Lesson 1

THE SOLUTION

Headings have eight words: "Kim Cang Bat Nha Ba la confidential business"; hereinafter referred to as the Kim Cang ”

 Scriptures : Sutras or teachings, spoken by Buddha or Bodhisattva. The word "Kinh" has many meanings, but it has three meanings as follows:

1. Soup  (literally) :  Yarn swept through a fabric. Thanks to the thread, the string of horizontal threads is threaded, to make a cloth. "Sutra" also means the synthesis of recording the words of Buddha or sage.

2. Usually:  No change. Buddha's truth does not change; whether Buddha past, present or future also said the same truth.

3. Hop  (Khế) :  The Buddha's Sutras are "in accord with the truths of the universe" and "in accord with the basic faculty of beings". Also a set of sutras, but depending on the level of each person, who understands high, who understands low. Although the understanding is high and low, but just like austerities are free from suffering samsara, no mercy on anyone. Buddhist Sutra has such characteristics, so called "Business Contract"

KIM CANG: The  word "Cang", the Southern people read it as "cang", the North people read it as "outline". There are two meanings:

1. Ngoc Diamond:  Belongs to a very valuable mineral. Tanh very hard and very sharp, was not vandalized, on the contrary also sabotaged objects.

2. Kim Cang:  the tough substance in metal, ie "steel", also belongs to the type of mineral. It is also very sharp, and is not damaged by objects, on the contrary, it also destroys objects, such as iron drills, stone chisels, etc., thanks to the sharp new steel.

The "tough" substance of the "Diamond Jewel" or of "steel", has been in existence ever since, not through training or through external objects.

Buddha used the "diamond pearl" or "hard steel", for example "the wisdom of Bat Nha" is very precious and saün is in everyone  (ie the Buddha nature of every living being).

Prajna wisdom, not by virtue of practicing, or through external conditions, is newly practiced. It has saün in every being from beginningless now. Even if it is not in the mundane position, it does not diminish, nor does it result. It has not been devastated by negativity, but has destroyed all disturbing ignorance so far. It finally and easily broke, like the wind blowing clouds, the sun shone the fog. Therefore nr6n called "Bat Nha Ba La honey" Wisdom ultimately.

BAND NHAT  Translation of the Sanskrit word "Prajnà". Because China does not have the word translated for proportion, the only vowel translation is "Bat Nha".

Bat Nha has many profound meanings, but it has the following meanings:

1. Far separation:  far from the ignorance, defilement accept;

2. Ming:  Bright, not dim

3. Hue:  Clarity

4. Pure:  clean without pollution

5. Tri:  Smoothly

6. Wisdom:  Clarity smoothly

Bat Nha has so many meanings, if taking one meaning is not very correct, so the translators only have the vowel Sanskrit  (Bat Nha) .

However, in the six meanings above, if compared and considered, then we can use the temporary meaning "wisdom"; because the meaning "wisdom" is somewhat clearer and more accurate.

But it is necessary to select carefully, leaving out the following wisdoms, in accordance with the meaning of "Bat Nha":

1. World wisdom:  In the world, broad learners see far away, cleverly clever, clever in browsing, or good in every way, people call it "wise". But that is the wisdom of the mundane world, not the "wisdom of Bat Nha".

2. The pagan wisdom:  They meditate in meditation  (see the article "Meditation" in the map of Buddhist practice) for a  long time and have wisdom, know the future of the future, the miraculous transformations are many, many legal things strange. But that wisdom is wicked wisdom, not "Bat Nha wisdom".

3. the wisdom of the Second Mantra  Goods of Pratyekabuddha and Pratyekabuddha, practiced by the Four Noble Truths and Thap Nhi Nhon Duyen. They have reborn from samsara, are self-sufficient and have knowledge of the past, present and future. But that wisdom belongs to the Hinayana wisdom, only sees about "self-feet not like" (heavenly nature) , not yet seen "no-feet-like dharma", so it is not Bat Nha wisdom.

Except for the three types of wisdom above, only the wisdom of Buddha or Mahayana Bodhisattva, must be the wisdom of Bat Nha.

The use of the wisdom of Bat Nha, as the sun shines on the clouds of ignorance of ignorance, acceptance: self, dhamma, four generals  (self, compassion, sentient beings, false feeling) , yes, no, it is not, isn't it? etc ... Because of that, the wisdom of Bat Nha, which reflects all the dharma, leaves the false appearance, which appears true. The true generals of the dharmas appeared, that is, the feet, the feet, or the truths of the universe, appear.

Bat Nha wisdom, which has the function of a boat to deliver sentient beings in the end, from one side of the mundane delusion of the mundane, to the other side of the enlightened enlightenment of the Buddhas, so it is called " Bat Nha boat ”.

Want to distinguish the wisdom of Bat Nha other than the wisdom of ordinary people, pagans and Hinayana, we should translate the meaning of the word "Bat Nha" as follows:

1. Buddha Wisdom

2. The ultimate wisdom ( Bat Nha Ba La)

3. Wisdom of Bat Nha  (using both Sanskrit and Chinese characters)

BUDDHISM:  "the three perfections" or "the three perfections" is the translation of the Sanskrit word "Paramita". There are two meanings:

1. Unique defamatory: Go  to the other shore. The wisdom of the Bat Nha has the function of bringing sentient beings from the shores of the delusion of this lady, and through the enlightened enlightenment of the Buddhas on the other side, it should be called "Bat Nha Ba la honey".

2. Rescuing fullness:  utterly final. According to the proverb in India, what is done by the human being, when it is completely fulfilled, is called "Paramita". Bat Nha wisdom is the type of wisdom that has finally perfected, so called "Bat Nha Ba la la honey".

In summary, "Kim Cang Bat Nha Ba la confidential business" is a business talking about "Buddha's Wisdom" (Bat Nha) , the type of Wisdom was ultimately perfect  (the three la honey) . This wisdom has the power taken from the terminals practitioners of bondage deluded beings, to the banks of enlightenment of the Buddhas  (original shore) .

The wisdom of the Buddha  (Bat Nha) is  very precious (like a pearl of a diamond), it is both tough and sharp  (like steel) , can destroy mountains of hopeless attachment (falls, dharma or four generals) and cut down the forest root. negativity karma, from countless lifetimes up to now, without being damaged; Like diamond or steel, it can split very hard objects, such as iron, stone, etc., without damage.

***

Buddha said "Dai Bat Nha" in 4 places, 16 congregations including 600 volumes, in 22 years to finish  (second year of the second Bat Nha talks) . In summary, the Great Bat Nha Sutta is the "Kim Cann Bat Nha Ba la honey" sutta.

TALKING ABOUT THE LIST, CHARACTERISTICS, PURPOSE, AND TILES OF THIS KINH:

Danh:  This sutta takes "example"  (Kim Cang)  and "Dharma"  (Bat Nha Ba la la)  and names it. General:  This Kinh takes "Mahayana" as the minister.

Hidden:  This sutta takes "True General" as a form.

Use:  The use of this business is to break the attachments  (egos, dhammas) that  all enchanting delights end.

Mandate:  This business takes the "Invisible" (not abiding anywhere)  as a guideline.

CONCLUDE

Just read up to the title, we have enjoyed it! Headings only eight words, which clearly say the content and principles of the sutras: Buddha taught all sentient beings saün has wisdom Bat Nha  (Wisdom Buddha)  from beginningless to present. The wisdom of Prajna  (the Buddha of enlightenment or the ability to become a Buddha)  is very precious and sharp, like diamond or steel. The wisdom of Prajna has come from beginningless now and has not been damaged by anything; on the contrary, it also destroyed the mountain of Nga Chieng, Nhon of generals, beings of the generals and Tho pseudo-generals, or the mountain of Ngã mortgage, legal attachment; In general, it is to break the ignorance from beginninglessness to now. It completely and completely breaks down  (Paramita)  and easily, like the sun shines down, the wind blows clouds.

The wisdom of the Bat Nha has the function of a boat, bringing practitioners from this concrete whirlwind of delusion to the delusion of sentient beings, passing through the river of misery and suffering, to the other side Enlightened enlightenment of the Buddhas, ie insane "  (La la confidential) . Because of that, he was called "Bat Nha Boat".

We have already had "Prajna Wisdom" or "Buddha Wisdom", then we will become Buddhas.

NAME TRANSLATOR

Buddha Shakyamuni said this sutta at the monastery of the Venerable Master in the garden of Crown Prince Ky Da, in Xa Ve.

He Ananda set. The Tripitaka Dharma Master named Ma Ma La translates from Sanskrit (Indian) through Chinese literature.

TAM LAWYER: The  Tripitaka is three treasures; Because of the supreme power of the Buddha Dharma, it should be called "Tang".

1. Sutta Pitaka:  Copy the words of the Buddha or the words of the Bodhisattvas speak, when certified by the Buddha.

2. Vinaya:  copy the precepts and rules  (discipline)  of the seven of them  (Bhikkhu, Bhikkhuni ni, Sa di, sa di ni, Awakening and Superior Lady rules, Superior she di).

3. Abhidharma Tripitaka:  copy the Chief Justice's comments, distinguish the aspirations of the Bodhisattvas and the Patriarchs.

A teacher who teaches "scriptures" is called a "Wizard"

A "law" teacher is called a "lawyer"

A teacher who teaches "treatise" is called a "thesis"

Mr. Cuu Ma La Cross, who understood all three organs and taught the Sutras, Laws, and Abhidharma, should call Him "The Tripitaka Dharma Master"  (the Dharma Master with the three organs).

COLLECTED MASTER (Kumàralabdha): The  name of a prominent Dharma Wizard in India; Chinese side means "Dong Tho", meaning that the shaman, the age is "aged", and the virtue is "aging" (life).

This sutta has many translations, but the translation of Lord Ciu Ma La Cross is very clear and clear, so it is more popular.

A. PART ORDER

(OPENING OF BITCHES)

I heard something like this: One day, in Xa Vi, Buddha and 1250 monks, both were in the Vihara Vihara, in the garden of Prince Ky Da and the Chief of the Lonely Level.

Around the time of the boys, the Buddha and the monks increase their robes, bringing the bowls to the citadel, according to the qifu gangui class.

After alms-eating, Phất and they increase their fields to the Vihara to become a son. After the completion of the son's life, the Buddha arranged the robes, put away the bowl, and washed the feet, and spread the coordinates of the instrument, sitting still.

THE SOLUTION

These are normal and very simple gestures; but it has created a wonderful picture, expressing the spirit of "immeasurable liberation" to open the door for the Buddha to say the Bat Nha Sutta.

Let's concentrate, read carefully again, the following sentences, we will clearly see the spirit of Bat Nha  (liberation of the universe).

“It's almost time for boys, Buddha and them to increase

“All covered with y, brought the bowl to the city

“Xa Xa, according to the qifu gangui class.

“Begging alms, Phất and they increase

"Copper to the Vihara to be a son. After

"After finishing life, Buddha arranged medicine and put the vase

“Bowl and foot wash, then spread the sitting instrument

”Quiet.

Because enlightenment is "Bat Nha freed", covering all things, so Nhon has to say two sentences:

Thanh thanh pure architecture, total Chon like

Flourishing flowers, non-Bat Nha.

Translate:

Smooth, green bamboo, showing feet as.

Opening yellow flowers, presenting Bat Nha.

Mr. Thai corrupted magician preached:

"The Buddha said this sutta to show that in every living being, there are enough beings of Kim Cang Bat Nha. The magic of Kim Cang Bat Nha is to make the practitioner when practicing Lucifer, not abiding by the generals.

People have met Kim Cang Bat Nha then, towards the dharma and everything is smoothly and without hindrance; normal daily activities are Dharma, that is just normal Dharma until walking, standing, lying, sitting etc ... are also Dharma. The miraculous transformations are the supreme magic of the Buddhas, but the joys, joys, anger, and hatred are also the means or skill of the Buddha's teachings.

On the contrary, if the person has not entered "Kim Cang Bat Nha", even if he has the supernatural power to transform the island, then it is also the evil of the pagan ghost, even if he meditates for many years, he will only enjoy the smuggled and fruitful possession of the realms of nature, only heaven; a newspaper industry all gone, still returning to life in samsara. You should think carefully!

Kim Cang Bat Nha, in each person is sufficient and throughout the legal world. It is neither in nor out, neither in the center nor nor in and out; cannot think and cannot stand. If a person perseveres in long-term practice, there will be a natural day of enlightenment. On the contrary, if the extroverts seek, accept that the Buddha has miraculous transformation, etc., there must be enough, to be Buddha. People who accept such things, cannot distinguish and simplify what the Dharma is and what is the pagan. Alas! If a glass is wrong, thousands of miles away! You have to be careful, very careful! ”

(KIM BRING FAIR)
