But the religious leaders of the existing religions in the world, does not have a meaningful * noble, a profound life of Buddha Shakyamuni. Every action, every gesture, every word, to each his silence are valuable lessons for us. If we learn of His teachings without understanding his life, then our learning even partial, flawed.

Definition The word Christmas Delivery 

Standing in the Buddhist word, when it comes to the presence of Shakyamuni Buddha in this world, people often use the term birth (ie a birth fun, make joyful, bright to earth) ; or the present (ie appeared in the flesh, for our eyes to see the ceiling); or Christmas birth (ie from a high place to a low place to birth). 

Three words that have three different meanings: The word used to praise the birth honor a birth rank; places the Buddha manifested the media functions are also available, but because the human eye can not see, to see clearly out; Christmas birth word connotes the Buddha in a higher realm, better that lowered this earthly realm. Three words are so different though, but can be used to indicate the birth of Buddha. Conversely, when a person commits born is called "reincarnation". Early pregnancy means being good or evil karma or reincarnation required for good or evil retribution. But Christmas does not function or the market means being human bondage industry, but by where compassion, want to benefit all sentient beings, so dear to appear voluntarily launched in time to save sentient beings; God finished the collector passed away, in endless problems out themselves living dead. 

Circumstances and the seed of Buddha Shakyamuni 

Christmas Buddha in central Indian origin, is now central Nepal, a country along the slopes of the Himalayan Mountains, is one of the world's highest mountain range. The scenery there is very beautiful; to spring flourishing country is like a great flower garden. People in the parish was very plain food. The reigning king was Suddhodana, a king of the Sakya line, is a great family life has dozens successors ruled this country. Mrs. Queen Maya, is also a line of kings who had longstanding. both the King and grandparents were religious people have more life, have great virtues, worthy parenthood nations. 

One day, in the city of Kapilavastu, the capital of the King, with l chickened stars, kings got together to celebrate dissipated. Queen Maya, after offering floral offering is in the palace, then, subject to noon alms food, clothing for impoverished people. Upon returning to bow slept, she dreamed that a white elephant with six tusks from out of nowhere down, tusks declaration that the right hand side of Ms. Chun on. She brought her dream to the King recounted hearing. The king ordered him to invite the guess dreams. The prophets predicted that: "The queen will give birth to a boy with talent and virtue." The King was very glad, because the throne from here will have descends. 

By the morning of April eighth lunar (BC 624 years), at Lumbini, Kapilavastu way of 15 kilometers, Queen Maya is sightseeing, saw flowers blooming Countless new priority, fragrant, her right hand with scythes, the Prince has just appeared right there. 

Date of birth Prince, in the Kapilavastu, scenes are incredible fun, cool climate, plants are flowering bear fruit; rivers, canals, ditches, wells are in full; nowhere on birds and halo lighting all the ten directions. 

The King was overjoyed invite prophets to see Minister Prince. Among them, there are hermit named Asita convent in Himalayan mountain, predicts that 32 generals Prince for good appearance, it will become a saint. But the King to his son just wanted to make a king to patrilocality only. So Shuddhodana United want to change their children's fate, so named for the Prince's Siddhartha * (Siddartha) by Sanskrit, means "He who will hold the position that we must keep". Positions that Shuddhodana United meant here that is crowned King. He did not expect that the truth of his positions as officials Buddha. 

Queen Maya after Prince was born seven days, fun too because I did see the noble duty, and have washed wreak retribution should she be flesh and born of heaven to earth realm. The King delivered the Crown Prince for the queen's sister Ma Ha Pajapati nurturing. 

Talent and virtue Prince 

Prince each year grow, the appearance even more restoration to the throne, as unearthed talents multiplied. He had a more healthy person, a brilliant intelligence. From writing career until now martial, Prince does in school with him at the next, he must ask the professor rot statement, because no longer enough to teach anymore. Until First teacher reputation at that time the surface so as to give up His She always. 

But, although the financial effort than people, extraordinary intelligence to be in position to gentlemen supremely, Prince never seemed arrogant, disdainful. He has a very gentle attitude peaceful, impartial and fair. Compassionate people, injured his creatures to none, h have the opportunity to help, no matter how much trouble he was not from the spokes. Therefore, he was on King beloved father, under god the people respect, my admiration. 

I II ties Shuddhodana United To Prevent Household of Prince Chi Export  

The more love and treasure the United Shuddhodana even fear their children will not stay with you, which will in quest Paths to a saint, as predicted by the Taoist sage. Especially since found greater, Prince seemed to think the more distant, and the Prince's face were not perky like childhood, King was even more afraid that ancient prophecy will * implementation . Therefore, the king and his courtiers arranged things insidious plan to bind the Crown Prince in the house alarm. He commanded the castle built three magnificent to Prince changing accommodation for the weather year-round, and select each hundred concubines talented singer or above, good for entertainments, dance for Prince . But until then he was doing well enough for Prince l married with a princess son Giac Thien Yasodhara, a beautiful princess and extremely virtuous. 

Prince was forced to married and have a baby furniture is Rahula. 

But, despite a life too full: no title glory, the castle palace yet, no music and dancing, yet his wife and child, Prince still see how heavy his heart anxieties, concerns questions. He lived his life to the scene this is not true happiness, which is false, ignorant, just makes life more severely distressed. He saw the need to find a way out, a life of true, meaningful and more beautiful. 

Get Out Four Generals suffering in life one day's low l filled day, Prince follow his father into the fields see people plowing. Spring Landscape, glance, it is beautiful, yet lush greenery, all racing birds singing; yet clear sky, breezy spring breeze. The scene seems peaceful, very peaceful. But Prince soul is not a superficial soul, judging a mess. Rather, he looks deep into the scene and painfully realize that earth is not as beautiful joyful glance. He sees and cattle farmer who worked hard under the scorching sun, in exchange for a bowl of rice, most of the grass. Bird compete devour insects are struggling * on new land plowed furrows. Also during that time, in the bush hunters are shooting for that bird, and in the nearby forest, they are aggressive hunters prowl. It was a relatively close fratricidal scene, not a moment to stop! Just because the pieces of food to people and animals live that used every means possible to kill each other conveniences not know abhorrence. He clearly perceived as suffering subsistence. 
 

One other day, his father's permission to walk outside the four King of the gate to get in contact with the subjects. Out the door to the East, he met an old man's gray hair, the teeth fall out, ignoring eye, deaf ear, bent, gradually shifting rod once hesitant about to fall. 

Men's Black, Prince saw a man lying on the grass pain, are crying groan, excruciating pain. 

By the west door, he saw a dead body lying between the road, sticking flies bu promiscuous, and bloated, looked very disgusting. 

Three old suffering, pain, death, adding to the impression fratricidal in life that Prince had noticed when going to the l plowing, makes him sad, incredibly merciful beings. 

The other day, he out the door North, met a monk staid physiognomy, unflinching composure as people passing by the road unscathed. Prince at the heart arises an affection for the monk. He hurried to greet and ask about the benefits of the practice. Monk replied, "I practice the decision put an end to all the constraints of the earth, * in the demand for ourselves from suffering and enlightenment to universal beings are liberated as her"  

The answer hit with ambition that Prince is cherished for so long, so he clenched delighted wise. He immediately returned to his father would also ordained. King was not accepted. Prince requested that if the king father 4, He resolved to postpone vieic monkhood, to return citizens worry blankets, water treatment. Four kites are:  

1. How did the child not old MAIC 

2. How strong child forever Painless 

3. How will the child live forever does not die 

4. How do the people all suffering 

This makes four troubled father, not solve anything at all. 

I V. The in quest of enlightenment  

Shuddhodana United, knowing the intentions of Prince ordained, even anxious, to find out how to prevent, bound him in "providing fun". But once the Prince has decided it does not have the strength to be his obstacle. 

One night soldiers guarding occasions admitted and concubines sleeping after a lavish, Prince sneaks rise, * when I last looked at his wife, then wake up name groom Channa, saddle, and two teachers and students fled from the wall. At the time that night who h eighth month, and he is 19 years old. 

After jettison from royal life, Prince enters the search sdsau * Path. 

Initially he came in with your religious asceticism. But this sort of person to live a hardship, fastings, sunlight, fog beams, operating body can damage a gruesome way. Seeing such a practice does not work, he advises that you should give up his spiritual practices, but they did not listen. He took injuring them, so find somewhere else to practice. He went out one place to another, where listening has a religious enlightenment, He come to school; but to where he saw their guidance remains narrow, low bars, unable to free the man all. From there he practiced alone * place, night brooded to enlightenment, forget eating away every day sleeping body emaciated. One day, he exhausted, lies down on the grass paralysis, and was a shepherd for his grass to pour barking awoke. Since then he realized that if the desired result, the body must be healthy to be healthy, it's not going to be forgotten. 

When we find ourselves well enough to fight in the final battle with the dark ignorance and desire, and bring the light of enlightenment, he sat under a tree samadhi Bodhi and vowed that "if we fail director the meat pieces fog, we also decided not to leave this place. " 

I V Enlightenment  

Gautama Buddha was sitting in samadhi 49 days under the Bodhi night. In 49 days he fought with them in inner negativity invaders as greed, hatred and delusion, comfortable, romantic ... and struggling against Thien Ma by Mara Three Weeks commander. 

After winning both in inner enemy both external, be mind cleared, he suddenly became enlightened. 

During the night of the 49th, in the second watch, he proved to be effective, "Additional Par Ming", visible by all his past in the three worlds. By midnight, he proved to be effective "Minh City Eye", sees all nature of the universe and He * its structural causes. By the fourth watch, he proved to be * Results of pain and suffering to control your methods to get liberation from samsara legal status *. 

From that day, he was supreme Truth, a Career "Enlightenment", known as Buddha Shakyamuni. On his enlightenment is calculated according to the lunar calendar day of December 8, at the day star arise. At the time he was 30 years old. 
IV worthwhile Gia Find Path In The Production Of Buddha  

The victorious enemy soldiers in the field, often touted as a hero. The more you win the more numerous enemy troops were cheered as heroes the world. But even so mighty ones, like Napoleon, Genghis Khan, multipurpose vehicle (* Cear), himself? so hard won win their users more difficult. Buddha has won both external and internal, have overcome the enemy Mara * Desire. Buddha truly deserves the title of Dai Hung mainland. 

He's not the right word * in his own fight. He fights for love. But love here is not just to love within the family narrow *: injured parents, wives, children, friends. Love here is loving beings, all realms of life. That it deeply love wide as heaven tanks, eager as the mother loves her child. Buddha truly deserves the title of Universal Compassion.  

* Leave this love, he was happy to leave their palaces throne, his wife and child, male or dancing and smell delicious taste to live a life of austerity, frugally, needy, between the sacred forest water poison. Once that leave things that life is precious to the above, he does not regret a single moment, you want to return to enjoy again. The proof is that Mara had sent his daughter Gia Du posing as she begged him to call back provision, which he is not a bit bothered retrogression. He deserved the title of Great Joy amnesty. 

So now, whenever justified canopy honors Him, being unable not reflect the deep meaning and proper that men throughout history have honored him as Daxing, Mainland, Dai Tu, University Bi, Colosseum, the Great Drain.
