HAPPY LIFE COLLECTIVE letting


Thich Minh Dung




An optimistic and happy is the dream of human life that everyone wishes to achieve. The social housing, politics, religion ... all their efforts for purposes not bring peace and happiness to life. Or the cross-border or absorbed in the university or to do two or three of you work in a week is not unexpected on.


Everyone's trying to do their part and get the money list. Because the two events are necessary in a life with peace and happiness. The topping material plays a very important part for a stable life. To which, you feel less anxious and more fearful. Therefore, you need to be patient education, rise in life and work effort. All the negative thoughts and hated life are more likely to take you to the destruction of life and not been much help you have a soul at peace and happy.


You are educated and hard working. Your life economically okay, but you often find yourself with much suffering and sorrow. Brushing material, qualifications, knowledge and parts list has helped you so much happiness, but there are many other things you lack attention has created many troubles for you. As a noble house, you decorate many beautiful paintings and other amenities but at the same time to bring you into more garbage and thorny. The main stem has thorns make you lose a lot of elegant and noble of the house. If you learn and be more cautious to prevent the depression may occur at any time you like garbage around there then indeed you are the happiest in this world.


Have you ever thought to yourself the things that it destroyed the peace and happiness that you are not cultivate? In addition to being hard on you, and how you can build a life with more peace and happiness? These are two very important questions to help you make a life of peace and meaning.


There are many reasons from the outside and inside the heart, made you suffer no less. For example, you have to live with someone you dislike. You should hear the things you really do not want to hear. You are a bitter slander. You angry one long day in the heart. You harrowed, repent a mistake. You are selfish and indifferent to suffering of others ... All of these things as high flames burning fire in your heart. So how can you get peace and happiness, even if you have excess material life. These things are no different from cancer microbes are destroyed by your red blood cells. You must find the cause of depression in a permanent, you can convert the suffering. Since then, you find out which method of treatment for it. You really want peace and happiness in life, practice letting go is a lot of tips to help you have fun for yourself and those around you.


Well let go of what? Letting go is letting go. You let go of all the troubles from the outside and the inside of your mind. You let go of selfish and petty. You leave it hanging like hanging up a shirt torn and filthy long day. All they are are sticking to the smell you. You must contemplate them wisely and candidly determine that depression is a toxic gas is taken to cover you, you definitely have to let go. Let go of the peace to. Note that the suffering and happiness are two sides of a right and left hands. We always take the form inversely proportional to each other. When you have more peace, the less pain occurs and vice versa. As a glass of water, if you give more green, white lost. How well you can practice letting go of everyday life.


1. Practice letting go with yourself first: We are our own shelter. Buddha often advised us so. You must return to contemplation and practice where your own people. You will have to give you many troubles. You have to practice letting go of the suffering in the heart caused by you. Well you practice letting go means you are practicing compassion-loving behavior. You have a clear sense of yourself that is a life like many other lives. Practice love from you. Practice love to let go, in that the problems that you often caused as follows:


a. The lingering regret: In daily life, you often do things bothered to those around unintentionally or intentionally. But then you feel extremely regretful. Identify own mistakes first is the gateway to all holiness of life. I do not know how wrong it may be amended. Repent of your actions can only happen when you actually receive his errors earnest. But after repentance is complete, you need to let go of the constant nagging notion in that time. So, if you keep holding on, the regret was not bringing you a little peace at all. As a shirt washed clean, you do not accidentally make it to torment the unfortunate crumpled.


Note that letting persistent psychological regret not mean complicity with everything easy. You have to be careful to observe the operation of your mentality in this direction. Once the idea for an easy mistake to pass, you do not really have many regrets. Was not much they do have regrets letting go. This is a relaxed and you start a new overlap karma karma old. Like, making others suffer a word missing from your mind. You know it's wrong and you are sure that superficially easy, only to forget about sex. Letting go of nagging regret here is not in the listening. Because of that, you may not have anything nagging slightest bit of your mistakes. Two hours is just letting go comes with our sincere and earnestly repent you.


One night very late, after completing all work to books or other things, you sit quietly on the bed or the room where the stately posture, if the picture is good Buddha. World at this very quiet and you just rest and Buddha only. You presented the Buddha on your mistake and it gives you so much regret and pain in my heart. You sincerely repent. You eagerly read mantra Ma Ni Di Bat Red or any idea what the Buddha's name to pray for Buddha's power to eliminate the sins of your past. If you truly repent, then you will tear or a feeling that permeates a healthy run throughout your body. You bow my head and also the Buddha while he fiercely rid you regret having psychological hold in your heart over time. The peace and happiness to you.


b. Letting go of selfishness: The selfish soul will make you poor and isolated from the world around them. Share the suffering of those around you will make life more fun and more widely respected. It is hard to hate someone that you once you were very sympathetic to them. As in school, you feel more comfortable when a teacher is your understanding of Asia and the language you are not American English. You learn your open hearts. Live for others and for others means living for yourself. Shakyamuni as loving people, he went to the preacher from rural town in the sun through the sky and fifty years of Indian origin. Although Gandhi was killed, but he sure was happy in his career sacrifices for his country. Americans are increasingly involved in social work and charity. Employment had made ​​their lives more meaningful. In 1993, only for one night only, but donations help organizations of disabled children in the United States has raised more than five hundred million dollars. Want to let go of selfishness, you need to learn to live lives of sacrifice and love.


c. Let go of anger: Anger is something that human beings full of both. Both psychologists and sociologists Mead psychoanalysis Freud thought that the anger of man is by learning from the circumstances surrounding the development. That much is not entirely true. Since a baby born a few days, we still see it with signs and anger. The anger that many lives have followed many lives, not new today. Anger has collapsed to the relationship between nations, organizations, friends, family and even more in love. You have your hot anger cause more hatred and more surely will suffer. The anger of former President Bush before the relatives of soldiers missing in Vietnam has reduced a lot of public sympathy for his America. Anger arises, you can hardly contain the words gentle and violence often occurs.


Every time you get angry you know about repeating the phrase "I'm angry," and you took a deep breath before exhaling. And that's one way you practice letting go of anger in the heat of the moment. You can still practice it in the time do not be angry. As the dinner meal is unsatisfactory, you ask your heart is not so much frustration. When your lover late Friday afternoon last week, while waiting, your files do not ask me more angry. Each repetition so is your ability to help you observe and control his mind. It will create a capacity to weaken the outbreak of anger when you get a job. The ability to shake off the anger does not bring happiness and a great noble in your life so much.


d. Let go of pride: The arrogant will make people hate you and shun you. It does not help a little happiness in life and your happiness. Decarte sure that, in a meeting with intellectuals, many different components and each spoke of each type, does not mean that this person over the other but rather each user a different sense. In society, each person has a particular responsibility to contribute to the survival of its glory. Unique idea is a very naive thought and foolish. "I met anyone more than they do in this or the other" is a phrase full of celebrity loving western that you need to meditate. A monk can hardly excelled in politics and politicians back where possible to understanding the inner life and a philosophy of religion. Who better than anyone. The arrogance comes from the contempt of others. Life is short, our knowledge is very limited, talent is only limited to a certain area only. We are ignorant of things. So pride is worth to inflicting pain to yourself and those around us.


2. Let go of grief from other people brings: On the other are the things you learn to let go of insecurity caused by you. Not only that, you also need to let go of the grief from other people give you. If you have set yourself to forgive then you can easily forgive others. This is not difficult to start over. The other gives you grief, if you're wise, you do not take it long and it will go over very quick. Conversely, insecure and depressed more and more increasing. A homeless wandering the streets suddenly taunted you on a Saturday morning in shopping. You hate him. You seek revenge. If you do not mind the words of a man miserable as mites, you will feel more relaxed. In family life, between his parents, brothers and sisters, you often encounter many conflicts trouble. You just keep forever in the heart of every word, every gesture, every action that others offend you. My little friend that you want to carry too many rocks, such as depression, how you can survive. Furthermore, you see around you all the enemy alone, although they are very loved you. That made ​​a complete destruction of the most sacred and beautiful in your life. Buddha advised you, all others bring sorrow to you, as they bring you a gift, if you do not receive the gift was surely about them. Please return any insecurity for those who have brought you. Your heart will be as clear and blue sky dreaming.


In short, you're yearning to get a real life peaceful and happy. You are working hard at school and at work. You are set to forgive yourself. You are open to share life with those around you. You let go of things not to please other people give you. You are truly peaceful and happy.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY BACH LIEN HOA.NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).
DO THE PARENT






Buddhist scriptures often speak of the Buddha's compassion and the Bodhisattva of compassion for beings like parents to their children. In short, rewards beings as parents and children. We are injured as the Buddha, and want to learn the way of his, should be called the Buddha (Buddhist).


Son of the Buddha, to be like Buddha, to move from gender, the, wisdom, breaking the ego, affordable, except for distress termination, leave all the crazy dream, reaching a state of tranquility, love kills, very Join ... The road from the position a child towards ordinary place of the father of high intellectual merit thick, is far from the path length, inconceivable, as it may short narrowly that can also go through the existence of infinite time. Unable Tripitaka but three goals exaggerate, let alone a couple of lines of real life language.


But go back to the issue of Buddhist compassion for all beings, or compassion of parents towards their children. This is a living example, specifically, for those who had a parent, and of course very vague wiggle butt for those who have never experienced nurturing and parenting. And the men, are the feet of monks ordained, life qualities. Also include some other special cases are the secular case can not have children, or not having children, or for any reason, not to have children. No experience is if you love children and want to start to spread the compassion with other people or other beings equally, unconditionally-as parents to their children-all to practice. That the practice of Buddhist practitioners, there are basic "consistent compassion" (one of five custom home care), deeper than wide at the center to develop all four immeasurable satisfaction (love, compassion, sympathetic joy, discharge). In that realm, compassion for others and living beings are infinite, even the love of parents towards their children also can not match. But not yet reached the stage practice, the position and interest of the scene in the feet of the above qualities, hard to start feeling things require experiment yourself, your parents are feeling. Romance was filled with a natural, friendly, family net, sticking from the blood, did not experience both physically and mentally I can not comprehend fully. So, except when one reaches the level of self, to realize fully the four boundless mind, otherwise still being treated with compassion but also to a large, but not free from conditions and gender time.


Perhaps so that event-related section-became an important factor for market Buddha declared a beneficial way to save suffering beings by other visualization methods, based on the child's feelings for their parents rather than vice versa . Thus, to perform the Bodhisattva path, saving sentient beings with infinite compassion and without discrimination, to equal the price of love and affection for the parent signs this life, then from father Mother of this world, many parents think of your life, and from many parents think of the countless lives innumerable beings in the three worlds and three times (past, present, future), all of which are their parents.


In the secular be? We already have the answer, do not hesitate to think, practice and love of others, other beings, as their parents, just like the religious world-event-related Items authors did. But reality shows, taste and feel compassion for the child's parents is very limited. Parents and children, I often think that children think of their parents. Therefore, the Buddhist scriptures as well as other religions, cultures or different ethics in both eastern and western continually call and remind and encourage their children about filial piety and love think of their parents. Buddhist texts recommend prompt signaling, which is to encourage education of the children. West is the date for father and mother are very formal, but not required to have a special day for children. As children, they need to remember, often, parents think that kindness newspaper temple. As for the parents need not call to remind all, because the love of parents for children is not limited, and without interruption. Almost all the time, and my whole life, thoughts and feelings parents have for children.


As a father has done before in the direction of fruit and, of course Buddha deeply felt that his parental love for La-la-most, his son; so that, when compared kindness Buddha's compassion for living beings with loving parents for their children, he said the fact his experience: the heart of higher awareness, as well as his father. It is the experience real, live, not theoretical. The comparison also suggests such a method we practice, taking children to visualize item, associative, and obtained mercy of the parents as material, as a driving force, thereby to open the full of infinite compassion.


It can be said that no religious teacher, or the religious leaders of any increase to the position of parents as the paramount place in Buddhism. Buddhist scriptures say, having no Buddhist period, the glass can worship his mother in the home, as well as offering the Buddha's blessings, parents are no different students spending money in the Buddha. Comparison does not deserve more. But we must also understand that all comparisons are relative: only borrow what you know to describe, visualize the unknown. Thus, the Buddha and his parents only similar in one respect only. Buddhist can not replace parents, and vice versa, parents can not replace the Buddha. Only the children how to love unconditionally and without limitation of the parents is rewarding, engraved, to learn, while in addition, parents are still normal people, living in a world of trouble brain, the UE before, also joy, anger, love, stained as anyone. Some parents often blame crime unfilial son, said that once they are married, living child, the parents forget, just take care of their families. Responsibilities such order shall also mean, as noble parents who also had the real taste, just caring and loving husband (wife) that I forget his parents (his grandparents, Department). The conflict was, is said to actually limit the child's family. Parents can only be the Buddha, the Bodhisattva, for their own children only.


Anyway, feel free his love, with compassion of the Buddha is not great, but for the children, the sea, the sky is wide, it's too full to live, grow, and go all the way hundreds five of them on home life full of love that color is not without pitfalls, thorns, or exchanging emotions, deception, falsehoods, from individuals or from groups.


On all the human emotions that parents love. Compassion for the child's parent is the compassion of the Bodhisattva of beings. Compassion does not distinguish the good or bad, kind or evil, smart or stupid filler, docile or stubborn ... Parents know only wounded. Even the handicapped child, sickness, mushrooms and life, parents are still injured, take care of each li by little, hugging, patting, coddle, as each jewel you Tiu. My parents are always shady, form the basis for children in all circumstances. Parents are like that, where children, despite the gray hair on the head, can still go back to natural pet, extortion, receiving love and tolerance noble heart.


At home, property left to parents when children are great, sometimes not much, sometimes nothing, but fortune love is infinite. In life, being also a kind of fortune desire compassion, suffering such research from the Buddha and Bodhisattva. Those who want to study Buddhist love all living beings, can start by learning from their parents. The love that no landing ashore. You can call it compassion. Compassion that interpretation and meaning of notes follow Buddhism very wide, say not the same. But we can barge into our parents to trade and business, will feel the immense character of compassion that we want to pay for other people like.


Bodhisattva injured beings can not launch any notion of distinction, no comparison. Like parents to children, the only thing love. Sage Business man, master has spent; trade and equal treatment with malicious, dishonest is difficult. But parents do for their children, the Bodhisattva must do for our students.


Dalai lama, who is revered as the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva Quan-the-music-organ Western tradition, saying that the practice spread compassion, he should first practice with those "cute," as parents, children, siblings, friends, the good knowledge, good neighbors ... and then, new advances to the stage to practice more challenging, it love is a subject that in real life, is one who "hated" his people.


No child goes down, business is not a parent; also, do not love the bad guys can not be called a Bodhisattva.


Over thirty years ago, when I was tiny, I heard a deep metaphorical story during a sermon by a preacher. Unfortunately, teachers do not tell you a story that quoted from books, or have said but I do not remember.


The story is that, in the village it has a large snake, usually biting the bad things, who have also avoided the two numbers. One day a monk walks, snakes to attack but did not see his terrible temper, but also exudes a love for it not shore terminals, solid rules to apply for life taught to move lives. Solid monks taught about compassion and tolerance, no damage to the lives of others. Teach then, monks continued on their way of. Snake in the teacher says, do not bite people, other animals do not eat meat, eat only vegetables. The children in the village herd initial solid experience fear and run away, but then again, that snake looks gentle and do not mean to bite, we all fear; not only that, come back stoned, beaten solid to complete their degrees of injury. Snakes monks remember, do not show any vicious attitude of learning, cruel, just have patience to endure the beatings of the children. One day, the monks have the opportunity to go through the villages, see snakes lay motionless roadside filled with his injury, the monk asked, "Why in this painful situation?" Snake crying: "Sir, since our main compassionate patience that children subjected to abuse by attacking others like this. I do not want to hurt anyone again bullied by people. "The monk said," I was wrong. Patience, compassion does not mean passive as rocks exposed to the attacks of others. With patience, you can endure every misfortune and uncertain start in life without resentment conviction; with compassion, love you always and not to harm others. But I can show a certain attitude to defend themselves, to others that you have the ability and bravery to kill them, but because of compassion, I do not. However, children are not necessarily harmful to their children to be good at networking. "Listen to the monks, the latter every time the kids were gathered persecution, snakes puff bearing, rolling eyes, teeth causing them to fear that fear away. Since then, the snakes are alone, keep the network in order to practice.


It is a story heard from more than thirty years ago. Ten years ago, I recounted this story in a feature-length works. The reason mentioned for thirty years and ten years, as though to say what time, for me, the meaning and methods of implementation of compassion will not change.


When necessary, the Buddha who can speak a voice of truth. The voice that comes from compassion, not by faith hatred. Out of compassion, but to defend those who are not self-defense methods. Out of compassion that spoke of the wicked advice, correct their mistakes. All for compassion to be of benefit to others. Like spoiled children when parents teach: the teaching trade. No spanking, la charge, found guilty of disloyalty because I did not do as you like. The wicked for the Buddha-like children delighted solid beat. If you do not make sense to look for opportunities of children, snakes should not be harmful to flee away; if not isolated, maybe teeth, rolling eyes to protect themselves. But the kids chased to the ends of the village went overkill then; no longer an expression of self-defense or protecting others, but only the strong boot from anger, malicious, psychological revenge.


The boy was password contempt. I know and get acquainted with him when he was ten months old, and toddlers. At three he offers to send me kept as far away he was fourteen months. At first I was afraid, because no experience as a father, how that care. But only a few days, it used to. A few days early, sometimes life is frustrating, annoying, that I must turn to speak out than with a few friends. After a week, the tangerine wrap, coddle, as well as cries of the boy was completely occupy me, my metabolism, making flashes radiating in all my love of a father. Bathing, changing diapers and formula, heating bottles, feeding, mouth to eat, hold holding, playing around, take me to play, sleep ... whatever I do, day and night, are filled with compassion. When the boy do the damage, I learned the way of western education, only slight finger lightly on the boy's hand, just quietly just taught, although he is not talking. But sometimes very frustrating because he refused to listen, often turning on stove, I wish more severe sanction instead of finger tapping on the wrong hands. I said, his voice laced bit angry, "Son, why are skeptical that old stove! Put your hands here. "Bewildered boy chubby hand out to me. Just imagine going to use chopsticks only lightly on his hands, the tears I had the fall and then, a fine can not be beat, either hit penalty to teach compassion. I know my parents love me seemed to know what.
After two months, my father brought him to the airport. The boy seems to be the inspiration apart. During the remaining hours, he sad, do not laugh. Before parting at the airport, I kissed his forehead; he also kiss on my cheek. Interest rates and I see pain in long.Toi know my parents had also injured my memory when I know how far from their families, away from discernment of the earth since the childhood.


Thank you parents have is the Bodhisattva of life of children. The benevolence of his parents taught you a lot and what led you to do, what not to do. As a father, even a foster father, I really feel what is the vastness, not landing the shore of love my parents, and feel how the compassion of the Bodhisattva. Compassion that radiate anywhere, bring in a cool, pleasant to them.


I know your parents love you, does not require any response to any report, and also never charge you a real taste. But far away, I still want to do something to inform the temple. Perhaps just a simple, keep your heart from, for others, as the parents had a lifetime love of it.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY BACH LIEN HOA.NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).
The child's mother clouds






When you see the Venerable Thich Thien Thuan teaching her the meaning of love through the theme of "clouds" I was really touched. He said his mother cried when her mother was certainly under a lot of pain the last tears flow. I have seen your mother cry ...


Mother cried a lot, then the commercial real mother and son very much hurt, but I do not know how to comfort her. I only know her and hugged her with tears.






Venerable Thich Thien Thuan at the Botanic Garden - Chicago 2006




Once upon a very poor family mother, grandfather of the family that goes back up, so I just made her grandmother has a father to raise five daughters, mother of six children rely on each other to live, but when her grandmother child's death in the United States, then things get really bad. When mother and three foreign patients aunt of the bay through which to feed foreign. There are times when your mother at the hospital alone, she cried a lot because just weeks ago mother and daughter walking along the ceremony "for her longevity," so that now the foreign sick. Mother told her that this time the foreign parent and child are happy at what she opened the door and count each full year of the new peace of mind then she went to bed. Now mother to Vietnam, her grandfather was told: "Although, we both child about, though not sad?" Foreign child replied: "sorry for, but know how now." My mother cried and asked her to take on with everyone but she does not agree, because she said there must be another year with his youngest daughter, as long as us through this child, the mother will return again. Any person who prepares the airport, I saw her standing behind foreign door looking for people to prepare, mother and daughter had run back hugging and crying a lot of foreign, so that all people are crying.


So that is now foreign to hospital bed, and before the external surface has opened my eyes, see with the presence of five daughters and external loss. Look at your mother's lecture about me, your mother was crying, crying so much, I also cried because her mother thought so sorry for your mother has lost a mother. Why did the unfortunate mother as such, the more I love you more. Besides the emotional rifts mother and sisters, some of the children were angry with each other aunt just left her alone in the middle people. Usually the last weekend home away from having to go to school. At dinner I felt very sad mood of the mother, the mother asked but not answered, the dark mother began to burn incense in the chair to sit down and ask her. Child's toddler son and his mother just had a conflict and the weeping mother told me: I try to learn to miss tomorrow if this mother is not well educated but to rely on ... I have cried at that time I just want to fall into the womb. Honestly I do not understand why the grandmother who lost the love between mother and sisters became so. From the day her mother crying every night were chanting in the temple, I think now only rely door to temple and Buddhist mother may be all sad. Tonight I go to her temple, as the mother to come home to the place of foreign and said: "Foreign Foreign remember much intact!" mother had kissed the picture of the foreign. Since your mother has a small child and looking very much like the Buddhist scriptures, but the tape is heard "MEANING LAN VU" and now I would love to hear the lecture "clouds" of Thay Thien Thuan, I have heard so many times but could not stop crying.






Venerable Thich Thien Thuan at the Botanic Garden - Chicago 2006




There is an evening when the children go to school to start listening to him lecture, I phoned home and told his mother: "Mom why her mother has the power of today's home?

Origin of


The yellow of Ca Sa






" For centuries, a distinct innate knowledge of inorganic chemistry has allowed the Buddhist monks of the coffee produced marijuana, convenient, reasonably bright yellow glowing fast. So what they used substances to dye? " The gold-colored robes separate gender-specific Buddhist monks are mostly made ​​of cotton fabric dyed in a special liquid from the timber "Jak "- English Vietnam called jackfruit tree.




* Paramita and giving full:


"Jak" - a Sanskrit word - is a very useful plant. It is a source of fruit to a green light, rough bark is sold in all markets in Asia. "Jak" or "Mit" is derived from India. Made In India, religious but give it a plant nicknamed "Paramita". Then, this tree planting in China and other Southeast Asian countries. As to Vietnam, by way of saying that the Vietnamese off from "Paramita" turned from "Mit" to this day. Indian language, the word "Paramita" (Ba-la-confidential) means "the other side," and this word is linked to intellectual Prajna bring liberation and the path by means of Contents paramitas to achieve liberation. The reason the Indians called the plant "Jak" trees "Paramita" because nature "providing completely" or "giving full" of the crops. The British do not understand is the wrong word "Jak" or not, but it left a meeting is called "Jackfruit" - perhaps to refer to "the full supply" their compound word Jack in the phrase "Jack of all trades" - a versatile, all-purpose, can do anything from fruit-with the "Jackfruit". Since "nature providing complete" tree "Paramita" for shade, fruit boiled alive made the dish, ripe for the zone as sweet as honey, nuts cooked food such as bread "snack", latex glue, composting leaves, timber houses, temples, pagodas ... Long hard core, if handled according to the ancient technique first curved beams will long centuries.




* Yellow dye from jackfruit wood


Monks use huge jackfruit wood shredding branches out, put in large pot of water on the tunnel processing techniques for the yellow dye melts and then chopped up boiled in a pot bring another. Y dyeing process consists of 20 separate steps, including several times dipped into a solution of soluble colored impurities are different. These substances but there are many different local names, but the geology is called stone city-block-mi-O (magnesium limestone and crushed-bo-), red soil and similar substances. Chemists define them as functions of drugs and staining of filters. Mixed dye as will make the color does not fade after the first few washings. Then it uses technical fabrics to smooth, clean hair with fabric softener to your skin during no monks wear it.




In view of the East, yellow represents wisdom and love. But behind the facts about the color yellow y lies a culture and extraordinary history. Buddhist perspective, the dye y is a symbol meaning of non-value. Y yellow is the color of intellectual freedom, beyond any earthly idea of ​​the color world. It is the color of any damage to determine for the secular that the wearer does not evoke a certain value of the attraction of the earth. These forms and rituals of the robes is a special method to determine the system of someone's faith is derived from the "Sramana" - the first increase momentum du ascetic of ancient India. Y tradition built on the Buddha Shakyamuni took the cloth to dress the cemetery mean limiting material desires to reach the sublimation of the spiritual and immortal. In many cases, these pieces are stitched into the cloth cloaks a rudimentary with only tendon fiber of coconut leaves alive. Wear this shirt feels like sandpaper to wear with it.


Over time, the world gradually became monks would settle in a monastery or monasteries instead of wandering life of freedom, we set a standard color and structure of fitting the pieces of fabric to determine hierarchy or religious sect which depends monks.


Today, in addition to y yellow color that people everywhere, there are reddish-brown y mainly the hermit monks of the default. In Thai, and particularly in Cambodia share the ordained nun dressed all white which Khmer called "Daun-chi".


When the Buddha advocated abandoning worldly desires and proposed middle way, His cherry shine as noble and serene colors of yellow robes.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY BACH LIEN HOA.NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).
How to meet the Buddha?






Through the Minister find Buddha


Through sound find Buddha


Doing so is wrong


How to meet the Buddha?


During the Buddha's birthday this year, celebrating the occasion of Buddha was born in this world to save sentient beings, try to think: we have not seen the Buddha? If not, how can we meet the Buddha? Having to wait after the dead, reborn Western bliss, Buddha met the reasonable? There have only just met the Buddha Buddhists reasonable?


Or affordable: we all can meet Buddha on this earth, even in this life, no matter who is Buddhist or not Buddhist, regardless of that person or family at home? It seems everyone has these questions, so let's turn to find the answers together based on the teachings of Buddhism.


Almost everyone knows the history of Buddhist Buddha: his birth in the garden Lam Ty Ni, known as Prince Siddhartha, the son of the King and Queen Ma Section Gia, who ruled the kingdom of Ca Ty La Ve, of India now. He grew up, married, have children, as well as how many other people on earth. Then out of the palace tour, see the scene: birth, aging, sickness and death, of human life, so he determined to ordain clergy, to find escape routes and enlightenment under Bodhi tree. Then he moved the wheel of dharma, dharma being saved in 50 years, finally nirvana in Ta La garden. Thus, the Buddha has entered nirvana, Buddha we find where, how do we meet the Buddha?


Actually, we do not need to look no further Buddha, no need to go through India, or to meet Buddhist pagoda. Buddha always in life, even in this world, exists everywhere, but we do not see, because we view life through the eyes of flesh, but forget to use the intellectual eye, to observe what Hidden inside, or the meaning of the work. Where the statues of Buddhas, intellectual eye is represented by precious jewel in the middle brow, always light, meaning: Property registration often shown, that is often light intellectual light, and eyes meat, always closed, not hanging on the ceiling scene. Posted Tue often compare human life that is always aware, no confusion, no alluring sensual world, living in the world, but not upset, nor suffering. We have found through the living Buddha in all human beings. The silver eagle that lives across space and time, not limited in a hundred years of human life.

In everyday life, when dealing with contact people around, we often look at life with eyes of flesh, the flesh books called labels, so just see the outside appearance of the person, distinguish between men and women, high and low, good bad, young and old, big kid, rich or poor, sick sharks. Because people look so distinguished, so feel sorrow and suffering rather than peace and happiness. Why?


Because, when a distinguished look, people see only all the beings around, so start loves attention, make your life crazy island, restless mind. For instance, when meeting someone beautiful, resuscitation, or having something precious, rare commodity, the greed of birth, favorite spot, want to make your own possession. The gloating satisfaction, enjoyment, and not be as mind, consciousness, the hatred, hate, frustration, fuming. Such as having a poor, uneducated, then looked down upon consciousness, discrimination, cheap, also met the wealthy, educated, the desire, dreams, sycophantic. Such as having a fatty, laughing, having a thin, then processed. People often have a dream to be peaceful, but mind the scene on the ceiling to run away like that, whirring chaotic day, month after month, year round, how peaceful life, happy to be?


In the Kinh Kim Cang, the Buddha taught: "Ly Nhut set therein, the general marketing list." That is: When will forsake all external appearances, did not accept the appearance of this other world, we can recognize the Minister of all people. To minister is that? That's really are the true people of all people in this world. People that genuine uniform, not the other, irrespective of men and women, young and old, big baby, color, ethnicity, nation, language, religion, culture, class, origin, knowledge, academic, qualifications.


Everyone had the same minister, because love is not the same treatment, different karma, so other external appearances. Such as: The time involved is lying eye contact, the director, through the island, the island again. The anger is punished eyes rolling, drew fierce fire, tough. The delusion is lackluster eyes, silly.


From a Buddhist, not only offering opinions prostrate, begging prayer, pray for safety, peace bridge, bridge to bliss, to all kinds of talk, pray for happiness, represented the Minister, not nothing else! Not so! Buddhist practice is to end the mind-dues, attendance buffalo, buffalo mind, do not jog, destructive wild, people trampled fields, butting west is playing decent burst, every moment.


Buddhist practice is to find human truth, or enlightenment to his own generals. There really are no immortal beings. Enlightenment is the Minister shall escape birth and death, according to the teachings of the Buddhas tam. In human flesh, the body panels books called big four, only existed less than a hundred years more!


While normally, two kindred spirits, sociable, modest, cheerful, polite, not the other. When events happen, the nursing care that cultivate awareness, keeping the relaxed calm, do not start greed, hatred or ill will not start without starting center delusion. If someone completely preserve the pure mind, in all circumstances on earth, before the bowl style of life, whether or loss, whether praise or blame, whether permanently or humiliating, whether pleasure or pain, heart nature is always calm calmly, always smiled a smile of calm in order, that person is a Buddha.


A Buddha is not descended from heaven, not from the earth emerges. A Buddha bold parts of locations, such as the Lotus Sutra teaches, that is, from the place where the mind of every human being that the transformation, transformation of evil into good, converted from greed hatred and delusion pollution, or capital of the pure mind. A Buddha attained enlightenment from where people know from center nursing identity, the right-Fold Path, the true Dharma. Those who have not achieved completely so, are the ones who are on the way to practice, elaborate how much, she has found peace and happiness much. Rather than pray that van parked!


According to legend, when Prince Siddhartha connoisseurs, there are two naga spraying water to bathe him. A hot water spray. A jet stream of cold water. This deeper meaning is as follows: as well as Prince Siddhartha, who in this world, to bear the power of the two currents, floating heat cold patience, represents the pressure regularly and the opposite of life, such as: rise and fall, cancel plans, claiming the, hard touch, generally bowl style, that person is a Buddha in the future.


In the vast majority of life, when the event occurs, the mind immediately starts up greedy, can not stop, always thinking of the power struggle, harm their interests, incite harm another person, regardless of the paragraph, my post litigation, to dispose of assets, rights to possession, stealing hui delinquent debt. If the target is the millions of dollars, people treat each other more and more frightening, more terrible, not even including paternity, husband and wife, friends, teachers, siblings, friends and relatives at all , of human life, of itself be considered dirt cheap! Fellow, and you, comrade, comrades, fellow believers, fellow colleagues, the staff, no value at all, no sense at all. Only the money is, above all, is universal, capable of pushing, people dictate into a vicious circle very easily. Closed doors of heaven, gates of hell wide open from here!


When events happen, even one word innocuous, inadvertent neutral, or a small gesture, but self-love collisions, injuries of the human face, hatred or ill will immediately start up, can not stop, people immediately think about revenge, vengeance, as every way, making the enemy, I do not like, do not be quiet life, death is not complete, reclining tilt things stand, creating stories evil, making people falsely, shattered honor, ragged fringed te, ha, the new, new deal inch of your heart, mind being local, ordinary to death, deep dangerous evil, of a person. When bread forces rampage, despite Microsoft, Yahoo to heaven, the people turned tung, people dare to do well, no matter how the consequences! So therefore, many people lost happiness within reach, or to lose talented associates trusted, not only because of the ground attack was so restrained.


When events happen, people do not cooperate, not even with his back, his mouth immediately behind the spray of blood, no matter who laughed his dirty mouth, poke was stabbed with paddy rice, goofy enough stigma thing, the bar is to find deep or removes dirt out bugs, as long as shortcuts, never leave! Also due to mental delusion inducement, human beings flimflam, superstition, begging God, pray god, look for river wading streams, water, poor sanitation, for the holy water, treat the three diseases, What is this bridge, also brought about drinking, even for people that have more degrees, whether low or high, the outside world, or in the lead!


The Flower Adornment Sutra, the Buddha taught: "Nhut set period of organic beings Buddha Nature." That is: "All beings are visual identity." Everyone has sensory awareness, smart fellowship, not the other, called the Truth in the scriptures or Buddha Nature Center, but only because different karma, greed hatred and delusion are different, so are suffering distress also different, the external appearance is also different. Such as the moon always clear, no different, but every night there are many dark clouds, we see the moon faded much. Such as sea surface wind was still calm waves, peaceful, generous, vast, look away, that broad, immense floral bowl, but when hurricanes rise, waves to winds, dark skies, no also saw nothing. Moon clear, tranquil sea, represents the pure heart of everyone. It is also the human truth or Truth Heart Buddha Nature of all people. Clouds or waves to winds, symbolizes the suffering of suffering, cover partially, or hide completely the human mind is no longer clear whole again.


Thus, the question where to find the Buddha, how to meet the Buddha, it's too easy, anyone can answer. First of all, Buddha means Buddha, the Buddha had in history, was born in India, religious and enlightenment, more than 2500 years ago, right on this earth, at the plane that she is , not the other realms, not western bliss. That answer almost Nhut, simple Nhut, obviously Divisions. However, the books have a saying: "It has turned Nhut set origin", which means that the Buddha is everywhere, Buddhism around us, but we do not know, do not realize that only. That is the meaning of sublime mystery of the word "Buddha". That is the actual path, life is much help light of enlightenment and liberation, life is more peaceful and happy, people are more calm and order in, reducing the distress and suffering.


The books also have a saying: "Mind, Buddha, sentient beings, tam wealth gap." That is: "Mind, Buddha and sentient beings, all three are not different, no difference." Buddha and sentient beings obligation raw nature often empty silence, in prayer books known as non status. Heart of the matter does not contain any images of living beings in the three worlds, six lines, empty, silent, her mind is the Buddha mind. Text Organization also says: "Buddhism News Center, Center News Buddha," is meant that way.


When you see someone in the temple, imploring the Buddhas begging for this thing the other, rather the standing instruction: The communists seek Buddha Buddha! That is what Buddhas have left sorrow, only teaches us to practice law subject to free, to become a Buddha, we refuse to practice, to escape their own defilement suffering, whereas we beg invoke the afflictions, such as: money, fame, what is this convention, once four million profit, traders may sell dear, such a competition, unharmed, the higher the gate is wide, the last thing is for national rebirth bliss! Bridges are not, suffering is the sure! Cau any prime, ie not suffering wrong!


We can find Buddha images, through the legs from the school, to the full moral, is the fulcrum, the place specified threshold, to all beings find peace when close. We can find Buddhist around the world, where there is love reigns, there is compassion sympathetic joy discharge the money, is a Buddha in the right place. Any person who, though not a Buddhist, whether at home or Buddhist renunciation, which in a certain period of time, developed the Mind, open Heart Truth, observes a good neighbor, because people forget their , showing the center of four large: compassion sympathetic joy equanimity, is right in that moment, he is living with Buddhist center, like a Buddha. But after that moment of enlightenment, he returned to ordinary life, the Buddha mind back potential, waiting for another chance to develop. Buddha is fully enlightened being and forever, always awake and lucid. Other beings in that Buddha: just glow in the moment, and then immersed in the darkness of ignorance. Why? Because people can not afford beyond the three worlds, is not enough out of the house fire, not enough to resist the power of the buffalo's mind, means that people are "career mode cover" and often " know that the problem of "!


For a realistic and practical methods, in the everyday life of the Buddhists, in part or ordained, Text To teach: "We view Buddha born as living beings, so suffering affliction . Buddhas view sentient beings as Buddhas, so the self in nirvana. " If a thorough understanding, a thorough teaching this way, we immediately know how to meet the Buddha, Buddhist, or find where? We often think that the Western Buddhist bliss, Buddha in the temple, Buddhism in the books, Buddha statues in wood, bronze, silver, gold, or by painting. And all the beings around them all! Because look, I know, I think, such a concept, so people have a lot of suffering affliction, not so inevitable, never-ending.


People do not know that yourself with Heart Truth, Buddha Nature, and everyone around us is the same thing, not the other. People wearing glasses being, ie looking at life through the center rings, so look everyone can see is just being, look who just see the bad habits of them, look everyone can see hateful, look everyone can see considerable precautions, anybody that wants to look away from, but never, look at yourself, whether good or bad, so have many, suffering affliction, and then wait for death, drag on Western, Princess of bliss , to meet the Buddha, how to meet?


But the Buddhas and enlightened people, that support religious nature center, wearing glasses serene view life with a pure heart, look around and see someone who is their true mind, Buddha Nature, seeing everybody generally around and understand that they are buddhas will become in the future, near or far depending on elaborate practice of each, see everyone around also know they have it than his worth to his study, looking at who around to see who is true man, not man is obnoxious minister involved, not the general people's awful tough pitch, not the general human si naive naive. So that the buddhas and enlightened, nursing care that cultivate awareness, always an order in nature, calm relaxed, the realm of nirvana is money. We have enlightened, peaceful new life and happiness as such, the new release from suffering and pain. Life meaning, life worth living, from here!

In summary, the Kinh Kim Cang, the Buddha taught: "For whatsoever own minister, the period of expected market failure. The bad reviews rather general comments Tathagata ie non-general". That means: whatsoever in this world, whatever may have damaged the general outlook, which date must be spoilage, decay, including Buddha statues, whether made of whatever material, too, of elements including body panels, after hundreds of years have also left. If we look at people, not by external appearances, regardless of discrimination, prejudice is not unfair, then we will see the Tathagata ie Buddha Nature Center to see the Truth, and of his people, uniform is no different! It is human truth, no birth no death. Reviews enlightened Tathagata ie, an escape from birth and death.


Also in Business Kim Cang, the Buddha taught:


"The bad reviews certainly fall colors.


Sure sounds to fall.


South multiplication of the pagan.


Tathagata disability reviews. "


That is: If someone looked through appearances, appearance, or by sound, but for the Buddha, or the appearance that there is such, that sounds so new, is the Buddha, the person is on the wrong track , lost, unable to meet the Buddha, the Tathagata can not see. In other words, people who thought: Lord Buddha more, ie appearance, many chanting Buddhist, that is sound, then to see the Buddha, Buddhism dreamed of, such people, not knowing what, is the wrong direction, how to understand the Tathagata? Why? Because, only Tathagata Buddha or emotional nature, invisible formless, no appearance can be seen through the eyes of man meat. So therefore, like to see the Tathagata, to meet the Buddha, one must develop prajna wisdom, to realize true human, recognizes Truth's own Buddha Nature Center and the people around them one.


In Business Prime Surangama, and the Kinh Dai Bat Nirvana, the Buddha taught: "Birth registration kill kill, kill the current president of money, delivery of course kill kill, kill president of communications." That is: When does the human mind, the whirring no confusion arises, such as the concepts involved, field conception, conception si, start up and then settles down to call is being killed, immediately put away at birth over, no longer that peaceful quiet mind, no disturbance, no unrest, calm relaxed, calm yourself in, so called: passed away the money, because lost or passed away, that is the scene world peace, nirvana itself in, is right in front. The mood of insecurity because of the concept being killed, called beings. Mind being killed kill it, no whirring chaos again, become the heart is not president, empty and citizenship, completely pure, namely: a pure heart or mind of Buddha.


So want to see the Buddha, we just need to practice the method, even Zen, Pure Land, or esoteric, ie: meditation, meditation, walking meditation, meditation posture quartet, singing songs, Buddha, maintain focus, to the ultimate level, to obtain the "heliocentric any disorder." At that time, we encounter not only Buddhist, but we have the whole of the Buddhist Religion so.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY BACH LIEN HOA.NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).
