A. Open Thread
Tu photography happy benefit of others sentient beings is the duty of the Bodhisattva. Buddha was born aimed at hungry beings from the cycle of birth and death.
The Buddhists follow Buddha footprints all set to do what the Buddha did. While practice, Buddhists never get too focused on that forgotten people themselves, should not worry yourself without enlightenment seeks enlightenment for people. In Buddhism, alone with a block, other people do not, can not be broken out. As long as self-interest concerns even goes against the practice until then. In contrast, more sacrifice for people, the more focused the benefit of others, the more quickly realize until then.
Buddha has countless sentient beings approach, we want to apply the methods do. Song wants concrete results, we have depending on the base ambitions of beings that look well-legal subjects to benefit others. With respect to our fellow man, we thought no effective method practical benefits to people and makes people deeply touched by the legal practice of photography Quartet.
B. District Threads
I. Definition: What is the legal Quartet photography? Ie four methods to convince the benefit of others sentient beings back to the Dharma. The four methods are:
- Giving photographers - Ai contingent photography - photographers operating profit - At the regent
II. French Photographer's General Executive Four
1. Giving Photography: A good society or evil, peace or chaos is not without cause. Causes of chaotic evil is selfishness. Mankind is writhing in pain, skin pot disturbing scenes meat, daily recurrence is due to start, if not is selfish greed?
Buddhism is a religion of compassion, ie sufferings. That the great suffering of the people is what? It is the lack of physical mental confusion, and fear pleased about everything, such as fear of losing money or perish, Travincal etc ..
So people have compassion, wanted to save suffering, you must first let go of selfishness, to give everyone what they have, to give what others want. Means to make generosity. Because of his generosity that I admire are those around you, but those around her dear close new and eager to learn the truth. Giving has 3 ways: Where candidates, French pilot and pilot Captain Forever.
a) Where candidates: Where is our money. financing pilot is giving alms money to rescue fellow man free from suffering. The affliction of physical beings can not unspeakable: who lack rice, clothes guys lack, the lack of medicine, who lack shelter ... Standing before suffering his bag, the Buddhist equanimity can not enjoy Private happiness, but instead found himself with the export duty, out of helping the poor, deficient.
Do not make excuses, or self-comforting, poverty alone does not have the money to help others. Actually, as long as you have compassion or not, rather than his complete lack the means to help others. A bowl of rice can still be split into two, one mat is still room for one more person is lying. People often say: "tight belly for lead home", it is. Bring five people millionaires, seven thousand silver does not make people admired, loved by the poor only two suits, which provide for a less.
b) French pilots: France's teachings, are teachings, the teachings of the Buddha and the sages donated, as Tripitaka scriptures. French pilot is giving his valuable teachings which bo0thi, teach beings.
They're fascinated students, twist in the six realms, causing alarm now and then life, other then wishful disillusion. While knowing there dreaming dreams, kept rolling in sugar craving, like butterflies in light headlong. Therefore, the new Buddha taught the Dharma brings makes them born from the suffering of samsara.
France of Buddha abound amount, also much higher, much lower also, sizes, variety of inborn chomoi . Although the country, yet frustrating, inborn high or low, light or dark, once listened to the Dhamma, depending on power are understood at all. So in doing CI sentence: "Most Buddhist theory sound, depending on the type of acquisition beings Prize."
We do not excuse his poor dharma can not do the job applicants are legal. As mentioned above, there are countless numbers Dharma practice, if not know the profound teachings, they also know the normal practice. Each Buddhist chanting at least know, Buddha, Buddha, vegetarian. We brought these things just tell people, so also is the trial and legal. If you do these things with a sincere heart, joy, hope for people trying to go around with the director to get the benefits, it was still worth the precious experimental approach rather than preaching the teachings high with a right attitude sudden or egotistical.
However, were Buddhists, we have an obligation to always exchanging, learning to understand the wide variety, almost freed and to work our experimental method is effective better, more widely available and applied in all cases.
For legal widespread, then the tendency of the Dhamma more and more and less painful for granted.
c) pilot Captain Forever: Forever Captain is not afraid Fear. Fearless pilot was not afraid to bring the pilot to all sentient beings. Fear is a very common mood of beings in the realms of temporary and fake life full of suffering. So people have compassion, must try to do so that we have been born around the calm, peace of mind, do not panic anxiety, fear.
Countless pilots Captain, not only those with courage , has the talent, have the authority entry. Every day around us, how many people are in the situation of fear; if indeed we have compassion wanted to help them out of fear it may not always be impossible: a child who is terrified before the dog teeth of the data; an old woman fearing car rolled dare not cross the road many vehicles; a young woman who went night "scared of ghosts"; HTI born a trembling before oral vv..do is how many opportunities that we can enforce fearless pilot. met the accident, was brought to power the talent or sheltered, sheltered them from fear; meet people sick, fear of death carried away, we take the law very often explained to them and told them to recite the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara or the Buddha Amitabha etc .. that is fearless pilot.
In a nutshell, alms is due to the infinite compassion that do. It has an extremely wide range. When there are beings suffering, we are giving.
The highest form of charity is charity paramitas, generosity means a lot that do not feel I can give alms; charity without recognizing the body of preliminary, do not accept me, man, enemy, friend; refuse alms that the number of experimental animals. Such is the approach we have achieved the "Three moral emptiness" of giving. Meanwhile, Bell is no longer a job or being more considerate ban, which is a natural thing, not to be missed is like eating, drinking, like a certain duty every day.
So did the Buddhists it is impossible not to be enforcement alms. The implementation of this option means and talent, his power card, and in what circumstances they can do it, rather than waiting for enough some certain conditions for entry. As long as the more we try to help, save for the long suffering then you until then.
2. Loving photography: Kind words are depending on the base photographers nature beings that wise speaking, consolation, he pleaded, that makes them human birth dear heart, admire, and from there they follow me which school directors .
In life most people's dependence, dependable power, for all those who use words not elegant, it makes those around disgusted. Once they are not loved, admired, the gastric tract but in front of them, yeah yeah, but the back did not submit to, obey. So much work to be damaged.
proverb that says: "Words do not lose money buying, choose your words carefully to please the other." Indeed, words are a treasure that everyone has both, irrespective of rich and poor, to, cowardly. But his words this man used should work, and the other uses it to spread bankrupt. The reason is because a party spot know gentle word spoken, easy going, and a gruff side, vulgar. Many people, self-defense, often says: "Emptiness me upright and heat, should or talking big, but actually I have no malice". No malice, but makes others around suffering, discomfort for indecent speech, his rough, then what other evil people?
So we Buddhists want touched, leading people around on the right way, it must first apply to the sect loving, that is always and in every case, to use the word gentle, quiet, loving, while contact with people. Especially when people are in misery, then the tips Balcony, pampering even extremely valuable, as it may be wound dissipates heart and makes people extremely appreciate, hard to fade fuzzy.
3. Operating profit regent: regent's operating profit to benefit people by thought, word or action, to make people comfortable dear students studying religion and follow me.
The best example in terms of operating profit is his mirror Bodhisattva location. Throughout his life, he often bear embankment road, giving flat, or bridge to pedestrian travel is easy and convenient. He replaced the old burdens, help push the wagon up the steep, help the boatman rowed upstream ... In short, regardless of the sizes, provided helpful for people that He never nan. See this, it is not necessary to wait for the new have the means to benefit people. Only a few health can also help a lot of benefits to it.
Maybe just a good idea, an introduction or can also help to those around with jobs.
For people rich, many vehicles, the scope of activities for the more extensive operating profit. They can export money into nursing homes, feeding people in failing health, to their old age less dark, peril; or they built creche, orphans parents, let professional education and training for them into useful citizens. Or workhouse construction, food, clothing support to the hungry hard, or build clinics to cure those diseases; or building schools to help children have a place to study. That's how much work extremely benefits, both for life both for religion. The good works that will humanize and guide them back to the path of liberation is the path of Buddhism.
4. At the regent: At the regency is depending on the base, ambition, status, occupation of whom travel to their work, cooperate with them, to help them face in a profession, a raised surface High good examples, make them affection and follow me approaching religion at all.
For example, when I worked in an office, in a factory, in business or in agriculture, from the large to the small, from thoughts to words, we always exemplary ethical, dedicated to paddle to work, willing to sacrifice their interests, for coworkers, gradually those colleagues, injects the virtues my good character, willing to listen, do what I advised.
At the same career, is an effective approach to photography of people around return path. Giving photographers, photography or interests operating loving photography, although people are inspiring, but not permanent and do not have such a profound influence booting the photographer. Such as our people are giving, or operating profit, is not always at our side, but only occasionally does grace; longer term the only loving speech in speech; but saying whether or how much soothing cough, can not turn into a coat rice, the necessities of life suffering and deprivation of the people around it.
But with fellow photographers, we can help in a practical way and often to people who live in a situation with a career with us. I always close intimacy with them, so we fully articulate dreams, mood, their needs; thus we can help them a more effective way. I become a central pillar of their support; so we can regency of them easily, deeper. A common comment that where public or private profile establishments, factory or farm, everyone is a true Buddhist, devout, exemplary, poked in which people increasingly crowded Buddhism, stronger .
III.Loi Ich Tu Of Photography France
If we practice in accordance with French photographer quarterfinals will see the beautiful result of the following:
1. On an individual level, I will be a role model; every thought, every word, every action that we are a good seed sown in the field blessing that later we shall reap valuable results, good. What of us speak out, make are sympathetic, approval, affection for. We can attract attention easily, widely, and each time getting anywhere, we are welcoming a heartfelt, warm. Therefore, we will easily succeed in everything.
2. In terms of family: As an outsider, unfamiliar but also loved him, loved us, why the parents, wives, children, brothers who are familiar not endear me? Due to the good influence and prestige of us, everyone in the family have become net salaries, both virtuous. And a family of such elements, the agreement could also be on the air below, in soft warm outside, means happiness.
3. In terms of society: A legal practitioner from Regent has good influence and transformation is part social circumstances. Number of suicides Photography French society stems much more improved, and become a net salary, virtue and beauty.
People often blame negative Buddhism is pessimistic. The criticism was wrong, just bring a French doctrine Photography Quartet prove this out, is enough to be immediately demolished. Indeed, if applied strictly French quartet into life Photographer fact, then society will be improved a very beneficial way.
C.Ket Arguments
As mentioned above, France Four Photography is a means to improve society a most effective way. It took birth as a basic benefit, for the happiness of all beings as purpose. Here we remember each point:
1) Bring wealth to help the needy, handicapped, brought Buddhism chomoi converts spoken to spare evil good, brave bring emotional or material to protect those around you from fear.
2) Be courteous to say moderates, to inspire people to take the path of healing.
3) Do the benefits to everyone in all cases.
4) Mix in life , in the work of those around you, to identify the people demand their passionate, mostly to help them effectively, and bring them gradually to the main road.
So Buddhists, we can not indifferent to the calls that get the benefit of others.
If we ignore, we are not a true Buddhist, because we were missing two most important factors to practice: that compassion and interest tha. Missing two points that never we can progress along the path and the Buddha.END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGTHMENT.WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=THE EIGTHFOLD PATH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.4/6/2015.
