Merit monastic practice it is not inconceivable. Practicing mindfulness (just one of ten) will achieve merit and blessing .
1. Merit renunciation: renunciation school, do not go to hell
At one time Buddha was at Bhikkhu-ly, by the pond of Di-almost, along with five hundred of them.
Then World Religion up to now, hugged the bowl, and A-nan into the Bhikkhu-amnesty-qifu gangui. Then in the Pi-amnesty-ly had a great chief named Pi-la-first. This person is rich, many properties cannot be counted. But stingy greedy no mercy, just enjoy the old blessings, not create new blessings. At that time, he was playing with harems in harem singing and singing.
World Religion went to that direction, He knew but still asked Venerable Ananda:
- Now we hear the chorus, technician is in which home?
Ananda Bach Buddha:
- It was at the house of the fake head Pi-la-fairy.
Buddha told Ananda:
- This author after seven days will die and be born in hell The Khoc. Why is that? It is common sense. If the person is wholesome, then all beings are born in the hell The Khoc. Now this old blessed chief has finished, refusing to create new ones.
Ananda Bach Buddha:
- Is there any predestined relationship that makes this chief after seven days not die?
Buddha told Ananda:
- There was no predestined relationship that prevented him from dying. The practices he cultivated in the past, are finished today. This is inevitable.
Ananda Bach Buddha:
- Is there a way to prevent this bourgeois from being born into hell?
Buddha said:
- Ananda! There is a way to keep the elder from going to hell.
Ananda Bach Buddha:
- What causes do not lead the author to hell?
Buddha told Ananda:
- If this fake beard bearded beard hair, wearing three forensics, renunciation of religion can be off this crime ...
2. Merit renunciation: Dai Ca Lettuce refuge
One day, the Buddha manifested his illness, he quietly rested and recuperated. King Qin Ba Sa La heard the news, hurriedly called to meditate as Ky Ba went to see The Blessed One to treat him.
When the Buddha was healed, the venerable Ky Ba wanted to bring an offering to make him. But thinking back and forth, he did not know which gift to give. In the end, he remembered having once cured a neighboring king, and the king thanked him by giving him an excellent set of clothes. This type of clothing, apart from the emperors, is the only Buddha worthy to wear. He brought the aforementioned clothes to the Buddha and said:
- World Religion, from when I see the Tathagata until now, in my heart, I have a question. The Blessed One often said, in this world our bodies are worthy. But I found that the disciples of the Blessed One often wore ragged, dirty clothes. As a physician, I see how to explain it, doing so is still unhygienic. This costume is given to you by a neighboring king. May I offer the Buddha an offering, let me plant a little seed of virtue. I also bowed to the Blessed One, tell the monks, from now on, don't wear dirty, ragged clothes anymore.
The Buddha did not hold on to anything, so he accepted the opinion of the Lady in a joyful manner. And for the transmission to tell the monks said:
- Wearing clothes, regardless of old or new, must be simple and clean. And definitely must be disinfected with sunlight. If it is not right to indulge in fancy, beautiful clothes, it is not legal to wear dirty, ragged clothes to show that you are a religious learner.
The Buddha's word was already transmitted, the people of Vuong Xa went to war to make a lot of clothes to make offerings to monks. The offerings of the Buddha and the monks were numerous. So the rumor spread to a rich man.
The rich man was named Dai Ca Lettuce, in Ma Ha Sa La La village not far from Vuong Xa. He was smart and broad-eyed, the richest man in the world, the most outstanding figure of the Brahmin class. Whenever the Buddha preached at the Truc Lam monastery, he would come to listen to the lecture. Finally, his mind slowly penetrated the teachings of Tathagata. He even thought of renunciation following Buddha.
One day on the way back, he had just come to Da Tu tower in Vuong Xa citadel, in an area with many stumps of big branches of luxuriant leaves intersecting. Strangely, the Buddha is sitting right there, still. He looked forever at the solemn and majestic Buddha, and found that it was impossible not to come to bowing to him. He came to the Tathagata court and gave his hands to the court.
- Bach The Ton, my teacher! Please accept this for Ca Mau Lettuce taking refuge, from this day Dai Ca Lettuce is a disciple of Buddha.
The Buddha clearly saw the faith of Dai Ca Lettuce should say:
- Dai Ca Lettuce, you are my disciple, I am your teacher. In this world, if anyone has not witnessed the righteous Samyutta, he cannot be accepted as a disciple. Please come with me.
Buddha stood up silently, heading towards Truc Lam Vihara and going. Dai Ca Lettuce walked behind the Buddha respectfully, with tears flowing down his face. Buddha turned his head to look at Mahā Yāshapa then said:
- Today we know that his predestined fate has come. Very well, later on the transmission of the Dharma will need him a lot.
The Buddha turned Mahāiếpiếp rồiiếpiếp rồi rồi rồi rồi, and the Buddha Dharma at Wang Xa citadel had a solid base, the monastery of Linh Thu Mountain was also established at this time. The king, the wise people, came to many refugees, and the teachings of the Buddha became more and more popular ...
3. The renunciation story
At one time the Buddha was in the Bhikkhu-amnesty, and it was time for the Buddha's son to join the alms round.
Now, in Pi-amnesty-ly there was a Le-away named Pi-la-off-na (translation of military solution). This prince and the girls upstairs have fun, immersed in lust. Meanwhile, Germany World Religion used Necessarily listen to that sound and then told Ananda:
-We know this person is full of sensual pleasures, after seven more days, the common life. Thus, he will separate happiness from relatives, must definitely die. Ananda! If this person does not give up sensuality, does not become a renunciate, then the common life may fall to hell.
Now, obeying Buddha's instructions, wanting to benefit this prince, Ananda went to his house. The Prince heard Ananda outside went out to welcome him, with respect and respect, invited Ananda to come to his home to sit. Ananda was just sitting, the Prince started to respectfully respect Ananda
- Dear friends, good friends have come here! Today, at the right time, I met the Venerable with great joy. If the Venerable is happy, he can teach me the Buddha's teachings, help me be at peace
The Prince rarely invited so three times. Ananda wanted the prince to have many benefits, so he did not speak. The prince replied:
- Bhikkhu-a-a-ni-ni-great-benefit for all beings, is there any hatred that automatically does not say? Did not say anything for the third time. He is the holder of the Buddha Dharma, who benefits the world.
An-nan sadly said,
- Listen, after seven days you will die. If you are in the five sensual desires, not renunciants, then your life will go to hell. Buddha is a wise person, righteous speech and righteous talk about you like that. For example, if the fire burns everything, it is not wrong. You should think carefully.
The prince heard that so scared, sad, melancholy unhappy saying:
- According to the teachings of An-nan I have to become a monk but I want to enjoy six more days of pleasure. On the seventh day I will say goodbye to my renunciants.
Ananda was satisfied. To the seventh day Pi-la-off-na fear of life and death for the Buddha, the Buddha immediately agreed. One day and one night, Tien-nuns cultivated the precepts and then died together. After the smoke incineration finished, Ananda and Tianna's relatives came to Buddha and asked:
- Dear Reverend! Bhikkhu-stilts Pi-la-off-na now has the same network consciousness born about?
The Buddha said to Ananda:
- Hey Ananda! Bhikkhu-stilts Pi-la-off-na was afraid of being born in hell, so he renounced the ordination, in one day and one night of renunciation of renunciation, renouncing this life, rebirth in the four heavenly gods, becoming a Bhikkhu son Thien-Vuong subjects in the North. The bohemian mind of five sensual pleasures, the five sensual longevity with the female body, together they play for the age of 500.
When Tien-na finished 500 years of life to return to heaven 33 as a child, he enjoyed the full five desires, the most blissful heaven. Tien-na and the beautiful female body in the sky lasted 1000 years, making the most of Diem-heaven as a prince of Diem-heaven. Self-liberation enjoy life, color, flavor, taste, contact in the sky, sensual pleasure, 2000-year-old life in heaven, the network of birth to heaven Where-interest rate as a prince. The mind is comfortable with five sensations when the eyes see the general form, the mind is boring, often speaks grammar and the wisdom of liberation.
In the heavens, the life expectancy is more than 4,000 years old, giving birth to the self-at-heaven to become the Son of God, enjoying all kinds of sensual pleasures in the female body, improvisation lasting 8,000 years. At the age of 8000, his life will return to Heaven to become a helper, and to become the Son of Heavenly King.
This 6th heaven, sensual pleasures in which the five heavens below cannot be compared. Born into it already, among the pleasures of joy and darkness. When sensual pleasure is there, the mind is so passionate, fully enjoying the sensual pleasures of life for a thousand and six thousand years. Such pleasures go back and forth seven times in the six realms of sex.
Bhikkhu-lu-na-na due to a day and a night renunciation should complete 20 lives, do not fall to hell, hungry ghosts, animals; often natural, loving, natural blessing. In the last human race born into the rich, happy, rich property, full security.
When the adult age was over, the illnesses and fears of the illness of old age and sickness, Tien-na was boring in life. Monk shave off his hair, his body draped in a uniform, diligently cultivate diligently, keep 4 majesty, often practice mindfulness. Contemplation-sound, Suffering, No, No-self, understand the legal conditions, the Bich-chi Buddha brand name is Bhikkhu-save-base. At that time, he released a great light with many gods. Mankind produces wholesome roots and helps the beings of the three vehicles be liberated.
Then Ananda put his hands on the white Buddha:
Dear Exalted Sir! If there are people who become ordained, who ordained to shoulder everything, how much merit is there? If someone destroyed the story of another renunciate, what was the life of the newspaper? Please invite the Blessed One to tell me thoroughly.
Buddha said:
- Hey Ananda! If he lived to be 100 years old enough to ask me this, then I would also get infinite wisdom because he speaks broadly for exactly 100 years, except for meal time. This person can not say all merit, they are born in heaven, or in the human race often make monarchs, enjoying the bliss of nature. If they help the renunciate into this Sa-dharma, because of helping that renunciation, then they even enjoy being in samsara. Even if we are 100 years old to say the merit of that person is not over. So, Ananda! He has a hundred years of age to extend his life to ask me, and I live until Nirvana, saying this merit never ceases.
Buddha told Ananda again:
- If someone sabotages another's renunciation, he or she will be robbed of endless treasures of good fortune, and destroy the human being of seven support Bodhi Nirvana. If you want to sabotage predestined karmic renunciation, you have to contemplate that kind of thing. Why, because that crime will go to hell, often blinded, extreme misery.
If animals are born, they are also born blind. If born in hungry ghosts, born blind also born, fell in 3 wicked ways do not know never freed. If born as a human being, the fetus is blind in pregnancy. If he lived a hundred years old, he often asked that meaning, and we have enough one hundred years of wisdom to explain the crime.
If you see the renunciation of religious practice leading to liberation, breaking his monastic work, working to prevent, having predestined conditions that were born blind, do not see Nirvana is due to destroying renunciants .
The renunciants have seen the five elements - warm, 20 falls - ants, human world, righteousness, that the renunciant renunciation as destroying the right view. Therefore born often blind, not see righteousness. The renunciation saw all the dharma practice, the legal residence, saw the pure dharmakaya Buddhas. That broke the story of other renunciates should be born blind, can not see the Dharma body.
Because the renunciants have full appearance Sa-Mon, Phuoc Dien seeds of Buddhism. And keep the purity. Should the cause of breaking the renunciation is in good legal paragraph all hope.
The intellectual is that the renunciant will accomplish good dhamma like that, should not destroy the karmic affinity that goodness. So will not be guilty. Whoever destroys the story of another monk being a monk, is forever unable to see the city of Nirvana, born often blind.
Anybody who goes crazy for sexually abusing a girl, not a prostitute, being resisted, and born with hatred, that crime cannot count. If there is a right-thinking person again, having a renunciant mind, someone else sabotaging this renunciation who does not let them be satisfied, then the predestined karmic retribution begins to grow until a hundred lifetimes.
Ananda Bach Buddha:
- Dear Reverend! Bhikkhu-saw-na-na thanks to the seeds of goodness of birth, enjoy the bliss because the past also has good deeds. Today just thanks to the merit renunciation a day and a night that enjoy such blessings.
Buddha told Ananda:
- He does not need to observe the past predestined relationship, for a day and a night, the pure renunciation is wholesome. In the six realms of heaven, seven times of happiness. In 20 lifetimes often suffer from birth and death. Among the last humans in the world to enjoy the happiest scene, born in a wealthy house. As the adult age passed, the bases gradually weakened, and he was afraid of the suffering of birth and death, so Pi-la-off-na ordained the ordination as Bich-chi Buddha.
Buddha told Ananda again:
- I will say for example, he cleverly listened. For example, people like: Dong-phat-ba-de-san, Nam-diem-fitting-title, Tay-cù-da-ni, Bắc-uất-knit-Việt, A-la-Han dwellers in those 4 realms are as many as jungle rice. If any one of them is 100 years old and dedicated to making an offering of these Arahats until after they attain Nirvana, build a temple tower, all kinds of legs, use verses to chant exclamation, offering, then gain merit.
And whoever, because of Nirvana ordained ordained, only one day and night to create merit, this merit will be 16 parts. The previous merit is only partially. According to such predestined conditions, good men should become ordained monks and nuns.
Hey the good guys! Those who need merit, pray for good dhammas, and self-initiation of dharma cannot stop the renunciation from praying for incentives to help them achieve.
At that time, the whole audience listened to Buddha preaching that no one was not bored with life. They ordained, some people obtained Tu-da-complete. Even someone attained Arahantship. Some people sow seeds of Bich-chi Buddha, some people play the mind of upper Bodhi Bodhi. Everyone was very happy to pay homage to worship.
From the tales of renunciation merit, Buddhists should take time to devote themselves to attending retreats, especially short-term monastic retreats. Many good deeds and blessings are newly created, and the deeds are cultivated.
