Renunciation and Enlightenment
But All-at-most are not found in the position that the solution to your questions, so I determined to find escape routes and five monks (five brothers Kondanna , sa. Kondanna ) companion. After years of ascetic was near death, All-at-most realize it is not allowed to practice leading to enlightenment, start eating normally, the other five billion-stage left disappointed. The Buddhist religious hardship were repeated after enlightenment as follows [1] :
- Aggivessana this, then I think the following order: "Let us minimize eating, eat less drop by drop, like green bean soup, black bean soup or split pea soup or bean soup small." And this Aggivessana, while we minimize any food, food drop by drop, like green bean soup, black bean soup or soup nuts or pea soup, relatives of mine became very thin. Because I eat too little, arms and legs as I become the burning grass or withered vines, because I eat too little, round tables of nails I become like the camel, because I eat too little, spine We display the ball like a chain, because I eat too little, all emaciated ribs I like the rafters of the floor a decay column, because I eat too little, so the pupil of glitter I placed deep down in eye holes, like light sparkling water located deep in a deep water well, because I eat too little, the scalp becomes dry wizened white pumpkin and bitter as were cut before they are ripe, with winds make hot arid disheveled. Aggivessana this, if I thought: "Let us thrust their bellies," the main spine I grabbed. If I thought: "Let us touch the spine," then the abdominal skin I took. Because I eat too little, this should Aggivessana, abdominal skin of mine to hold the spine. Aggivessana this, if I thought, "I toilet, urinate or go" then I collapsed, face down on the ground, because I eat too little. Aggivessana this, if I wanted to ease my body, my hand massaging hands, then this Aggivessana, while I massage the limbs, loss of hair from the body decay I, because I eat too little. Again, this Aggivessana, so people see it this way: "Sa-black subjects with Gotama." Some people say: "Sa-subjects Gotama, black skin, Sa-subjects with gray leather Gotama." Some people say: "Sa-black skin is not subject Gotama, the skin is not gray." Some people say: "Sa-black skin is not subject Gotama, gray skin, Sa-subject Gotama dark yellow skin." Until such level, this Aggivessana, Ta da capital of pure, clear decay because we eat too little. "
- Aggivessana this, then I think as follows: "I know, while I father, the strain Sakka (favorite-ca) is plowed and I was sitting under the shade tree match-line-problem (pi. jambu ), I sex li, li immoral legal residence certificate and the first meditation, a state of blissful sex life by li, has a range, with four. " When dwell so, I thought, "this path to enlightenment can be affordable?" And this Aggivessana, followed by the notion that, this consciousness has arisen in me: "This is the path to enlightenment." Aggivessana this, then I thought: "I have reasonable fear of pleasure, a pleasure sexual li, li immoral law?" Aggivessana this, then I thought, "I do not get lost this receptor, a sexual pleasure li, li immoral law."
- "... After completing the energy (after futile ascetic), we focus on freedom from craving thoughts, negative and achieved preliminary meditation, then binary meditation, meditation and charity tam (charity), but the feeling of bliss is not to leave traces in our minds.
- When our mind is calm, purify, no defilements of desire, sensitivity, uncertainty, real estate, I direct it to the memories and awareness of past lives. I remember many past lives, one, two, three, four, five, ..., hundreds of thousands of past lives, remember the cycle of the world. 'Where we lived there, my name was like that, our family is like, our career, our social class ... I died like this ... '. Understanding (sa. Vidya , pi. vijja ) was first achieved in the first watch [3] ...
- Then we pay attention to the birth and passing away of beings. With the eyes of the gods, pure, super-human world limits Vietnamese, we see the formation and consumption beings imperishable beings ... reborn as karma. I realize that 'we born evil karma through three loose body and mind are immersed after death, reborn in doa origin, hell. The beings that create good karma through body and mind to be reborn in the good direction, up realms after death is natural '... This second understanding was reached in farming two [4] .
- Then we focus on awareness of the destruction of pirated or (漏, sa. asrava , pi. asava ) and recognized as true: 'This is suffering, this is the cause of suffering, this suffering is killing methods , this is the way to destroy suffering ', and when we realize this, our mind out of desire, desire exists, ignorance. Understand our own truth 'Rebirth was the life of our practice is complete, we have completed what to do. Life (suffering) have overcome this' ... This third understanding was reached in the third watch [5] ... ".
Plat and cessation
Life Buddha also experienced bad people to harm. Among them, there Cartesian her multi-reaching is his cousin, to dominance Sangha, should be assembled to try to kill the Buddha several times but failed. However Cartesian her-at-most successful division in caffeine Sangha amnesty-li. Buddha walked a middle path, and depending upon living beings, in contrast to achieve multi-her-life advocates an extreme asceticism.
Buddha letter facilitate the monks last chance to meet him or ask questions if there are problems or also not clear what point can lead to different insights about later, but the position was silent, no questions or questions.
In Sala coastal forests south of the city, night is very dark and stillness, the Buddha lying on the organic side, head towards the north, facing the west and gradually enter Nirvana through meditation level, a state of complete liberation of suffering life. According to legend, the Buddha Pali passing full moon day in April, said that the Sanskrit text of full moon in November. During the cremation, the body of the Buddha has many strange phenomenon occurs. relics of Buddha are divided into 8 sections and is worshiped in different towers.
Even though the life of Buddha covered with many myths, but the Archaeologists and anthropologists - capital or skepticism and prejudice - also agreed to recognize the Buddha was a historical figure who has enlightened and Buddhism .
