Equality of the legal bowl.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.
Theoretical basis of the spirit of equality
Equality is a great human problem , and is studied by many interested people . But from the past to now , no one has set up base in theoretical solid for the spirit of equality , as well as no one really enforce the spirit of equality a wholeness . Moreover, aspects of equality that they are interested in is the equality between nations peoples, between strains of ethnic, between people, equality on gender… Most of these views are superficial and not definitive . Until the birth of the Buddha , he brought the philosophy of true equality to mankind .
"Equality is equal uniformity , high not low, shallow depth. Only all phenomena are of the same nature: Non- Consciousness , Consciousness or Truthfulness , etc. For sentient beings , we must also consider being equal, not tall, low, resentful , worthy of equal mercy and have enough Buddha nature. the same, this is called equal beings ”. According to the Buddha's teaching in the Pham hammock , the Nirvana Sutra ..., "All sentient beings have Buddha nature and are capable of becoming a Buddha.. I am a Buddha, all sentient beings who are Buddha will become "is a sure statement , derived from the supreme , humanistic insight with the highest sense of the Buddha of the true value of all. all sentient beings in general, people in particular.
Human truth in each, Buddha nature purity of every sentient being equal is the basis reasoning firmly for the equal absolute not only between humans, but between all species of living beings with each other . This is also a contributing invaluable philosophy of Buddhist teachings for cultural humanity was United Nations recognition . So the relationship between person and person is an absolutely equal relationshipThere are no noble or lowly people because of class discrimination , no dignity because of discrimination against men and women . Noble or despicable due to the behavior , thoughts of man , not by caste . Thought equality in Buddhism teaches people to tear down the split class . This represents silver in the scriptures , and the Buddha reality turned this philosophy to the people ordained and living in Sangha .
Beijing Room People (Nipata) 136 is a testament question specifically about the spirit of equality : "No one is born a plebeian , no one born a Brahmin. Because of the behavior that people become untouchable , by the act that humans become Bra-la-subjects ". The spirit of equal enlightenment liberation , regardless of man and woman , is also clearly expressed in the Thang Man sutra . Thang Man is a woman, because she has practiced for many generations and depended on the Buddha's divine power Mahayana thought most means and she was also signed by the Buddha to become a Buddha in the future. This makes me think of the Long Women in Business France flower , Good Wealth in doing Huayan , represents the spirit of equality absolute as the Buddha said: "All beings have Buddha nature , are going into Buddha". The Buddha asserted: "I am a Buddha who has become, and sentient beings that are Buddha will become". This sincere word of the Buddha was realized as soon as he was on earth , who, regardless of class, whether it is pagan , evil, wrong view , ignorant, ignorant etc ..., if you know to believe according to the Buddha's words teaching that efforts to practice will be enlightened and freed . These monks rooftop sufficiency disciples Buddhist monk attained as the venerable Xa-profit-waving, Section-devout-venture ...; Bhikkhu-stilts like Ma-ha Ba-bar-ba-subject, Lien Hoa Sac…; even come as De-BA-attain-multi has evil mind harming Buddha, Prince A-so-so kills her parents, No-Nao guy hears the word of the pagan to kill people with 100 fingers, Ma Dang-old harms A-nan…; in the end all were granted Buddha's degrees and freed .
Beijing Saṁyutta written, Germany Auspicious see King Pasenadi Kosala not be happy , knowing queen Mallika gave birth to a girl, even when she speaks verse explaining the problems of men and women equality " Hey Master, in life / There are some girls / Maybe better / Compared to boys… ”. The spirit of equality is also expressed in the Compassion scriptures : "May all living things on earth live peacefully ... May no species kill any species, do not take any lightly. the life of someone, who because of anger or malice , but desire for one is suffering and miserable ".
Spirit of equality of the Buddha are inherited and promoted in the Buddhist Emperor Tran Nhan Tong , with the desire all the people of Great Vietnam are Sakyamuni , Maitreya : "Sri's incredible, of spiritual faith, one or the such Shakyamuni . Cam morality , paragraph jealousy involved, chin he really is Maitreya ", Concept Buddha and sentient beings completely equal , have the same true face to the" sharp eyebrow flat, nasal along "really rare rare in medieval antiquity, the period that sense Us feudal with the powerful supernatural dominant embraces all aspects of life society . These inviolable forces are seen as the supernatural , human superior . In this period , even the king of a large country like China only dared to claim to be the angel (the son of heaven), and only the king had to start with the phrase Feng Shui's fortune ( obeying the destiny of heaven), but here Tue Trung dares openly assert the Buddha and all sentient beings equal . Look insight actually minister of things beyond space , time is the basis of solid , humane and meaningful highest, super-Vietnam era of equality absolute not only between people but also among all beings with Buddha, God, God, Holy. Meaning big philosophy of equality by Buddha enlightenment is a valuable morale extremely necessary that man in the era of civilization of us should ponder.
The problem of the Eightfold Dharma
In a modern civilized society , with the strong development of science and technology, information technology, the movement to call for men and women to equal rights has appeared for about a century. This movement has a profound influence on many classes of society , including Buddhist nuns around the world . One of the problems that consumes the most ink is the Eightfold Dharma for the nuns . The sutra talks about the establishment Nuns and irreverent approach is found in the scriptures ( Increase spending , economic Mahapajapati Gotami) and Vinaya of Buddhist Pali, to writing in the first century First AD.
Equivalent Chinese business is Cu-talk-di ( Chinese A-function, number 116). The tradition of Buddhism based on the source material in order to determine that Ms. Ma-ha Three main-beam-three-threads, designed form of the Buddha , who represents ask Buddha for women ordained .
Buddha prepared irreverent approach , summarized as follows: 1. Monks-ni must verses presented Specifically excluded where monks. 2. Bhikkhu-stilts-ni must come to receive teaching at the place of monks every half a month . 3. If the place of residence does not have Bhikkhu-stilts, Bhikkhunis are not allowed to settle down . 4. Bhikkhu-stilts-ni, after the life of the lower settlement, must confront two sets of them to specify the three events , seeing, hearing and suspecting. 5. If the Bhikkhu-stilts do not allow the questioning, the bhikkhunis may not ask. 6. Monks and nuns are not allowed to say the wrong thing of Bhikkhu-stilts. 7. Bhikkhu-stilts-ni if he violates the elderly-grandmother-thi-sa, then they must face two sets of disaffected action. 8. Bhikkhu-stilts-ni despite taking the precepts The ordination took a hundred years, but before the new monk was ordained , he still had to humbly bow his head to worship.
Read Eight what the Buddha taught the women a genuine desire to renunciation , that is easy to have the feeling the man's, especially under the prism of social learning in social modernization today with the tendency of men and women average equality .
Equal spirit of the Eightfold Dharma
Debate on the aspects , angles, including the degree of reliability of irreverent approach is due to the Buddha regime or not, from past to present , in the country as well as abroad, a lot of people mentioned. Here, we are only talking about the egalitarian spirit of the Eightfold Dharma .
Why did the Buddha give women ordination ? Because he sees clearly, all sentient beings have Buddha nature and have the capacity to enlightenment. This is the most solid foundation of the egalitarian essence and the egalitarian spirit of Buddhism , and is a guideline for the Buddha to treat all sentient beings in general and women in particular.
But each of us was born with inborn , private nature , karma is different, Buddha , depending on the various objects that that method of teaching appropriate , reinforced back benefits and efficiency most progress toward feeling enlightenment , liberation . The eight dharma rules and precepts for the nuns are still not out of this purpose .
The essential spirit of the Eightfold Dharma is to help women eliminate ego-clinging and attain no-self . In this sense , if the mind is anattā , there is no selfish form that can interfere . If the monks and nuns are thinking like the truth that all suffering is caused by the self- grasping mind , the Eightfold Dharma helps us to get rid of that unreal self . If we truly practice , towards selfless enlightenment and liberation then There are no obstacles in the legal bowl !
For example Bonze Hai Trieu Music , Career wise elders in every nuns contemporary, have merit significantly to propagate the Dhamma , both nuns glass precious, lifelong carefully preserved irreverent approach not a little neglect , dare to deny more situations . I think , for those who have ego-clinging mind , who have a mind of discrimination , the Eightfold Dharma is hindering their ego , they will see the Eightfold Dhamma. is not really equal , not by Buddha.
