Lesson 1.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH. EDUCATION MEANS INDIA BEFORE TIME BUDDHA OF WORLD Buddhism is very respectful of origination , for beings universe to observe it may not resort to reasonable cause and condition of birth; Therefore, with Buddhism itself , we can not say that they arise without a cause and arise spontaneously . Now that we want to recount the origin of Buddhism , we should refer to the ancient Indian philosophies in relation to their adaptation and reformation . The people of India about 4000 years ago were originally from the Alyda race from Central Asia. The ancestors of this race used to worship the sun , moon , wind, clouds, water, fire, mountains and rivers, etc. and other natural objects . They believe that these natural things are governed by gods . Depending on that to pray for blessings, they set up a group of people specializing in sacrifices called Brahmins . She is subject to group objects naturally in heaven composed out of all psalms praise , words psalms It is extremely complete which contains a lot of philosophical ideas . Initially the words psalms only be transmitted orally, to after writing the newly copied files together into the following four. 1. Le sentence veda ( praise the argument ). 2. Ba Ma Ve Da ( Ca bay Minh argument ) . 3. Da Du Ve Da (The Self- Explaining Te ). 4. A tathagata Veda ( Non-early-mind theory ). Four of Vedic literature the absolute sense color depth believers Brahmin choose the clothes that the four sets of Vedic compiled a called third is where it means the book of theology . This book takes material from the Veda to invent the secret points of the oral tradition of Brahma . Then they compiled a series called Alanya ca, which means studying the profound philosophies while in retreat in the forest. And from the collection of Alanya songs, the essential parts are selected to form the Upanishads , that is, the philosophical thoughts in philosophy . In summary in about 1000 years early Vedic much- revered , 500 years after Mrs. la ma trying times in prevailed. Both were taken Brahma do Beings sovereign beings the universe , and that someone usually sacrificed Brahma will harvest a lot of merit . More later literature and thinking people date a progress , some scholars when explaining Brahma , they think the world but is suffering but nature is one and called ontology that is intersection. That is, the self and Pham are inherently a separate thing with a name, there are two, it's just that the self is Pham's soul, which is the spiritual nature. But Pham and Self are already one, so why are there different gender phenomena ? A: All of them are Ma Gia Ma, translated as illusory. If it is possible to attain the wisdom that realizes the reality of the Self, then the deluded samsara is just a dream and calls it Nirvana . However, is wisdom easy to achieve ? All must rid ourselves of all negativity and thoroughly clean hope the new achievements are. Because the method of letting go of hopelessness, eliminating hopelessness and the ultimate goal of the religion, there is a difference, so the division of many different sects is as follows. 1. Gender Total Comments : Pros get real Self in three ni sa talks with Illusory not really have established theory Spirit down nature of duality . 2. Asceticism (also known as Zen Buddhism) advocates that the Self is the life of this Self, which is different from the Illusion. The ideas of this faction are largely the same with that of the Argumentatives . Later, when the Buddha appeared in the world, he did not inherit all of these doctrines , but only took a part of Illusion as a document to establish the cause and effect of dependent origination . For Huu down theory Buddhism totally disapprove get so Buddhism is the religion out how . 3. Next, there is also a sect of Asceticism , the leader of which is Ni Kien Tu, also known as Ni Candala , which is Chinese translated as Ly system . This position was born in the vicinity of the city of Vesali . This school advocates that there are four distinct castes using 12 pure dharmas as Brahmins . Except that all chains of camps have, ø commandment prohibiting killing sacrifice Here are the similarities with Buddhism . In addition , this sect and Buddhism have many relationships with ups and downs, they encourage followers to practice ascetic practices, so they have a great influence on Indian society . The cardinal was born before the Buddha and died while the Buddha was still in the world . Until later when Buddhism was waning in India this sect is still a lot of belief . At that time in India full of believers austerity with some followers fallacies theory, some scholars progress once in visible spots wrong Grade ascetic , fallacies. Again, due to the extreme injustice of the four classes, the benefits of liberation have not been widely disseminated , so everyone in society wants to have a great transformation. Over time long distance throughout all everywhere but still do not have a god saint yet striking out how . Responding to the wishes and wishes of the time that appeared, that person was the great saint Sakyamuni . Lesson 2 THE LIFE OF THE BUDDHA BEFORE GOING OUT The historical record of the Buddha from time to time is inherently inconsistent. Either there is a place to add truth , or to abuse literary beauty , or to use examples and predestined circumstances somewhat excessively . So to issue the truth of Him today we also difficult to define shape. Now, in the Dharma-ending period , we only take the relative part to narrate a few basic features of the life ofGreat Buddha as follows. Trace the status of refugee organizations Buddha which came from ethnic Mongol (with the theory that he came from the race Alyda, this is completely contrary to history ). The family name of his clan is Shakyamuni, also known as Cu Dam, who lives in the city ​​of Kiep billion, and fines the land north of the La Bat De River . His father is King Tinh San and his mother is Queen Ma Gia . At the age of 45, the queen gave birth to him under the sala tree in the garden of Lumbini and named him Siddhartha . It was on April 8 (Al) 2476 years before the Nation (it is said to be 2938 years before the National). After seven days of birth to get ice queen, cell sample bat is far to replace the queen care nourish him. Although he was young, his wisdom surpassed ordinary people, all worldly doctrines such as: industry, history, literature , astronomy , digital calendar, etc., did not have any subjects that he did not understand. He is adept in martial arts such as archery, horse racing, etc. His health is superior to human, everyone respects him, no one is invincible . From above, from the King of Pure Land to the common people, everyone loved and thought that he would later be the one to conquer the four directions, unifying the territory was not so difficult. At the age of 16, the Crown Prince got married. His wife's name was Da thum dala and she gave birth to a son named La Hau La . Although his body was in the earthly prison , his mind was not infected with sensual pleasures , and all his conceptions and feelings were completely different from the worldly ones . Day to walk out the door, he saw a ragged peasant clothes work very hard under the sun the sun , covered with their dust breath deluge of sweat net. The buffalo was tied with a plow, choked with a tight rope , and was sometimes beaten by a farmer, with blood flowing out. In each slice plow pests being trampled, after people and buffalo rested species of birds under the furrow surgery find worms ... Seeing scenes Condition heartbreaking so, he found heart concerns and injured surviving deep Think of the suffering and killing of all sentient beings . The second time he walked somewhere else on the way, he saw an old man with white hair and long teeth , his face was black and dry, his skin was wrinkled, his back was bent down, his hands and feet were shaking , his breathing was heavy . Every time that person breathes, the throat makes a sound similar to the sound of pulling a tree for fire. The third time he went to a place , on the way to see a sick body wasting, flesh yellow belly beauty pale, breath panting belly grow up the vertebrae discrete, whenever he moving , groaning, walking was extremely difficult. Finally, he went to another place for a walk . On the way he saw a procession of people carrying a funeral , with many relatives around crying; or who pen hair or someone hand punch to the chest, so painful the ultimate cry rang mourning , crying deeply mournful makes the listener no one can refrain unto. Seeing such a mourning scene , he sadly told the charioteer to return to the palace . That night he sat thinking all night without sleep, compassion for sentient beings strongly arose , always thinking of the sufferings of sentient beings where he had passed. (This is the main driving force for the arising of the Buddhadharma . In terms of long-term people, it is due to the past... and in terms of near-causes , it is as presented above.) Thus, after observing and sympathizing with the extreme suffering of sentient beings , at midnight on February 7th, when everyone was sleeping peacefully on all sides, he sent a horseman named Xa Nau to beat Kien's horse. monitoring beyond the supply of. When he reached the east of Lamma country , he stopped and told Xa Nu to return his horse . Here he took off the coat and shakes hat treasure shaved cells become 're recluses . He was only 19 years old that year. After Xa Nun returned to the palace to report the news, King Tinh San was extremely surprised and sent his courtiers to chase him and advise him to return but to no avail. The king then sent five Kieu mortal brothers to serve him. lesson 3 BODHISATTVA TU OF THE BUDDHA After abandoning the secular world, he went to the ascetic forest to study with the old lady Bat . The purpose of this person is to practice asceticism to seek rebirth in heaven . Undergo a period of practice he is not happy with that practice, came from author Forerunner goes to regions surrounding the capital city of Vaishali , shifting Forerunner A la la ca lam learn religion freed . You Forerunner is taken realm Unknown Origin ownership as Nirvana supreme . Initially, because he did not fully understand the content of the practice of this sage , it was to temporarily suspend all activities of consciousness , keep practicing like that in the next life, you will achieve the result of nothingness, so stay. practice for 3 years. When fully articulate position finality still down by four aggregates employed, until the force out, right now, depending on which đoạ optimisticsamsara , not satisfied with that practice, he left. He left to study religion with the Forerunner named head Uat ca la ma death in the United amnesty . At first noticed the practice of this position with respect to the Supreme possesses natural origin of Forerunner A somewhat strange at all lam excel more, and he brought shifting under cultivation . Experiencing the time of two years, he clearly aware of your practice is still temporary refuge in the effort to to achieve retribution polarity only. Until the power of concentration is exhausted, the practitioner still cannot escape the cycle of birth and death, so that fruit is not the ultimate goal . Thus he has to recognize is the whole idea philosophical world is not legal vacuum chief to reach liberation , and they leave all to shore Nairanjana River where forest ascetic and five brothers Kieu ceiling Ascetic initiates tasted all kinds of bitter hardships. After a period of six years, day and night diligently fighting the demon army, but only hard work did not achieve results. He realized that the ascetic practice was only useless labor , so he went down to the Ni River to meditate and wash the bowl of milk of Tu Xa to make offerings to his health and recover , and the five brothers of the Kieu celanders saw this and turned their mind to a change of heart. leave Him. By this time Liked religion has penetrated the legal world and has stopped except for legal entities that, He alone straight to the tree Every bat is the judge sitting cross-legged and vows big: "I if not attained position Supreme Bodhi The problem is , even if you are broken, you will not leave this place…” (The above passage is seen in the solemn and generous Phuong Sutra ). After making a vow , he entered Vajrayana concentration , using the force of vajra samadhi to cut off the first important factor of ignorance of the 12 causes and conditions., Means that the fundamental 've solved complete ignorance eradicated, the birth and death benefits bi suffering is no longer available. The state at that time seemed like a sharp knife to cut off all the tangled cords, like the sun shining on a long dark night, when the morning star appeared He had completely cut off all thoughts,û entered the state of peacefully attained the status of A Nau-da-la-tam-mu-ti , becoming a Buddha with the name Shakyamuni , that year he was 30 years old. In the Lotus Sutra, there is a passage that reads: "After attaining enlightenment, he exclaimed, "Strange! strange! Come on or all living beings have the full virtue of the Tathagata's wisdom , because they are ignorant and deluded, but they don't see it... We will now bring the holy way to teach and make living beings completely stop their delusions , once they expect them. If you put an end to everything, you will realize the immeasurable wisdom of the Tathagata." Although the above sentence belongs to the scope of Mahayana , we can still guess, even if we are ordinary people, the state of joy and amazement of the Buddha on the day of enlightenment . Naturally nowhere vastly can melt into pieces, both contemporary address the vast and the sea can be collected into a pore, on the French border in a few games, so because the Buddha was itself proof these dharmas, but he was not attached to any dharma. He remained radiantly motionless and entered the sea ​​seal samadhi for 21 days, for the sake of bodhisattvas in the ten directions of the world, who preached the great Buddha-Flower Sutra in the great directions . Lesson 4 WHEEL OF DHARMA. After attaining enlightenment , he wanted to spread his enlightenment throughout the world . At first ask you A la la ka lam ... but you had died , he went to Sarnath origin Benares investment, where having five brothers Kieu ceiling , even the previously servant lower Him. The Buddha for the sake of the five brothers and sisters in the world is like saying the Four Truths . He taught monastics that there are two kinds of obstacles, namely, being infatuated with sensual pleasures without being able to escape, which is the cause of being unable to be liberated ; and do not think mature origin of suffering themselves to demand liberation , should also not be achieved by liberation . The monastic needs to separate from the two previous attachments to be the middle way, just like that diligently practicing can all attain the path and fruition of Nirvana . After he returned to the land of Ma Kiet Da , in the middle of the road many followers asked for ordination , most of them were disciples of the three fire-worshiping Brahmins . These three brought a thousand disciples to take refuge with him. The three leaders worshiping fire, the first brother is Uu Lau-tran loca-lettuce , the second brother is Na-deca-lettuce, and the youngest brother is Gia Da Ca Lettuce . Press event that makes everyone in the land of Magadha Development Center provided direction to him very powerful. Then he went to the royal city , where the likes of Sariputta , Muc Kien Lien , Dai Ca Lettuce… in turn asked the Buddha to leave home . King Bimbisara also give rise to the refuge . King tectonic Truc Lam monastery as a place of summer retreat, retreat to the Buddha and the Sangha . He went to Linh Thuu mountain again, in the middle of the way, when he heard that his father was seriously ill, he returned to his hometown to visit. At that time, his half-brother, Nanda, along with other brothers such as Devadatta , A Nau Da, and others, all asked the Buddha to leave home . The three-cup drinker also said goodbye to his family and asked for a favor . By the way, there are more than 1200 of His disciples , who are often close to Him. Because the Buddha preached the Dharma as well as the popular religionists of his day, he did not place too much emphasis on a few scholars but on profound philosophies . He also did not praise and encourage the ascetic practice of laboring body and mind with no benefit . Especially his teachings only practical way clear with disciplines close disciple. He did not distinguish people on man, rich and poor, ordained at home ... but only against the practice , abandoning evil and doing good, cultivating morality as the basis . All these actions have shown his infinite compassion for sentient beings and his best efforts in his great work of teaching sentient beings . The following year, he went to Savat again , where the bourgeois Tu Dat built a monastery for the monastic life of Ky Tho level . Wihan is becoming ashrams large transient Buddha, so Buddha preached much of them in this spot. After he comes Vaishali , who are monks word to na when visiting home with his ex-wife the whore, by events that Buddha processing instructions adultery is the first milestone forming the processing instructions later . In the same year, La Hau la left home , Sariputta , and Muc Kien Lien was appointed by the Buddha as a teacher. After attaining enlightenment for twenty-five years, Ananda left home , and shortly after his mother Bat-la- sa also gave up the worldly world and asked the Buddha to leave home . The world of nuns was allowed by the Buddha's means to establish . During his life , he passed through areas such as: North of Kiep billion La Dai good park in Tuyet Le Son, West of Cau Diem Di, East of Champa , and South of Poland . These areas all belong to the Khac Gia Da and Kha river basins. Great to like the following chart. Taking the Ganges as the center bronze male West North City name Pampering , Ma is exhausted Benares investment Diem Di, Xa Ve, Capil la , This exam question Country name Ma exhausted momentum Ca thi Kieu all is Pi la ca ashram Truc Lam , Linh Thuu Son Fake fortune Longevity member Great Forest Monastery , Question na la Out-of-household Canada Skins You have achieved a lot Pure momentum In addition to the above ashrams, followers also donate to the Three Jewels many gardens, forests, viharas , houses, etc. to the mountains and river banks. Even to areas such as On Tuyen Lam , Niu Giac sala Lam along the Di river ... are the places where the Buddha when he was born, he often came to preach the Dharma . Lesson 5 THE BASIC TEACHING OF BUDDHA Teachings basic of Buddha though full of gratitude philosophical , but called a philosophy that called the teachings of the Buddha ( Buddhism ), by Buddhism which overlooked philosophy . The Buddha placed great emphasis on teaching and salvation as the basis , his compassion was aimed at liberating all sentient beings from the sea of birth and death , so his attitude was very definitive , that is, notunthinkable , absurd idea that is working extremely practical . Teachings basics of the Buddha is the reason the Four Noble Truths are found in four A levels , which are really his teachings. What is the Four Noble Truths ? are suffering, practice, cessation and the Way. In the Four Noble Truths of Suffering, and set the causality of the earth , and Religion is Killing causality worldly appearance . Relying on the teachings of His Human being objective and World relating to observe cosmic beings , not a legal entity is not mournful yet urgent here called suffering. Suppose we have to approach the world sometimes is not really no pleasure, but because of the pleasure he either momentarily or is due by comparison that, absolutely can not be the ultimate truth. Why? Because they are ordinary people from beginningless time to this day, forever drifting in the sea of ​​rebirths, every day the suffering is repeated over and over and forgotten. This is observing the suffering of ordinary people according to the teachings of the Buddha . Next, investigate the cause of suffering, ie the cause of the establishment of the world, and clearly state the types of afflictions . The worldly man, due to the creation of afflictions , is forever immersed in the sea of birth and death. This is called the Noble Truth . Buddha specify the causal world , he again rely on 12 predestined clearly teaches the rotation continuity of the ordinary . Due to karma as a cause, ignorance is borrowed as a condition, causing feelings to produce suffering. So meticulous practice first step of the ordinary is the clue to an end much ignorance , a clue when ignorance terminate unless it takes just can not hurdles , will achieve liberation liberation . The notion of suffering and this is only set on the premise to reach the enlightenment . Bombu we need to have conceived the right to cause suffering, and set new can achieve the liberation . So the Buddha spoke again about the Truth of Cessation . The ultimate goal of a cultivator is to take the fruit of good Nirvana as a place of direction, to make an effort to cut off ignorance and extinguish the fire of human desire in order to achieve the position of liberating food , which is called cessation . The Emperor of Extermination takes nothing as a benefactor, and takes the Dao Emperor as a benefactor. Thus the Buddha because beings say Eightfold Path , this method has the ability to help beings reach results Nirvana and wholesome. Thus declaring both times of cause and effect Enlightenment , this is the basic teaching of the Buddha . Comments on the form of the universe and other types of teachings are derived from the view of the human life, the world view of the Four Truths . Therefore, the basic teaching of the Buddha does not go beyond the Four Noble Truths . By teachings of this than teachings sect Number of arguments with other denominations. Teachings of He became thesis precisely on the law in the world , so Buddhism is established as religioushad an innovative education with particular philosophies , not like the crooked scholars of the future who were only good at imagining and imitating. Because of the nature that we respect profess Buddhism is the one saint is of course probably so. Lesson 6 The Emperor and the Sixth Continent The Dao Emperor is a dharma in the Four Noble Truths, the content of which is presented in 37 articles of support . Traceability primal of sole director that is the Noble Eightfold Path . When the Buddha first became enlightened in the garden of Loc false, because of the five brothers and sisters of Kieu Tran, it was as if they were teaching the Middle Way, or the Eightfold Path . The reason he said the Eightfold Path was for two reasons . 1. Because ordinary people do not realize that the world is inherently suffering, not, impermanent... so the mind is greedy for the dharmas that take suffering as pleasure , causing them to fall into the wrong attachment to one side. 2. Because they are ignorant outsiders, denying all worldly pleasures , relying on austerities to seek liberation , this is also falling into the wrong attachment to one side. The Buddha, in order to save two dangerous attachments of ordinary people and non- Buddhists , said the Eightfold Path to refer to the middle path . But what is the relationship between the Eightfold Path and the Six Degrees ? This is the problem we need to find out . Simply put, the practice of the Eightfold Path and the practice of the Six Doctrines is another name for self-benefiting others , which can also be called the premise of benefiting sentient beings . Why? As ordinary ardent practitioner About the Property must first accept sacrifice all rights personally , patience for any hardships then maybe achievements About the Property, reached the purpose salvage supreme Nirvana . Design review aspects of the benefit of others , prior to diligently cultivate About the Property then can endure sacrifice all rights personally , patience for all the hardships, just for the sake of beings that makes me and co ashore enlightenment , achievements purposes ultimatum is the fruition Supreme Bodhi . Or the idea that the two measures Giving and Patience in that moment , that comes after the period of Buddhist its earliest stages of Buddhism developed. Views this completely not accurate , by the well at that time of the bodhisattva is already in talks why Bon birth suspect . Now, I would like to point out the relationship between the Six degrees and the Eightfold Path as follows. bai6 Teachings basic of Buddha university to be so. This ancient masters coinage are compliant , ensuring a lifetime preaching of Lord Buddha spoke to a temporary , five times , Thaip time; II teachings , magnetostrictive Five teacher , Lu teacher, teacher ... Seven Now for the allocation which is like as orchids spring daisies autumn , all currently outstanding racing scrambling beauty breeze aroma. Termites contact between that time and the Noble Eightfold Path , although we have tried to study but intellectually limited time does not allow , it is impossible to unravel it. We just hope we have another opportunity to cover this issue more fully. Lesson 7 THE POWER OF THE BUDDHA The energy of the Buddha must be found in his virtue and profound wisdom . Depending on His actions and gestures , it is difficult for us to predict clearly . Observing the life of the Buddha from childhood until the age of twenty, he left the palace of Kapilavastu, sacrificed all the glory of the emperor, except for the wealth of the palace , and went to the ascetic forest. , from a noble prince , but in a moment he became a beggar. Sometimes he fasted, sometimes he sits on prickly announced receipt of food strewn feeding of birds to life, the general state of austerity like we hear sogrieved , yet for Him it was not a concern. After six years of ascetic practice in Tuyet Son , before and after, he only took the pursuit of the Unsurpassed Way as his ultimate goal . With the sacrifice that much was enough to give men more excited phenology, making people dumb, consider every grape wife up even so. Observe his vow : "Suppose the sun and the moon could fall to the ground, the snow- lord mountain could move from its original place, if I had not yet attained the fruit of right enlightenment , immersed in all things and brought my body in front of me. The ordinary man returned to the palace , determined that such a thing would never happen. Today we would rather jump into the fire pit fire burning hot , if not reach fruition finality that returned the palace , decided never had that happen. " The set even a resoluteHis locks are also typical for the virtue of intellectual and his powerful so. After attaining enlightenment for his disciples , the Buddha, depending on the basis of each person's level, gave teachings . His teaching never stops, even when silence makes disciples understand the meaning, it is rare indeed . Today we to before statues of Lord Shakyamuni bowed , observing the face aglow solemn contained seemed full of peaceful trade body, making us not from being interested glasses Be affectionate look forward to His Family households , verily for the enlightenment of upholding He deserves that. From the day he attained Bodhi until the age of 80, because of his career in teaching sentient beings, he often went everywhere without ever stopping, his back was never warm. He vagrant while in Magadha at Vaishali , while in Savatthi at Kapilavastu ... The teaching of the birth of his extremely zealous, than you cardinals contemporary none can be compared with . Even when he first became a monk, he never left the idea of spreading the Dharma for profit , rarely following human emotions in each country . Throughout his life, he has always been seen to be gentle with the middle path , free from all kinds of complicated problems . The expression that is not so " honest parties in which participants appear outside" stars. By the time he was about to enter Nirvana , from Ma Kiet Da to Vairocana in the middle of the road, he was seriously ill, and he felt that his transformation was about to end and he was close to leaving the world . Venerable Ananda saw that scene was sad and tearful . The Buddha taught that he should keep his mind calm and not cry. His words at that time were very profound and earnest. Then he turned west and went to the Tala forest outside the city of Kosina . Here he lay in a hammock under the Sala tree , and sent Ananda to gather his disciples to give him the final instructions. Throughout his life, he preached the Dharma , never tired of saving birth, never had the idea of ​​being discouraged. In the Di professor concludes: "Shakyamuni contradictory ni primal turning of the wheel of the five brothers Kieu ceiling , the last sermon of the Venerable Tu momentum canvas la , who has predestined of degrees are his goods degree . When he was at Tala Song Tho, about to enter Nirvana , it was about midnight without a sound . He briefly spoke for his disciples about the main points of the Dharma..." These were the last teachings of the Buddha . Lord Shakyamuni Thus ComeCareer Guru of the three worlds . When Buddha entering Nirvana , views everywhere silence first President , the above are the words a summary of the life of Buddha are passed down. Lesson 8 THE TENSION COAST AND STATUS Nirvana OF BUDDHA Buddha is respected by many people in society , but besides that, those who oppose him are not few. Among the most fierce opponents were still followers of Zen Buddhism, such as King A Sera of Ma Kiet Da . The king at first believed in Zen Buddhism, was close to Devadatta, and honored Deba Datda as his teacher. Devadatta although the disciples of Buddha, but usually the next presentation plotting to assassinate him. Among them , there are three outstanding things, at first , driving a big elephant to harm Buddha, then sending someone crazy to scold him , then climbing a high mountain with a large rock bucket to crush him, but all three times failed to achieve results. In the end, Devadatta claimed to be a great teacher , saying that the Eightfold Path of Buddhism is not the true path , only the five dharmas established by him are the true ways . The five dharmas of Devotional attainments are as follows. 1. Bhikkhus must wear chalk all their life . 2. Bhikkhus have to go begging for food for the rest of their lives . 3. Bhikkhus are only allowed to sit and eat once (after eating, get up and do not sit down to eat again). 4. Bhikkhus often have to sit in the middle of an empty field. 5. Bhikkhus are not allowed to eat fish, flesh, blood, etc. This year compared with the precepts of Buddha taking institutions stricter than ... people that are many beliefs . But soon the scheme was revealed, the Buddha's Dharma was still successful in the land of Ma Kiet Da . Later, A Xa The took over the area of ​​That Na Dai Tat to cumulate the old land of Ca Pi La , claiming to be the Minh Lord of Trung An , although he was extremely rebellious before , but later he took refuge in the heart , and became a foreign householder. powerful in the ranks of kings. If not by compassion compassionate immense and intellectual super Vietnam of Buddha reforming, a bar that never had been awakened so. The Buddha attained enlightenment for 49 years (with a 45-year theory) twice entered the city of Ba Ly Ba in the vicinity of Vairocana . He knew that he would not be in the world for long, so he gathered them in the city of Ba Ly Ba, received offerings. At the end of Thuan Da , at the same time, together with Ananda, he went to Tala, a member of the Ky Lien Chan Dai basin, and rested on a sick bed. At that time there was an old brahmin named Tuvardala in the locality who begged him to speak the Four Noble Truths . This was the last sermon of his life . Buddha entered Nirvana at the age of 80 on March 15, 2397 years (with the theory of 2839 years?). The great disciple, Dai Ca Lettuce , had gone to teach in another city at that time. The masses waited for him to return to celebrate the cremation ceremony . After tea ceremony , the kings of eight countries divided the relics and built an offering tower . Lesson 9 Testament considerate OF BUDDHA During the time when he was about to enter Nirvana , the Buddha spoke the last words of Dharma for his disciples . Those words of Dharma are fully recorded in the Migration Sutra . Today, every time we re-read the sutra , we can imagine the scene of Crane Forest , re-approach his grace and face , and see ourselves as participating in the final scene of his life . Contents of heresy are overs of words to , in which the Buddha has graciously reminding every disciple must take discipline to prevent and jewelry of his life. Yu He taught every disciple must reverence the precepts , no consciousness before sinking into the sensual world , so that the protection of the mind so as not to damage the Dharma . After many thoughtful instructions at the last moment, he taught: " Bhikkhus, regarding the four dharmas of suffering, practice, cessation, and the Way, if you have any doubts , you should quickly ask questions, do not doubt without asking. the decision . The Buddha repeated this three times, but none of them asked. Why so? for there is no doubt among them . Meanwhile Venerable A recruiter has long been observed in mind the mass that Buddhist transparency : "transparency Exalted moon can make warming, the sun can make the cold go but legal words to which He uttered not never change”. The Buddha again said: " Bhikkhus, monks, don't hold your heart to sorrow , if we stay in the world for one more life, every meeting will fall apart, meeting without disbanding is impossible. Things his own benefit and the benefit of others are all made in full. If we stay in life, nothing will happenWhat benefits . Those who have the ability to receive the salvation whether in heaven to place the human As hybrids are of degree . Who has not been of the then Tathāgata also work into causal acquisition of them later. From now on, my disciples should practice and propagate the Dharma . If we can do that, then the Tathagata 's dharmakaya will remain eternally imperishable . So you must know lifecapital is impermanent, there is a meeting, there is a separation , you should not embrace the sadness of the world generals are like that. The teacher must be diligent diligent soon demand liberation , bringing light intelligent insight to eradicate the darkness of ignorance. " Buddha because the disciples comforted comforting encouragement they initiate heart compassion endless for everyone . At that time, the disciples gathered around, through the Buddha's teachings , to prevent sorrow and sorrow , listening to his final teachings . Finally the Buddha said: "Stop! The teachers should be silent and should not speak anymore, the time is up. The Tathagata wants to pass away . These are the last teachings of the Tathagata." The sound is so reverent , even though a thousand years later we still hear His kind teachings . Above are paragraphs describe scene of death of the Buddha , can make those who later read back clearly know the heart of mercy he has for thousands of types of beings . Through which is enough to make ordinary we wholeheartedly embraced beings saint Shakyamuni so. When his golden body glowed with smoke filling the air, the gods threw flowers to make offerings like rain, beat the thunderous drums of the sky and went down together to the defilement. So when he passed away the birds animals scream bellowed piteously , every plant will turn white whole great earth were all shaken . The dialog minister when Buddha Nirvana is described above are true . But there is not a narrative like this : "There was an old monk on the bank of the Silver River to see his disciples shed tears , wholeheartedly teaching without difficulty but touching many people". Lesson 10 OVERVIEW OF SOME BASIC FEATURES ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF BUDDHISM India Buddhist Historical summary says: "Year Venerable Buddhist nirvana of sectarian given much is different, so we are very difficult to study to determine a precise . Now, for example, The Book of Saints is the most authoritative work that can be trusted . The number of dots in the countdown We holy Dictionary Register to find out about the time the Buddha attained Nirvana , or about 2397 years ago of Korea. After Buddha attained Nirvana soon, the time the disciples Buddha for a few issues , such as Buddha body concerned, Human body concerned, Space agency ... once recovery has views change , multiply that split into two sects are the Conservatives and the Progressives .
