8th-13th in the city of Calika, Koliya (-577).

 

The Buddha taught Meghiya how to live alone in solitude [1]

 The Buddha entered the 13th at Caliya, in the city of Calika, Koliya. Meghiya Meghiya is doing false for the Buddha. One day, begging for alms in the village of Jantu, Meghiya saw the mango garden next to the river is very beautiful and convenient to meditate, should ask the Buddha to practice meditation alone, The Buddha taught the monk to live alone in the desert. Although the Buddha advised him to wait for another substitute attendant, he repeated his third request. The Buddha allowed. Mr. Meghiya was so happy to go to the mango garden on the river bank practicing meditation alone. But when I was alone in the desert, I felt the thoughts of greed and anger often pervaded my mind. Frustrated, he returned to the White Buddha about the obstacles. The Buddha taught:

This Meghiya, who knows to live alone, must first have a spirit of self-reliance, not rely on the help of others. Then you have to know self-sufficient strength of the doctrine, force and force. If one realizes that the mind is not mature, that is not enough catechism, force and concentration, then the novices need the following five things to support the mind is mature:

1-  There must be good intellectual property, ie, fellow initiates have the wisdom and virtue adequate to guide themselves.

2-  There should be precepts to help you stay in mindfulness.

3-  Have a convenient opportunity to learn the teachings of enlightenment and liberation.

4-  Need to diligently diligently practice meditation.

To  remove exceptions, prejudices, wrong ideas to achieve right understanding, right mind and wisdom.

Meghiya, who wants to cure craving, anger and delusion, must practice the Nine-Tails, Compassion, Irregularity and Customization.

The Nine Commentaries  is an observation of the decay of the body through the nine stages from the moment of death until the bones become ashes. It is so clear that our bodies are impermanent, unclean, transient, worthless, obedient, caring. But the human body is a precious means that can help us achieve rapid results. Nine Commentaries help us  cure love .

Compassion  is the observation of the suffering and suffering of all living beings. Life is suffering, so we should not increase suffering but should try to alleviate the suffering of sentient beings. Compassionate helps us  counter anger .

Impermanence  is the observation of the process of birth of the universe in accordance with each cycle of life, head, nibbling, no, to counter desires and delusion, to see that life as dreams, like drops of dew, like Lightning, like the image in a water bubble, like a flower in the midst of nothing, does not deserve the work of art, scramble, preserve. Impermanence helps us  deal with greed, lust .

Custom Consciousness  is to monitor the outgoing breath in order to  counter the scattered mind , and to  nourish mindfulness .

Meghiya, you should practice these four practices regularly so that your mind may be mature before you live alone in the desert. 

9th-14th in Jetavana (-576)

 

Visakha Visakha  [2]  offers Pubbarama (Indochina) 

People come to Jetavana's dermatologist hear more and more. Among the new students are female lay Visakha, just 20 years old, is considered as good master Sudatta Anathapindika. Seeing the number of mourners at the Jetavana monastery was so numerous, she made a donation to her beautifully landscaped garden east of the capital, Sravasti, to build another monastery base for the monks. This land is as beautiful as Jetavana but the area is narrower. With the mobilization of Moggallana and the contribution of friends, Visakha built many halls and meditation halls. A large lecture hall is erected in the center of the garden. When newly completed Vihara, Venerable Sariputta proposal named  Vihara Dong Vien  (Pubbarama, Purvarama) and large amphitheater in the center of the  amphitheater dialysis (Migara-matas-pasada). "Loc" is the nickname of Visakha.

Female Visakha was born in the city of Bhaddiya in Anga. Anga is located on the banks of the Ganga River, close to the eastern border of Vajji and Magadha. She is the daughter of millionaire Dhananjaya, her mother Sumana Devi, her grandfather is a millionaire Ram, whose real name is Mendaka [3] , which she felt loved.

In the 10th year of the Visakha, Lord Buddha visited the city of Bhaddiya to the Brahmin named Sela. It is said that the Buddha is staying in the Jatiyavana forest, Mr. Ram said grandchildren:

-This is Visakha, today is a happy day for you and your grandfather. Then prepare to go with his grandfather to visit the Buddha and hear the Dharma.

The Visakha was happy to obey. Upon arrival, she bowed to the Buddha and reverently sat aside, very polite manner. After listening to the Buddha's sermon, her grandfather and grandmother are attained sotapanna.

At that time King Pasenadi of Kosala and King Bimbisara of Magadha were acquaintances: Videhi, Queen Pasenadi, queen of Magadha, and Mallika, sister of Bimbisara, queen of Kosala. One day the Pasenadi king of Kosala came to see Bimbisara of Magadha, saying,

The Great King of Magadha has five great and rich talents: Jotiya, Jatila, Ram, Punnaka, and Kakavakiya. I only asked one of them to stay in Kosala.

After internal discussions, King Bimbisara agreed to let Ram and his whole family settle in Kosala. When the delegation of King Pasenadi and the Ram family with their son Dhananjaya camped overnight at a beautiful ranger seven miles south of Sravasti, Dhananjaya told the king:

"The King, in the capital Sravasti is very crowded, but our servants are very crowded. So, if approved by the king, we would like to settle here.

King Pasenadi agreed and named the new city Saketa, now Ayodhya, on the banks of the Ghaghara River, a tributary of the Ganga River.

At that time in Sravasti there was millionaire named Migara, whose son Punnavaddhana has just reached the age of marriage. Mrs Migara asked how she wanted to choose his wife. Punnavaddhana replied:

-Which girl is full of Five Beautiful Woman, then she is new.

The Beauty of a Woman is Hair, Lips, Tooth, Skin and Fresh Child. Mr. Migara invited eight brahmins to come to the house for dinner, then asked them to find a girl who had five beautiful beads to get married to Punnavaddhana. Once the story has been won will be rewarded.

The book records that Visakha is as powerful as a man and very charming. Her hair is like a peacock's tail, when it reaches the ankle and rolls upwards. Her lips were naturally bright red. White teeth like ivory, firmly and shine like two rows of jewels. The skin is smooth like a golden lotus petal has just hatched. Until he was old and had many children, Visakha still had a beautiful figure of youth.Visakha is more intellectual than man, wise in worldly matters as well as in moral terms.

At the age of sixteen, Visakha went with the women to the river to attend the ceremony.According to local custom, on this holiday men and women playing on the riverbank. When a young man sees a beautiful young woman passing by, he comes to give her a wreath representing her desire to choose her as his wife. Suddenly a heavy rain fell. All passersby ran away to find shelter. Visakha still ponders finding a home in the rain. There are some brahmins on the road that look surprised, asking:

-Why do not you rush to get wet?

-Yes, I can run fast, but I do not want to do that.

-Why so ?

-As if there was another king dressed in the imperial court, suddenly dressing up his pants, hastening to run into the palace was not right. For example, a statue of the imposing king, wearing his or her jewelery without stepping on his head and running off the street, is also a spectacle of the eye.As respectable respectable monks should not be holding the bowl in the street. Also, women running off the streets like men lose all the decency.

The brahmins happily thought that Visakha would be the ideal wife for her son, the millionaire Migara, in Sravasti because she had enough beautiful women. The Brahmins took on the name of Punnavaddhana, the millionaire Migara, giving Visakha a golden garland. Then a few days later, a solemn wedding ceremony was held in the presence of King Pasenadi. Migara millionaire, from the capital Sravasti to the city of Saketa, married Visakha to his son Punnavaddhana. In addition to the precious dowry and precious jewels, Dhananjaya, her father, gave her instructions before returning to her husband's house [4] :

1- Do not speak ill of husband and father-in-law with outsiders. Nor should the story be told to the outsiders. (Originally: Do not bring fire to your house).

2- Do not repeat the narrative or the story of the other people talk about bad husband.(Originally: Do not bring the fire outside the way into the house).

3- The house should only be given to those who borrow and return.

4- Do not give people who borrow items that are not returned.

5- They have to help themselves by being poor, whether or not they are paid back.

6- To sit properly adapted. When I see my parents-in-law came to stand up.

7- Before eating, make sure you have enough food for your parents-in-law and your husband.Also watch out for home workers get enough food.

8 - Before going to bed to observe the house, table chairs are clean order. Door bolts carefully installed. See if domestic servants have fulfilled their obligations, and whether their in-laws have gone to bed. So housewives often stay up early and, unless sick, should not sleep.

9- Have to see husbands and parents-in-law as a fire: Every time you have to work with your parents-in-law or husband, be very careful as when using fire.

10- Parents and husbands must be revered as saints (sassudeva).

Her father-in-law was a loyal follower of the Nigantha sect (also known as Jaina). One day he came home to a large number of naked monks. When they came, Visakha was called to pay homage to the so-called Arahants. At first heard the Arhat, she happily stepped out. But when she saw the naked monks, she came back, not to bow. The Nigantha angered, confessing to his father-in-law how to bring into his house a female devotee of the Buddha. They asked him to evict her out of the house immediately. The millionaire, because of the Ram family's persistence, must advise them on their new anger.

One day, the father-in-law was eating a delicious porridge of porridge in a gold bowl. At that moment there was a mendicant coming to the alms gate. Visakha stood aside to see her father.Although he saw but he still ignored, continue to eat as usual. Seeing this, Visakha reverently said:

-Mark teacher, please joyfully step into another house. My father-in-law is eating bad food.

The millionaire misunderstands her libelousness, angered her, sent her servants away. But all the servants in the house valued her so much that no one dared to touch her. Visakha was politely presenting:

"Father, I see that you have no mistake to change to be expelled father. After the wedding, when he was about to leave his parents' house, his father invited eight of his father's kinsmen and sent him a brocade. His father said, "If my daughter does something wrong, please thoroughly investigate." So, please invite them to judge whether you are guilty or not.

The millionaire agreed, inviting the other eight relatives, explaining:

-I was eating porridge in a cup of gold when my daughter-in-law said that I was not clean. So you point out to him the error and get him out of this house.

Visakha explains:

-Dear Sir, my dear, what happened is not so true. When father and son are using porridge, there is a mendicant in front of the begging. My father-in-law feels ignored. I think my husband and I do not want to do good deeds so I say, "Teacher, please come to my house and my husband is eating bad food."

People see Visakha not guilty, just to swing the mendicant to another home. His father-in-law saw that too and ignored it. She then sought to persuade her father-in-law to Jetavana to hear the sermon preaching the Buddha's teachings through her noble teachings. But he definitely refused to go.Visakha said:

"Father, if you are afraid of going to Jetavana, I ask your permission to take the Buddha once to give him a chance to listen to his teachings.

He agreed. When the Buddha arrived at the convent and the lecture, Migara, her father-in-law, sat in the chambers. He finished listening to the results of Tu-momentum. He was delighted and thanked the bride for leading him into the path of true liberation. Grandfather:

"Visakha, my dear daughter-in-law, thanks to you the rest of my life has gone through a good turn. My dear, dear father, I will now look at you as a mother. It is a good day to take your father to Jetavana for refuge.

"Father, please do not take too long. I just try to fulfill my duty only.

From then on, Visakha was nicknamed "Migara-matas", which means Migara's mother (Loc, the deer). By the time she gave birth to her firstborn son, the Buddha was invited to the convent and gave the initiation (naming) to the baby. She named her son is Migara to everyone from questions about the nickname  E dialysis e  her. On this occasion, her mother-in-law heard the Buddha's teachings and attained the results of the completion. The family of Visakha's husband from now on became a happy family of Buddhists. Visakha gave the monks bowls at home every day. In the afternoon she often went with a friend named Suppiya to Jetavana to hear the dharma and see if the mendicant would need anything.

In the early summer of this year, she offered Dongviet 's quintessence, east of the capital, Sravasti, to lecture Loc Dau, so that the novices had enough shelter. This monastery was built by the great Moggallana monk in 9 months. On the day of self-cessation, she came before the Buddha to make eight petitions as follows [5]  :

1- Give to the monks during the novitiate season until the end of her life.

2- To bowl the monks to Sravasti.

3- To bowl the monks leave Sravasti.

4- Offer food to sick monks.

Provide food to those who care for the sick.

6- Give medicine to sick monks.

7- Barley to monks and nuns.

8- Offer bath to the bhikkhuni.

The Buddha happily accepted. Later the Buddha himself entered six times at Dong Vien Temple.In many times, the Buddha advised women as follows:

Be active. Pleasant temperance.

Always gentle husband preferred although her husband does not bring all happiness.

Never use careless words, meanness, lack of ceremony, husband angry.

Respect all who are honored.

Clever, quick, stay up early.

Devote to the health of her husband while her husband is working hard.

Want what she wants and try to do.

The woman who does the above will be reborn in the world of the gods. [6]

Visakha has contributed an important part in many other areas related to Buddhism. Sometimes the Buddha taught her to reconcile the disagreements among bhikkhunis. At one point she requested the Buddha to issue a few precepts to the monks and nuns. She is considered the most meritorious woman in the Buddha and also the most important female role in the time of the Buddha.

Due to dignified dignity, gracefulness, clever language, honored hospitality, fervent spirituality, she is loved by all who have met her. She was fortunate to be the mother of ten sons and ten daughters, all filial. She died at the age of 120, with no hair on her head.

The Buddha spoke of Visakha as follows:

"Teachers, like a craftsman, use a large pile of flowers of all kinds to form beautiful garlands, Visakha always has the initiative to do good deeds .

The Knowing Buddha economic theory to live alone (Bhaddekaratta [7] )  

He entered the 14th Sravasti of Kosala with the presence of great sages Sariputta and Rahula.

At the Jetavana clinic, Thera had very little talk with anyone. I like to go alone, work alone. He does not offend anyone, nor violates any precepts, but he likes to live alone, not really in harmony with the masses. One day, after the sermon, the Buddha called the great Thera up and asked:

"Thera, who likes to live alone, go anywhere or work, wants to avoid being in touch with others.Is not it ?

-Well, that's right. I often hear the Sun teaches the novices to live alone in the desert.

You teachers, listen to the teacher, Tathagata will teach the teacher how to understand the One who is  living alone.

One who knows living alone is the one who knows to stay in mindfulness. He is aware of what is happening in the present moment, in the body, in feeling, in thought, or in front of him. He knows life in the present moment, not looking back to the past, not thinking about the future. Because the past is no longer, the future is not yet. Life is present only in the present moment.

Hey, how are you looking for the past? Finding the past is thinking that in the past our form was like that, our feelings were like that, our status was like that, our happiness was like that, our suffering was like that. Originate such thoughts and minds are bound by the sad past of joys. It is about the past.

Hey teachers, what is the future? Think of the future is to think that in the future our form will be like that, our feelings will be like that, the happiness we will be like that, suffering we will be like that. so and the mind is bound by dreams or fear about the future. That is the future.

Master, living in reality is living mindfulness in mindfulness. Living in reality does not mean living letting go of pleasure or sorrow in the present. Because living letting go of pleasure or grief in the present is forgetting reality.

Master, who knows to live alone, is the one who knows to stay in mindfulness, even though he is in the middle of the crowd. People sitting in the jungle without mindfulness, letting ghosts of the past and future haunted and haunted, is not the one who knows how to live alone.

Then read the verse as follows:

Do not look back,

Do not think about the future.

"The past is gone,

"The future is not here yet.

"Watch life

"In the present moment.

"The author stays

"Firm and carefree.

Be diligent today

"You can not go tomorrow.

"Death came to a sudden

"There is no bargain.

"Who knows how to stay

"Night in mindfulness,

Tathagata called

"The One Who Knows

After reading the verse, the Buddha thanked the great Thera and told him to go down. Buddha does not directly praise or criticize. But after the method, the great virtue really understand the Buddha.

The Buddha taught Pasenadi how to donate at home [8] 

One day King Pasenadi stood on the terrace looking down the street, seeing thousands of mendicants walking in long rows. The king asked, the guard said,

Every day, there are thousands of mendicants coming to Anathapindika, Culla Anathapindika, Visakha and Suppadasa to receive donations for food, medicine and daily necessities, according to their wishes. layman.

The king of Pasenadi also hears that Jetavana sent to the monastery and the congregation every day to enter the temple of the king. Buddha replied:

Buddha, the Buddhas never give life in the same place every day, because many people look forward to see the Buddha.

If so, please the Buddha to the first time and then sent a great virtue daily guide 500 masters to the boy at the king temple.

The Buddha accepted and entrusted to the virtues of Ananda. From that day on, King Pasenadi himself personally invited and sat down and ordered the 500 monks led by the Venerable Ananda to lead the temple. The king did not let anyone else care about this. By the eighth day, the king was busy with the tide, forgetting the offerings. The mendicants say together:  E addition no one dares king care of the offerings without orders. So we should not stay here any longer. Ể Then many came out. The next day the king also forgave the offerings, many mourners also leave. On the third day the king also forgot the offering, all the masters left, only the great virtue Ananda sit back and wait. The soldiers saw to take the food out to bowl for him to use. The king came to see only the great virtue Ananda is eating life and much food left. The king is angry at Jetavana's monk who meets the Buddha, saying:

I'm wrong to prepare food for 500 people, but only Mr. Ananda to the mother. Waste a lot of food! Please tell us why other masters do not come?

-Kay, perhaps because the masters lack confidence in the King should not come. Great Lord, there are nine things that make the mendicant have the right to decline the invitation to the house of offerings, or to arrive without sitting down and speak French. Nine things are [9]  :

1- Homeowners do not stand up further.

2- Not welcomed.

3- Do not cheer invite sitting.

4- Hide precious food.

5- There are many, for little.

6- Have good food, bad food.

7- Lack of ceremony in the gesture.

8- Inferiority in speech.

9- Do not work hard to hear the dharma.

Then the Buddha turned to the mendicants:

"Good teachers, if the family practice well nine things said, is to show confidence and respect for the Three Jewels, the teacher should accept the invitation to the house of offerings, when to sit down, Pray for the landlady to receive many blessings, live in silence, and speak the dharma and answer the questions of the landlord to encourage the landlord to believe in the path of the Fa to achieve long-term happiness in life. now and future.

King Pasenadi from fake Buddha left, abdominal thought  E I to do to get the confidence of the Buddha and the Sangha? The best way is to marry a girl in the kinship of the omniscient Ể . Shortly after, King Pasenadi sent a messenger to Kapilavastu to marry a Sakya princess who was second. After deliberating with the courtiers, King Mahanama implicitly gave his daughter Vasabhakhattiya (Vasabhaksatriya), who was a mother-in-law, to give to Pasenadi. Vasabhakhattiya was a beautiful girl, the son of Mahanama, and had been sitting at the same table with the king, was very pleased. A few years later Vasabhakhattiya was born Prince Vidudabha (Virudhaka) and Princess Vajna of Kosala.

The Buddha taught the children against the word of compassion [10] 

One day, while begging, the Buddha met a bunch of children are catching crabs in the field to play. They let the crabs race. Those who lose, they break one leg or one to punish. Sometimes the crab won also broke one leg to accept the other in the next race. The game looks attractive, they like to clap their hands, cheering up. Crabs that lose their legs too much will not be able to crawl, they stomp on their feet and throw them into the field.

Children see the Buddha and the teachers go, the children looked up and then bowed down to play crab torture. They play a game of cruelty without knowing it, because the crabs are always silent, not crying anything !!! The Buddha arrived, stood looking at the children and said seriously:

-You, stop, do not play like that. If the child has sprained legs or broken hands, then the pain?

Master, there is pain.

The crabs were broken and the broken leg was like that. Do you know?

The children stood up, silent. The Buddha continued:

The crabs know how to eat and drink, as well as their parents and siblings. You hurt the crab so you also suffer both parents and siblings. Just like when you are sick, your parents and sisters have to worry. The crabs who have broken their legs can not eat, they suffer miserable hundred times. Well, you do not play foolish like that anymore.

The children expressed remorse. At that time, see the Buddha and the teachers are standing around the children, the road people also stopped watching. Taking this opportunity, the Buddha teaches both children and adults about  compassion . Buddha said:

-You, we all want to live peacefully and happily. The animals also like that, they also want to live peace and fun. So we have to make sure all species live peacefully and happily. We must protect one another's life and bring joy to one another. If we can not bring happiness to others, we should try to avoid further suffering . All animals, whether large or small, whether on two legs or on four legs, whether crawling on the ground or flying out of space, or swimming underwater, also have the right to live peacefully and happily. We should not kill each other, hate each other. We should help each other, protect each other.

As children, as well as a mother who offers protection for her beloved child, each one of us must also open our compassion to bring joy and happiness to living beings and to know suffering While walking, standing, lying, sitting, our hearts must always carry the love of all species. Let us rest day and night in that love. In this way, we will find that we are the first to be happy.

After teaching, the Buddha told the children to drop the remaining crabs down the field. Children gently cradled each crab drop down the field. Buddha told the children to go home, then he and the mendicants silently continue to beg for alms.

10th-15th Lower Nigrodha Garden, Kapilavastu (-575)

King Suppabuddha was swallowed up by the soil [11] 

From the capital Sravasti of Kosala Buddha to Kapilavastu. During this time, the Buddha was suppressed by the king of Suppabuddha, drunk on the verge of insulting him for marrying him, neglecting his wife and children, causing Yasodhara to suffer, and causing a great many The family in Koliya and Sakya royal families are saddened by the loss of their husbands and children. The Buddha silently returned to the Nigrodha monastery. Ananda Ananda surprised the Buddha asked:

-The Lord, what is the cause of what happens?

- Such occurrence also due to many conditions before the Tathagata, Suppabuddha and Devadatta. But due to negative karma today, seven days later, King Suppabuddha will be swallowed up at the foot of his castle staircase and will fall into the abyss of Hell.

After drinking wine, listening to the staff report, Suppabuddha laughing said:

-Okay, I will prove to everyone that Gotama is a lie.

Upon reaching the capital of Devadaha of Koliya, King Suppabuddha completed his necessary supplies to the seventh floor, the last floor of the castle; put two athletes to keep the door on each floor so that if you forget Saturday, go down, you must hold the king; The door to the stairs on each floor are closed. On the seventh day, King Suppabuddha was on the seventh floor, not going anywhere.

But on the seventh day, the king's horse suddenly shot down the cage on the ground floor, rocking around the wall. The king was in plain clothes, heard loud noises, stood up and opened the stairs to look down. But at that moment the doors suddenly opened, and two athletes rushed to grab the king's neck and throw it down on the sixth floor. In the sixth floor he was thrown down by another two athletes on the fifth floor; the return to the ground floor; The ground suddenly split into two, King Suppabuddha fell to the ground and reborn in the Avici Hell. Dandapani, Queen Suppabuddha to the throne of Koliya.

Rahula is 20 years old, full-dressed 

This year, samurai Rahula was 20 years old. Sariputta celebrates the ceremony for Rahula to become a Bhikkhu (bhikkhu, bhiksu). Venerable Sariputta taught him well in the days before the ordination. Svastika is also pleased to hear these teachings. This was an important ceremony that Rahula had long expected. Although young but very strict retreat [12]  very accurate should be the teacher's favorite. After the ceremony, the teachers are happy to congratulate the new bhikkhus.

The Buddha taught Rahula to distinguish between 18 different gender. [13]  

After Rahula was ordained as a monk, the Buddha devoted special attention to teaching meditation techniques. Svastika is also auditioned. The Buddha taught Rahula six bodhisattvas, six bodhisattvas and six separate ones. This custom is called the  18th Division of Separation .  Eg eyesense  with  excellent ceiling  born  consciousness. Labels attached to the body, color outside the scene, eye consciousness. While observing, we see that the eye is the eye and the eye's nerve that is joined by the cells; Therefore, mindfulness is impermanent, born, and without substance. Sacred ceiling is the scene of the atoms, the electrons that come together; Therefore, the color of the ceiling is also impermanent, born of death, without substance. The material eye and the hermeneutics have no substance, when they come into contact with the arising of consciousness, of course, consciousness also has no entity, like the spotted flower in the middle of nowhere. When we contemplate the bases, ceilings, and awakening, we see the same. All 18 worlds are composed of six, six, and six. They are impermanent, born without substance, so that means that our body, our mind and our view are impermanent.. Quan 18 gender distinction to  counter ignorance, eradicate attachment and attachment, reaching the purity of peaceful purity.

The Buddha taught Rahula five aggregates to eliminate selfishness. [14] 

Then the Buddha taught Rahula the five aggregates, namely, form, feeling, perception, volition and consciousness. At that time the philosophers conceived that man is a combination of five aggregates (five aggregates or five warms) consisting of   physical or material rúpa , feeling  is pleasant, unpleasant or neutral,  thought to  be private perception ,  action  is movement or change, consciousness  is the understanding and distinction of things with the other. We should examine the wall to realize that all five aggregates are impermanence, perception, perception and form. There is nothing permanent to call a fall [15] . Buddha said:

-This Rahula, this body is not a fall. This body is also not intersection (not the possession of self).Falls not in the body, the body is not in the fall.

There are usually three types of self-attachment:

1 -  The attachment  is that rupa is self, feeling is self, self is self, self is consciousness.

2-  Selfishness  that this body is not self, self is something separate from the body. Feeling, thinking, action and consciousness are the same.

3-  At the ego  for that in the body is falling, in the fall has the body. Falls and not two or not one;this is in the other. Feeling, thoughts, actions, and awakening.

The Buddha taught:

This Rahula wants to see not-self to look deeply into the five aggregates to see that the five aggregates are not  self , not  ego , not  self . Overcoming these three attachments and then really experience the five aggregates are None. The notion of self is no longer where to live. Once the selflessness is manifested, all defilements and sorrows disappear, and the purity of tranquility is revealed in front of the eyes.

Rahula was offered his own monastery 

After the ordination, Rahula more diligent practice, soon he was enlightened. Although he was young, he was greatly respected by the mendicants and lay followers. He is often offered warmly, but not so barriers on the path of practice. Every time there is something that you give to the missing masters.

One day, after hearing the Buddha's sermon in a village near Kapilavastu, one of the chief laypeople offered Rahula a small detention center where he regularly resided in his hometown. But then, thinking that the monastery was his offering, he often interfered in the operation of the monastery, often interfering with monks' practice. Rahula asks the Buddha how to handle it. The Buddha taught:

- This Rahula, in the teachings of As-Lai, the work of the sangha can not be managed at home.The devotees have given their hearts to the monks, not because of the right to interfere in the organization and activities of the Sangha. The monastery must be managed by the abbot of the abbot;You should tell the head that the thing that has been given is no longer mine. Giving without accepting the giver, not accepting the recipient of the gift, not accepting the object, then the action of generosity to be full, newly blessed fleece .

Brother Rahula told the Buddha to speak with the chief. But he did not understand the superior meaning of  non-acting generosity, [16]  so frustrated, uneasy, no longer sympathetic to Rahula. One day the headman to the abbot saw the great virtue Rahula, then brought the monks a donation to another mendicant. When Rahula returned home, the monk belonged to another man. I came to present everything to the Buddha. The following day, after the usual sermon, the Buddha said:

- Hey mendicants, object benefactors have donated to someone else and then brought offerings to the teacher, the teacher should not get [17] . END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTENMENT.VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.28/9/2017.
