Thuy Du.
Sariputra - the elder brother of the congregation - teaches a scripture called the Thuy Nu that we can learn today. This prayer helps us to reflect on how to deal effectively with anger. Thuy Du is a sutra in the Middle Ages. Water is water. When we need water to drink, when hot we need water to bathe. The thirst of thirst, the hot time without water, we are suffering. At that time the Buddha was at the monastery level, the Shrine.Sariputta called the friars to say, "Brothers, there are five ways that can help you overcome your anger, if you want to hear me, I will speak." The other teachers said, "Please, brother." Sutra said the following:
The first case is the case of a person who acts very hated but the words are not so easy to hate. Someone who, when I first saw it, did not see it. The way that person walks, stands, acts and treats can make us angry, but when he speaks it is not bad, sometimes say very good listening. So if one is wise, (ie not stupid), we must contemplate not to be angry with that person. Because we know that although the body of that person is not pure, but his mouth is still pure. And to such teachers, we should consider their own rulings without being concerned about their bodies. If we only think of the person's body, our anger will arise. But if I sit there and pay attention to his mouth, I will not be angry with him. We are exposed to the positive side of the other.
Here is an example that Sutra teaches: There is an almighty mendicant dressed in a healing vest (yak patches - he is attached to rags collected in heaps of rubbish), passing a heap of rubbish. have feces and urine, see a piece of cloth seem good dump there. The monk bent down to pick up the cloth with his left hand and with the right hand stretch the cloth to comment. If the fabric is good, not bad, not torn, not sticky and dirty, the healer knows that it can fold it back, bring it to the sewing machine. I also reflect on that. The other person, although the body is not cute, but the mouth is cute, so we can still play with that person, can still accept that person. This cloth was thrown into the rubbish dump near the stool, but if it was washed it was still usable, so we picked it up.
The second case is the case of the barrier but not pure net body. The mouth speaks words like venomous snakes, but he also acts quite cute; If we are wise, one may be interested in his or her cute actions and forget his or her words so that we can love, accept and live with him or her.
He gives an example: "Hey friends, as in our neighborhood, not far, there is a very deep lake but with straw, grass, leaves, ducks and firewood cover up. Without the bath, he may also use the lake. He takes off his shirt and puts it on the lake, stepping down to the lake with his hands on dried leaves, ducklings, moss and stems. The clearing water is clear and clear water can be found and the person can start bathing and swimming.Because a few mosses, ducks, grass and wood on the water that left the lake is very poor.
The third case is a case where a person is not pure net but not pure net. His actions are not cute at all but his words are very hateful, in that case how do we do? Sariputta says: We have to look very carefully because sometimes there are positive things in our minds that we have not seen yet. In the minds of people who do not have positive points? In this case, the practice is difficult but we can still do it.
Sutri Sutra gives an example: "Seniors, a pedestrian who travels long distances, thirsts to burn his neck and meets a hole in the foot of a buffalo in which there is little water left. It's hot: If we take a rolled up sheet to draw water, it can also make the water muddy, so it's best to kneel two pillows, fight your hands and bring your mouth down to drink water directly. And after the dying pedestrian kneeling down his hands and drinking three or four sips of water, he found that he was much more comfortable, and then he could continue the journey.
For a person whose words are not cute but not cute, we have to contemplate to see that in their mind there are also fresh spots left over, and if we see those points we still have can accept that person and can live with him. Although this is more difficult than the first and second cases, one can still accept that person, and thus the person can prevent his mind from arising.
The fourth case is a person who is not pure, the sentence is not pure and the mind is not pure. I have tried my best not to see any positive points in his mind, as well as in his body and speech. What should I do?
Sariputta used this example: "There is a very sick man on the way." The village was far away, he was wretched, withered, alone, with no companion, no hope. What survived and got out of this accident, by chance, came close to him, stopped to one side, and saw the tragic situation of the pedestrian. If someone is helping, the other pedestrian will die on the spot.Feel like so, this person began to help each other step by step until they reached the nearest village.Then to the village, This second person is looking for a place to treat the first person. After a period of three or four weeks, the other person escapes. Suffering and joy will belong to the second. "
When we see that a person is not very nice, the mouth is not cute and mind is not cute, we know that his life is suffering so extreme. If we do not love, if we do not help then who can help him? Here, Sariputta calls on our Compassionate Heart. If we have compassion, we can live with the unkind, not the cute and not very cute. Only those who lack compassion have just run away, but people who practice a little Compassion can still live together and help people whose three Karma, speech and mind are not pure.
The fifth case is the case of pure net, the net bar but the net is also very pure. Unless I'm a stupid person, I'm not with him, so I want to give up his birthright. When the other person is a person who acts gracefully and beautifully, there is a gentle and loving speech, a good heart that we leave to leave, then we are a fool. Only fools do it.
"There is a lake in the village, in which there are pink and white lotus blossoms blossoming, the lake is green, grass around the lake is filled with flowers and trees. If there is a lake that you do not know, sit on one side, take off your swimsuit in the lake, go to the water in the lake and drink. we do not deserve to be called happy living. "
Meet a good man, a ruler and a cute mind, one must be determined to stay with that person. Practicing this word of Sariputta, when we see a Zen meditator whose body, mouth, and mind are lovely, we should ask him to stay for the enrichment of our body and to increase our body. So a lot of fresh and fragrant lotus lake, make fun and happy for us and do not know how many others.
