According to the representation Full Buddhism: "Asoka's famous king, a devout Buddhist. King was confident but Thuong Tu Buddhism, brother king, not only did not believe but also defame the Three Jewels. Asoka often admonish me but inflicted very obstinate, he did not know to begin treatment and how they metabolize.
One day, King Asoka called a courtier in the palace. After listening to the king and told particularized, courtiers obey the execution ...
One day, at twilight, Asoka, the great gods were bathing along Thuong Tu entered the inner palace. Seeing that the king crown king absent, the cells expressed the same dragon right there, courtiers said to Normal Tu said

• Monkey King! His general appearance and very similar great king, if he was wearing dragon into how cells also appear to believe he is the king Asoka.

Often working Tu said he was illegal but curious mind to promote, he went to his robes and wearing crowns on the king. Asoka's true that moment came out, saw how angry, scolded inflicted that:

• You're hepatomegaly, dare wear my crown, you'd have to be doing to counter it?

The evidence was incontrovertible, often not deny running on target? Asoka ordered:

• Bring him out beheaded!

Courtiers rushed to dissuade:

• Lord! Kids often Tu is king, not the outside, moreover it is the first offensive, please Royal pardon!

Asoka's look gloomily face inflicted, then suddenly asked:

• My real question, you like a king, right?
• Although very fond of, but would not think god. Tu usually mumble answers.
• King shall joy in public places?

Tu usually regained composure, replied:

• King was the most respected country, the king enjoys pleasures are too numerous, the king blessed with the endless ... so what is not happy?

Sticky! You've wanted to be king, we abdicate to thee seven days, was complacent maturity, you will be executed.

Tu often very afraid of dying, every day more per insecure king. Not only did he not enjoy anything but anxiety that envision emaciated.
Seven days passed, Asoka took the throne back, front office of all officials martial king asked inflicted saying

• Seven days you king, must have enjoyed a lot of pleasure?

Often Tu bow replied:

• Last seven days actually filed not hear, not see anything, just thinking about the death penalty alone to enjoy ...

Asoka very kindly, preach the doctrine concerning human suffering, especially in matters of life and death that inflicted emotional tears, found refuge in Buddhist center ".
Those who have conquered and down, step on the threshold of glory, all this experience. Yet people away when looking at the success, few people understand the price they pay, sometimes have blood and tears.
At the higher status, more jobs and greater responsibility, what is out there and just sit and enjoy. All leaders, whether big or small, including Church leaders also no exception. This was not the time to step up to the peak of fame, built the glorious inheritance, the age had fallen into near dusk or twilight of his life. They were about to face a truth, though nobody wants, that is death.
For human life, the death penalty is always dangling in front and after death where we are going is always in mind. All the career world are not permanent, then we must also give it the go.
Thuong Tu king but just think of birth and death should extinguished any desire, no interest iris center. Likewise, the practice if the mindset of birth and death problem solving is easier to let go of the ordinary constraints.END=NAM MO SAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGTHMENT.WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.10/10/2015.
