how do we get to where the poor are, where the rich, or how to call the true sense of the rich-poor?
Carries the human condition, but why some people are rich, there are very poor people? Us how to get to where the poor are, where the rich, or how to call the true sense of the rich-poor? Someone is high the wide door, air-conditioned car, eat sung happy, full blessing; have traveled the arduous life, but the results achieved in the extremely tiny, can only provide some mouth eaten enough food for their families, or worse, when only feed themselves nor stand.

Cause where? In view of Buddhism, are so good-evil retribution past lives of individuals each way feel, created. Arguments about the rich-poor, who have no money although rice warm clothes, not missing anything, but sometimes feel tired daily work, both day and night without stars were peaceful; People do not have money, although every day struggle, but still live in relief, an order in, this is called "estate workers and comrades" (who, though poor but not poor lice). It also means that, happy joy of life, between the poor and rich are inherently create absolute terms.
Buddhism's view on the issue of rich or poor, poor and rich capital that does not have anything to distance honor of a personality. For example, the wash water is unclean, dirty, after cleansing is complete, with detergent before, actually no difference, this tells us that human life decades, dreamlike illusory image cells, poor-rich, hard-happy can only get that from within his own mind only. So, there are people though only rice soup frugally but could not bury their inner joy; a local wealthy people, but still sorrow, sorrow. Speaking a little deeper, that if the existing center triangle great Christian world, then, even though poverty itself no ground plug awl, but still feel full, prosperous!
Life of Buddha can be seen as a testament most vivid and accurate. Four spring-down-fall-winter, he wore a suit of chalk algae (pamsukulika), still felt himself sauntered in, wearing the yellow jersey precious silver, nor see any pride. Rice was able to pickle vegetables, it can also of great food; Wind can eat lying fog, it can also reside where hung purple pink floor; can alone in the mountain and forest, then you can live with the four practitioners.
Seen enough, the heart of the Buddha for the poor wealth, abject prosper, manic thinking success or failure, which is not good and evil bad beautiful lingering, bothered, nor pursue worldly education ceiling, just customize adapt to circumstances charming environment! This is the greatest wealth of the Buddha.
Not only the Buddha, the Grand Master Hoang Nhat behind right (1880-1942) of the modern era, also said that this world is almost nothing caused him to feel bad. A handkerchief was old software, salty foods are vegetables, running throughout the day also, living in a small cottage also, in this world everything has a taste of it, something for his signature site also has its extreme. University Professor Hoang Nhat motto sexual minorities live, who looks on the poor so that he, definitely is agonizing, but he left feeling all very nice. Once, Ha Ton fun seeing the situation as Grand Master Hoang Nhat eat radish pickles, they said: "Radish pickles taste indeed. Perhaps like the human right of University Professor Hoang Nhat, can enjoy a proper way as true ".
Now I would like to send a job proved: A person with money to live in a high-rise housing, many facilities have the most modern high-end, life is affluence, extravagance. Beside him home with a small house torn stale, and have a poor couple who live there. The couple even though life is not well off, but the couple live together in harmony, warm, caring, their lives are relatively happy. But on the contrary, people have money in the upstairs living in cars, are always treated as a social work of companies that felt annoying, due to attempts to defend, preserve their reputation, fame and fortune that every day feel unhappy, feeling always feel anxious, restless. They wondered to himself: "I have such money, why be sad like that. Our next-door neighbors who live in the house torn shabby, why are they so happy? ".
Someone said to him: "You do not want to sell off negativity? Just bring out twenty thousand dong (RMB) brought gifts to the impoverished neighbor next door, they immediately will afflictions ".
Twenty thousand contracts, for which said person's money, is really brows in rolls. Yes! After listening to the other person, he generously donated to the poor couple next door. The couple suddenly received two hundred thousand dong, felt overjoyed. But, instead of sick dread, dark to the negativity. Amount need to place here? In drawers, lockers? Not safe! To down under the bed? It does not guarantee much! Under the pillow - just like ruminating, tossing and turning all night can not sleep. Through a few days later, because of the money, they left a brawler by unknown how should use. The couple lost nearly so emotional for so long; then reflection, realized that his money makes them suffer, they eventually brought the money returned to the same employer.
This story tells us that fame can sometimes increase the negativity and harm to humans. Long ago, when the disciples commented on Yan Hui, Confucius said: "Currently the Association has, especially knitting plant, which speak most moist, illegal migration Rating, restive workers priority period, any improvements in any field communication" (Nhan rather gentle recovery, a basket of rice, a water gourd, in alleys, others unbearable, but Islam remains unchanged own pleasure); also Mahakasyapa - disciple of the Buddha, between cemeteries practice also feel calm comfort. Ancient Chinese poet Tao Yuanming (about 365-427) in "Eating and drinking" (Drinking) thank authors : "Thai buttoned down east glass, travel south course is painted" (Gold Chrysanthemum picked under hedge East / Mountain South blowers stand looks satisfied) ... The above examples are all rich poor states can not take the money with or without measuring. People can poor, but the poor can not be introspective. Energy source inside is much endless, never took off, with never users, the most important thing is that you have to exploit, dig it up or not? If you have to exploit energy resources inside, new friends are truly wealthy.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH TAM GIAC.( VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN PRAYED BUDDHIST NUN MONASTERY ).THICH CHAN TANH.( VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY ).AUSTRALIA,ADELAIDE,SYDNEY.25/7/2015.
