SUCCESSFUL SUBJECTS. I heard like this. At one time, the Buddha was on Mount Kysarak at La-guest-kid with a large group of monks of one thousand two hundred and fifty people. At that time there was a music god called Banjiajie, while the night was quiet and empty, he released his light to illuminate Mount Kysara, went to the Buddha's place, bowed to the Buddha's feet with his head and face, and stood aside. The Blessed One said, "Last night Brahma went to the Dao-Loi heaven to discuss with Emperor Shakyamuni. I heard it myself there, can I now report it to the Blessed One?" Buddha replied, "If you want to speak, say it." Ban-jerk said: "Once, the Heavenly Dao-benefits gathered in the Dharma hall to discuss. At that time, the four heavenly kings sat on the four sides in their direction. De-di-tra-king Heavenly King sat in the east, facing west. Emperor Thich sat in front of him. Bhikkhu-Lac Thien Vuong sat in the South, facing the North; Emperor Thich sat in front of him. Bhikkhu-long-baked heavenly King sitting in the West, face facing East; Emperor Thich sat in front of him. Bhikkhu-samon Heavenly King sat in the North, facing the South; Emperor Thich sat in front of him. After the heavenly kings sat down, I sat down. There were also other Great Angels, all of whom had followed the Buddha and practiced the holy life. When they died here, they were reborn in the Dao Loi heaven, causing the gods there to gain five more blessings: heavenly longevity, heavenly beauty, heavenly name, heavenly music, and divine majesty. At that time the Devas were delighted and excited, saying, "May the Asuras increase, the Asuras decrease." “At that time, when Thich Dehuan Ren knew that the gods were happy, he recited a chant for the sake of the gods, saying: 'We all the gods of benefit, Together with the king of delights, respectfully pay homage to the Tathagata, who Supreme Dharma King. The gods receive blessings, life, form, fame, music, and prestige. According to the Buddha's holy life, he should be born here. There are gods again, the light is brilliant. Disciples of the Buddha's wisdom, Born here, more and more outstanding. Knife-benefit and Human-Destiny, Think so happy. Pay homage to the Tathagata, the supreme Dharma King. After hearing that verse, the Devas became even more overjoyed: "May the group of gods increase, the Asuras decrease." Shakyamuni Thich Dehuan saw that the Devas were overjoyed, and said to them, "Do you want to hear the Eight Unequal Laws about the Tathagata?" The gods replied, "We want to hear." Emperor Shakyamuni said: “Listen, think wisely. Dear friends, the Tathagata, Chi Zhen, Perfectly Enlightened, are full of ten titles. I don't see anyone in the past, in the future, or in the present who has all the ten virtues of Tathagata, Chi Chan, and Perfect Enlightenment like Buddha. "The wonderful Dharma of the Buddha, to be skillfully preached, to be practiced by the wise. I do not see anyone in the past, in the future, or in the present who has such wonderful teachings as the Buddha. “Buddha is self-enlightened by that dharma, has no hindrance, and abides in peace. I don't see anyone in the past, in the future, or in the present who can live in that dharma and realize self-enlightenment, communicate without hindrance, and be at peace like the Buddha. “Chu Hien! The Buddha was self-enlightened by that dharma, and was able to reveal the path leading to Nirvana, to be close, and to gradually enter the place of cessation. For example, the water of the Ganges and the waters of the Diemma, both rivers flow into the sea. So is Buddha. It is possible to reveal the path leading to Nirvana, to be close, to gradually enter into the place of cessation. I don't see anyone in the past, in the future, or in the present who can reveal the path to Nirvana like Buddha. “Chu Hien! The Tathagata accomplishes his relatives, including those with wisdom, Slaughter, Brahmin, Layman, recluse. I don't see anyone in the past, future, or present who has relatives like Buddha. “Chu Hien! The Tathagata has achieved great success. They are the Bhikkhu-stilts, the Bhikkhu-stilts, the Upasakas, the Upasikas. I have not seen anyone in the past, in the future, or in the present who has achieved such a great accomplishment as the Buddha. “Chu Hien! The Tathagata's speech and actions are compatible. Speak as you do, do as you say, accomplish the dharma and follow the dharma. I do not see anyone in the past, in the future, in the present, whose speech, actions, and dharmas are as accomplished as the Buddha. “Chu Hien! Tathagata for everyone's benefit, for everyone's peace; With compassion, he benefits the gods and mankind. I don't see anyone in the past, in the future, or in the present for everyone's sake, for everyone's welfare, like Buddha. "Venerables, these are the eight unequaled dharmas about the Tathagata." At that time, a wise man said: "Suppose eight Buddhas were born in the world at once, Time will increase the number of gods and reduce the number of Asuras." Another god said: "Not to mention eight Buddhas, even if there are seven Buddhas, six Buddhas, or two Buddhas are born, it will increase the number of gods and reduce the number of Asuras." Thich De Hoan Nhan immediately said to the Dao Loi heaven: "I have heard from the Buddha and received the teachings directly from the Buddha, so it is never possible for two Buddhas to be born at once. But if a Tathagata lives a long life, out of love for all people, for the benefit of many, for the welfare of gods and humans, then it is also possible to increase the number of gods and reduce them A-- so-la.” Then Banjiajie said to the Buddha: "World-Honored One, the reason why the heavenly beings gather in the Dharma hall is to discuss, think, negotiate, and examine the commandments given. Then give it to the Four Heavenly Kings. The Four Heavenly Kings, after receiving the throne, Each person sat in his or her own seat. Before long, there was a strange great light illuminating the four directions. When the Heavenly Dao Loi saw that light, they were all terrified: Now, this strange light, is something strange about to happen? The great angels who have great virtue are also afraid: Now, this strange light, is about to tell me something strange? “At that time, the Great Brahma immediately transformed into a pupil with a five-pointed head, standing in the middle of nowhere, above the crowd, with a beautiful face that surpassed the crowd, a body of purple-gold color, blocking the light of the gods. The Heavenly Dao-Loi did not stand up to greet them, nor revere them, nor invite them to sit down. When the pupil Pham sat in the seat of any deity, he was very happy. For example, King Empowerment belongs to the Sa-li lineage, when the coronation ceremony was performed, then the king was very happy and excited. Not long after sitting, Dai Pham transformed himself into the image of a pupil with a five-pointed head, sitting in the middle of nowhere. above the assembly, like an athlete sitting on a firm seat, motionless and reciting the chant: We all the gods of benefit, Together with the King of Satisfaction, Pay homage to the Tathagata, the supreme Dharma King. The gods receive blessings: life, form, fame, music, and prestige. According to the Buddha's holy life, he should be born here. There are gods again, the light is brilliant. Disciples of the Buddha's wisdom, Born here, more and more outstanding. Knife-benefit and Human-Destiny, Think so happy. Pay homage to the Tathagata, the supreme Dharma King. “Then, the gods of benefit said to the medium: We have heard Deva Thich praise the Eight incomparable dharmas about the Tathagata, and they were all overjoyed and overjoyed. The pupil Brahma said to the gods: What are the eight incomparable dharmas about the Tathagata? We also want to hear. Thien Di Thich then told the pupil the Eight Unequal Laws about the Tathagata. The Gods of Wisdom heard again, Unspeakable joy and excitement: May the gods increase, the Asuras decrease. “At that time, the medium saw that the gods were happy and excited, and said to the Devas, 'Do you want to hear the Unsurpassed Dharma? Dao-loi Thien replied: Very good, we want to hear. The pupil said: Listen, I will tell." O Gods of benefits! The Tathagata of the past, when he was still a bodhisattva, wherever he was born, everyone was intelligent and well-versed. Dear friends, in the distant past, there was a king named Landlord, and he had a prince named Tu Bi. The king's great minister was named Dien Ton and his son was named Diem Man. Prince Compassionate has a friend and this friend often associates with six other great Sacrificial deities. When the Great King of Landlords wanted to go to the royal palace to travel, he would entrust the country's affairs to the great god Dien Ton. After that, they entered the palace to sing and enjoy the five senses. When the great minister Dien Ton wanted to handle the country, he asked his son about it first, and then decided. Or whatever you decide to do, listen to me. Then suddenly the great god Dien Ton passed away. When the Landlord King heard the news, he was deeply saddened, beat his chest and lamented, "Damn it! Why unhappy! The nation lost people wages turned on. Prince Compassionate thought to himself: Because of the loss of Dien Ton, the king was born in sorrow and pain. Let's go to the king, don't be sad because of that mourning. Why? Because the great god Dien Ton now has a son named Diem Man who is more intelligent than his father. Now the king can summon to handle the national affairs. Then, Prince Bi immediately went to the king to express his opinion. The king obeyed and summoned Diem Man to say, "Now I add you to the position of your father, and give you the seal. After Diem Man received the seal, when the king wanted to enter the inner palace, he gave the country to Diem Man. Diem Man already knew the treatment well. Not only did Diem Man know well what he did in the past, but also what he could not do before, Diem Man also knew well. Later, the name Diem Man spread throughout the country, so people called him Dai Dien Ton. Dai Dien Ton thought: Now the King of Land, old and weak, will not live long. If the crown prince succeeds now, it will not be difficult. Perhaps I should go and say to the six great Shadi gods: Now, the king of the land, old and weak, will not live long. If the crown prince succeeds now, it will not be difficult. But you should also set aside the kingdom. The day in the throne also do not forget each other. Then Dai Dien Ton went to the other six great Sasli gods, saying: Hey, you should know, now that the King of Landlords is old and weak, he doesn't have long to live. You should come and tell the prince this: We and you, have known each other since childhood. You suffer, we suffer, he is happy we are happy, now the king is old and weak, not long to live, so it is not difficult for the prince to succeed the king. Assuming you take the throne, please give us the land. Then the six great gods of Shalit immediately came to show the prince. The crown prince replied: Suppose I ascended the throne, divided the land of the kingdom, who else would I give it to? Before long, the king died. The great minister in the country came to pay homage to the crown prince, to ascend to the throne. After ascending the throne, the new king thought to himself: Now that he has established the position of Prime Minister, he should follow the Tien Vuong. But who is worthy of that nomination? It must be Dai Dien Ton. King Compassion immediately summoned Dai Dien Ton to say: Now I appoint you to the position of Prime Minister and give the seal. You should be diligent to the general secretary of state. Dai Dien Ton obeyed orders and received seals. Whenever the king retired to the palace, many national affairs were entrusted to Dai Dien Ton. Dai Dien Ton thought: We should now go to the six slayings and ask them if they remember what they said before. Then he went and said to the six great Shalitans: Do you remember what you said before? Now the crown prince has ascended the throne, staying in the inner palace, enjoying the five senses. They should now come and ask the king: The king is in the heavens, enjoying the five senses, so do you still remember the previous words? After hearing this, the six Shalits went to the king and said: "The king is in the heavenly throne, enjoying the five sensual pleasures, do you still remember what he said before? That: Cut the fiefdom, who is worthy to be there? King replied: Don't forget! In the past, we have said, divide the land in the hamlet, who can not the khans. Then the king thought to himself: This land of Jambudvipa is wide and narrow. Who is able to divide it into seven parts? Then he thought: It must be Dai Dien Ton to be able to do this. The king immediately summoned Dai Dien Ton to say: You shall divide this land of Jambudvipa into seven parts. When ordered, Dai Dien Ton immediately divided into seven parts. Cities, hamlets, and counties ruled by the king are all part of it. The six kingdoms of the great slaying kings are divided into each division. The king was pleased and said: My wish has been fulfilled. The six great slaying gods were also happy that their wishes had been fulfilled. This work was made possible thanks to Dai Dien Ton. The six kings of the Shalit dynasty thought to themselves: Our country has just been established, and it needs an assistant general. But know who can afford it? If there is someone like Dai Dien Ton, I will act as consul of the country. The six kings of Shadli all invited Dai Dien Ton to come and say: Our country needs an assistant general. Khanh please for my consul, consul. All six countries gave their seals to Dai Dien Ton. After Dai Dien Ton received the seal, the six kings retreated to the harem to enjoy sensual pleasures. Dai Dien Ton was assigned the national affairs and handled the affairs of all seven countries; all are successful. At the same time, there are seven great lay people in the country, Dai Dien Ton also handles household chores for them. He was able to teach the seven Brahmans to read and recite sutras. The seven kings respected him as a god. The seven great lay followers regarded him as the Great King. The other seven Brahmas regard him as Brahma. They all thought to themselves: Prime Minister Dai Dien Ton often met with Brahma, talked with him in a friendly manner. Dai Dien Ton secretly knew the idea of seven kings, laypeople and Brahma, that: I often meet Brahma, talk and walk in a friendly manner with Brahma. But we really have never seen Brahma, never talked to Brahma. We cannot keep silent to receive that praise. I have also heard the occultists say: Whoever spends the four summer months in a quiet place practicing the Four Immeasurable Minds of the Brahma Heaven will come down to meet him. Now should we cultivate the Four Immeasurable Minds to be met by Brahma? Then, Dai Dien Ton came to the seven kings and said: Dear Great King, hope that Great King will take care of the country. I want to practice the Four Immeasurable Minds for four months in the summer. Seven kings said: Khanh himself knows the time. Dai Dien Ton again came and said to the seven lay people: You should take care of your own business. I want in the four months of summer to cultivate the Four Immeasurable Minds. The lay people replied: Yes. He knows the time himself. Again to the seven hundred Brahmas: Please read and recite diligently and instruct each other. I want in the four months of summer to cultivate the Four Immeasurable Minds. The Pham replied: Yes. Master knows his own time. Then Dai Dien Ton in the east of that city built a hermitage, in the four months of summer, stayed there and practiced the Four Immeasurable Minds. But Brahma still did not appear. Dai Dien Ton thought to himself: I have heard the veterans say, cultivating the Four Immeasurable Minds for four months in the summer, Brahma will appear, but now why quietly do not see any traces. On the full moon day, Dai Dien Ton came out of the quiet room, went to an empty place, sat down, not long after suddenly a strange light appeared. Dai Dien Ton thought to himself: Is this strange light a sign of Brahma appearing? At that time, Brahma transformed into a pupil with five tips, sitting in the air, above Dai Dien Ton. After seeing it, Dai Dien Ton recited the chant: What celestial image is this, In the middle of nowhere, Bright in all four directions, Like a pile of burning wood? The pupil Pham replied with a verse: Only the gods of the Brahma realm know me Pham the pupil. Others told me to worship by the god of Fire. Dai Dien Ton replied in verse: Now I will ask; Yes teachYes teach, very respectful. Clean up the top things, May God know my heart. Pham pupil again said in verse: Now make this offering, Dien Ton, what do you practice? What do you want, what do you want? I will give it to you. Tell Dien Ton again: You can ask whatever you want. I will tell. Dai Dien Ton thought: Should I ask about the present? Or the future? Then think to yourself: What is the need for this life now? Let's ask what you have not shown. Immediately towards Pham Dong Tu said the verse: I would like to ask Pham Dong, Thanks for resolving doubts; What do you study and abide in, Being born in Brahma? Pham pupil replied: Stop thinking about me, people; Solitude, Tu from the heart; Except sex, not unclean, Born in Brahma. Dai Dien Ton finished listening to the verse, immediately thinking: Pham Dong pupil theory verse should eliminate uncleanness. I don't understand this. So you need to ask more. Then said the shelf: Pham shelf spoke unclean, Please clarify me or, Who opened the door of the world, Evil, not born in heaven? The pupil Pham replied with a verse: Lies and envy, Conceit, rising conceit Greed, ill-will, ignorance Infatuation filled with mind, Is the world unclean; I tell you clearly. It opens the door to the world; Evil, not born in heaven. After listening, Dai Dien Ton thought to himself: According to Dong Tu's words, now I understand the meaning of the word unclean. But at home, it can't be stopped. Would it be better for us to leave the world, go forth, shave off hair and beard, put on Dharma clothes, and cultivate the Way? At that time, Pham's pupils knew his thoughts, so he said the verse: If you are brave, that Chi is wonderful; Is the act of wisdom level; Death all birth Brahma. Then Pham's pupils suddenly disappeared. At that time, Dai Dien Ton returned, went to the seven kings, said: Dear Great King, I hope you bring your divine power to handle the country. Now I have the intention of leaving home, giving up my life, wearing the Dharma clothes and practicing the Way. Why? I personally heard from Brahma talking about uncleanness that my heart hates. If it's at home, it can't be ruled out. The seven kings thought to themselves: The Brahmins are often greedy for wealth, perhaps we should expand the treasure for him to use as he likes, so as not to leave home. Then called Dai Dien Ton to say: Whatever you want to use, I will give it all, no need to leave home. Dai Dien Ton replied: I have been blessed by the king. I also have many talents. Now, please leave everything to the King. Please allow me to fulfill my wish to leave home. The seven kings thought to themselves: The Brahmins are often greedy for beauty, perhaps we should bring the female body in to please, so as not to leave home. Then said to Dai Dien Ton: If necessary, I will give you all. No need to leave home anymore. Dai Dien Ton replied: Now I have been blessed by the king. But in my house, there are many women in my house so I can go home. I just wanted to leave love and go forth to practice the Way because I personally heard Pham Dong dong say dirty things, but my heart was disgusted. If it's at home, it can't be excluded. Then Dai Dien Ton said a verse to the King of Compassion: Listen to me, King, you are a human being, a person who gives you wealth, a woman's body. King Compassion replied with a verse: Thanh Dan-den, Gia-lang. City A-she, Bo-Hoa. The city of A-table, the great-heaven. Old Citadel, Champa. Number-di, Sat-la into Tay-da, Lo-lou into Ba-la, Ga-thi. All were built by Dien Ton. How many five desires I will give you; Let's look after the country. Don't give up and leave home. Dien Ton replied with a verse: Five desires, I do not lack. Just not worldly. After hearing from heaven, I no longer wanted to stay at home. The Compassionate King responded with a verse: The words of Dai Dien Ton said, From which heaven did he hear, But giving up the five desires? Now ask, hope to answer. Dai Dien Ton said verse: In the past, I was in a deserted place, alone, thinking for myself. Then Brahma came, Radiating a brilliant light. I heard from Him; No more worldly desires. The King of Compassion said the verse: Wait, Dai Dien Ton! To spread the good Dharma together; And then finally left home. Khanh is my teacher. For example in space, Pure, full of glass; Now we have pure faith, pervasive in the Buddhadharma. Then Dai Dien Ton recited again: Gods and people, All should discharge the five desires; Wash away the defilements, But practice the holy life. Then the seven kings said to Dai Dien Ton: You should postpone seven years to enjoy the five senses together. Then we left the country together, handed it over to our children, and left home together. Isn't it better? What you own, we share. Dai Dien Ton replied: "The world is impermanent, human life is quick, it is difficult to preserve in just one breath. Isn't a delay of seven years too long?" The seven kings said: "Seven years is as long as six, five... or a year is fine. We stay in the palace to enjoy the five wonderful desires together. Then we left the country together, handed it over to our children, and left home together. Isn't it better? What you own, we share. Dai Dien Ton still replied: "The world is impermanent, human life is quick, it is difficult to preserve in just one breath. So oil for a year is still long; not even seven months, or a month." The seven kings continued: "Stop postponing for seven days." Dai Dien Ton replied: "Seven days is not long, it can be postponed. Please do not be wrong, Your Majesty. If the king does not leave home after seven days, I will leave home alone." Then Dai Dien Ton again came to seven lay people, told them: Each one should take care of his own business. I want to leave home and practice the unconditioned religion. Why? I personally heard from Brahma, talking about uncleanness that my heart hates. If you stay at home, you can't get rid of it." Seven lay followers answered Dai Dien Ton: "Good, that intention. Do what is appropriate. We also want to leave home together. What you own, we should also share." Dai Dien Ton again came and said to the seven hundred Brahmas: You should be diligent in chanting, seek to expand the way, and then teach each other. I want to leave home to practice the unconditioned religion. Why? I personally heard from Brahma talking about uncleanness, but my heart hated it. If you stay at home, you can't get rid of it." Then seven hundred Brahma said to Dai Dien Ton: -Master, do not leave home. Living at home is peaceful, enjoying the five desires, having many servants, and having no pain and suffering in the mind. The monastic lives alone in a deserted place; I don't have what I want, I don't want to get anything." Dai Dien Ton replied: "If I consider staying at home to be happy and leaving home to be suffering, I wouldn't have left home. But I have said that staying at home is suffering, It's fun to leave home, so we leave home." The Brahmas said: "The great master left home, we also left home. Whatever the Master does, we follow." Dai Dien Ton again came and said to the wives: "Now you are free. Whoever wants to stay, stay. Whoever wants to come back, come back. Now I want to go forth from the home life to seek the path of non-action." Then they told all the above facts and clearly stated their intention to leave home. The ladies replied, "If Dai Dien Ton was still at home, he would be both a husband and a father like our father. Now, if we become ordained, we will ask to follow. Whatever Dai Dien Ton does, we will do.” After seven days, Dai Dien Ton shaved off his hair and beard, wore three medical robes, and left home. At the same time, seven kings, seven lay people, seven hundred Brahmans, and forty wives, one by one, also ordained. the masses roaming the countries, spreading the word, benefit many people. At that time, King Brahma said to the heavenly assembly: "Don't think that the great god Dien Ton was at that time. It is the predecessor of the current Shakyamuni Buddha. At that time the Blessed One, after seven days, left home to practice the Way, lead large groups of people to travel across the world, and spread the word widely, benefiting many people. If you have doubts about what I say, you should go to the Blessed One, who is currently residing at Mount Kysarak, and ask. As the Buddha said, try to remember it." The music god Banjia-jing said to the Buddha: "World-Honored One! For that reason, I came here today. White World-Honored One, that Great Dian Ton is that World-Honored One, isn't it? After seven days, the World-Honored One left home to practice the Way; together with seven kings, up to eighty-four thousand people at the same time ordained, traveling with them to different countries, teaching widely, benefiting many people, right?" The Buddha replied to Banjiajie: “Who was Dai Dien Ton at that time? Don't think so. That is My Body. At that time, every time girls and boys across the country walked, moved, had something dangerous, they immediately chanted: Namo Dai Dien Ton, the prime minister of the seven kings. Namo Dai Dien Ton, the prime minister of the seven kings. Recite up to three times like that. “Hey, Banjic! Dai Dien Ton at that time had great majesty and virtue, but he could not teach the ultimate path for his disciples, could not make disciples achieve a holy life, and could not lead to a peaceful end. The Dharma of Dai Dien Ton says that if any disciple practices, when the body breaks down, after death, he will only be reborn in the Brahma world. Those who practice more shallowly will be reborn in the heaven of self-alienation. The second is free-born, Tu-sat-da, Diem-ma, Dao-loi, Four heavenly kings, or Slaughter, Brahmin, or layperson at home. Whatever you want is fine. “Hey, Banjic! Dai Dien Ton's disciples are all monastics, not stupid. There are retributions, there are precepts, but it is not the ultimate path, it does not make the disciple realize the end of the holy life, does not lead the disciple to complete peace. The highest point of the other way is only to the Brahma world. And now my teaching to my disciples can make them quickly attain the ultimate path, attain the holy goal, reach the end of peace, and finally enter Nirvana. My Dharma says, if a disciple practices, he should give up the taint of becoming and become free of the taint. In this life, he will realize for himself the liberated mind, liberated wisdom, samsara and death, the holy life has been established. done done, no more rebirth. Those who practice more shallowly will get rid of the five fetters of the lower world and can enter Nirvana in the heavenly world, but not return to this realm. Second, the third paragraph of fetters, lust, anger, thin delusion, It only takes one more birth in this realm to enter Nirvana. And secondly, if you can cut off three fetters, attain Tu-da-complete status, no longer fall into the evil paths, at most seven births to this realm will surely attain Nirvana. “Hey, Ban-jerk! My disciples who left home are not stupid, have retribution, have precepts, have the end of the Dharma, the end of the holy life, the end of peace, and finally enter Nirvana.” Ban-jing-jing listened to the Buddha's teaching, joyfully served. the end of the holy life, the end of peace, and finally the attainment of Nirvana.” Ban-jing-jing listened to the Buddha's teaching, joyfully served. the end of the holy life, the end of peace, and finally the attainment of Nirvana.” Ban-jing-jing listened to the Buddha's teaching, happily served.END= NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN ZEN BUDDHIST MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.2/4/2023.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.
