Lesson 8:  TEN RELIGION OF BUDDHISM IN CHINESE (CONTINUED)

SUCCESSFUL  .VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.

I. STARTING UP TON RESERVATION  

Religion belongs to Hinayana, based on the meaning of the truth, so called True religion. 

The Ministry of Honesty is written by Armageda (Harivarman, Chinese translator is Lion King), the most intelligent student of Mr. Cā-ma-la-da (Kumaraladha) of the Theravada school. out, about 900 years, after Shakyamuni Buddha entered Nirvana. As we all know in the history of mission in India, after the Buddha entered Nirvana, the Hinayana school split into several groups, explaining that the Buddhist scriptures are not the same. Realizing that the risk could bring Buddhism into decline because of the disagreements about the teachings of those tribes, Armagedam brought all his mind and wisdom to the ground. essence in the commentaries of Hinayana, making the series Honest. The reason he uses the words "Honest" to name his thesis is the implication to say that the meanings in his comment are true, utterly correct with the basic teachings of the three suttas of Buddha. But really, the truth is the comment that can faithfully represent the teachings of the Hinayana. 

And because of that true value, the Ministry of Honesty was transmitted to China and translated into Chinese literature by Mr. Cu-ma-la Thap in Dao Tan's life, including 16 books, divided into 202 articles. But even though people loved it, this commentary had to wait until the North and South dynasties to establish a new religion, namely, "Honesty". 

II. RELIGION AND BASIC TEACHING 

Religion advocates "not human, not legal". 

As we all know, according to the Xa Xa religious is not but legal. Honestly, go further, claiming that no truth, but also not true. 

To explain the "two no" policy, Honestly established two subjects: World subject and First subject meaning. 

1. World subject: The  subject is literally door; The subject world is the door of the world; Normally speaking as it is said today, the "world subject" means standing on the "secular aspect, relative aspect" that observes inference. 

In terms of relative, then there is also, but also France. Indeed, according to common sense, we have a body; I walk, stand, lie and sit; Do we have a mind to think about, to differentiate, to remember the past, to account for the future? Yet it is ridiculous to say that there is no self. Again in the sutta it is often said: we often prevent and preserve ourselves, make good ourselves enjoy good things; do evil, take effect by yourself. So if you say that there is no person, no one, it is contrary to common sense and reasoning. 

In terms of dharma, too, it is ridiculous to say otherwise. If there is no rupa, then how can we have our body and the world around us? Yes, then my body, due to the five aggregates, is materiality, feeling, perception, action, and consciousness. These are also dharma. For example, if we split the material into small pieces forever, then finally, although small to not be able to split anymore, is still excellent, but the color can not be divided into "no". On the contrary, if it is not, then it is impossible to multiply that "no" and become "yes". As in math, no matter how many times it is multiplied by zero, it is still zero. 

2. First of all subjects:  First of the subjects, or feet, is talking about the absolute aspect. Considering this aspect, the Self and the Dharma are fake, not real. When the five aggregates are in tune, then temporarily call us; when the five aggregates disintegrate, that self is no more. Besides that, while we are still having money, every minute and every second changes, changes and is not homogeneous and immutable. 

The same goes for dharma, relatively speaking yes, but absolutely no comment. The law is also due to the harmonious conditions that are temporarily called yes, but there cannot be an absolute, that is, inhomogeneous and immutable. Therefore, the Buddha taught: "all things are as illusory as chemical." The Prajna Sutta also said, "Color is no different, not different from color, color is not, it is not sharp." . Chon is not how? Chon does not mean: the truth of the dharma in the universe is true, but it is not the form as the false appearances that people often see around. The "yes" and the "no" in life, for the feet, or first meaning, are false and untrue. 

Be aware of the "no" in terms of Chon, different from "no" in the meaning of the Noble Truth. The "no" of Chon is called Chon not; and the "no" of the custom is the "no" to treat the "yes" to succeed, that is the World No. Chon does not often die quietly passed away the treatment of "yes" and "no" the mundane. And the Void World is just a rupa to that eye-sense. Chon is not rupa; No new world is identity. Feet not, can not see; No boundaries can be seen. Chon does not object; No boundaries belong to the object. Chon is not illegal, World is illegal. Chon is not invisible, No world is compounded. 

3. The correlation between the Monarch world (Continued) and the  First Noble Truth (Chon): According to the First Noble Truth, the truth of the universe is Chon, which is not annihilated or silent; according to the World subject, there is self and human being, having rupa and no sense, that is, self and dharma. So, is there any correlation between the World subject and the First term? How does the word Chon not impure and arise arises and the Dharma, that is, from the place where Chon does not generate beings and paints the great earth? 

Honestly, that means ignorance. The law in the universe, the nature that is inherently silent, passed away, but because of delusional distrust, there is confusion and wandering. To put it more clearly, the nature of the universe is inherently without self, without dharma, but because of the "two obstacles," there is self and dharma. Two obstacles are: negativity and mental afflictions.

a)  Disturbance of karma , which is the karma of Ants or Private or Private. This obstacle because accept the self is real damage, should be born of the negativity, mental disorders, obstacles to Nirvana President passed away. This block, in the Commentary, is  called "innate defilement". 

b) Department of knowledge:  also known as obstruction. The basis of this obstacle, is the accept of the real dharma, obscuring the non-crazy nature for the scenes we know, hindering the Bodhi path. This line in the Commentary is called "immeasurable defilement" (no defilement, but still belongs to ignorance, because it makes you not clearly know the truth). 

4. 84 dhammas:  As we have seen in the verse, the phenomena of the multiplication and the universe, are classified into 75 dharma. According to the True Honesty, the human being, the universe is divided into 84 French. And France General religious division into 100 legal. Thus, we should understand that the division of more or less the dharma is only a relative problem, not a certain meaning. The classification of this law, only one purpose is to clearly study human beings and the universe. The 84 dharma that Honestly classified as: 

-  14 Sac:  5 Can, 5 Tran, 4 Dai. 

-  50 Minds:  1 Mind King, 49 mental states (compared to the Xa Xa religious, there are 3 more mental states are Han (Tanh cheerful), Yem (boring nature) and Thuy Mien and the Xa Xa religious gathers into one Mind facility, and Honestly divided into two is Thuy and Mien. 

-  17 Non-concentric non-French  (ie Invisible practice). In this category, Honesty is more respectful than Question Xá Ton 3 of law: Honestly integrates "Life-based" and "Synod" is one, but adds: Lao, Tzu, Phàm phu and Scaleless (ie Voiced) Sac Xa religious side). 

-  3 Infinite measures  (as the sentence Xá religious) Trach immeasurable, Africa eliminates invisible and Void emptiness. 

III. METHOD OF COMPLIANCE 

The practice of sincerity and sincerity is similar to that of the Exalted One; but because sentence Xa religious guidelines "no legal owner"; While Honestly, the policy is "no law", so about the religious practice of Honesty, especially there are two legal disciplines: selflessness and non-Frenchmanence. 

1. Non-self-falling and non-habitual France: 

a) Selfless shops:  like a shop in a vase without water, it is called No. Consistent with our body by the five aggregates of temporary fake that there, but not a true one. This custom is intended to identify the reason (self), should be called "the Self is not consistent". 

b) The Dharma is not consistent:  like after the shop has no water, go to another store to see that the body of the vase is also not true. Applying this custom in the body, the practitioner comes to the conclusion that not only are we not real, created by the five aggregates; which the French created the five aggregates are also untrue. It is the customary law about not.  

2. The three cittas and cessation of death:  This method is similar to the two above dhammas, but goes one floor further, meaning that there is no attachment, but no attachment. The three minds are:

a) Pretending to mentally imply , that is, the mind that assumes pseudonyms, such as a person's attachment, is real. For this attachment, practitioners use wisdom to observe, knowing it is the grace of harmony that is born, ie the reason is no.  

b) Dharma mind , which is the attachment to the five aggregates is real For this attachment, practitioners use Chon but not except, see France is not. 

c) No mind  is the mind that accepts the "no" is real, that is, have known that the self falls, the self is not, but accept the "no" is true. Thus, the "yes" is wrong, but the "no" is even more wrong. So must Quan, France are not, but that does not have no general capture, notice, like no world. After all, only the "Chon" is absolute truth, going out to the "yes" and the "no" of the mundane. Coming here means killing the Emperor.  

IV. TOO TU TUAN 

As a result of enlightenment, this religion is just like the verse Xa, there were 27 people who were angry, that is, 27 saints. 

a) Reserve direction:  Reserve direction, meaning towards the holy line; In a nutshell, the practitioner is coming to enter the holy stream, like a boat traveling on a river, to enter a female river. Reserve direction includes the following 3 levels: 

1. Depending on the credit: Depending on the faith means listening to the teachings of the witnesses, then believing and practicing. 

2. Depending on the practice: This person no longer waits for the teachings of the sage, but only follows the Dharma and practices self-cultivation. 

3. General Prime Minister: As the ranks of the director, see the feet of the four miraculous truths, the invisible position has arisen.  

b) Save the results:  That is the result of Tu Da complete. This frustration has ended all or in the three realms, part of the holy.  

c) Nhut hybrid direction:  This force has ended in the fourth year or in the realms of sex, is towards the future results. 

d) Unbirth:  This anger has ended fourth or fourth in the realms of sex, but still have to come back one last time (the future) in the realm of sex. 

d) Incomplete:  This frustration has stopped two fourth or seventh and eighth in the realms of sex, and is practicing to towards the result of imperfection, which has escaped the round of sex and is no longer returning to sex. gender anymore. 

e) Incomplete:  This frustration has completely stopped 9 qualities in the realms of sex, so no return to the realms of sex. This fruit consists of the following 11: 

1. The Central Committee: This frustration, after being in the realm of sex, has just died, is about to be born in the Realm of Lust, the intermediate state body, although still in the intermediate stage, has ceased except the deluded delights of the Lust Realm, so right on Nirvana. 

2. Birth: This frustration, after reaching Lustar Realms, soon on Nirvana; it is due to the diligence of the religious path that quickly. 

3. Huu ban: This frustration, after being born in the world of Sac, practice diligently forever without effort, but into Nirvana.  

4. Invisible ban: Frustrated on the contrary, after being born in the Realms of Sac, because of the delayed way of practice, though the result is slow to come, but finally to Nirvana.  

5. Lac Hue ban: This frustration, after being born in the Realms of Gender, again in turn being born in the Realms of Saving Glass is the highest in the new Saca realm of Nirvana. Heavenly Lust realms have fixed, there is wisdom, this frustrating use of Hue should be called "Lac Hue".  

6. Lac to discuss: This frustration, refuses to enter Nirvana in the Realms of Lust, but also wants to be reborn in the Realm of wealth, which is the higher realms of Formlessness, but into Nirvana. In this world of formlessness, there is only concentration without wisdom, the practitioner takes the intention to make fun, so called "Lac concentration". 

7. Transition: This frustration, after being in the Realms of Education, witnesses the Pomegranate and Nhat Lai, should be born in the Realms of Gender or Formless Realms, but the practitioner reincarnates the Realms of Cultivation and practices, witness the results of Imperfections and then straight to Nirvana. 

8. Present ban: This frustration, not being in the Realms of Gender, Infinite gender, nor need to be reincarnated, just practice for a period, always three results, then go straight from the Realms of Sex to Nirvana.  

9. Beliefs: This frustration, because the body is slightly flooded, should only believe in the teachings of others to practice, and realize the Incomplete result. 

10. Anticipation: This frustration, in contrast to the aforementioned Credit world, the evidence of the Completion is due to the clever basis, self-reliance on his wisdom only. 

11. Evidence: This frustration is extremely frustrating basis, evidence is Destroyed. 

The eleven frustrations mentioned above are not in a hierarchical order that practitioners must overcome. These are only 11 different cases in the imperfect result, due to the quickness of the mind, or the flood, due to the wishes or circumstances, the different xinxing. But anyway, it is also in the results of imperfections, there is no higher and lower, more and less, and are called  A la Han direction , that is heading towards the Arahantship. 

If from the first step is: Save the direction until the level of Incomplete, including all 18 steps, then called the Huu school. 

And the last nine steps below are the nine ranks A la Han results, also known as the level of learning. 

g) Arhat results:  This fruit consists of 9 levels, also called learning, meaning no need to learn anything more. 

1. French Prime Minister: Rotten means back. To return here does not mean regress to samsara, to be sentient beings, but only to return to the scene of meditation has been done, like the steps of the base of Han. 

2. The heads of the generals: The heads of the households are the protector. Prime Minister ie La Han level protection guarding meditation scene was, not lost. 

3. Death Minister: La aggrieved La Han is very boring in the world, afraid of losing his enlightenment, so he wants to go to Nirvana immediately. 

4. Resident General: Being frustrated Luo Han, the base can not cultivate nor come to the point of regression, just keep on being upset. 

5. The ability to attack General: Ability to attack is able to go forward. This is frustrating Luo Han has been bothered to meditate, but also tu to forever. 

6. General damage: This is frustrating La Han, the base of slow flood, but still keep not regressive, despite encountering obstacles. 

7. Hue liberation: This La Han drought has been annihilated definite, the mind is smuggled, freed the negativity, but not yet the obstacles of meditation scene. 

8. Pray for liberation: This is an arhat which has liberated both obstacle and obstacle; meaning no more being hindered by wisdom or meditation. 

9. Real rotten generals: This is frustrating La Han has a clever base, how many virtues of wisdom that we practice cannot regress or lose. 

In a nutshell, although the cultivator's result is divided up to 27 levels, it is a definitive split in each case, which is roughly the same as the enlightened one in the Versa. Indeed, if we compare the fruits of the two verses of Sentence and Honesty, we will see the following:  

RESPECTED	SUCCESSFUL
1. Tu da perfect (or Enter save)	1. Save the direction and Save the results
2. From Da jaw (or Nhut lai)	2. Future direction and Future results
3. A na function (or Non-hybrid)	3. Undirected and Inverted
4. Arhats (or Unborn, Uneducated)	4. Arhat (Unborn, Uneducated)

V. CONCLUSION 

The True Religion, like the Exalted Sentences, belongs to the sects of Theravada Buddhism. The basic tenets of the two religions are almost the same, except for the difference: Sentence Xa religious advocates "without mercy", while Honestly advocates "without mercy". Thus, Honesty has taken one step closer to Mahayana Buddhism. It is a point that proves that over time, the Hinayana and the Mahayana become closer together. With that momentum, we hope that, in the middle of the two great sect boundaries of Buddhism will be erased, only one noun, one religion for the whole world is Buddhism. 

That ambition, the current World Buddhist Association is trying to implement through many resolutions in the World Buddhist Congress. And in Vietnam that ambition was manifested in the early days of 1964, under the title of the Unified Buddhist Church of Vietnam. In this Church, the Mahayana and Hinayana sects vowed to join hands to promote the Vietnamese Buddhism every day more radiant. 

SUMMARY OF TEN TON 

We have had an overview of the ten religions. We have briefly understood the establishment, principles and basic teachings, the practices and the realization of the ten principles. Since these are general lessons, we cannot go into details, and the scope and duration do not allow us to say more. If any readers want to understand more clearly, look for the scriptures on the ten religions. 

Although briefly, through these lessons, we have been able to grasp the basic points of each religion. 

Each religion, although there is a principle of a separate policy, but every religion also worship Buddha Shakyamuni as a lord, and are based on his sutras that speak out and make religion. 

The difference is just the interpretation of the universe and the method of austerities. But there are basic points, then all religions recognize the same, that is: there is a transparent, magical foot inside the universe of the universe, which underlies all phenomena in this world. Beings do not receive that foot, because beings are ignorant; but with the austerities taught by Shakyamuni Buddha, we will be enlightened and incarnate with such legs. 

If the interpretation of the universal universe has many ways, and the method of spiritual practice has many paths, it is because of the tendency, level, inborn quality of living beings of irregularity; as well as in the method of treatment, depending on the severity and the severity of the disease, depending on the person. How to make patients healthy is a good physician. 

We are very unfortunate, in the period of the Dharma-ending period, without a good physician. But the explanation of the disease and the cures of great doctors are the teachings of the sects. Let's study for ourselves our illnesses, and choose any remedy appropriate to our illness and drink it for sure we will heal. . END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDA.( 3 TIMES ).WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.12/1/2020.
