Buddhist ethics and human happiness Morning This is an important issue, Buddhist ethical issues, because we can say all the teachings of the Buddha are directly or indirectly related to the problem our moral and ethical need to define how Buddhism primarily for use in accordance with the teachings of His birth, then to apply that ethic to the human world of ours, especially the modern man of us. When he declared: "Bhikkhus, this old and I just say to the suffering and the cessation of suffering" (Central I, 140), a statement confirming his teaching known to man and the suffering 45 year end suffering during his sermons. We are known in the business Zhuan Falun, texts his first sermon for the past 5 and lived with him, he declared: "This is suffering, this is the format that must be known, this is suffering has been said; here is the file format, this is the file format should be eradicated; here is suffering killing, it is hard realization must kill, kill This is suffering, this is a hard kill was realized; this is the way to kill pain, this is the way to kill need to practice hard, this is the way to kill has been practicing hard. " Not only that, he also advises his monastic disciples: "Bhikkhus, take a trip, because the populations being happy, because happiness of living populations, because great compassion for life, for the benefit, happiness, because happiness of gods and men "(corresponding to I, 128). The above statement of the Buddha stated his ambition is eager sufferings of birth, cessation of suffering priority, bringing joy to all beings. And so we can define, Buddhist ethics is a way of life to bring happiness and peace to all beings, especially our species. I especially emphasize this is a lifestyle, not a moral teachings of conduct need to mechanically passive. And life was to be brought to practice, perform, is not to worship, pray. Have done, the new practice to be happy, peaceful, practical and right now in this life (Sanditthiko akaliko), can see how the (ehipassiko), is not a distant realm of thought paradise object. A number following the teachings of the Buddha as clearly demonstrated his teaching is geared to end suffering and bring pleasure for living beings: "This achievement 5, O bhikkhus, bhikkhus live right in the present pain suffering with brain injury, the brain benefits, with brain temperature, after the dissolution of the body corporate networks are expected beast. What is 5? Here is the Bhikkhu, Bhikkhu no confidence, no shame hearts, can not feel fear, mental laziness and evil. Achievement 5 This, O bhikkhus, even in the current bhikkhus live peacefully, no brain damage, no superiority, no brain temperature; and after the public network, the world is waiting to heal. What is 5? Bhikkhus. Bhikkhu faith, heart ashamed, frightened heart, ardent, diligent, wise ... "(Anguttara I, 11). A further teaching, further underline: "This achievement 5, O bhikkhus, Bhikkhu for his happiness, and bring happiness to people. What is 5? Here is the Bhikkhu, Bhikkhu himself fully virtue and encourages others to complete virtue. Themselves fully meditation and encourage others to complete meditation. Himself full intellectual and encourage others full of wisdom. Fully freed himself and encouraging others to complete liberation. Freed himself full knowledge and encourage others to fully liberate knowledge. This full 5, the monks, monks bring happiness to ourselves and to bring happiness to people "(Increased Spending II, 20). If Buddhist ethics is a way of life brings happiness, as well as a lifestyle that promote human life, bringing people into a supreme position, identify people likely to get rid of all suffering brain, ending rebirth. His Word is both a dynamic image of a person based on human strength, go find yourself directing, ascetic himself, herself meditating until attained, not by a spirit force, dependence not a natural force. When to seek from him Alarakalama, have naught origin Jhana, he thought: "Not only Alarakalama have faith, I have faith. Not only have diligently Alarakalama, I also diligently. Not only can Alarakalama concept, I also thought. Not only Alarakalama have to, I have to. Not only can Alarakalama wisdom, I also have knowledge ". With this in mind, and with the ability to self-reliance, his perseverance and practice evidence naught origin as results showed Alarakalama. As he himself experienced in ourselves that austerity does not lead to enlightenment, he immediately abandoned asceticism, meditation practice, meditation is evidence, meditation Monday, Tuesday meditation, meditation Wednesday, evidence was sufficient network smart, intelligent third eye, make intelligent contraband, freed from the taints, the supreme Buddha ranks. Thus his life from when directed to reach enlightenment, specifically prove that, with human beings, with human willpower effort, the concept of force, of power and human wisdom, and not by relying the one he has achieved the ultimate supreme dignity, he proved that, in the not too painful hell realms, not so happy in the realm of the gods, only with human beings, the knowledge the pain hard to overcome suffering, insight is freed from natural touch to touch, attain liberation director of communications for the sensory level. Thus Buddhist ethics is a lifestyle promoting human position and prove that humans are capable of achieving the ultimate liberation if people have the will and efforts of man, if human growth the concept of force, torque and power of human meditation, if people develop the intellectual capacity, human liberation forces. Step step further, Buddhist ethics is a way of life in clean, pure and healthy, because only a pure life that guarantees a happy life. In the Example cloth (Central I, No. 7), confirming a Buddha defilements staining the fabric will be dyed a color not nice. Also, waiting for a heart evil realms defilements. In contrast, a pure cloth, clean staining would be a good dye. Also, waiting for a good realm pure heart. So happy to only a pure heart, not with a mind to defilements. Then he told 16 defilements mind, in her own anger and ignorance is necessary to cleanse and rid, thanks estate LONGJING credit for Trinity Treasure (Jewels), because the evidence is that credit life and credit measures Life. "From here, joyful birth-related measures; from joyful, rapture arises. From the wedding itself was calm. Body contempt, sense pleasures. With pleasures, the mind is meditation. " (Central I, 37A-37B). Wanted to be rid of meditation 5 hindrances to be considered as defilements of the mind and replace it with 5 Games from goodwill, joy, optimism and the most attention. Want proof arahatship, to the exception of three or contraband: illegal sex, illegal property, ignorance; necessary to remove the ten fetters: friendly prejudice, doubt, hate sex, greed, love color, formless love, romance, exchange and celebrate ignorance. It must be free except the 7 options: taking custom domain, custom golf free, free is customizable, depending complimentary amenities, custom chronic Free, Free useful participate custom, free custom ignorance; and hindrances, fetters, defilements, free option is considered as defilements of the mind. And such a pure heart is waiting for happiness, peace; mind waiting a defilements are suffering, sorrow. Speaking of defilements refers to evil, comes to pure goodness that is saying, as so many of the Buddha's teachings on this issue. We all remember the saying: Do not do anything evil, achievement of good behavior, keeping in mind the cleanliness, the word of the Buddhas. - (Dhammapada 183) evil fate awaited and good grades are clearly distinguishable Some fetuses born, born wicked hell, good people to heaven, Nirvana No Omission - (Dhammapada 126) Or questions: Evil Done well should not suffer consequences. Should surely do good deeds, Done unrepentant. - (Dhammapada 319) The difference between evil and good grades are distinguished: The good oil away, as clear as mountain snow. Oil near wicked darting black night. - (Dhammapada 309) When requested wanderer Vacchagota Brief meditation instructor and immoral law, Bhagavan clearly analyzed as follows: "Greed is evil, participation is very friendly. Golf is immoral, golf is very good. Si is evil, and good boxers. Thus, three methods are immoral, three methods are improved. Killing is evil, renounce killing is good, not for the Taking of evil, not to abandon the take is good. In the sexual misconduct is evil, to give up the sexual misconduct of the charity. Lying is immoral, quit lying is good. Speaking two blades is evil, to give up two blades is good talk. Speaking evil is evil import, export abandon evil talk is good. Say vanity is immoral, frivolous abandon the good word. Avarice is evil, renounce avarice is good. Golf is evil, to give up golf is improving. Evil is wrong, wrong is good to abandon. So this Vacchagota, ten law is immoral, the ten is good. " (Central II, 135 new sets). In the Song Tam, I No. 19 Central Buddha divide the range into two types: PE range, golf range, two sheets of unwholesome this range because the range with self harm, lead to harm people, leading to harmful both anti-intellectual, to be part of afflictions, does not lead to nirvana. Ly Duc Tam, numerous golf range, any two sheets of kindness, because this level does not lead to self-harm, not bringing harm to people, no harm taken to both the intellectual growth, not to be part of afflictions, toward nirvana. Why does this distinction? Buddha stated: "We see the harm, the inferior, the defiled by the evil way, and that the renunciation, the benefits, the purity of the legal charity". (Central I, 116). In this place we understand why the Buddha advised us: 'Do not you close with evil, sub-human who the kidneys; Keep your body healthy, friendly Be friendly staff levels. - (Dhammapada 78) Or questions: Who used the hallway, Making evil blur now, this life will shine, like the moon freed cloud. - (Dhammapada 173) Buddha used a beautiful image to describe the difference between the level of improvement measures and measures of the wicked: "It is far, far away, the distance between earth and sky. It is far, far away, the distance between the coast to coast across this. It is far, far away, the distance space sunrise and sunset spot. But far, far more than the legal level is between good and evil of the law. "Buddhist ethics is a lifestyle coupled with optimism, not coupled with suffering, promote a personal experience of Buddha is not suffering brings release. Prince Bodhi number 85 in the Central Business II expressed his feelings: "Us is attained not by touch, touch is so hard to attain. (Central II, 403). This is also the view of the event from Ni, while the ascetic position for incineration of past misdeeds. The concept is different from the Buddha when he was 6 years experienced his ascetic. And any teaching or practice and bring his peace and happiness to the practice. First, he compares the two types of communication: Lac Buddha called as distributed communication, ie communication torpor, avaricious optimistic, respectful communication, cultural identity optimistic (Increase Spending II, 334-335), the Buddha advised His disciples the Holy shunned. He highlighted touch the saint's renunciation of peanuts, peanut peaceful, calm optimism, enlightenment optimism, optimistic nirvana. He advised his disciples often hear legal ways to enjoy peanut, daily Zen meditation to enjoy communication, often hold 5 men, 8 Precepts practice to enjoy pure optimism, calming touch. He called the practice of meditation is now located residence. Meditation brings joy born by sexual isolation, meditation Monday brought by the birth of blissful, meditative Tuesday giving residents stereotyped discharge, discharge fourth meditation brings pure thoughts. Thus the meditator makes merry fullness due to birth, there is no place on the body is not so blissful was instilled. A peaceful life so highly, but somehow, someone misunderstands Buddhism is pessimistic, while the right of Buddhists are the most optimistic life, always absorbed in Dhamma Meditation optimism, optimistic and calm renunciation of touch. One feature of Buddhist ethics is to promote a lifestyle deliverance binding, the binding is beginning to cultivate 5 ie sexual beauty, voice or, aroma, taste, mellow contact. Buddha often pointed out the dangers of sex: "Fear, O bhikkhus, is synonymous with sex. Disease, the monks, is synonymous with the Department of Education ... hump ... involved ... mud sticks, this, monks, is synonymous with sex. And this, monks, why fear is synonymous with sex? This, monks, captivated by lust, bound by desire, even in the present can not escape the fear, the next life can not escape fear. So fear is synonymous with sex. (Increase Spending II, 309). Suffering in State Economic Aggregates, Central 14, Mahanama asked him why but still know greed, hatred and delusion are defilements of the mind, but of greed, hatred and delusion, occasionally arise, the Buddha replied: "This Mahanama, because in that way you should not get rid of you live in the family and enjoy rough sex ". The Buddha explained further: "Behold Mahanama, when the disciples of St. cleverly shows such as true with intelligence chief:" The sex, less sweet, more suffering, more cerebral; the danger here a lot more. " And the proof is this blissful isolation by sex, birth ly the bad ones, or a more noble Dhamma, so he was not the dominant sex. "(TrungBo I, 92-93). Here we see little wisdom coupled with meditation alone is capable of liberating human indulgence, and we understand why the Buddha used the term freedom of mind, liberating insight to describe a the enlightenment, because the mind is liberated liberation through meditation and mental liberation is liberation by wisdom. Two freed this new community together is a comprehensive liberation. Another highlight of Buddhist ethics is the role of the intellectual in all disciplines leads to liberation and enlightenment. Understandably so because the new intellectual abilities rid of the evil of bad ones, the cankers, the fetters, the free option etc. ... and so, in all the Buddha's teachings are prominent role of intellectual. In three ways of learning, concentration and wisdom, intellectual knowledge the role of suffering, pain episodes, pain killing, the way to kill pain, wisdom or knowledge of illegal, counterfeit or set the start, the contraband or cessation way led to illegal or annihilated. Through such insight being so boring, so boring so dispassion, detachment due to cessation included, brought to mind liberated and liberating insight. Intellect can help distinguish between friendly approach, where the evil way, where is the black law, where the law of white, where the purity law, where the legal defilements, what is dharma, what is immoral . Because of this distinction, we can abandon the evil legal, legal accomplishments of healing. It is through wisdom, our knowledge the sweetness, the danger, the occurrence of sexual isolation. Determine the Buddha: "O Bhikkhus, the subjects Sa, Brahmin does not really knowledge the sweet taste of sweetness such as education, the danger is so dangerous, the glass is made of glass as such, these people would like the real insight of their education, they can put someone else in a similar position, that is as true insight of education, such events have happened. " (Central I, 87C). In the 37 legal assistant, always practice brainer. In the four foundations of mindfulness, the law enforcement agency for over five hindrances, aggregates 5, 8 paternal origin; 5 units, 5 forces, has knowledge base, intellectual force, in 7 of enlightenment, enlightenment is responsible way; 8 right path, there is right knowledge, right thought of the intellectual. Impact of wisdom in the process of liberation rich and diverse that there are many different words to name the location. As official said through the prophet, said tri won through meditation, through the insight to know wisdom, willow is tri understanding of a liberated. Thus in the process of intellectual enlightenment truth is the fundamental element to enlightenment and liberation. Another feature of Buddhist ethics is a lifestyle in harmony with nature and make healthy living environment just beautiful. We observe that the Buddha was born outdoors, under a tree, enlightenment outdoors, under a tree, the first sermon in the outdoors, deer in the garden, and outdoors also passed under the I live life tree. His life is very close to nature, close to the mountains, gardens and foliage. Life of the ordained His disciples also usually lives in forests, urban remote place, and the remaining caves like Ajanta, Ellora, Kanheri are located deep in the deep mountains, determined practice moral life is always in harmony with nature, with mountains and forests. In Vietnam we, Yen Tu Pagoda, the pagoda was built on rocky cliff or hidden deep in the jungle. Most of the Vietnamese temples have gardens, flower gardens, there is an oasis with lakes, the fish swim by. These images demonstrate that the lives of the Buddhist monastic mounted in a clean natural environment, in harmony with the surrounding landscape, still lifes harmony with the mind, meditation moon and stars shine bright center. Buddhist Ethics is a lifestyle in harmony with nature, as well as a lifestyle in harmony with humans. So do not be astonished, to see the view Dandapani asked him how and what to teach, the Buddha answered: "According to my teachings in the world with gods, Brahma and evil, Sa subjects with them, Brahmins, gods, and men, can not argue with anyone in my life. "(Central III, 109-109A). A further statement speaks not dispute the attitude of the Buddha. "Bhikkhus, I have no disputes with death, life is only a dispute with me. This cacu bhikkhus, who said no legal dispute with someone in life "(corresponding to III, 165) last characteristic of Buddhist ethics is a selfless life, a profound philosophy of magic, just help human autonomy, escape the domination of the human body and the world, just beyond the pain, sorrow, because impermanence of the self and the world cause, just as the path to liberation Center and liberating insight. First of all, the Buddha gave 6 is the origin of man as has been shown in Du Xa (22, Central), or see form, feeling, perception, consciousness is mine, that I, my self , and see the self and the world after death is permanent will usually survive forever. First Buddha distinguish between ordinary people and hear little saint disciples heard, the ordinary person is clinging 6 this country, even saints disciples heard many times not. Then the Buddha said to the absurdity of ego as discussed in Business Central 148 Six Six III: "If the eye is the self, so unreasonable. The delivery and removal of the eye has been found to have lead to the conclusion "self arising and passing away" at my place. Therefore, if anyone says that the eye self, so not fair "(Central III, 474-475). The same goes for other legal, economic "Discourse on" say more, see 5 aggregates are self not acceptable because of our body, we do not have power want my body to be like that we want . Therefore, can not see five aggregates is self. Then he said to the danger of suffering caused by the ego: "Who thought arises, what is definitely my, this certainly is not mine, what can definitely be mine, I certainly did not get what. Thinking like that, it's melancholy wail, weep, beat his chest, went into a coma "(Central I, 136A). If it does not think so, while it did not melancholy wail. Those who believe that after death, we will usually constant, permanent, often forever, and when he heard the Buddha or Buddha's disciples teaching, promotion except all the solutions, only pure acts, from give birth any medicine, except the desire, the time he sorrow, lamentation, weeping, beating his chest, went into a coma, because I thought he would be annihilation, can not exist. So are all suffering arises due to the observance of the five aggregates is I, I, my self. For 5 people aware of aggregates is selflessness, Buddha put a number of questions: "Lust is permanent or impermanent? What is impermanent, suffering or lost? What is impermanent is suffering under uncertainty havoc if they have reasonable rational view: "Lust is mine, is mine, is my self?". The answer of course is excellent confirming impermanent, as suffering, as selfless, as well as the other aggregates. Then he came to the conclusion, encouraging the monks should observe: "Bhikkhus, whatever phenomena sensation ... any ... any idea ... any ... any way out past, future, present in, internal or external, gross or subtle, inferior or win, far or near all of it: this is not mine, not me, not my self "(Central I, 138A). Thanks to such customary, disciple of St. boring for excellence ... for life ... for thought ... for ... for official action. Because so boring dispassion, detachment due to be freed. In the place known liberation freed. He said: "The birth took advantage, has the virtue, in so doing did not come back this state anymore (Central I, 139). So thanks to the selfless consistent evidence that the achievement practitioner. And saw fruition, the suffering will be completely destroyed. Thus Buddhist ethics is a way of life brings happiness to people, uphold human values, a way of life in pure clean, healthy, remove the evil legal, legal accomplishments of charity, a coupled with optimistic lifestyle, not coupled with pain, bondage and liberation, the sexual, the chief nursing education, an intellectual life in that pivotal role, living in harmony with nature, with humans, a selfless life. Here we clearly analyzed, in 45 years of his sermons, he never left the sufferings of birth objectives, bring happiness to everyone, every species. And the object of his sermon covers all living beings, from gods to men, from flowers and trees to the tiny creatures, from the prince to the royal Brahmin, discarded relics, things have etc ... In this place, in this lecture, we selected human as the key object. The Buddha was enlightened human beings, we are not enlightened man. In human subjects, we can distinguish three categories of people. Ranks of people in general have not been listening to the Dhamma, is not Buddhist. The second term is the home congregation, including laymen, laywomen; third class is part of the congregation, including monks, nuns. First of all, for the class who have not heard the Dhamma, not Buddhists, not the monastic disciples and in part, the Buddha's teachings also for purposes not bring happiness to people this. In the Dighajanu (Anguttara III, 119, a new set), Dighajanu asked, for homeowners and wife, have children, enjoy the pleasures of life, contained money, need to practice what the law could bring Back in the present peace, and happiness in the future. Buddha replied 4 measures taken to happiness in the present, ie, full resourcefulness, full protection, make friends with friendly, air-conditioned life balance. Fully resourcefulness is skilful in his profession, just enough to do, just enough to show other people do. the moral teachings of the Blessed One will always lead to happiness for practice. Buddha wanted his disciples at his home on the higher way of practice, evidence such as saving achievements, Japanese. He taught in business Fear and Hatred, Anguttara III, page 468: "When the Saints make disciples calm fears hatred 5 4 project accomplishments and expenditures for the store, left to enter the holy of wisdom, if he wants to be able to reply to myself that: I've cessation hell, porcelain, hungry demons. I have to take the results section data, beast of deprivation, has proven project saving, no sink, decided to make the ultimate enlightenment. " How to calm fears hatred is 5 away from killing, taking what is not given, in the sexual misconduct, lying and passionate cooking wine yeast. 4 Achievement Project is part of saving costs achievements estate net credit to the Buddha, for France, for the Increase for sex. Ingenious enter the holy incarnation of wisdom means that smart and charming recipe origination killing of 12 measures, starting from ignorance to old death, sorrow suffering mental afflictions. So this is a moral lifestyle coupled with wisdom, provide results, liberation from suffering. As for the congregation ordained, that the monks, nuns, the Buddha placed in the ultimate position of dignity, liberated the suffering of samsara, and thus freed method for the assembly of monastic disciples His emphasis celibate life, cessation of craving, competition, ownership, cessation of birth, aging, death, sorrow suffering mental afflictions. About Buddha taught the practice is spreading knowledge for lifestyle home products. About a centered life, have you, personally, speech act, the act, pure life, upholding the apartment, temperance in eating, alert attention, mindfulness and awareness. Thus, the world is a clean lifestyle, upholding the apartment, not being the dominant sex nourish, eat in moderation, keep a majestic 4, mindfulness and awareness, the mind is so excited, joyful calm, peace and from peace leads to meditation. It is here that, yogi cessation of greed, sloth torpor, exchange currency and comfort and goodwill achievements 5: reach, Quartet, joy, optimism, most attention. Thanks to purify the mind from hindrances, certified yogi is the realm of meditation, at the age of sexual bliss glass by birth, due to birth, residence stereotyped discharge, discharge of pure thoughts, the center of the province, net pure, pure, not contaminated, not negativity, yogi sufficient network to radial position, location knowledge about the past; third eye position, location and future understanding of illegally take place, current location likely taints cessation, enlightenment, attained liberation center, liberating insight. So practice your lifestyle syndrome bhikkhus, nuns, starting from academia, which is living with relatives act, speech act, the act, pure life. With a pure moral life, the yogi in mind the direction of the object selected, evidence meditation, promote intellectual to become enlightened. Economic Foundations of Mindfulness, Central I, page 56 introduces a method for monastic congregation, is considered "the only way to bring pure beings, beyond sorrow, overcome pain and grief, achievements chief justice, enlightenment Nirvana ". 4 Thus, mindfulness is a way of life is being helped clean purity, from the defilements .. With such a lifestyle, yogi beyond the sorrow, suffering termination benefits, ie live peacefully happy being in the Dhamma. With the static blissful lifestyle, yogi intellectual development, the chief insight of origination, the legal fate of the killing, and finally realized Nibbana. A further method for the renunciation of the practice should spend 5 crystals, (Central II, page 95), which is a moral lifestyle includes detailed sections 5, helps monastic disciples witness is capable of St. results: "Here monks have faith, believe in the enlightenment of the Tathagata. He fewer sick little brain, with the digestion is regulated, not too cold, not too hot, with average effort. He no fraud, no cunning, behave themselves as masters of truth, for you or for co-location virtue. He lived ardent effort, abandon the unwholesome legal, legal accomplishments of friendly, domesticated strong position, not abandon the bad ones. He has wisdom, the insight of the legal kill, holy achievements can enter, leading to cessation of suffering right feet. "Ethical lifestyle here started with a belief right feet, followed by a healthy health, followed lasu respect the truth, something to be diligent in removing the evil law, the dhamma achievement, and ultimately wisdom, insight the arising and passing of the law, may enter with primary knowledge to make an end to suffering. Here the immediate cessation of all suffering is happiness was complete.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTMENT.WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=THE EIGHTFOLD PATH.NAM MO SAKYA MUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.26/6/2014.
