Quy Son Book Review (Part 4).

"Why have you just come to the sex, immediately say we are monks."

From the Soraya-life on the monkhood is up to a bump, which is up to the product. When we finished the precepts, then we say monks, so what? What is the error of monks? What do you mean? He prevents the mind from chasing the general or giving birth to the ego.

I have not seen myself as a monk, the great teacher to eat on the front seat, that is not.New monkhood is only honor but the monks are not yet, so not worth the monkhood. He wanted to remind the monk to practice more to be worthy of the monks.

So the Dhammapada - product Bhikkhu, the Buddha said:

Rider,

Forbearance and head,

Enjoy meditation,

Single know enough,

Worthy to call monks. 

Buddha teaches monks are people who must control, control the hands and feet speech, the gestures of his actions, not let go. Enjoy in meditation, celibate and know enough that new to call monks.

Monks to mouth control,

No words, no high sewer,

When presenting the meaning,

Sweet words sweet

That is to control the mouth, always control the words do not have to say anything should be said as words, nor sew high, concealed. When presenting the meanings, the words are gentle, sweet.

Completely opposite matter,

No, my,

No grief, no sorrow,

Worthy monks.

Monks are not self-alignment, not sorrow, must be so worthy as monks. Monks also known as destroying evil, ie breaking the defilements, so new fear is also called Ghost.

I must break the negativity defies the self, for the nama and nama do not accept me, so there is no sorrow, the new fear, so new worthy monks.

The lawyer Dai Tri Chien, discussing the title monks:

- Sanskrit is a suffix (or translates as Enotics, or Secret-sôô), Chinese translation is Mendicant, that is in the law to correct, in addition to beg for food. Parents are the body line of human beings, but cut off friendship first. The bearded hair is the world's most important people also cut off. Oil inherits seven treasures are left like throwing trash.Top rank is like clouds. Abandonment of impermanence, want to look for the same root of all things, want to make the high, you must lower yourself lower. Stick the stick like the same dry gloves. Bring the other practitioners like broken pottery. Shoulder of the necrosis, is the torn shirt. The elbows are the same as the mortars. Memories in the body in the fourth row. Four continents are the playground; under the trees, between the two are the refuge. Vin's spare room leisure, according to the ancient mark of the Buddhas.

That is the true disciples of the Buddha, meeting the secular grace does not change.That is the real lady can beat the ghost, tearing up the net, receiving the ceremony to thousands of gold, it really is well. They are the field of beings, do not waste the deposit.The name of the mendicant is the same! "

Mendicants are begging. Inside the Buddha Dharma to modify his xinxing, outside beg to feed this body. Cut off the body affection for parents, bearded hair cut off. And wealthy people go out, then give up stuff like throwing waste grass. Or those in the top quarter, respected people, also see the position is no different than cloud. Like King Tran Nhan Tong, he left home and viewed the status of power unimportant.

"Want to make high, you must lower yourself lower," it is inversely proportional. Bring the bowl to look like broken pottery do not crave; dressed like a torn dress.

"Four y" here belongs to Human Four, not the French. Four kinds of people are four classes of people are trusted and deserve y only. First: the output of ordinary people, such as ordinary people in the output as the three steps, the fourth good base: the ovum, the ring, the first. Second: the level of momentum-complete, momentum-momentum, A-level, A-level. Those are four people who are worthy of refuge.

"Monks in the mound, under the tree as a refuge," does not matter in the place. In the past, the good deeds of the head-momentum under the tree, where the mound, in the cave. Should stay in the room, should go to the coat, not nostalgic, not important.

"Vin under the leisure of the left step Tam to follow the ancient mark of the Buddha," the way to liberation. Meet the secular grace unchanged.

The name of the monk or monk is like that. Here, he commanded the newly ordained monk has not declared me here monks, must be about to sit on. That's not good enough.

Here, Quy Son Son reminds the cultivator to be humble, not arrogant and arrogant will lose profit.

"Consumption of credit, consumption of ordinary things, do not know where to think from where to bring, also said that 'natural things should be worshiped.

Say that this monks and consumption of credit but also said that natural reason should be worshiped, because I was monks should they worship it! It is manifesting the arrogant mind, without considering the cause from which these things are.

Quy Son Son reminded our arrogant mind has not yet revealed the birth of the life of the monk and the object of the ordinary. Where do you know that the three Jewels believe in the Three Jewels, believe in the monks, so they look to eat and bring to make offerings to us. Because they think we are the field to plant, not theirs, to force them to offer. If our virtue is not enough, is it easy for credit? It's not easy.

So when we give offerings to ourselves, we are like knives; They come to grinding, ie blessing. The more grinding their knife is, but the more we rub away, the more blessed our own diminishing, very scary, not the natural, where should be happy and then born naturally.

"Eat regular things," the common thing is their common object, not our own, which we eat.

There are four types of cylinders:

1. Common room : Kitchen, warehouse, etc. are not allowed to go, because of the general.

2- The Four Pillars:  The Daily Means Provide Them Up.

These two types belong to the rising monks, the monks of the places are also in it, not the temple itself. So they know the monks are coming, they are also part, must be treated properly not to be.

3- Current money:  Monk's current money, that is at the temple.

4- The present money:  The objects that the monk passed away, also belongs to the current monk. So the money is not the same as their own, so it can not be used for sexual purposes. Therefore, the use of the pillars are very careful, not smart, the cause and effect can not be measured.

As the story Master Tu Bao sick, false attendant ginger little kitchen to use drugs. But the attendant down his request to keep the stock, not to have to buy money to buy their new rise, not for freedom. You know, it is wrong to bring money to buy,  that is to keep the law.

If we are narcissism, then the Zen master does the right thing. Do not rely on the person you want to go to the kitchen to get something. The more that, the more they are usually, want to get something to get it is not even right.

As long as you want to eat instant noodles to take to the room to eat, that stole their rise. This small job also has a bad cause and effect, so it must be prevented. When we learn to recognize the rules to live properly, if we do not understand the law, the rules to make comfortable, many times being prevented birth and afflicted.

In the past, there was a cause and effect story:

There is a rising to the kitchen stove for some wood to cook the dye, but do not ask it should be like theft. After death in the hell in the fire was burned legs, burn skin.

One of his brothers, walking in the field, suddenly felt like a temple, and there was a tingling in it. When asked, the monk said: "This is hell, in the past I have that fault that now is this crime. If you are a parent, you will be compensated for the part of the firewood you have collected. "

These are causalities.

Therefore, for their objects, often used when used with great care, not to use natural comfort because of the general. Every meal of the monk's ordinance must be practiced in order to show the weight of the offering that we are being subjected to with extreme caution. They pay attention to the benefactors, not spending comfort, for their duty is to bring offerings. Not so!

At the time of Sui in China, there was a monk in Silla (Korean) who was a virtuous person. Many of these individuals make regular offerings of a close-knit house for about 10 years. Thanks to the blessing, the family's fortune is more abundant and richer, and soon enough, they offer their offerings without sacrifice. When this old Zen master passed away, the family also followed the law and buried it.

A few days later, in the garden of this family has a dry tree suddenly grows a special kind of mushroom. The family see the picking on the soup, the taste of mushrooms like meat, so everyone likes to eat. And so, every day to use the soup to bring. Especially it sprouts regularly enough to provide this family.

Some time later the neighbor knew, then there was a person in the neighborhood, at night the wall clogged theft. New knife to cut suddenly heard the tree sounded out the people say:

- Who cut my meat? I do not owe you debt.

This person scared her, but also calmly asked:

- Who are you?

There are answers:

- I was the monk before receiving the offerings of this family, because the virtue is less thin, but the owner is the homeowner with respect to the contribution of indispensable karma, now come here to pay debts. He may be asking me to return the money to my employer and I will be released.

He immediately remembered the past saw this monk back and forth here, he strangled and then lamented. He told the owner of the incident. The homeowners heard the crying and falling away. Later, the hostess confronted the mushroom reparation and said the exemption does not pay anything. The neighbor then went to ask for a hundred jars of rice brought to the owner, since then in the garden no longer grow mushrooms.

This story is narrated in Thich Mon Tu Hai Luc. The author said that  this monk named Đạt Nghĩa, age 80, to temporarily shelter the mountain I was. Because of the virtue of this person, I also often provide medical clothing for the monk Dat Nghia. This monk feeling offerings to him should be in front of me sad cry and then told this story and said: "Another life is sure to cut meat to the teacher."

The story reminds us to reflect on ourselves, believe or not believe it depends on each person. But be careful, caution, do not overestimate cause and effect. Because there is no reason to justify the sin of causality. Consequently, as the consumption of the pillars, we have to be very careful, do not superficial life without worry.

That is what here to remind, the monk has nothing that hurts the consumption of credit, consumption of often abnormal natural comfort, and said that they are monks then they have the obligation to bring Do not have the thoughts!

"Then eat the head of the gas station, just talk the whole world junk food."

Ask a monk, eat the group of three groups to talk about the story or secular, sometimes talk about marketing or the five things entertainment outside the world, nothing to do with the practice. then how the target of the master! Then discuss the table back, say through the back of a quarrel, birth defilements; or the talk about the other person, the one who is annoying, the other is hateful, then the listener tells the other the birth of afflictions. That is the business, not smart is to bear the consequences of his karmic retribution. As I say the other person will not take long to retrieve other people say bad words, called causality.

This is something that people are susceptible to, because sadly sitting alone, should find two or three people sitting talking to play. Right to sit alone to get business to gather more intellectual seed, or sit back to his meticulous work, re-examine the mind is better practice. So instead of telling a secular story, it's better to say less than one sentence or say one more sentence about Buddhism. If there are no more words about Buddhism, we say less, then there will be free time to see business, meditation should be more useful.

For example, it is good to talk ethics at first, but at the end of the day, one has to catch up with another. Make sure that when you sit talking for a while without falling into the talk of the world, talk to the real money is respectable, worth it! So here Quy Son Son uses whip for a tree. That book! The book is a whip, a whip for a whip last pain!

Master Toan was born when he was born unlike other people. Everyone was born crying oa oa, and he was born special no cry, grow up not say anything, so people in the neighborhood called "dumb". One day, his family took him to the temple, when he saw the Buddha, he spoke.

Parents are happy to ask:

- Uh! You say it! How silent a few years did not say anything?

He replied:

- I hear the daily answer, most of it is ordinary secular things, so I do not say.

As a kid who knows how to say that, and we sometimes want to silver but not sure how to say that. Those are truly respectful, we do not regret it.

These are the examples that we learned in the first instance, to make a correction to remind ourselves.

The more the mind learns, the more learned it becomes. Do not think that the things I learned now do not need to learn anymore, not that! There are things we have already learned, but when we learn again, there are more new things, more book reminders and benefits.

In short, people want to try their books, should reduce the three groups of seven, talk about jargery junk waste of time in vain, sometimes bring his genius, loss of virtue.

Like Zen monk in Quang Hieu pagoda. They were born in Vinh Gia, at a young age also have serious personality, not like the noisy place (that is the baby Bodhi available from baby). The father found it strange to let go home.

After leaving the family, Van Phong Van Phong in the village to compete in the monastery, living frugally, often sitting not lying, eating a meal, not wearing silk, all year only wearing a loaded shirt.

Here is the achievement. Because in simple pictures, the mind is busy waiting for more.Often sitting is not sitting usually meditate, do not wear good clothes just put loaded all year round so no worries. And we now have many needs, want anything must be comfortable, lacking is not tolerable, to provoke temperament that is not good.

After, he went to Germany Thieu Duc. Professor asked:

- Three realms not legal, where to find the heart? Four capital not, Buddha where the head? So where do you look to see the Sangha?

Brother replies:

- Today defeated him.

He said:

- What?

New monk flipped out the incense stick out, then right that the National secretly received.

One day, you see the Flower Adornment to the paragraph: "Where the body is not in place, where there is no place attached, where France has no place. The past is gone, the future has not arrived, the present is empty. Right then he suddenly entered the course.

We see the ancient people are very confidential, always keep the mind so that when reading the business mind is always special. I am going to spend more than 10 days.

 After 10 days, he found the body in the morning gently light, clear the deep color.

Trung Y Vuong heard the virtues of the teacher admired, invited to Thanh Thai pagoda in Viet Chau. But he does not like to work, usually just sit still in the room as the import.

One day, in the monastery see two monks standing on the banister in the main hall talking, the guard angel, standing listening to the ears look reverent. After a while, I saw the devil coming in to scold him, sweeping away his footprints like scorn.

After his departure, he came to inquire about the two monks at that time and said something like these happen. Two new real friends said that initially two people discussed the Dharma, but then all the Buddha Dharma talk and then talk about the secular, so that the new demon spit, sweeping sweep footprints look scornful cheap.

It is the experience that we learn from the past and remember to check yourself carefully. Because we do not know the surrounding, especially in the colon are the legal guardian gods or the legal guardian for the cult. If our vows are legal, lawful, the good deeds reverent guard very well. On the contrary, the birth of the spirit of secularism that these gods leave, the devil will come, but the devil is not good for us. So do not think we do but nobody knows.

When he heard about it, he said:

- There is no such thing as still, so that the master of the drum up the road to say that in vain?

Since then, his life has never discussed the secular.

When the president, tea-spit finished, the tongue is still soft, color like red lotus does not have decay.

This is a lesson that reminds us to be very careful about the mouth, so we talk less, less talk junk.

Here, Quy Son Son reminded the monk to avoid the head of the secular talk, making the mind in vain, the damage to his virtue, causing demons to despise. At the same time, human beings are unhappy, are not good.END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTENMENT.VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.11/11/2017.
