Thich Tam Chau.
A. Introduction
Reincarnation is a very lively and very concerned for the people. Dead going on? Why, then re-birth? Negative realms? etc. .. That is the question hovering in the minds of the majority of mankind. The background and religious beliefs of the world have different concepts of reincarnation. As for Buddhism, reincarnation is not a specific doctrine, nor is it a basic philosophical problem, but it is a fact obvious to the human cycle of birth and death depressed suffering pain. Therefore, in the scriptures of both organs and North floors threads or mention the issue of reincarnation, as a smooth phenomenon of life after another. Especially in Bon Born (State Ministry of Economic) recorded the stories of the Buddha's body, as an eloquent testimonials about the life cycle of the great Bodhisattva. B. Contents I. Definition: Rebirth, Sanskrit samsara, that is the reincarnation, the transition, the continuous unfolding of life; and reincarnating continuous, usually indicated by the wheel (cakka) and is called wheel of reincarnation (samsaracakka): We can imagine the wheel of reincarnation as a "birth circle" of life of all human beings. On that circle, no beginning and no end, and the wheel was kept back deep within the cycle of birth and death until human suffering practice and attain the ultimate liberation. The Buddha said: "counting long for those who long for with guys tired Rebirth long socks for fools do not know the truth of " II. Content Reincarnation: After mastering the direct roots of Enlightenment, one of the manifesto (triumphal ca) Buddha was first sung line between content release cycle - and damnation, has been recorded in the organ trade is as follows: In the heart of endless life and death I go forever not stop other from fetus to fetus chasing the owner of the house (in the cycle) owner! I have captured you then You shall not take the truss column has broken all roof, beam collapsed Tam leave all artifacts All finished eradication (liberation from samsara). (Dhammapada 153-154) 1. Reincarnation - rebirth: Through prayer, we see the Buddha determine the truth of reincarnation in a concrete through renewable photos (from fetus to fetus). Rebirth (Reincarnation) is a return to a new life or higher, or lower than, or the same in the six paths (heaven, asura, hell, hungry quy3, animals) after the end of a life cycle (life cycles), or trigger called life-all - death. Normally, when it comes to the cycle of rebirth, and in Buddhism generally refers to two basic concepts about life and death, it is : a. Cycle of birth and death of every moment b. Cycle of birth and death of a life -cycle of birth and death of each moment, because it happened so quickly as the birth and loss of a lane lightning (lightning) Buddhist term called "concept conception - birth and death "(mortal su5 held in each concept), so the only issue to be discussed on a higher level, as in meditation, or the realm of the mind, etc. - On cycle public life and death of a life, due to the limitations of a life cycle, that is, can be recorded through four stages: birth, old age, sickness, death and / or birth (b.), there exists (head ), transformation (allergic) and passing away (killing) of a living being, so this cycle becomes the central theme of reincarnation research-regeneration. Buddhist point of view, all the creatures they must be governed by the law of impermanence. For humans, impermanence is the expression of birth, aging, sickness and death of each life, and every life like that are limited by two d9au birth and death. However, the birth and death is only the beginning and completion of a cycle, Thus, when the body is destroyed, what will continue to regenerate - beginning a new life? This is key to the understanding of reincarnation. Trading Central (Majjhima Nikaya - 135), the Buddha says: "Man is the owner of the business, as heirs, relatives of the industry; career is pregnant human organs which it was born. " From teaching, we see that now (karma) always present along with the presence of humans. And death, the physical body is melting tanks, and now continues propelled under its line damnation (or good karma or bad karma). But now is not the immortal soul to connect life, because it is itself self. However, now is the base, the center point, to which the cycle of rotation. So, what now? Karma is volitional action, or action arising out of mind; and through the actions of body, speech and mind that now formed. Say now is all about good and evil in the relation of cause and effect;, and in that relationship, main engines to tectonic now is the greed, hatred and delusion (karma) and vice versa is not greed, not hatred, not ignorance (karma). From here, we see clearly that his own psychology as a basis for creating one's career. People who decide which of his career - so now is his work. And also the only man who can rescue all your karma, go out of the cycle of rebirth. 2. Karma and reincarnation: In Buddhism, karma is presented consists of many types, but essentially bodily, verbal, and attention now. In terms of nature, shall be classified into four categories as follows: a. Extremely important (weighty karma): Heavy Industry kill parents, murder, etc. b. Business practices (habitual karma,): Industry habit forming. c. Accumulate (strored up karma): now due to accumulation from daily life. d. Near-death (death-Proximate karma): now at the point of death. As mentioned, during the revolving cycle of birth and death, from life to life, now always played a central role of the rotation. However, in the field of rebirth (Reincarnation), e now is kienn access the most important direct influence on the in sinh.Can from now, on a certain angle, can be said as a result she throughout the life of a human life; same time, it is also the most powerful, promote human consciousness before, during, or after his death looking for a rebirth. Normally students money, who do good or to do evil, the actions (of body, speech and mind) that are stored in the Museum (alaya) as seed sown in and lie dormant in the ground, until the dying or dead, body and the faculty is no longer active, then only the mind works. however, the mind at that time is not in a state of mind static, autonomy, flexibility and so on., but instead it fell into a state of unconsciousness, coma, shock, beat lost soul distorted ... And at that time, all human artifacts, or good or evil (or good karma or bad karma), from in qua1 past (when alive) will form the wake of the powerful force to impulse of human consciousness going to find scenes giioi re. It should be noted that the customs, habits, especially the luye1n love, attachment when alive will affect very large to e-business access. Therefore, if you live peacefully died peacefully. Life is suffering because of greed, hatred and delusion, of course, death is suffering like. Because life and death only on a process, such as waking and sleeping. So, to liberation, even in here and now ggio, must always radial to the renunciation, purification, removing everything participating preferred and cling. He taught that: "The world is like a boat, go on it but do not carry." From a few details, we see that the life and che61t of people with peace or not depends on the individual's mind. After the life span of all - death, then the body will melt tanks, but the line now (consciousness) will continue into the new life of the six realms: the sun, the, asura, hell, hungry ghosts and animals, depending on the good or bad karma. 3. Karma - and rebirth: According to the Central (Volume I), the appearance of people always meet three conditions: a. Parents rice; b. The mother can conceive; and c. Must be present. If not present, the fetus can not survive. Regarding now formula (Karmic consciousness), also known as the warm flavor, or is out of birth equation (Gandhabha). When eligibility and by now way feel that fetters put into the womb; then, Kiet thu1c feel like "the idea at first;'s a new life. Till death, and his colleagues was promote renewable looking, so-called "reborn." Actually, both the birth and re-birth are based on the operation of the business. And from birth to rebirth (after death), during the life of a student can be formed through the structure of the 12 Human condition: ignorance-coast, coast, of name identity coast, an anonymous identity dependent import continent, the continent coast contact, contact conditions feeling, feeling conditions craving, craving conditions clinging, clinging charming property, coastal property, birth conditions aging, death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, displeasure brain ... (about the ngghia of 12 By the coast, will be gender friendly. karmic So 12 is the existence of man. And 12 By the grace, the more the ignorance, consciousness and mind (matter) are the elements of the business led regeneration. 4 . the concept of death and the intermediate: In Nikaya mention the death as follows: excellent first dead body away, two died from life-expired, and by now in life has expired. Parties Furthermore, there are cases of sudden death (sudden death, not to the at which death). Overall, death is seen as the best body (body) was annihilated. Another problem is that the intermediate . According to some doctrine of painting sets, the amount of the Friends said that, after death and before rebirth, OO between the intermediate (intermediate). timing of this body is the standard be reborn, it lasted no more than 49 days (according to the Set Ma Prince). Maybe due to no more than this notion that custom tighten - left ventricular week (7 x 7 = 49 days). Yet , Nikaya and A Ham, from the "death care" to "lotus birth center" will only take place within a moment or two (split), so no need for the intermediate (center-right). fact, the writer said that the intermediate is a subtle body (physical body), a world realm of the multitude;, and of course it is also impermanent, variation, cycle of birth and death. So no contradiction between "death" and "lotus birth center" in Nikaya with whether or not the perspective view the intermediate colors. Correspondingly, the period of 49 days for a body - of course nothing unreasonable in the world has the longest life in just a few days, as swarms of mosquitoes, etc. 5. To have a death in peace - peace: This is the key issue of man, As mentioned, the life and death as well as wake and sleep, that's all. We should not care too much about death, because everyone is dead. But what is more interesting is how life and to death comment Security. Correspondingly, for Buddhists need spiritual life to keep clean, do not do anything to cause suffering for ourselves and for others, one is always aware that life is impermanent, "ceiling This time is the bridge, go through it and not to build a house on it. "So when the mind is pure, peaceful, no regret, no longer cling to anything, oil fortune career oil, beautiful wife wise etc., then your death as the boat into the river, liberation from suffering, died in blissful peace. Buddha: "Skip past, present and the back to the other side of Italian life freed all your problems of birth, old age, sickness, death " C. Conclusion: Learn about reincarnation is to live in peace and liberation. We are not trying to meet the reincarnation , as reincarnation flowing right of every human body, such as blood circulating. The life of suffering is desire and holding the object "me" and "I love, I love . "Can you let go from the psychological desire and hold it, but if a mai ... impermanent death to ask you then you go immediately to abandon all afferent all, not craving all, the pure peace, mindfulness-awareness; since it is the essential condition for rebirth into a better life and higher. And to do it now and here, you practice thinking about impermanence and selflessness. "I left anything Behold the non kicking foot, it's sandy river by wandering from the previous cycle of ignorance and walks miles distant about ...
