The Sight Of Death.

They are woven fabrics People come to end With the courtroom has been weaving done The life of man as well. (Word Of Gautama Buddha, Ca) People need the triangle of death, which is the meditations that he will not live long on the planet. If there is no sense of death, one would not know this particular human advantage that I get. "For seven long Thanh Van KIEP, disobedience stems", meaning that once this body takes Eve van KIEP's hard to regain. This should make life is meaningful because due to living in this life people can accomplishing significant results that you want. Analysis of death does not mean to his fear of death, which is to know the value of this precious human life, while life one can practice many important traditions. Instead of fear of death, you have to ponder that when death approached, he would take the opportunity to practice. As such meditations on death will bring more power to your practice. You need to accept that death is inevitable in this life. The Buddha has stated that "where there is no death, is where there is truth, there is no out of nowhere, not in the sea, are also not included in the mountain forest". If accept that death is part of life, when death comes close, you will be able to face it more easily. When people know a profound way right in his mind that death will come but avoid thinking about it, it is clear that no understanding and no benefits. This is also true when people accept that old age is a part of my life, don't want to have old age and avoid thinking about it. Such attitudes led to the preparation of the mind and when old age comes, everything will be very difficult. Many people were dead but still do as the younger boy. Many times when longtime friends meet, such as some parliamentarians in countries like the United States, I say "Hello old friend". My idea is that we have known each other for a long time that I did not say to what ' fairer '. But when I say so, some people have to adjust me in a powerful way: "we're not old, we as longtime friend". Actually they were old, with the bristles are sprouting up on either ear, a sign of old age, but they are uncomfortable with old age. So is the lack of thinking about your life. I often think about the life of up to one hundred years of one's life, which compared to the lifespan of the Earth of human life, then there is cover. In a brief life, people should try to live be careful not to cause suffering to himself and others. This life is very precious should not create destruction that should be devoted to those activities that build character, or at least not harm others or cause trouble, suffering for them. So the short years of the us as a tourist on this planet will mean. If a traveler to visit somewhere for a short time which caused much confusion, so is misleading. But if as a tourist, you make other people happy in this limited period of time, is so wise, and you leave to go to another place you will feel happy. If you crap, even though you yourself do not get stuck in time in this place, but you should ask yourself in the time I've done something. The life of a hundred years, the first part is the last part of childhood, old age is often like an animal, just eat and roll out to sleep. Middle extends several dozen years can live a meaningful way. The Buddha said: "half my life do people sleep. Ten years living in childhood. Twenty years of living in old age. In the years remaining, grieve, lament and disturbing, accounted for much of the time, and hundreds of minor illness taking away more time anymore. " In order to make life meaningful, just fun to accept old age and death as a part of his life. People have difficulty thinking of death but easy in greedy, trouble, and no harm to others. We see these people are considered the major characters, like the Kings, built the Castle and the building of buildings, we see clearly in their minds that they will live forever in this lifetime. Consequences of the disguise is more suffering and more trouble for many others. For those who do not believe in future lives, the meditations of reality also has benefits and science. Because the human mind, as well as all the other coast guard personnel have phenomenal change together in every minute, to ponder led to the ability to develop ourselves as well. If this life never change then we will forever bear the suffering. When we know that the universe is transformation, although we are going through a very difficult stage, we can still find solace in knowing that that condition would not as such forever. So there is nothing to despair. The good fate nor market sheep, and so when the good things come to me, I don't want to take too much. The idea that things will never change is a disastrous mistake. For example, although we accept that the next life, I'm just thinking of the present and future look less important. So we're going to miss a good opportunity when our lives are there spare time and the favorable conditions to practice the disciplines of interests. Clear understanding of impermanence is always a good thing for us. By being aware of life's impermanence, humans have a sense of discipline and had the photographer offers his own mind. Discipline or training does not mean forbidden, which means that the long-term benefits between contraction was so enraged and short-term gains, you're sacrificing short-term benefits and long-term benefits later. This is the discipline derived from the sense of cause and effect law career in newspapers. For example, to let my stomach recovers after a terrible new disease here, I avoid foods that are sour and cold drinks although this dish looks delicacies and tempting. Type of discipline has a defensive purpose. Likewise, the meditations on death brought to the discipline or self-control, self defense, rather than punishment. The human race has the potential to produce good things, but to be able to use this potential in full, should have his freedom. Authoritarianism is the obstacle course for this development. To supplement, personal freedom means that you do not rely on something from the outside and is not waiting for someone else's signal, which you yourself have the initiative. So the Buddha is often said to "get personal", meaning self rescue, not through an organization. Each individual must create a good future for yourself. Freedom and individualism requires self discipline. If these things were used for the emotional suffering that will have disastrous consequences. Freedom and self discipline are coupled to each other. Expand views According to Buddhism, the highest goal of all practitioners is privileged as the Buddha result to Savior capable beings. However, an average achievement levels can be freed from the cycle of birth, practitioners aged, disease and death, filled with suffering, a lower achievement level but still has value in that it makes the future lifetimes of practitioners more advantageous. From job change his c a lifetimes for the better, meditators can reach out to and then finally will testify as the Buddha fruit. First of all your open eye include the future life, and then, by understanding her fate, your eye expands to include additional caodaiists. After all this understanding could be extended to others, through the will graciously look forward to being out and eliminating the causes leading to suffering. This compassion is promoting you practice prayer to the Buddha. You must have the interest to the deeper aspects of life to affect the future life, most can understand fully the nature of suffering and caodaiists. Next understanding of reincarnation this distressing condition needed to complete development of compassion. The disadvantage of the non-conscious of death Knowing that he would die, that's the benefit. Why? If there is no sense of death, you will not pay any attention to the practice that only live in a meaningless, do not learn the attitudes and behaviour that would cause suffering and what kind would take to being lost. If you don't think you can die anytime soon, you will fall into the delusion usually exists that "his long dead" (I'll die later on, later on). Upon arriving at last, despite trying a accomplishments worth something, you no longer have power anymore. Many Tibetans joined the monastery as a young man to study classics, but when the time to practice their ability to actually have the deficiency. That's because they don't understand the true doctrine impermanence. If after thinking about practices, you decide to apply months into retreat or seclusion in France for several years, so you have to be aware of application on its impermanence. But if the decision soon that is not maintained by the destructive nature contemplation of impermanence, the practice of light will fade away. That's why there are people into retreat for many years but the practice had no effect on their life after that. Contemplation impermanent not only promote the practice but also to more energy for you anymore. If there is a strong sense of fate and the unexpected properties of death then you are campaigning from the inside, like a friend warned her that, "be careful, be sincere, one day has passed" (Be careful, be earnest, another day is passing). Can you export the live in monasteries. So you've got France and raiment of the monks. You will have less hectic activity. You will change the attitude to life, directed his attention to the more distant targets. Also in reverse you continue to worry about the judgment of the world as well, even beautiful, where luxury, talked nonsense, had many friends and relatives knew, including creating more enemies If someone did something that you don't like and put to conflict and dispute with each otherso, you have nothing better than previously, at home, and perhaps unpublished worse before then. Remember, if only to avoid frivolous activities for fear of fellow tu underestimate himself is also not sufficient, which must have the metabolism from the inside. This affords for Jesus monks and nuns as well as the homeless musician in his mind and apply in the practice. Perhaps you already know that ideas often survive, but his death and life, the need to have common pleasures as other people. Do want to enjoy in the present life, though few have lasting meaning, you are ready to use the lack of ethics in order to get what she wants, as lenders take interest, take advantage of litigation, friends ... to have more of those in need benefit packages for life. Because you selected the lifestyle so money becomes more attractive as moral lessons, and even if you want to practice, no more attention to it. If a page of books fell to the ground, you may hesitate to collect it up, what if a sheet of silver falls down the road, the incident left another go. If you have people who have devoted their lives to the profound goals, you may think well about the dedication that, but okay. Also if you see a person dressed in chic, showcase the wealth, you'll probably start craving mind, you wish he would also be the same, and ultimately you will do anything to achieve your purpose take part to it. Once the flow of worldly life, vanity, emotional afflictions greed, anger, passion, jealousy, arrogance will increase, and put the path you create more bad karma . The emotions of this affliction only cause trouble, making for themselves and those around them into a State of discomfort. Although you may know little about the practice, but you still accumulate more wealth and bringing to more people, ended up have to say you are practicing the frivolous stories of this world, who initiated the craving for those you love, and anger toward people you don't likeand you are looking to pursue the emotional brain pain. When it came to this spot, though heard about the French tu primary leg, you'll also hesitated and missed. Caodaiists smoothly from infinity only I could today, you've used emotional negativity, but now you have more frivolous French. So the condition becomes worse, make you out of touch with what is really more beneficial. Embroiled by the wish, you'll never find satisfaction. You can't make someone else happy, and be sure not to make yourself happy. When becoming selfless than with "his" shall any person interfering also immediately became the target of your anger. Whether you see the importance of their close friends and relatives, but they can't help you at birth and at her death. You were born alone and then I'm going to leave it alone. If, on your death, a person you can come with the latch holding onto valuable friends, but can't have it. When you are reborn in a completely unfamiliar situation, if those of you in before can help something, then is also a valuable, but this event could not happen. So that in the period between birth and dying, stretched tens of years, the friends that is "his", "her" brothers and sisters. The player does not place this would not lead to any benefit, but only took part in the si field only. When the craving for those who fancy themselves and also the anger with people I hate. When born was born, you don't know who anyone. Though all we all want happiness and do not want suffering, but you still like some people and think "they are his friends" and hate some people "who are his enemies". You add marks and nicknames for them and then run the mind craving or anger. So then what's valuable? No value at all. The problem here is that you spend too much capacity for the frivolous stories of this life. The great spiritual value was left in front of the little things like that. If you do not practice, and when death you are surrounded with friends and people who have worked with you, instead of having someone to remind you to cultivate, moral, obviously you yourself have brought trouble to himself. The mistake is that you don't have a sense of impermanence. Benefits of the feeling of impermanence However, if you have to wait until the last moment that the keenly new dies, and you get a real way his condition right now, you will not be governed by the judgment. You will not careless with the long term important goals. Should you decide in the first place you'd perished, and find out what real value. If the mind is life goes by so fast, you'll cherish your time and will do what it's worth. With strong sense of inevitable death will come to you, you will find yourself needing to work, trip turns mind, and don't waste time with the pleasure from eating to crap about war, love romance and about other people's personal life. All beings all want her happy and do not want suffering. We use many different techniques to release the great distress as well as small. Man we know practice these practices early in his life to avoid misery later. In life, people with tu tu and those who don't are trying to ease some of the suffering and the suffering of other disarmament, has also used the little pain as means of overcoming suffering and achieve a certain happiness. Everyone is trying to eliminate the pain on the outside, but has a different method to release pain at levels more deeply, to minimize or eradicate suffering in the future life, and Moreover, the release of all forms of suffering to yourself as well as for sentient beings. This method is called cultivate. These methods include the attitude. So, basically, the practice that is fine tuning his mind. In Sanskrit, cultivate are call "Dharma", meaning "the hold". This means that due to the bad attitude adjustment, you get rid of a level of suffering and so are "held back" from that suffering. The cultivate has the power to protect himself and others from falling into mortal misery. From the first thing out of his condition of samsara and sought to hold themselves back from suffering, you convey the presence of his enlightenment to others and start of compassion, i.e. voluntary help they escape the agony. Though just a ghost, you have good reason to choose the path of various other spiritual help, but also one other thing, which is due to consider the interests of other people, you will feel happier. Have compassion, you will remove one's own suffering and increased inner strength. Let me tell you about one small example, I was recently in Bodh (Bodhgaya), I suffer from chronic intestinal infections. On the way to the hospital I felt very sore, and pouring sweat. Our vehicles go through the mountain area bearded vulture (i.e. Thứu Ling Shan) and very poor villagers in the same area. In General, Bihar is a poor state, but the region's poorest. I don't see a child going to school. There is only poverty and disease. I remembered a boy suffering from polio, wear metal grip bars rusted in two legs and two hands against the crutches. It is clear that no one looks at the baby. I am very touched. One place to another, I saw an old man in a tea shop across the street, wearing only a soiled, falls to the ground, and is always there and not have anyone help got up. Then I was taken to the hospital, I think rave about what she had just seen, think that sadly when here I did care more miserable people out there, then no one is. I thought of that and forget about her pain. Though sweat is pouring out, I am only thinking of others. So although my body was in greater pain (there is a hole in the bowel) and I can't sleep, my mind has no fear. If I was into his illness, only makes the situation worse than that now. Here's an example from my own small experience about compassionate attitude helpful benefits both ourselves, to forget about the pain your body, reduce fear, although others do not get the direct benefits. Compassion help us have more power, and with the courage, we will more gentle static security . When the eye wide open of us including the suffering of countless beings, then the suffering of myself seem too small.
