Who will care for me?
One time , the Buddha went for a walk The residence of the Thay to observe . Buddha saw a teacher was lying alone in a room below ground to attack dysentery (dysentery) very heavy. The master is on his stool and urine. Buddha asked the other brothers where, why no one care for him? The teacher repliedthat because he did not help anything to anyone, so they ran away and let him alone to deal with their illness.
Buddha immediately wrong attendant his Ananda to fetch water, and they both showered, cleaned him, then lifted him up to in bed. Then Buddha called all the other teachers and ask, why did the teacher was leaving alone in a situation like that. Who also replied to the Buddha, saying, "Dear Bhagavan , because he does not help for us!"
The Buddha said, "Teacher, you are no longer having parents to take care of you and if you do not care for each other, who will take care of you?" And the Buddha also used this opportunity to set the precepts teaches teachers to care for each other during illness.
The story touched This says one aspect of the Buddha which we at present see in the scriptures in Pali. And more importantly, I think that story also speaks to the reality of humanity today, and it also brings hope and shows us a path to liberation .
One of the problems big and very real which mankind must face today as we are located in the main classified their profile. The Jewish money from the consumption of us , from the junk, objects discarded, until the chemical, toxin secretion oozing from the lives of ourselves, we have defiled habitat mine. And what the Buddha taught, can also be applied here: There is no thing that naturally happens to be all. Things like this is not due to one of the flag, luck, Or because of the will of a certain god , but it is the result of doing one 's own. The world we live in is a product of our own action, which in itself is an expression of our consciousness .
We can also, like the old teachers, only care for themselves! But Buddha also reminded us that today we have no parents to care for us anymore. Mother earth today is too exhausted , not enough strength to continue to receive the exploitation, abuse , destruction of our resources. And no matter how powerful power is, the heavenly Father must be helpless before the law of cause and effect .
If we do not care for each other, who cares for us ? Which one of us has the right to say, "Can not the man help me?" Oil like it or not, all of what we are also together in one state together . Learning to care for one another, caring for one another is the most important thing on the way we go, in our practice .
The unclean, unclean will be washed by the cool and clean water . The toxin of lust , anger and delusion Jealous out from the center of knowledge of us , will be cleansed purified by the generosity , the compassion and wisdom . Once we are lifted up and put on a clean place , regaining our self-esteem, we will be able to start a recovery process , and have a good time. Buddha is a doctor,
But any dose, no matter how wonderful oil , is only effective if you drink only. How happy this life would be if we shared and helped each other with the Buddha's teachings , raised one another up and shared our love to relieve one another's suffering. Whether it's a stranger , or someone you do not like . Even if they are "can not help me!" And I can dare say that I can do it myself.END=NAM MO CAKYA MOUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTENMENT.VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.13/4/2017.
