EFFECTS OF BUDDHISM FOR TYPE review At that time, people also considered Buddhism to be like a mysterious and superstitious colorful religion and no one believed that Buddhism would be able to play an important role in guiding spiritual life. for the Western peoples today. There are many Europeans, most of them opposing faiths, who have criticized Buddhist distortions, as well as trying to explain to their friends that the influence of Buddhism is harmful because it sows sprinkle pessimistic pessimism for people. Therefore, under their eyes, Buddhism is a dangerous obstacle to all national social and development activities. However, those who know Buddhism have more or less lived in purely Buddhist countries such as Burma, Thailand, where people feel that life is almost peaceful and happy. most in the world, they will immediately see the above criticism of Buddhism of some Westerners is completely unfounded, false truth. Below, we will see that a supreme, supreme doctrine like Buddhism can only have a good effect on people's xinxing and bring many practical benefits to society and the nation.Buddhism always reminds people to believe in themselves, diligently practicing to liberate themselves. No religion has confirmed that diligence is the main motive for people to reach the whole world and on the contrary, to liberate (laziness) that causes people to suffer as the Buddha taught: "Fine tons is the path to Nirvana, to liberate and to delay is the way of birth and death "The other place the Buddha said:" Hey monks!Thanks to the will to meditate firmly, I have been enlightened because of the diligence that I have been completely liberated. O Monks! If you know how to practice diligently forever, you will soon witness the Supreme Bodhisattva fruit. " And before entering Nirvana, the Buddha's last will also teaches: "Do your best efforts to liberate yourself."Therefore, on the way of practice, Buddhists always rely on their own efforts. They do not rely on any external force, because they understand that no one, no matter how much he has power, he will not save them from the present life, the sufferings and suffering that they have sowed from their previous lives. So, "Good because of me, but because of me. Pure or impure by us. No one can make others pure. Buddhism teaches that each of us is responsible for taking the good or evil actions we have caused and the life of happiness or suffering is also built by our own hands. Because: "All bad actions are not caused by my parents, my friends, but because I have created them, so I have to reap those suffering results." Buddhists know that it is not entirely dependent on the help of the Buddha, the Church, or the monks that they can liberate, so Buddhists are forced to rely on their efforts to practice in the right way. dear to save yourself. Thanks to that, they achieved the height of self-confidence. It is also impossible to deny that trust in a God or any imaginative power makes people weak, lose their self-confidence and self-responsibility. On the contrary, those who are confident in their own abilities will become determined and strong. Not only did Buddhism develop self-confidence in people but also advised people to be wise before believing something. Buddhism denies the belief in blind practices or idle powers.Wanting to achieve the truth, freeing all suffering, people must believe in the ability to enlighten and meditate on themselves. The Buddha taught: "Do not believe in anything but it is a verbal transmission or practices. Do not believe anything even if it is taught by a master. What you consider yourself to be wrong, evil will cause suffering for you and everyone else, please don't believe it. ” A doctrine upholding the ability of human enlightenment like that can not influence the harm to humanity. Religions that deny personal reason, compel blind believers to believe in gods, dogmas or false rituals, really put people on the path of superstition, social bankruptcy. So the human spirit only improves when they have freedom of thought. And everyone has found that blind faith in doctrine and belief has caused people to be obstinate and their hearts are narrowly selfish. Today they remember the Middle Ages with torture, burning, and human slaughter, and horrifying jihad. All these inhuman actions are the result of the passionate belief in the doctrine of the Divine religions. In short, every authoritarian and brutal undertaking always brings human society to the scene of decline and barbarism against evolution. In contrast, a free and peaceful progress in social, moral, intellectual, artistic, scientific and philosophical development can only appear in a country that respects tolerance and tolerance. like freedom of human thought. And it is not possible in a country where there is religious, political discrimination or human freedom is completely squeezed. Now the first thing to help us develop this tolerance in humanity is compassion, but according to Buddhism it is the moral foundation for building up all human social and moral advances. Right, People of true countries who follow Buddhism are imbued with this compassionate spirit. It is not the result of blind faith in fixed doctrines but as a result of genuine understanding that all beings from humans to insects have a close relationship: "I am all all beings, all beings are us. Because our life with the life of all beings is one, humans have no right to kill any life. No religion in the world refers to compassion as Buddhism. It shows through the sincere sutras that daily monks recite with the purpose of praying for sentient beings regardless of the kind that always escapes suffering and is happy. Therefore, in the Buddhist countries, the Compassion (Metta Sutta) was used daily to recite two evenings in the evening for all monks, Venerable and Venerable monks, As big and small, I would like to quote a short paragraph below: "As a mother takes care of her only unique child. Doing so when we are with all sentient beings, Let us be compassionate and compassionate, Spill over the vast universe, Above all, No more hatred and hatred thoughts ... " Meanwhile, fanatics who believe in the Divine Right now advise their followers: "Kill your enemies wherever you meet them. Bath them in the blood because it is a punishment for those who are not faithful. Or "Fight against your enemies until they surrender, until they will worship God. Must make them suffer all the suffering of revenge" So we find that where cruel counsel is accepted, there will be a picture of the harmful effects of fanaticism, cruel and can cause human world terrible suffering and anxiety. Everyone sees that the above-mentioned compassion and virtue are often mentioned in Buddhist sutras, a characteristic that is difficult to find in the scriptures of other religions. Indeed, no famous missionary of Buddhism has the idea of slandering or hatred against other people of their faith and never has discrimination on national religion or politics in one. the nation has truly imbued the spiritual spirit of Buddhism. Thus, without the need for a gun or a sword, Buddhism still conquers the hearts of hundreds of millions of people around the world. Historically, as we know, since Buddha was still alive today, there has not been a single drop of blood flowing because of the Buddha's name or the spread of his teachings. But what about other religions? It is impossible to cite here all the barbarous means that some religions have used to spread their morality. Moreover, Buddhism also teaches that faith and external forms of development do not necessarily help Buddhists to attain enlightenment and spread Buddhism by force means expanding the virtues of publicity. peace and love by means of injustice and brutality. Buddhists do not consider the conversion of others to be important. For someone who considers himself a Buddhist or not, it is not necessary for them, because Buddhists know that, only they themselves understand and practice the doctrine, do they come close to being saved. Buddha's liberation. Buddhists just want to create peace for others by guiding them back to moral light, intellect and show them a way to escape from all suffering.And from the past, this compassionate spirit also strongly influenced the Buddhist peoples, making people perform many useful charitable works such as setting up free highways of shelters. for tired travelers or provide food and drink for people and animals; building trade houses and distributing medicines for patients, etc. .. Thus, it can be said that instead of damaging humanity - as Western countries often express - left Again, Buddhism is one of the world's religions that encompasses many of the best methods that can improve and educate the mind for people. It awakens in people self-respect and self-responsibility. Buddhism also encourages spiritual progress by celebrating one's own ability to think. It is common in humanity's tolerance of tolerance and helps mankind get rid of narrow-minded fanaticism because of national belief. It promotes humanity and compassion, brotherhood, and eliminates people in anger and violence. In short, Buddhism has raised the spirit of self-confidence by teaching that human destiny lies in its hands, and it is man who has enough strength to develop good virtues, in order to attain liberation. But God and Buddha can never help that person.Therefore, self-esteem, self-confidence, tolerance, compassion, wisdom are good virtues that can be created for humanity through the influence of Buddhism.END=NAM MO SAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.9/5/2019.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.
