Though a drop of water, though a grain of rice, wasted wastes will go up, which will reduce some of your and your children's blessings. Things will have to pay back, when people to the late afternoon no disease that other people are also poor. This is called reductionism. If they are seriously wasted, they even lose their life.
"Who ate the bowl full of rice,
A flexible aromatic bitter seeds want to share!"
There is a great saying: Waste is a great crime. In the years of material deprivation, people often remind each other. But with the development of society and the material life is enhanced, this famous saying is also fading in the memory of people. In today's society, this wasteful phenomenon is everywhere, especially food and water.
Not everyone has three meals a day.
In the family, leftovers are often poured away without a trace. In the restaurants, hotels, many of the top not-so-delicious food are also dumped in the trash. Especially when people eat with "temple money", the spectacle of a large amount of left over waste is more common.
Young people today can hardly understand the hardships and thrifty in the lives of the previous generation. Well-off rich people are hard to understand with these two words "wasted". They think that their life is better then wasting a little bit of food.
But wasting food is irresponsible behavior to society and to oneself, but also to reducing our limited good fortune. Food is made by a farmer who has a dew in the sun: "The plow is in the midday, sweating like a rain of farmland. Who ơi bowl full of rice, plastic fragrant a bitter bitter taste ".

These verses we hear are also familiar ears, almost from everyone who is also auu. It depicts the farmer's picture of the sun-scorching sunshine, selling his face to the ground, selling his back to the sky, plowing the plowed land. It helps us to understand the ethics of the farmer's hardships.
In this world, not all people eat three meals a day. Extreme international food shortages have remained unchanged for a long time. Consequently, wasting food is a stupid act.
In addition, saving is also a virtue in the traditional ethics of our nation. Ancient people have said: "See a grain of rice, a spoonful of porridge should also think that it is not simple. Seeing the thread, the shirt should also think that it is difficult. From ancient times, our nation has praised the life of economists. Although life is better today, but this virtue also can not afford to lose.
Waste is an abusive behavior. The nobility of a person is not in their wealth, but in their noble behavior. There are many rich people in the world but they are very economical and do not waste money. They said: We must appreciate the food God gives us, we must be grateful to Him. Do not even dump a grain of rice, do not waste even a drop of water.

Judging from the perspective of the Dharma, waste is the act of reducing the cheerfulness, sowing evil sprouts for themselves
In real life many people do not even know how to cherish a dumpling, a bowl of rice, a piece of paper or a glass of water. They think that leaving a little food, drinking water is just a little thing. But, today we waste a bit, tomorrow wasted a little bit, a lifetime will be a small number again.
The person who is seriously wasting the next life will surely eat satiety or reincarnation as a ghost, suffering retribution from hunger and thirst. Some people want to show that this is rich, but arbitrary spending, in the next life they will certainly be a poor. Seeing people wasting my time, I am anxiously anxious for those who do not understand the law of cause and effect.
People who live in the world, if every day wasted what they have, then even a grain of rice has been cut a little bit of life itself. The whole life of a person can "eat" how much, can "use" how many are also numbered, not that we have the money can spend arbitrarily, extravagant. People will start thinking mind will have cause and effect, let alone a waste?
People often say "On the top three inches are the Spirit." Our everyday behavior and thoughts are recorded by the gods. We must not be self-intelligent but not believe in cause and effect. The words of the great virtues in the past and the Buddha, Bodhisattva say all are true. We need to carefully listen and follow, do not be foolish to do things like "thief deceased bell".

One time I went to eat with my friends. A friend of our new from abroad. Maybe he wanted to show off his wealth, so he called for a lot of food. I suggested he should take a few, should not be wasted. He said: "I have money so not afraid to reduce happiness." I just shook my head. People do not know how to cherish, when punished, remorse can not save anything.
As mentioned above, how many people eat a grain of rice have all the numbers already. When people gradually waste their food in a lifetime, they will someday get sick, sickness can not swallow the rice, even end the life. This is punishment because of the waste of food. Though a drop of water, though a grain of rice, wasted wastes will go up, which will reduce some of your and your children's blessings. Things will have to pay back, when people to the late afternoon no disease that other people are also poor. This is called reductionism. If they are seriously wasted, they even lose their life.
In our lives there is always a very scary phenomenon, it is eating with temple money. This type of diet will often cause leftovers on a whole dinner table to be thrown out completely, extremely wasted. Thus, every participant in eating and drinking suffer the consequences of this food waste. Try to think, the waste that people often attend such parties are not scary enough. So in the next life, what will their fate be, we can contemplate it.
Ancient people have the sentence: "Static tu tu, save money to cultivate. Saving is also a kind of fortune, not waste is also the virtue of self.

People are often wasted, the virtue will disappear very quickly
A friend of mine went to the big city to do business, develop a career. In just five years, he has done quite well. As soon as the company is up as kites meet the wind suddenly suddenly bankrupt. Looking at this friend's daily habits, one can guess that he is unlucky.
He does not understand the cause and effect of food waste, and does not know what cherish the message. Half of the bowl of rice eat bad even if he did not pee, he also pour out without a bit of pity. His underwear was washed with clean water for a dozen times. I know that this habit of you is not good at all, and also many times advised him not to waste, otherwise later will not earn any more. Blessed someone who is thin is difficult to earn money. He did not understand what I was saying so he responded: "No money, how can you waste!" He has his own reasoning.
He bought an expensive suit, wearing one year he did not like anymore thrown into the trash. I asked: "This beautiful vest he does not wear anymore, why not to others?" He says that throwing away is better, throwing away old things means putting off bad luck. I can not understand his way of life. Over the past two years, his career has fallen sharply, and I think he is constantly cutting back on his good fortune. He often goes to high-level bathing, and there are also the younger siblings next door. He thinks that is to enjoy life. I found him very pitiful, dissipated his virtue but also thought he was very rich. It is confused! People live to middle age and still do not know how to bless themselves.
Why in the temple there are genuine people when eating rice dare not waste even a grain of rice. After eating rice, they use rags to clean the bowl of grace. Because they receive the offerings of the ten-tenth faith, wasting a grain of rice is as pity as mountains. How scary! Should not human beings waste at home do not commit suicide or why? In fact, they were equally devastated.
The amount of water used throughout life is limited
I often see a lot of people open a big cock, they flush non-stop. Actually I'm very worried for them. Though not my home country, I also feel very cherished. They do not know that the amount of water used in a life is limited. People often do not understand these profound ethics, because ignorance should not fear. People in old age no longer cheered, the disease, many tribulations. Moreover, this illness is not easy to overcome. This is the punishment according to the law of cause and effect.
We should not arbitrarily waste anything in our lives. We have to set an example that educates young generation how to cherish each drop of water, each grain of rice. This is moral virtue for themselves and their loved ones.END=NAM MO SAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTENMENT.VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN LOTUS MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.6/7/2018.
