Buddha taught the six legal continents glass .VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.

Buddhism is one of the earliest community organizations in human history. A community built on the principle of benefit for all people with 6 principles of harmony (six continents of glass), adapted to all ages from past to present.

What is hexadecimal?

Luc is 6, harmony is harmony, fun together in all jobs of life. Six things are six ways to show the dignity of living a virtuous person, bringing harmony, love, helping and sharing with each other, from material to spiritual, from words to every work in life.

Draw here with the purpose of beauty, benefits for yourself and others, rather than passive weakness, nor have to use tricks to win more quietly on yourself. 

In a family, brothers and sisters living in dissonance and having fun with each other, the broken love split. If a husband and wife do not get along, the family's career will be hard to achieve, the children will be influenced by their parents' way of life and suffer from suffering. Being in a village with each other does not make peace, or it is more troublesome, confusing, quarreling and reporting than losing to destroy each other.

Living in the same organization, if not in harmony, the unit will sooner or later disband, because there is no unity and sympathy for each other. Therefore, we know how to apply the spirit of harmony in daily life, so that people can love and help each other with human love in life.

Harmony is the most important factor in every job, every mass organization. A family knows how to live in harmony, the family will be happy, the country will be stable and lasting, everyone knows how to live in harmony, the world will no longer have war and chaos.

Because of the importance of a harmonious way of life in family and society, the Buddha taught compassion to all sentient beings and taught people to practice the six types of harmony.

The meaning and content of the continent content

1 - Body co-existing (harmony together): Means living together under one roof, within a range, an organization, living in harmony, loving to help and share for each other , to fulfill the assigned work responsibilities. 

When living together and working in an organization, they must be happy and happy with each other, do not use power or power to bully but harm each other.

In a family, if you are brothers, spouses, and children, you must be respectful, respectable, and respectable. Members respect and respect each other.

If you are a Buddhist, study together in a temple, be friends, or be a disciple of Buddha, you must be happy to get along with each other, do not divide the faction to attack each other but affect the reputation. and the reputation of the temple.

If you are compatriots, living together in a country, you must take the national unity as the head with the spirit of no race or color. Vietnamese folk have the saying:

"Oh get elected trade secrets together,

Although other varieties but share a rig".

In short, living together in a situation, within a certain limit, we must know how to live in harmony with each other to fulfill the responsibilities of each person.

2. An irrevocable export of speech (words of harmony do not argue): living without arguing, but having the right to make constructive suggestions with the spirit of harmony, together learning, not speaking to each other, that cause divisions and divisions that need to be divided. have to say each other words are fun, gentle, gentle, loving.

There are close relatives whose mouths do not get along well with each other, say each other, find a sarcastic way to say bad things, create ideological divisions, which can easily lead to hatred and harm each other.

Choosing words means saying at the right time, at the right place, at the right place and should not say useless words that can hurt others. Following this principle means being careful to use words, as far as it is possible to always choose gentle, mellow expressions instead of stress and insults. And it is necessary to avoid controversy over losing.

Therefore, being in harmony is not enough, but the Buddha taught that we need to get along well in dealing and dealing with people. It means that we have to say softly and graciously to each other, not to quarrel or fight with each other. If you have any questions, you need to discuss what is right and wrong, then absolutely use calm and gentle words to exchange with each other.

3-Italy in harmony approval (the idea of ​​harmony with joy): the mind is always happy and happy with each other, sympathetic with the thoughts of others, not born of jealousy, arrogance, criticism and criticism.

Ideology is most important, it motivates the speech and body to act good or bad. If we consider the merit, the intention is first, but the conviction is also due to consciousness.

In the family, the couple do not have the same opinion, do not know how to sympathize with each other, it is easy to develop violence and eventually lead to a divorce. In an organization or in a country, if not reaching a viewpoint will lead to division and create intense opposition that seeks to destroy each other.

The Buddha understood that clearly, so he taught us to live together to have a happy, harmonious and sympathetic mind for disagreeable thoughts.

Therefore, first of all, there must be a harmonious mind before then can work together in harmony. By following this principle, everyone in a team must have a consensus that all work together to achieve good results.

In order to be in harmony, we must cultivate compassion and joy. Joyful discharge means being happy, ignoring the faults of others who have inadvertently or intentionally made yourself sad.

In short, when we live and work together, we must happily live in harmony with each other so that we and others can be happy right here and now.

4 - About initiates' harmony (harmony with practice): Living together under an environment and organization, we must respect and practice the Dharma precepts that have been taught and adhere to the common rules.

In Buddhism, from monks to lay Buddhists, depending on the status of their spiritual training, they receive more or less precepts. Those at home take the Five Precepts; ordained people take 10 precepts if they are a novice novice, 250 if ordained as a Bhikkhu, or 348 if ordained as a bhikkhuni etc.

When people gather together, or participate in activities in a group to study, each person, according to his / her ability, makes a vow to observe the precepts for a better chance of living.

More broadly, in our lives, regardless of the organization, discipline must be the first. In the school, if students do not keep the common discipline, who wants to go out, then out, who wants to learn to play as they like, the school will eventually disband.

In the Buddhist family's life, each person arbitrarily follows his or her own thoughts and disobeys the guide, the activity will sooner or later disintegrate.

In short, in a group, religion or life, if we do not keep the precepts, discipline and rules together, we can never live together and harmonize with each other. So we want to live in harmony with each other to practice, then everyone needs to respect and uphold the same precepts.

5-Kien reconciliation (see how to explain to each other to understand): sharing knowledge for each other, together constructing ideas about views, ways of thinking, how to do, all are based on the foundations and foundations For the sake of everyone. 

In co-living and working together, each person knows what is good, must explain and guide others to understand so that they can imitate and practice according to what is useful.

When we discover or invent something new, or have an idea that benefits many people, if we don't guide others, we become greedy, selfish.

Buddhists cultivate in modern times with the classic Tripitaka and have the explanation of many people, if we do not have the wisdom, we will not be able to differentiate between righteousness, evil, and skillful means, Where is the end.

In this case, if the person understands right and right and does not explain his or her views and opinions to the right and wrong people, it will lead to division and harm to each other.

6-Loi harmony with troops (benefit of sharing): Living together under an environment, we must divide each other equally in terms of material, wealth, and utensils in order of great and small, do not abuse their powers his to do his own.

 

While living together, if someone gives food, clothing, blankets, medicine, etc., they must divide it equally among others, not because of their own love, but a few people have a lot of justice. in order of big and small.

In society there is inequality with each other leading to antagonism, class division, also because they do not know the benefits of the army. This is a very important condition to ensure the harmony of a collective, because when following this principle, everyone no longer distinguishes between personal and collective interests, everyone considers that all material values ​​are shared, everyone must be equally divided regardless.
