3 - Gotama Buddha passed away nirvana.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.
After attaining enlightenment, the Buddha, the Enlightened One, the Buddha preached that the sentient beings of the Dharma, the sentient beings, have the predestined conditions to be so subtle. His theory texts Zhuan Falun ( Dhamma-cakkappavattanasutta ) for the first time on the fifteenth day of the 6th lunar month, two months after becoming the Buddha, to international of the group 5 Bhikkhu: He Kondanna he Vappa he Bhaddiya he Mahānāma and Mr. Assaji . After listening to that sutta, Koṇḍañña was the first bhikkhu to realize the truth of the Four Noble Truths, to attain the Import of the Noble Truths, to Save the Holy Fruits, and to Nirvana, to become the first Noble One in the Dharma. of Gotama Buddha, together with 180 million gods and Brahmins, also realized the truth of the Four Noble Truths, attaining the Noble Path, the Resultant Fruits and Nirvana, according to the virtues of the three paramitas.
Every day and night, the Buddha is always diligent in doing the 5 tasks called Buddhakicca [1]: The fate of the Buddha .
The Five Missions of Buddha:
Fate the morning before midday ( purebhattakicca ). Mission
after midday ( pacchābhattakicca ). Fate
of the first night watch ( paṭhamayāma ).
Fate the night watch ( majjhimayāma ). Fate
last night watch ( pacchimayāma ).
after midday ( pacchābhattakicca ). Fate
of the first night watch ( paṭhamayāma ).
Fate the night watch ( majjhimayāma ). Fate
last night watch ( pacchimayāma ).
1- What is the fate of the morning before midday?
Every morning until the time to beg for alms, sometimes the Buddha dwells alms on his own to save some sentient beings, sometimes the Buddha dwells with monks and monks go into the neighborhood, into the capital to beg for alms. When the Buddha was finished, the number of people invited the Buddha to lecture, some asked to take refuge in the Three Precepts, and the Buddha asked for permission to become a monk. to the temple.
2- What is the fate after midday?
When the Buddha came back to the temple, washed his feet, and stood on the podium, he advised the monks:
" Bhikkhave appamādena sampādetha,
Dullabho Buddhuppādo lokasmiṃ,
Dullabho manussattapaṭilābho,
Dullabhā khaṇasampatti,
Dullabhā pabbajjā,
Dullabhaṃ saddhammassavanaṃ " [2]
Dullabho Buddhuppādo lokasmiṃ,
Dullabho manussattapaṭilābho,
Dullabhā khaṇasampatti,
Dullabhā pabbajjā,
Dullabhaṃ saddhammassavanaṃ " [2]
" Bhikkhus, you should try to complete all the duties of the Four Noble Truths, by not diligent Dharma, to practice the four foundations of mindfulness .
Buddha appears in the world is a difficult thing .
Being born a human being is a difficult thing.
Having the opportunity to practice noble conduct is a difficult thing.
Being ordained to become a Bhikkhu is a difficult thing.
To hear the Dharma is a difficult thing . ”
Being born a human being is a difficult thing.
Having the opportunity to practice noble conduct is a difficult thing.
Being ordained to become a Bhikkhu is a difficult thing.
To hear the Dharma is a difficult thing . ”
Those are hard things to get. Therefore, the Buddha daily advised the Bhikkhu khưu should not be easy to bear.
After that, the Buddha entered the Gandhakuṭi cup , and the bhikkhus each stayed in one place to practice meditation, or to practice wisdom meditation.
3- Fate night watch like?
Soup : The Buddha instructed monks, with the number of bhikkhus, to ask about the dharma and the law; the number of Bhikkhu khưu would like to practice meditation, meditation practice wisdom; the number of monks listening to the dharma. Through the first watch, Bhikkhu khưu pay homage to the Buddha to his accommodation.
4- What is the duty of night watch?
Centering : The Buddha allowed devas and Brahma in 10,000 worlds to come to him, pay homage to stand in a reasonable place, and ask the dharma. The Buddha explained the questions of the devas, finished the celestial sphere, caged the center, the devas, worshiped the Buddha, returned to his realm.
5- What is the fate of night watch?
The Buddha divided the last soup into three times:
First time : Buddha went on a business trip.
Middle : The Buddha dwells on Gandhakuṭi cup to rest, lay on his right side, mindfulness, awakening wisdom, wake up time.
Last : The Buddha entered great compassion meditation, when discharging meditation, contemplating sentient beings in 10,000 worlds with Buddha Eye, considering which sentient beings have had a good affinity with Him, or have ever created pàrami from Buddhas of the past to this present life, capable of realizing the truth of the Four Noble Truths, attaining the Four Paths, the Four Fruits and Nirvana, He comes to save that sentient being, whether near or far, in this world or the other world.
Sometimes the Buddha dwells alone to find such sentient beings:
-The Buddha alone came to the forest where the killer bandit's hide-out was nicknamed Aulgulimāla ( murderer cuts his fingers to make a necklace ), so that his sacrifice of Aṅgulimāla would become Arahán .
-The Buddha alone came to the castle of xoaavaka Davaka in the land of Āḷavī, xoaavaka xoaavaka had an extraordinary miracle, very cruel, more powerful than the Evil God. The Buddha sacrificed the Abhidharma Āḷavaka to become the Noble One .
-The Buddha alone ascended to the Brahma realm so that the Brahma Baka had deluded wrong views, became the Brahma with right view, etc.
Sometimes the Buddha dwells with Bhikkhu khưu traveling everywhere to save sentient beings so that they can have good conditions.
Every day, every night the Buddha performed the full five part in 45 years until the last moment passed away Nirvana.
On the full moon day of April, the Buddha and the Bhikkhu khưu dwell to the forest of Sālā of Kusinārā of the Malla Royal Family, to sacrifice to the Taoist Subhadda , the last Thanh Van disciple of Buddha, because besides him, no Is there any one who can afford to be Subhadda?
Indeed, at the end of the night watch, the Taoist Subhadda When he came to the Buddha, he asked questions about the questions that no Samaritan and Brahma could answer, making the Taoist Subhadda satisfied and satisfied. The Taoist Subhadda asked the Buddha, but he did not directly answer those questions, but he only taught the eightfold Path in his teachings. The Taoist Subhadda generated pure kindness, was extremely happy with the Buddha's teachings, asking the Buddha for permission to leave home in his teachings. Not long after being ordained as a Bhikkhu, Subhadda practiced the meditation of wisdom leading to the realization of the truth of the Four Noble Truths, attaining the four Noble Truths, the Four Fruits and Nirvana, eliminating all defilements and all craving. AI, became arahant before the Buddha passed away to Nirvana. Venerable Subhadda is the last disciple of Gotama Buddha.
Finally, the Buddha called Venerable andananda advised:
-Nanda, among you, if anyone thinks : "The Buddha passed away Nirvana already, we no longer have the Buddha ( natthi no satthā )", you should not think so.
The Buddha taught that:
" Yo vo Ānanda, mayā dhammo ca vinayo ca desito paññatto, so vo mamaccayena satthā ... " [3].
" Hey andananda, the dharma that Tathagata has said, what law the Tathagata has instituted; When the Tathagata passed away, it is the true Dharma, that law is your Guru . "
In the commentary on the Mahāparinibhānasutta sutta explains that:
Dhammo : The Dharma consists of the entire Sutta Pitaka and the Abhidharma Pitaka.
Vinayo : The Law is the entire Vinaya.
Vinayo : The Law is the entire Vinaya.
The teachings of the Buddha have been preaching for 45 years, from the attainment of the Noble Enlightenment Form until the Buddha passed away to Nirvana, which was assembled into the Tripitaka: the Vinaya, the Sutta Pitaka, and the Abhidhamma France consists of 84,000 disciplines divided as follows:
- Vinaya consists of 21,000 disciplines.
- The Sutta Pitaka contains 21,000 disciplines.
- Abhidhamma has 42,000 disciplines.
- The Sutta Pitaka contains 21,000 disciplines.
- Abhidhamma has 42,000 disciplines.
The Buddha explained that:
“ Iti imāni caturāsitidhammakkhandhasahassāni tiṭṭhanti, ahaṃ ekova parinibbayāmi. Ahañca kho dāni ekakova ovadāmi anusāsāmi; mayi parinibbute imāni caturāsitidhammakkhandhasahassāni tumhe ovadissanti anusāsissanti… ”
“ Thus, 84,000 disciplines exist, only Tathagata alone passes away Nirvana. In fact, now the Tathagata alone teaches you, teaches you; When Tathagata passed away Nirvana, then there are 84,000 disciplines that are "the Buddha" will teach you, will teach you . "
Through the explanation that the Buddha himself explained to the disciples, the disciples understood clearly: So after the Buddha passed away to Nirvana, we no longer have the Guru; in fact, there are 84,000 disciplines that are our Guru, each of which is a guru capable of leading, teaching us to attain the realization of the truth of the Four Noble Truths, to attain the Noble Truth, Fruit and Nirvana, freed suffering of birth and death in three of the four species.
Finally, at the last moment, the Blessed One once again reminded his disciples of the final words:
" Handa dani bhikkhave āmantayami vo,
Vayadhammā saṅkhārā, appamādena sampādetha "
Vayadhammā saṅkhārā, appamādena sampādetha "
" Bhikkhu khưu, Bhikkhu khưu ni, near the south, near the female, now Tathagata reminds, advises the last time that :
The compounded vi (skandha) has the cessation of destruction, you should try to diligently complete all the four Noble Truths, by not being able to bear the Dharma, practicing the four foundations of mindfulness .
The Blessed One just finished the sentence: " Appamādena sampādetha " since then no longer teaches another sentence.
Therefore, the sentence: " Handa dāni bhikkhave ... appamādena sampādetha ", called: Pacchimabuddhavacana : Buddha's last proverb .
After ending the last teaching with the sentence: " Appamādena sampādetha ".
- Buddha entered the first meditation, then discharge the first meditation.

At that moment, the earth shuddered to move.
It is one of the eight phenomena that often happen to Buddhas.
The Buddha has the name of Gotama Buddha as the Most High, Greatest, Most Highest in the entire world of sentient beings, who has passed away Nirvana.
All sentient beings must have a death, not all but one. The Buddha and the Saints of Arahán did not call death (death) but called passing away Nirvana , ending samsara in three of the four species; Because, the Buddha and the Arahant Buddhas have eradicated all craving without remainder, so there is no craving to guide karma for rebirth in the next life. Still other beings, whether saints enter Luu Luu, ranks of Nhat Lai, Saints Immortal, still craving is human suffering, leading rebirth in the afterlife, continuing samsara in the three realms.
Although the Buddha passed away Nirvana 2,550 years ago, his teachings are still fully complete with 84,000 disciplines to this day.
In order to be close to the Buddha, each of us strives to study Buddhism and practice Buddhism.; according to each person's ability, for Buddhism to remain in the heart of every Buddhist. Those who have Buddhism in their hearts, they rely on the Buddha, on the Dharma, on the Buddha, on the noble Triple Jewel, so that they can become human noble and to bring benefits, evolution, lasting peace for themselves in the present life and future lives; Especially, it also makes good conditions on the path to the liberation of life and death in samsara of the four species. At the same time preserving and maintaining Buddhism is enduring in the world, until the end of its 5,000-year Buddhist life, in order to bring long-term benefits, evolution, and peace to all sentient beings, especially the devas and humanity.
Each Buddha, the Right Enlightenment Buddha, appears on the earth, capable of offering a quantity of about 24 a-rising period [4] 600 million and 100 thousand sentient beings were liberated from the sea of life and death in samsara.
Gotama Buddha has a life span of 80 years, the sermon of sentient beings for 45 years, not enough for the number of 24 a-million-period-period 600 million and 100 thousand sentient beings. So, when Gotama Buddha passed away Nirvana, the teachings were handed down for up to 5,000 years in the human realm, to continue the sacrifice of sentient beings for that amount.
Buddhist life expectancy 5,000 years under 5 periods. According to the Commentary on the branch of the Sutta, the Gotamisutta Sutta explains as follows:
First 1,000 years : Thanh Van rows of meditation practice have the ability to attain the rank of Saint Arahán, along with the Four Types of Analytical Wisdom and Luc Thong .
The second 1,000 years : The Thanh Van rows of meditation practice have the ability to attain the rank of Saint Arahán , the rupture of all afflictions ( sukkhavipassaka ) ( without the levels of meditation ).
The third 1,000 years : Thanh Van rows of meditation practice have the ability to attain the rank of Saint Immortal.
1,000th fourth year : Thanh Van rows of meditation practice have the ability to attain the rank of Thanh Nhat Lai .
The fifth year : Thanh Van rows of meditation practice have the ability to attain the rank of Thanh Nhap .
And then, practitioners who practice wisdom meditation are no longer able to attain the rank of a Saint, but can only cultivate the perfections of pàrami to be able to attain them in future lives.
Based on the above Commentary, this year the Buddhist calendar is 2,550, we Buddhists are in the third 1,000 years, the remaining Buddhist life is 2,450 years. In this period, we should have faith and hope in Gotama Buddha's teachings, and be able to save each of us from the sea of birth and death in samsara, which is the path to liberation of suffering. That is the practice of insight meditation according to the Middle Way .
The Middle Way practice practice has 2 stages:
- The first stage: Practicing the four foundations of mindfulness: Mindfulness of body, mindfulness, mindfulness, and mindfulness , that is the first part of the Middle Way , also called mindfulness in the Noble Eightfold Path. Mindfulness has four objects: body, feeling, mind, and dharma, also called rupa and nama , while rupa and nama are objects of insight meditation. Therefore, the practice of satipatthana or the practice of insight meditation have the same object, just different nouns.
- The final stage: Practicing the four foundations of mindfulness or practicing the wisdom meditation leads to the realization of the truths of the Four Noble Truths, witnessing the four Noble Truths, the Four Noble Truths and Nirvana, eliminating all defilements and craving no leftover. Saint Dao Tam and Tam Qua Tam have enough Eightfold Path (right view, right view, right speech, right speech, right livelihood, right livelihood, right mindfulness, mindfulness and right concentration) . It is the last Middle Way practice , completing the Four Noble Truths.
If the practitioner has the complete three paramitas to practice the wisdom of meditation according to the Middle Way, it can lead to the realization of the truth of the Four Noble Truths, to attain the Noble Path, the Holy Fruits and Nirvana, to become a Noble One, what a noble happiness!
If a practitioner practices wisdom meditation, but he has not attained the Noble Paths or Holy Fruits, then it is also a good opportunity for him to increase the attainment of the dharmas, in order to attain the Noble Paths, Saints and Nirvana in the future. That is also what noble happiness!
In fact, what is certain is that we do not have anyone capable of knowing whether we have the complete pàrami or not. If we have enough pàrami without practicing meditation, we cannot attain the Noble Path - Saints and Nibbāna. Thus, I lost a good opportunity, in a good life to meet Buddhism, how regrettable it is!
We should keep in mind the last teaching of the Buddha, the last sentence:
" Appamādena sampādetha ".
" You should try to diligently complete all the four Noble Truths in a way that cannot be carried away, to practice the four foundations of mindfulness ."
In the Four Noble Truths, each God has a unique duty:
The Noble Truth of Suffering : It is the grasping of the five aggregates ; or rupa, the nomenclature in the three realms is the dharma that practitioners should know, they already know.
The Noble Truth of Suffering ( The Noble Truth of Suffering ): It is craving which is the dharma that the practitioner is supposed to destroy, then he has finished.
Kill the Noble Truth of Suffering ( Kill the Noble Truth ): It is Nirvana which is the dharma that one should be enlightened to, it is already realized.
The practice of eradicating the Noble Truth of Suffering ( the Noble Truth ): It is the Noble Eightfold Path which is the one where practitioners are supposed to practice, so they have finished practicing.
Thus called the completion of all the four Holy Roman Empire.
All parts of the Four Noble Truths are completed by law not to chase , always mindful and alert intelligence. That is the practice of satipa hoặc xứhāna or the practice of insight meditation according to the Middle Way, because only this practice can lead to the fulfillment of all the four Noble Truths.
France is not easy to bear like?
To understand the legal not easy to bear ( appamāda ), you should understand the legal easy to bear ( pamāda ) first.
France is easy to bear ( pamāda ) that is French forgetfulness, selflessness, no memory, no intellect knows you.
France not to chase ( appamada ) that mindfulness : Mindfulness body, thoughts feelings, thoughts, mindfulness legal and intellectual awakening clear, knew the true nature of these measures, leading to the realization of the truth Four Noble Truths, stock acquisition of 4 Holy Paths, 4 Holy Fruits and Nirvana, eradicating all defilements, all craving with no remainder, completing all four Noble Truths.
The Buddha taught not to be easy to bear and that to bear:
Meaning:
France is not easy to bear, is often mindful,
Is the way to nirvana immortal.
And the legal duo, often forgetful,
Is the cycle of birth and death.
Beings that are not easy to
bear , They die as well as not dead.
Those sentient beings,
They are alive as well as dead!
Is the way to nirvana immortal.
And the legal duo, often forgetful,
Is the cycle of birth and death.
Beings that are not easy to
bear , They die as well as not dead.
Those sentient beings,
They are alive as well as dead!
Pūjā: Offering
In the Sutta branch, the Buddha taught two ways of offering:
- Āmisapūjā : Offering with various things.
- Dhammapūjā : Offering with the Dharma of good deeds.
Of these two offerings, the Buddha taught, making offerings by practicing the precepts of concentration-wisdom, which is the most noble.
In the last days of the Buddha's passing away, he again emphasized the offering by practicing , especially the practice of insight meditation . He taught the offering by means of things not called noble offerings to him, but only offerings by the practice of insight meditation were truly noble offerings to him.
When listening to the Buddha instructing him about to pass away Nirvana, there are a number of bhikkhus who are still very touched and cannot stop crying, while the Arahans have the mind ( saṃvega ): the five aggregates are impermanent arise and disappear, without exception . So, bhikkhus often come to Buddha, listen to his teachings.
* In the case of Venerable Attadattha thought: “ The Buddha is about to die on Nirvana and we still have craving for it, so we should try to diligently practice the wisdom meditation to attain the rank of Arahant , while Buddha is still on earth . "
After thinking, he was alone in a solitary place, practicing wisdom meditation, not contacting other bhikkhus. Although a bhikkhu came to him, encouraging him to come to Buddha, he still did not speak. The Bhikkhu khưu did not know his thoughts should think that he did not have the love of the Buddha.
The bhikkhus came to pay homage to the Buddha, saying,
-Bhikkhu khưu Attadattha has no respect for the Blessed One .
Buddha commanded the Bhikkhu khưu Attadattha to come to him. The Buddha asked Bhikkhu Attadattha that:
- Hey Attadattha, how do you think that was?
Bhikkhu Attadattha pay homage to the Blessed One and said to him,
- Dear Venerable, I heard that the Venerable is about to die on Nirvana, so I try to practice the wisdom meditation to attain the rank of Arahant, while the Blessed One is still on the earth. Bach himself.
Buddha praised: " Sādhu!" “Heal instead! "And then told the monks,
“ Bhikkhave yassa mayi sineho atthi, tena Atthadatthena viya bhavituṃ vaṭṭati. Na hi gandhādīhi pujentā maṃ pūjenti, dhammānudhammapaṭipattiyā pana maṃ pūjenti. Tasmā aññenapi Attadattha-sadiseneva bhavitabbaṃ ” [6]
" Bhikkhu khưu, Thanh Van disciples who have the love of Tathagata, Thanh Van disciples should follow the example of Attadattha. Indeed, people who make offerings by things like aromatic objects, corolla, etc. are not offerings to the Tathagata; the Thanh Van disciples made offerings by practicing the practice of insight meditation, leading to the attainment of the nine transcendental Dharmas, which is truly noble to the Tathagata. Therefore, other Thanh Van disciples should follow the example of Attadattha ”.
The Buddha taught verse that:
No matter how many other person's interests are, Do not reduce your interests.
Wisdom knows its benefits,
So effort to achieve it.
Comment: Attadattha : The benefit that the Buddha taught was not the benefits of wealth in the three realms, but the benefits of the nine transcendental realms of dharma, namely, the Four Paths, the Four Noble Truths and Nirvana.
Listening to the verse, Mr. Venerable Attadattha immediately attained the rank of Saint Arahán, and the other bhikkhus also benefited according to their pàrami.
* The same situation as the above, Venerable Tissa heard the Buddha about to pass away Nirvana, He thought: " The Buddha is about to pass away Nirvana, we still crave not kill the end. So we should try diligently to practice the wisdom meditation to attain the rank of Arahant when the Buddha is still on the earth . ”
After thinking, he was alone in a lonely place, practicing 4 majesty, standing, sitting and lying. Although the bhikkhus came to see him, encouraging him to come to the Buddha, he remained silent and did not say a word to them.
The bhikkhus came to pay homage to the Blessed One, saying,
“Bhante, tumhesu Tissattherassa sineho natthi”
- Dear Venerable, Venerable Tissa has no respect for the Blessed One.
The Blessed One commanded Venerable Tissa to come to Him. The Blessed One asked the Bhikkhu khưu Tissa: "Kasmā Tissa evaṃ akāsi?"
- Hey Tissa, why did you do that?
Venerable Tissa told the Blessed One exactly what he thought.
The Blessed One praised, " Sādhu!" “Heal instead! "And then told the monks,
" Bhikkhave, may sineho Tissasadisova hotu, gandhamālādīhi pūjaṃ karontāpi ṅeva ma pjjenti, dhammānudhammaṃ paṭipajjamānāyeva pana ma pjjenti " [8]
" Bhikkhus, you reverence in Tathagata, so follow the example of Tissa. Those who make offerings of aromas, garlands, etc., are not offerings to Tathagata, only the Thanh Van disciples who are practicing the wisdom meditation leading to the attainment of the four Paths, 4 Fruits and Nirvana. It is truly an offering to the Tathagata in the most noble way. ”
* Case similar to the above, His Holiness Dhammārāma heard the Buddha about to pass away Nirvana. He thought, " The Buddha is going to pass away to Nirvana. We still have craving for it. So we should try diligently to practice the wisdom meditation to attain the rank of Arahant when the Buddha is still on the earth . ”
Venerable Dhammārāma was alone in the solitude thinking about the teachings of the Buddha, and then practicing insight meditation; He did not contact, did not talk to other bhikkhus. The Bhikkhu khưu then came to pay homage to the Buddha and said, "Bhante, Dhammārāmassa tumhesu sinehamattampi natthi".
- Dear Lord Buddha, Bhikkhu Dhammārāma does not have any respect for the Buddha .
The Blessed One gave instructions to Venerable Dhammārāma to come to Him. The Blessed One asked the bhikkhu Dhammārāma, "Saccaṃ kira tvaṃ evaṃ karosi?"
Hey Dhammārāma, did you really treat the Bhikkhu khưu like that?
Venerable Dhammārāma told the Blessed One: "Saccaṃ, Bhante".
- Dear Reverend Lord, the truth is so true. Bach himself.
Hey Dhammārāma, how do you think that is treated?
- Dear Reverend Lord, I heard that the Buddha was about to pass away to Nirvana. Ton is still in the world.
The Blessed One praised, " Sādhu!" “Heal instead! "And then told the monks,
“ Bhikkhave, aññenāpi mother sinehavantena Bhikkhunā nāma, Dhammārāma-sadiseneva bhavitabbaṃ. And hi mayhaṃ mālāgandhādīhi pūjaṃ karontā ma'am pūjaṃ karonti nāma, dhammānudhammaṃ on the jjantāyeva over maṃ pūjenti nāma " [9]
"The Bhikkhu khưu, Bhikkhu khưu would love the place of Tathagata, the Bhikkhu khưu should follow the example of Dhammārāma. People who make offerings to Tathagata with aromatic objects, corolla, etc. are not offerings to Tathagata. The Thanh Van disciples are practicing the practice of insight meditation leading to the attainment of the nine transcendental realms of Dharma, which are truly called offerings to the Tathagata . ”
Later, the Buddha taught that verse:
Any bhikkhu who desires to practice the wisdom of meditation, He is
absorbed in the practice of the wisdom of meditation
, thinks deeply of the Dharma,
Mindfulness following the practices, The
bhikkhu does not destroy
the Dharma long live.
absorbed in the practice of the wisdom of meditation
, thinks deeply of the Dharma,
Mindfulness following the practices, The
bhikkhu does not destroy
the Dharma long live.
Saddhamma : The Dharma taught by the Buddha in this verse is 37 dharma that generates 4 Noble Paths, 4 Holy Fruits, and 9 Dharma Realms.
* 37 legal arises 4 Saints, 4 Saints and Nirvana are:
4 measures of mindfulness ( satipaṭṭhāna )
4 legal right effort ( sammappadhana )
4 legal achievements ( iddhipada )
5 Initiatives ( indriya )

7 Legal Enlightenment ( bojjhanga )

4 Holy Paths ( Ariyamagga )
4 Holy Fruits ( Ariyaphala )
1 Nirvana ( Nibbāna )
4 Holy Fruits ( Ariyaphala )
1 Nirvana ( Nibbāna )
After listening to the verse finished, His Holiness Dhammārāma attained the rank of Saint Arahán, and the Bhikkhu khưu were also benefited according to the capacity of their three-la-secret.
Offering Duong Duc The Ton
In the afternoon of the full moon day of the fourth month (lunar calendar) the Blessed One came to the forest of Sālā of Kusinārā, the resting place of the Malla Royal Family, and he told Venerable andananda:
-This Ānanda, you should put the bed turned north, between two trees of Sālā (song long life).
At that time, the Blessed One was lying on his right side, his head turned to the North, his legs were staggered, his right leg was straight, his left leg was slightly bent, his legs were not equal (the posture of passing away Nirvana). The Blessed One has mindfulness of wisdom awareness without time to discharge.
Two Sālā trees bloom in out of season, the flowers fall to the body of the Blessed One, to make offerings to him. The flowers in the forest are in full bloom, the flowers of the sky, the scent of the sky, the fragrance of the sky, ... from the heavens falling like rain, to make offerings to the Blessed One. The heavenly music from the heavens also rose, to make offerings to the Blessed One. At that time, the Buddha told Venerable andananda:
“... So, Ananda, et al. Yo kho Ananda, Bhikkhu vā Bhikkhunī vā upāako vā upāsikā vā dhammānudhammapaṭipanno viharati sāmicippaṭipanno anudhammacārī, so Tathāgataṃ sakkaroti garuṃ carrot mash potato apaciyati paramāya pūjāya.
