iddhi

Noun  iddhipada  be interpreted as:  ijjhanam iddhi . Iddhi the event was successful, full circle has been completed, or completed fullness. [2]

In the teachings of the Buddha have five  iddhis . That is:

1. Abhinneyyesu dhammesu abhinna-siddhi,  [3] 
2. Parinneyyesu dhammesu parinna-siddhi,

It was a successful year ( iddhis ) chief in the Teachings of the Buddha ( Buddha Sasana ).

Abhinna-siddhi  means: fullness completed the task of knowing the  paramattha dhammas (ultimate truth, or the base) that before, when I was standing outside the teachings of the Buddha, had no knowledge of. Ultimately,  Abhinna-siddhi  is smooth  Abhidhammattha Sangaha  [4] (Abhidhamma Compendium, outlines all the essential doctrines of the Abhidhamma).

Parinna-siddhi  means: completing tasks fullness fully understanding  dukkha Sacca  (Truths of Suffering), or via a seamless  lakkhana  (the characteristics),  rasa  (functions),  paccupatthana  (the expression), and  padatthana  (the proximate cause), or through understanding the three characteristics anicca  (impermanence),  dukkha  (suffering) and  anatta  (no-self) of all things.

Pahāna-siddhi  means: complete fullness corrective tasks, exclusion ( pahāna ), or eradicated, the kilesas  (pollution), which is  sammudaya Sacca  (Truths about the Cause of Suffering). In this book, since the main emphasis is on the attainment of the lowest level of Tu-Da-Huon ( sotàpanna ), or "Bon-sin-san" sotàpanna,  and not on the floor of St. higher, so the programmer please complete the task to eradicate  Sakaya-ditthi  (My Knowledge) is  pahāna-siddhi.  tasks excluded  vicikiccha (disbelief) in eradication missions  Sakaya-ditthi  (My Knowledge).

This is also the successful consummation seven stages of purification (Purity) starting with the classification of sex and women, where the variety iddhi, in the sense of many kinds of capabilities in its domain.

Iddhipada

The word is explained as:  iddhiya iddhipado Pado , ie root or foundation to completion or fullness to approaching perfection (success or ability) [5]

There are four types  iddhipadas  (As the Tuc). That is:

1. Chandiddhipado (chanda, as the sufficient education)
2. Viriyiddhipado (viriya, attack like that excluded)
3. Cittiddhipado (citta, the mind as the excluded)
4. Vimamsiddhipado (vimamsa or pannà, scout law, or intellectual as the excluded).

Chanda  means (zeal), eager to be there, wholeheartedly want to succeed, want to come to, want to complete fulfillment, want achievements. intention here is extremely desirable, desired elevation level.No detailed reasoning, inside or outside individuals can be dissuaded her desire. This is the kind of desire that came the thought, "If I do not attain this in this life, I shall not feel secure. I would rather die than live without as the will."

This is the kind of desire that at the time of the Buddha Kassapa [6], King Dhammasonda [7] Origin Benares has always had nourished in my heart when the German king thought to himself, "How the king as it is useless if we do not hear a time French Kassapa Buddha? " Then he left the throne, to leave, decided to find someone who can feel free to repeat to him a French period of Kassapa Buddha, regardless how long or short, with just one oil well stanza.

One such earnest desire is appeased if satisfied as King Bimbisara case [8], Visakha, and Head Assuming Anathapindika [9]. Only when lightning vague indication that the desire can be attained but not fulfilled, that the mind becomes troubled, and thoughts arise that would rather die than live without satisfying the aspirations.

There are also similar examples such as the case of King Temiya [10], King Hatthipala [11], the kings, the noble princes and rich men to the Buddha gave up their palaces, shuns retinue servants and luxurious life to life on silk velvet monk (bhikkhu) of the Teachings of the Buddha.

Viriya,  diligence, or attack as the sufficiency, meaning  sammappadhana viriya , primary needs, together with its four characteristics [12]. Who have devoted themselves to such virtues instilled the idea that self-goals are attainable if your hard it tries. Run him not even sure that their oil will be one hundred thousand difficulties experienced hardships. He did not lose heart though he actually met the extremely arduous conditions of austerity. He is not discouraged even though it says that I have worked diligently for many days, months, years. He is not discouraged even though he actually has to put forth effort for long time like that.

People whose virtues are weak effort debilitating setbacks when confronted by the task of difficulties need to be diligent attendance. They shrink when heard of separation from friends and associates. They timidly apprehensive at the prospect of eating frugally need, sleep must be sober. They must step back from the prospect long meditation practice.

Center (Citta) , as the center-sufficient, which means clinging to the  iddhis , successfully, when met Teachings ( Sasana ) and listening to sermons. This is extremely clinging ardent and intense.

Although nothing good lives among the luxuries of the world and, between the power, money and abundant blessings, among the precious books and study wholeheartedly learning, do not immerse immersed in it but always about the afferent  iddhis , as the residence. I just contented and relieved when the mind is absorbed in matters relating to iddhis, as the residence. As well as the alchemist meticulous attention to, and just pay attention to, the state of metamorphic gold or silver, without thinking of anything else, forget all eat, sleep, unaware to whatever you go out out. Mind, Citta, always intently absorbed in nature  iddhis.

Vimamsa  (trạch legal) means: lucid clear understanding, realize the importance of suffering in hell, and the unfortunate circumstances under constant stretching around the existence of samsara . It is the understanding may find specific benefits  iddhis , as the residence. It is the understanding can potentially deep and difficult to understand the law, and the legal nature of the ( dhammas ) hardly comprehend it. One who has no understanding of how to find pleasure in the race and chase worldly pleasures, except the pursuit of the  iddhis , as the residence. He gratification only mastered iddhis, as the sufficiency, the profound and deep. The more profound Dharma, Dharma aspirant as fervent and vigorous.

Who have one of the four as the sufficiency, ie four Essential Success ( iddhipada ) can no longer accept or plead that in this present life he could not diligently worked diligently to firmly solidified in of Body Contemplation ( kàyagatà-sati ) and in the higher level of teaching ( sàsana ) as the seven stages of purification of the mind (the Path of Purity,  visuddhi ). Only those who never had "fundamental" in the Four Bases of Success (Four As the Tuc) and can not see the difference between being shallow and profound state of life, not can distinguish the outer surface layer and what and deep inside teachings ( dhamma ), that only those who accept and sophistry that he could not diligently attempt and had lived listlessness is lax .

Who had one of the four as the Tuc ( iddhipadas ), can accomplish more Tuc As the rest - depending on the number of three-la-honey was stored - until the process reaches the  lokuttara iddhi , As the Additional Supramundane, either in this life or in the next life in a heavenly realm. Of these cases have two, or three, or four as standard Additional did not need to discuss more long dong.

Where those without "fundamental to the success" should try to achieve one of the Four As the Tuc (iddhipadas ). These persons should only accept and sophistry that I could not do it because I did not have the desire to acquire the supreme interests of the Teachings ( sàsana ), as the four foundations of mindfulness ( satipatthàna ). What he should see acceptance can not be the way he rushed into four motorway misery ( Apaya-loka ). As such, this position should learn, study, meditation and contemplation of the teachings of the scriptures [13] making sincere desire arises, please urge ( chanda). Should these persons approached a teacher can arouse, the generator of his zeal and his refuge teacher.

Thus the Buddha taught:

Chandiddhipadam bhaveti, Viriyiddhipadam bhaveti,
Cittiddhipadam bhaveti, Vimamsiddhipadam bhaveti. 
He cultivates enthusiasm, effort, interest and scouts as the Basic law of the Success (As the Tuc).

Some people, no "as standard" ( iddhi ) does not attempt to acquire "As the Tuc" ( iddhipada ). If not eager desire ( chanda ), they will not know that they need to have the heart so fervently desired. They were accepted and sophistry that I gave up, did not. Where diligence, care, and legal Trach ( viriya, Citta, and vimamsa ) is the same.

Law firm concentrating on  kayagatasati , mindfulness of the body, that is solid  Pada , laying the foundation. Integrated study of the story refers to emergency  samvega  [14] must seriously their self-discipline on the precepts of the ascetics ( dhutanga , happy early momentum) and the similar practice, is solidly diligently ( viriya ). Solid going into the deep problems of the Dhamma, as the four elements ( Maha-Bhuta : earth, water, fire, wind) is solidly in vimamsa,  scout law.

If the success of the four Bases of Success, As the Tuc, they will be able to ensure that the  iddhis [15], as the equivalent would be accomplished, according  parami , three-la-hoarding his honey . That is why the commentary says that no "fundamental success" (As the Tuc) like children Candala classes [16], while people with the Tuc such as Emperor's son. Son of Candala class would never have become emperor prospects because without "basic" ( PADA ) to achieve the status of "Son of the Emperor".But the Son of an Emperor is always nourished hopes to become Emperor because available "basis" to become.

Therefore, the wise wisdom of today have to paddle successful Quartet As the Tuc,  Iddhipada , four basics of success, to eliminate large areas of Personality Belief ( Sakkaya ditthi ) and achievement - in teachings ( Sasana ) of the current Buddha - the most noble benefit can be accomplished, depending on three of their perfections. END=NAM MO CAKYA MOUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTENMENT.WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.2/12/2016.
