Six Great Principles are just six bright paths (path of clarity). Also known as the six types of wisdom, the six types of pestle, and the six types of love glasses.
No war, no greed, no bridge, no selfishness, no self-interest, and no lying: This is the basis for being a human being, a basis for spiritual practice, and a standard for the government.

What other people want, I don't want. If others don't use it, I pick it up. I like that! Can you all do the same? If so, I congratulate you as good Buddhists.

If you have studied and practiced Dharma for decades but are still greedy for money! Still looking forward to fame and gain !. Still greedy, paintings don't stop. That is because you do not understand how to study and practice the Dharma. If you understand how to learn Buddha, you will not want these things anymore.
When cultivating the Tao, you must rely on not competing, not greeding, not seeking, not being selfish, not being self-interested, and not lying. Only then will you have the right understanding and the right view (right understanding) and can cultivate the Way.

If a person has a mind of greed, a greed, a mind, a gain, self-promotion, or wants people to worship their own personality, if you are self-interested or self-interested, not telling the truth, you should know that the person That is the realm of evil.
If you can not compete, not greed, not expect, not selfish, not self-interest and not lie, then the Dharma dwells in the world.
The purpose of spiritual practice is to stop all mental states, craving, desires, self-interest, self-interest, and lying. We want to prevent suspensions from working. Right there, the wisdom will manifest and emit great light, illuminating the night of ignorance. Then we clear the Mind Tanh Tanh (understand The mind sees nature) and achieve the purpose of austerities.
No war, no greed, no desire, no selfishness, no self-interest, and no lying - all of this is considered true. When the mind uses true merit, all karma will be eliminated. If the mind is not honest, the karma will cling to you.

Why can't you be fearless? It is simply because you are still competing, greedy, desiring, selfish and self-interested. So you don't feel free.
What is true science? No painting is science. No greed is science. Not expecting anything to be scientific. Unselfish - true science. No self-interest - that is true science. In addition, if you do not lie, it is also true science.

No Painting
In the religious practice , should be careful to not fight with others. Do hospitality war or aggression. Do not be short-tempered . That way, you will separate yourself from the astral species .
Why can't people live in harmony in this world? Because they compete game together, robbing won the same and not make concessions to each other. Therefore, war broke out, resulting in a state devastated, broken families .
Cause the devil became the devil is because they have a heart towards league competition won . There is a saying that :
Painting is more than losing,
Going against the Dao,
Born into four generals
How to be Tam-sam?
When a demon not win the position number one, then depart consciousness angry evil , g him jealous , and obstacles . Anyone who has such thoughts or behaviors is evil and will never become a Buddha forever .
Cultivator operating not be there struggle with how gi Security . K hips competition or tournament competition with anyone. Everyone efforts public employees . People other efforts are just as good use of his own efforts to use the same. If failure to think like that , then you would not be interested scramble leading position.
If you no longer contained any of a mind game competition does , then you will be cut off by contact with the world of the asuras. If you're not greedy, then you shall cut off l iên system with the world's animal species.
No Greed
I have a very strange nature. What others want, I don't want. What other people want, I don't care, what other people like me don't like.
As a Buddhist disciple, you should endure the lack of food, endure cold, hunger. In every situation you should be in accordance with the Buddha Dharma. Not greedy food, nice clothes or living in a luxurious place. There should be no greedy enjoyment. Suffering will all end suffering, but if the blessed will be blessed.
Should not be greedy fake name. In every gesture of action, in every word and deed, you need to be honest, you have to be completely honest. That is the basic personality (identity) of Buddhists.
Buddhists we need to have the eyes of "Dharma Eye". We should not have greed for comfort or touch, should not use greed to go everywhere praying for the Dharma. Should not be like today heard that Hien Tong was good, he studied according to Hien Tong, but the next day there was a Tantric person or he went to Tantric to learn. Although you have cultivated all your life, but because you do not have a firm tone, you cannot specialize, cannot be homogeneous, cannot hold on to "one", so it is just a waste of life in the end.
You consider spiritual practice as your duty. There is no need to be greedy. Over the course of the month the merit will be fulfilled and naturally you will achieve the Bodhi fruit.
While practicing, use the exercises naturally. Don't be greedy and wonder if it works or doesn't work. Don't think of anything ; keep on using and fixing your mistakes daily.
Practitioners regardless of any practice, such as reciting Buddha's name, reciting mantras, reciting sutras, observing the precepts or practicing meditation, should not be greedy. If you wish to see it quickly, it is also a kind of greed. Once there is greed, it will interfere with your premonition and self-clarity. Self-luminous nature is completely devoid of greed. Once there is greed, it is like dust clinging to a mirror. Austerities need to understand this point. Should not be greedy, should not be greedy.
People with greed never have peace. If they do not take part, they will be peacefully free. So let's eliminate greed.
How many people have become paralyzed because of greed? How many people lost their homes because of greed? This is a dangerous thing to people, we can not help but be cautious.
Why are you being transferred from a realm. Because the mind is curious. Curious mind is basically also a form of craving.
No Desires
Regardless of how we use the merits, we are not in accord with the virtue, never being successful. Where is the cause? It is because we have delusion, there are unreal expectations . We expect the higher and the higher, to seek fame and fortune. All are disappointments.
You wish for happiness outside, seek happiness from morning till night. If it is achieved, it is only temporary happiness. And if you do not achieve it is born of disturbing mind. You insatiable greed, just want to have happiness, get it, then you are afraid of losing it. This is not true happiness. True happiness is not wishing. There is a saying that 'unconvinced originality', meaning that when one reaches an unwanted place, there is no worry. If you no longer wish, that is true happiness. That is the true peace of your nature.
Unselfish
Basically there is only one rule, that is not selfish. If people are selfish, they will transgress. If they are not selfish, they will not transgress. Also, if they are selfish, they will be organized. If not selfish, then they will not be organized.
The main mind is not selfish. If you are selfish, you don't have the right mind.
Why do we not recognize our entries? It is because we cannot abandon the self, not the selfishness. If we are no longer selfish or selfish, we will receive the identity of our item.
Secular people are always up and down. They are always selfish as motivation. They want to protect their life and property. Dharma is great and carefree, the goal is to benefit people.
Tao Dao needs to "go back." What does it mean? That is to give the good deeds, and I take the bad part - flushing the self to achieve great self
What kind of bad person? A selfish, self-interested, self-interested person who forgets moral integrity.
No benefit
If we can, we must quickly benefit people. There is a saying,
"The best talent in the world,
Function of neutral nature. ”
(Cultivate spiritual land,
Nourish the nature sky.)
If we often benefit people, then over time we will create merit. If we always want others to benefit us, but we do not benefit others; If we always find ways to gain comfort and depend on others, we are completely useless.
If we benefit people and make them happy, wherever we go, people will follow us.
When students begin to learn to be human, we teach them not to pay attention to the benefits, not to see money as important. The ancients studied to learn morality (rationality). Today people learn for fame and fortune. They want to be famous and have great benefits. Why? Because school teaches students improperly. So the world gets worse every day, every day gets worse.
Ordinary people think the benefit for him is a Bodhisattva. Ordinary people think the benefit for themselves is that the Bodhisattva devil only knows others but not himself. Whereas the devil only knows himself but not others. These two components are completely opposite .
Do not lie
Unless you say so. If speaking, always speak honestly. Never say anything to fool people. In any case, we honestly tell the truth, and always keep our mouths, not lying.
I do not lie. Wherever I am, I try to be honest. I speak and act frankly, and I do not use any tricks in treating people, everything (dealing in material). If there was something I wanted to say, I would say it no matter where. I am not afraid to offend people. If there's something I don't want to say, I won't say it no matter where. I absolutely do not lie or cheat people.
People should be honest more often. Even when beaten or scolded, we still tell the truth. Do not be afraid. I tell you, I am a righteous person. I am the one who upholds an upright life without stooping back. If people want to punish me, go ahead and do it; no problem. If you punish me for telling the truth, I still think it's worth it, and I won't resent it. I don't expect people to believe anything I say. Even if they didn't believe me, I still tried my best.
Why do some people use the exercises without progressing in spiritual practice? Because they lie too much. When saying a lie, hundreds of delusions arise.
If you lie, then whatever you chant will not work. Or recite any Sutta, there will be no inspiration. If you want to chant or chant scriptures that have been touched or accomplished, you cannot lie. Be honest, say true, need to say truth, not embroidering.
We should broaden our horizons and have a liberal mindset. We should not only know ourselves, or only know our family, or only know our country. We must expand the mind to the extent of nothingness that covers the Dharma Realm. Need to think for the whole of humanity, not just calculate for yourself. Bringing benefits to humanity, not harming humanity: This is the basic condition for practicing Buddhism.
How can we benefit mankind and not harm mankind? We must practice the Six Great Principles of the Ten Thousand Buddhas:
1. No Painting. We do n't fight with anyone: If you fight with me, I am not with you; You curse me, I don't scold you; you beat me, i don't retaliate; you lie, bully me, I don't lie, bully you. That is the consistent tone of the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas.
2. No Greed. The mind of greed and rebellion never has a bottom; whatever is money, material greed, greed is not ceasing, not enough. The greed is more and more is not giving is enough, the more greedy it is, the more greed and greed until old have not awakened yet! Being punished by this greed for a lifetime, I feel I have not captured this and that thing so I regret it; What a pity! In the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas, this second tone means not to take any money, benefits, or good reputation. In short, we are all not greedy; I just follow my duty to spread the Buddha Dharma, following the Buddha's destiny!
3. No Desires. The words "hope" and the word "greed" are not much different. "Greed" "sometimes does not, but" bridge "is constantly praying, always trying to link with other people to defend themselves, using any tricks to achieve a new goal. What bridge? Demand for money, material, in short, is for all benefits. In the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas, inwardly, inwardly towards the mind and not outward. "Internal mind wishing" is to eliminate all delusions, crazy minds, wild nature, jealousy, obstacles, greed, hatred, ignorance ...; I pray that all those things will be eliminated. I don't look outside but jewelry and makeup; just how to be pure and dignified inside is enough. There is a saying that: Selflessness and dignity (When people reach a place where there is no longer any expectation, their virtue will become high on their own.) When there is no bridge next to others, the natural quality is high. C ũng no dirty thoughts.
4. Not Selfish. Why did the world collapse so much? Because people too selfish: For this to his advantage, the scrambling that makes, what for me no good, then crossed his arms ng oh i see, such as the side of a fire, I also turned her ignore! Selfishness has many things, some are selfish for status, others are selfish for honor, for rights, or for money. In short, all of them are selfish and selfish, so they do not think of others, only care for themselves; should have sentences:
Mammoth slapped unforgivably,
Di-Da Buddha the old.
Mean:
The Bahamas slapped without thinking of other people,
Amitabha Buddha, everyone worried.
This is a joke with the idea of Hinayana. The Confucians also said :
The autism algae pre-snow,
Retention of people in the upper mist.
Mean:
Snow in front of the house, I sweep myself,
Mist the roof of the person, do not bother!
This is talking about manners not to worry about people. People in this world need to help each other and take care of each other, so it is advisable to initiate the Mahayana thought, study the spirit of the Bodhisattva, listen to suffering, come to save, do not turn away. !
People without selfishness can live together happily in the same house, because of selfishness, they create many problems. Therefore, Selfless Self is the fourth guideline of the Ten Thousand Buddhas.
5. No Self-Profit . This guideline is more important than the fourth one. Whoever does not profit, but le, I definitely do not profit; If everyone was like that, the world would be good. Not self-interest is to benefit others, only to forget yourself. "Discharge of people" means "self-sacrificing for people, this spirit is more than the behavior of the Bodhisattva! Bo-slapped the self-interest, self-forgiveness, self-forgiveness, self-discipline tha; And I am not self-interested but only self-benefit, just level, and only sense of forgiveness!
6. No Lie . Ie there is no mind deceiving others. Why do people lie? Because their fear of losing benefits, fear of losing their damage , the new should seek a lie! If we often treat people with sincerity and sincerity, we can naturally keep this Friday tone, which is no lie.
Today I bring S AU Great Principles introduces to you listen, if you want to preach to obviously never preached all. N If you practice S AU Great Principles is th ì predicates used are benefits su diode lifetime. Exploiting benefits no less.
Anyone can practice S AU Great Principles of Ten Thousand Buddhas would be enough capacity to become the Buddha's death . Six Great is this: K hip paintings , K hip participate, K hip pursuit , K hip selfish, K hip self-interests , and K hips lie. You can use the ethics of Buddhism to interpret these directions . You can also use the morality of the Tao Old man to explain. C ũng may explain the tone of this only by morality of Confucianism. Generally, you can explain to others in any way they like . V ới of morality are very afraid dung . They are very logical. N tokens cardboard only include the moral of all religions. They are very practical methods. C evil precepts of Buddhism can be interpreted in many different ways, but are not outside the scope of the Six Great Principles this .
1. If you don't fight , then you wo n't kill . The killing happens due to the control of the mind . When you compete , you have the attitude of "Get out of my way or to die!" The consequences of exile cannot be counted .
2 . If not greedy, it will not thieves stealing. Why wanted burglar stealing other people's things? Because of greed. If you are not greedy, then even if someone wants to give you something, you still don't want to receive it . Therefore, you should get rid of greed, when it you will not thieves stealing.
3. Without pursuit , there will be no lust . Lustful mind arises because there is a mind of desire . Female looking bridge boyfriend, male quest for a girlfriend . They k hips just looking, but employees in pursuit like nothing more important than . If they are not seeking , then how are they so lustful? A handsome boy or a beautiful girl is just two bags of foul meat! Is it worth the desire? If you are not seeking , You will not violate the precepts of adultery.
4. If not selfish, then will not lie. People lie because they are afraid of losing personal gain. Í ch century makes people lose control , they cheated and lied to others , with h y hope cover concealed the true face of his .
5. If you do not pursue personal interests (self-interest) , it will not violate rules forbidding use of substances causing sickness. Why do people like addictive substances? Because they want to make the body and mind frenzy , that they think that they have become gods or first , are excursions in heaven . K hi drunk, they 'd like la scolded every person, eager to want to desire growth . Some people also think alcohol is used to help increase blood circulation . After drinking, forget everything. It is something that stimulates like smoking opium. It was all because of self-control, so they used intoxicants.
6. Do n't lie. Why not lie is also one of the Six Great Principles ? For further emphasis . If you violate any of which belong in concrete just above , you will lie. If you do not violate the above instructions, you will not lie. Thus k hips n vomiting lie is one of the basic requirements for those who study Buddhism.
The six tone above is just another name for the five precepts . In fact , everyone has heard of these what is before it and to understand them , but very few people can actually practice them . That is why I remind everyone: No competition means no kill harmful . Not greedy means not thieves stealing. No pursuit means no adultery . Not being mean means not lying. No interest means no use of substances causing sickness.
The Buddhist Association's principle is always:
Cold dead, not grace.
Starve to death, not predestined.
Poor death, not predestined.
Depends on conditions but does not change;
No change but predestined.
Maintain our three principles.Discharge because of the Buddha.
Creating a network is your duty.
Correcting yourself is the Sangha.
Meet what he
understood , Understanding what the administration of that.
The most continuous communication circuit of the Founder.
Talking about spiritual practice, I feel that the monks and nuns should: (1) Do not go to fate with rich and powerful people. (2) Do not usually go outside to predestined and (3) Do not everything is directed to others for grace - for help.
"Cold dead, not fate." This is an expression of my life: When I was in Manchuria, in the winter and summer, I wore the same three layers of cloth - a layer of cloth worn inside and outside, and a layer of clothing with pieces. patch, piece by piece, patch, patch, patch, top up, is it cold now? Why is it that I have to endure like that? Because I want to follow the tone of "cold dead, unfortunate" !
" Hungry and dying, without predestination." When I was in the Quan Yin Cave, on Mount Phu Dung in Hong Kong, for two weeks I had no food. I went to meditate in the cave waiting to die. At that time, there was a lay disciple named Lao Khoan Thanh, nicknamed the "Wizard of the Earth" of that area. And he was dreamed Bodhisattva Vi Da consecutively three times that: "In the Quan Yin cave there is a Wizard named An Tu, you should go there to make offerings to him." So the next day, this layperson carried over thirty pounds of rice and brought over 70 dong to the cave to make offerings to me. Three or four months before this happened, the layman was bitten by a dog in his leg. The western and western medical doctors treated him for several months, but it did not cure; they just gave up. Bodhisattva Vi Da likes to worry about other people, so he told him: "If you go to make offerings to the Dharma Master in Quan Yin Cave, your feet will heal immediately." "So he trusted and brought rice and money to make offerings. At that time in the cave, I was about to starve to death, but I have never said to anyone before: "Please have mercy on me, so many days have passed and I have nothing to eat!" That is called "Starved to death, no predestined relationship."
" Poor death, no predestined." When I first arrived at Nam Hoa pagoda in Quang Dong, I did not have a single word on me. I did not even have money to send letters, but I had never been to the laity to be predestined. Therefore, these three great principles of mine are rooted, not baseless. When I bought the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas, people found this place too big and afraid that I would ask them to contribute, so they were afraid to stay away. Even so, I never complained to anyone about my difficulties. When I work, I don't expect any compensation and I certainly won't ask others for help. I just gritted my teeth and endured it.
Discharge because of the Buddha. What this means is we do not care about the life of her . We discard the body . Bleeding, e drive sweat , and did not stop to rest, they are not a come to work for Buddhism. Because of us? A are Buddhists and us? A has ordained , we are not able to simply look Buddhism decline fell and was n prolific others despise . Even still mean to abandon the life of us? A, we t a wish to make Buddhism develop. C basil t a wish to use Dharma to save people in the world between security remains fierce and oppressed it . We t a want c basil s a nh e is entitled to live in peace and peacefulness .
Creating a network is your duty . The ancients said: " The gentlemen have the learning to create destiny, Destiny was created by us, Blessed by us prayed. Blessed with painting has no door, Only by our own senses." (*). Us? A is ordinary, but we can change ourselves from the mundane to the saint .
Correcting yourself is the Increase. The renunciation must strictly abide by the Buddhist regulations . For example, the medical uniform worn by the monk is a special manifestation . If not covering the medical world, there is no appearance of a position Bhikshu . Eating one meal a day at noon is also a principle established by the Buddha. Reduce minimum amount of food and informal drink e em results reduced desire, lust . V With less desire, it is easier to practice . Therefore, we should not eat foods that are too nutritious. A ó is how us? A practice at Ten Thousand Buddhas City . Although not perfect too , they are not a hope everyone will use in order to improve themselves .
We need to Meet what he comprehends, Understand what that action with the Principle of Continuing the Master's transmission circuit. Everyone should work honestly and sincerely. Us? A did not need to say too much, and our job t a should exceed more than words to say of us? A . If we have faith in ourselves, it then others will surely follow us. That way, not only are we fulfilling duty who ordained, that Buddhism would be revived, and the Dharma Ending Age will naturally turn into the chief France.
Do not leave three robes, bowls and instruments; Eating one meal a day at noon is our style
When we practice spiritually, we must uphold our principles, not be forgotten. When studying Buddhism, we must also keep these principles in mind because they are our purpose. Once we have clearly realized our goals, we must move forward vigorously and diligently, not withdrawing. Referring to this issue, I recall when I was ordained as a monk, I thought: "Monks are many but do you all understand Buddhism?" Do all have a purpose? ”. Later, when I investigated this issue, I discovered that a large number of monks and nuns have no ambition to practice nor end samsara. In fact, they have almost no clear goals. They all make it through, "eat and wait to die". This type of renunciation does not help but on the contrary causes more debt, causes more trouble, and create more burden on Buddhism. They are of no use to Buddhism.
I further discovered that Buddhists in China were not aware of what Buddhism was. The Buddha preached Dharma Sutras, all so that the next life can understand the Buddha Dharma. So how do Buddha's disciples spread his teachings? If I think about it more closely, I realize that Buddhism is not really rooted in China. Buddhism in China does not really have a foundation, so it cannot stand up to the test and oppression from the outside. Why is there no basis? Because not aware of this platform. So what is the basis of Buddhism? The foundation of Buddhism is education. Education must start from children, must teach them knowledge of Buddhism, about the wisdom of Buddhism, and the thought of Buddhism. At least children are brought up and taught to be good and ethical citizens of the nation and the world. With a solid foundation in his thinking and goals, this person will be able to spread Buddhism extensively. Thus, the basic teachings of Buddhism will not be forgotten.
“People are not preaching people. So how do we become religious? Only when we have a clear goal, an ideal for us to wholeheartedly realize. As for the Buddhism that has lost its roots in China, it has neither a root nor a body, but merely rotates rhyme at the top of branches. Buddhism in China includes prayers for the dead. This is the state of Chinese Buddhism. They all did not anticipate that if this situation continued, they would create a ranks of nomadic wanderers who became Buddhists for a living. Unfortunately. They only know how to make money by performing prayers for the spirits. When performing these ceremonies if you are a virtuous monk, there is no need to recite sutras or mantras. You just need to say to this spirit: "Go reincarnate" then immediately this spirit will return to the Land of Ultimate Bliss. However, if you do not have virtue and do not focus on your virtue, what is the capacity for you to free sentient beings? In fact, you are already in debt to the benefactor. Moreover, the practices established by the Buddha are no longer valued
For example, Chinese Buddhism has no one to follow the tradition of raising the precepts in everyday life. Why do not they cover the medical? Well, if you ask them, they don't know why. In fact, monks and nuns have to dress and wear one meal a day. But they have forgotten all this. The idea was that they were 108,000 miles away from their memory, so they no longer knew the meaning of wearing a maternity dress and eating one meal a day. In Chinese Buddhist circles, no one understands this. There may be one or two people who wear robes and eat once a day, but probably not have so many in the tens of thousands. It can be said that they are even rarer than the phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. It is very rare. If you ask them what a monk should look like, they are very blind. Today in China and other countries, Most of the renunciations in the Northern tradition do not cover the medical world. Well, they feel this is a very natural thing, obviously. Did they know that when they did not cover the monks, they would no longer show the bhikkhu.
They said, "Ah! Theravada Buddhism (Mahayana) is about the Bodhisattva, even though the Bodhisattva does not cover the medical world, they are still that Bodhisattva. ” Well, as a Bodhisattva, they still have to wear robes, because they have to be especially solemn. You see that Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, Great Bodhisattva Bodhisattva all carry precious jewels. Though only a prime minister, these jewels lure another thing. These jewels are all manifestations, these adornments signify the solemn realms of Buddha. Therefore, austerities need to follow the rules. Don't walk your heels or make crazy gestures. You say, "But why is the Venerable Te Cong crazy?" The High Priest was mad because he wanted to call people to give alms to crazy people. Also because He wants to educate the laypeople should not despise the insane, nor should they despise them.
Why are monks and nuns following Mahayana Buddhism everywhere not wearing robes? That is because when Buddhism spread to the North, because the North climate was too cold, it was not warm enough to cover one medicine. The renunciant could not bear the cold so they had to wear a few more layers of robes underneath this robes. These layers of clothing underneath can help avoid the cold, but when covered, it is easy for him to slip down. When Buddhism first spread to China, perhaps the monks were not very skillful. They may be a bit clumsy so their robes occasionally drop off. Once he lost his medicine because he did not have the money to build a new medicine, they had to go to predestined places to scare the house members. After a while, the monks came to a meeting and decided as follows: "It is incomplete because our robes are often lost and it is very difficult to get a new one. The Chinese live very frugally, tailoring a new clothes for us is not really cheap. It would be troublesome if we lost him. ” At that time, a seemingly foolish Patriarch thought of a solution. He said, "I have an idea. We can sew on a shirt with a clip and a loop and hook them together so that he won't slip out. "The monk's robes in China were made like that. the hook and the loop from which the renunciant's shirt no longer slips down. was added in China later, as you can see from the Theravada tradition that the robes of Indian monks do not have hooks and loops.
But in China, after these reforms, people began to withdraw and not build any more medicine. Because at that time, the monks and nuns had to take up farming work to sustain their life. When they went out to work, they had to take off their robes because it was not very convenient, so they wore only the inner layer. The medical community is set aside while they work. But after a while they no longer wear clothes even when they do not work outdoors. Some people still wear robes when they go to the main hall or during a boy's life. But in today's daily customs, renunciants no longer wear robes when they go to the main hall or during the life of a boy. However, they still consider themselves worthy of being monks and nuns. Actually today in countries such as China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Vietnam and all areas where Theravada Buddhism is practiced, monks and nuns only wear a long dress and they consider it to be monk's clothes. This is a big mistake. If the renunciants do not wear robes, it is the same as they have done. They are also no different than the home people. Just wearing a long dress with a round neck does not mean a renunciate. And even if you wear the robes, you still transgress the world every day and are not honest. let alone when you are not wearing a robe!
So in fact Buddhism does not exist in China as well as in places where "Buddhism" from China has been transmitted. It is no longer the original category of Buddhism. When I reflect on this situation, I want to make a reform to rectify this trend in China, but I know that I am just an ordinary person whose words have no influence. I have no position and no one listens to what I say. No matter how much I screamed at the neck, no one believed. Therefore I vow to rebuild Buddhism in the West and make Buddhism flourishing again so that the public can understand what Buddhism is. So as soon as I arrived in the United States, I advocated wearing robes and eating once a day. Because Americans always seek comfort, they don't like it when they are told to wear clothes. However, In the United States, there are a few monastics who do not wear gender, so I can recommend the practice of monastic wear. I also recommend eating once a day, because even before I left home, I ate once a day at home, and throughout the years after renunciation, I still eat once a day. Because I don't have the virtue nor any other spiritual accomplishments, I can only teach my followers to imitate my external manifestations.
Those who follow me ordained, whether male or female, must eat one meal a day. I only accept them if they can eat once a day. This is the iron and steel condition (must be obeyed) for those who leave home with me. Certainly can not be changed. Regardless of the time, whatever the pressure, in any case, this will not change. This is because I have advocated this Buddhist style of wearing robes and eating once a day for decades. I initiated this when I first arrived in the United States and I am still cheering on this to this day. As the years passed, people gradually became familiar with this and I believed that they would be willing to accept this with all their hearts. Everyone will understand the method I use to educate sentient beings.
Everyone knows the golden reputation of eating one meal of the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas . Whether walking, standing , sitting, or lying , the home person at Van Buddhist Holy City not leave the medical world . They have three robes, bowls and cushions (fabric sat) according to the precepts of Buddhism allows . T rong About Law clearly says that even the medical world arise ten kinds of merit . Even if you are not greedy to have merit , you cannot cannot be General Bhikkhu . You can say , "I have no greed, and I don't want merit ." You can not take want merit , but you still need to have blessed virtue . P Funny virtues by cultivating accumulated bit by bit that would be . Anytime, anywhere, you need to cultivate merit, cultivate wisdom . You must cultivate your merit and wisdom . If you do not cultivate merit, wisdom , you s E does not have the capacity to Life receive donations of people.
People inadvertently make bad habits become a convention. Those who do not wear the precepts are considered to be 'true Buddhists', while those who wear the precepts are considered to be fake. People who wear medical clothes are criticized and thought to be strange. C whopping Buddha owns three care , a bowl, and cushions ( fabric sit ) , and he always wears the medical world. The disciples of the Buddha , too . But when Buddhism imported to the US , all of which do not cover the medical world ! Then those in Buddhism began to say that covering up is wrong .
There is a story (Koan) on the students from the Middle States mainland l australia new to Taiwan. Because the students have fled to preserve life so none of the students , except one or two, remember to bring under diplomas graduate of himself . When they apply for entrance examination into universities in Taiwan, they panic when being requested supply by graduation of them. V ì So, they searched everywhere to find a diploma as samples. When they find a real diploma , they copy it to make a fake copy . H in g in i submit diplomas fake it to B at the intersection D ục, and then allowed to contest in the University and enroll in E ại H ọc. However, when someone sends a real diploma her to the Ministry of Education D ục , shall be considered a fake diploma . Ministry of Education D ục say, " Van diploma of c evil who else are clean and are kept guard carefully . T Why did diploma you back wrinkled and torn ? You certainly have forged diplomas and make it look old techniques and the dirty dirty with the purpose to everyone not recognized. " Therefore, the Ministry of Education D ục refused to accept degrees (true) this. All you please think think about this: N -heartedly the author shall be c ho is the truth, even the truth, it is said to be fake .
If the renunciants don't wear the precepts, then it's the same as they did. V ì Buddhism in the Middle States was corrupt, rotten peanut , I to countries outside uphold that home people should day eat a meal and always up for sex y t boar spear that of Buddha. , They are not a preserve provisions tubers day to eat a meal and e -stocked medical world . If you are aware of Van P room Opera , you would rather die than be changing the rules of this tuber. You will think : " He wants me not e -stocked medical world ? Please tell me dead, but do not tell me no e -stocked medical world ! Make sure I'm dead, but do not tell me not to eat one meal a day . " - with kind of solidification such force, with such faith , you are a member of the real Great Wall Buddhist Holy City. M Once I realized my goal , I would not change even if I had to die. N came even as in the meditation hall without covering the medical world, the oil can be enlightened immediately when both sat down, I also do not dare to do it!
For retreading medical world , in the Middle States not those ordained k hips up care instructions in meditation sessions, but they also do not cover the medical world at any time . There are no monasteries where people wear robes . They are used to it . If the renunciation does not cover the precepts , the appearance of the Bhikkhu Kheo is lost . N -heartedly shirt colorectal long and Shirt colon sleeve wide that they wear the costumes of the Tang Dynasty , which does not have to be a part of Buddhism. A. Article This has nothing to do proof ? Take a look see ! C evil monks Theravada Buddhism , even until today, they are always wearing the precept sash of them at all times . T n the stars in China renouncers not cover the medical world ? That is easy to understand. That is because the Middle States very hard working . H in doing a lot of work manual labor . K hi they go out to work, the medical community becomes an inconvenience . V ì So, when going out to work, they took the medical world and the only remaining shirt colorectal inside while working . Because the medical world interfere with their work , they stop again The making up of medicine. Sa u for a long time, they were familiar with the medical community does not cover and started to think that the shirt colorectal inside they wear during sleep is the costume suitable for home person. T moan fact, they only maintain costumes of the Tang Dynasty . Q aggregates coat of secular normally have to change the dress style , while renouncers retains dress styles old and unchanged Tang Dynasty costumes . They have considered e ó as costumes special person ordained , but that it is completely wrong. If you k hips e -stocked medical world, you are no different than a mundane with a head shaved . You do not have to be a home person ! Why not monks ? Because you are so sloppy . In each your behavior, every gesture, you do n't even know you 're a renunciate .
In the course of Zen, of course, they don't wear the precepts . In the Precepts, it says: "He does not leave his body". "Three medical, bowls, cushions need to carry around when traveling anywhere . If you do not bring under these items is violating the rules. But if you ask the home person does this, someone might say that the medical world they never leave the body they ? This is just a picture minister outside . This is not case cover medical world as it is a home person . If you wear the monk's dress without observing the precepts , then you still cannot be considered a renunciate . q Captain're just a Bhikshu commit sex, and even worse than the layman . Thus, even if you're up for the medical world, you also often delusions lewd, bonus idea thought up fees . If you do not cover the medical world anymore, then I do not believe that you are a Bodhisattva , or a location Thanh Van , h ay was a taste Pratyekabuddha .
Also c ó to eat day a meal . Why do I eat once a day ? T yes at p e i had thought was not rancid risk ệ n th rather beings in kh drive . Nh ữ ng ph UO c h worth UO ng, I e ề u t all exposed ng m o i ng UO i and kh drive c tempering a m o i ng UO i go over to m ot me ch ị u. The reason is because at Nh é t B An expedition against China, ng UO i Nh é t b à t ng UO i China and nh diodes in labor camps, forced to do labor c Gulp labored nh Falcon eat no e incubation no m ặc not e Heat insulation , so they b ị l sir nh ch ế t, hungry ch ế t, r oh i bring b in determining h in dogs. ThChinese people suffer like that, I realize that there are many people in the world who don't eat. Since v é y i b surely the first day eat m o t b ữ a . When I was eating three meals, I could eat five cups of rice at each meal. S au then when I started to eat one meal a day , I ate three bowls of rice, so I spent the twelve cups of rice for those who do not have food to eat. In a cold place like Manchuria , me Willing to wear only a layer of cloth even when it rains in winter. That way, cloth and cotton that I save to be able to spend for those who do not have clothes to wear . A ó is why I eat the day a meal . Later I left home, but because in the United States t bargain weather not too cold , I did not put restrictions on clothing. A amniotic with food, those ordained For me , whether male or female, all have to eat only one meal a day and help me save some food for people who do not have any food to eat.
In Central States do not have any place to eat day a meal . Retreat in the Middle States , can be called Food Interior ( key board). They have three times tea and four times rice, in addition to adding dumplings late at night. If you think you still use such diligence, I cannot believe it! I ate one meal a day and found it troublesome and troublesome already; And yet, what if you could eat four meals and add dumplings in the evening? T rong Buddhist Middle States they call dinner is " medicine" (pharmaceutical jelly). This called " headphones steal the bell ." It is deceiving yourself and deceiving others. H o want to eat at night , so they call it the " pill." That is Buddhism in China - a Buddhist deception n prolific . T O is no way to reform Chinese Buddhism. In the United States, I is established in overseas style totally different from the Buddhism in Asia. In the United States , all enjoy it. B Konig because their life is very comfortable, even if the home person with steamed buns and cakes to eat, even though they have good food to where not by food from home . Oh ! People at home can enjoy the feast of wasteful seafood and meat dishes. Therefore, I have initiated the practice of eating one meal a day to counteract this enjoyment. N Americans like to enjoy .
I come here not have to speak French to the Central States, I came here to teaching people the United States. The object of my teaching is the Americans, not the Chinese. N prolific Middle States just filler. T O coming from Asia, away from thousands of miles away , to the United States, completely on his own . A ến right into the center of the territory of the other religions , I initiated the practice of eating one meal a day as the antidote for lifestyle enjoyment of the United States . If you can eat one meal a day , the new can be ordained . If you can not eat one meal a day , then you are not eligible , not eligible for renunciation . That is eating one meal a day . For retreading medical world , in the Middle States I can not say " those who ordained " was actually leaving home
(ordained) or not? A. Thank basically I do not know. Anyone can shave their heads and do a few bites of incense and call themselves the home person . There is no standard of appearance . That is why I ask everyone left home at Ten Thousand Buddhas the City will cover the medical world . Me to the United States paved the way , I initiated the practice of e -stocked YV A meal a day .END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.21/7/2020.
