PART1:THE METHOD OF BUDDHISM.

Part I: the method of Buddhism.By Nguyen Minh Tien

The basic teachings of the Buddha, as today we learned thanks to the research of original articles, it's clear, simple and very consistent with modern ideas. No one can deny is the achievement of one of the most transcendent wisdom so far that mankind has ever known. H. g. Wells, English writer and historian

During the course the Dharma first beginner I attended, teachers taught that: "the Buddha often advised his disciples: ' don't because we respected that accept the teachings of the ta, which is analyzed and verified as gold miners gold refined by cutting and fusing it. ' You are a smart people, so let's think about what was heard in this course. Don't accept blindly. "

I'm relieved. I told myself: "well done! will no one forcing you to believe in anything, or his captain if not good news. "

During the course of that, I was encouraged to comment, what about the topic yet. I appreciate this approach, because it suits my tendencies is to analyze and explore the issue from many different angles.

It is the method of Buddhism. Position of the US is respected and encouraged. There aren't any dogma would to have to believe in blindly. In fact, we are free to choose any of the teachings of the Buddha are appropriate to us at this time, and all the other things, not criticism. The teachings of the Buddha as a buffet every effort perfectly. I liked this dish, others like the other dishes. We don't have to eat all the food, nor be forced to choose what other people choose.

Similarly, one theme or one of meditation in Buddhism can be attracted towards it, while a other method is important to you. We should learn and practice in line with their capacity at present to be able to improve the quality of life. In this way, we will gradually understand and realize the Dhamma that initially seem difficult or not important to me.

This open approach can be use is because the Buddha describes the experiences of people and methods of perfecting them. He did not create our reality, also invented the path towards enlightenment. You only tables on our experience, the mind and the feasibility of practical methods for dealing with the problem of instability in daily life. When describing nh ng negativity, suffering and the causes of them, Buddha also taught the method of the exception. He pointed out the great potential of our employees and to develop. The evaluation of the veracity of the word of Buddha through logical inference and the experience itself is entirely up to us. Thereby, our belief is firmly established and more solidly.

Buddhism does not put too much emphasis on the Buddha as a man, or to those who work under him, i.e., the Sangha, which insist on Chief Justice French, i.e. the Dhamma and the evidence. Germany is a potential Buddha-ni was born here more than 2,500 years in India, not born already is full rank. He has also served as the ordinary people like us, also shared the turmoil and doubt as we. Thanks to follow the practice toward enlightenment that he became a Buddhist.

Similarly, we each have the potential to be great, omniscient and good craftsmanship. The distance between the Buddha and we are not able to overcome, as we can also become the Buddha. when we created the agent of enlightenment by accumulating happy and intellectually, then naturally we will show up. Many people have done so. Although when it comes to the Buddha is the only German to Buddha, but in fact there are many other Buddha.

Germany is a potential Buddha-ni was revered because he has to purify his consciousness streams from all che obstacle course and develop all the nice features products to perfect levels. The Buddha has done things that we desire to do, and the teachings of Jesus, as was outlined in this book, will show us the method to overcome the limits of themselves and develop themselves fully. The Buddha has given his sense of wisdom for us and we are free to choose the reception or not. The Buddha does not require in one faith or loyalty, and I didn't blame if there are different points of view.

The Buddha advised we should be practical and focus on the right issues, not to disperse Italian by the deductive waste. He mentioned for example a person was hit by poison arrows. If he insisted on knowing the name of the shot, it kind of thing, which is where productivity and type of supply would have been used to shoot ... and then agreed to withdraw the arrow out, then he'll die before knowing the answers. This has meant survival for him is to treat the wound right now and prevent any complications later.

Likewise, when we are stuck in a rotation of the physically unstable and mentally, then the result is stupid if Italian mentality to mislead by the idea of reasoning on issues not related to which I can not answer right away. The cornered all efforts on what matters will be wiser than many.

There is a sequential process [can] get over the limit ourselves and develop spiritual beauty. First, we listen to or read books to learn about a legal subject. Then we're thinking, projecting about disciplines. We use the logical inference to analyze and survey the view he disciplines compatible with how these experiences in the life of our own and from what I observed in the lives of everyone around us. Finally, we apply this new understanding of integration into our lives, so that it becomes a part of us.

The basics of Dharma is very simple and can be practiced in daily life: we should wholeheartedly helping others, and when unable to help then please avoid harm.

It's compassion and wisdom, is the conscience of man. That is not what the mystery, magic, nor was it unreasonable or imposed dogma. All of the Buddha are intended to help us develop compassion, wisdom and apply now in daily life. Conscience is not only discussions with reason, that it must be manifested in your life.

The Dhamma of the Buddha called the "middle" for the avoidance of any extremism. For example, let go of the release itself is an extreme, that ascetic himself pressed correctly is also an extreme. The purpose of the Dharma is to help us to live happy and serene, though this is not [the fun] in the conventional sense as sleeping, party ... [Thanks to learn the Dharma,] we know how appeased all the harmful attitudes and emotions, which prevents the happily, and know how to enjoy life without passion, stick or anxiety, fear.

There is an old concept that to become devout or "Holiness", we necessarily have to deny your own happy myself. That's not true. Everybody craves happiness, and it's great if all of us were happy. But we also need to understand what happiness is and what is not happy.

In Buddhism, [first] we learn out about the many kinds of different happiness that we're likely to experience. Then I traced the cause to true happiness, in order to ensure that our efforts will yield results as expected. Finally, we created the causes taken to happiness. Happy-as well as suffering-not incidentally or accidentally comes to us, nor do the extra penny from me for a certain superiors. As with all things in the universe, happy b. starting from the specific cause. If we create the happiness, the result of natural happiness will come. This is a systematic process of cause and effect, will be clear in the following chapter.

The goal of Buddhism to the nature, clarity and the ability to improvise. Who would qualify the product as it is extraordinary. With the innocent, we remove the look directed risk lies and selfishness, whereby equal compassion Center was brought up in the us. With discernment, we eliminate the confusion by ignorance, rather it is the users get real. With the ability to improvise, we are no longer under the influence of the impulsive ideas, which were naturally the most effective and appropriate to do benefits for other people in any circumstance.

Thanks for developing compassion and wisdom, I am more pleased with the [life] and knows what is important in life. Instead of bustle in my life with dissatisfaction constantly aspires to be more, better, we're going to transform the perception of his life to whatever life under any circumstance I saw happy and can make your life more meaningful.

Some people may argue that Buddhism teaches us to be passive and alienate others. So as not to understand correctly the word of Buddha. Although [the Buddha teach that] getting yourself removed erroneous concepts and emotions are not in the right direction is of interest, but that doesn't mean we were lacking in vigour and purpose. Actually vice versa! When no longer crush mistakes, be flexible and the vigilance. We will sincerely care about taking care of others. Even though we have the ability to accept any situation would happen, but we're always positive benefit for everyone around me.

Three broken vase

The Buddha used the example of three broken vase to explain on how to remove barriers to learning. Jar firstly capsizing. Unable to ping in the pouring. This is similar to reading books while watching television. I get distracted to the point that I read almost nothing comes into mind. The second tank was punctured a hole in the bottom. Although it may be poured in but couldn't hold back. [This is similar to when] I have noticed reading books, but then a friend asked me what's the book, I can't remember. The third pot is dirty. Whether we have clean fresh milk bottling milk on it and not been flowing out, but the milk she couldn't drink. This is similar to the Dhamma through the ideas and prejudices of his own. I could not understand because France was contaminated by the wrong interpretation.

It's hard to get rid of their prejudices, because sometimes we do not consciously be aware of yourself as biased. A proposed solution to this problem is we should try to get to understand each topic in the context of itself, don't ever leave interpretation to make it conform to a system which otherwise [entertainment comments] has learned. Thus we would approach the subject in a fresh way, with an open mind. Once we understand in the context of itself, then the compare the similarities [between Dhamma] with the psychological disciplines, science or a [System] philosophy, religions will have better results.

This book is not due a scholar writing out to a group of intellectuals, which just like the share between this person and others. We not only learn about what the Buddha taught, but also to consider how to apply in daily life like that again. To do that, we have no need for himself to be Buddhists, because the pursuit of happiness by living a meaningful life is universal. We will try to look back at his own life with a conscience and discernment, as these people are going to find happiness and wisdom. It is the method of Buddhism.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY THICH CHAN TANH.MHDT.WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER= VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUNS=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.26/7/2013.NAM MO SAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).
