Where to live from - Where to die?VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.

 

The life span of every human being born in this world, whether long or short life span, can generally be divided into several stages. At any stage, there is a lot of struggle, competition, anxiety and afflictions. Except for the time when she was born to her mother, the baby did not know how to think or to judge. Only laugh and cry according to the demanding instincts of the body, and the baby is often met by Parents.

 

In the next phase, if they are lucky to be born in a well-off family, they can steal books to go to school. If they are unfortunately born in a poor and difficult situation, even though they are very small, after school, they still have to struggle outside the society to earn a living with their families. That is to say, there are many children who have to drop out of school or not go to school because their parents cannot afford it. During this time suffering was present in the lives of young people whether they were born in a rich or poor family.

Next temporarily called the stage of adults, getting married, having children, working hard to earn money to support the family, raising children until they grow up. Family life is sometimes happy and happy, but most people experience anxiety and anxiety from the inside out to the social community. At this time, people live in tension because they always make efforts and try to fight. Perhaps these efforts are directed toward a noble cause, or it may be because of the ambition of wanting to be rich in wealth and fame for oneself and one's family. For good or bad purposes, few people will stop to a certain extent, because the amount of fame and fortune does not fill the pockets of greed.

Then old age until no good, disease dragged to raging the body. Many people carry a long-term physical illness, while many are very young, but have early strokes.

When the final stage came, people lay in a breathless place. By the time he breathed out, he could no longer breathe in it, and became a stiff, stiff, cold, inanimate body. At that time those around even though they did not want to have to declare that the person was  "dead"  already, already  "lost"  already! When the lid of the coffin closed, from that moment on, no one could see the person who had  "died"  , had  "died"  and that was also present in this realm of Ta Ba, because that body had been buried by relatives. buried in the ground cold, or burned to ashes.

We all go through the aforementioned periods, but at any moment, we ask ourselves,  "Who am I, where do I come from, and where I will return when I die one day?" or uneasy because:  "Why are humans in this world so that one day he will die. Is death to cease to disappear from this world, or is there another place for the dead to return? ” To find the answer we invite you to join us in sharing the topic “Where do people come from and where do they die? " 

 

VARIOUS VIEWS ABOUT HUMAN RESOURCES

There are many different views and theories about the presence of humans in this world.

  •  People who worship materialism claim that people come from materialism and live only the present life. After death there will be nothing more, so they enjoy life without regard for morality, because there is a cause of crimes or a good life, and eventually the end is death. Death is the end, no need to worry.
  • In ancient India, it is believed that inside the human body there is a lasting soul. After the death of the small self or their soul will merge into the great self of Brahma. To that end, in India, there is the ascetic method, which is to train the body. The more ascetic they think, the sooner they can reach the mind. The Buddha has also been practicing this ascetic method for 6 years long, the upper mind of Nirvana, where he is not seen, only see a little bit more, he would have lost his life if not for the female shepherd who saved his life with a cup of sheep milk.
  • Theocratic religious people think that man is a product of God. God is the supreme being, almighty, omnipotent not only creating man but also creating the whole world and the universe. People after death only have two realms to come. It is to go to Heaven if anyone believes and obeys the teachings of God. On the contrary, those who wonder that they do not put their full faith in the Bible will be considered a lost sheep, and after death they will be sent to hell and burned to eternity.
  •  What about the Buddhist perspective? As Buddhists we have learned through " The process  of enlightenment and enlightenment of Shakyamuni Buddha."  On the last night of the fourth week is the night of Bodhisattva enlightenment. At the first watch, he witnessed the result of Tanh Mang Minh, gaining the Knowledge of his own past many lifetimes. On the second wing, he witnessed the Heavenly Eye, attaining the Knowledge of the reincarnation of sentient beings for many lifetimes many lives due to Cause and effect meaning that in the past they created bad causes, this life they will receive bad fruits , if in the past they lived honestly, then in this life, they would enjoy good results. Canh Tuesday, He proved Gonorrhea Take, is the Wisdom knows  the cause of samsara is  illegal or.  Gonorrhea or are habits, passion gathered from many past lives to the present and continue for many lives in the future. Gonorrhea also has good karma and bad karma, but most of it is evil that causes people to keep going back and forth.

Through the realization of the Buddha's three manifestations, it is shown that the death of sentient beings is not the end. Death is only the beginning of a new life. That life is described through the theory of "The Twelve Causes and Causes "  or the theory of  Causality"  as follows:

  • What is Nhan Duyen? The cause is the cause, the main cause directly produces other things. For example, sesame seeds are Nhan that spawn directly, Dependent conditions are conditions, only for objects that directly or indirectly support the Human Form. Examples include soil, water, fertilizers, sunlight and gardeners' care. These things have helped and helped the aforementioned seeds sprout into plants.

So the  "Twelve Causes and Conditions"  are twelve Causes who are also Causes, which One present will bear the other. Twelve Causes and Conditions are:  Ignorance, Onions, Consciousness, Identity, Luc six, Exposed, Feeling, Loving, Prime, Friendship, Birth, Lao Tzu.

 

The outline of the 12 conditions is as follows:

 

1) Ignorance : Being unaware of the real world phenomenon. The Buddha taught that all the dharmas present in this world encompass the whole human being due to the many conditions that become, which is not intrinsic so it is not-self. The dhammas are only present when conditions are sufficient and it will deteriorate into something else when there are not enough conditions. That is the illusory nature of all things. Ignorant people do not know as true about the worldly phenomena, so clinging to everything in the world is real, is permanent, so when those things are lost, there is sorrow, suffering.

 

2) Onions:  Because of ignorance, people often have thoughts, words and actions to create karma. Sometimes it is good karma but most of it is bad karma.

 

3) Consciousness:  Consciousness or death, which is pirated, or created by the body, speech, collectively known as karma. These karma train to create karma. When karma karma leads the consciousness to receive the result of dukkha or joy in the next life.

 

4) Identity:  People have two parts mentally and physically. The spirit is abstract without form including the concepts: feeling, perception, action, consciousness collectively called Mind, the Buddhist term called Danh. The body is a physical body with palpable colors known as rupa.

 

5) Six types of  six doors: eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind. When the six faculties come into contact with the six scenes or the six ceilings, namely: materiality, purity, flavor, taste, contact, and dharma, the six types of consciousness arise. That is consciousness, consciousness, consciousness, consciousness, body, consciousness. This consciousness affects the mind and causes it to fluctuate at all times, so it is called the six realms.

 

6) Contact:  The contact of the six senses with the ceiling. For example, the eyes see the scene, the ears hear the sound, the body feels cool, the tongue tasted the sweet and bitter taste, the nose smelled the aroma, the pleasure or dislike of an object.

 

7) Feeling:  Feeling or feeling of body or mind. The mind feels happy and sad when the six senses are exposed. The body feels hot pain when exposed to fire or boiling water.

 

8) Craving:  Is fancy. When enjoying the happy scene, then ... it is being interested. Encountering an unpleasant scene, the mind of suffering, dislike, hate ... the mind of being angry. Craving, craving, is what drives people to create karma.

 

9) Player : Being clinging, holding on. Meet the good scene, then greed keep it. Meet the person you like, you want to possess. Prime is also the source of greed.

 

10) Being:  Is the desire to exist in this life to enjoy or exist in some future realm. This desire is the cause that leads to Samsara samsara. Friendship also means Yes. Want to be present in this life and want to be present in the future life.

 

11) Birth:  Being born to receive karmic retribution caused by Ai, Thu, Huu is the cause of previous life.

 

12) Lao  Tzu : Old and dead.

 

In general, these twelve conditions are connected in a cycle of human birth and death. The link of ignorance is the most dangerous. Because Ignorance causes our minds to be confused, no longer discern clearly distinguish between what is true and what is false. Because of ignorance should misunderstand about people and all things in the universe, thus born ego. There is self is Ai, Ai is selfish, greedy to possess what he loves, if not, then the anger and delusion arises ... suffering his misery, creating karma. Whatever karma, good or bad, once created, it is preserved forever in consciousness from generation to generation, never being lost.

According to science, the thoughts or actions that make a good or bad impression, which I repeated often, are impressive in my long-term memory.

When people die, the five aggregates disintegrate, the four elements of earth, water, wind, fire return to the four elements, and the karma continues to follow the death consciousness. It is the karma that motivates and leads death consciousness to be reborn.

The theory of  "The Twelve Lovers"  describes human life through the past, present and future. People who are caught in the wheel of samsara cannot escape because of  ignorance . Ignorance gives birth to Onion, Birth to consciousness, Consciousness to produce Identity, Life to Life, and Life to Life. next), Birth to the Old Dead. Just like that life goes on:  Living and dying, dying and living ..., not knowing where to start and not knowing where to end.

 

WHERE DO HUMAN OR LIVING COME FROM, WHERE TO DEATH ON THE BUDDHISM OF BUDDHISM?

When there is sexual intercourse between man and woman during the period when the woman can conceive and predestinate, the consciousness of the dead will fall into the mother's fetus. In the womb, the fetus attracts the essence of humiliation, and then the mind merges with the body to form the Sacrifice. Name is consciousness. Sac is physical. Over time Danh Sac in turn pictured all the six bases: eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind.

At the end of the day, the fetus is born, the baby's six senses come into contact with the naked child, so the baby knows whether it is hot, cold or painful. Due to this touching, the child mind gradually generates discrimination, from which there is a sense of joy or suffering. This unpleasant sensation produces unpleasant, dislike or dislike feelings. It is the craving that makes it entrenched, trying to cling to what it likes and to ask to be satisfied with those preferences, so it creates karma, and karma must bear karmic retribution.

Question:  Where do people come from, where do they die?"  There are many ways to answer, but reasonable or unreasonable is depending on the concept and belief of each person, we do not reject.

According to the Buddhist teachings, after death, according to the Humanity created in the present life, rebirth in the six realms. If people who live in this world create many good and good causes, know how to open their hearts to help others, keep the righteous morality, then after death they will be reborn in heaven to enjoy blessings. Human realms are realms of suffering. To be born in the human realm is to repay, to repay the things we have done in this life or many previous lives. The A-Tu-La realm is the realm of the gods when they live in this life, they create many good causes, but their temper is so hot when they die, they return to the A-Tu-La realm. And the other three realms are the realms of Sanh, Ngạ Fund, Hell, in the business called three evil roads, three bad roads. People will be reborn in evil realms if in their present life they commit so many sins that harm those around them, or commit cruel acts of killing people, killing animals, etc.

We mortals with the naked eye cannot see the invisible realms. The Buddha is an enlightened being who knows and teaches us. As a Buddha learner, we know that what the Buddha taught us is due to our practice and enlightenment and is not based on anyone's doctrine.

 

A person born from the people

Important teachings of Buddhism is  causal,  is  Causation,  as this can have the other one, this one was born that arises; this is not that, it will kill that. Such means we  "sow  's  does get  kick  it."  In the present life, we are receiving the fruit of joy, sorrow, happiness, or suffering, because we sow the Sage of suffering or bring happiness to the person from the previous life. And the Fruit in the present life, if not cultivated to repair, it is the Causes to bear fruit for us to receive in the future. People go on and on like this one after another endlessly life after life in a twelve-link cycle.

From this point we know that mankind is born of cause and effect and not only lives one life in this present, but has gone through many lives in the past and in the future to continue many other lives. So death is to abandon the current body in this life to have a new body in the next life. In other words, living is the replacement of the previous body to have a new body in this life. With the eyes of the wise, the person of this life and the person of the next life are neither one nor two.

 

How to get rid of a death penalty

Buddhism is the religion that teaches people to practice enlightenment and escape suffering. The liberation here is to escape from samsara. In the Bible, the Buddha said: " Born, Old, Sick, Death, Sorrow, Pollution are the things that are born on their own." This  Being  leads people into samsara. When he knows the dangers of the Being,  "He seeks for the  Non-Being ". 

The  Emptiness  is the supreme state that is safe from suffering, that is the state of  Nirvana.

In the third day of the night of enlightenment, the Buddha attained the Good Harvest, knowing that it is true that people are reborn between samsara or karma. So want to get rid of samsara is to  practice how to clean gonorrhea or . In gonorrhea or there are three main diseases of  greed and delusion , we must practice how not to have this poison in our minds.

Starting to practice we need to have the Wisdom of enlightenment to learn what the Buddha realized and teach us again. Understanding the Buddha's Perceptions in order for us to have a proper view of the worldly phenomenon and ourselves. We must realize that the universe or the human being belongs to the world of time and is influenced by the law of translation, so the existence of long or short, must undergo the cycle of success, destruction, destruction and destruction. (zero), to become something else.

Through the Sutta of the Selfless One, we understand our being due to the gathering of the five aggregates. We ourselves have two equally important parts: body and mind. We need a healthy body to take refuge in and practice spiritually. How to practice spiritually? The Buddha taught the methods of  Quan, Chi, Dinh and Hue  as the means to achieve enlightenment and liberation.

Initially we aim to be close to our human life first. That is how to cultivate body health, peace of mind, wisdom. After that, we will proceed to the higher goal of escaping suffering, liberation, and enlightenment. The path of conversion from Tam Tam Phu to Tam Thanh Tam to the Buddha Mind is the ideal path for countless lifetimes. 

 

HOW IS TU TU?

-  Tu Quan, Tu Hue:  To convert awareness, to change the view of life, about jobs, about love for men and women, gratitude for husband and wife, for material wealth. Those things are in our hands but maybe one day we will lose all. When that happens we understand that everything is inherently impermanent if we calmly accept it and we will not be sad. That we have Hue.

Tu Quan to have a look at ourselves ourselves right now in this moment is subject to the laws of translation. It changes every minute. Someday old age, sickness and death will come to us. Accepting the truth we will not feel so afraid and sad when every stage of life comes to us when we are healthy and sick.

- Thu ending  six bases: Six senses exposed to six ceiling, see, hear, touch the object clearly know the object but do not initiate hatred, criticism, reaction at all, meaning that the subject knows nothing like yet in my head do not whisper about the subject. That the Knowing is about the object. This practice is also known as Vipassana Dharma and belongs to Vipassana Meditation, which helps calm the mind and bring it to Jhana.

 

- Tu Chi, Tu Dinh:  In daily life our minds are always agitated because of that and that thought, it is full of greed, hatred, delusion, etc., so it leads to afflictions and suffering. The mind is constantly fluctuating, so we never  "enlightenment"  to anything. Now we practice living in the Wordless Know.

Tu Chi is how to make our mind quiet and serene. Practice by doing what we know we are doing.

For example:  Sweeping a house to know sweeping a house, vacuuming to know it is vacuuming, washing a dish, knowing that it's washing a dish .... but not having any thoughts in the head means not thinking, not mumbling in the head of stars that are so dirty, so many bowls and so on. That is we are cultivating Only meditation.

Meditation Only helps calm the mind but it is not peaceful. When sitting meditation, experience the mind of a firm and tranquil mind. Meanwhile, there is nothing but the wordless in the mind, the three karmas are pure. Thus, we can create pure Humanity now and here. That is our immeasurable merit, even if it is only five, ten minutes or so.

 

  

CONCLUDE

Once we understand how samsara and where life comes from and where it dies, we don't desire for life because we know this body of the five aggregates is not intrinsic, so it will not. With time, it is influenced by the law of translation, so it is impermanent every minute. Life or death, depending on where the predestined relationship or tan ... that changes. And for death, we will not be afraid, because death is not an end, not a complete disappear, but a change of old and new. The present birth is only one birth in countless births. Death in the present is just one death among countless deaths.

The important thing is how we live in this life, so that we can have a better life later. Each time we die, going to another life is a good opportunity for us to learn in order to evolve on the spiritual path. People often say : "There  is a day to grind iron iron ", let us embark on grinding large ingots of iron right now from our heart, by practicing living according to the Buddha's teachings. Keeping the moral precepts clean, doing good deeds to avoid evil, practicing Hue, and cultivating Dinh to promote spiritual wisdom. That is the path of  About-Dinh-Hue  that the Buddha has taken. When the light of wisdom is in harmony, the darkness of ignorance disappears. Ignorance is no longer the cycle of reincarnation also disintegrates, then the practitioner is completely free from suffering, liberation, enlightenment.

Having learned the Buddha, we know that our peaceful and happy life or suffering is not caused by anyone else, but by the law of cause and effect, that cause and effect is our own control. We can create good or bad causes to receive good and evil results. Even the Buddha cannot save us from the three evil paths or from the cycle of birth and death, but only we can save ourselves.  So, we have to choose for ourselves a way of life, so that when we die, we will control our own serenity with virtue and wisdom or we will be burdened with heavy karma. The master leads us to be born in places corresponding to the sinful life of our greed and delusion to receive the fruit of Karma caused in this life. END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.29/6/2020.
