Go in search of the ego in the culture of India.

1. "run the States marine world has only Ego alone, in the shape of a human being (Purusha). He looked around not seeing what else besides myself. At first he thought: ' this is Mine ' thus he became known as ' Me '. Thus, from then onwards, until today, if a person is asked to, he's first going to say ' I'm here ' and then later introduced his real name. Ego destroy all things wicked sins, so he has become a man ... " [Phan Thu Hien 2007: 46]

It was one of the creation myths of India was told in Upanishad. And the story on giving an answer always preoccupied the human desire to explore himself: I was the one between the immense space this mysterious (or "what is the ego?")

Trace the traces of history, when the Aryans had conquered India, at that time, they like the kids poems explore nature by nature eyes clear across the Court to the American psyche in the Vedas as the praise singer Usha (Dawn), Agni (the God of fire), ca proceedings ... And then they go from West to East, gradually advanced down the South according to the style of winning until stepping into the tropics. Because of the hot climate, they decided to opt for accommodation in the cool forest in a mountain range lies along the foot of the Himalayas towering. Gradually, they see the mountain as the ideal residence and now they have customs viewed here as the subject for speculation.

So after the Aryan peoples conquered India with their horses, now effectively being subjugated by mystical influence of nature. But instead of overlooking the course, discover the secrets of the universe, the Indians looked inward, reflecting on themselves, to find out the relationship between man and nature as the relationship between the tens of thousands, living between the Himalayan mountains. Among men of thousands of questions are posed the question: "what is the ego?" (or am I?) is considered most important. Not only because it is a question associated with the fate of the Indian peoples, but it is a question of root causes. Everybody think, judge, Act are put before an existing egos. "The thing I was standing up like a Center, a judge to become a point of reference for everything about a thousand things phenomena I soi on that identification, the judge" [Hengshan Huang Sy 1974 Quarter: 20]. But it's tragic how, I again contain intrinsic contradictions. It just is it, that's not it. The constant discord in the nine-turn this translation that the ego it is hard to determine. "I couldn't catch his ego, as it trờn first glance as flowing water drifting clouds. Right now in the present moment, I just feel I'm clumped together, but then the feeling then broke out through the passage of time ". [Hengshan Huang Sy 1974 Quarter: 21]. And the world is India the slopes off his mind goes in search of her ego-"aspired to look for the root causes of something that already exists under the operational chain, head, allergic reactions, destroy. Not just one or the other being seen that all kids are seeing, all as a whole. That, and all that, what is it? Root causes from? "[Tue Sy 2007: 230]

But it wasn't easy as "very hard to understand the ego" [Phan Thu Hien 2007: 40,], because of the ego ", smaller than all the little kid, greatness than any of the great ones, it took refuge in the heart of the creation." [Phan Thu Hien 2007: 41]

2.So the ego (or I)?

To explain this, the Upanishad has:

"Let's drop the salt in water and then tomorrow came to him".

Children do as his father.

The father said, "Please take us that salt water gave in the last night".

Children looking for but not found, of course, because salt has dissolved in the water.

The father says: "Let's taste the water which on the surface. It's what? ".

His answer: "it's a salty".

Take a sample of water at the bottom. ? "

"Salty, dear father".

The father said: "pour water that go and come meet us here".

Children pour the water away but salt persist forever.

Then the father said, "here, well the a, do not doubt any longer, you will not realize the reality (sat) but in fact it still exists".

That, that is the nature of reality, all that exists has its Self in it. That is real. That is, it is also the son Svetaketu ". [Phan Thu Hien 2007: 45]

It's hard to understand when explained what is the ego, the Sage India has told these stories with metaphor. The story above is just a little story in countless stories to explain what is the ego. To understand what ego was hard, go find it even harder. After you understand what is the ego, the Upanishads Taoist go in search of her true self, to answer "who are We?" between universe messianic this van because apparently in every man has an ego. I was thinking, perceptions, suffering, happiness; I love her, knowing hatred. But, verily, this body does not exist forever, and both the consciousness change of the conscious mind as rain lightning sa huyễn silhouette is or. We did nothing, or is something when all things that dissolve? I then now? A grain of salt released into the bowl of water, salt, no longer found anywhere. However, any water drops would then also contain salt. Salt melting away but still something that, in crystals of salt, don't disintegrate. At the time, the ego has identified with the ego-cosmic soul:

"Great falls or ego to infiltrate in the world until the beginning of fingers toes, like a razor blade, or as fire can completely snug in the seat of the fire.

Unable to see him because only can see a part of Him. When breathing, His name is breath, when it comes, the name he's speech, as seen when he is released, and names, the name he is the ear, when thinking, name him as the mind (...) This ego is the trace of everything, because through it he knows all. And like a man who could see what was lost due to the remaining of it, who knows the ego can also find glory and fame.

Ego we close over all, more closely adjacent, sons more than wealth, more than everything else.

And if someone says that there is something else near him over the ego, he will lose what is dear to him. People worship alone close the Ego. Who would know to worship only the ego as the most intimate of love objects, he will for ever ". [Phan Thu Hien 2007: 87.88]

So then, in the course of searching for the ego, the Upanishads hermit asked: this is me? Right. The other is I? Right. Because all the ones that have the same nature to me, is the one with the ego-soul of the universe. Have an ego, often in this body as the air in the same tank, and is a uniform, with the air outside. And there is a transcendental ego, nine schools, not born there. "Please know that the immortal soul which embodied in all the universe. No one can destroy the immortal soul surfaced. But the body where the eternal soul that resided the fake goodbye and ruined "[Phan Thu Hien 2007: 58]. A person who understands that, then there is no longer anything to fear. A brave General (Arjuna) on field equip yourself with the knowledge that can fight without hesitation, because of the perception that "the soul can not guillotine kill also cannot be killed. The soul is not born nor and not when the current stops. Infertility soul, usually constant, eternal, and ancient, although when exactly environmentally destructive souls still exist ". [Phan Thu Hien 2007: 59]

If asked, the Great Falls? Hermit the Upanishads would answer: all is one. This whole is Falling; "what is it, is the know it all" [Veda the Upanishads 2001: 140]. And "all the people in the refuge (great falls), yearning to be free of old age and death, that people will show up, full enough, Braman, the ego and the Act.

Those who saw enlightenment was one of the universe, the spirit, and in the sacrifice, the people, the spirit of peace, were it even when in bed dying ". [Indian epic 2004: 398]

Such is life in meditative hypnosis man to probe the inner realm, the hermit Upanishad has noticed that in every man the immortal self contained function. That is the Great Falls or the self. "A be absolute as region of the ocean, and the self (ego) they're born like the waves, the waves have found everything about million, as has his personality title. But all the waves are just water and then return to the ocean. Sea water has become, only the range of the heat of desire makes every waves illusion that he had it, but the nature of the waves still just water only. The water of the ocean that is the straightforward nature, usually the President, infertility, head of the self. The wave is only a relative reality is virtual huyễn ". [Le Sanctuary 1966: 78] that is the journey in search of the ego of the musician and the Upanishads. What about Buddhists?

3.right from the Enlightenment, the Buddha has denied the existence of the Ego and the ego and then set up a new concept of anatta (anatman). Buddha view life is suffering, and pain treatments. So how suffering?

According to Buddhism, human beings suffer due to accept the fall while the French van escaped falling. Humans are just one entity to be bound by these rules and others. A person who is subject to a human colon charm. When existing combine charm, when Lydia tan, that person is not available. If all things available depending on a human colon then coast manifestation that is only one available depending only; There is something in the universe can live real variables. And when people did is a distinct subject a colon, then the coast guard personnel if that person accept the ego that "this is mine, this is mine, this is my ego," he only causes more suffering for himself and for others.

"Therefore, we are always creating and ever-changing. The human species forever floating on the waves of cargo "samsara" (reincarnation), live stream. We create work and translated as a whole that we keep taking forever in my life. Not afraid to lose the computer, because our current ego, as a whole, as a result of the cause that we call the ego of our past; also, in the future, our ego can not lose because of that we were born free to create. Find a weak invariant properties of a possible change is ridiculous. " [Junjiro Takakusu 2007: 106]

The Buddha gave the theory of egolessness, but not simply have it. In there that you singer Vacchagotta to ask Buddha: the ego exist? Buddha's silence. Back to the question: the ego does not exist? Buddha was also silent. Vacchagotta wasn't answered, and he stood up.

In the Medium āgama also tells that Bhikkhu-Malunkya pretentious to ask Buddha: the world is usually constant or non-constant usually, finite or infinite, the soul with the body is one or the other. As Hybrids exist or not exist after death. He asked the Buddha replies, determines the sixteen uninhabited metaphysical. If The Sun saw and knew then say see and know. If not, the answer is no. If the problem was not explained, Bhikkhu-this pretentious warning will give this almond range, will not follow the Buddha. But He also did not answer that question, which leads to the example story people were poisoned arrow struck, then the Buddha that: "we do not confirm this. Because this does not work with Samyutta Samyutta, with France, the basic non-violation, not put to rest, not brought to, does not lead to Nirvana. So it is not settled this thing ". [Medium āgama, Jing Jian example]

From the silence of Buddha which has caused much controversy over two millennia ago. This silence says what? "The Buddha's silence was interpreted as voter opinion those transcendent accept and accept the paragraph. And of course, if the Buddha answered there, contrary to what the Buddha teaches the Bhikkhu-pretentious. If the Buddha said no ego, all the shock to Vacchagotta which says that, "before, I had an ego. Now it's not there anymore. " Who just lost a Kingdom that suicide case, the genus is lost both the "ego", then the loss is not trivial ". [Tue Sy 2008: 257.258]

But not only that, it was the disagreement between the Mahayana and the silence of Buddha. Buddha does not accept an ego in humans, so the U.s. admit that absolutely no self. By contrast, the Mahayana is that one carries is known as Jia fell ripped off. When we no longer themselves with self imagine and use it to fight the life, then going to see the falls is a large something covering the whole of the universe. Affordable here with similar falls in the Upanishads?

In fact, "the Buddha School does not find exist such an ego beyond piles of aggregates, aggregates. The five aggregates, promoting the rise of the five aggregates, such as each wave shove each other out in the ocean, creating the illusion of an ego often constants exist underneath or inside all these impermanent transform. Do not accept the ego usually hang, also does not accept its views the destruction, nothingness. So, the Buddha says, in a limit of impaired thinking, can translate into the validation exists an ego, which also can absolutely negates its existence as such. There are discrepancies between the two views: the view from the keep and the view from the base. The real news is a projection in the current correlation, or in fact the foot as. Just looking or views, real still like it ".

4.But although Indian thought are more controversial or disputed denials, they were observed around the matter of ego. Taiken Kimura as saying: "the ' anatta ' new Buddhism ' look we see as may seem to contradict the stance the ego, but really you just explain the ego in the form that is still taking the ego-centered" [Kimura Taiken]. There is also, not well, "there is no, no news is there".

And the Sage are taken to a crux is resolved the conflict in, looking for the source of absolute Bliss, known as the Upanishads Taoist is when the ego in Great Falls, also with Buddhism is shown to enter Nirvana. So, no need to go find where Minor falls and Great Falls, which should eradicate the concept of pretending insanity ideas expected by the " END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY THICH CHAN TANH.WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUNS=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.13/5/2013.NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).
