sleep, just
fast forward to the day so successful. Then, unfortunately things did not wish to, do not know where the pain is boundless. Below, please set up some examples of the frustration that the most common life.
Disappointed because the list. In life, fame is often a good bait that most people preferred death. But his prey, Where to warrior be easy? Not
to mention these guys skydiving, to make the turn off, so much or
failure, only refers to cases where those who seek fame way of
righteousness, and with energy, wit, their learning. For these classes of people, also to taste how the smell of failure, may eventually be a new success. It is true the words Wen As Much Nguyen Gia Thieu said:
"God fame, muddy gray color phase
On the sunny room ceiling burnt oil smell! "
Wealth disappointed. People were disappointed because of his many. But the number of people disappointed that wealth nor less. Want
the color rich, many people find this attempt to bribe him fool people,
but then copied cunning fraud bust, the assets were confiscated,
himself imprisoned, being humiliated by their families, to be suffering
!
Frustrated because of love. Of love is also what makes many people must be miserable, miserable. In the affair, try to get a few people have been fulfilled? Click the newspaper every day, stories of love obstacles lead to suicide, it's unspeakable. That is the "Bridge sudden pain."
h) resentment chapter format. I love people in the scene, no one wants separation, as well as in the scene than hate, no one would encounter. But instead of sick dread! In
life when looking forward to the encounter, the separation must, as
well as the desire to rid ourselves of, the collision have to live every
day! Separation of suffering to the two people love each
other like, they do not have to encounter the two men hated each other
for neither does he.
It
is often said: "Seeing the enemy, such as needle stick in the eye; in
common with adversity, like tasting honey, are thorns."
Not
to mention the case of strangers, even in the relatives of her family,
husband and wife, brother, when for some reason that was born at odds
with each other, nasty enough then. Want to flee each other, but each time and out again to meet each other forever! Decision not to talk to each other, which sometimes are not required to hold, be said with embarrassment. Concentration
must clean break, because there must be strict in eating flipped a
house, trying to avoid oil, but much time must also communicate so
poorly. It is suffering. That is the relative
hard gut and sentiment remains flesh, that the people, but also
encourage the more hated man wanted Dear all, do not expect to meet each
other instead! Let alone for the stop, water, other seeds,
other races, hate each other once they have it but to live side by side
is also a day how catastrophes happen. This is the meaning of "resentment chapter format."
i) Five warm slag suffering. The
four elements of the human body also known as the five warm (five items
cover): warm colors, feeling warm, warm thoughts, of warm and warm way.
With a staff body was warm, people are subjected to know how much is hard. Between staff was always warm there is a conflict, conflict, govern each other. Since the conflict, that conflict, so the new human being subject to the following blocks:
Governing
law of impermanence is constantly, from young to old, from strong to
illness, from pain to death, always made people fear, sadness.
Lost love, sex appeal record, cause people would take six bare, body and mind to suffering implications.
Disappointed
crazy form of attachments, so people recognize the wrong way: that we,
people, also, lost, wild wisdom, have not, and vegetable lo birth,
suffering.
MasterSergeant him as "warm slag Five suffering."
III. If Buddha Of These sufferings she to do?
Some people will wonder, wonder: Buddha raised Ultimately the suffering of the world to do? Life
was so miserable, you should hide or less as long as long as he, but
why do stripped it out for more and more people suffer? I try to create a nice illusion of life to live in peace, there are the better? A child living an innocent kid, stable marriage, because it is not known to the suffering, ugliness of life. Why should I not try to imitate them, do not know anything about the vicious, miserable realms of life, to live a happier life? Buddha is one who is often called the father of compassion, why do something so cruel?
The questions above questions, it seems to have heard of, but if you consider Ultimately, you will see they are shallow. Buddha did not raise these heartless when suffering basics of eternity; precisely because compassion that he do so. Buddha wanted to know the life of earthly suffering, because of the following major benefits:
A. Having no awful scene: The Buddha said that suffering in the agonies of a basic, no inevitable. Lived, doomed to see them. Does anyone not sick, not old, not dead? Does anyone not see life with familiar separation, not living with their enemies? Has anyone achieved all the things you desire? So
whether you want to create a beautiful illusion of life to live for the
peace, the illusion that, sooner or later will also be invisible truth
torn away! And then, the world naked, ugly, disgusting and
you get a very sudden way, firstly those who usually used to live in the
beautiful illusion. Then those unprepared to live a life
of suffering, will panicked, desperate and sometimes do not have the
courage to live again.
In
contrast, when we know this scene Saha has much suffering, they see
suffering, we are not so terrible, wandering spirit, on the contrary, we
will calm patience to find the solution drainage. Billion
as farmers, said his duty is struggling with deep plowing job plump
hoes, hand made fenders, new rice to live, should have poured rain
scene, did not flinch walker at all. In contrast, a mighty
precious silk used to live in, in the scene magnificent temples, risk
having their turmoil, sometimes rather suddenly, stabbing out his terror
and suicide risk.
Two. No part should demand from the dominant situation: When
we clearly know little sad life more fun, and everyone wants more, the
more suffer, knowing well that, we would desire of abstinence and we
will "know enough". Therefore, we are not the dominant
situation, do not pull away by the waves, we emasculated into the abyss
of the vast realm of darkness Saha. Billion as a wise man,
risk imprisonment, thoughtful design to escape the prison labor, and not
as fool, while in prison, only lo scramble over rice dishes, soup
residue but forget that he was brought executed, if not soon find his
next escape.
3. Strenuous practice to escape suffering: Once
you have your body size, and much less fun scene Saha, new human desire
to escape from his dark realm and live in a better realm. Like
children playing in the scene fascinated house is on fire, thanks to
who the father may sound the alarm, and rushing them to know their way
out.
C. Conclusion
Knowing the cause of suffering Must Find Out Suffering for the eradication
We have the Buddha of compassion specify realms shows that this Saha, as well as the three worlds are full of suffering. Lotus
Sutra also says: "The three realms are not safe, such as the burning
house," sorry beings ignorance, suffering as fun without taking itself
known, should have been damnation.
Now
we already know the ugly truth of your life, know it is a vast ocean is
always hard up waves, boring, you will have it, shun it. I know hard to weary, frustrated, give up arms sat weeping. But how to escape it, if we know the industry is not clear tops, paths, where is unknown because the arising of suffering? The good physician like disease, must find the root cause of the disease. A
good general want to eradicate than four rebels, must thoroughly
investigate lair, headquarters where they are, but climate can siege,
surrendered to catch them easily.
Also, that suffering is not enough to end the pain. Want to find suffering root causes of dukkha arises.
The
cause of dukkha arises, the Buddha preached in the second paragraph of
the four noble truths is the apron, but our readers will read in the
last third of this book.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY BACH LIEN HOA.( TAM THANH ).NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).28/3/2012.
