Quy Son Book Review (Part 5)
"Then a happy race, not happy is the cause of suffering."
That is because ignorance, crazy island so we keep worrying about the joy of the time to suffer the suffering of thousands of years, sabotage or not. For example, happy to eat delicious, nice to be at home high door wide, sit in the car for the pleasure that go here, or fun to consume comfort. It is the joy of thought, contrary to the moral and then suffering long suffering without good. So this is what he said is a happy race, not happy is the cause of suffering. That is the temporary fun, temporary, happy end will be suffering, must know carefully.
Formerly there are monks named Huệ Man, They are in the Book Pagoda in Ich Chau period. As a young monk who did not worry about spiritual cultivation, just like the trade of exchange. Also know that should be kept in charge of the warehouse, and often take their own consumption. Taking care of their fabric store, he also reduced the means.
Then he fell ill, then fell into the abdomen of a buffalo to pay debts. When the buffalo born, its shape is large bright, the horns are beautiful, so everyone loves to feed their own. At that time, the buffalo had to pull the bamboo cart to the side of the mountain, and it was exhausting and exhausting. At that time, there was a monk in Mien Chau who, unlike ordinary people, was on a paragliding trip on the way to Ischia, so he exclaimed: "This is a human, not a buffalo! "
He grabbed the buffalo horns and asked:
- What does it look like?
At that time, the buffalo tears tears down. We know that everyone is very merciful, told his disciples Hue Man. Practitioners should be together to bring money to redeem the buffalo, then buffalo to stop eating a few days and then die.
It is a story to show clearly that a happy race, not happy is the cause of suffering.Before being cut and then spend comfort, but know the cause and effect clearly!
Listen here and then we see how much their consumption is to be careful, do not let as Quynh Son said here, do not have to enjoy a fun race in time and then suffer long after This, regret not catch up! Remember the "happy is the cause of suffering," now let loose for fun to wear, do not think about later suffering many lives called repentance is not timely. Only the joy of defilement, the joy of enlightenment to live with the true dharmakaya, that is the true joy, must choose that joy.
"Many pursue the ceiling, never wake up again."
I wake up people do not love anymore, so say many chasing naked never wake up again. How many lives have passed because of delusions of running to the ceiling so new rolling, sank samsaric birth suffering in three realms up and down, to today that have not enough?
We are afraid of fear, because we have no celestial eye, or not have to remember all life was not so afraid. If you really have to remember your past lives, you will be afraid. At that time there is more desire, but to take care to overcome. At present, we also have good charms to know how to cultivate, listen to the words promptly reminded to wake up carefully and wake up again.
Thus, today we are ordained as the followers of the emancipation. Exiting the ceiling is beyond the ceiling. Yet not awake? What else? This is the point that you want to remind.
We have many chasing the nakedness, slavery under the love, loss of freedom. It is like being guilty of a guilty good where to go, then go there, so there is fun in it? So we cultivate to reinvent ourselves, not to enslave it, to open the yoke of slavery, to live freely for freedom.
When we look back, when we are attracted to love, we lose all energy, lose all wisdom, weakness so weak that only to bow to it and then how to wear. At that time, no one said anything but said not hear, think is hard but it is so weak. It is a must to turn to have a strength to rise, not in that direction.
He reminded us that we have the power to move forward, not weak to lead it. This warning is for people to pursue the ceiling. That means learning to turn back like the teacher Thuan in Bach Duong once said: "If people think of the director like thinking about love, it is certainly the Buddha has long ago."
To think of the news is to follow the ceiling, led by it; If you think about the same religion, then the practice will soon.
But what do cultivators now think about? Interruptions flicker. New thinking about the little bit is to prevent being dragged thinking about the ceiling should soon forget the direction. Because of long-term suction, eat deep in the person should not be deliberately remember but also remember. The more you practice, the stronger and the more you become, just like writing, once a bold statement. Every time it was given to him, it was recalled. Now here is the turning back to think about the direction as well as thinking about the bare not remember but also remember, then quickly enlightened. So, we have to switch back, cut off the charm, not follow it.
In Studying, we must exclude the seeds, not the seeds. Bringing the seed into it, it sowed into the savage, like seeds of grass seed that are not visible in the earth, but it rains down and it sprouts. Prompt to all how clever each person has a strong desire for love as well as desire for love, thus ensuring the path to achieve his direct not difficult.
So, do not ever advocate on this one, to say it straight to say I want, I like, to know honestly get that error, then know that crazy island that transfer. So when learning these words wholeheartedly, deeply touched by his words, the more you read, the more new, not the old.
"The time has sunk, the five months gradually, over-use, the more profound benefits. Many years do not think to let go, the more storage capacity to maintain the illusory.
He said that the monk who let the time pass by five months, and then to worry about life, the benefits of more and more nutrients do not leave, only the heavy pole, just like the elephant mired. The elephant was heavy and it went into a muddy place so it sank.And as soon as the more it sinks, the more you die, the more you die!
So, too, if you do not know beyond, rise up and let it sink like an elephant bog down, then more and more fall down to death. That is many years to think not let go, the more loaded the more and more weight can not be freed. Therefore, the liberation speech that more and more tied up, not see release at all.
We check back to see the shame. New arrivals at the temple to carry bags with some clothes, at a time carrying the car is not over yet! So here Quy Xo remind people to know the need to be awake, do not worry too much benefit is just busy because of this illusory body only, not meaning what. If there is no body, there is nothing to worry about? Give it to him, give it a go, give it a go, give it a happy, this is also because of this illusory color, because there is nothing to worry about.
But what about this illusory color then? What is left? It's just that the empty stomach is empty, does not mean anything! So when one looks at the wolf to remember carefully: the one that we dearly care for, the tit for a long time, the last is just that bad. Actually, it touches the eyes, but does not hide. Will our life be just so much?
As the story of Zen Master Thach Song Cung, who inherited according to Zen Master Hoang Tri - Chief Justice in Heaven. During their stay, he passed all the big and small positions in the Institute. One day, he came back to visit his mother, his mother is not a mother is not trivial.
Visiting mother visit, the mother asked:
- You go to the cost of capital because of the birth of parents, but often because of the master, if you do not understand the cause of the cause will cause us in the gold stream.
She reminded me to go to the monastery because of the parents, the people in the temple do the bosses ..., also know if not understand the cause and effect will cause her to stay in the gold stream.
He said:
- For the ordinary, you do not dare to contemplate. Though it is like a lamp, a torch is shared by everyone, and you do not care for me.
The mother said:
- But when you cross the river, can you keep your feet wet?
A lightweight sentence but weighs a thousand pounds, not fit. What a beautiful mother.Such a mother, must have such a child. This mother loves her and reminds her very respectable.
Do we hear these words have sweat removed? Heard her words "You cross the river that is not wet feet yet?", Only then that I see sweat sweat rather than medium.
That is wading through the stream, not sitting on the boat. Sitting on the boat from the wet easy legs, but wading through the river to keep feet wet, how to keep? That is hard.Consciousness question is born mind?
We live to serve all but not the mind, it is not easy. This work is not a lifetime. A mother's gentle voice that we do all her life is not finished. What about us today? Sometimes when you sit in the house, you do not need to wade through the stream, but also wet your feet. These are the places we have to thoroughly experiment to eat deep into the heart to wake up. Each person needs to be very alert to his or her self, not for the sake of material gain, resulting in the death of monks. That is the thing to remember.
When it comes to contemplation, we have been deceived by this zipper so much that it is not good. It requires one, the other, the other, to force it in the direction it has to create sin. Finally out of breath, he left himself outside the graveyard, and karma and guilt forced him to die after receiving painful pain! So we have not got eyes, that is blind!
Quy Son dangling a whip too strong, but do not know whether anyone here yet? To the province that care, not follow the love and then buried under it, it is regrettable!
These are the heartfelt words of sincerely hearted. The more we hear to the bone marrow, so be sure to take care of tu, not think of anything else.
Master teaches, premonition monks: "Progressive self, tam often not enough.
Here you mention the Master, the Buddha. Buddha is only a guide, the rest is we have to go, must practice to have practical benefits, not completely relied on the Buddha outside, so he called the Buddha as a teacher.
He reminded the Buddha to teach the monks are to repair his body and mind to practice progress, how to achieve the liberation of enlightenment, that is important. As for the ordinary things such as eating, wearing, sleep, always know enough, not too demanding, less demand as much as possible time to progress as well. So, the Buddha taught monks are pretentious tam often.
Monks in the true sense as the Buddha taught is the Mendicant, ie begging. Buddhist bowl to go begging begging is called gas, which means that the bowl is not too large, only the food just use their own, but not over.
When begging, get something to eat. Every day please be full, eat enough, every day asking for the lack of food must also be lacking. That is when the alms to the distant people are in need, or many people begging, people give less, not eat enough, also bear without demanding.
Buddha must beg for class, go home, not to choose the rich to leave the poor. When you are ready to use, do not apply for two bowls. That is enough to eat.
When they wear cloth, they throw them away, pick up clothes, wash and dye them and wear; Sometimes the fabric is wrapped around dead bodies thrown outside the graveyard, picking up to wear. So there is no greed. The prosperity of the beginning-momentum must perform this well as well.
Sleeping too, the Buddha taught the sleep of former monks do not have as comfortable as we are now, sometimes you sleep in the mound, or forest. Later, there is a monastery, but the building is simple, not willing to build on their own. But not in a place where housing often changes because of not being attached to the place. Thanks to that, the ancient people only to progress the religious practice, so they soon attained enlightenment. Since all the time is always applied elaborately practiced, there is no time to take care of food, sleep, sleep.
Now the monk is now demanding many needs that demand according to the ego. So that the Patriarch reminded the Buddha that monks have to take care of themselves, walking the monk, eat, sleep, sleep must know enough, not too demanding. Taking the problem of birth, death, suffering, the base work, that is the key.
We read that the ancient wisdom of spiritual practice when there is no time to cut nails, no time to wipe his nose, they are so careful. Looking back at the monk now more anxious to care for this body should take time to study a lot. Check out how much time a person has spent on food, clothing, sleep?
Day 24 hours, sleep 5, 6 hours, it is reduced. Sleeping at 10h to 3h15 is less than five hours, plus a six-hour nap for six hours. Every day we sleep 6 hours, a quarter of the time. By the way, we spent the fourth part of our life. If people live 60 years, then sleep for 20 years. So we have wasted 20 years doing nothing! That's just sleep talk.
In the morning, lunch time is more than an hour, plus washing dishes, and a little afternoon for two hours to eat. Then, bathing, washing together is more than an hour.Then go out and talk for an hour, it's a third of the time.
A life of sixty years wasted decades. Two, three decades for eating, wearing, sleeping, but still not enough! That is about cultivators.
If you are a person, how much time do you have to worry about eating, partying, watching TV, the press? So check the time left for human life is not much!
That's so good to see the regret, but not normally see all. But we do not know how much time, living a little more to have more time for yourself to practice is more precious, this is what the Buddha taught very carefully.
The Buddha created 12 virtues-momentum for the ascetic decision. The head of the family-momentum must sleep the tree, where the mound, the day to eat a meal, old clothes ragged ...
Talk about the day to eat a meal but only eat the food in the bowl to please. As you go to get in the bowl, when the pagoda is more people are not used, only eat in the bowl of his request. If there are only white rice that day to go to the headquarters must eat white rice, not eat more Buddhist dishes, so carefully.
Eat finished to stand up, do not put anything into the mouth, as if that day. But not eating out to see what people give what is delicious to eat a little more, not so. Twelve happy moment - momentum must keep so, so the tu easy to liberate, easy to direct.
Today we check that we are much more than the ancients. But still not enough, sometimes even demanding. Check back to see how our moral direction ?! Know how to be ashamed to reduce demand!
The monk who has no education, no worries, always worry about this need, the end of that need is to nourish the bad news, but nothing has been created, then must carry.New frightened shudder, fear for myself to take what to pay for the donor here? So, this is to remind us!
In the story of Dac Lam Tuyen Thanh Dao Ca, Truc Lam recounted his life when he was in the mountains? As a king, as the most people in the world, but when you go to live is very simple: Do not go kao, do not go horseback riding, clothe, drink spring water, eat food on the mountain. Say:
Bring it on,
The scene is empty,
Immaculate practice,
The paper is oak.
That is to take refuge in the deserted forest scene monkhood practice; Wear a piece of paper or a rough cloth and patch it up! Until "This body does not manage, hungry meal". And we are now mostly religious people, then there is a need to demand too much, compared to the tsunami they see the appointment?
Study, we need medicine Buddha's teaching, well known enough to spend time with moral progress, that's "the main duties of the ordained" , means little to know enough, not demanding needs Many to take time to practice their own.
In the Diary, the Buddha said: "Monks and novices, life expectancy food as drug. That is to teach the monks when eating food should be considered as medicine should not be so engrossed.
" Whether good or bad, there is no more mind, only to help the body out of hunger." Eating is like taking medicine to eradicate hunger, not anything, not on that the birth of the mind deliciously different, add is the more unhappy.
" As a bee nectar sucking, only suck the pistil without damaging the hymen and incense.Monks, too, are offered to self to rid the suffering, not much demand to lose the good of people. To be worshiped by Buddhists is to help us except the hunger and thirst, not to take much to lose the good of people. It's about eating.
As for sleep, the Buddha said: "Monks and nuns! In the day, concentrate on, early and near morning also do not ignore. In the middle of the night chanting to destroy the evil industry, to increase the good karma, not because of the coast of grace to make life a bed through, nothing. The Buddha taught the monk, the mind must be diligent practice French heal not let time pass. That morning, in the middle of the night, near the morning also take time to practice. Cultivators must have the right view, such as eating, wearing, sleeping as a temporary means, helping the body survive to practice, not to care for it, anxious to eat, sleep.
Here, Quy Son Son reminded the Buddha taught to remind the monks want to progress to repair themselves, is often not enough tam.
Also " The for this because such passionate endure, day after month the first moment was silver."
People of the life in accordance with their love, do not know the temporary fake of this body. Currently temporarily borrowed it without understanding so new because it is interested in eating, wearing, sleep, and forget the precious time passed by not find it, look back at the hair is silver is not good. When it comes to returning to its true face, it is the lower body and then the graveyard, so is not it?
Checking every day, we take care of it for this stuff, it wants to eat something in the same direction it; He also slept with him in the afternoon, but eventually he returned his true face to the wolf. If you go away but also lucid, looking back to see the awakening consciousness or something? But it's not easy, it's the career!
Right now, we are wise to see other people know you. Seeing people finally end up in the cemetery outside the graveyard, I know myself. The truth is not touching but not seeing, but why do people keep ignoring? That is the point that the Patriarchs remind us to remember, not absorbed in eating, wearing, sleep. Who knows how long life? How long? And how healthy are you? So it is better to try to make use of the time it is here to progress.
In the Dhammapada, for example, the Buddha ordered the monk to eat and then worry about not knowing that only seven days to die, so the Buddha came to the scene, said the verse:
Oh! teach not to love,
Insects, snails, mussels,
Nesting in impure,
Pleasure or embrace.
Have not been hurt,
That mind like sick child,
Before the accident,
Come back to sleep.
"The poster has not heard the beast, must broadly ask the prior information. He said that the monk only needs rice.
That is the new study after, not only the intention to cultivate religious career, then to inquire diligently to advance to know the path. The monastery is not clear but not afraid to ask, worry about eating, sleep, where will the religious life go?
So, Quy Son Son whipped a whip to wake up: "He said that he came out here is just to eat rice, dress or not?" To go to the pagoda must also be to eat rice clothes to wear! It is a whip for a whip, do not know if anyone heard the pain or not?
So each person has to check himself out for what? Is it because the rice is wearing clothes? They are reminded that they have to go home to practice, pray for salvation, not because the food to eat clothes are different people life!
A Thai monk once said, "In the days of Zen monks Ajahn Mun and Ajahn Sao, the life of the monks was very simple. It's less complicated, less hassle as it is today. " Around the middle of the 20th century, he lamented that, in our time, now is the 21st century, the century of civilized material.
"On that day, the monks had little outside work and only performed some form of ritual." Now the practitioner contacted many outside, the form of rituals and parties, the festival is enough, it takes a lot of time.
"They live in certain uninhabited forests, where they can devote themselves to meditation, where they are busy. At that time people rarely see the expensive items that compared to today it was a trivial thing. " In the past there was no such thing as money, no television, refrigerator, fan ... life is very simple. The life of the monks at that time was simple, to the point that there was almost nothing to own, so nothing to much.
"The teachers took bamboo pipes for drinking water, and made other ordinary items for themselves. Sometimes lay people come to visit. Everyone is happy with what they have and nobody expects or expects anything else. They lived and lived with the breath of meditation. " Live with the breath of meditation, not with living things.
"The teachers have accepted life with so many difficulties, lack thereof. Medication is not available as it is now.
When someone has malaria to ask for medicine, the teacher often says, "You do not need to take medicine, try to maintain the practice is also a cure." Thus, all are medicinal plants whose roots have been rooted and grown in the forest. " That means everyone is a medicine for yourself, because there is medicine to drink, simple life like that!
The practitioner is now full, but because too full should be weak patience.
"In such an environment, the teachers used perseverance and endurance. They do not complain, worry when sick, sick. Today only a little headache, runny nose a little you may have used drugs or have to go to the hospital. He said that this situation is like ours today, but more so.
And dressing up " Sometimes the teachers have to walk from ten to twelve kilometers to beg for alms." We are at the place of cooking, and you have to walk for miles to get alms!
"In the morning, you can depart at sunrise and return about 10 or 11 noon. The alms are usually not much, can be a little rice or sticky, a little salt or some kind of fruit.Sometimes only rice without food is not a problem. Life is so natural, no one complains about lack or tiredness of illness. They not only do not complain but learn how to protect themselves. They practiced in the forest with all their patience and endured the many dangers lurking around. They have to deal with the many wild and aggressive wildlife that live in the jungle, as well as the austerity of the mind and body in the practice of head and shoulders for a painting. The patience and tolerance of the monks at that time was wonderful. Today, the situation forces us to face directly with many problems, compared to before, people only know how to walk, then there is the carriage period, but these masters do not have ride horse".
Compared with the past, people know walking and then progress to the use of vehicles called pull cars, which are carriages, carts.
"And now people use modern cars, so the desire and ambition is increasing. To this day, if the car does not have an air conditioner, people will not use it. They can not go if the car does not have air conditioning. This shows that human virtue and patience become weaker and weaker. The norms of meditation and practice are becoming increasingly loose and serious; To the extent that we feel meditators nowadays only follow their own ideas and hobbies. Then when the class goes ahead they tell the life of the old days, it seems like you are listening to a myth or myth. "
That is what they told us to compare with the life of the current cult, to reduce without demanding too much and then forget about the practice of his.
Remember the words of Quy Xo Son want to remind: "If people are only passionate about eating, wearing, sleep do not stop, the day after a short time, It was said before, that the ordained only demanded rice. Today we check whether we have learned the only fun or not, then go out for religious or ordained because of rice? It is not good to be rebuked by the rebels, it is shameful!
"The Buddha first created the law to open up new entrants, rules dread, clean as snow ice. "Harmonizing," nudge the first, small law to pick up all bad things.
The monk reminded the Buddha of the law to open up new people to religion. Laws that are nuns, including the posture and precepts, is the beginning for newcomers to practicing to prevent sin, so called to correct all bad things.
At first, the mind of a new person like a wild buffalo, if there is no restraining order, it is clothed in grass. Therefore, it is necessary to know the precepts to keep them safe, so do not underestimate the rules and dignity.
The samsara must learn 24 postures and 10 precepts. Monks have 250 sex, 3,000 posture and eight etiquette. Keeping three thousand dreadful, eight etiquette, as if each gesture of action must be done in control, not let go lung, wear rough. So three thousand dread, eight etiquette is that every gesture, every movement is living under the law, there is control. Do not think that meditators do not need the form of posture, while the mind is still uncontrollable mind, do not worry about the form, the posture is more coarse, more when we Deceiving myself that person is not good.
Just as I was in the beginning to memorize the recitation of the verses in the Buddhist monks and practical applications in the action, found to have a lot of awakening. Today, he also often go to work as a slack, tuition to go to the ordination of the law but not sure to use.
Our father reminds us in every action is to read the meaningful post with that action. As I wake up and walk down to the bed, I read a verse, wash my face, read a verse, go to the toilet and read a verse.
As soon as we wake up want to step down to read the shelves without hurry to set foot down, and we often go down the cliff, making people lie on their feet, it is lack of suspense. At the toilet too, that is, each action has a reading to help the mind to return to mindfulness, support for concentration later. Therefore, monks have a great benefit, not small. I do practice meaningful, have clear results.
If we practice with a sincere mind, it helps the mind to ease the concentration. If the action is comfortable, into the rough and the mind is also lung. Now look back to the majority of fraternity is somewhat slightly omitted about the majesty no less. Even the great grown up is also missing, this is the thing to revise.
For example, monks just go running, lose the posture, then the mind has no control. If you recall, just want to step foot, you must remember that the monks must have a posture. Then monks that sit cross-legged, then the mind is where to go, or the road crowded with the secular or the eyes glanced east, glance that the majesty is also absent also practice, there are also Practice, then have control.
According to the law, the monks have to look down without looking out, not looking back, glancing east, glancing west. Nowadays, the vehicle should have a lot of vehicles, so the master of the car must also have the majesty of the teacher, so whoever goes with me, I often talk about it.
Because I am a teacher, running a car must have a different style from the secular, ie the status of the cultivator. I have the charm of sitting on the car by many riders, as well as fraternity monks and novices as well as other people. I find that the people who run their car are cooler, more loving than a cultivator. So we have to know to have control ourselves.
If the Buddha was alive, he would also have to do the law for those who listen to cell phones, the drivers, so surely, because the Buddha did not have such things, he did not rule.
This Quy Xo reminded that the Buddha pre-fabricated laws to open up new entrants, have the rule dread clean as snow ice. Then there are the "offenses", which are used to keep your mind open, and to prevent sin.
"Just hold", the word is just stop, hold is hold. Stop not doing it is morality. For example, we are not killing is the morality. No lie is morality.
The "offense", as the offense. Lying is a crime, calling it a crime.
We must communicate these spells to guard the precepts; What to do is to sin, to know to stop. If not, many times broke the law or arguments for defense anymore. Therefore, they reminded the monk must learn to learn pine. That's about Thanh Van.
For the Bodhisattva is sometimes stop is a violation, but the refreshing is maintenance.For example, if one is suffering, one does not save, the other is helping. We need to understand these spells to do the right thing.
"Each small law, in order to correct all bad things," that is, monks have to keep 250 precepts, each to prevent a mistake that is correcting a bad thing.
Understand then, you have to learn the rules dread, the rules for smooth, so that no mistake is not good. However, we also need to wake up to keep our mind, which is the main. The precept is to keep the body, but the root is to keep the mind as the main place.
In short, the first step in the direction of the law is the barrier to prevent sin, so the monk is not despised.
"Where the law school has not come to question, how high dhamma means how to be clear?"
That is where the law school did not come to school, the foundation of the discipline is not clear, again learn to dance to the French upper leagues are afraid of being empty, be careful!
France means higher means only for the ultimate truth. Quy Son prevent those who say the shot, the basis of precepts are not clear, and many mistakes that go to say that subliminal reason that it is meditation on the mouth only!
See in the Ngu Lu story about Chi Feng in Hoa Nghiem Pagoda Ngu Van Mountain. One day, he went to Ph? Ng Hien to sit down and suddenly the god kneeled in front.
Asked:
- Who are you?
He said:
- I am the guardian world.
Asked:
- I worry about my previous offenses, do you know?
God answered:
- What are you guilty of, only a small fault!
Asked:
- What is the error?
God answered:
- The washing of the bowl is also the object of the master, the teacher often should not be so.
After that, the gods are gone.
From then on, he took water to wash dishes.
In the past, when you eat from the bowl, eat the dishes and drink them. Unlike people, eat to pass, drink tea with another cup. Every time we eat rice is eaten in the bowl and drink, called the cost of the donkey afraid to beat the donkey.
Here, the deity told the only error to him is eaten and the dishwasher is not empty. Many times in the temple to eat plenty of food, and then take care of indiscriminate littering.So the old two Han Son, the Dac Reincarnation of Bodhisattvas Van-enemy, Pho Hien in Quoc Thanh pagoda, want to warn the monks in the temple, so the general appearance like the rest, at the pagoda Wait for the monks finished eating the kitchen to take food left over and wash the filter to remove the bamboo tube to eat. They are the implicit reminders for the monks should know the savings of the patron. This is a scrupulous reminder for the kitchen, must know to be careful!
The above is the Quy Son To remind us not to overlook the precepts. And remember that although the small things that the gods see, do not think you do not know. Many times in the room closed carefully, then eat secretly not know where nobody knows, but god knows. Just start a thought is God knows and do not say anything to do. As the story of the two he raised standing on the railing talk secular, demon devils to rub the foot also demon knows. We must always be careful, do not think you do not know, that is what they want to remind.
In summary of this paragraph, Quy Quy Son warned that the religious can not ignore the precepts, must take that as a platform to move forward. Do not think meditation reading, see them hear a sentence immediately and then easily think no need to learn anything. Before that, they have to spend a lot of hard work, but books do not burn all.So I have to study.
"Unfortunately, a life to pass, after repentance hard to keep up."
He exclaimed to the faithful not to study properly, thinking only of the material enjoyment, dress, sleep, nourish this body so that the date passes without benefit. in the direction. When the ephemeral arrives, repentance is not forthcoming! The last time that can be pulled back, but the big age, health decline at that time also want to not like.So reminded not to have missed the precious time of their own, not smart, unfortunately the life of the past, after repentance hard to keep up!
This I have witnessed, not to say. Before Hanh Ve died in Changchun around 1993, only 39 years old, young. Before the priest in the city, as well as the story outside the caravan, after thanks to the coast to meet the Master of Buddhist monks to study in Ching Cheng. After the illness is severe, near the imminent loss, the teacher in the temporary loss is in the Lam Chieu Nirvana Changshu. When I was not lost, I occasionally visited, once he said that it is sad to see the late Superior, when young still in pain to waste time on the right place, now know the tu is a bit late. Then it is said to remind all to do well, do not let a bed of repent and repent soon enough.
"The teachings have never crushed, the color of human beings do not enlightenment? Then high to high age, belly belly high heart, not close to you healthy, just a horizontal spread, arrogant ".
Long time, Quy Son Son whipped each whip, every whip for the province.
Above is the whip for a whip to warn the precepts do not know, leapfrog, but here the charge of doctrine is not clear. Tu do not worry about studying the catechism of the story somewhere, to finally understand what? Or be a little complacent as enough, do not smart fall into the disease.
Zen Buddhism, though, says that "no scripts, foreign teachings," that is not written, outside the teaching, but need to reach that idea, can not accept the word.
That is not to break the teachings, but to awaken the learners to learn beyond words to achieve the deep thoughts of the Buddha.
So you study in the Tibetan, Tibetan, in the records that Zen is said to be independent of the script, but the books of Zen are many, such as Transmission, Weakness, Lunar Eclipse ... that is the symbolic of several sets of green, and the sets of Zen masters wrote as Quy Son Book of Zen Master Quy Son ... So although saying " extraterrestrials "without leaving the teaching, must see that idea. So here the monk Monk advocated Zen Buddhism or Zen Buddhist monk. People do not understand the religion that jump into meditation many times nothing, and then later on as much as shot.
If newcomers do not learn catechism; As the days went by, Quy Son said: "Then come high age, high belly belly high heart, not close to you healthy, just a horizontal spread, arrogant". I do not go to school at all, the temple is many years older but do not understand the teachings, heart to pay tribute, this is long tuition but the stomach is empty so will be scorned call is postmortem contempt. Also do not be close to you good to learn more, just a superficial, it is more sick.
The Buddha taught in the Dhammapada:
Not an Elder,
If there is silver,
The elderly only,
Called dumb old.
Buddha is not high age is the eldest, not the eldest is. There is a seven-year-old, but Arahants should be called elders. This Buddha taught people only high age then that is called stupid old. Buddha warned senior practitioners not to practice, do not have a high age, the head of which is called senior. Then do not be close to you good to learn more things or good things, just a horizontal spread, arrogant. But with whom?
This is also a whip that Quy Son Son whipped so hard for the empty heart that hugged, arrogant. Try to ask the precepts are not clear, the teachings are not clear, but what is the hint? So he cautioned, need to transform this virtue to not make jokes for the position, that is prevented.
"Do not understand the law, not completely hold, or loud loud voice indiscriminate. Without the glass of the upper level, the Brahmin group is different. Scoused bowls, eat up before, go back illegally, lose all, can not stand sitting, not mind moving people mind. There is a little bit of rules, dread dread.What to keep for the next, the new pupil where imitate?
Quy Son is just the basic evil of the lack of schooling. Discipline rules do not know the rules, dread. Therefore making the gesture speak crude, lose all the Tang, ie the teacher's behavior. This is not understood lawful to take hold of me? Then loud voices, indiscriminate talk, no glass of the upper middle, the meeting is messy, like Ba-la-gathering. Eat then bowl up bowl, stand up before ..., that is lost dread, no style of monks.
Try to ask the monks that speak loud, indiscriminate, like the rude secular, lose all the Tang. People look at the teacher lost faith.
That Quy Son reminds us to be smart to preserve speech, action, posture. Monks are not wanting to talk indiscriminately, because the teacher is different from the secular. As monks call me, this guy, this guy is worth it? If Buddhists do not listen to sure that the hands are not revered!
Here he speaks indiscriminately or loudly, loudly speaking, it is lost the majesty of monks. To lose the belief of the Buddhist is just Blessed, just born his virtue. Then what is the new entrant to imitate to imitate here? What should I say to keep the posterior?For example, if you sit on a person and do not respect anyone, this is like a Brahmin gathering, messy and messy.
If you go running or running after you push ahead, it is true that you lose all order. It is because of not worry about learning rules, dread, if there is learning to take care is not so bad.
"Eat and wake up before, re-bowl the bowl, lose all the Tang." Right at the table, it is wise to keep mindfulness, control every gesture. And here is a bowl of spoonful noisy, eat in that state of course is a blessing meal.
It is important to know that in each of your chopsticks, each spoon inserted into your mouth, is eaten in mindfulness, in control it will be gentle but meaningful. So this must be eaten in a gentle manner, there is control, not nothing must rush, not afraid of people eat all the pain.
For example, four people, in a plate tofu cut into private, you have to know is to pick a corner only, people cut into a piece of a person. This one just took a piece off, afraid of the other people picking up, picking up another piece of it is the general greed.
Outside the world people say "eat pot, sit at the direction", is to look, not like to do. So only one of these meals, check back to what I have not done, say anything to subliminal, this is something to know.
This is to remind each person to self-check himself, to do the right law, have dread, decent rules and also help his mind less rough, less liberal.
What is that? That is, the body is always standing, sitting still not stand, standing still sit back, or foot movement, shaking his body ..., or stomping the set of memories to the next person; For a long time, the door closed and the mind was blamed. We must be careful in doing meditation.
As the story grows, please go down the mountain. The teacher did not say whether to give or not to say:
- He came to close the window for me.
The monk went to the door and made a loud noise.
The master said:
- No! Stay in three more years.
The monk heard the teacher said too happy to close the door and then go down the mountain, should emit strong sound, through which it is clear that the teacher is coarse, so the teacher said to stay in school for three more years. It's only closed for three years, to show meditation every second, not just on the podium. The closed meditation also, walking also meditation, the mosquito also meditation.
In the law has taught: "Do not get up to sleep the mosquito net, shaking the mind to move the mind to the next. Either get up first, then sit down quietly and step down to the next person to take her. Those are the majestic gestures that need to be learned.
The disciple of the Buddhist disciple who does not have the rules, dread what to use as an example for the next? So, each of you have to check whether you have a fault or not? Learn to remind yourself, and so see that the teachings of the Buddhas, patriarchs are always new, always new.
Monk's lawyer, Kien Nguyet, wrote the Vinaya Law, telling the story while attending school:
"- Once in Amien Giac heard the monk Giac Ngoo lecture Surangama, meet days-Vietnamese-style offerings, a tray of two people have four plates of food sitting opposite each other. Lawyer sitting together with the rising monk, he just finished sitting in the chopsticks that have not been cleaned all the food, but I did not catch up!
When the boys finished, he went out the door and told his two friends:
- Later, if we have conditions because they work, the food does not count as much or less, they put in a bowl and then it is used for love. One is the posture of the monk is nice, next to godly people, but today as the increase of this monk lost, where else is the hungry.
This is a lesson to remind us. We must keep the rules, dread to not be ashamed of the monk has no virtue, no loss of religious beliefs of Buddhists.
"Just be reminded for then he said:" I am the mountain teacher. "Not heard the teachings of the Buddha to practice, to keep a sense of rude.
Here comes the expression of the people who do not know shame shame. It is true that when one is reminded of it, it is a pleasure. We have to humbly acknowledge the error, thank brothers for prompting, let us know the error that modify, it is true progress. Here, but not to repair but also protect their own faults. When asked by the friar, "I am the mountain teacher." Mountain Master does not need the form, dread, tu in the forest that!Always protect your mistakes. Is the mountain teacher is rough? Quy Son reminded that he is also a mountain teacher, but not so.
That's what I want to remind you. We have to know the sincerely sincere apologies, who reminds it is a pleasure for you, not be hug; Always low to fix, do not stick to your wrong self.
The Buddha taught in the Dhammapada:
If you see the wisdom,
Just fault and blame.
As the only buried place,
Be close to the person.
So close to people,
Only good, not bad.
That is to meet people only fault, just like the buried gold, it is too good!
It's hard to find in life,
You know how self-restrained.
To avoid criticism,
Like a gentle horse to avoid whips.
The wise man must be so, we must also, also need to live with the personality of the wise. Do not follow the style of the ruling that Quy Son said, not listen to the Buddha's teachings to practice, but keep a crude temperament, defending his fault. That is the way down, is closing the truth, closing the truth.
On the contrary, we have to choose the way up, the path to the gentle, ready to open the door to see the truth. That is what the Founder found out to advise people know smart to not do.
We learn to check ourselves, not to learn to denigrate people, criticize people may not be even more, they must bring more crime. Learn to cultivate, remember that! Next group:
"The understanding is because the mind is initially lazy, giddy gradually through the day. The time has passed in life, become the countryside.
He pointed out that the original error was due to lazy, refusing to learn, just buried his head in the food to go through the month, grow up to become the countryside. This is the result of lazy lazy mind.
This reminded the monk must learn to learn to prevent the lazy effect, the time passed to eventually become ignorant, do not do anything for the director.
"No doubt the old clustered clusters, meeting the ignorance. Post-graduate asked no words to lead. Even if the table is said to be unlicensed, or is often neglected after the birth of the ritual, angry heart, said a croaking.
Long live in the postman who saw the idea that the senior in the temple so new to ask.At that shame did not know how to reply! Though the answer is not related to the rules, then it is suffering. Due to lazy pre-lazy study, so when old age to meet ignorance, the postmodern asked no words to lead, despite the effort to talk tables, is also said to break the rules.
Then the postmodern contempt for saying no punishment, then immediately take the character of adults to blame them disrespectfully without knowing the fault is theirs. Or blush to cushion them, not asking to reveal more of the countryside.
These are the faults that Quy Xo suggested to prevent us. This is also an experience so that later you go out to meet people asked not respond, that is, I do not understand, do not study carefully, do not say need to say but honestly say this I have not studied Reschedule the next time, then people are honest, the more they appreciate.
Here the team raised the case of people who do not know what is bad and their mistakes, but also bullying attitude is that the more exposed the more bad, that is more revealing his lack of education anymore. Quy Son reminded us carefully to prevent, avoid falling into that error. So we cultivate people to be honest, not to lie to people.
Here, the team pointed out the rough attitude of the lazy people do not study properly.He reminded and expected later learners to think to not fall into the situation as above.So sad! When I die I do not know where to go?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.
