THE WEEKLY ROAD  . VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.

 

Cultivation  in itself is  the  most important effort in  all  so-called  Buddhism . From stabilizing an  inner  zoom canopy,  eliminating  the  confusion ,  until  the ability to calm the pain and  find  a fountain of  peace  , ... All are all only possible  achievements  from the  practice  and  path That practice  is nothing more than the  method of  Wisdom Quan , ie  the path of  contemplating the  Four Foundations of Mindfulness . And if you say it more roughly, oil is called by  words What, perhaps not as concise as the two words  Tu Tam (citta) or Italy (mano) or consciousness (vinnàna) are synonyms, depending on where to use, to refer to the so-called Danh Dharma, the   object perception (know scene). In the simplest analysis   , there are all 6 Consciousness and they have to depend on the  Six Objects (vatthu) to be able to work: the  Eye Consciousness  must depend on the Eye of Objects (the optic  nerve ), the  Atrium  must depend on the Turkish ( god of  hearing ),  Billion Soul  must rely on Billion Object ( neural olfactory ),  practical  to rely on Object Damage (Nervous  taste ),  Body Consciousness  must rely on body materials ( nerve  Tactile ) and  Consciousness  must rely on the Italian Physics (optional  realm  that Italy Material belongs List France (Center Huu section) or  Sac France  (such as the heart or brain, ..).
through the  senses  ( Luc Apartment ), 6 Soul  recorded  (unknown) 6 News scene  Luc Tran  (Lust, Silence, gas, taste, touch, France). If 6  the sense  that things  interesting leads , sweet, then in the  Consciousness  there will be  joy ,  satisfaction , love The world  is not  satisfactory things  ,  Consciousness  will have discomfort, hatred,  dissatisfaction . All of the known and the Feeling This, say under  the doctrine  Abhidharma  they are  born anti lightning ,  Sat Na  This  continuation  moment  there that  exist . But before or after, no  Person ,  Soul ,  Self , ... appeared in   this mind . Because the  existence  of  the consciousness of  sentient beings  is always a synthesis of  at the same time Many factors, including  feeling  good and bad bad ( aggregate ), the  experienced  psychological  ( Chiang Uan ), attributes thiein evil as  greed  or  love ,  wisdom , ... ( Acts Uan ). Life Aggregates ,  Thought Aggregates ,  Act Aggregates , and  Consciousness Aggregates  are all Dharma. Also  Sac France  , it is body  physiology  are the same all  the sense  of  material  that 5 begins  to recognize  it. Complete  meticulousness cultivation  of  us  must  care themselves  on  cognitive  correctness  of  List Sac . Thus   new wisdom develops and  defilements  are repelled.

The word  Tu Tap  (bhàvanà) here means to promote and grow. Practitioners  promote, raise what? It is to foster the  Precepts , to  study  and   to study wisdom in order to be  dignified , to purify the  Tam Karma of bad  deeds  (to do wrong, to say wrong, to think wrong) and to  cultivate  pure Tam Karma   (do right, rightly speaking, right thinking) on ​​the  basis of  wisdom, ie  Right Understanding  from  the  sublime level  ( meditation  , victory) to  saints  ( results ) through  the Path of  Contemplation .

Samatha  is the  way  developers  to learn  by focusing  thoughts  on the  topics  chosen,  salvage  highest levels  of meditation evidence  from  meditation  to  Phi Phi Chiang Chiang  and the ability to  Kabbalah and  reborn  Pham Thien Gioi . Vipassana  is  the way  to develop  Knowledge of Wisdom  by practicing the  Four Foundations of  Mindfulness . The end  of   this method is that the levels of  wisdom  from the First Path to  Arhat and  Vipassana meditation,  which is the  method of  Wisdom,  must be initiated  from the  knowledge that  perceives  Appearance  on the  basis of  teachings  (pariyatti) as a basis. A solid foundation   for  meticulousness  is really  needed is the  practice (patipatti) for targeting  purposes  salvage  the  realizations  (pativedha) and along the  journey  there,  the practitioner  always need three sources of  direct force  to support the  effort ,  mindfulness  and  wisdom . Section  of  vipassana  scene  List Sac  current  and as mentioned, the source  directing force  basic  essentials of  Zen Wisdom  Shop is  Right Mindfulness  and  awake  ( Wisdom). So,  basically ,  meditation is only  different from  Vipassana meditation   in at least two aspects: The perceived object and the  aiming purpose  . Meditation Only  knows the scene of Institution ( Heavenly Truth ) and  the  highest end is  meditation  and victory ( divine powers ). Meditation  knows the sight of  Danh Sac  ( Truth ) and  the  highest end is  the result of  Nirvana  .

The  Four Foundations of Mindfulness,  in short, is just  meticulously  noting  (mindfulness ) and  understanding  honest  ( intelligence ,  awareness ) for each movement  and falling  of the body, mind and  feeling  of them. If in  the practice  of meditation only ,  the practitioner  focuses  thought  to settling the mind  to dwell  on a  topic  that (always the scene Che Dinh  Resume ) with  the capacity  of  which is required , then in  practice  vipassana  practitioner  again using  Mindfulness  and  Awakened Wisdom  to perceive the four  Foundations of Mindfulness  (body, feeling, mind, dhamma),  ie , their body , mind, and  feelings . Whether  the meditator  only  dedicated  noted  quarterfinals majesty  (walking, standing, lying, sitting), ie under the Body  concept  Parish but even then  the practitioner  as  well have  practiced  in both  body and mind , that object  contemplation  still including all  Names . And besides  Mindfulness ,  Wisdom  now also has the presence of  Samadhi . It is this  combination  that makes up meaning  Middle Path  to  practice  insight  and the  Middle Way  that's  at once  what photography  complete  all three aspects Morality,  concentration and wisdom  of  the Noble Eightfold Path ,  the path  only  leads to  ultimate  Nirvana  (Ekayanamagga) .

To  learn  thoroughly about  Luc Apartment ,  Luc Landscape  and  driving force  is  necessary  to  elaborate  practice  insight , by which  practitioners  can  basic understanding of what  body, mind, nama, rupa are evolving in the present moment  , the perceived objects of   this dharma . Preventing  defilements  before the  bare landscape  is both an  elaborately  complex , difficult. Practitioners  must always be  alert  to all   of their Wills , even if it is the  Will  for themselves to  become more pure  , it should not be. The practitioner  must know  to distinguish  clearly  the difference between perception and  inference . The salty taste we imagine Absolutely  not like the salty taste on my tongue. That is like a  rumor  through  public opinion  can not be true  absolute  when compared to the  events  happening in  reality  is. That is the deep difference between perceptions and  inferences , a  very  important thing that  practitioners of  Tue Quan  need to  understand . Bringing such a detailed analysis, we will immediately see that in the only  method of  meditation ,  one  applies the correct  inference  (Sannà), while in the  method of  Wisdom yogi  just  simply  live feeling ( Mindfulness ,  Awareness ). Even if  the practitioner  is  practicing the  Body of Contemplation and the Body of  Contemplation  and the body is of course   more coarse than the mind, it is proper perception (with  mindfulness  and  wisdom ) that is also  the way  of  internal control  and  elimination of defilements.  extremely effective.

The so-called  life  of the  vast  majority of  sentient beings is  after all just  a combination between body and mind, ie Name and Form. It is extremely  difficult to fully understand what is body, what is mind  because  there is always a relationship between  body and mind , so   closely related that two things are just one. When our mind gets  angry  , the  breathing  will become more intense, our appearance will be harder to see, and  certainly the  four elements  within us will be more or less disturbed at this time  . When the  external environment  is something  gentle and  gentle, then our  mind  and body are at that time  serene  and  peaceful  . Intrinsic  and surroundings  are always upon application  together  so, the  exterior  creates  fluctuations  in the  interior  and thus forming the  reaction  of physiological (patikiriya) from expertise in Abhidhamma called  Excellence Center  (Cittajarupa), one four types of  material  that  essentially  the core  remains the  Sichuan University  and the  Distinguished Medical  University Students. In short, when the mind knows whether the scene is satisfactory or unsatisfactory, the  Rupa Dharma  also follows that there are corresponding changes   and the rate  of birth and  death of the  Rupa. is always  17 times slower than  Tam Phap . Because of this relationship between the Mind and the object, so in the  method of  Wisdom,  the perception of each  behavior  of  living postures  ( posture ) is very important. Each time the posture changes  ,  each time  one  realizes  the latent suffering   of  Rupa  and it is suffering that is a bridge leading to  psychological fluctuations  . The practitioner  must see the relationship  List Sac  is a  clear  that they are correlated but not interbeing .Chinh  path of  contemplation  is true that new  journey  jaw support resources  directed force  is important to  Effort ,  Right Mindfulness , awake ...

The nature  or  can nature  of  inner  beings  always quest, aspired  foreign The scene  and from there arose  mistreatment thoughts  ,  discrimination  ( dissatisfaction , or  pleasure ) through the support of the three   names Aggregates ( roughly called three  psychological factors ) Tho, Thought and Practice. Main 3  factors that  has made  revival  of the  negativity implicit that  the term  Buddhism  called Mien potential  negativity  (Anusayakilesa). Cultivate  insight  is applied  mindfulness ,  awake  ( intellectual ) and  Effort  to  stop  the  negativity  right in every moment to feel the  existence  of  rupa  (mental and physical), can give five  afflictions  Trien Cai  (Nìvarana) by the  Five Forces  (Tin, Ton, Mindfulness, Concentration, Wisdom). The Five Forces parallel  to each other  to make the path of  the Three Schools  and the  Tam School  was the  Middle Way  that  the Buddha  was talking about  the old days  when just  a religion . At the same time , the  Middle Way  is the  path  only  leads to the purification of  the inner , making our mind becomes  immaculate  as  leaf  impermeable.

MISSIONAL CONTENTS OF THE  LEGAL  FRAMEWORK

Here are some   important issues that anyone who wants to  practice  liberation  must also learn  the basics :

1)  Understand clearly  what is  Name and Form , because  Name-Form  is  all  that needs to be  contemplated  during  the journey  of  wisdom.

2)  The practitioner  must always remember that scene  basis tri  (object  contemplation ) of  disciplines  Tue shop  just scenes  present , what is born and is killing, whether or Lust List.

3)  Apply at most the three fundamental sources of  spirituality   mentioned by  the Buddha  in the  Four  Foundations of Mindfulness . That is  Mindfulness  noting  the  present state  of  Form and Form  (as if knowing well that you are in a sitting posture),  Awareness,  or  Wisdom,  knows  the nature  of  Form and Form  (as if knowing well that it is  Rupa  sitting according to the mobilization of Danh Phap). In the  method of  Wisdom , the objects of  note  are  Name-Rupa  and  Right Mindfulness with  Wisdom  to make  that  note  . There isn't a  Person ,  Self  or  Entity,  to do that here. And the  third source  of power is the  Diligence  or Heat Need that  practitioners  need to have  continuously  to  maintain  the working capacity of  Mindfulness  and  Wisdom  to burn  defilements . These three sources  of power  are mentioned by  the Buddha  in the suttas on the  Four Foundations of Mindfulness  in three  terms Atàpì (Heat Need), Sampajàno ( Awakening ), Satimà ( Mindfulness ).

4) Smart thinking  (Yoniso manasikara), literally was found to match the  real generals , discriminative (sabhava) of  List Sac And probable  elaborately  This can only be  done  by using  mindfulness  and  wisdom . Mindfulness  helps  practitioners  know they  are in a sitting position, and  wisdom  shall help  practitioners  understand the  position he belongs  Sac France .When sacrifices day long sitting, pain, before changing other posture, the practitioner  must use  mindfulness  and  wisdom  to note  that the  rupa  is having  problems. While changing positions,  practitioners  must  continue to  know clearly that  Rupa Dharma  is being  adjusted  to relieve pain.

The cleverly thought so will help  practitioners  avoid the  illusion  of something  happy  illusion  in  List Form  that would have to understand that it just  moved ,  moved  in my life  everyday life of  the body and mind  in order to  flee  floating  distressed  by something  painful  khac.Ngay  righteous actions  the dry mix Find Fun was also a hard thing,  shallots  (sankharadukkha), for  ourselves  the  existence  of the  list Sac was a suffering already. In a word after all   , the  entire method of  Wisdom  ( Four Foundations of Mindfulness ) is only encapsulated in a  single problem,  which  is skillful thinking. Instead of each previous sense of  the practitioner  is just the environment  arising  of  defilements , now the other perceived objects turn into a nourishing element of  wisdom . Wisdom  as truth  will lumbering of  misperception  and since then the  afflictions  will  gradually  decline kiet.Cac  posture  (posture  of living ) will now not  obscure be the  essence  of  Name,  too. Say that means earlier every when  feeling  insecure , unstable, then  we  find every  way students  work to reconcile the  realities  unpleasant  sight  and it  therefore  had no opportunity to see clearly the suffering in  Danh Sac .

Here I would like to give the typical example that most of  us  here are still  moving , moving in our meditation posture   , but there are some people who have promptly  noted  the reason  why we have to do like this. so. Please say that it is suffering that forces  us to  do so. Once seated in the new position,  we  feel comfortable  and just  so that  forgot one important thing is the principle  of Cause and Effect  Relationship within  List Sac  itself . Actually,  there is nothing  at  all peaceful , just through the old suffering  is alleviated temporarily with a new suffering (new posture). After a while, that posture will become uncomfortable again and we will  continue to  seek another  move . The boundary  between the  wisdom  of the  Three Generals  and the  misconception  in the  Self  is only narrow, with skillful thinking with  wisdom  and  mindfulness  , we will see the  Three Generals  in  Name and Form  through every  change of  body and mind , but when not well thoughtful, the  delusions of  Thuong Lac Nga Tinh  will  immediately is born on this very planktonic body plate. Phàm phu  is like a child. We are  always  greedy , afraid of suffering. With just a little bit of  peace  ,  we can  easily forget everything. Roughly ,  we  always live  for peace  in joy  innocent  and  willing to  compromise the  very  condition  for  market education  illusory ego as the old soldier no strength to fight. The inner stronghold   was abandoned, the enemy army of  afflictions  entered Separation occupies and occupies all the smiles then fade away like streaks of the afternoon sun. Life  since then has been called the sea of ​​suffering. And all just arise from  misunderstanding , the  absence  of the ability to contemplate according to  the spirit of  Wisdom .

As previously stated,  the practice  of vipassana  is allowed to live  contemplation  in all  reality , whether it is well-  suffering or joy  happiness  of  body and mind , something is happening that you feel duoc.La a  practitioner  insight ,  we  do not love implicated in  feelings  of pleasure, but people for  feeling  pain  discomfort should also be  mindful  properly. Because   any sensation can lead to  afflictions . That means when  contemplating  "Rupa is unstable" inner  of the time we would not like us  in mind that "his legs are setting". Just a bit  of clinging ,  interior  we  immediately  have  problems . I think every single person here can test this out for myself.

And from the hour  of meditation is  official , the ability  awakening  of  us  must be prolonged, spread with each  living  large and small  in life  everyday. When brushing, wiping his face, bathing, washing,  eating , ...  Meditators  always  aware  he was doing anything and  all of  these  activities  have only one  meaning  only  as  solving  a certain suffering never mind.

I reiterate that the Smart Reflection content is  the core  of the  way  religious practice  liberation .A  practitioner  lacks this ability, though he lived  life  in  the monastery  next to the steps  meditation  distinguished  to some well not making  progress  .

5) Besides the ability Ingenious Reflection, practitioners  also need a  sophisticated  else, that is the Specialist Center  (sikkhati), ie the ability enduring Zen Living. Satipatthana  this time is no longer a  training method  practiced  anonymous or schedule another phase, which is  the whole  life  of  the practitioner . The  awareness  should be spread across all levels  of reality . Practitioners  do  not miss  a moment. Sitting,  the practitioner  knows clearly the  Dharma  is sitting. Being  awake  , The practitioner  knows well  the mind  is  awake . When sleepiness ensued,  the practitioner  knows that  Hindrances  and if not bedtime, the  practitioner should  wake up  and change positions or find water washing the face, also in the  wake  know braided  dedicated as So there is a   very important meaning in the  method of  Wisdom . It helps  the practitioner to  promptly  record everything that happens in the  present . And usually,  beginner practitioners  still thinking about long-term or Framework for the  activities  ( such as self-  prepared or  prescribed  postures, work that will last long and then start focusing  Mindful  track ), but forgot that the  process  of  Name and Form was  actually more  vivid , and much more rapid than they thought. Such a  practice  is the lack of  Attention . Meanwhile, an  awakening  properly must always tied tight with every  movement  , large and small  List Sac  current . Seriously  look sentient beings  pass away  and then  serenely  note  without any  participation or arrangement. Only then can we see their aspects of  Impermanence , Suffering and  Selflessness  , and when we live like this we will not have ample time  for  redundant  actions , words ,   or appearances of  Name  without  Righteousness. anniversary  woke  comes.

6) Keeping   the audience honest and honest as a singer is also an   important and  necessary skill . While  contemplating List Sac ,  practitioners  do not expect, hope,  seeking  the  comfort of  a  try  , such a change in posture. Before beginning  an organism  functioning  normally  the most, such as face washing, brushing teeth, bathing,  eating  ...  Practitioners  must  consciously clear  that he is  Solved Suffering  and  misery    Here it may be heat, hunger ,   or some discomfort.

Once we live without  conscious  then ever urgent demands of this body will set off bouts of  frustration , even anger and being  resolved  satisfaction with the  response  time, the  desire to appear  and before After  the practitioner  cannot  know how he  is doing. Meanwhile, if living  mindfully ,  the practitioner  will see clearly every kind of mood that goes through his heart: Knowing the annoying anger is the  Mind anger , the delightful satisfaction   is the  Craving , the  forgetfulness  is the  Liberation , and any of those things are  impermanence , suffering and  selflessness . Said this also means that a  practitioner insight  rhythm keep  the students  active  unhurried , slow,  relaxed  a bit to the surface facilities  to dwell Mindfulness  and clearly see the  suffering  in  List Sac  and the  settlement  of And what you do,  practitioners  should also keep in mind this  mindfulness  :  I  cultivate the mind  , not cultivate the body! END=NAM MO AMITABHA BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN PRAYED AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.13/10/2020.
