Proverbs  Vietnam  has a saying: "The king shall be king, he sent the temple keeps scanning multi-leaf". The   king's proverb is always  protected  and  continues to be  the title, while the hereditary  father is connected to the  plow, deep  meaning that  speaks of blood,  genetics  that few people think of the  word meaning. that,  proverbs  Vietnam  has added a sentence  like : "I do not like the tone just wing feathers." The  French proverb says , "Father, how are you?" (Tel père, tel fils). So with society  we  can  establish  equity  on the level of  materialbenefits  , and  genetic hereditary  ,  we can  hardly be  leveled  , if  people  do not transplant, create a uniform climate.   Between domains. Although no  legislationformally , the Japanese have been quietly breeding so today's Japanese people stature high, all called Japanese dwarf, in addition to  problems  Japan has  a lifetime of  living  material , full of nutrients. From that fact  shows that  the problem  of blood  genetics  is very important for  human beings . In the old days in  the Indian Prince Siddhartha  capital being from line  surveys to profit , are  inherited  blood  clever  ingenuity, thanks context of  social promotion ,  PrinceSiddhartha formidable  up to  become  Buddhist  Thich For the Great King of France . After  Rahula,  whether  naughty  or  playful , 

      

Rahula  Ages Missing

Is legitimate grandson of King  Suddhodana  and the grandson of King  Good Sense ,  Rahula (Rahula) very pampered pets live  happily  during  childhood. Prince  Siddhartha not only give  pleasure  but always rejected the throne, so in the future people  successor  King  Suddhodana  certainly  is  Rahula . That is also  the reason  La Rahula  is  affectionate  in  the palace . Besides  Rahula  is fun  only  of  Yasodhara , 

After three years of  enlightenment ,  the Buddha  new  return  to Kapilavastu visiting The King,  Di form ,  Yasodhara  and  Rahula . All the people nostalgically welcome the  return  of  Prince Siddhartha  now  became  Buddha  Shakyamuni , the Sultan   also personally welcome. Yasodhara  and  Rahula  did not go, only upstairs to look. La Rahula is  always with her mother, so she has not seen  her father . When Buddha  with  Sariputta  and  Moggallana  to supply  Yasodhara ,  Rahula  knew  his father . But with  intelligence  readily available  even 10 years old,  Rahula  immediately think Buddha no longer a  father  's own  Rahula  which is a notch  higher from  women of all  beings , with  innocent  Rahula  often claim are  in common  with Buddhism. Whenever encountering Buddha,  Rahula reclaims the Buddha for  his inheritance . 

· Boy  Rahula  insisted ask me  fortune , do not let things  assets  fragility  of  life , we do not want  Rahula  inherit  the throne, wanted him  ordained  for moral liberation . So we want  Sariputra  to guide  Rahula  out of the family . With blood  Buddha vaccine  availability ,  obedience  venerable Shariputra ,  Rahula ordained  predicate  novice  first in the  congregation , accompanying the principalities in the Buddha about  Tinh Xa  Truc Lam ,  

Industrial director  Rahula

Sa Di  naughty

Although  ordained  a novice  but still young,  Rahula  no  sense  clearly the importance of the  way  the new and not enough  knowledge  to  perceive  the Dhamma . In  Sangha  Rahula  like a machine, the steps  elder  replica heard it, did not know  the responsibility  of a  novice  to do what? When  Sariputta received more of the head of the infantry into the  novice ,  Rahula  began to have friends and often played naughty games  , deceiving others. While in the forest of Wenquan, outside of Rajgir , more bureaucratic,  bourgeois ,  laity  to ask where  the Buddha  was preaching to visitors,  Rahula  often teased by  just did not  hit the spot. 

If the Buddha in  Truc Lam Tinh  ,  Rahula  said in the  Xà Quật , if the Buddha in the  Xà Thuà ,  Rahula  only in  Trúc Lâm , these two places are  separated  by 5 miles. Many were not content with Rahula 's teasing  , but  Rahula  was a  novice, As the Buddha belongs to the noble family , no one dares  to criticize  or blame. The  mischievous  deceit to buy long fun also to the Buddha. Buddha  was not happy at all, for a  novice  , but  habitual  regal, intentional removal has not been,  the Buddha  himself to reprimand thermae garden  Rahula . 

Lord Buddha teaches  Rahula

Upon  hearing the news of the  Buddha,  Rahula  rushed  to meet him. Seeing  the Buddha  very imposing  from  afar,  Rahula  brought water to Buddha to wash his feet. Wash finished, Buddha only water in pots asked  Rahula :

· Hey  La Almost  La! Can this drink water? 

· The Blessed One! Can not drink 

· Why? 

· Because the water is unclean. 

· Hey  La Almost  La! He is like that country. The time  to  leave  novice  is long, nearly 10 years but with  bad habits  , he has not finished. Water pollution can not drink, the body  of people who unclean the  gas  is not different  ? Forms ordainedthat our mind, the longer  the mundane  all can not flourish. Who left the  secular must keep the heart  pure ,  behavioral gestures  gently, speak sweetly, choose your words carefully. Renunciation without rid  of three toxic  impurity, no different from the dirty water, dirty water will pour it,   

After saying,  the Buddha  told  Rahula to  take the pot to go to the water and bring the pot back, when  back to the  Buddha asked:

· Hey  La Almost  La! Can this pot contain  food  ? 

· No. 

· Why? 

· Because the stain is full of pots. 

· Hey  La Almost  La! Dirty pots do not contain  food  , dirty bodies  are the  same. He was a co-  novice  that body, speech and mind no contract, no  practice of morality, concentration, and wisdom,  the mind is not  clear ,  saying  playfully  naughty , body covered with  defilements , lost  majesty , as What is unclean water, dirty pots. What pots do not hold then do? 

· Saying the words, Buddha took the foot kicked into the pot that made the double broken pots, he asked again: 

· Hey  La Almost  La! Do you regret the pot? 

· No. 

· Why? 

· Because the pot is dirty, there is nothing to regret! 

· Hey  La Almost  La! Because the dirty pot is not broken when it breaks. Like  people  do not love you, because you have many mistakes, including talking to play. Bring a list  ordained , speaking not in truth,  majesty  lack  mature , deceiving others, who  loved  thee? 

The Buddha said to bring the old story to teach more. Once upon a time there was a king preparing the elephant for the battle, his armor, his tusk, his bag and his sword. When elephant battle, he  used  all the parts of his body, Front, hind legs, head, ears, ivory, tail, but not the tent, always shrunk. If you do  not protect the hose, you will be shot by a shotgun. Buddha  advised  Rahula  need  careful words , like elephants  protect  the hose, open mouth  lie  whether said player  -favored network  of people who will lose. The elephant was out fighting without knowing how  to protect  the tent. People are  not  careful ,  consider the  words to keep telling lies,  lie  will not have precious and do not have any evil  do not do. So people  please try to keep your mouth keeps his mouth. Listen to the Buddha's teachings, Rahula  reincarnated  vows to  modify the  posture , leaving the lie, quietly quiet cultivation of  virtue . Lies will not be precious and there is no evilwithout doing. So people please try to keep your mouth keeps his mouth. Listen to the Buddha's teachings, Rahula reincarnated vows to modify the posture , leaving the lie, quietly quiet cultivation of virtue . Lies will not be  precious and there is no  evil without doing. So  people please try to  keep your mouth keeps his mouth. Listen to  the Buddha's teachings,  Rahula reincarnated vows to modify theposture , leaving the lie, quietly quiet cultivation  of virtue .

Tu  hum humiliation

Although  Rahula  did  vow  to preserve  discipline ,  careful  words  moral progress  honey almond ,  Buddha  preserving  venerable Shariputra  always  restrain  Rahula  by the work  daily . According to the Buddha,  Sariputta entrusted  the cleaning of the garden to  Rahula . One day after  performing finishing work  everyday ,  Rahula  into the  auditorium  to hear  the Buddhist theory of  law until a new dark  back  room. Rahula  saw an increase paved guest  robe and bowl  of  Rahula  out to get a room  to sleep , under the guidance of  management . For a quiet silence quietly following the  dharma  ,  Rahula  hugged the  bowl  to sit out. Suddenly  raining heavily rain,  Rahula La Y  hugged the  bowl  to the toilet. 

Because of the rain, the snake found  shelter and crawled into the latrine. Because  Rahula  sat in  silence, he  did not see the snake in the flood. Even that evening someone told the Buddha or Rahula  was occupied by a guest to occupy the room and maybe  Rahula  hidden in the latrine, the Buddha went to  Rahula . When illuminating the latrine, the Buddha saw  Rahula lying on his knees  in a corner, the serpent circled in a corner. Because the lights snake lying  motionless , and  Rahula  were called out and led into the Buddhist  Vihara . The next morning, a meeting Buddha  Sangha,  issued  regulations ,  novice  can  share a  room with the  monks . 

From that  Rahula  was  sharing  a room with  Shariputra , both teachers and students  work closely  together. One day, two teachers and students go  begging, because glass  monks  than  novice , the  Forum Vietnam  bring good things offered to  monks , and the  novice  Rahula  receive fewer nutrients as the food as determined sesame, vegetables .. Although he  has vowed to  endure, purify  his body and  mind, his   pent-up air pockets, he now has  the chance to  rise. With   age-old thoughts growing, nutritional needs as alms  to  face  Rahula  Highway melancholy strokes, Buddha asked  why  Rahula  the back  trouble . The Buddha teaches  Rahula  to honor the elderly, and also go to school where they do not need food, eat to live but not live to eat. 

The Buddha  advised  Rahula  should pay attention to the practice, should not be too concerned about  eating ,  food  is only a cure for hunger. However , He also told him Shariputra should take care of the  health  of  youth  by  attention  to  diet for the nutrients. One day the two teachers to  Wang Xa  alms round , on the way unfortunately  two teachers meet a guy duong  . He  blocked the road , cursing taking sand away in  the bowl  of  Shariputra , and Slovak clubs  Rahula  dust bag and left. Because the weak can not fight back, head bleeding. Again,  the gas packs are not clean, face Rahula  anger burning and oil hug crying  miserably. Sariputta is  in dire need of help:

· Hey  La Almost  La! Age was 18.19 soon to be  ordained  ordination, ye  determination  spit clean  habits  3 toxicity, by  secret virtues  of patience , who  meditator  should not enmity hatred, bring virtue  compassionate  love  all  them Birth , in the lifetime of praise, condemnation, glory, humiliation is not worth the  attention of  practitioners . It is interesting for  practitioners  to remember that in  the world ,  the power  of patience  can win all  power  other great though nowhere. 

As soon as advised,  Tonks  just wound the wound to  Rahula . When about to  Vihara ,  Venerable  presented to  Buddha  the situation  just happened on the way the two teachers and students go  begging . The Buddha teaches  Rahula :

· Hey  La Almost  La! Patience  is  a  noble action, noble, want to see the Buddha, legal, close to him to cultivate  patience to patience . Who knows  patience  soul will be  relaxed ,  peace ,  eradicate  the  scourge ,  wisdom  arose,  wisdom  is valuable for cutting off the root  of ignorance ,  greed ,  ego . People who have  intellectuals in  common with  the power  are still not  polluted . Patience  is  the condition  to  increase the coast ,  praising  the Dharma , the  salary to  liberate from  samsara . To further disclose,  Rahula  is qualified  to  progress  and evidence, the Buddha  further encouraged  : 

· Hey  La Almost  La! To continue the holy line of grace, do not look at the  reality of all things, do you see something  standing still  ? All  dynamic  in  birth to kill , to kill, you need to bring  wisdom  throughout the  impermanence ,  not self  of  all things including his  body and mind  , so clear that the new mind does not attach to anything To cultivate, hold eight thousand  postures  and three thousand  adherents , to soon  be liberated . You can not stagnate on  the path  of implementing  Buddhism . Listen Buddha  wake ,  Rahula  immediately  awakened, for all  time ,  dedicated to  cultivating  majesty  fact happy . Finally  Rahula became the  first  virtue , the Buddha praised and advised to cover the minds  of homosexuality all beings bring  beings  through the shore  of liberation . 

Receiving  Tinh Xa

Young age at  participation  activities  of  the Sangha , just  obey  Buddha  crash majesty  fact well , at 20 years old  Rahula  them and is widely  respected , because  that La Almost La credit they  donated  most . One day  the Buddha  in  Kapilavastu lecture , there is a  summoner  to seek  refuge in the Buddha  but very favored with  Rahula . After taking  refuge  in the same village of  Kapilavastu, Mr. Truong Gia offerings for  Rahula  all the things  needed . Possessing a  falsefortune   to build an  abode , dedicated to  Rahula . The  island was   so spaciousthat  Rahula  moved there permanently. Along the way  sermons  of  monks  also often stopped by  remote provinces  of  Rahula . So  Tinh Xa  always crowded out on. Thinking  Vihara  which they worship so I have  the responsibility to manage, Bourgeois  diligently  frequented Vihara  discussed with  Rahula this, that and that, sometimes even pushing his  powers  of Abbot Rahula . As a practitioner of patience  always silent  before each action you bourgeois , and also because they have not heard the Buddha prepared the world to receive  and manage remote provinces  how should the occasion back Truc Lam , Rahula visiting BuddhistComments . The Buddha  taught that: sometimes even pushing his powers of Abbot Rahula . As a practitioner of patience always silent before each action you bourgeois , and also because they have not heard the Buddha prepared the worldto receive and manage remote provinces how should the occasion back Truc Lam, Rahula visiting Buddhist Comments . The Buddha taught that: sometimes even pushing his powers of  Abbot Rahula . As a practitioner  of patience always  silentbefore each action you  bourgeois , and also because they have not heard the Buddha  prepared the world to receive and manage remote provinces how should the occasion back Truc Lam , Rahula visiting Buddhist Comments . The Buddhataught that: and also because not hear the Buddha prepared the world to receiveand manage remote provinces how should the occasion back Truc Lam , Rahulavisiting Buddhist reviews . The Buddha taught that: Also, because of not listening to the Buddhist regime how to receive and  manage the Nurse should be on the occasion  of returning to Trúc Lâm ,  Rahula La Buddha comments . The Buddhataught that:

       

· In the  teachings  of our work of the  sangha , every credit they were not  involved  in, premises,  Vihara  of  Sangha  lay  Buddhists  do not have the right to  manage . Whether anything including  remote provinces , after having offered the right to  property  belonging to  the monks . 

Listen Buddha  explained  clearly ,  Rahula  about his presentation with  bourgeois. Did not  understand  Buddhism  to rely left  assets  to  build , of course he has the right to  manage . So much  respect was  given  to  Rahula  , and now the  rulers  resented  Rahula  , seeing  Rahula  as the possessor  of wealth . One day  Rahula  had  to  go to  Sravasti , just as  bourgeois  visited  Tinh amnesty , because regardless of available care found  Vihara  deserted,  bourgeois  hastily brought  Vihara  offerings for a  Bhikkhu  other. When the  return is complete , find  the sentient monk  who lives in, with  no  interest  in disputes , letting go of everything,  Rahula  hugging  his bowl  back to  Jiuntu  . The strange  Buddha asked  the reason ,  Rahula La  presented to the Buddha, The monastery  was  recaptured by  the emperor  and  offered  to another  bhikkhu  . The Buddha thought, who do not understand the  Buddha Dharma  that went to  work the truth is a difficult thing, then the Buddha  convened the  Sangha  and taught:

· The objects brought  alms  to the people,  believe it  donated back to you, you do not get  reception . I say this not  bias , advocate  rights  for  Rahula , rules in the  congregation  must be  defined  clearly to avoid  trouble  later. 

Rahula entered  Nirvana

Of the birth and  nirvana  of  Rahula  two  legends : A theory that  Rahula  was born in  Prince  Siddhartha  19, another theory that  Rahula  was born  in  Prince Siddhartha  25 fresh. There  are two  legends about the  Nirvana  of  Rahula . A theory of  La Raha Nirvana in  front of the Buddha a few years, other theories recorded when Buddha  Nibbana Rahula  kneeling beside the Buddha. According to the  Da Yasodra transmission of the  same age as the Buddha, But the  78-year-old nirvana is two years ahead of the Buddha. Also  Rahula nirvana  no more than 50 years before the Buddha and  Yasodhara .   

Recognition  and  Conclusion

In the  Saints ,  Rahula  was the   youngest monk , at the age of 20. True love  most life  most unexpected  time, just  obey  Buddha calculated giddy abandon of  youth , religious soon  Rahula  associated documents  holy status . At longer  novices  and both times have received  novices ,  Rahula  denotes  calculated  spontaneity ,  innocence ,  mischief  of  youth  yore . When compared to  generation  youth  of today, we no longer naive innocence  as  generation  youth of his father. We  should not be distorted, must  frankly  admit  that, in the  current child  we  are lacking guidance, accident vandalism, addict,  drug  addiction is widespread among youth. Families , schools need to find  measures  to correct , put  youth  in order. We can  not worry  about  economic life and  forget the  youth, the  next  generation  of the country.  

The above is about the general aspect of  society , while the face of   young monks and nuns ,  we must imitate  Rahula La  in  virtue  of religious . In the  young  Rahula  is playful but the child play  innocent ,  innocent , not tolerate  pollution ... So after listening to  the teachings  of Buddha and  Sun Yatagat ,  Rahula  was easy excluded are games to tease  naughty  and  outsourcing  hone  majesty  fact happy to witness  holy .  The young monks and nuns should close themselves within the framework of the pagoda, the  impermanence of  samatha, the  practice of  precepts, concentration, wisdom to  become  a good monk, useful for the  church and for the nation. 

There are learned tu, there are  real ,  virtue ,  our bodies  in  the congregation and in  society  new firm, new  long . The ancient people have said: "Miserable incompetent, drunkenly drunk" (just scared, not worried about  status ). For  life, Privacy Hanh  First,  Rahula  was standing  long  in each  Sacred them The ten principal disciples  of  the Buddha . 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.
