Offerings And The Monks of praise must be careful.

 

Did you know that sometimes the praise harm than defamation! The vilified, but was very angry, but for people with willpower, as long as they are disparaging more effort, effort to reach the lofty achievements. Turning into a second slander the outstanding support Coast. Once hailed, praised them will think: "Oh! Many people praise her too, maybe its not that bad ", and they will contented with what they have and do not bother to cultivate even further.
So praise is very easy to hurt people. So, for young people, with the new school, we absolutely should not be praised, not offering too much. Because more money, fame up, will immediately descends immediately. The Young Magician, Mind-home development, is often praised devotees, offerings to make children fall Shamans touch. Thus the oppressed and their touch is caused by the devotees. After this, the position that Shamans retribution, all the praise, offerings can not escape oppressed.
So for those of us stronger offerings? It is the preacher, Shamans "Bat style estate has championed" (eight of the wind, lost, compliments, criticism, honor, humiliation, suffering, please do not make them shake). These people even though we are not living their praise rejoice, we do not vilify them depressed consciousness. So they always keep the mind calm equanimity. Such people are truly worthy of our praise. Why? Because the praise does not hurt them, so we must commend that many people know and trust them. Thus they can be a lot of beings.
's talking about this "donation". Donations received is not a simple matter. In the Buddha used to say: "A grain of benefactors such as Mount Meru, in another life without religion, to wear fur, horns teams to pay". So how dare people not recognize religious offerings and enjoy the offerings? Making human life, one can know his blessings, how much? Even Buddhas and Bodhisattvas do not enjoy the offerings. But if someone comes offering with sincerity, wants blessed cultivated fields, of course we can not deny, however, after the donations received, we intend to move in such offerings.
In modern times, He An Quang Dai is Professor exemplary image is good for us. Disciple refuge so much that he can not be counted. All of the material resources offered by disciples, He will bring the Dhamma books for "donations" for all, who founded the "Department of Hoang" in Suzhou China to Indian song and circulation of books . After I Dharma, I completely imitate his, ie how many donations, I have brought in books to be distributed to people everywhere. I thought: "If this does not put his life direction, I do not have to wear the feather horns to pay. Why is that? As recipients repay behalf texts me. "
Taking account of the material offered alms offerings roll, so, so blessed by the donation and the recipient becomes infinite large . Doing so is as legal to call. If use of the donated materials and money for personal enjoyment is absolutely impossible, such as France. She used resource offerings of benefactors to build temples, ashrams and built for the purpose of spreading the Dharma to benefit sentient. Such generosity is the new offering real merit. If on the inside that we do not practice nor propagate Buddhism temple that will be disputed. Thus distilled ashrams temple built to be especially careful!
Mr. Ly Binh Nam often said that: "When building the temple, everyone is Bodhisattva, after taking into La Damage done". Why? Because competing interests - then metamorphosed! The initial focus Throwing found on high-end cloud nine!
Offering Shamans have to be very careful. Buddhism teaches us: "Four offerings." Four is what?
1 / Cuisine: French monk who lived in the world, can not eat, so we offered to French culinary masters to maintain their lives
2 / Costumes: Wizard also need to wear clothes. If the old Wizardry shirt torn, we should give them a donation, good to see that there is no need donations.
3 / Medicine: When Shamans sick, we offering medicines to cure their illnesses .
4 / Crouching tools: Shamans also need a place to rest, our offerings, blankets, etc ...
Nowadays people give their homes or valuables offerings to make Shamans Shamans live very happy that Western Bliss did not want to go anymore. Because in this world is good too, then, to the West to do? Buddhist mind look into, end birth and death crumble. This achievement for the shaman, Shamans training is actually a great harm no nothing!
Shamans ordained means "loving cup cut part", not at home, we give them a home ie drag them back home. So bad they killed it, they have enough power and property, that is no longer the will of the people ordained and nothing more than the mundane! Who did they hurt? It is harmful believers Wizardry! The believer does not know that such actions are destructive Dharma, Jewels damage. They thought he was creating a lot of merit, do much better! Alas! When the public network, fall into hell meets Pluto, which was denied as long as no more!
Standing on merit in Buddhist practice, we need to have true wisdom and this should be clearly explained. Many Shamans do not dare speak for fear of the unknown states are Buddhists, Christians are not offered anymore. As for me, I just want to go to the World of Ultimate Bliss in the West, I do not want to head offense here, so I'm very honest to tell you that "I'm not afraid you're not offering me, offerings not as good as that I do not have to worry about all that. "
So I made ​​"The Education Council Buddha Kim" specializes in gift books. I advised him he lay instructors, the agency in charge of Dhamma books, always apply a rule as follows: "Money donated many, many books printed, in book donations at little, no, it does not print, this is the best. " Because many offerings to bother worrying choose the books in advance? In like? Conversely, if there are no offerings will not have to bother, Serenity know how! So people need to understand.
offering no bridge, no bridge ashrams, not for anything, to purify the mind, which is spiritual. Their own religious purity of mind, helping others cultivate a pure heart. Absolutely avaricious shuns fame, so new is the true Dharma. Want achievements for young Shamans, want to worry them, to accept them under a bit miserable. Do not say was that they did not had miserable. If so harmful that they are dead! When Sakyamuni was alive, all his disciples ate only one meal a day, sleeping under a tree, deprived of life such misery. If we see, it's not heartless, and bring them home. So how can they be enlightened? In the scriptures teach us that: "Of course the monk suffering" suffering as a means of obtaining his master. Often in life miserable, new people genuinely interested director, a new determination in mind, beyond this world.
therefore suffering is good! We do not tolerate misery, but to see others endure hardships we must be born out of reverence, not to create obstacles and entice them to come back. We must be sincere, based on the fact that training Mage, Warlock achievements. How do we get Shamans can invite new, genuine Shamans, good benefits to legal love life.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTMENT.WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=THE EIGHTFOLD PATH.NAM MO SAKYA MUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.15/10/2014.
