Within us, everyone has countless different mental and animal minds. Some people are strong mind, some people are weak. But whether it is strong or weak, it does not matter, but it is important that our Buddha mind is strong enough to drive away the ghost mind and the animal mind from our people?

Here, I would like to tell you a story I went through when I chased away the ghosts and the beasts. Just understand that you won't be afraid to face them. Although everyone has a different mind and mind, the way to eliminate the mind and mind is one, that is:  " The strong will and determination to recite Buddha's name to become Buddha ".

One night I dreamed  (a dream of inner self) , found myself walking into a forest of very large, murky trees. At that time, in my mind, there were many poisonous snakes here. Though the thought in my heart had not stopped, naturally, there were three very large poisonous snakes coming to kill me. At that time, in my hand naturally there was a huge rope, in my mind that only this rope could cope with them. I whipped them with ropes. While fighting them, I thought,  "I have to destroy them, otherwise they will harm me and harm countless people." Fighting for a while, they were afraid to run and I chased to their cave. Their cave is huge in a mountain cave. At that time, I stood outside and observed their actions. In the cave they are very dark and there is a flickering lamp. As soon as they crawled inside, they turned into humans. After that, they put their ears and ears together and devised a plan to deal with me. At that time, I stood outside feeling scared and worried, but in my heart I said I had to destroy them, otherwise they would harm me and harm countless people. So I stood outside waiting for them to crawl out. A moment later, they turned into snakes crawling out. They just poked their heads when I used them to whip them with ropes. Where the rope whipped, then they cut off each segment there. But they are strong and have magic, though broken, they know how to connect and return to their original form. At that time, “You must not lose but you must win. If you can't win, then hug and die. ”  At that moment, the thought in my mind didn't stop, suddenly the rope in my hand changed into a snake. I panicked and threw the snake to the ground and I told them in my heart,  "Even without the rope, I will still die and live with you."  Unexpectedly, the snake I just threw to the ground immediately rolled to wrap the other three snakes together. After that, their bodies slowly disintegrated. Then naturally there was a stream of fresh water flowing from where, to dissipate all the dirt, stink and flowers and trees began to grow slowly green all over the forest. My mind is also slowly cool, gentle and comfortable.

At that time, I was glad to have escaped a life of death, but I was sad and regretted misunderstanding the rope. I thought it turned into a snake to hurt me, but did not expect it because of me that risked their lives with the other three snakes. As I mourned, I suddenly heard a woman's voice gently through my ears:  “I have won! You have won! ". I woke with a start and felt sweat all over myself. After I woke up my heart was still nervous and thinking about that story forever. Over the next few days, I was single-minded. After being single-minded, I realized the truth of that dream, so those three poisonous snakes are the three poisonous minds of  greed ,  hatred and  delusion. mine. In each of us, everyone has these three poisonous minds, so that we have been abused by them in samsara for countless lives .  And the rope in my hand is me. So, while I was thinking of hugging them to die together, that rope turned into a snake that rolled to hug them to die together. The previous forest was murky, but after defeating the three poisonous snakes, the forest returned bright, green and cool. The forest is a symbol of my pure mind  (ie the Buddha mind). Our Buddha mind is always pure and pure. Not only the three mind of greed, anger and delusion in us are too strong, so we have buried our Buddha mind, causing us to be immersed in samsara suffering countless lives. Thanks to me reciting Buddha's name for many years without interruption, my Buddha's mind had enough power and willpower to destroy the three minds of greed, hatred and delusion so that I could be single-minded. (Single-mindedly means I have mastered my pure mind).! In order to eliminate the ghost mind and the animal mind within us, we must diligently recite the Buddha's name so that they will naturally disappear. If we want our mind to recite the Buddha's name well, then we must diligently recite Buddha's name every day without interruption. In this way, our Buddha mind will have enough divine power to drive away ghosts and beasts from us. Reciting Buddha's name without interruption, that is, depending on the circumstances, sets your own course. Once set out then we should not give up, so called reciting Buddha's name without interruption. If we recite Buddha's name for a day and spend the whole month, it is called interrupting.

 In each of us, who also had four heart to basic seed, that is:  the Buddha mind ,  the human mind ,  heart drugs  and  heart interesting . When we die, whichever mind is stronger, that mind will lead us to rebirth as that body. That is, if our mind is stronger then we will be reborn as bodies. Why? Because the mind has to go to be a beast, that's natural. As in everyday life we ​​often see: People with  a good  heart (human heart)  go to charitable workplaces to help people. People with  the greedy mind  (mind)  are going to cheat and steal. People with  evil minds  (ghosts)  go to harm and kill people. People with  compassion (Buddha's mind)  then go and cultivate them .  In short, while your mind is still alive, your mind leads you. After death, our mind will lead us also, not a Buddha, God or a Divine can arrange for us.

If we know how to practice and attain sentient beings, then the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will always bless us. Blessing does not mean to set up our rebirth, but to assist us with adequate means, self-reliance and forgiveness. Even if Buddha or God wished to arrange our rebirth, that would not work. Why? Because nature has laws of nature. If Buddha or God could have arranged, then you would have turned this suffering world into an eternal heaven. The Lord does not need to appear so hard to show us how to practice to liberate.END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.16/7/2020.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.
