For beginners Buddha that said, we need to generalize the past introduced Buddhism to them. Most people in today's society are misperceptions about Buddhism, this is a very common phenomenon. As students of Buddhism, we need to distinguish clearly. Speaking to the wonderful success and wins most of the Dharma, is speaking about the choice of the Pure, and be free at birth, this is the unparalleled wins. 

 

   My first exposure to Buddhism, Eastern America taught me first born, studied Buddhism is the supreme enjoyment of life. Reached the level at birth itself, that is the true enjoyment wins, to the fullest. So try to ask, we can do this or not? Answers are to be confirmed. The problem here, is that we have wanted or unwanted. If you have desire, then, the old virtues like saying: "Thousands of thousands of people who practice it." This speech is very simple, very easy, but still has its conditions.

 

   We've read through of Amitayurdhyana. Lady Vaidehi encountered by national events, modern words as "main variable". She toward Shakyamuni Buddha prayer. The relationship between her and the Buddha is clear. She has taught mind Bhagavan bridge director, new Buddha incarnate before her. From there she was transparent to the Buddha that world star too much suffering. Therefore, she said, asked Buddha what the world has happily or not? If so, she really wanted birth on it. Then, the Buddha used his powers to bring the world of ten schools of Buddhism appeared before her selection. Finally, Ms. towards Buddha that said, in the countries of the Buddhas, the Pure of Amitabha very good, so she chose this world. She asked how could Buddha reborn in that place. Buddha very happy for the correctness of her choice, because in the world of the Buddhas of the ten directions, without any wins world and match the Pure. 

 

   Reason wins we can reflect the world of all Buddhas like current earth we live so, are under the old country. Already a quaint country then of course, there exist very old issues difficult to resolve. Meanwhile, the Pure is a newly established country, there are so many means. Buddha Amitabha established the Western world, said in the scriptures say to this day only have ten lives alone. Therefore, compared to the world of Buddhas, it is still new. In a newly formed country does not have the majority of residents are immigrants to reside, only the ancient nations are permanent residents, with the leader only. Their habits is not easy to make the amendment, has not been certain amendments will have many afflictions. Saha world like our own, because the ancient world so habitual afflictions of beings very much. Buddha taught admonish every word they did not listen, refusing to learn, so want of them is the very difficult job to do.

 

   Western world but the world is newly established, but the conditions to be born in that place are very strict, and under the old collective negativity gas is not easy, it was very good. So Lady Vi Recommended Hi Once across, she confirmed what the world is no match. This in of Infinite Life has praised "precious light in the light, is the king of the Buddha '' this is the praise of Shakyamuni revenge win against the Buddha Amitabha and the Pure. This is the basis upon which we can put that to belief. Both the newly established national level, there have been ten schools of Buddhism, if people genuinely want to practice on that place certain students will achieve.

 

   Amitabha great vow, is creating ashrams Ecstasy to assist practitioners. Thus, we have to do to be born in that place? Buddha taught her purse to Hi ie teach us, this we need clear awareness. First, the Buddha has not taught her about cultivation methods, which he said only students who want to practice in that place now three pure blessing, also known as the three conditions. Buddha taught three conditions is also chief of the industry's net three Buddhas. This statement an important and essential. Three life is only life past, present life and future life. Beings cultivate to become a Buddha, dharma has boundless, but even if the study methods were not far from the base.

 

   Today, the Buddhist concept very much, but who was reborn there are many. The cause stems from? Do we neglect negligence, disregard, without attention to the foundation of this business three pure blessing. Buddha's infinite grace, just transparency, we ourselves are confused, do not trust, not in life. If we rely on this platform, the medicine under the Buddha's method that initiates certain we will achieve the birth into the Pure Land. 

 

   Three conditions include what? First there is the hospitality and support their parents, serving teachers, compassion does not kill, repair ten good karma. These things we have done or not? Many people think that these things are difficult to do. We do not get, or do without to place to place, or do not please to do. Why are we not happy to perform? Because once we make the immediate damage and many losses. Current society is no longer like the old days anymore. We always treat people with speech and honest work, while people always deceive us. Will we still be able to keep his true stance that treat people or not? Or are deceiving me, I also cheated them, and then we also imitate learned on the lies of people. Just implementing a so little benefit alone, but it can be also a major hindrance makes us lose great benefit Ecstasy birth. Today, I am dedicated to make dealing with the person who wholeheartedly to dupe me, that's no small thing. One trick I much just a financial amount. Apparently if my cheated away, but tomorrow I was born there was a good thing, not a problem. Therefore can know, why we recite the Buddha without photographic mind? It is the idea of ​​us seek birth is not strong. For the world, I still lingered, delusions, discrimination and attachments without incurring lower reporter, reporters were not reduced, it can not walk.

 

   Speaking to tropical reborn now, as we bring old now and not bring new business practices, ethics is certain we need to understand. Therefore, the foundation of Buddhism is to start from the body hospitality guru, general regulations fullness and body remain hospitality guru. So, Dharma is filial piety, is directing guru, which want to get the revered chief, everybody wants to be a teacher, all must be constructed on the foundation of filial piety. A normal person to his parents without filial respect, the chief can not be achieved. Thus, we try to consider this to see two things, everyday we have accomplished or not? In other words, even the human duty but not done well, how can we talk of the Buddha. You be born in any public location in the world of Ultimate Bliss, the Western world has come and that is you did Buddha. Song wants to Buddha, first human duty we have to make good. If there is a little mistake to amend certain, nothing to worry and fear, just take selfishness, narrow that down travel reporter.

 

   In fact, for moral causality, but we do not know the truth and the truth of it, it was a huge mistake. Therefore, the early years of China, An Quang master advised all who study Buddhism start from Willow products from Huan, is very moral. Contents of the Four Qualities Willow Workshops are deep believers suggest causality. Once you're convinced of a causal then, each a piece of food, drinks you realize that not by coincidence that predestination and there. Once you have insight into karmic retribution, you most definitely not from fear, the mind has no fear that is samadhi. My Network blessings and fortune, though'd throw it away is not. You just kept taking it Daphnia, important is that you dare bring him alms or not? How you can know tomorrow I will not have anything to eat? If you really know about tomorrow, then perhaps you are superman, not a normal person now. So, the students of Buddhism, we must believe deep causal, causal deep believe, will we believe his teachings, new teachers serve the health, body and mind will be liberated, a ceiling not the slightest infection. Pure mind, the Buddha of purification.  

 

TIN (Faith)


   Conditions to be born in the Pure is pure mind. However, Buddhism says there is immeasurable, unbounded methods, but ultimately still provided about three subjects. According Flower Adornment Sutra says, that's the signal, operator and controls. For Pure Land monk, once the most reach consciousness disorders also only three subjects, that is right, and pure sense. Today, we found refuge in the Three Jewels center, but Tam told the delegates for the district, sensory, continence. Buddha's delegate to sense, France is chief intellectual, financial programs, increase the delegate for purity. Ceiling slightest pure bases not responsible, that we have done or not? Currently doing very awkward home people, laymen who donated money for you very much. You without purification to storage or send the bank, many afflictions. If you like to bring those things that rinsed away before you can truly achieve purity of mind. If we want the country of the Buddha Bar, then we must truly filial respect their parents and that is of course chief.

 

   Parents against children put full faith and hope, as the ancients used to say: "I hope the son of the dragon, the phoenix yearning daughter", as such, this statement mean? Delegates dragon and phoenix is ​​Buddha, bodhisattvas. You become a Buddha, Bodhisattvas your parents very happy, your teacher is also very funny. So ten, three generations all buddhas are desirable for all beings soon to become a Buddha. Buddha is a very good teacher of ours, we need to have aspirations, determination, they deserve the good pupil, who cootie hospitality. In three career blessed net from a low of ten good karma, good karma this ten we have fully implemented, it said in a new economic deserve death called good men, good women goodness. Normally, when we opened business has seen good men read to the death, female friendly kindness. Compassion is its condition. If ten good karma that you do not do it, not known as good men and women to death or mercy charity, saying this is the lowest standard. From this standard a step further advancement is life over Tam rules, complete them instructions, not violating majesty. This second blessing compared to the first merit higher floors, the first floor is of the Human, God ministers, are two of five ministers of Buddhism. From Human, Natural surplus again promoted to the rank of Thanh Van and Pratyekabuddha is excess, ie second floor. Second blessing is blessed triangle represent Thanh Van and Pratyekabuddha redundant. And from this second floor, it has to move another step that is found Bodhi mind, deeply believe causal, recite Mahayana, extension tons practitioner, this is the condition of the Bodhisattva. Causal insights of the bodhisattva is not a normal kind of cause and effect as ordinary. For example, today, we are talking about the subject of the causality are free at birth, the Buddhist concept is human, the Buddha is the fruit, that we follow the causality of the Bodhisattva.

 

   Two-letter Buddhist concept we have clear awareness. Buddhist concept is not mouth anniversary. Ancients said: "Amitabha Mouth scattered mind, though also thought to dry throat in vain." Thus, we must note how? We tried through letters at conception mean? Chinese writing very different from writing of the countries worldwide. Chinese writing symbols for wisdom, you can see through enlightenment. For example, the word concept (念), which is the word Confer, on the literal needle (今), below is the heart (心), meaning that in mind you always remember Buddha, Buddhist concept is called Buddha. Hence the saying: "A concept that corresponds to a Buddha, reciting mantras corresponds to recite Buddhist concept". Thus, the current in your mind, your mind has Buddha is Buddha, but in your mind, you do not have Buddha Buddha is who? So say not use mouth is thought that. In Buddhism, the mind corresponds, so where is the ultimate Buddha? This we must understand clearly. Buddha is only for self-interest leg, his own nature. We have the most current corresponds nature concept here called for Buddha, recite without corresponds nature is not Buddha. Though called Amitabha everyday are not counted as Buddha, this is very confusing morality. So, we bring the whole of Buddha inductive reasoning of the following words: Sincerity is the essence, purity is the essence, the essence of equality, enlightenment is the essence, the essence is compassion.

 

   Your mind must corresponds sincerity, purity, equality and enlightenment, compassion, at that time called the Buddha mind, so-called new Buddha. Buddhist concept cry nor Buddha Sakyamuni, call him what effect? If reciting Buddha Sakyamuni on the Minister corresponds or not? We can say that corresponds. Shakyamuni means benevolent, Muni is pure and equal. You see corresponds not? We thought Sakyamuni, Gautama is from our own mind that comes purity and equality, Muni is the heart that comes from compassion, this is the idea. "A concept that corresponds to a Buddhist concept", not the concept of a human being, thought someone was no achievements. Thus, we must understand the true meaning of his name is what? Self-interest we must corresponds title can play mind is. Currently we recite Amitabha, this title versus title Sakyamuni more fullness. Shakyamuni in reality there are only two main meanings: one is sincere, compassionate; two are pure and equal. Which Amituofo self-fulfilling nature of faith, not lack anything, sweeping all, in business often say that great consummation, this is the meaning of it.

 

   Meaning Amitabha Buddha, speaking Chinese language means immeasurable sense, infinite wisdom, infinite enlightenment, it covers all not lack a sense. For all other Buddhas title meaning there is no limit, there is locally, but for the title Amitabha particularly emphasized. Why should the Buddha was born into this world to become a Buddha Saha? We have to confess recite Buddha Sakyamuni or not? These are all diseases that the drug option. We live in world Saha largely lacking compassion center, only self-seeking, lack of pure heart, a dark day early to think only think wrong contacts. So, the Buddha used the title to sentient beings, that's the main principle of the work of modern-day teaching. Then we must note how? Absolutely you can not recite the Buddha became the Buddha in India 3,000 years ago. If you recite this Buddha, you're quite wrong. He is the legal expression, the title itself is just a list, you have to communicate the meaning of it, the new mind Buddhist concept is true. Your heart was indeed sincere, compassionate, calm, equality then one day you do not need to recite a sentence titles are, until you want to reborn, Buddha Amitabha will come to guide you. Why is that? Because you really practice true meaning of Buddha. Currently, people understand the principle nianfo deep this little mystery. They only know the date anniversary date, but again let loose mind freely, though conception until dry throat, out of breath and not be born. You see there is miscarriage of justice or not? This is our moral need for transparency perception. Were aware already, so we need to recite Amitabha Buddha or not? Still have to recite. Reciting without conception, no thought that notion. Why on forms must often recite Amitabha? Because we want to help and support others. I recite Amitabha Buddha, other people hear, will certainly ask: "Do you have something good nianfo what? This is a new opportunity that you have reason to bring the benefits of Buddhist concept that showcases the people. People listening to me, understand transparency, and their determination to implement tried Buddha, this is to a degree you have then. Therefore, we recite the Buddha of the sound mainly work to benefit others, this truly is the mind, the new right with the true meaning of the Buddha. Having put his righteous and enlightened solutions, we are in the world, so to behave with social mass like? We must take the Buddhist center that treats life, this is something to remember. I can understand teaching, the ancients say make cryptic. Stock's play called Bodhicitta, this term we are very confusing. Song, discovered Bodhicitta is what? I say that with sincerity, purity, equality and enlightenment, compassion, everyone heard a little understandable. Bodhicitta was found, but was eligible for salary to be born or not? Most have specialized instruction concept. We look at three degrees of Infinite Life reborn, the most important is inductive in eight words: play Bodhicitta, most specialized instruction concept. One is a vision, a goal. So, how can the notion most specialized instruction? We also induction of ten digits: see through, zoom down, in order, depending on the coast, for Buddha. See through the true nature perception of the universe and humanity, all the reasons you have to communicate causality clearly, so-called new see through. After clearly know the truth everything right, you need to zoom down, zoom down what is this? These are self-interested ideology, what the reporters go down is not me, is mine, is my self; Reporters go down greed, anger, ignorance and arrogance. This paragraph in the Buddhist scriptures called negativity is, investment or, negativity and ignorance sa ceiling or negativity. These are terms that require a lot of time explaining understand. Someone heard'm not understand, because we do not have much time. So, I brought those terms are used modern language speaks through. What is disturbing is private? Is attached. Laid bare something called negativity? Is distinguished. Something called ignorance negativity? It is delusion. Speaking in this way perhaps people can understand. Thus, the reporter down a reporter down all thoughts, discrimination and attachment. Buddha taught us not to say that journalists lowered down travel reporter jobs, which are many misperceptions. If results like Shakyamuni Buddha taught us the lower reporters traveling is what galaxy every 49 years throughout the hardships he had nationwide sweep against India to lecture teaching experience? My day itself must also come the day where to preach, why not release me to go down? Thus, reporters down here is discarded that idea, discrimination and attachment. This is the moral we need to understand.

 

   At work, we have to try harder and do a more fulfilling way. But as the mind is liberated peacefully. Previously, working with many afflictions, but today work very peaceful. Why is that? Because ago to do is to serve autistic serve yourself. Following the defilement autism, lost the hearts and minds; while for others work is not disturbing. So, after enlightenment, we let go of all, everyday life on earth do the means for living beings, for society. Therefore, though do that very peacefully, work to be fulfilled, the blessed beings. Conversely, you do not work hard, others are not happy, you lose the people's hearts, lack of good fortune, so how without peace? So, whether present or future, where you are working or doing any work that, in daily life, all you have to know that as grace without phan coast, so you will be liberated. Absolutely no thought is that I do this, I do that, so you will have afflictions. Buddhas, Bodhisattvas busier we are many. You think, we often recite Guanyin Bodhisattva, He is for us very familiar. His characteristics are thousands of thousands of parish land bridge sensors. There are many players in the legal world nowhere His help. He gurgles busy, we are not busy with him. What should sentient body to the relatives that he immediately appeared, who need assistance depending upon how he also follow that help. Until now, he never makes a disappointed, yet when he was liberated, verily He has completely let go and release the lower, no longer caught up in any event whatsoever. Thus, in the Diamond Sutra has taught us two sentences: "Lia all generals, initiates all good things." Minister shuns all the reporters were down, letting go. Secession all generals do? As leaves fall minister, minister's, PM beings and Minister fake life. General falls are attached, minister's, beings are distinguished generals, generals assume life is illusion. Noun but not the same, but just one. Reporters then lowered himself in, then all good practice, for the benefit of all beings. In everything there is benefit to living beings, for the public and it has liberated society. On the contrary, In everything that has benefits for autism are the evil itself, this is a certain morality you need to understand. 

 

   Why do ordinary things for their own benefit are called the wicked? Because its main benefit is the intellectual growth evil demons. Buddha teaches you zoom down go the I, the I is not letting you, all your actions reflect what we are in it. Following the rebirth and we then can not escape from samsara. When you can escape samsara? When we are no longer the ones you out of samsara.

 

   Recently, I learned a nun her in Singapore, we have brought them here to take pictures. She was born in 1900 but to date is 2000. In Kim Cang said of the four generals, like that time I did not see her looking through a minister does, indeed, she has no ego minister, minister's, no minister beings and Minister fake life. 101 year old grandmother this year, but I always thought she did not look over age 50 years or only 40 a few years old. Tooth loss only have one. At the press view, she does not need glasses, ear has normal hearing, react very flexibly. A person in their 40s can not normally match, she also performed acrobatic show us more. Thus, she thanks to what that was like? Was launched down and letting go. She said her whole life is dedicated to make to look after and care for the elderly in nursing homes dozen. As the Buddha said Bell had three categories: finance pilot, experimental and fearless approach alms, all women are fulfilled, the money of her furniture is indeed bright and super Vietnam three worlds. She considered the scriptures and listen to my tapes roughly only two this year alone. This incident with Lee Lam Nguyen lay intimately together, lay Ly Lam Nguyen has tell me. Actually there is such a person or not? I went to see and witness, is not wrong. We preached all spiritual practices she have done before. I preached three translational blessed her now well rounded. She was a Catholic nun but a lifetime of practice, this proves her good roots deep predecessor thick. She was a great athlete. Question to the condition, she said one day she ate only one meal but the full spirit. Every day still work normally, she help those suffering and patient. Currently, Singapore is indeed such a spiritual person, if you can not trust to that view. So we have to try to let go and release down all because beings that serves, certain to be many liberated. 

 

PRAYER (desire)


   We need to study the example of the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas were passive, not proactive. You do not go your needs him, they did not come looking for you. You need them, they will definitely come to your help. Buddhas, Bodhisattvas were passive, not proactive, but they have passive liberated. Actively are you to speculate, calculate what to do, where to go? ... So you were phan grace, not as grace. You have phan conditions are hard working and heart center, so will have afflictions. You charming custom is no negativity, nothing to worry about. I have lifelong medical follow teachings of masters program Gia, all depending on the coast, so far no phan coast, themselves not seek affliction. Lifelong no ashrams, no disciple. You see many people taking refuge with me, after taking refuge and then, I never asked him what her name, home where ... such as defilement? The Three Refuges of you for me where there is any relation? I demonstrate and transfer the Three Refuges for you as well. You refuge is refuge with sensory, chief refuge, refuge net. If you believe that your refuge is magician Chin was wrong. However, you should remember these two words, pure intentions, no shred of what was true then you seek refuge with Chin. If that refuge is refuge for such people is wrong. This issue is very important, so that the real purpose of the refuge is not provided to someone. I myself learned lifelong learning Tinh No, there is such a new matching name myself that.  

 

   Buddhist concept was thought what is this? Currencies always have to remember to eighteen letters, reciting mantras corresponds to sincerity, purity, equality, enlightenment and compassion; concept concept corresponds to crowd out, zoom down, in order, depending on the coast, so the vows add the Pure Birth bridge. Such decisions are reborn, but reborn in another order, which everyone can do. But the problem arises that you have dared to launch down, letting go or not? People often donate money to me, now I remembered it alone, like no other I would go find disturbing. The old lady 101 years old nun, she found refuge in mind, I demonstrate the Three Refuges Five Precepts transmitted to her. She offers to let go of everything, while I still have savings in bank books, teaching contrary to his words. So far, I bring all assets related to money allocated to banks do lay Forestry education funds, welfare funds, I do not do things that he replaced me. You think I have more leisurely, everything they offered for me at this party, it is stored in Xu Tong Academic Society for the fellow doing missionary work benefits students, part of the money I would not bring along. People want to send money to me also, or you may send your account to lay Lam, or sent to Xu Tong Education Conference in Singapore, not necessarily to get my hands, so very troublesome. I also want selves are pure, natural, and I'll pray for themselves at birth. Like the lady nun mentioned above, students are free at the same time she wanted to go when they could go at the time, she wanted to stay at the earth as long as it does not matter. Born in the birth of self-liberation, she can do it, it can prove that the people are doing. I looked over her body condition corresponds completely with the words of the Emperor of Internal Medicine, Ling Xu Beijing that ancient medicine of China has said. Normal life span of a living person is 200 years old. Why do not you live to 200 years old? Because you do not know how normal maintenance, which only makes the body weaker. What makes the body healthier body? Natural University, the robust body. So, people who need to restore the natural great body then naturally longevity. By contrast, natural ecological destruction, the human life span will be reduced. Today, we are referring to the natural ecology of the body. So, what destructive nature of human ecology? It is the hope, as distinguished and attachments. Ancients often called the lost love and sensual pleasures, that's what goes circumstances sabotaged our natural. Natural circumstances, the ones hurt most severely destroyed in each of us was the character, which by the Buddha that is greed, hatred and delusion. Of these, the most hazardous golf. The grandmother nun told us, every time anger arises only in a minute, it takes about three days to restore the normal, it is a truth not frivolous. Thus, the initial meeting I asked her, she has never experienced hatred not? She said that life never had. Treat others disagree with her, she just cultivate themselves to blame not to, intellectual incomplete and do not hard, since she did not dare to embrace their anger for any one person. This, the Sixth Patriarch Platform Sutra also says: "If people really practice, not seeing the error of the world". These teachings have done her. She was a Christian, in fact she really super Vietnamese. In recent years, she realized the teachings of the scriptures of the religions, all teachings are very valuable to her practice. I asked her: "Have you ever seen her hungry ghost realm or not?". She responded very well, I seen all of the world religions are a light halo. This shows that she really super Vietnam, saw enter the realm of equality. Her current Buddhist view, listen to my tapes, very happy. I asked her she was eligible to make disciples of Buddha or not? I said she was worthy. Mrs. Three Refuges, the precepts, I just delivering messages Tam provided evidence for her deed without explanation. She done completely, she is considered to be genuine disciples of the Three Jewels. In the future, you have a chance to go to Singapore, you can see her eyes and witness the daily life of the people there. If we want the body to be robust longevity, future generations are free at birth, she is a very good example for us to follow and learn.

 

   For everything implications, diabolical, afflictions, you need to let go, because our nature is corrupt pseudo capital. In Buddhist teaching very well: "All things are formless falsehoods" or "all compounded things, and illusory mirage", these are the conditions that make you contemplate letting go. After letting go, you will not be infected before, immediately it was liberated. Currently, you want to get more aid element. 101 year old nun that she had never been sick, which we can trust. Now I also have over 70, also never pathogenesis. Illness born from? From delusions that out. Therefore, the Buddha preached greed, hatred and delusion are the three poisons, poisons of illness. In the center you have greed, hatred and delusion, plus outside with five desires, continental situation, how could not avoid the disease! Purity of mind is an important condition for a healthier body. Compassion can rescue poison. Any type of poison does compassion can resolve. You often nurture and cultivate compassion and purity of the hundreds of illnesses are not incurred.

 

   Life network and wealth are two things in this world everyone is expecting. Wealth here is not saying you have to have more money, but what about wealth? Material life and your life does not lack, without excess that is wealthy. Wealth on something? Here too not to mention you have to do relating to large organizations, new high status called you, but the main wealth that whatever you do, if people see that everyone mind you were happy, new feature called your reverence. We need to understand the true meaning of this, it should be found that makes the true heart.

 

   Two years ago, I am very grateful to lay Cao Quy Minh. After the Korean Administration Zhang birth, in the past, all of the teachings in our ashrams were made by him. I have never ever experienced this. After he left, we have ashrams in Taiwan, where the United States also has a ashrams, in Australia also ashrams, I do not know what to do, given the manager should have. So, every year I distribute the time, in the US three months, Taiwan three months, three months Australia, Singapore three months, this is only intended new. Layman Noble library Ming recovered, after leaving the library I thank him. He told me to stay in Singapore but diligent preaching, no need for additional land. So, I did not return two Taiwanese and American countries as before, then at the heart of this place I could start teaching experience United. Flower Adornment Sutra is preached wishes after death of Zhang Han Administration, and it is also a way to foster talents preaching.

 

   We not only preach but also Flower Adornment Sutra practice, simply say that the practice is not without significance. So, we need to bring the Flower Adornment that done. Flower Sutra say? Use language that said today is world peace. World of Flower Adornment than our world immensely bigger, not only within the earth that covers the legal world to take nowhere. All ten national boundless Buddhas level irrespective of a national level or other level, regardless of race, religious beliefs, in which people can live in harmony, equal treatment together. That is what we need to practice.

 

   Thus, we must start implementing from? First is from religion. Therefore, I have made the union of nine religions in Singapore. Currently here, nine religions are all in a very harmonious, true mutual respect, solidarity, cooperation support. Singapore society and government are truly excited about this. We have brought this photograph, later you can see through.

 

   In the lunar year, everywhere I go food festival from time. This should go or not? I came here to do? I came to Australia for earthworks, can not say that there is no employment. I went unite disagreement race in Australia, this job I also based on the Flower Adornment Sutra taught. You recite the Avatamsaka must understand clearly. Slogans calling for peace around the world thousands of years have passed, but peace still not implemented a comprehensive, causes originate from? Do not seek to be the foundation of peace, there is no theoretical basis, for peace should not be done. Slogans are ineffective. Therefore, all beings take legal nothingness from whence out? Is derived from self-interest we turn out. So, preaching is the essence of Buddhism, preaching is Tathagata. Tathagata is also nature, as in the Diamond Sutra have when it comes to the Tathagata, sometimes it comes to the Buddhas. Tathagata is a perspective lecturer on nature, while the Buddhas are talking on angles minister and minister as a character, not two. So, first need to find out the rationale, this was true reasoning, not a delusion, solidified the eternal unchanged, the truth of the world. The word truth, according to Buddhist minister called truth, is nature. Christianity, Christianity, Judaism, often mentions God. Y Tu Lan teacher said to Allah, the names were different, but there is only one and not two. So, when in contact with other religions, explained to them, they say why did you study Buddhism? Can you Lord our God is not? We bow to God than you are much more respectful. You see the first day Buddhist festival, we often worship heaven, heavenly worship a god that is worshiped, we bow than you earnestly and sincerely than many. Why? Because your god, your god, you say A Na is in the Buddhist teaching is Tathagata, is the incarnation of the Tathagata is not anybody else. I say that you reflect back, you are followers of Christianity. Everything in this world was created by God, Buddha, Bodhisattvas as well as the incarnation of god. Only through no grievances and inequality, we want peace, they must establish on that basis. Therefore, I say Buddha is the number one, and number one Christian, Christianity is also the First, Y Lan Catholic America is number one, all are number one without number two. Why is that? Because the Flower Adornment Sutra preached to us, which measures gender equality, not least two different vacuum, has the second is born of grievances. Buddhist scriptures, the First, Old Testament, New Testament, the First, economic as well as the First Joint Lan. Must often mutual respect, mutual love can help, cooperation, become a member of a home. Therefore, we must cooperate religion, treat each other in harmony, so the world will be no more war between religions, no ethnic conflict. In other words, people will no disaster, even natural disasters can not. Disasters from where out? From the human disaster that out. Therefore, the Buddha said in the retribution depends on the chief press that switch, in which the nature of the medical report. Medical report relating intimately with the initiation of the human centromere anniversary. Man's mind is not good, it will not stop the scourge, disaster was such a deluge. So when I come into contact with them, they are extremely happy to welcome me, respect me. Currently, in Singapore, not only Buddhism, which gathered nine religious adviser sometimes I do. I do of nine religious adviser, I advise them not to focus on the work, but also interested in education.

 

   At present, why society is superstitious Buddhist view? You do not have the doctrine, the emphasis on religious sentiments shall not be able to solve the problem? Therefore, a focus spot high intellect, a new fully enlightened righteous solve every problem. In the scriptures of each religion has its beauty. Therefore, I encourage everyone to have teaching experience sermon, every religion should have teaching experience and sermon. We must work together, often exposed, often exchanging ideas, like the work of teaching experience our sermon new no conflict, no malicious criticism.

 

   I came here on the 18th, the previous two days was 16, I had attended a harvest festival of Muslims, as well as their festival season. Muslims in Singapore have two denominations, a Muslim sect that India, seconded rest of the Malay Muslims. Malaysian Islamic sect they eat festival on the 12th, I also have to attend. In fact, for many years I had to be good to them, so every food festival, the religion has invited me. Each food festival gods also invited me. On April 12, the Malay Muslim sect food festival, they invited the president, I and the president are their special guests. On March 16 the India Islamic sect food festival, their invited guests and more than a dozen roughly table, I was their honored guest. The daughter of the president is Na Dan also attended. Islamic sect elders and I said. He says the Buddha, bodhisattvas of us really well, we have a lot of money, because we often help them. 

 

 HAPPY (Practice)

   Currently, the followers of religions to lay Lam eat rice, because of lay Lam eat free. Offering 24 hour a day, in addition to three breakfast, lunch, afternoon with breakfast bread, buns, coffee and tea offerings without interruption. Because next 24 hours nembutsu nembutsu way and for years without interruption. So, when did you come to be entertained and are very tasty. Every day, it has more than a thousand people to eat. If on Sunday or the day the conference is roughly three or four thousand people ate. So he just said we have a lot of money. Two months ago, a delegation of more than 50 Catholic nuns from 40 countries around the world to visit and tour. We have entertained and ate lunch with them, we have brought the situation and report to them, they were astonished. They ask you to spend money constantly, so you get the money from? We told them, the money we spend is money Sakyamuni delivered to us. Buddhism teaches generosity, the more is more, the work that we do, all you can see. They reflect the incomes of religion they are finite, half human, financial and material resources are offered by us. So, for us they are very happy, very respectfully, very praise. They say Buddha, bodhisattvas our very good, I just said back to them as A Na of you are fine, but can not match the reality commitment as Buddha, bodhisattvas us. Why he is not interested in you? Because you do not care the teachings of which he made, which carry out. I told them, lay ashrams of Forestry is a typical example. Here, I must devote all its slopes, build ashrams here to become a model ashrams worldwide. Therefore, each week we are meeting criticism defects, quickly amended in order to have progress. You build ashrams didactic world, people around the world will come to school, they learn more and more to the prosperity here, the money coming. Generally, our money not only in Singapore but it comes from many places worldwide. They listened to me nodded. Such a moral copper, you have to hear the teachings of A Na, you must bring Islamic ashrams efforts that do, turn it into an Islamic ashrams model of the world. Since then religious Muslims worldwide will be learning about this, about this pilgrimage, so, you have nothing else lay Lam! I teach you a method that you have sincere effort to do, perform to the level standing in the world, is a good example, so everyone lined up. Conversely, you do not please the effort made, no Buddha, bodhisattvas that joy with you! Meanwhile, the world has many ashrams, like, Buddha, bodhisattvas have biased or not? Absolutely not. Important is that the Buddha's teachings have often brought us to "maintain life recitation, because the speaker". We need to understand the link word is performed, uphold the mirror to see. Every day, there are two known ashrams teaching experience, one year without interruption. Every day 24 hours Buddha, one year without interruption, such time period. Also two hours teaching experience, we opened 24 hours teaching experience tapes without interruption. So, you come here, want to hear of anything at any time, you can hear, want nianfo always possible. You build ashrams appropriately with space and time is given. The prosperity of Forestry and lay his wealth also thanks the factors mentioned above. Therefore, three types of generosity we have to do our best but decisions will be achieved. For offerings that said, lay Lam not buy any vegetables, tea, oil etc .. Thus, everyday things offered to people from where there? Because people know where offerings to others to eat without taking money, so everyone tries to bring everything back here for us. We use not all, not all the user do? We carry offerings for nursing homes, orphanages of other religions. We often make offerings to them, each a month were for their food, and they married. So, maybe you know the source of prosperity and growth capital of Lam from whence lay there. You can see the style of economies in Southeast Asia. Each of these organizations, professions and ashrams, the income is not much, so that laymen Lam income not only not declining, but growing again. 

 

   Last year, my first food festival in Singapore. I immediately think of the orphans in the orphanage, the lonely house in the nursing home. These people do not have anyone to care for, very poor. We invited them to a dinner to celebrate Tet, from time to 3800 people. Not we collectively invite each one elderly, orphans are officially received an invitation, it was all for their spiritual consolation. They are in a nursing home, a lifetime no one invited guest, so the invitation to give them timely. Then they keep them as souvenirs, they also feel that today's society has not forgotten them. This consoling spiritual than physical, it exceeded many times over. Last year 3800 people from time, which, of nine religious people are also invited. Lunar last year I employed. How food festival this year? We eat New Year, select the calendar year we made money out capacity, we invite religious leaders employed nine workers, have invited their guests combined. They are moving, they say his heart is the vast indeed. This year's banquet attended more than 8,000 people, we have invited the president and his wife as guests, visiting embassies of countries stationed in Singapore, hoping for them to see the unity among the races and religion in Singapore, at the same time ensuring that information is news all over the world know. Before a day of entertainment, we conducted an event of world demand for peace. Each day, an estimated 2000 people attended. We began to pray from 8 hours December 31 to 8 hours the first day of the festival. 20 hours of uninterrupted prayer for world peace. The number of participants was beyond my expectations. Had to 6,000 participants, it is extremely wins. After doing that, we tested back then noticed that the nine religious leaders have attended, they were very happy. They say next year to do really. How is doing really? They have made money. This year they have made money, but all the costs are so we come out. They say to each one of the religions are required to account, if they really do like it too well. So Ly Lam Nguyen layman confided to me. He told the religious leaders, they sincerely want to spend money, make sure the money will not be enough. We will completely responsible to give them peace of mind, do not worry about having to export to how much money, but we would like the whole responsibility. Next year, expect to see more than one thousand five thousand people attended, because all religions are about. So huge impact strength. It is a reminder of some fellow for me, truly, I do not have to think about it. The proposals are very good. They say he is an event of truly historic nature, far never had stories of religious communication in a place like that. In fact, in order to lay the foundations for peace in the world, we need to broker and to invite renowned US newspapers, as well as popular channels. This is the point where previously we never think of, just think about inviting embassies, this is what we need to modify the time. Next year, we intend to invite the mass dissemination of information such as magazines, newspapers ... to reports. Invite them to Singapore to attend the meeting of thousands of years of happiness. Because next year is the true new millennium happy. How you calculate? Up to a thousand new millennium is happy. A thousand years, not including the 999 already, still missing a year. So, 2000 is the year to the new century, the 21st century Starting in 2001, we are prepared to do the work of fullness, making good. Next year is the year the world really reconciled, nine religions are found sincere work. I think this is a very difficult job accomplishment. I worked two years in Singapore, to unite all religions, work is due to my solidarity goes twinning initiative with them. How to visit them? As I have said, that we extend the dining room serve many people. Vegetable oil, salt ... often give them, together with their friends to the fellowship. Had sex with their friends and then, based on that platform we move one step further, as the initiative to visit them. They have orphanages, homes for the elderly have, with some charity office, like Islam have entertained facilities and help people. Each one religion, we give them ten thousand pieces of silver. So, there are some who blame me. They speak for me as Buddhists should offer money to me, why I was giving it to other religions. I explained to them, was also explained to the fellow, hope people do not misunderstand. In the Buddha not you teach us that "boundless beings vows degree" there? Followers of other religions is not their proceeds? Already beings have an equal degree, Buddha says no boundless beings vows degree level is only for those who believe in the Buddha, which he tells us to give an equal degree. Mind your volume should expand as new generation. At the same doctrine that, I said to Christian, Christian, is God's love that, not only for believers of god. Humanity here, certainly not his followers that he taught equality and compassion to people living in this world. Therefore, we must take heart purity and equality of all beings broad, extensive offerings. Buddhist teaching center cover damaged state, vermillion world output, which is the true nature, the nature of it. So, Dharma is the law of equality, we must not only work hard in the church, but even those do not fall under the category of Buddhism, everyone expecting the world, we also need to do. They set up a nursing home, an orphanage founded, we have to help them? We must help them build because rarely anyone do this. I invested in ten thousand talents of silver, I have a part, this is a meaningful job is not that bad. I spend money for their construction is good. So, we worked that amount is too small, the center does not have good fortune. There is an old saying: "Mind the blessings great bulk". Therefore, attention must be given large amounts, certain not limited. Tolerance, owned by religious people look into a home. Gods that they worship in my eyes are the Buddhas, is Tathagata. I'm in the middle of their church, I worship no different from them. They are truly touching. Conversely, if observed in a subtle way, the one who had to incarnate Buddhas or not? All are idealistic Office and the only variable informal basis. Thus, ten retribution legal world, Secretarial dignified newspaper are manifested by the Buddhas. So, in the new Mahayana say, the Buddhist bodhisattva contemporary look to address all of them born into Buddhist Council, which is so ethically. So the blessings center large large large fortune then newly reborn as grace and liberation.             

 

   Time has run out here today, I have a few offerings to the fellow, so people can see the work we have done in the past years and reflect back what they have done for others workers.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTMENT.WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=THE EIGHTHFOLD PATH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.2/5/2015.
