The blessed experience of the Blessed One suggests that we rethink our own path of study, examine what we are thinking, talking about or acting daily, if they are greedy. We need to understand that they are the things that bring suffering not only to oneself but also to the suffering of others, which must be abandoned.
To Buddhism is to find enlightenment and liberation (Nirvana). Liberation is the state of no defilement, no longer the five elements (talent, identity, real, lob) governed, freedom of self, this state by enlightenment; Enlightenment is to see and know right and to behave in accordance with it. The process of achieving this goal is called "cultivation." Practice means to arouse right understanding, eliminate illusory illusions, and prevent defilements. The afflictions of different beings are different, the level of sentient beings is not the same, so they have to use a variety of different forms of education, so the formation of disciplines do not, such as meditation, Uncle, penitent ... remarkable thing, every means also to lead practitioners to enlightenment liberation, If not these two characteristics can not be called the means in the Buddha. However, the practice in Buddhism today, seems too focused on means - form, forget the spirit of enlightenment Buddha's liberation, is easy to lose direction.
 Thus, addressing the problem of cultivation is to refer to the modification of the "citta", ie, our daily cognitive reflections. According to the Buddha, the mind is classified into three categories: good heart, evil and mindless. Kindness is the mind that comes from the heart of no greed, no greed and no delusion; Evil mind is related to greed, hatred and delusion; An unconditioned mind is neither of good nor of evil. Of these three types of mind is evil mind is the cause of suffering afflictions for human beings, we need to get rid of this mind, kusala citta is to create happiness happy, to develop. Thus, the meaning of the practice in the Buddha is to stop the evil mind from arising, or change that evil mind into good karma, by monitoring the mind, preventing evil. This view, as recorded in Dvedh? Vitakkasutta,
Chu monks, before my enlightenment, before the Enlightenment, is the Bodhisattva, I think as follows: 'I live thinking and forked failure Games'. Bhikkhus, no matter what level of sex, any range, any harm, We divided the first; Any level of sexuality, no harm, no harm, we divided the second. "(P. 261) 
The content and meaning of the paragraph has just quoted two ideas that need attention. 1. Bodhisatta is meant for the time when the Buddha has not attained direct result, but ordinary people, this is different from the Mahayana scriptures describe the Bodhisattva, who has attained the virtue, higher than fruit. Arahant; 2. His method of practice is very simple, it is just the mind tracking, clearly distinguishing the types of thought, the kind of thinking which is craving for greed, anger and ignorance into one group, called evil. Thinking or akusala citta; On the contrary what kind of thinking is not greed, anger and delusion into a group, called the group of good heart. When they were clearly separated and divided into two groups, he proceeded as follows:
Chu monks, then I live not spontaneous, enthusiastic, ardent. I have the knowledge of tri: 'This range of games (range and harm) comes to me, and this leads to self-harm, bringing harm to others, bringing harm to both, destroying wisdom, Participating in defilements, not to Nirvana '... the Games (yard and range) are gone. So, we continue to eliminate, dissolve and the range of games (range and harmony). "(P. 262).
The state of 'non-liberal, ardent, diligent' is described here only for the accomplishment of the precepts and the meditator who is living in meditation, so it appears: , Meditation practice arises. Thanks to this wisdom, the Blessed One sees clearly the dangers of all kinds of thoughts of greed and ignorance, they are the source of defilements, the cause of suffering, anyone thinking about them. Into the body, not only harming the harm people harm both (social), so seekers happy happiness must stop, not to give birth. For example, the shepherds, the shepherds, and the keepers do not allow the cow to go to the garden to eat the rice, because the shepherds know well, because of the cause of the trouble or be beaten or cursed. blame. Also, the Blessed One saw the danger, the paralysis,
When bhikkhus, while I am not so liberated, zealous, so arrogant, when the separation of the game (cup and range of evil) arise, I have such knowledge as: This is not the extent and the harmlessness) that arises in us, does not lead to self-harm, does not lead to harm, does not bring harm to both, grows intellectually, does not participate in afflictions, leads to Nirvana. " (P. 264)
Normally, human life, if not thinking about good, will reflect on the unwholesome, and vice versa, thinking how are human-determined and trained, gradually into habits. From the experience of life, the Blessed One states that the kinds of thoughts that are prone to hatred and ignorance bring sad sorrow and vice versa. Si, bring peace and happiness so he trained his mind by not allowing the mind to reflect on the bad things, and always mindful thinking of good. Here is the meaning of the following verse:
Chu monks, if monks thinking, observing many of the problems of being a tendency toward heart problems was. Bhikkhu-bhagas, if the rate-thinking, watching more about separation education, he is abandoned sex. When the mind has placed heavy emphasis on sexual desire, it has a tendency towards sexual separation. Monks, if the rate-thinking, watching more in the yard ... (if above) ... if the monk thinking, watching more harmless, he refused harm . When the mind has been placed on harmlessness, it has a tendency to be harmless. " 
We have only one mind that does not have many minds, but because of the process of cognitive formation, as well as the cognitive function of the unconscious mind, so it is divided into different names, Mind king. This is not the subject of discussion 8 consciousness, so the writer does not analyze the consciousness (label, atrium, billion, damage, body consciousness), only mentioned the consciousness (mind) Object of awareness of the mind. In a moment, when consciousness is aware of any object, it is impossible at the same time to perceive another object, for example, when the mind thinks of good, it can not at the same time think of evil, and vice versa. Therefore, when our minds think of non-attachment and non-attachment, the mind can not think of the things of greed and ignorance. If one day, the mind does not think of evil, only thinking of good, That day was a day of peace and happiness. If all our lives live with the heart of greed, this life is meaningful, peaceful life, happiness is not far away - pure net world.
Human nature is greed for what you want, hatred for what you do not like, greed and greed are derived from ignorance, so ignorance is the source of greed and hatred, the formation of dry. Wanting to eradicate ignorance is the only way to get rid of wisdom, as well as to dispel the darkness only by lighting the way. To generate wisdom first restricts (the only) causes of greed arising, ie, not allowing the mind to reflect negative thoughts; Next to contemplation, to see the danger of them, these two ways mutually support each other, making the mind grow. This is the meaning of the sentence: " If Monks think, observe much about the range of glasses (cups, cups), he abandons sex (cups of field games, glasses).
Through this sense, we find that the method of the Exalted Master is not simple and effective, that is, by examining daily thoughts, dividing thoughts into two categories, Thinking of the greed of greed is divided into a category and reflections come from the infinite and unseen into one. After classifying the contemplation and seeing the thoughts of greed and greed are very dangerous, leading to harming oneself, harming both, being paralyzed, contributing to defilements, the Blessed One gave up without thinking them; On the other hand, what kinds of thoughts are in the infinite and invisible, are the non-dangerous thoughts, the benefits of the two, the growth of the mind, the cessation of suffering and suffering, leading to Nirvana. Continuing to promote this kind of thinking, he finally attains the goal of enlightenment.
Logically, we find that between the method of practice and the goal of cultivating the enlightenment of liberation, there is a close relationship. If one is greedy as hell, suffering is fruit, enlightenment is liberated. Excluding greed is ignorance, the completion of the new achievement fruit is the principle of common practice for everyone, can not be replaced by another.
The blessed experience of the Blessed One suggests that we rethink our own path of study, examine what we are thinking, talking or acting on daily basis, if they are greedy. We need to understand that they are the things that bring suffering not only to oneself but also to the suffering of others, which must be abandoned. It is important to take care of the anger and delusion in all its forms, it can stand in the ranks of the Sangha, lay Buddhists ... in the name of Buddhism to destroy the Dharma. We are the Tathagata disciples need to be alert to all temptations.END=NAM MO CAKYA MOUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.GIAC TAM.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTENMENT.VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.31/3/2017.
