Origin of Mahayana Sutra.

  

After more than 500 years after the Buddha's passing away, Mahayana Buddhism began to appear, and from which the other sects of Mahayana Buddhism were referred to as the Theravada.

Theravada Buddhism, known as Theravada, Theravada does not recognize the name Theravada and countered: "Economics is not a Mahayana Buddhist teachings." These arguments justify the following remarks.

Argument 1 : Venerable Walpola Rahula's Theravada Buddhism says: "Some people think that 'emptiness' that Nagarjuna said, purely Mahayana teachings. In fact he based on reasonable and non-self Dependent Origination, already present in the Pali texts to writing. "

Once Buddha asked Venerable Ananda: "People say the word 'No', so 'No' is what? Buddha answered Ananda, 'No' is no ego, no anything associated with the earthly ego. Therefore, the world is not self ".

Only Nagarjuna based on two tenets on when he wrote the famous book "Madhyamarg" Madhyamika-karika.

Argument 2 : In the "Heart Sutra explained" the Dalai Lama said: "In these times of aggregation Nikaya only 5 and 4 A-levels only, absolutely no Mahayana sutras." Get to the top of the Dalai Lama means that Mahayana monks creative due later.

Argument 3 : According to the book "The formation of Mahayana" J. O 'Neil, Mahayana Sutra appeared around 100 BC. Thus Mahayana monks is due out later wrote, because no one survived to record the words of the Buddha, after more than 500 years after Buddha's passing away.

Argument 4: When trying to remember to record the Buddha's teachings, it can record only briefly, a few brief pages, like economic primitives, not able to record a parsimonious way, full every detail, such as the stretch of sea Mahayana. Specifically, the Perfection of Wisdom sutras all 600 books, 80 book Flower Adornment Sutra. Time made ​​the experience all this must be a few dozen years, exceeding the time duration of the training. So if say Mahayana monks because aggregation is not reasonable.

Argument 5 : Saying that the canonical order of the Buddha, "the Buddhist Five"?. But in the time aggregation, we only recorded increase of Agama Agama time during that period did not say anything to the other, such as the Hoa Nghiem, Phuong Dang time, Prajna time, the Lotus Sutra. Thus "the Buddhist Five" is no basis to believe it.

Argument 6 : Saying that because Mahayana Bodhisattva Maitreya, Manjushri aggregation and transmission for high-rise like Mr. Ma Ming, Nagarjuna, Asanga, Vasubandhu ... this evidence too mystical, because two Bodhisattva on the invisible, formless.

Argument 7 : Words Mahayana, Theravada and Mahayana, Hinayana only found in the scriptures about 600 years after the Buddha passed away 500 years. Thus the Buddha did not say two words above.

Argument 8: Theravada and Mahayana were written by monks. The difference between these two types of business are:

* Experience as Theravada monks by aggregation, recorded teachings of the Buddha honestly, no more, no less so called economic primitives. Meanwhile, the ...

* Business Mahayana monks post birth due after more than 500 years, voluntarily deployed according to Buddhist teachings of understanding individuals, more this, no less than the other and not by monks aggregation so Mahayana very contradictory, to say yes, when to say no, when really, when damaged.

* Examples of the contradictions: In the four foundations of mindfulness, Theravada Buddhism is written: French troops as legal, Mahayana Buddhism was recorded as: Restaurant selfless approach. So "law" only selfless, not very often or what?

* Examples of interpretations: the Buddha: "Continental people have food." Mahayana interpretation to add 4 more of the 10 formula. Four of which are: Manas, Alaya, Amala and Hridaya.

* Examples of Mantra: Mantra language is flexible, secret code can not modify the sound. But the mantra: Gate, Gate, Paragate, Parasamgate, Boddhi Svaha been changed to: Bill soles, soles Bill, she was listed soles, Three Empire is rising up, she slapped Bodhi ha.

Argument 9 : The Flower Adornment Sutra, the achievement World, Universal Worthy Bodhisattva said: "God created human Tathagata world". But Buddhism does not accept the existence of Almighty God has created the universe and all living beings. So Flower Adornment Sutra is not the Buddha's teachings, as opposed to the teachings of the Buddha.

Argument 10 The economic Originally, the Buddha was enlightened Arhat, while remaining in the world. In contrast to the theory of "Three Buddhas" of Mahayana Buddhism as Shakyamuni Buddha from His countless lifetimes and that is to import the goods. If so, the Buddha is said to have "How to practice?". You do not have to: "6 year old to reach the forest ascetic religion." Thus Theory "Three Buddhas" is unreasonable, because the Mahayana monks created.

Argument 11 The age of the Buddha, people still rustic, physical development, language so few books that meditation Buddha, Vipassana meditation, Vipassana ... simple and straightforward. In contrast to Mahayana meditation: Four of the four formless class is: the infinite, the infinite Consciousness; origin to naught; African concept, pilot / origin of the non-ideal (dtyl, 49 ). It is complex and difficult to understand for the Buddhist practice of 2600 years ago???. (Tnx78)

12 Arguments for Pali Theravada, simple prose. Using Sanskrit Mahayana Sutra, ornate polished, with many mystical and metaphorical meaning. Why books are set in the times of the Pali Sanskrit without?. That is because the ancient Buddhist Pali language teaching for so doing Theravada Pali only to record use only.

Argument 13: According to the website of the Lotus Gallery: The venerable Mahakasyapa nominated Venerable Ananda recital and public consensus. Venerable Ananda turn the following set of activities: Increase least, increase the cross, the causes and conditions, up lizards, Sa gifts, discounts and preached the Buddhist monks, nuns, she Pros Switches Upasika. The length of the file into a function called A School. The average of the set of a Central A function called. The telling of many objects, such as monks, nuns, Upasaka, Upasika be compiled into a magazine called A levels. These activities in turn told from an incremental approach to ten method aggregation into a most up A function called. The business covers a variety of issues in an organ called the Journal.

Then Venerable Mahakasyapa statement: We have completed the collective teachings. Since this is not what Buddhism is not statutory discretionary statutory, regulatory what Buddha had not been violated. We must be respectful learning what regulatory Buddha.

This is the oldest document, marked the beginning of the Pali Canon District. This Canon is the basis of Theravada Buddhism. Absolutely no Tibetan Mahayana sutras.

Argument 14 : The royal pentagon, Truc Lam Tran Nhan Tong University early momentum did not believe business: Amitabha and the Infinite Life Sutra is Buddha's teachings, through the following two sentences of all wealth "heretics ceiling Sale":

Pure is pure in heart, do not even ask the question western enlightened Di Da is calculated, hard to find to buy Ecstasy.                             

Argument 15: Sutta, the procedure 3, (four foundations of mindfulness, 241.243) is the sentence: "the very basis, any ideas from the world, of any announcement from the captain thought very convenient, very convenient of course Captain published numerous opinion , of surplus wealth, elimination facilities Nirvana thought disorder. "                       

Gas above verses such as "Heart of Prajna". It is "very interested hell afraid, very afraid to try monsters, countless terrorist property, renunciation crazy dream Nibbana." So affordable "Heart Sutra" and in particular Mahayana generally be deduced from economic primitives?. (Tnx pg. 37)                                                             

Argument 16 : Nalinaksha Dutt wrote: "The economic Saddharmapundarika, the Mahayana Sutra of flowers, use two statements of Theravada Buddhism in the Mahayana to prove the teachings of the Buddha."                  

* The first statement of the Buddha, after enlightenment is: do not hesitate to Buddhist legend teachings should know the mass or enter Nirvana? (Mahayana monk explained: Mahayana doctrine so sublime should hesitate Buddha).                                                                                                     * The second statement of the Buddha: Buddha teaching the Dharma does not have the same laws. (Mahayana monk explained: teaching Buddhism to Theravada teachings before, and design That, in turn, follows the Mahayana teachings).                             

Explanation as to prove the Mahayana Buddhist teachings are very vague, unclear, because the two questions above can be explained by many different meanings.                                                                           

Argument 17 : Dr. Suzuki writes: "The ministry is not the exact words of the Buddha's teaching, but the Mahayana monks are very proud of this fact, because it is a religious power dynamic. So what does a relationship problem is Mahayana teachings accuracy or inaccuracy of the Buddha. "                                                                                                                                                                                               Comment Comment on 18 : JR O'Neil wrote: "Mahayana Sutra of the completely different style, tone , but it is widely accepted as the new movement as "spokesman" for several reasons. First, they believe that the Buddha exists, felt through meditation and trance and dream that went through the experience. Second, they are seen as products of Prajna wisdom as well as a fundamental teachings of the Buddha. Third, the later, many Mahayana believes that the teachings of the Buddha, but was hidden in the state of mind of the species of snakes (Naga, Naga king), until man may be aware of the importance of the new visiting them, through the power of meditation time.                                                                                

19 The argument of Vasubandhu, Asanga wrote a book: "Only the French minister of education" very famous. He did for Mahayana Buddhism flourished in the 4th century and abandoned himself well to Theravada Buddhist practice Mahayana Buddhism. To justify the origin of the Mahayana, he said: "Maybe Mahayana is due to a certain position?. write it out ... and you?. must have attained bodhi as Shakyamuni Buddha Mahayana and so must be regarded as the Buddha's teachings. "                       

The words of the high-rise on the world body proved he could not confirm the Mahayana Buddhist teachings, though he grew very close to the time of the Buddha.

Conclusion:

Theravada monks are full of history, books, business documents to prove the teachings of Theravada Buddhism. Mahakasyapa Venerable Ananda and the Buddha's teaching practice honestly, no more, no less to complete the teachings and laws of the Buddhist monks. During the second set, the Dhamma (Dhamma) was split in two and rearrange the order, neat in 3 organ Pitaka (basket). These are: economic Tibet (Suttanta), organ micro-magic (Abhidhamma) and visceral law (Vinaya). It is the Pali Tripitaka. In the episode the next time, the law only organ with little change to adapt to the living conditions and social circumstances of the time. This is the chief organ of radical practice Theravada Buddhism.

Mahayana monks do not have any concrete evidence to prove the Mahayana Buddhist teachings, except those cited supernatural, mystical as stated in the argument of 6 and 18. Even the practice does not follow the teachings of the Buddha, such as vegetarian food instead of salt, recited in the vernacular instead of Sanskrit (Pali), wearing different clothes and so on. Mahayana monks deduce is so profound teachings of the Buddha. Thus Buddhist philosophy becomes richer and more flexible. Is typical: "The conclusion consistent" and "consciousness-only school." Mahayana also introduced many Bodhisattvas and Buddhas. The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas become the object of worship, which succeeded in spreading the Mahayana Buddhism. END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTMENT.WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.16/9/2013.NAM MO SAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).
