ESCAPE FROM THE WORDLY LIFE.

In Buddhist teaching: "Shaving beard, hair, robe up, renunciation, from their homes, no family life." This is the second stage of the practice of Buddhism. The layman wants to move to this stage is to understand clearly ordained life, and wonders whether he could succeed or not.

Through teaching in this passage: "Shaving beard hair, covering robe." This is the advice to let go to cut the external grace, beauty makeup, to make her ugly, dress, grooming is not just bad use of cloth. External images to break and remove the beauty of the earth, making people much less attention to the new ease of cultivation. In the story "Cat Wretched Stone" has told the story of a woman so beautiful she would improve with a teacher for her practice. Teacher said: "She is not religious." She surprised the teacher asked: "Why did not practice? Please teach the teacher". The Zen master replied: "Because she was so beautiful!"

After hearing her return home seeking to destroy her beauty. After the wound had healed on the surface, leaving a scar on the face makes her more like the devil. Then return to her teacher. Just seen the face, the teacher recognized her and accept her in prison.

The design, experience tells us: "The rejection of wealth, possessions, homes, business' attention Buddha advised us to let go of the physical world, something no longer than three y a bowl, not to mind anxiety, regret, fear Airmail, fear of loss, etc. ..

Also texts that last sentence, says: "Life without family," meaning cessation emotional parents, brothers, sisters, wives, friends, relatives of people, etc. .. .

When you understand this passage each, we find the Buddha taught very clearly. Lay people determined to follow the path of Buddhism is liberation began to move through life new life direction. But this passage is short, but we see the Buddha only daycua great change people's lives:

1 /. Practitioner but also makeup, beauty, do not look as Buddhist monk arrived, the place to be.

2 /. The age that does not get rid of property, material wealth, gold, silver, precious, how could of Buddhist practice is where to choose.

3 /. The age without emotional detachment, not sever our attachment to the body, how could a Buddhist monk arrived, the place to be.

The difficulty of the first practitioners of Buddhism in these three cases, if finish one, but two, then a monk in vain, if the end of two, also a monk nor the results. Only when the full stop is about three cases of export from the new release results. If that does not stop these three cases, you have to practice is just a bald lay only.

Considering these three cases, one must first remove makeup, posing, beauty, dress fabric collection so bad. Then set alms, let go of wealth assets, to release to really clean. Do not expect to spend, save the temple, for circumcision is beautiful, spiritual level. This is the argument of the religious world through the alley, and being deceived mind. Tu to save his escape damnation. I was not that worried at saving people, it is ignorance, foolishness. It is also the heart benefits.

We must renounce all his possessions as Aggregate Long Bang, providing asset wealth, treasure emptied into the river. When letting go is all the wealth, property, jewels, gold and silver, we address how to love no longer bound, miss those? This is a very difficult period in Buddhism. Sounds easy, but make it extremely difficult. Want to escape from worldly life where everyone is doing it. Must be brave, full of courage, determination, courage and last escaped it.

A lay person like sitting here, listening to teachers lecture, try to ask you to leave your family is religious or not consecutive days? You want a monk, but his wife and children can agree or not? If you are the ends, leave, then you have done contrary to his teachings: "Do not make your pain, suffering people."

You will ask him: "Why Buddha monk left the family, remember I love my wife". You forget that when the Buddha, the Buddhist monk not. Because Buddhism does not exist, so no one teaches this (moral cause and effect). And now we have Buddhism, should be "not to suffer his ethics, suffering people." So her new husband dies Dhamar have to wait a monk.

Two words surely duty bound than iron chains. The duty of man, for parents, for his wife and children, if we get rid of it? That little one can do, what should be easy. A person to do this like a shoal, are suffering in the grid, only one escape from the nets, it is a little rare. We are family people with nets, netting material and net name, net profit over the same enclosure, unable to break out of it. He Minh Tong is a layman whose wife, young children, their mothers are sick. But standing in front of the living dead, the disease cycle of suffering and rebirth of human life, he did not wait any longer, stronger commitment beyond the network, to thuci the path of liberation, rescue and save his people, including his family, parents and wives and children.

Not everyone can do is lay Minh Tong. Most of you are here, listening to teachers lecture, to listen to nothing but understanding, not enough to overcome the network of family, scrape off the hair of family, life changes completely cut off the roots dreams wire cheeks, family love to do the noble life of Buddhism. "Without his suffering, suffering people," and go further on the path of Buddhism. This is accomplished by meditation, purification of the body only, as all life dies, wipe the law of karma, reincarnation. These practices, the layman, living in the family, can not do. Path of Buddhism is not as simple as people think, but to take steps. Initially to have intelligent level supervisor to practice properly and lawfully.

Our teachers and children think about the issue in our body are free activities such as heartbeat, breathing lung, stomach contractions food stuffing, small intestine, colon and skin are secreted, brain, nervous active, and out of breath constantly. So that one set of controls are made for the downtime, the monks and the children themselves think this is not the easy thing to do, easy to cultivate.

If your mind is also responsible for odor implications to the world, also injured, but hate, and anger, and desire for this object, character, lose interest in life talk, the stories, debates over losing, not to give up renunciation, make sure your teacher and you can not do these great things.

The teachings of Buddha bar shows us the path is clear. Start legal to eliminate evil, lia heart desires, taking the core causal practice good behavior, causing cessation of heart and furniture away from the fetters, the five hindrances. Practice turn loose, giving up, offerings, and also to cultivate the virtue patience, depending upon, consent to every object, every situation. If the initial practice is the case, your teacher and you will be cups education, legal separation easily evil. Which was separated from education, legal separation is evil, then you live in the heart of the family is still happy, happy, nobody is doing all the heart, always at your mind always relaxed, peaceful .

When performing the sexual phase separation, legal separation evil, you will get a free spirit, peace, and a happy life, happy. If you are satisfied, then the path where your new issue to a third way. You want to go the voyage, the robed Buddhist layman, you sure are hard to implement.

Transition from shirt to shirt lay people of the religious, you must let go of all the assets of his wealth as Bang Long Aggregates. When you let go of all assets, wealth, we love to solve how to not be restricted, Trade Me. This is a very difficult period. If parents, brothers, sisters, wives and children are ok Buddhism is easy to come by end clothing against the innumerable difficulties. It forms part, agree or disagree, what about our feelings for these people, can we get rid of easily? To find the path of liberation without detachment boldly, not enough energy separation from loved ones, thousands of lives are also examples from nowhere ....

Having been away from the property, there is definitely love the new jacket enter the right one, otherwise only the tu form, never tasted the taste of liberation. From life to life the steps, all are different. So people want religious freedom, but not prepared will be a severe shock. From then on life "life like birth, such that the director", the practice also went nowhere, taking a human life costs, not for his benefit, for people.

Those who pass this road, pass universal subjects such as fish. Chuang Tzu old standing with a friend who fish fishing. There is a fish from the nets are pulled up sharply to escape, Page E clapping praise: "Hay! A fish so smart!"

The friend asked, "Why did you know it smart?"

A. All the other fish the same fate net sa, sa net without seeing her, do not see the danger, disaster, do not see the suffering lost their lives, not seen on the knife, the fire burns hot water, not seen as just killed curtain ring. A short squint, then alas, there is more to life. Both a shoal, but only one beyond, is not so smart?

Who is wise, to see this body is impermanent, as suffering, is not self, the body is impure, defiled, stinking disease, suffering, that the relatives of the cause and effect, are debt together. He understood that there is nothing as permanent, permanently, the law in this world is not his anymore, which is due to conditions and are suffering, is binding.

The Buddhist practice without seeing three cases decided the fate of their religious practice to where it is though good for nothing, just a religious form only. END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY BACH LIEN HOA.( TAM THANH ).MHDT.12/5/2012.NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.(3 TIMES ).
