The
Battle
Always have problems, but Gotama
Magi never discouraged. With indomitable spirit, nomad in the neighborhood Maghada
(Magadha) to find the state of peace and ultimate truth. One day, the Magi to Uruvela,
Senani town of origin. Here he found a place among the lush forest, next to a
spectacular river, bending his grace in the heart of two sandy beaches, not far
from a prosperous village, every day can go begging for alms real. He thought as follows:
"The landscape indeed tangible, beautiful forest cluster, exciting river with white sand beaches and not far from the village. I can easily go there for alms. For pre-moral resolve to noble aims, then this is indeed where appropriate ". [1]
Location elaborately adapted to meditation. Peaceful atmosphere, vegetation lush, green landscape. He stayed for a certain achievement aspirations.
When news of Prince Siddhattha (Siddhartha Ta) from palaces to give away live the religious life, Kondanna (Kondanna) is Brahman ascetics Young predicted that he would later attained Buddha, along with four children of seven other ascetics Bhaddiya name, Vappa, Mahanama and preach also find him to learn.
he was seven hours of Indians are set others loyal to the rites, forms of asceticism and the forms of sacrifice. According to the belief that, if not force yourself into strict ascetic lifestyle can not be freed. Growing up in this belief, Magi Gotama (Gautama) and five brothers Kondanna (Kondanna) began fighting extraordinary six-year school, his own self in extremely austere life until one day robust body of Magi Gotama (Gautama) is only a skeleton leather. Body as much pain, as he leaves the target.
Many texts were recorded words of the Buddha, a full description of persistent efforts, the various methods which he applied, and the success His last, in the universal struggle of suffering hardships.
Business Maha Saccaka Sutta [2] describes the behavior of the Bodhisattva diligently as follows:
"At that arise following ideas to me:
"Or I clamped my teeth together, pressing the tongue against the cap outlook, and then with the mind (good) to suppress, dominate, and destroy the idea (of evil)?
"Then I clamped my teeth together, pressing the tongue against the cap expectations , and suppression efforts, manage, and destroy the idea (of evil) in mind (good). When I fight like that in the armpit sweat flowing from the vent.
"As people embrace the powerful role of a key or two and then pressed down, forced exertion and overcome, not reared up, so is I fought and overcome (evil thoughts).
"The real results of my effort and indomitable perseverance. My mind it is not solid and unshakeable. But my body worn out and not try to peacefully after a suffering - physical must yield to the diligent. Although painful sensations arise to me, it does not hurt me at heart.
"Then I thought as follows: Or we try to cultivate meditation hold your breath!
"Then I controlled breathtaking breathtaking-and-wealth, from the mouth and nose. When I control-very slightly-to breathe, breathe-out, at the mouth and nose, then a jet escape from the ear canal, creating a huge sound unusual. Breath escaping from two tubes retract his blacksmith asked how it was my breath, blast from ear to escape is to create a sound like that.
"Anyway, my behavior is consistent effort maintenance and indomitable. My mind is still solid and not perturbed. But my body worn out and not try to peacefully after a suffering - physical must yield to the diligent. Although painful sensations arise to me, it does not hurt me at heart.
"Then arises the following ideas to me: Shall we try to cultivate legal hold your breath!
"Then I control -very breathtaking, exhale from the mouth, nose and ears. At stop breathing through the mouth, nose and ears is slightly (oppressed) pounding in my head. As someone very powerful drill into my skull drilled a sharp tongue, when I stopped breathing, slightly beating my head hurting so well. Although painful sensations arise in the body so my mind it does not affect me at all.
"Then I thought to myself: Or we try to practice meditation he held his breath again!
"Then I control -very breathtaking, breathe-out from the mouth, nose and ears. And when I breathe, I hear the pain flare up. Status terrible pain at the time as an athlete has used a rope to squeeze my head. However, the behavior of my effort is a persistent level. These feelings do not cause pain, damage to my heart.
"Then I thought to myself: Or we try to meditate on the law once again holding its breath!
"Then I stopped breathing through the mouth, nose and ears. When I breath control like that is a strong whiff poke through my stomach. Butchers, improved technology or new apprentice, using sharp knife an incision on the abdomen, causing pain how the strong wind made me poke through the abdominal pain, he seems. But I'm still a sustained effort level. The pain did not affect my mind.
"Again I thought to myself: Or we try to meditate more on legal hold your breath!
"Then I steam-breath-control, the breathing-in the mouth, nose and ear. And hold my breath when I feel like such a terrible flame to flushes up and washed over me. As a person holding a key strength and put on red tube the burning charcoal fire until completely destroyed, burned me at apnea also seems like it hot. But I persevered diligently. The pain does not cause damage to my heart.
"At that time the gods so that I said to each other Magi Gotama (Gautama) has died! Several others noted Magi Gotama would not die, but dying! Meanwhile you also said Magi Gotama is not dead nor necessarily dying. He was an Arahat. This is the life of an Arhat. "
Change method: Great
Food
"Then I thought: Or try our
executive hunger! "Then there are gods to me and said," O Him, for His hunger should not law enforcement. If he absolutely does not use real things anymore, we'll pour on his body the nutrients it's heavenly to seep into the pores and feed him. "
"And I thought: If we hunger strike that law enforcement gods poured nutrients to feed the celestial body is a result of this is false, I deny that: "It is not necessary."
"At the time I thought as follows: Or we try to use little less food, each time just a little, a little water or vegetable green beans or red beans or white beans.
"When I was little only do such things, in solid or liquid, the body I became extremely thin. Because of lack of food, large and small parts of my body without any other thin tube of grass or trees posted three workshops. My desk is located only in the basement of the camel. Backbone as well as a rosary I stand up and bent into. My ribs like a home side collapsed. In my eyes no other images of the stars that we can see under a deep well. Left bitter melon was cut out and bring fresh sun, wind and sun melon skin atrophy, grimacing and how it faded my scalp at the time, because of lack of nutrients, also nauseated and wilting like that . When you want to touch my belly is touching the skin to the spine. And when I want to touch the spine touching the skin to the abdomen. Because of lack of food, my abdominal skin and squeeze the spine, take time to urinate standing up, I fall down feverishly. I flapped on his arms and legs to make himself alive again. Alas, like dams, sifting hairs on my body hit the ground because the original died. Seeing me like this, someone said: 'Black Magi Gotama'. Some say: 'Magi Gotama (Gautama) which is not black and blue'. There are also people who say, 'Gotama Magi not blue nor black but dark brown'. Color bright and clear my badly to like it because of lack of food.
"Then the following thoughts arise to me: Oil and the hermit or ascetic in the past have suffered the pain sensation biting, pain, or severe laments how, then this level is also the same, not more. Oil and the hermit or ascetic in the future will bear the stinging sensation, pain, or aches intense, so too is this level is the same, no more. But how many have experienced austere, difficult and painful that we do not achieve more good, worthy of the noble and enlightened wisdom far exceed the lofty status of men. Or is there no other way to affordable Enlightenment? "
Mara Evil
Temptation
Mortification under full form,
Magi Gotama did not result in a harvest field, just exhausted. Although, thanks to our
early years living in affluent prosperous full should have ample strength and
body rinse out, but he still could not tolerate that anymore. His ancient body beautiful
has become debilitating thin, bright yellow color became pale green.
Blood units,
almost withdrawn, atrophy, eyes indented and fading. He is just a skeleton with life.
But death is
near. Between the danger that state, while the will of his firm at the highest level (Padhana), while he still sat by the river Neranjara (Ni-inter-meditation) consistent efforts and meditation to maintain success for the state of the European absolute Namuci [3] approached and said the following words [4]:
"Upon This Magi, the thin, emaciated body, now dead to.
"A thousand parts (in the body) had died away, leaving only one alive. Live, O Magi! Life is over. Having created life be blessed.
"Be celibate sacrifices and constant fire, people will be more blessed. Pressed his ascetic life like this to do? The road persistent effort indeed austere, difficult, and not easy to achieve. "
Mara stood before Him, saying such words. In response, the Bodhisattva says:
"Hey man diabolic evil, evil relatives and lazy! You came here because you own interests.
"For thee, blessed with a value of what, how much oil is useless fortune. But is your duty to say so.
"With a firm belief (saddha), self-interest to closely control (tapo) [5], energy (Viriya) and wisdom (panna), we practice as so. I was determined so, why do you still have questions about life?
"The wind blows forever, one day can also make shallow stream, the blood of the religious mortification (abstain from eating and drinking) do from dying?
"Blood runs dry, the bile, meat and wear and tear. Meat is more wear and tear as pure mind. More calm mind, as an office, grew brighter, the more solid concentration.
"At that time our body is extremely painful. More physical pain, the more souls away from the craving. Until we know how it is pure state of a being!
"desire (Kama) is one of the legions of people. The second army is dissatisfied with a life of holiness (Arati). Three are hungry and thirsty (Khuppipasa) [6]. Fourth Craving (Tanha). In a more deep in the skin under (Thina-Middha, sluggish, lazy and lethargic). Sixth Fear (Bhiru). Seventh Doubt (Vicikiccha) [7]. Eight is vilified and Intolerance (Makkha-Thambha). Nine is profitable (Labha), praise (Siloka), honor (Sakkara) and Thinh List Real Chief (Yasa), and the army is The Guest of ten too high and your value Slights Another '(Attukkamsanaparavambhana ).
"Namuci, that army of people, that customers always stay within the class of demonic evil. The weak and cowardly did not win, but who dominated the army he was to find happiness.
"I have columns on the banner of grass Munja beam [8]. Life in this world is clearly miserable. I would rather die in battle than live failures! [9]
"strictly control the line of thought, and fortified with strong mindfulness, we will take the uncertainty from one place to another, some co-training discipleship.
"diligence, decision, and practice of our teaching - not interested in people - these persons will come to your place without suffering. "
With these words he determined, Gotama the Magi won Mara evil mind, and to achieve certain for the goals, Director penalty.
Path "middle
way"
After six years of experience
itself, Gotama was aware Magi sure way of asceticism can not benefit, although
the philosophers and priests of that time insisted that it is living up to
necessary to achieve the goal. Seeing that just to calm ascetic intellectual and mental
fatigue, he immediately abandoned definitively benefit from it, as well as
before gave up nursing lifestyle benefits, only delay the progress of science,
and select the the "middle way" which later would become one of the
characteristics of His Catechism. Relive childhood, on the other a plowing ceremony, while his father and people are attentive celebration of the happy, then how he had sat under the cool shade of a tree brooch, meditation, and attained samadhi meditation Profile.
That the true path to enlightenment.
He noted that with the plate itself can not be worn out entirely clear, a health adaptation are essential to the spiritual progress, and decided not hungry anymore, but the raw material used.
Five monks have long trusted by the time most reach How much hope, now that he suddenly changed practice of doing so, taking time only, leaving Isipatana (Park Loc Author) and said:
"Magi returned Gautama favorite luxury, has stop trying, and life has returned to good care. "
While such an important decision, the external support it is extremely urgent. So, right then, the fellow practitioners who fled. But he does not lose heart. Alone, in loneliness, midst the forests, the great men often realize higher truths deeply profound and solve complex problems and difficulties.
Dawn Of
Truth
After a couple of things real
rough, Magi Gotama (Gautama) rehabilitation and easily enter the Meditation
(Jhana), Zen story that he had achieved in early life [10]. Since, then gradually and then he
entered the Second Meditation Meditation Three and Four. When entering meditation,
consciousness would remain completely solid to a point, subsided in the morning
as polished mirror surface cleaning, and everything that can reflect an
extremely honest. Then thought becomes calm, pure, clean, no pollution,
malleable, is awake, strong and unshakable, his mind towards insight related to
the status "In Me The Past life "(pubbe-nivasanussati Nana, Tuc Network City,
wisdom remembering past lives). He recalled many past lifetimes like this: First one lifetime, two lifetimes, lifetimes and three, then four, five, ten, twenty, fifty, then one hundred, one thousand, one hundred thousand, and the dispersal of many cycles of the world, and the development of multiple cycles of the world, then both the dispersion and the development of multiple cycles of the world. Here what his name, was born into the family, what class, what diet, joy and suffering How, how, and death. From scene to go, he does rebirth, what is the name, born in any family, any class, what diet, joy and suffering and death any way. Then go from there, this rebirth.
As such recall how he was reborn and more details about a past life.
This, really, is that his Wisdom First realized at farm a night Enlightenment.
has destroyed ignorance classes related to the past, his purity of radial property "Perceptions Removal and Birth phenomenon of being" (Cutupapata Nana, Divine Eye Minh).
With property labels pure and sublime, He found that death from this life being reborn into another life.
He who witnessed this scene to the coward, who pretty bad, happy people who suffer, all experienced death and birth phenomenon, depending on the behavior of each artifact.
He knew that this person, because of the actions, words and thoughts of evil, cursed Sublime wise, trust not right and that they live wrong person, after physical dispersion and die, was born in the state of unhappiness.
He knew that the other person, by action, words and good thoughts, respect wise Sublime, the true faith and way of life of people with the right view, after the dissolution of the body generally, was reborn in the heavenly peace and happiness.
So, with the Divine Eye Minh, his status entry size the dispersion and structure of a human being again.
This, really, is that his Wisdom Second realization of centering, Enlightenment night.
It dispels ignorance classes related to the future, he lays a bar Net on "Wisdom Understanding the legal Cessation damnation" (Asavakkhaya Nana, Tan Minh Lau) [11]. True to reality, his perception: "It troubles ',' This is a Terminate the sorrow." "This is the path I ended troubles'.
same way, true to reality, he said: "This is Pollution." "This is the End Pollution". "This is the way to Stop Pollution."
perception that, his mind is released from illegal sexual (pollution of desire), organic contraband (attachment defilement of life) and ignorance pirated (pollution of ignorance).
Freed, he said, "I have been freed" [12] and his perception: "Rebirth ended, holy life has been fulfilled, are done work to be done, no longer return to that. "[13]
This is Wisdom Tuesday that he realized in the third watch, night Enlightenment.
screen has been cleared of ignorance and wisdom arises. Dark tan and light has come.
