sutra An Truc Tam.

This sutra was said by the Buddha at the monastery level, Sàvatthi. The sutras are self-taught and exemplary.

The contents of the sutras, the Buddha pointed to the methods of revenge of the mindset, evil mind to lead to the destruction of these thoughts, evil to achieve the tranquility of the mind. These methods help the mind of the practitioner at every promotion so called hyperbolic. The Buddha listed five generals, can be called five ways, to help suspend evil thoughts, leading to calm, one-pointedness, calm the interior.

The five methods are:
1. When the practitioner meditates, he or she thinks of a certain general condition, rather than leading to tranquility, attainment of ungodliness, anger, immorality; Again, arousing apprehension, anger and delusion, he immediately went on to another form which gave rise to good thoughts to counter previous crimes. Thanks to such an object that the evil thoughts are suspended, gradually leading to destruction. By destroying the evil thoughts that the mind is staying, static.

Through such observation, thoughts of evil are suspended, leading to the calm, the one, the inner calm.

3- The third case is that if you observe the dangers and the sins that still do not succeed, then do not remember thinking, thinking about those thoughts or any other. By stopping all such thoughts leads to calm and calm.

4. If the suspense of all such thinking is still ineffective, then begin again by observing the modes of thought as well as the state of suspense. There are practitioners of such practice that suspend the evil thoughts, leading to calm, inner calm.
