Become a saint in the middle of the world

After 49 years of sermon preaching, by his life and by his teachings are gathered in 3 classic sūtras (Sutta Pitaka, Vinaya, Abhidharma), the Buddha declared to mankind that : "Anyone who, with his or her own efforts, can reach the highest peak of enlightenment and liberation, as the Buddha himself."

When in the Dao, he is the highest position, but he always wanders on all paths and thorns to lead sentient beings to the path of happiness, joy and complete liberation. His mercy is immeasurable, His grace is infinite.

That is why there is no religion, no ideology that upholds people and believes in people like Buddhism. The great humanity of Buddhism is that.

"Avoid all evil, do all good, cleanse the interior to become a saint, a perfect person of virtue and wisdom. Each of us has the ability and the duty to carry out that teaching. ”- That is the message that Buddha gave to us humans.

Although the Buddha has Nirvana, the example of His life is still shining before our eyes. For a lifetime, in 80 years, he never neglected his ultimate goal of turning sentient beings into deep sea.

The history of  Shakyamuni Buddha  is the history of a human being who, thanks to his own elaborate practice, has become a perfect human being, a saint among the world. "The greatest man born in this life" - Indian poet Tagore emphasized. END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.3/3/2020.
