Khuyen Phat Bodhi Tam by Mage Dien Boi page 65-67, Great Master of Province Am taught: “Did not seek to cultivate fame, did not take part in sensual retribution, just because liberating samsara, because of enlightenment Bodhi mind that mind, such mind, called "the main" again: "A heart on Buddhism, a stomach under chemical beings. Listen to the Buddha's road long and long, not reborn in awe; see beings difficult, not born bored. Like climbing the mountain forever, we must climb to the top; like going up a nine-storey tower, right up to the top. Phat mind like that, called "legs".

Any other religion, in their teachings, has never shown people how to solve the matter of life and death, even teaching people to pray for longevity, like Taoism in China, or teaching people to pray for everlasting immortality, like today's Christianity.

Phat Ta Ta Ta Minister said, now talk about righteous mind. Emissions speak here and broadcast speak above, completely opposite, the above comes from the desire to benefit, like to be famous ... the type of speech said below, did not crave for nutrition, do not like Fame; above comes from craving for sensuality, the future of retribution ... below, did not crave for sensual pleasures, not expecting future results, one-heartedly, for liberation of life and death, because of enlightenment Bodhi mind that austerities. Embracing such mind is called "righteous". Generating a mind for the sake of birth and death, at first glance, it seems only to liberate oneself, but actually the only purpose of studying Buddha is to solve the great problem of samsara, this life takes over the life another, forming a continuous flow of life. This flow of life sinks in the pool of life and death. That is great suffering!

The biggest difference between Buddhism and other religions is this big problem. Any other religion, in their teachings, has never shown people how to deal with the matter of life and death, even teaching people to pray for longevity, like Taoism in China, or teaching people to pray for everlasting immortality, like today's Christianity. According to the Buddha's righteous cause, sentient beings in this world, unless they are not born, but have been born cannot die If you want to not die, you must not give birth first.

When the mind has arisen, must go forward to make it resilient, even if sometimes "Hear the Buddha's long path, not giving birth to awe", first of all must admit that you are still an ordinary mortal brain, starting from the point is ordinary until the final point of being Buddha.

The so-called immortality, eternity, frankly only deceive the fool. Has anyone ever seen anyone who is everlasting or eternal? Still life and death, death and birth, birth and death endlessly. Therefore, the true Buddha learner, absolutely not to pray for immortality, eternal life, just generate mind to liberate samsara, just generate mind to witness supreme Bodhi. Any day you don't reach that goal, you won't stop pursuing the said goal.

Embracing mind Bodhicitta has two great tasks: One is to pray for Buddhism, and the other is to convert sentient beings. A heart on the Buddhist bridge is the first task when you want to complete that task, then every thought before and after must focus all on Buddhism without a moment of forgetting, even more unable to step backward. A stomach below the chemical level of being is in the second task. When one wants to accomplish that task, one has to be one heart and soul and the sentient being resolves without any selfishness.

The thing is, when the mind has arisen, must go forward to make it resilient, even if sometimes "Hear the Buddha's long path, not giving birth to terror", first of all must admit that he is still an ordinary brain suffering , starting from the point of being ordinary to the final point of being Buddha, in the middle is a long and arduous path. To say "Bodhi Road shakes" is like that. The path of Bodhi from the ordinary to the Buddha is very long indeed, cannot go all in a short time. The one who develops the Bodhi mind, cannot because of hearing that the Bodhi Road is long and long but gives birth to fear to step back, but must have an irrational courage, promote fearless courage, overcome all difficulties, eliminate all obstacles, with the will not yet achieved the goal yet, go through that far-reaching Bodhi road.

To steadfast wishes, now please give an example: "Like climbing a mountain of thousands of rings must climb to the top". Ten thousand rings to say the height of the mountain. In the old-fashioned way in our country, eight meters is one ring, ten thousand rings is eighty thousand yards.

Also, "seeing sentient beings is difficult, not giving birth to depression." Beings talk about quantity is infinite, many stars cannot count, talking about identity, each person has a different identity. Being purebred, of course they are easy to cultivate, but most of them are unruly. Meeting these stubborn and strong beings not only does not absorb our teachings, but can also let go of insults. Even kicking and punching, meeting such sentient beings, the Bodhisattva practitioner must endure trials, determined not only not to give rise to discouragement and fatigue, but also to generate mercy and affection. seeing these sentient beings being so foolish, if we don't convert, who else will? From then on, if we find a way to teach, we must do so that sentient beings will be taught and go on the Buddha's path.

To steadfast wishes, now please give an example: "Like climbing the mountain of thousands of rings must have climbed to the top". Ten thousand rings to say the height of the mountain. In the old-fashioned way in our country, eight meters is one ring, ten thousand rings is eighty thousand yards. Ten thousand mountains high is eighty thousand feet high. As we climb a mountain, it is not possible for the mountain to soar that it awakens to back down. In order to open your eyes, you have to go to the top to see the four sides. If you climb up halfway up the mountain and back down, then you will see so many scenery, how to enjoy it.

Manjushri is often seen sitting on a lion. The lion, the king of forest staff, symbolizes the fearless mind. When the mind is no longer dark thoughts, illuminated by wisdom, the heart will be free of fear.

Thereby we think of the austerities of the Bodhisattvas generating the true Bodhi mind. Bodhisattvas are living and real characters in our lives. We know little of them, though their appearances are countless. However, the Buddhist scriptures teach that those Bodhisattvas are symbolically meant to teach us to reflect and imitate their example. Here are some of the main Bodhisattvas who help us to reflect on their examples.

+ Bodhisattva Samantabhadra: Called the Bodhisattva of Great Virtue, because He represents the spirit of diligence, cultivating all disciplines without fatigue, without interruption, without limitation. He is often pictured taking off a six-ivory white elephant. Elephants are a symbol of certainty, a firm step in religious practice. The six tusks represent the basic six paramitas.

+ Bodhisattva Manjushri: Called the Bodhisattva of Great wisdom, because He symbolizes the religious people as true faith, and the fruitful fruit is wisdom. He is both the mother of faith and the mother of wisdom. Manjushri is often seen sitting on a lion. The lion, the king of forest staff, symbolizes the fearless mind. When the mind is no longer dark thoughts, illuminated by wisdom, the heart will be free of fear. Sometimes His hands hold the Bat Nha sutta, sometimes the sword of wisdom, sometimes holding the will of the tree. As the idea is a legal gas that represents authority, wants what it is, very free in; thus it symbolizes the bowl-like wisdom, which frees us to be free from urgent afflictions. Learning from His example is learning how to practice in all circumstances, negativity and karma.

Big belly can tolerate, forgive things that people hard to forgive. Big mouth or laugh, laugh at the funny things of the world Learning His good example is learning tolerance, from the infinite harmony.

+ Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara: He represents great compassion, ready to save suffering, regardless of good and bad. He is an example for us to learn how to develop our teachers. Usually we see the Quan Yin Germany holding a bottle of orange juice, holding a branch of Yang Chi. The orange pot is said to contain all of the four seas: it represents the breadth and depth of compassion, which can cover every mood. Orange juice is great water, can quench anger anger. Smooth willow branch is a gentle characteristic, such as mating, bringing purity, except poisoning. Learning from His example is to mimic compassion and to love sentient beings unconditionally.

+ Maitreya Maitreya: He represents kindness, affection, tolerance, support for all sentient beings, making everyone feel warmth and genuine love. He is an example for us to learn how to treat sentient beings. Although his general Maitreya is 32 like Buddha, as usual we see him in the form of the Venerable Venerable: A Rounded Up Monk, a fan, a hand held, walking everywhere. His round abdomen represents the generosity and kindness. There is a poem praising him:

“The energy of the rabies, the nature of the world does not mean anything.

The password is often funny, so mundane.

Means: A big belly can endure, forgive things that people cannot forgive. Big mouth or laugh, laugh at the funny things of the world Learning His good example is learning tolerance, from the infinite harmony.

People who study Buddhism, need to choose for themselves good examples, follow which to learn the mind of Bodhi, can be called true mind development. The person who makes the heart of lemon is extremely precious.

+ Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva: He symbolizes filial piety and infinite patience for sentient beings. He is the representative of the venerable vipāka. Usually, he holds a cane, handles pearls. The wand has 12 golden rings, when it releases it clangs, vibrates and destroys the gates of hell. Concentration is the representative for wisdom to destroy 12 conditions of life and death. His pearl can illuminate the hellish darkness, causing sentient beings to suffer, seeing that light will immediately come out of the darkness of darkness. The pearl is the symbol of wisdom that shines through our overcast. To learn the example of Jizō is to learn to be filial to all sentient beings. Often enlighten the heart, as well as sacrifice yourself to accomplish others.

+ Bodhisattva Dai The Chi: He represents effort, perseverance in practice. While Avalokiteshvara represents the reincarnated aspect of the Pure Land Dharma disciple, The Buddha's Religion represents the aspect of excellency. He often holds the lotus, symbolizing the pure practice, even in the pure pollution. Studying His example is to learn to be fearless, not to imitate the bad examples, the effects of the bad around him. I am influenced only by the people or truths I want. That is called willpower. Once I have decided to practice, I hold on to the unsuspecting intention and neglect. That is the spirit of Dai The Chi.

In summary, people who study Buddhism, need to choose for themselves good examples, follow which to learn the development of bodhicitta, can be called true development. The person who makes the heart of lemon is extremely precious. END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.25/6/2020.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.
