In  India , not far from  Rajgir , water  Magadha , in the village  of Sa La  Da, a  family of  clans  Brahmin  very  rich , that is Ni sentence Lu Da Masterpiece Three have  assets  can  compare  With  King Bimbisara  at that time. Great Ca lettuce birth in   this rich family  . His first name is  All Bat La Da Na , because  the mother venerable  hang around trees  Every bat is  then born to  venerable , hence the name given to the baby trees. As an only child in the family ,  Mahakasyapa  very  parental love ,  nurture , her nurse to 4, also hugged the feeding, bathing, games a lot of people. Mahakasyapa blessed minister  full,  private nature smart , at the age of 8 was studying  literature , math facts,  performance, painting ,  music ,  astronomy , astrology ...

At the height,  Dai Ca lettuce is different from  others of the same age. With the  pleasures  in his life is not  keen , including  issues  cuddle . Mahakasyapa  often expressed  distaste ,  impure , like away from the crowd, particularly in  alone . Even  Parents ,  Dai Ca lettuce  will  not  remember, in the time away from home. So when  obedient  parents  get married ,  Dai Ca lettuce  does not share bed with his newly married wife named  Dieu Hien , a girl of heaven and the sky is incomparable. Each person has his own mood, From the wedding day Dieu Hien until  more than ten years later no one to say a word. Silent  for too long can not be silent forever,  Mahakasyapa  asked  Dieu Hien  reason  why always sad face. Dieu Hien  replied :

Karma  of the  Great Ca lettuce

Mahakasyapa  ordained  prime  virtues First Da

30 years old,  Mahakasyapa  leave  the familiar  into the woods to find religion, is when  the Buddha Gautama  attained enlightenment  under the root  Bodhi . It was not until two years later  Mahakasyapa  still no  ascetic  any help  satisfy the aspirations, health workers offered initiations  headlining  the physician  States Ba. Mahakasyapa  know Buddha and come into  Rajgir , on the day he followed the  Holy them  to  listen to France  without  official  debut with the Buddha, because the heart wants to scrutiny. From the pulpit,  

At  the Linh  Son Assembly , when  the Buddha  put up a flower,  Dai Ca lettuce smiles , Buddha knows  the Dharma  people have  inherited  the following legacy . One day after completing the  sermon of the  Buddha, he  took a shortcut to meet  Ca lettuce  at a crossroad . On the way to see him  Mahakasyapa  officially worship the  Buddha, please be  ordained  to continue  their religious education . Through meetings,  Venerable  Buddhist  back  Tinh Xa  Truc Lam , here  Buddha brought legal  Four , Transparency of the coast , disclose to  Ton . Like religious capital  unfortunate Dau Da  after meeting the Buddha,  venerable  still  continue to  practice  religious  dignity . Happiness  has the  capacity to  purify  the  soul, when practicing this virtue should hold 10 things.

1. Choose in the  desert .

With the  Buddha, the  Buddha advised not to be too  ascetic , as  the asceticism was an  extreme Buddha  abandoned after being  exhausted  in  Benares , with five brothers  Kieu Tran Nhu . He has  found  a middle path , and  achieve the status  of enlightenment  liberation . With legal alms  equality  sometimes  venerable  compliance , particularly  almond momentum  he remained  untilbreath  finally , nobody budge, so he was called the Career  Top Da First . Stature influence  of venerable  huge, dominating all affect  others, such as the bright light of the sun  naked light of the other, so he also translated Cuisine Optics . No one can shake it, so he is honored to be the first . Stature influence of venerable huge, dominating all affect others, such as the bright light of the sun naked light of the other, so he also translated Cuisine Optics . No one can shake it, so he is honored to be the first . Stature  influence of  venerable huge, dominating all  affect others, such as the bright light of  the sun naked light of the other, so he also translated  Cuisine Optics .

Next level  Dieu Hien

When  the Buddha  returned to  Kapilavastu to  teach  the kingship. Religion  has  followed . To fit  the teachings  of equality , and also according to the  request  of  Ananda ,  the Buddha for  Di Form  Ma Ha Pajapati  ordained  brand is  foster mother , the first woman in the  congregation  of the Buddha. See the  sample  of the Buddha was  ordained , 

Wait 3, 4 years did not see  Mahakasyapa  return ,  Dieu Hien  to disperse  assets,  giving help to  farmers  and poor people and go  ordained  as practicing  pagan complicity in the image  bank of the Ganges . Dieu Hien is believed to be  religious,  but because of the beauty of many humiliations, the  author  thanks a  bhikkhuni  to pick her up. When she came back to the  nunnery  also because of the beautiful beauty   she still can not  avoid  the murmur of the crowded place. Friendly obstacles women find themselves  in their vocation  very much, Dieu Hien  not out  begging  again, no  contact  with  the public  to avoid crowded places. 

Appreciate  the plight  of  Dieu Hien , daily  venerable  split half portion of rice and have someone  bring  for  Dieu Hien . Born again chatterbox, who curiously has the nature of  non-market born of jealousy and is between two people make longer  the standard . To avoid the  gossip ,  Sun worshipers  do not share the rice for  Dieu Hien  as long as. Bhikkhuni  Dieu Hien  also want to be light women, save night and night, NET is  repentance  tons  spiritual advancement  now, stock is  Additional network , is  the Buddha  praise. The venerable  Mahakasyapa very  happy , with  both sides  religion and his life are  done  fullness , all preoccupation.

Poor Older Men

With  the aspirations ,  blessings were  given to the poor when they were  begging.  Pharaoh often avoided wealthy houses  , and paused in front of poor houses  . One day in the  Rajgir  alms  venerable  see an old woman  beggar  sick lay moaning on a roadside,  venerable  approached  and  graciously  visited :

· Old woman! Why in the midst of sickness was she lying in the middle of the earth and just covering her body? Where will the rain and wind make her illness worse, she has no children or children? 

· If there were such things as he had asked, I would not lie moaning here. Do you have anything for me? Why do I see him too poor and begging  for food , I have nothing for him. So what can you help me get out of my illness and get out of  poverty  ? 

I am a  bhikkhu who  is  studying morals  with  Shakyamuni  and is  practicing ascetic as  well as begging but she goes to the rich and buy poor, sell me poor to make  rich and  rich. . 

What does it take to sell? I had three days without something to put in the abdomen, early this morning with rice riders poured water, I improvised a little too top, but the water was  smelly  not dare drink fear diarrhea. 

· So she brought that country  giving  me a little, called sowing  blessings ,  hopefuture  luck  lucky, become  wealthy . 

Listen  Ton author  explained , her heart filled with  joy and  forgot the uncleanness of her body, she brought fresh water rice offerings for  venerable . His  joyful  reception , and fresh drinking water is almost dried rice. Seeing that the old lady  was very  happy ,  Sun  worshiped her  blessing  and then  set  outon the way .

A Nan  Bowl

In the  congregation  of the Buddha,  venerable  Mahakasyapa  keep  dignity  how much the group  Army monks  often  wrongful  loss  of dignity  much. There was a Buddha in the  Jambudhan , a group  of monks  in uniform to collect  bowls . There are two types of bowls, bowls of iron and porcelain bowls. But when   producing the shape of a bowl is not the same thing, the material also has good  stuff bad , the color also has many. Water  Su Ma  produce tin bowl, water bowl Advantages producing red Aging, Aging Cells produced water bowl black ... no worries Army Group meditation Practice day by day,  look for  good bowls,  look at the show , your clinics like pottery, porcelain. Knowing  the state  of hoarding bowls, the Buddha  enacted  law:  monks contain the bowl of Ni vi  nirvana three times . 

In that time he  Ananda  is  above Vietnam  offering  4 bowl of water  Su Ma  very precious, and he brought the bowl then offering to  Venerable  Mahakasyapa . At that time, the  author was  not present in  Shiva , is  traveling  in the distance, keeping the bowl is  not real world , do not know how to handle,  Ananda  took the presentation to  the Buddha . Buddha asked:

· When is  the  new Big Show back? 

· The Blessed One! About after 10 days. 

During the  lecture  before  the mass , the Buddha of all  praise  praise  the virtues of  Mahakasyapa  and advised  the public  should follow the example,  especially the  continental populations monks . Finally, according to  the love  of  Ananda presented  with the storage of excess bowl,  the Buddha  revised the law and  announced :

· The  monks  are allowed to take bowl balance in  time  for 10 days. 

Through  events , Buddha  institutional gender  laws monks  holding bowls balances,  we  know the  position  and  influence  of the  venerable  Mahakasyapa for  congregational  very high.

Inherit  the Buddha

See  Mahakasyapa  directing high moral esteem, Buddha and  congregations are  condescension ,  Shariputra  and  Moggallana  request  venerable  engaged in  missionary activities , but  venerable  rejected for traveling  announced teacher  had you  smart Decorated  like  Xa Loi Phat  and  Mien Kien Lien ,  Phu Lau Na ,  Ca Chien Dien . Religious authors  focused on the lives  of dignity ,  minority sexual contentment , because that is also indirectly  spread  the teachings  of  Buddha . Venerable  monk keep  the momentum momentum , when the  author is  also in the jungle,  meditation  or  meditation  under the tree ,  white bones  in the parcel of land tha governed by the rain, wind and wind ... Until the  age of  beard  silver hair  euphoria,  body  thin  venerable  still never  neglect . 

Seeing Buddha did not want to  ask  Venerable  about  living  in  Tinh Xa  States Members . Knowing that reverence  is not in liturgical life, but  he came to  see life with exercise, they must follow the general framework and had to stop  practicing virtues Top Da , more in wild forests is not  troublesome  what to whom, when need sow  field of merit  for it  goes to the  alms , when  fatigue  is not going to be it for  fruit  vegetables in the forest,  life used to day. Practicing  the virtues of  the momentum  was a direct  strengthening  of the congregation ,  indirectly benefiting  sentient beings , Consolidation of the  Sangha  is  the  condition of inheriting the Buddha . The Buddha  asked the Buddha  to continue  the  chosen path . Knowing the inability to shake his  mind  , the Buddha directed towards the  mass  teaches:

· Monks! Mahakasyapa  always concerned for  money map  Dharma ,  heavenly foreign drugs  or  forces  of the powerful can not  subvert  the Dharma ,  the internal situation  messy ,  Sangha  corrupt lack  of dignity , is the  condition  the make  Dharma  Kill " Lions  in the  lion eat  lions ." So if the  sangha  is  strengthened ,  solemn virtue  , Internal situation  stabilized  harmony indispensable  Dharma  is  eternal . To  reinforce the Sangha , activities  must take seriously, the rules  must be respected to preserve , the rule also is directing us still. Who can preside over inheritance Dharma organ label  of one must be Mahakasyapa , it was evident even in Assembly Linh  Son, when we put up the branches shower , Mahakasyapa  immediately smiled . To reinforce the Sangha , activities must take seriously, the rules must be respected to preserve , the rulealso is directing us still. Who can preside over inheritance Dharma organ label of one must be Mahakasyapa , it was evident even in Assembly Linh Son, when we put up the branches shower , Mahakasyapa immediately smiled . To reinforce the Sangha ,  activities must take seriously,  the rules must be  respected to preserve,  the rule also is directing us still. Who can preside over  inheritance Dharma organ label of one must be  Mahakasyapa , it was evident even in  Assembly LinhSon, when we put up the branches  shower ,  Mahakasyapa immediately  smiled.

Great Ca lettuce entered  Nirvana

In the  disciples  of  the Buddha ,  Sariputta  and His Holiness  Mahamudra Nirvana in front of the Buddha,  Nirvana  after the Buddha has His  great Kaga . After the  compiler  classics  in animated  States Quat Xa , about two or thirty years later,  feeling  the body was old,  tired  for centenarians,  Mahakasyapa decided  Nirvana . The venerable  look to Him  Ananda  is  traveled  to various Wish  legal organ , request  Ananda  followed  the mission  inherited propagate the Dhamma , and not heavy  fatigue ,  venerable  8  enshrines relics of  Buddha to  prostrate  offerings .

Recognition  and  Conclusion

To allow  alms ,  the Buddha  taught to  equality  is not  fond acceptance ,  discrimination , but  Venerable Kassapa  just go  begging  poor, while he  Purna  , the  alms  of the rich, so both Him Blamed by the Buddha. However ,  according to the author of Ca lettuce, the poor are pitiless ,  deserving  to  comfort  them, from  that conception  , whether one acts  a  gesture  small yet  venerable  , all  signify virtues  of compassion  immense  endless . Therefore, an increase or continue,  people  are respected  venerable ,  halo  tenderness of the  venerable already dominating  influence  of others. Therefore, his name is also translated as  Moi (light).

According to  Buddhist  Mahayana  after Buddha  attained Nirvana ,  Mahakasyapa  be honored as  patriarchs  first, while  Buddhist  Theravada  to glorify him  eminent . Because  the views of the two sects are of different divergent biases, it is natural to think of a  different teacher  . That is one of the points that  Buddhism  has two  sects . Buddhist  Mahayana  fond of meditation, about  teaching special transmission outside , not up  writing  only  interested press  center, so through denote  the Buddha  put  shower ,  Mahakasyapa instant  smile  (the enlightened  weak just  posting flower goofy behavior ), so worship Him as  Su . Wish canopy faculty have all endorsed speaks  sense  as follows:

·  Posting flower  realization only, organized religion renaissance Profile, Burma interior ministers held his feet,  the copy of the  telecommunication  transmission log , translate chlorophyll  relative excess  Dhamma  permanent bone league. 

Flower see instant enlightenment, the first patriarch,  continuous  four feet seven ministers preach, six lamp life, leaves connected together,  Dhamma  always  in vogue ). 

Buddhist  Theravada  mostly  meditating , kind  defilements  tidal female, but targeted towards  liberating  individuals  as key ... To  liberate  indispensable to  morality  laws, the word  discipline  means  special award Escape , the Buddha seeking the direction of want to  release  samsara  for  beings . When  the Buddha was  about to  enter Nirvana ,  Ananda  asked Buddha:

· After the  Blessed One  entered the Nirvana,  we learned who was the master. Buddha said : "Take  the precepts as a teacher,  precepts are  still the religion." Eminent  was the  prime law  First, with  the purpose of  maintaining the network's circuit  Buddha  long term ,  while  also approaching horizon  of liberation , so  Buddhist  Theravada  worship Him  eminent  as  their masters . 

Overall throughout the  life  venerable  Mahakasyapa  always guiding the virtues  ethics  least contentment education  is key, life  introspective ,  behavioral gestures ,  words eat voices  in a framework of practices. So another look at the seemingly found  negative ,  passive ,  weak ... but in life there are those who forced himself to be in the mold  of suffering religion  faith, worry cultivate virtues. The  whimsy ,  active  participation  and the attraction of  society , of  life  can be easily  accomplished . Cai actively  eradicate  bad habits in each self of  man is hard  perform . Victory is easy, win is very difficult. 

The venerable  Mahakasyapa  always self-oriented goals, so  he came to become  a  human  model  in the  congregation . Virtues of  Venerable  has a level of  influence  is extensive. The Buddha  was also  respectful to  see the  author  as you, once the Buddha gave way to half the court to  lecture  for  Religion . Thanks to the happy momentum  after the Buddha's  Nirvana Venerable was  congregational  worship  crowned  obvious waste in the  compiler  of the first in  the United Soap Quat . Today to  maintain  religion  benefiting  beings , Sangha  we  just imitate  Venerable  Mahakasyapa , to  enhance the  virtues  ethics  in life. Person  as  morally  always respected, whereas not  as a  moral matter to prosper where Finally  ,  the life is  eliminated .END=NAM MO CAKYA MOUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTENMENT.VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.29/5/2017.
