The Three Immortals Of The Six Groups.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.

I. Unconsciousness To Be A Cardboard.

According to the spirit of the Six Patriarchs, the cultivators have to take non-reciting as a tone. The guideline of austerities must be taken into account. Firmly grasping this point, I cultivated steadily.

Beings then take "recitation" as a tone, so always follow the direction of birth and death, that is to live according to the concept. Because "mindfulness" is the movement and the initiation, there is the arising and arising of arising and falling away, the arising is the arising, the arising is the destruction. Here, take the concept of non-recitation as a tone. As with Swiss monk asked Zen Master Yan:  "What is the reason often?" . Teacher said, "Caves" . He rose to ask: "When action is how " The Master replied:  "Did not the ordinary justice". The common version is usually available so no birth and no birth, but the mind that asks it is "mindfulness", but "mindfulness" is contrary to the normal version. So here when he asked and asked what is the common reason, he answered that it was dynamic rather than explaining the common reason. So "mindfulness" is a birth, but there is birth and death, and the new birth is not destroyed and that is the place of one's cultivation. Cause and effect. Beings to cultivators that are not yet enlightened are often living according to the concept, which is according to the birth and death. As he rose, he asked Zen master Tung Trien:  "What is the fire that does not burn into the water? He replied:  "If it is fire water then it will be submerged.", so how do you understand? It is true that it is difficult to understand words. But understanding the reason of meditation, then seeing that Teacher responds is very logical, what does it mean? That is, when the concept of action is distinguished, fire is immediately burned. Right there, starting to distinguish the water-fire from the water - the fire is burnt and sunk, it is falling into being. And right there that unconsciousness is not stuck in impermanence being destroyed, that is the Zen master wants to lead the learner to return to "non-reciting" to escape samsara. It means that in it, the mindfulness is falling into being. That is the place I can see to apply practice. If you apply carefully, make sure the road to escape birth and death is easy, not far away. Just as in Tin Tam Minh, Tam To teach:  "The mind reciting the feet. Kissing is not good." There are contemplations that are contrary to the true place of the old age, which are not destroyed, and deviate from the path of delusion and thus go further and further away. If it stops immediately, it is the path of our spiritual practice. Later Zen masters also took this gesture and then developed it according to the means of each age, but the idea was to point to that non-conceptual place. As Venerable Trieu Chau teaches us:  "Mind attempted think instant wrong."  There monk asked:  "When the mind can not think what?" Master beat him raised three children, says:  "It is the old increased her side beams pear reasonable? "This is Mr. Zhao Chau also pointed out the concept of non-concept. Having said that, I thought it was wrong, and yet he tried to ask what it was like to think, it was a recitation. He beat him to remind him: He pointed it out so clearly that right away he asked! Mastering only that point to see your spiritual practice, just commemorating it is going into being and killing, circulating. And that nostalgia is the only sign, the way to practice, to escape birth and death. But here also need to understand what is non-conceptual, that is important. This place is not a place to study above words. That is the place to practice.

Here, Luc To teach clearly:  "In the scene where the mind is not contemplated, it is on the mind of one's own that often leaves the scene, not in the mind of birth. If only a hundred things do not think, we must subtract everything, one The end of the mind is death, the birth will be different, it is wrong.  The person who studies the mind, if he does not know the meaning of the dharma, can mistakenly, and teach others, self-pity does not see again and criticizes. by Buddhist scriptures, therefore, it is necessary to set up nembutsu to be a person ".

Luc To teaches the concept of non-mindfulness not to kill mindfulness, no longer know anything and sit in the same way as a log, it is a mistake. He taught above the scene that the mind did not become new, but did not destroy all thoughts without knowing anything like a tree like wood. That is in the scene without being mindful and being on the mind that often leaves the scene. On the anniversary that left the scene, leaving the scene is where there is birth. Not to destroy the concept but right away, but the sight is bright. So above mindfulness that leaves the scene, does not give birth to the mind on the scene, ie, mindfulness does not leave the nature to follow the scene. Cultivating like that, I can't love it. I can still hear but leave the scene, I don't love it. The reason is because of the scene, according to the scene. Such nostalgia and the spirit of the retired Truc Lam taught: " The heartless mind should not ask meditation ".

The Sixth Patriarch teaches more:  "This knowledge of goodness! Self-nature as a concept, though there are six bases, we hear the feeling without being infected by the scenes, the true nature of our feet". That is, self-nature as a concept is not the hope of initiation. Right from self-nature as a concept, although there are six foundations to hear and feel clearly but not infected by the scene, so the true nature of one's feet is a concept that has not been recited. Although initiating thoughts, the truth is that there has never been a initiation. This is used according to the world language temporarily said so, but not the concept but not mindfulness should not follow the scene of mind to lose yourself. That is, although mindfulness but not leaving the mind, there is no loss. And I think that according to the scene is leaving the self-nature, leaving the new nature to fall in love, falling in love. So, seeing listening to knowledge that leaves every scene is often self-conscious, where there is no obstruction, it is not obscured. Once General Quoc Bui Huu asked Zen Master Hoang Ba:  "What is Buddha?". He replied: "The mind is the Buddha, the mind is not the way, only the mind is mindful, whether it is short, short, human, the mind, etc. The mind is the Buddha, the Buddha is the mind. of the Buddha as if nothing is not a separate bridge, there is a need for suffering. " Here, Mr. Hoang Ba also teaches the spirit of mindlessness as such, not destroying the concept, but even the mind that does not initiate the mindfulness of the two parties is the Buddha's mind, that is mindless feet So it is not killing all thoughts or not having any mind at all. The spiritual practice is so clear, firmly grasping this gesture to cultivate is to ensure that the path of escape from birth and death is no longer suspicious. Without reciting the mindfulness of the scene, there is no warning, no warning is usually self-centered, that is, to overcome the arising and passing away, so when both thoughts and thoughts fall into the two sides, we must be alert to pull back. will shorten the time of unconsciousness. If it goes on, then go on to go into being. So there is the sentence "The three most talented three thousand options". A wave of waves starts with endless waves of waves. If I can't keep up, that's it. For example, when I was sitting still, I suddenly remembered when I was still in school. If you just think about it like that, stop it right away, but if you think about it, then after that, how many scenes will you continue, how to go to school, where to study, happy to go out and play, etc. It lasted a bit for half an hour. If you are skilled in spiritual practice, you will often have to look back before the initiation, so that you will return to the place before the commemoration is not according to the concept, but you will be born. Without birth, it does not destroy. Must grasp so firmly, if there is birth, there is no killing, running anywhere, not running, though running up to heaven, non-ideal non-thought is not out of it. Not being born is not going to kill, not running anywhere but also going away. Mastering that weakness, when I cultivate is not wrong. Be careful, whatever is born, you must kill, then it is not true that I should follow. Not being born, then that is the place to live. That's the truth.

Mr. Lin has pointed out that:  "You do not be mistaken, the outside is not legal, in nor be (ie none is true) .  The he just grabbed the words in the mouth of the Son rise in costs by severance The thing that has been raised does not continue, what has not been raised does not give up, rather than you going on ten years. " He taught simply, what has risen, do not continue. When you see it rise, that is to start and start to belong and to be born, to kill and to kill, not to stop. And the unfulfilled do not give up. It is so clear and clear, very elaborate. But according to the concept that arises and then takes care of it, it takes so much effort. The birth of the mind destroys it then adds the second mind which kills the mind, giving birth to this mind to destroy the other mind, thus creating the second arising and falling away, showing that the "non-mindfulness of making a cardboard" is the weakness of the practice. Tu thus less elaborately worked hard to ensure that the path to escape from life and death was without doubt. By the concept of mindfulness is there to be destroyed, and the unconscious is without mindfulness, it is not to be destroyed and to be free from birth and death. Nirvana is unborn, then this is invisible, so right there is Nirvana but also Nirvana anywhere. So people who learn the words often do a lot of mistakes. Heard Nirvana thought Nirvana is a realm of something, tu to reach the realm of Nirvana. But if Nirvana has a realm, then it will be Nirvana. There are realms that leave this realm in order to reach the scene of Nirvana. And this is where the concept of mindfulness, but the concept of Nirvana is nothing more. Even a concept of not being born is a nirvana concept. And if you can live perfectly in Nibbana, it is a clear path.  END=NAM MO SAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.20/6/2019.
