The question of truth in Buddhism we have seen that Buddhism advocates a wide, insightful, and ultimate Knowing (Supreme Righteousness Variation of Perception). This Knowing is based on spiritual experiments, on the enlightened liberation of a Buddha who has transcended ignorance and samsara. That Knowing is the knowledge of the truth of all beings, the Knowing about the true face of all phenomena (the item aspect). That truth, that real face, is called true, is essence, is Buddha; in short, is the truth. How is truth in Buddhism conceived? Buddhism advocates that human knowledge can reach truth, on condition that one must convert current knowledge into Prajna wisdom. The knowledge of beings has a weak ability because it has been obscured by so many delusion (ignorance). Now that these delusions are eliminated, Consciousness (knowledge) can be converted into Wisdom (Prajna) and with this ability, man can directly perceive the Being. Intellectuals distinguish three types of knowledge that human knowledge can have: 4.1 Knowledge by quantitative quantity means differentiation, comparison, understanding. The present quantity is the direct knowledge of things in the present time and the present space. This understanding does not need to go through an inference mediator. I see a dictionary in front of me. That "seeing" is the quality, the ability to directly perceive without thinking. Can be considered temporarily as an intuition. But there are cases where the phenomenon is true and there are cases where things go wrong. Seeing the rope, for it to be a rope, it is the "quality of the feet" (the right amount). Seeing the rope, panicking to say it is a snake, it is "the current amount" (the wrong amount). Debt means similar to true, but in fact is false. 4.2 The understanding in billions of quantities This means comparing, inferring, comparing. If we ask "will there be rain tomorrow afternoon" then our quantity cannot answer because it can only know the present and the present. Tomorrow afternoon means something happening at another time, so it must be thanks to another deductive ability: that possibility is billions. Just as when I ask: "Is there anything in the heart of the earth", my quality cannot be answered, because the work here is not a present, unrecognizable without a deductive effect. . So it is necessary to use billions of quantities. What's behind that wall that smoke? Billions answered that there was fire. Because it deduces "smoke means fire". If there is a real fire behind the wall, it is called "the true amount of truth", And if there is another object behind the wall that is not fire but can also cause the smoke (such as a motor car), it is called "ta billion tael" (wrong amount). The present quantity, although only aware of the present and present things, is still being mistaken. The ratio of having to think about achieving things at different times and in other localities is more prone to mistakes. Consequently, attentive reflection of the billions often leads us terribly away from the truth. The great questions of life, of essence, which could not be solved through quality, must of course be due to billions. But the billions often lead us to far-flung metaphysical boundaries and often go unpredictable. Ngoc Hoang, God, Nam Cao, Bac Dau, Apple Quan, Pham Thien, etc. are all products of billions of quantities. In the experimental scope, Billions also proved to be very wrong at times, let alone beyond the experiment. The free and daring wings of billions of quantities take us around, but when we return, only unbelievable theories are brought back. So billions of quantities are in many cases already trillions, and people cannot depend on them to find the truth. Then why can the knowledge of sentient beings not find the truth? The main reason is in the quantity and quantity. But why is the knowledge of sentient beings not merely the truth of the amount of truth and amount of truth and amount that has interfered with the amount of truth and amount of volume? Buddhism advocates: because there is an element of delusion, ignorance has caused things that "fear". The other delusion is called ignorance (avidya). The enlightened ones are those who have eliminated ignorance, eliminated physical qualities and quantum qualities, develop to the extreme feet of quality and feet of billions of quantities. The latter two possibilities, after ignorance have been eliminated, can reach its highest state of insight, Prajna, in order to be able to directly receive eternal truth. The enlightened ones, after attaining the truth, immediately think about the explanation for those who have not attained. But absolute truth cannot use an inferior and mediocre instrument, which is language, to be able to interpret or interpret. So even if the enlightened ones do, they can also explain the influence of truth and the method of obtaining truth, but cannot explain the truth itself. The image of truth is only a means to show truth, not truth. Beings must rely on that image to gradually find the truth by study, by practice. Although it is not the truth itself, but the other image also transcends the erroneous geodetic imagery, the insane delusions of the truth of the billions. Therefore, truth is not in the scriptures, and the scriptures are only means of showing truth. So the Buddha taught: "Truth is the moon. My teaching is a finger pointing to the moon. Don't mistake my finger for the moon ”. If y according to the scriptures to explain, to find the truth in the lines, it is only knowing how to look at the fingers but not yet able to see the moon. But leaving the scriptures completely, you can fall into the crazy delusions of billions of taels. So one of the monks said: "Medical interpretation, the Buddha's three positions injustice; Glass of economic experience, ie co-ma theory ", means:" Hold tightly in the text that explains, then injustice for the Buddha, but leave the scriptures, then get lost in the heresy of Maou ". So in addition to the two kinds of knowledge, the quantity and the amount of knowledge, we also have a third kind of knowledge, which is holy quality. 4.3 Quantitative Understanding This understanding is due to the basis of the teachings of the enlightened ones. Those are the "fingers pointing to the moon" through which the mortal has the means to become an enlightened saint. But for these saints, we also have to keep a cautious attitude to study. Because we have not understood directly, we do not know in an "experimental" way that truth is really a truth, or if it is just a bunch of quantities like so many other things. Here, there must be faith. But this faith also has to be built up steadily by observations and preliminary experiences. For example, while people are persistent in things is ordinary, there is ego, but listening to the Buddha teaches a truth that includes the policy of impermanence without self, one must check whether it is true that all things are impermanent without self. If it is, then it may be one of the basics for the Faith. Let us take one more example from the following fake story: In another area, people had a contagious disease. A doctor came to study the disease and cure many people. The disease gradually lessened in that area. A countryside doctor visits the doctor. The doctor, an excellent microbiologist, told our hometown uncle that there were creatures so small that the naked eye (l'oeil nu) could not be seen; These creatures damage the human body and cause many dangerous infectious diseases such as tuberculosis, plague, smallpox… Unbelievable, the countryside uncle shook his head. Can't believe it when I've never heard anyone say such a bizarre "truth". If you believe it right away, it is superstition, even if it is true. Without believing, there is no way to see the truth - to see germs. In fact, the doctor is a real scientist, that fact (germs cause illness) he sees very clearly, but does not know how to make the countryman believe! Then he explained temporarily (means) that those "germs" were like a hook, or a spread. But that "truth" of the scientist said, for the countryside uncle is "metaphysical" too, too hard to believe. What is the worm that looks like a hook, like a spread? What insect that cannot see? Unseen but know as a spread, like a hook? Previously, the countryside uncle thought that the disease was caused by the devil, the killing. "Devil, yelling" is crazy delusion, is the product of billions of taels. Now, "hook bacteria" is holy quality. Can the country uncle believe this "hook bacteria" truth (?), At first doubt. But after re-examination, I found that there were some truths that I could believe: Before the doctor arrived, many exorcisms had been offered to exorcise, why did the illness not decrease? Why did the doctor give an injection to someone? Doctors study better, wiser than me, who can deny that? If you do not know clearly, if you are in a vague guess, how can the truth "hook bacteria" be the foundation for a good medicine? Moreover, hearing the explanation about germs and microscopes, the countryside uncle has seen it very well. So the countryman believes. But not enough news. Must "see" to be able to hear. Because if you believe, then just imagine "it" only. But how to imagine? The country uncle decided to see through a microscope. And after "suffering from suffering and suffering" many times, we can see the "microbial truths". Now is a direct realization. And the other lens is Bat Nha Tri, it is "the first to turn perception". The country doctor is not satisfied with the doctor's description, wanting to be able to "see germs" directly. I know that even though my imagination is not as wrong as I thought it was when I thought the devil was screaming, it was still not true. Then the Buddhist student is also not satisfied with the fingers pointing to the moon, the shadows of truth, even though that figure has far surpassed the expectation of the billions. Buddha learners need to have enough intellectual capacity to learn to understand, to realize the true points of the holy mandala, to believe and embark on a great experiment for generations.END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA.SYDNEY.23/2/2021.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.
