In Indian culture, it is often said that the omnipotent tree is a good omen. I was born under the Adu-ca tree in the garden of Lumbini.
Because my mother and I were okay, this tree was called the Unhealthy tree.
Business Amitayus, upper (Dai 12, 266 lower) recorded: "Infinite memories of life difficult to see, hard to see, just like the longevity flowers, right time to appear.
This type of flower due to the good omen and the strange feeling is kind There is no heaven in the world,
if Nhu Lai is born, thanks to his great merit, his skill will appear
because this flower is rare and difficult to meet, so there are many places in Buddhist scriptures this example uses the flower hard to see him born.
(According Joinesia Roxk Asoka) MISSES VÔ ADVANTAGES *
Prince Siddhartha was born under the canopy of the Blossoming tree, which was the Buddha later. So this flower is associated with Buddha's Birthday. Its Sanskrit name is Asoca, the Chinese translates to Vo Uu Tho (the omnipotent tree), green leaves, flowers blooming in clusters, bright red-orange color, giving off a fragrant aroma.
Prince Siddhartha, shortly after birth, stood up and walked seven steps, each of the boy's steps having a lotus blossom supporting his foot.
Standing on the seventh lotus throne, the prince pointed one hand to the sky, one hand to the ground, saying "Heaven and the earth are unique" (In heaven and under heaven, we are the most noble).
That statement has caused many people to wonder. Is that arrogance, ego?
But no, dear. Like the flower, don't believe it because it's name. Because flowers are named by humans.
Do not understand the meaning of the word "self" that "TA is first". Because the meaning of words is also set by people.

During the brief retreats at the monastery, I only do one thing, which is to look deeply into my soul, to find the origin of goodness, of impermanence, of pure love . And then with those eyes, I look at my friends and my relatives, I see the world around me. "Listening to understand, looking back to love" .
There is a very familiar meditation: "When I was not studying the religion, I found the mountain is a mountain, a river is a river. When I study the religion, I find that the mountain is not a mountain, a river is not a river. I saw mountains as mountains, rivers are rivers. "
We can go over the world, listen to all languages, see all things. But we can only understand by looking and listening with humble and clear heart, without bringing any prejudice or obstinate.
When we look at the people around us in the purest view, we can recognize them as themselves, regardless of whether we are rich or poor, beautiful or ugly, good at bad, humble, regardless of skin color, religion religion, class, political opinion ... Then, we can "see the mountain is a mountain, a river is a river".
I believe that the self in the phrase "unique and unique" of Prince Siddhartha is about what has been in every human since birth. The so-called "human chi chi, Tanh goodness".
The innocent, unhelpful, honest, kind, loving. The most noble, worth cherishing and preserving the most. That is the true, most common "self" of mankind.
That is the Buddha mind that everyone has. That is the starting point of the human realm. That is the miraculous miraculous flower cluster of the human soul.
But in this busy life, sometimes we bury it ourselves, sometimes we forget. And sometimes like an unending flower, people don't think it exists.
But you already know that, if we listen, look back, seek, we will certainly find it, won't we?
Certainly, we will find an unflattering bunch of flowers in the soul of every person we know. And in ourselves.
