The Buddha Taught That.            ************************************************

•  •       Chapter I: the spiritual attitude of Buddhism. Among the founders of religions, Buddha (if we can call Him the founder of a religion in the conventional sense of the noun) is the unique Masters was not claiming to be nothing more than a human, just a man. The Pope is either God, or the divine incarnation in different forms, or divine revelation. The Buddha is not only a human being, you are a human being himself was not a revelation from any one deity or other powers. He claimed all that He achieved, reach and fulfill, are entirely due to human intelligence and effort. Only human beings can become Buddhas. everyone has the ability as the Buddha if they wish and efforts. One could call the Buddha is a great Man. He is so full of good in "humanity" of him that later, in the religion of the masses, He was viewed as a "Superman". According to Buddhism, the human situation. Humans do it yourself home alone, there is an entity or a higher power can dispose of it. The Buddha said: "He Himself is a refuge for us, who else can do helpless?" [1] He advised his disciples be "cry it themselves," should never seek refuge or the help of anyone else. You teach, encourage and promote each release bearing and find freedom for themselves, because of the inherent human capacity for self freed all bound by the wisdom and efforts of yourself. The Buddha said: "The Germans As Lai [3] teaching legitimacy, but you must do your job."[4] If they call the Buddha as a "Savior", just because he has sought out and pointed the way to liberation, Nirvana. But our self, we have to step on the way. Because of the principle of personal responsibility that the Buddha for disciples complete freedom. In the Mahàparinibhàna (Bat out of Nirvana), the Buddha taught Him never to think herself to control Rising (Sangha) [5] and he also does not want this Union depending on Him. He taught that in his teachings, no paranormal theory, there is nothing secret in "German fist Dao Shi" (àcariyamutthi), or in other words, He doesn't hide anything in the sleeves.[6] In the history of religions, people do not see any other religion there is freedom of thought as Buddhism. This freedom is necessary, because according to the Buddha, the liberation of people depending on its users receive the truth, not to the grace of a God or an external powers would reward servitude. Once, the Buddha visited Kàlàmas people in a small city of Kesaputta during the Kingdom of Kosala. When listening to the Buddha, who Kàlàmas to visit and You: "White Germany World Religion, there are many hermit and Brahmin visit Kesaputta. They lecture and sheds light on his theories, but despise, condemn, ban the theories of others. And then there are the hermits and Brahmin also just lecture and clarify their own theories, scorn, condemn and defame the theories of others. But the White World, on our part, we are always skeptical and confused, not knowing which one of the hermits and Brahmin's glass to tell the truth, who says sexual harassment. " Then the Buddha has given them a unique tips as follows: "Ask the people of Kàlamas, you're skeptical, puzzled is a must, because the problem was very suspicious. Ask Dan Kàlamas, don't be tempted by those tactics again, or by tradition, or by rumors. You're not going to be taking the lead by canonical jurisdiction, or by logical reasoning, or by the superficially plausible, or by fun thinking about the views, or by what seems useful, or by the thought: "this is the master." But ask Kàlamas, when you yourself know what is real good, wrong, bad, then take the end off ... and when you yourself know what one is, well, then let's accept, going by. "[7] The Buddha also goes further. He said the Bhikkhu stilts that disciples need to guess even Germany As Lai (the Buddha), to be absolutely sure the value of the teachers that I'm under.[8] According to the teachings of the Buddha, cast (vicikichà) is one of the five hindrances (nivarana, one of five) [9], the five hindrances to understanding truth and for spiritual progress (or for any progress whatsoever). However, suspicion is not a "sin", because in Buddhism there is no such "beliefs". Result, in Buddhism there is no "sin" in "sin" in several religions. Roots of all evil is ignorance (Avijjà) and TA (micchà ditthi). One indisputable thing is how long is still skeptical, puzzled, hesitated, then it can't be improved. Also indisputable is that skepticism cannot be avoided when that people don't understand, clearly. But so far, the absolute need to depart skeptical. To skeptics, we need to see clearly. The problem is not that we shouldn't question or should believe. Just say "I believe", doesn't mean you have to understand and clearly. When students solve a problem to stage do not know how to continue, it will fall on skeptical and confused. If still skeptical, y can not go, so need to end. There are many workarounds; but not just to say "I believe" or "I don't doubt" that solved the problem. Manually forcing myself to trust and accept one thing I don't understand, is a political attitude, not intellectual or spiritual attitude. The Buddha always ban skeptical. Both came when He was dying, a few minutes before Chen left, He also repeatedly told the disciples to ask carefully if there is any doubt about his teachings, so don't regret never ran out of questions. But the disciples were silent. Then the Buddha taught a very touching: "If as respected As Hybrids that you dare not ask what, then each person tell you know" (i.e. every person please thanks you asked to review his concerns).[10] Not only the freedom of thought, but also to the clemency of the Buddha, has made the history of religious studies. A life of excuses in the Nàlandà, a rich and prominent Priority name-she-li (Upàli), a disciple in the name of the Ni-Hopea-death (Nigantha-Nàtaputta) in the States of Mahàvìra, Jaina na was Mahàvìra sent out to meet the Buddha to debate and the rejection of several points in the novel, the newspaper Industry because the Buddha's views on the issue differed from the perspective of Mahàvìra [11]. Contrary to expectations, Upàli after the debate must accept that the views of the Buddha are right and wrong his master's point of view. So he asks the Buddha himself as a disciple in the home (Upàsaka, favor-she-rule). But the Buddha told him to think again, and do not rush, because of "the judgment very carefully distinguished good for people like him." When Upàli to repeat those pleas, the Buddha advised him to keep respect and support of his old masters as before. In the third century before Christ, the Buddhists A Education United Kingdom of India, according to the mirror, virtues and noble sympathy he has respect and enforce the lifting of all religions in the Roman Empire grew wider. In a statement of Emperor carved in stone head to now we read: "People should not only respect the religion itself and the uncle of the other, which must respect others ' religions for this reason or other reasons. How can I make her religious development and help other religion. If not, we have grave buried his religion itself, and also harm other religions. Guys would just respect his ngưỏng credit and ban the other ngưỏng, they did so because of the devotion of his own ngưỏng credits, thought: "I will honour my religion". But on the contrary, when do they hurt his religion seriously. By the Hoa Hao is nice: people should listen, and in good faith to hear the theory that others proposed. "[13] Here, I should also add that the spirit of understanding empathy he now needs to be applied, not only in matters of religious theory, but also in the other realm. The spirit of forgiving sympathy from initial decision has been one of the most popular ideals of Buddhist civilization and culture. The duration in the history of 2500 years, Buddhist missionaries were Asian, and there are now over 500 million adherents. Violence, in any form, any arguments, also are absolutely opposed to the Buddha's teachings. People often ask: Buddhism is a religion or a philosophy? Call it whatever, it doesn't matter, Buddhism is Buddhism, whether you paste up that brand. The mark is dependent. Even the Buddhist marks that we put to the Buddha's teachings nor those ties. The name that we give to Buddhism is not essential. What's in a name? Rose incense her even more. Also, the truth does not need labels, it is not Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, and Islam. Truth is not the monopoly of anyone. The sectarian label is an obstacle to understanding the truth one way in, and they give rise to the prejudice of the disastrous human thought. This is true not only in matters of intellectual and spiritual, but also in the communication between people. For example, when I meet someone, I don't look at them as a human being, which I put to them a mark as England, France, Germany, Usa or Jews, and looks at him with all the prejudice that came with her trademark in mind. But he may be completely beyond those attributes that we assign to them. People who preferred the distinguishing marks, so they set the mark up on the virtues and emotions that everyone has. They speak to the "type" of different charity, such: BAC AI Buddhism and Christian Family, fairness, and fairness mark these scornful. But fairness is not pleasing, it was not a God, Buddha, or Feedback. Love of a mother for not being God or Buddha: it is the mother. The virtues and human emotions such as love, love, compassion, mercy, patience, friendship, desire, hatred, lazy late, foolish, etc. no need for these brands, they do not belong to a religion at all. For people who go in search of the truth, a thought do not come from the relationship. The origin and the development of a thought is matter of academics. Thus, to understand the truth, we don't need to even teachings from Buddha or from someone else. There are clearly problems, understand it. There is an important story in Central (Majjhima-nikàya) (140) to clarify this. One day, the Buddha stayed the night in a workshop making pottery. Also in his yard has a hermit came out to him [14]. They don't know each other. The Buddha observed the hermit and told myself: "this young man has the gestures. We should ask about this person. " By the Buddha asked him: "ask qifu gangui singer [15], who in the name that you gave up the family? Who is your teacher? You like your theory? " Young guy responded: "Oh, you both have the hermit Limited radio stream them Like ca, abandoned the family to become a hermit. It is rumored that there was an Arahant (A-la-Han), a full rank. Key in the name of holy man that I've become a hermit. Who is my Teacher, and I like your theory. " -So do not ignore holy man, the A-la-Han, he's feeling now? -In the parishes to the North, asked you, there is a town called Sàvatthi (Dormitories). That was the main place of Worship That deity, the A-la-Han, all buds are in. -You have had when seeing him yet who That Honor? If met, you will recognize the person or not? -I have never seen Germany So to honor him. If not, I'll also see how to realize it. The Buddha realized that in the name of Jesus that this strange young man gave up his family and become a qifu gangui. Yet not to reveal the tribe. He said: -Ask qifu mumo, I will teach you the theory. Pay attention to listen to. I would say. -Sir, you say. Young people approve. Then the Buddha teach the youth a special theory of truth (which we will present the essential weakness on) [16]. Only after listening to Mr. sermon complete, the hermit named new Pukkusàti realized that people say to themselves is the Buddha. He bowed low her foot in Germany, Administrator, and apologies for not knowing which call to him is "you" [17]. And then he asks the Buddha transmitted about France and getting yourself into mass Increase. The Buddha asked him had medicine, Bowl-ready (a bhikkhu-Bhikkhu stilts-must have 3 y and 1 custard to qifu gangui food). When Pukkusàti answered no, the Buddha taught that the Germany As Lai (Tathàgatas) will not sign the life for a person if they are not available, the bowl. By Pukkusàti go find y and bowls, but unfortunately along the road he was bull's death [18]. The bad news about after he overheard the Buddha, Jesus told his disciples that the Pukkusàti was a holy man who has found the truth and has reached the stage near the end on the road performing Nirvana, and is reborn into another realm, there's you will become an A-la-Han [19] and eventually die to never have to go back to this world.[20] Through the stories we see clearly that when Pukkusàti to listen to the Buddha and his teachings to be listened, he does not know who is talking to who you are, or that of anyone else. He found the truth. If the drug or the disease will heal. No need to know who made the drug, or where. Most of all religions were set on faith – rather, blind faith-but the Buddhist emphasis on the "notice", understand, comprehend, not on faith. In the Buddhist literature texts have the noun Saddhà (Skt. Sraddhà) usually translated as faith, trust. But saddhà is not a "faith" in the conventional sense, but rather it is "credit", generated by the. In Buddhism and budget both in common usage where the texts, we must recognize the noun "saddhà" has a meaning of "faith" when it offered the come up on Buddha, Dharma (Dhamma) and Rose (Sangha, mass Increases). According to Asanga, the great philosopher of the fourth century Buddhist studies, "credit" has three aspects: 1) sure trust and integrity about something. 2) joy stick out about these virtues. 3) The ambition or the desire to fulfill a purpose.[21] Though understand how faith in the sense that most religions have very little relation with Buddhism. [22] Matter of faith that arise when there is no clearly-seen with every sense. As we clearly see, the issue of faith. If I told you that I had a hand in the Pearl, the trust problem arises because you don't see the pearls. But if I open your hand and show you the jewel, then you have seen, the issue of trust is no longer set out again. By the ancient texts in the sentence: "to recognize as one finds a gem in the Palm of his hand." A disciple of the Buddha named Musìla told a priest: "Hey you Savittha, don't have the faith [23] believe, cult, no interest or bias, does not need to hear stories or legends, no need to guess the superficial arguments, do not need fun in our thinking about the conceptI know and see that the cessation of samsara is Nirvana. "[24] And the Buddha taught: "ask the Teacher Bhikkhu on stilts, we say that the wicked thing to eradicate these defilement is essential in order for a person who has seen and know, not to someone who does not see and does not know."[25] The problem always is to know and see and not to be believed. The doctrine of the Buddha called the ehi-passika, invites you to "come to see", rather than to believe. In the articles, the word is always used to refer to people who have food poisoning of truth is the "French label (the eyes of France: dhamma-cakkhu), no dust and no grimy, has arisen:" Who would have seen the truth, have entered into the truth, has overcome skeptics, he no longer hesitated. With true wisdom, he saw as they really are (yathà bhùtam) "[26]. The enlightenment of the Buddha, his teaching: "the eyes arose, arose, arose Prize, light has arisen" [27]. Always there is the notice through the mind or intellect (nàna-dassana), rather than believing through faith. This rain is increasingly being lauded at the time that the doctrines of the Orthodox Brahmin must believe and of course accepted tradition and their authority as the sole truth. One day, a group of distinguished scholarly Brahmin to Buddha and a long debate with Him. One of them, a young Brahmin Kàpathika name sixteen years old, are all considered outstanding intelligence, asked the Buddha [28]: -Ladies in Germany Having talks, the Bible of the Brahmin victories continued through a working transmission. On the economic track, the Brahmin had this absolute conclusion: "this is the only truth, and everything else is wrong." So Germany Having talks will say something about that? The Buddha asked: -Of the Brahmin, Brahmin who would declare themselves know and see that "this is the only truth, everything else is wrong?" Real teens who would rather answer: -No. -Then, a teacher, or a teacher of the teachers in those times back to la on Saturday, or to any person in any of the first authors of the classics, he has stated that he knows and see: "this is the only truth, all the others are wrong? " -No. Well, they are like a series of blind hooked tail to each other, the first one is not found, the Middle sees and also not the last nor see. Thus, it seems the case status Brahmin like case status of a blind man. Then the Buddha for the Brahmin group of an advice of utmost importance: "An American preserve truth should not come to the conclusion:" this is the only truth, and everything else is wrong. " When teens Brahmin asked Him to explain how meaning is "preserving the truth", the Buddha teaches: "What one believes. If y said: "this is my faith," how y has kept possible truth. But y can not go to absolute conclusion: "this is the only truth, and all the others are wrong." In other words a person can believe what is arbitrary, and can say "I believe this". So is y respect the truth. But y not to be because that's the confidence that only something y news is truth, and everything else are false. " The Buddha said: "in front of something (an opinion) and scorn the other things (other views) considered to be inferior to the false position is called the rank-one chains."[29] One day the Buddha teaching [30] for his theory of causation, and they actually have seen and understood that. The Buddha taught successively: "Ask the Bhikkhu stilts, even her conception, transparent and clear, but if you hang on to it, if you you prefer it, if you keep it, if you're bound to it, so he did not understand that just as a raft, used to cross the river and not to hug hold."[31] In one spot, the Buddha taught the metaphor of this reputation, in the Catechism as a raft to cross the River, but not to hold and carry on his back. "Ask the Bhikkhu on stilts, a person traveling, to a wide river. This side is very dangerous, but the other side is an okay and there are dangers. There is a boat to cross the other side of the River, nor is there a requirement to go through. He told myself: "the river is wide, this side is full of danger, but the other side is an okay not dangerous. No boat would do to the other side, well there is a bridge to the past. By then, it will be very good if we collect grass, wood, twigs and leaves to make a raft, and thanks to that raft through the other end for an okay, use both hands to pull against. " And then ask the Bhikkhu stilts, people collect grass, wood, tree, leaves that make a raft, and thanks to the raft was then shipped to the other side is an okay, paddle with their limbs. After having crossed the River to the other coast, y's friends: "the thought has been helpful to me so much. Thanks to it we have overcome an OK to this side of the River, against the paddle by hand foot. Really should bring this raft on the top or on the back of any us where to go. " -Do you think that would ask the teacher Bhikkhu stilts? If you do so, the action of the medicine has to be a proper action for the raft? -World Religion, no. "So then y should do with the raft? After having crossed the river and reached the other side, let him think: "this raft has a huge application with us. Thanks to it we have to come to this side of the River, paddling against an equal limbs. We should let the raft on the water, and then continue to go anywhere. "he was the appropriate action for the raft. Also, ask the Bhikkhu on stilts, I taught a doctrine similar to a raft, it remains in use to pass, not to bring, keep. Ask the Bhikkhu on stilts, have understood that just as a raft, then France (dhamma) you have to actually quit the case, more illegal (adhamma) [32], as should the discharge dropped to know when. " From this metaphor, we clearly see that the teachings of the Buddha's body to bring people to safety, purity, happiness, reach Nirvana (Nirvàna). The whole theory of the Buddha taught are directed to help the wings. He did not say those things just to satisfy curiosity. He was a real Master only teaches these things will bring happy happily for humans. The Buddha once stayed in a jungle of Simsapa in Kosambi (near Allanhabad). You take a handful of leaves, and asked his disciples: -Ask the teacher Bhikkhu on stilts, the master think? Leaves in the hands of one or more leaves in the Woods more? -In Germany The Sun, leaves in the hands of very few enlightened beings, but leaves in the Woods Simsapa untold more truly here. -Well, ask the Bhikkhu on stilts, we just teach you very little from what I saw. What I didn't tell him the truth untold more. And why Such a hybrid has not taught are things? Because it's not beneficial ... does not lead to Nirvana. Thus, I did not say those things.[33] It is useless for me when trying to envisage-as some scholars tried to hopelessly-about what Buddha knew but didn't tell the disciples. The Buddha does not like to discuss metaphysical issues unnecessary, completely in the realm of thinking, arise; He viewed them as a "jungle concept". It seems the main disciple of Buddha also have people who don't like this attitude. A case of Man's pupil (Màlunkyaputta) were actually asked 10 questions of classical metaphysical matters and would the Buddha answered.[34] One day Màlunkyaputta, after meditating on the driver, traveled to Germany Ph t, wealthy girl, sit down one side and ask: -In Germany The Religion, when you're sitting meditation alone, this idea came to me: "there are issues which in Germany That Religion was not explained, to the side and remove. Ðấy is: 1. the universe live, or 2. no market exists; 3. a finite universe, or 4. infinite; 5. the soul is one with the body, or 6. other soul other body. 7. The Tathāgata has survived after his death, or 8. He does not exist after death. 9. He has just just does not exist after death, or 10. He just does not exist and does not exist. The problem in Germany is that Sun has not explained to me, this attitude is not as unsatisfactory. I dislike the attitude. We will go to Germany in world Religion and the ladies asked him about this. If Germany Does not Respect explained to us, we will give unions raise them and leave. If Germany The Religion know the constant field space please say so. If Germany Does not Respect knows the universe is fixed or not etc. the one who don't know Let's say straight out: "I don't know, we don't see clearly". The Buddha's answer for Màlun-kyaputta result has benefits for millions of people around the world today are wasting precious time on metaphysical matters and occupies position themselves in a way not necessary: -We Màlunkyaputta This ever said to him: "Come over here, Màlunkyaputta, Holy life under me, I will explain the matter to him or not?" -World Religion, no. -What about this, you have Màlunkyaputta, he told me: "the White World, you will live the Holy life under him and he will lecture the problems to me?" -World Religion, no. -Now, Màlunkyaputta, I do not say to him: "come live the life of Holiness in the shadow, we will explain the matter to him". And he said to me: "the White World, you will live forever in the shadow of Holiness in Germany That Honor and he will solve his problems." In these cases, ask the other madness, who turned from one? " [35] Ask Màlunkyaputta, if someone says, ' I will not live the life of Holiness under The German Crown if he does not explain to me what's the problem "then y can die before those questions are As Lai. Suppose, asked Màlunkyaputta, a man who was hit by poison arrows and friends she brought medicine to a surgeon. Suppose that then the other said: "we're not going to pull the arrow out if we don't know who fired, who was then a person close to the capital (Ksatriya) or a person (priest class) or a property Phệ (Vaisya, agricultural and commercial class) or a Player in da la (Sùdra-handy lower class)What is her name, her family, her high, low or medium stature, her skin black, Brown or yellow, he comes from the village of the province or municipality. We're not going to pull the arrow out if we don't know the type of bow and would have fired me, chords, what arrow type, made of feathers, and what substance made first name. " Ask Màlunkyaputta, he would die before knowing what any of the questions. Also, ask Màlunkyaputta, if a person says "I will not follow the life of Holiness in the shadow in Germany As Lai until He answers such questions as: world market exists or not, etc.," he will die before he is As Futuristic answer. The Buddha explains to Màlun-kyaputta that Holy life does not depend on the opinion. Although people have opinions about these issues then it's still born, premature aging, disease, suicide, favor, bi, suffering brain ... that the cessation of the (i.e. Nirvana) to me is done right in this life. By this, the Màlunkyaputta, keep in mind: what I explained, then considered to be explained and I didn't lecture, the lecture was not considered. What is the thing we have not explanation? Nine schools in the world or not, etc. (10 opinions on) I didn't explain. Why, ask Màlunkyaputta, which I did not interpret them? Because it's not useful, not the basic relation to the life of Holiness spirituality, does not lead to the sick, Salvation, the cessation of suffering, the static security, penetration, the willow, enlightenment Nirvana. So I didn't tell him about the problems. And what, asked Màlunkyaputta, I explain? I've explained the suffering (dukkha), the cause of suffering, the suffering, and the path taken to the suffering [36]. Ask Màlunkyaputta, why did we explain them? Because it's useful, it's a basic relation to the life of Holiness spirituality, it is taken to the sick, Salvation, the cessation of suffering, the static security, penetration, the willow, Satori, Nirvana. So we have to explain them. "[37] Now let's consider the four noble truths which Buddha told Màlunkyaputta that he has explained.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY THICH CHAN TANH.MHDT.WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.6/8/2013.THICH CHAN TANH.MHDT.
