Vesak: ideals of freedom and equality in Buddhism.

According to Buddhist tradition, North, day four: 's birthday, renunciation, and Enter nirvana of the Buddha are different. Birth of Buddha's birthday is on full moon, the lunar calendar; renunciation day Eight, the Decembrist leader August day and enter Nirvana day full moon in February. On own's birthday being the Sanskrit known as Vesak.

According to Buddhist traditions, Vesak Day is a combined Delta-all three of the coast's birthday is important, the birth and Nirvana of the Buddha on the celebrations ever held on the full moon day (full moon) of April every year.

As well as these religions tend to sanctify life of the Cardinal, the Buddha was also the posthumous repurposed many more mysterious and transcendent about the incident He turned her birth is the place. As the Queen enjoyed His story, Ma-how find white elephant six ivory on the Sun bay down, the place known to have conceived; When Mrs-Rails tree Forest Park where the hip and from Nuns Bhikkhu-right of her magical beings to usher in lower Crown Prince Who Reached him. And unlike the younger son who are crying in the oa oa, to take steps to take seven steps, each step he hatched a đóa shower, a hand just Sun, a hand just the land concluded that "the only divine world unique junction". The time, the whole universe is rocked with the bright lights shine, Angels rained flowers down to praise to the Savior has just launched. This is the most beautiful myth to sanctify one's latitude because we or the concept that great a regular human, of course, to have a life other than the trivial. So the myth that there is no harm at all, no damage whatsoever to the true historical facts can evidence be.

The Buddha was a human being, in addition to the legendary great sanctification, lower birth as a man like us, He never claimed to be God or the Lord of the heavens, but through the relentless efforts that the human ability permits, he was known as the Buddha, the enlightened Ones. He is not a pool Fan, not the Sun stands for Love, ain't She-la-Mon (Brahma-Vishnu and Shiva of the Hindu religion), in which He bluntly declared, we are enlightened. And after the Enlightenment, he has because of the vast compassion of the bodhisattva of salvation being that lectures France Zhuan Falun. So, we as human beings are enlightened, can the Buddha as he is, as he himself has confirmed to us. That is the ideal of equality, which Western scholars of today were extremely cult and return to research as well as practice in the Buddha's moral Like Ca.

Each one presents a Buddha for the benefit the living being. The primitive Buddhism and Mahayana agree about the existence of six Buddhist past, from Bhikkhu-BA-TA (Vipassi), construction-engineering (Sikkhi), Flag--XA (Vesabhu), to mahākāśyapa Buddha (Kassapa), etc., are all positive to tenets Xuan Nirvana moksha as eternal truths, boundless, immutable; Each exists a realm Buddhist (Buddha-kalpa) in this universe. A Buddha reincarnation include the constant ha s a Great number of lives (Mahà-kalpa) which include infinity sub in past (Kalpa), each half to survive millions of years across the universe; illustrates the concept of time and space of Buddhist truth is endless. And only a concept of time, Buddhism was also enough cleaning force to nghễ dignified, proud to receive and respond to the advances and discoveries of modern physics; what such achievements in space sciences through to near little further that Buddhism has taken more than two thousand years ago, in a context of General marine radio not endless infinite boundless life.

The greatness of the Buddha S Talks Like Ca, Saturday, Buddha is not in where he was a prime witness Nirvana, which is that, after the many lives lost in the French binders of Buddha mahākāśyapa, Nirvana once again was Germany Like Ca, announced, and practical expressions, not for himself, but for a multitude of beings. French Director Xuan Duong again until Germany Maitreya, the future Buddha, further directions being the way the rescue, because, the doctrine of Buddha Tara, in the past as well as the existence of constant sa HA in the future Telecom Cambodia extremely, there is only one: that was freed. The primary legs of Buddhists, we need to affirm:

In the context of the history can be verified by science and French Director of Buddha Like Ca indeed are unique. Which the Dhamma of the Buddha's teachings are very practical and scientific evidence might be. The Buddha also encourages His disciples to second-guess himself, thinking for himself, used to assess intelligence, separate and even criticism to the Buddha before the certification that's right to the truth and be believed. The words He taught such as: "it is Information that does not understand It is canceling One grip", or when He speaks of the Kalama, is the statement that today almost all philosophers in the world to offer cult the Buddha was a man who had a spirit of openness and Liberation, not to a method or a way to bind the legs of his chief disciples: "This somewhat hastily, Kalama anything just that it is a reminder to always; don't believe something, whether they are old people's pen moves left and one must believe; don't believe something, whether it be the biased opinion or a longstanding practices advocacy; don't believe something, whether it's in the power of a master or a missionary. The Kalama, all the truth, according to the experience of thee and confirmed is clearly consistent with common sense, make up happiness for you and for the species, then that is the truth, and the life was the Kalama let the truth "(Increase One A Rank 188)

In the spirit of openness, even to the teachings or law are also More thorough checking first. As soon as the Buddha killing the President, held a Steady lead that he was taking the headset was my Buddha teach like that, then the statement will have to stock giảo back by another student respect, because the record or add own opinions of him not quite as reliable. The Dhamma that the Buddha taught us to be called eternity (sanàtana), which is extremely (akàlika).

Asita hermit's prophecy that "Buddha's birthday by birth because of the benefits for the birth" was viewed as a fact of history, but is no longer a myth of the Oracle predict anymore. So, the Buddha gave birth not just as individuals, but as being, for the good for all beings, and who, because of infinite compassion by Ben, He is Revered as the Plant engineer.

Today we honor The German Crown because he is not a monk, was not the Nirvana achieved immortal, but because he is the Buddha, the enlightened, already meets the supernatural functions in practice The past level Kayla HA sa account, not the master instructed, that covered the major obstacle on the road to Nirvana and againfootsteps of Buddha, as thousands of old, open which opened the way to liberate beings are traveling to find means of reaching the destination point for yourself. (Sangharaksita, A Survey of Buddhism, p. 69-70). The fundamental distinction between the Buddha and his disciples, as well as Institutional client or the millions of Buddhists today, early in his life so far this century, discovered the way to Nirvana and instructed us to that path; others just follow.

Also, about the last days of the Buddha, there are also myths and inserts into the historical facts. As in "great bowl of Nirvana", has stated that the Buddha variations before the President, as his medical flaming up, into the glare of a halo surrounding His body. And the flower spike on the two sa-la where He lies down as quằn to most of His fans, we hear about as well are natural breath to His Religious ceremony The girl bowed about a farewell to the world. Today, the US donation Buddha with flowers statue in front of religious consecration to him, which is due from the picture of the flower spike sa-la due to this surf? So even though the Buddha has suggest we shouldn't ever pay homage to Him with the religious consecration, we still don't feel was contrary to the teachings of Jesus as the center of the temple to the beautiful spike to Between the true Buddha. teachings and routine habits based on the legendWe've rounded up the duty of a Buddhist component of net worth. But the most important thing is still the practice of the Buddha, when A Nan worried don't know is going to baptise the death of Buddha, then He taught that, not to be confused about the bereavement rituals for Him which is: "sophisticated efforts thấn to reach the rescue" because "as the index is the only way".

As human beings, have reached-apply empirical rules when searching for truth, principles for experiments and mistakes, failures, not once but many times. He had learned the six masters of the time, the net school for six years, but all the methods they taught were not entirely, not to the rescue. Six years of ascetic heavenly jungle made Crown Prince what is received in the extreme, a side of the festivity, one side is too dry, nor brought to the rescue. Only the main routes between the Centre, like a new guitar to strings play sounds great, not too nhùng, not too stressful, just brought to enlightenment. On 49 after meditating under the root Bodhi, also on the full moon day of April, Crown Prince-meets-one monks reached enlightenment, the Chief Senate Primary class Champion (Samyak Sambodhi), a prime witness of ancient truths no one knows about, only to the Buddha's teaching master degree.

After its leader, the Buddha mind thinking of the old teachers should purposely look for them, but unfortunately for them has passed away, died without privileged credentials to be freed as he. New Buddha figure in the Council of asceticism as of old, and he was the first French post theories about the four noble truths and birth for five Jiao Chen As listeners. Heaven moves, because the truth has been declared, an absolute truth, through time, not space beyond a philosophy would be.

The teachings of the Buddha for his Devadatta (Subhadda) are is a subject for many subsequent studies. He asked the Buddha that the six masters of the time (Green foreign leaders) have not filled their feet thoroughly. Six of which are: 1. Pura Kassapa, Makkhali destined theory Gosala, 2., theism. Ajita Kesakambali., materialism, 4. Pakudha Kaccayana, affirmed, 5. Sanjaya Balatthiputta (ex-teacher to develop Your benefits-and-Hostel moggallana) advocate agnosticism or skepticism, and 6. Nigantha Nataputta advocated the theory of relativity and eclectic.

In other words, teachings of the masters Alàra Kàlàmà Rafmaputta Udaka, etc is not totally wrong but not completely, because does not lead to liberation, which is just a State of mind that's loving, because based on the foundations of true scepticism and transcendental Buddhism, because Buddhism is very practical and can evidence be. Practices and evidence are just because the truth that Buddha discovered applies equally and evenly with all living things, not just for Buddhists only, death, illness will come to visit anyone. No one denied it, hence the Buddha's teachings is a universal doctrine, without bias, not the term at all.

In Germany The Religion without practice under the Act public schools Bowl will not bring practitioners reach four Saints, i.e. to save off the rescue, religion is viewed as a righteous religion reflect bowls of the Chief Justice, because the whole package is directed toward Bowl three activity, and Italy where every man of uscomprehensive, that is, a real life human being. Let's take an example of mindfulness. Practitioners must keep the notion always clean and peaceful, always thinking of moral impermanence, egolessness and eradicate the accept stage, the maze of thought real, not to desire his haul, always remember thinking mind of compassion and openness. Ta do lead to negative ideas, being soaked desire about blur.

When enlightened about the truth of this, the original bodhi tree, after 49 days meditating remains consistent, that the Buddha was enlightenment from their intrinsic intellectual disabled discrimination and Tanh equality, rather than a revelation from the outside in to. That is why from intern at, so the Buddha had both decided that he was a Buddhist who founded, and we, who knew his way that He only taught a dignified way, and also as the Buddha like Himself. "It is he, who is the Buddha will become", was all the philosophers and scholars around the world is getting a message of freedom and equality of mankind. Only the path of the Buddha was brought to liberation, peace and enlightenment. That way, the way users access, waive two extreme enjoyment and pressed ascetic body positive. He has come through that route, and enlightenment, The leader; Now He just left us, if we are on the right way there, will also be enlightened as Himself.

We also need to remember that the enlightenment of the Buddha not only limit the category in the four noble truths and the bowl of the Chief Justice, the principle of The Erren, Impermanence, Egolessness or nirvana. One cannot measure the wisdom Buddha's enlightenment. we rate Him As teaching that, where the ruling leaves Simsapa fistful, out of hand, He said that his intelligence as leaves in the forest, He taught us the only country holding area in the hands only. But a handful of leaves well enough for full-foliage in the Woods and then, because we just need to be taught to know and practice the Buddha instructed us that could have enlightened are like Him.

Today, we have yet to find the reason why the Northern Buddhist tribes divided on 4 's birthday, renunciation, and Enter nirvana of the Buddha, in the primitive Freemasons at Buddhist combines the three most important's birthday, the birth and Enter Nirvana; However, oil on one or the other of us has also been an extremely virtuous Sangeeta compassion of the Buddha's birthday presents when he was born to bring to it a transcendental teachings, the most common and popular realms does this lady. We may have great charm is being done, to hear the Dhamma of the Buddha, if not mind practicing then it turned out she was the woman of compassion of the Buddha as the mercy being about black that this place Is a treat her very well. Practice has many traditions, which scores so far as Pure beings bridge to the world of Extreme Buddha Amitabha meditation and visualizations for permanent lens names of the great wall. Any traditions of the Buddha taught us are taken to the rescue, which is a true experience is over how much of the Prime institutional securities and upasaka righteous Act amendment passed through many centuries. For Vesak Day being the day of encounter for many Buddhist activities today, we celebrate the Vesak celebrations is to remember the presents of the Buddhist way.
