V.LESSONS QUESTIONS FROM''THE BIGGEST ENEMIES OF LIFE''

Through what we have on this analysis, especially based on the Buddhist-Soul, we can draw the following lessons:

1 / LIFE is impermanent, JUST LIKE Dream = Understanding of selflessness, our implementation is largely self France. Everything in this world only by the grace of, we penetrated the impermanence of the earth.

Men and women have different flowers. At the new rose bud looks really cute, and then from the start it until it looks blooming lovely, with gorgeous scent makes people thoang I fainted. Then the petals and deep wrinkles with acrid acrid smell to finally wilting flower, the petals fall gradually. This is the civil law, based, vandalism, destruction of creating h box ; no one avoid off! Clearly understood as such, it has not been put in the mind, not unhappy when impermanence of our application. there and take it. different life with a ton of pottery have enough joy, anger, love, staining we are just actors, just as the audience. Assigned positions that we have more than a drama that we play directors, ministers, prime ministers, the president ... in the year, ten years. When the curtain, we were civilians again. If we try to cling to the that role, we thought it was real, it is permanent, then you take it, we will be very sad.

Venerable Master Hua is teaching: "Remove tops the original run, get to the real author, is recognized as the enemy. Who does not wake up, still living in a dream and attachment of the dream realm. " Do you ever think you're living in a dream as big as the dream fable Nam Kha in Vietnam or not? There you will protest immediately. Ridiculous! If I'm dreaming, I pinch the meat in the know pain, I hit his hand hard on the table saw, my contact with people and have felt happy contact, sad, angry, hate ... Even when I'm crying, my tears flow. How do say is fake? So I ask you, you are sleeping at night in bed and dream of a nightmare, your extreme fear and tears, you light up your knees wet. Such as in a dream, you see, are really living your life like that. If you know it's fake, you have woken it!

Thus, Diamond Sutra ends with four shelves are important:

"Necessary legal compounded translates as "All compounded

Nhu you, Huyen, Bao, Anh Nhu you, Gia, bot, Bong

such as herons like to reveal e n as well as flashes of lightning mist

improvisation as market consistent " should initiate such custom "

"Friends of" what is all generals should look impermanent and birth and death. All compounded things are like dreams, are authors such as bubbles when rain falls on the road, as the shadow people and things in the wall in the sun, like dew drops on flowers morning, as well as power flow by lightning flashed when going to rain. Let us often think of life as such. There is nor there, "not without sharp sharp! In this world, where nothing is stable, where nothing is immutable. Quan thus, we are new surrender Center, New Center of dwelling.

Often when that dream a beautiful dream, I want it longer. Conversely, when having a nightmare, I want to wake up quickly. Thus, happy people living with fully furnished material not usually think of spiritual practice. After all, this world, where nothing is sure? Even the floor, the road that we thought was solid when, standing on it to open up when the quake, recently appeared hell holes in many places, especially in China. Before the natural disasters such as hurricanes, tsunamis, floods, volcanic eruptions, forest fires, earthquakes, meteors, epidemic ... I feel so small. When given the opportunity to sit on the plane and looking down, saw their homes, cars no different from children's toys and people can as small as ants. Also, on this earth, no place is really safe when outside the aforementioned natural disasters, human beings are causing the terrorism war to kill each other?

All what he thought was his, is certain, that could endure forever collapse, disappear overnight. Therefore, in the Lotus Sutra, Buddha for this world as a house that people burning themselves playing in it as childish. According to the Mayan calendar, Doomsday (Doomsday) is dated 21/12/2012 when a giant asteroid bumped into our earth. Hearing this, are we do not have a response back? For me though this is true or false, here is a warning to mankind and advised people to love one another, "hidden, in healthy" because only new merit ear to help people, the victims from . Faced with natural disasters, epidemics, war, all we can do nothing but what we can do, it is on ourselves. We can prisoners, merit to be able to alleviate the karma that we ought to pay, as our ancestors used to say "Germany to win some." Anatta is on the absolute selflessness but Russian is fairly fake fall on the side. Relative and absolute are two sides of one reality. Through life, even love expectations, illusory, relative, we must have a duty to prevent the evil, so do the good because "human authors but also counterfactual" and karma will follow us like shadows with right image in a dream. To edit your application in good standing, we should remember what a Tantric Master taught: "Be always aware of the illusory dream life to reduce craving and hatred. Let's have a good mind for all species, have mercy mind whether others treat you like. What else do not matter to you when you see as illusory dreams. The main point is that you have good intentions in a dream. This is key. This is truly Tu Tam. "

2 / DO NOT ego = Buddha advised us not to see that "own" is real because it causes any problems as described in the "weakness of the ego" (III 2b), so it is not his enemy or what?

3 / Please return WITH GENUINE ESSENCE, THAT is Buddha nature = Knowing the "own" is what "assume", we will turn to what we "have it" to be happy forever. That is the Buddha nature inherent in each of us. The Sakyamuni, who tell us that the true value of our by declaring: "I am the Buddha, sentient beings will become a Buddha." I recall a fable about true self in Indian philosophy: There is a lioness about to give birth pregnant but hungry too so nibbled the village. When the stream, mother lion labor and delivery and a lion. But the lion exhausted mother had died on the banks of streams. A goat shepherd boy discovered the arrival of the four tri shouted. Villagers to take the lion mother and lion owners. Lion raised in his herd of goats and goat thought. One day the princess lion seeking prey, beside a stream to drink. He herd goats and goat hide away in fear when the lion looked around, asked: "friend, friend." The male lion was surprised, just angry lion went near and said, "You are a lion is not easy!" Lion constantly asked: "friend, friend." God was very angry lion grabbed the lion neck then dragged to the banks of streams senh Shakespeare, thrust his face close the water and said, "Take a close look to see if you are?" Lion roared inspiration from his face and a hours. Forestry has the image of God!

This story is to say each of us descended from the Buddha, but we thought ourselves as living beings. We do not know or could not believe this is like my lion is thought to date is easy to master God said that death as well as the Buddha tell us of the dignity that each of us.

Some people wonder why I sure do not see the Buddha Nature? This is difficult because the Buddha Nature and the absolute formless so even Buddha can not use words to express, which can only indirectly used as "finger pointing the moon." Do you ever look directly face you? You must use a mirror, then see the shadow of it, right? Soyal Rinpoche, a Tibetan teacher of the twentieth century raised 4 "bug" makes it difficult to see the Buddha Nature, which he called "mind nature":

"Self-identity too close to the point that it is difficult to realize,

It's too deep to comprehend it difficult to detect,

It is always present is too easy to make money do not believe it,

It is so immense so we do not use floating. "

These analyzes of Soyal Rinpoche makes us remember the Sixth Patriarch Hui Neng (638-713). When the open market was five, he joyfully exclaimed words the essence of mind: "It was unexpected nature pure equity,

Self-doubt where birth and death nature of capital,

Self-doubt where the full capital nature,

Self-doubt where nature which does not oscillate,

Self-doubt where you want legal nature or birth. "

Said above, sure you still see vague; so I add the teacher leads Bankei (1622-1693). In his book Mind unborn, he had only one more clearly so that we can recognize in himself the Buddha Mind: "The Buddha mind that you have from birth and the unborn really is a public lighting photo. Evidence of this is while all of you listening out there that I said that caw, Chip Sparrow sound, sound of wind rustling ... although not intentional discrimination, but the sound that you will still recognize and distinguish each sound, this call is heard for the unborn Mind ... The real life that is the source of all things, is the starting point of everything. There is no problem because what does not kill the artifacts are not destroyed, so to say real life is eternal then of course ... What are the Buddhas past evidence is any living mind and what future Buddha is mind without birth certificates as well. Today we are in the dark age, but only to a person residing in the unborn, the Dharma Center also revived then ... Let's recognize explicitly that the lighting was not born and is the true magic that Buddha is mind. An accommodation right in his mind between now and then ever after, you are a Tathagata level living ... "Soyal Rinpoche distinguish two prominent aspects of the Mind:

-Mind "normal" (Sem) capable of distinguishing, conscious duality (good-bad, love-hate, take-up v ... v). This mind should cling to the self born of a desire, anger thus creating karma, brought to life and death-rebirth and suffering.

-Mind "by nature" (Rigpa) is the absolute, not involve change and death (usually longer and does not kill) "Mind the course" not only in our minds only, in fact it is the nature of all things, all phenomena in the universe. Soyal Rinpoche also said that the natural mind is called "God" with Christ and Judaism, "Great Falls" with Hindus and "Buddha Nature" with Buddhists. So how can we back to the Buddha Nature?

Buddha has shown us so many ways (method) to customize each individual's inborn that application. Persons with inborn high, teachers practice the DC is also the basis of low, medium or practice the Salon teachers. The issue is important to practice Buddhism, not only theoretical because we can not distinguish Tri to "see" Nature is but to "see-know" by Wisdom (also known as Tri Prajna ). Fundamental ways in primitive Buddhism is based on Virtue, Wisdom.

-Keep the world is to not cause more bad karma, so that life is not disturbed, so we'll calm, easy to cultivate.

-The mind is not being attached by the scene outside and not be disappointed by the inside of distracting thoughts. Want to have mindfulness right concentration, that want to practice mindfulness, the four foundations of mindfulness.

-Wisdom is the penetrating truth of all things in us humans as well as in space, like a mirror in the morning faithfully reflect all "as it is" (as it is) no more, no less. So wisdom is awareness.

We can take for example a glass filled with water from a muddy potholes after rain. If a piece of paper to write an inscription on one side of the glass, we could not see anything through the muddy water from opposite the glass. We should not shake the cup or in a glass stirring rod taken, such as the "do not hold the world"; as the more we can not see anything through the muddy water cool. On the contrary, we should stay where it is a glass of water for several hours, the sand will settle to the bottom glass symbolizes the "Policy". Finally, when water in the cup has become transparent, we will see the text clearly palpably through the glass, this wallet for "Wisdom." This is the basic principles of meditation and the way has helped Sakyamuni's enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, clearly comprehend all of the heavens perhaps legendary, freed forever from birth and death-rebirth. Buddha His other provinces in that our 24/24 and we are still asleep, "opened my eyes that dream."

4 / TA who decide our own destiny .

Life is like a mirror because when you raise your fist up, fist raised in the mirror and back, and if I laugh in the mirror and smile back. Law of karma in Buddhism is so clear, but we must understand this law in three times: past, present, future, because people must be planted on the coast, the last bear fruit. We do not see what was happening but got immediate conclusion is not true causal laws, that "God has no eyes." Teilhard de Chardin, the famous French theologian, said that why we all recognize that the laws of physics in the universe as we do not believe in the laws of morality, ethics in the spiritual world. In Buddhism it best: "To know life before that person how they see their lifetime . Want to know how the next life he shall also see how they live out in this life. " So we are owners of their destiny, happiness or unhappiness is something we decided, not by anybody else, a different punishment.

Religion Buddhism is a hard to hear. Not everyone is blessed with enough grace, enough to accept radical. How can an ordinary person could accept the idea: I am the author, life is just a dream? The ancients said: "Drugs are bitter disability leave, so the offending words." How good is good enough but not to accept the kindness that kindness to rise above, to Hue tu tu, not only blessed. The vast majority of religious Buddhist blessing now, only few people from Hue. Tu blessing is not an act of cruelty, often do good for the purpose of enjoying the natural consequence. There is merit, how much they enjoyed good results but it is still within samsara as scholar Nguyen Duy should have said: Chains of gold also remains whether x i ch to human bondage like golden cage is also the prison of birds. The problem is broken gold chain or cage to escape prison. Thus the Buddha advised us from Hue to escape from prison "Three Realms". Only so can we master the new greed, hatred and delusion in themselves, master mortal-and if we have Reincarnation rebirth, it is by prayer, not by industry. Buddha said something real fashioned: "Victory sa thousand enemies outside the field not by themselves win. Win yourself is the most resounding. "

5 / Middle Way "Happiness NOT FIRST"

This is the most important lesson, but the highest and most confusing.

Most of us come to the crossroads, but there are a few re-attach to selflessness. Buddha said they thought things should be conditioned where nothing is real at all, death is all that is foolish not to enjoy yourself in every way, including the killing of others. Just like a dream life, no soul, no retribution, but to fear nothing. But they must understand that every person has consciousness as described in section (III-3). If there's "fake" the results also have "fake" and the dream they are still paying the retribution, they still have a taste of romantic suffering in the scene, not run away to be both.

When the theory of selflessness, the Buddha did not want to not because we accept as such, is worse than serving in there, but he just wants us to see the true nature of the Self to not be attached. When you see the nature of things is dependent origination, we find it has no true identity, is there or not. Therefore, we do not attach to a crossroads and did not accept the selflessness, the disapproval is called the Middle Path, also known as "First means no." Middle Way means "no there is not no".

Middle Way does not mean that the synthesis between the Yes and No, which is the Vietnamese super concept from the world. Middle Way does not mean the intermediary between the Yes - no, often-paragraph, on uninterruptedly, Passion-Fun which means beyond the extreme that, outside the ring relative to the difference may manifest Vacuum Noble friends, definitely not heard the thoughts and words. Reality escape four concepts: Yes, No, usually, paragraph. This is in economic duality Vimalakirti. Meaning in the Middle Vietnamese is super attitude detachment, invisible universe, ie not being dependent on a prejudice, not framed in a category that thought. Middle Path is done without being attached to the Yes and No: Need user to strive Falls, to compete for more advanced science, the life is more prosperous but should not get caught in the crossroads it indicates thought to myself that should selflessness application to remove the boundaries between ourselves and the people, to more friends and fewer enemies, to bring happiness to people around the world.

Buddhists have a saying "Depending on conditions that are invariant" means the case that we tackle, but stick to liberation and salvation mortal beings. Therefore, when a man does something like that but actually transgress the purpose of level, to help others. Te Cong Hoa Thuong was born to break the general observance of human beings. However, there are those who rely on to do things about it and said that he illegally accepted break. Buddhism is very susceptible to evil fallacies advantage for their bad behavior. Therefore, we must be wary not to fooled.

VI. KET Luan

In Buddhism, the so-called "own" only

* Links to the five aggregates, and not the other core.

* So that the convergence of conditions and also by the dispersion of conditions that kill.

* And did not have an immortal soul that after the four elements of this body panels collapse but of rebirth consciousness and professional help.

It is the sense (rather than a physical entity) of this body and mind through all the actions of body, speech and mind.

The Buddha pointed out to break the selflessness of our ego. Anatta doctrine breaking down the distinction between our people and to bring equality and harmony among people together, to see happiness of their happiness, ranging from immeasurable mind: loving kindness, compassion, sympathy, and equanimity to all beings.

No-Soul is a truth, but do not hold it in my sleep ethical metaphysics.

Should see a correlation between Radio and Friendship, between No and Say, between self and phenomena, between the Absolute and Relative, between mind and France, between Buddhism and Human excess surplus. When the realization of selflessness then we still have to live and bring the body temporarily, but we assume no enemies at all. Well, it is convenient or retrograde means to practice, "borrowed author from the foot", to achieve True Happiness.

And the most skillful means to break the ego, which is oriented to serve beings, is to develop Bodhicitta. Thus the new Ta increasingly smaller, the new one perfecting himself in the words of Venerable Narada taught: "Serving to become completely and totally to serve."
