The Way of the Descent

A. Before and After Life hours i.

 Not understand the Buddha Dharma that has been precepts, it is easy to be born high mind, conceited.

 You do not blind blind obscure obscure, blindly blind dim dreaming about. Precepts is because of repentance, not the end of the body, the body of the body.

When in the Forum, you talk less, less with other people exchange (or coast). When you have time, bow to Buddha, recite Buddha.

 In the Forum, the life expectancy from everywhere, always crowded. Remember, I came here not to compete with them to see who would wear better, stay better, or eat better!

 When you take the precepts, if you work hard, patience, you will enter the Tao.

What the story (in the Forum) is very simple; You do not compare other people to see who eat good, sleep well, or how this story, how it is ... Life is about learning the posture, rules; Not the time to talk, talk marketing, create the karmic.

 After receiving the precepts, you have to be completely different from the one that did not take precepts - taking precepts, doing more suffering, wiping out, correcting all bad habits, ending bad thoughts Evil

 You must always recite the precepts; So there is no love love.

 There is a law of restraint, hold, you are not easy to do the wrong thing, harassment.

 Dhamma is life tolerance. When your ears hear people cursing or provoking, irritating you, and you do not mind, then that is the world.

 "Gender" is the internal (self-reincarnation), not the world (restraining others).

At the moment you cried a bad idea, use the Precepts to stop it.This is called taking the world as a teacher.

 It is necessary to study Bhikkhuni Nihilism and apply daily.

B. Exclusion

 When not precepts, because you do not know the rules, the Law, you have violated Gender; That is not intentional. This is the moment; It is intentional. This crime is very heavy. About the precepts, then keep the precepts, follow the rules of the law.

 The precepts are not the three precepts (the mark on the head). Gender is at heart. Therefore, when you know you are doing something wrong, immediately repent. When you maintain a proper gender, there will be no more generals (or conception about).

 When the precepts, then we must bring about practice. Not having been ordained, he was promoted to the Venerable Dharma, Dafa. Between cultivators there is no high division.

 There are many who go to life about learning more greed.When they come back to the pagoda, they become pleasant, enjoy eating, wearing nice, in good condition; No longer knows about the brave, more diligent.

 In the precepts are taught the rules of all things, including the Master's work. You have to learn, read thoroughly, so it is not easy to make mistakes; And if you do, then you do good work.

 Precepts are to command themselves; Therefore, repentance is also about repentance.

 Keep the precepts, but do not go to extremes, attachments.If not, although I intend to keep the World but the results are pushed away. Because, holding the precepts is not causing defilements (making yourself or others afflicted, suffering) and not conflict with others.

 When you have your general, the general (who distinguishes the boundary between me and you, mine and yours), you will most likely encounter the dispute. Go to the monastery, not to fight, argue. Masters must "mass management", harmony with everyone; Well then everyone is good.

 Go to the monastery, not to dispute who is right who is wrong. That attitude is secular, always dividing themselves and people.

 Have been ordained monk, no competition, contention, not quarrel over losing, more or less, right and wrong ...; Those are all "smell" fame.

 When the Master said: "The monk is not entitled to mercenary, because all the benefits will be harmful, therefore, not cultivate the desire for fame"; Someone asked: "So what is the reputation of the Four Reverends?"

Hoa-Thuong replied: "I do not even know about it, because they are all illusory. Nobody knows about myself is the best!"

Asked nodded: "That is the true elaborate!"

C. This Mind!

 Now that you have left the family, but you are like in the immense sea, find no way out.

 The renunciant should have no desire (no desire at all) and no place (not letting any mental problems, anything, or thoughts, moods, feelings).

 You have to cultivate nature; Ie modification of character, bad habits; That is also Buddhist-nature tu. Each person, who has the Buddha-nature pure; This Buddha-nature is the Tao.

 You should depending on the nature of other people (not conflict), in harmony with everyone.

 The monk is to cure the mind like a monkey, fixing the mind like a horse.

 The monk is required to work in all time at all times, to recite the Buddha to subdue the mind.

 Buddhist monks should go to many, not necessarily sit in meditation; Because when Zen practitioners are not mature enough, you are more likely to get involved in meditation.

 The monk must renounce the body - who cursed, humiliated, denigrated, tormented, tortured ... you must be indifferent as not. The concept of self (the "I", the "I") must be wiped out in order to be able to cultivate.

 You have to get rid of greed, eat, sleep, happy; So you are new to blessed. Do not be at home; Full of attachment. Rising is one of the three pearls (Jewels - Buddha, Dharma, Sangha).Therefore, as monks, you have to cultivate well; Only simple, pure silver can practice the Precepts, Concentration and Wisdom.

 The temple is a public place. The monks, nuns from other temples, if they keep the rules can stay in the temple to cultivate.

 The conduct of the monk is monk in the rúpa, life, idea, action, wake - the year; Here to make them "no." Therefore, wear a coarse cloth, eat frugally. This does not mean that you go on a hunger strike, that is, eating enough, wearing warm is good;Not greedy, racing.

 About eating; For those who leave home, who give what, what to cook, then eat. No prior, fussy; Not eaten, like delicious.The food is a little bit, a little bit still eaten. If you keep eating, like delicious, your karma is not easy to eliminate. If you still start to gluttonousness, rebirth does not escape! Actually, what foods if tested can also find toxins. When you eat what you eat, you eat enough is enough; Do not be frustrated, disgusted enough.

 The monk should never fear death. Death to the West, the better!

Cultivators need to have the power to "turn things into nothing"!

 Wrap the casserole on yourself, you have to cultivate to no longer do anything obfuscate, bother. Do not be afraid, be concerned about the situation; Do not be embarrassed on the love affairs ... All things, all the fuss is superfluous. END=NAM MO SHAKYAMOUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTENMENT.VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.3/7/2017.
