View of Kamma in Theravada Buddhism.
1. THEOLOGY AND EDUCATION OBJECTIVES OF THE BUDDHISM
The Buddha is a true figure in Indian history, born and raised in a turbulent social context, the political situation of the Canaanite kingdom at that time, the territory of which His ruling king, who was in a state of aggression from his neighbors, had a policy of expansion, encroachment on the colonies. [1]In the face of more and more tragic thoughts, the Brahminical tradition can not continue to play the leading role in Indian religious and cultural culture, no longer attractive enough for the intellectual. The Indian subdivision of four classes, and Brahman's unified doctrine of compassion, is the precursor of controversial debate among the contemporary intelligentsia, an indispensable condition for the formation of liberal schools of thought. Think, represented by six philosophies (called Buddhist paganism) [2] :(1) School of negation of moral values, the character of Pùrana Kassapa;Buddha Shakyamuni is also anti-Brahmin, so he can be considered as a non-traditional thinker. Here, we should note, Jain teachings are the Buddha was mentioned quite a lot in the A Sutra. According to Lu Trung, the thought of this branch is inherited Brahmanical thought. One of the main doctrines of this sect is "karma", which includes the karmic self and the karmic self, but they consider the "karmic" To be free of enlightenment, one must eradicate defilements, by practicing asceticism. They are often asked to address the Buddha's problem of metaphysics, the reason being that in the teachings of the Buddha they have introduced the doctrine of "no self" and "karma," they argue that without " "(àtman) is always constant, who is the creator (actor),Who is receiving the consequences (retribution)? This question the Buddha has always kept silent attitude does not answer[3] , during the period of A function, with the reason that these matters were not related to the liberation of suffering, but after the Buddha's passing, the Vinaya had openly advocated " ". In any case, the two doctrines of selflessness and karma of Buddhism are the basis for Buddhist scholars to come to the conclusion that Buddhism itself exists in contradiction. That is the issue we need to clarify, to avoid misunderstanding in Buddhism. Although the Buddha rebelled against Brahman's theory of Brahmanism, there was a so-called ego, but for liberal thought, moral values, the destruction ... even the guidelines of asceticism of the United States he also disagreed.So, what is your position and direction of education aimed at? To answer this question, the Buddha spoke of his views and stated his purpose of education as follows: "O Bhikkhus, as it is today, we speak of suffering and the cessation of suffering. " [4] and" the world has three things not fun, not fancy, do not want to think that in mind, namely: the old, the sick and dying ... the world without these three things, the Tathagata does not appear in the world Time, the world as well as Tathagata said, religious ...[5]. It can be said, this is the stance and purpose of education of the Buddha. The teachings of Buddhism are the doctrines of human analysis and the problems of human life. According to Buddhism, man consists of two main elements, material and spirit, birth and death, which are the natural phenomena of the body, the reality of life.Sickness and death are the natural recession of the body, whoever is unavoidable, the Buddha Shakyamuni has to undergo this general condition, that is the natural law of the body. When I go to old age, I do not want to do anything, travel inconvenient, eat not delicious, sleep is not sleep ... this is old suffering. Chanting is the recession, the unhealthy four elements of the body, body aches and pains are one of the suffering. Death is the end of one's life, Apart from the physical suffering of the body, there is also a greater suffering, which is mental suffering.According to the Buddha, the origin of the suffering of human psychology is due to ignorance. Disbelief about what? It is ignorant of "falling" and "falling down". The so-called self is the wrong view of human beings, Buddhism called the attitude of attachment to self, said that human beings have the constant constant, unchanging.But according to the analysis of the Buddha, man is composed of five elements: rupa, vedana, samjana, samskara and vijnana. One element is eternal. Consciousness (vijnana) is formed depending on four other factors, it can not exist independently; rupa (vedana), thought (samjna), samskara (samskara) are also analyzed. Thus, the so-called self, The nature of it is conditional birth (pratìtya-samutpāda), what is conditioned by that, it can not be called fall (àtman). The man who inherited him, imagined the true fall, that is the source of arising. suffering is also the ignorant of self; "Self-centered" is the illusory vision of the things around us, the attachment of the things we have, such as my wife, my lover, my house, my car, I, etc., claim that all of these belong to us, no one can infiltrate, but in reality, we are completely in control of whatever we have. , it always changes according to the law of dependent origination. is also the ignorant of self; "Self-centered" is the illusory vision of the things around us, the attachment of the things we have, such as my wife, my lover, my house, my car, I, etc., claim that all of these belong to us, no one can infiltrate, but in reality, we are completely in control of whatever we have. , it always changes according to the law of dependent origination. is also the ignorant of self; "Self-centered" is the illusory vision of the things around us, the attachment of the things we have, such as my wife, my lover, my house, my car, I, etc., claim that all of these belong to us, no one can infiltrate, but in reality, we are completely in control of whatever we have. , it always changes according to the law of dependent origination. For example, brother A is having a loved one, in the sense he thinks: This is my love and we will certainly love each other forever, but for some reason, she does not love Love him too, was a pain that did not come to him, because he did not accept a reality in progress. For another example, we have a lot of money, put it in a safe, bank or lend money to someone else ... in the sense that we think this is my money, no one can Suffocated, but someday, because of unpredictable conditions, the money was stolen by thieves, the bank went bankrupt, the loans were killed. How do you think about the property? And your psychology like? Is it a psychological pain, for losing money? After all, suffering loss of love and loss of money are two sufferings that share the same origin is not accept a reality evolve. It is at present changing, but our consciousness does not depend on changing things as the cause of suffering. Such a perception, in the Buddhist scriptures called "not as true knowledge tri", in the Kim Vang called "crazy dream vision", which is one of the psychological suffering. If so then what we are, we should not see them as my own, wear them freely? So does Buddhism encourage the "irresponsible" spirit? The writer would like to answer that Buddhism is not advocated as such, Buddhism always advises people, should have the spirit of duty and responsibility, not only have personal responsibility but also the society that he is Living, because fulfilling personal responsibility is the essential condition for the society to perfect, a perfect society is the basic factor for people to live a peaceful and happy life, personal and collective life. The relationship is inseparable. Here, the Buddha presented the teachings of "selflessness" and "selflessness" in order to indicate the true nature of the dharmas, It helps human beings to have a proper understanding of the person as well as the things around him, which are "selflessness" and "selflessness" because the true nature of the dharmas is conditioned to break the prejudices, The wrong man's wrongs alone, it is the cause of all suffering. But want to see the "selflessness" and "selflessness" need to have wisdom. Wisdom is the seeing as true (such as true knowledge), not a vision through vague imagery. What is the truth? Being the sight between things and consciousness is a non-difference, as we see fire, we know fire is hot, so we do not put our hands on fire to burn our hands. Awareness of fire is hot and the reality of fire is hot, so called know as true. What is called seeing through imagination? It is the difference between the consciousness and the reality of things. For example, at night, on the road without electricity, the pedestrian saw a string of thoughts on the snake, when the wrong idea of the string is the snake psychological fear arise. On the thought of being a serpent, in contrast, in fact, the thread is not a snake, so between consciousness and reality are two different things, the Buddha called it a vision through imagination. From this point of view, we can answer the above question very easily. We are the people who live in this life, the necessities of human existence, such as housing, eating rice, clothing, etc., which are the necessities of human existence. So, human beings use them as natural actions, without any fault, as it is the means to live, so the attitude of protection is also the duty and responsibility that we need. It is impossible to think that these things are conditioned, not to be used, and their faces free to change. But when they change according to the laws of nature, beyond the ability of the human being we sustain, that is the stubborn attitude that comes from ignorance, not intellect. As all things operate according to the law of birth and death, yet once things function according to this law, Thus the attitude of disregard and the behavior of natural law are two different attitudes, one arising from knowledge and the other arising from ignorance, so also the sense of duty and responsibility. Attitude is two different attitudes. Spiritual responsibility is the spirit derived from wisdom, contrary stubborn attitude derived from ignorance. What comes from wisdom, which is promoted by the Buddha, bring happiness; What comes from ignorance, that brings suffering, that the Buddha advised to give up. Thus, the Buddha advised that all people should have proper understanding of the person as "selflessness" and "selflessness," because of the reality that is so unchangeable, in order to help people see. true life, away from suffering. This is the deep meaning of the sentence: "As before, Thereby we see that man is the object of the Buddha's teaching, and his educational purpose and purpose is the eradication of human suffering. According to the Buddha, the deep root of suffering is ignorance, ignorance is the father of poverty, of all failures in life. Thus, the human being who wants to be happy is none other than to raise the light of wisdom, it is the sharpest blade to rid the defilement, is the basic element to build a happy life for this life and the next life.
