Joy in suffering.
One day, the Buddha and his disciple entered the sermon in Luat Ky city. When they left, they met a young man who was driving a herd of cows and just ate, they jumped into a collision. Seeing this, the Buddha said the following chants:cows
“The shepherd brings the whips of the blankets, the cows; Just like that, the old man died, breeding and dragging his life away that anyone knows!
In the past, hundreds of thousands of people, not one, contained many riches, nourished the body much, but then no one could survive death.
Life means that day and night life is attacked, gradually stripped, so life is destroyed like a shore of water eroded.
When returning to the monastery, Venerable A Nan Bach Buddha:
- Bach The Ton! Just now on the way back to the Buddha, we said three chants, but we do not fully understand the meaning, please teach compassionate World Religion.
- Nan! On the way home just now, did you see people manipulating cows?
- Bach has.
- That person is a butcher. His cows have up to three thousand heads, every day they are dragged out into the city to find good grass to feed, and choose those big and fat to be sold. More than half killed, but none of the cows know their fate. They are still happily, kicking each other, leaping, roaring, playing ... I love them so I just said some chants just now.
But this Aban! It's not just the cowherd and the cowherd that are like that, there are many people who bury themselves in similar circumstances. They are attached to "the Self", not knowing the ego is just a continuous transformation, so they greedy and desire to nourish the body, then delightedly they murdered each other, killing each other's lives. without knowing that we are fighting with death! Meanwhile, besides life, the deadly impermanence approaches quickly, yet they remain blatantly ignorant or unaware, are they any different from the cows?
Buddha taught like that, among the listeners, there were those who in the past, oversupply, immediately awakened and tried to encourage themselves to live the truth. As a result, they soon became evident.END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.21/3/2021.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.
