THANK YOU THE KING OF MARAS.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH. On the occasion of Enlightenment Day , let's try to find out the meaning of Sidhattha Bodhisattva 's victory over the demon army on the night of enlightenment . When it comes to the Buddhist sense wins Mara , almost everyone are imaginary pictures devil horns, pointed fangs, buffalo head, horse face extremely dreadful pull to encircle him and he also cast divine power to resist ; After a hard battle with miraculous powers, he subdued the demon army in a glorious and glorious way . The words Ma Vuong and overcome in Buddhism do not have such simple meanings, there are five types of Ma Vuong : - Defilements ghost (Kilesa māra). - The five aggregates of ghosts (Khandha māra). - The practice of magic (Abhisankhara Māra) . - Death kill ghosts (Maccu māra). - The gods ma (Devaputta Māra). All five of the above ghosts are obstacles to the process of enlightenment . So , thank won five ma means touched and overcome the obstacles of maras , especially ghost negativity to reach the ultimate sensory misinterpretations exit. We will in turn find out what the five ghosts are; How did the Buddha overcome those demons ? 1. Phiền no ma : We take note that the passage of the following: "Hey satanic , sensual is the demonic first of you, second is dissatisfied , three are longing, four are craving , in the dullness torpor ( drowsiness , somnolence ), six are scared, seven are skeptical , eight is defamatory bigotry , nine is the fame and ten is too romantic (egotistical, ...). this satanic , you are the hero of world war, they reside in the people bad away from ignoble; who weakness is failure, but the restaurant is they willachieve true happiness ... I would rather die on the battlefield than live in defeat...". Reading the above passage, if we pay attention, we will see that the Buddha used the word "ma king" with the meaning of inner afflictions in vile, vile people , appearing in the form of unwholesome minds and mental factors such as greed, anger, laziness, doubt , fear ... or under physical needs such as hunger, thirst , sleep... Weak people are always dominated by these psychological and physiological obstacles , but Bodhisattvas the aspirant tenacity, he has won all maras it. Does the Buddha used the psychic evolution , right or through a miracle aided from outside the military to victory ghost? Had he only fought once under the Bodhi tree at Bodhi Gaya that he could subdue the ranks of the army of demons? The life of the Buddha proves that, except in extreme cases , he rarely used supernatural powers , because he did not want his disciples or infidels to take refuge in him because of the miraculous power they had to come for the sake of liberation. never mind. Furthermore, the purpose of the Buddha is turning evil into good, moved about the treatment by the kindness three Perfections which he practiced in countless lifetimes and never used the authority , violence to win satanic . Strength three Perfections are virtues: generosity , morality , sexual ly , wisdom , diligence , patience, determination , honesty , compassion , joy and equanimity . Bodhisattvapracticed the perfections, noble qualities that transcended this world , for innumerable kalpas , that is to say, in the innumerable battles Mara had fought continuously and he had experienced countless victories. palsy , until time finally , when deeds full, intellectual ordination , he has won all satanic , never fail again. So triumph negativity ghost is to win yourself and only have to win this new considerably more: "Self-defeating indeed cross section glorious than winning others. Oil Heaven, Gandhabba , Mara or Pham Thien , no one can defeat the man who has overcome and lived in restraint." ( Dharma Sutras 104, 105). 2. The Five Aggregates of Ghosts : Khandhas ghost is the delusion of ego , in other words that is down is , ego , ego defense only in concept , in reasoning , in illusion , not in reality . Concept with a self permanent invariance is completely wrong , because the so-called me just a combination of these factors psychological and physical always change according to the law impermanent , not a factor yet everlasting eternity . These factors psychological and physical that includes : - Form: material elements such as eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body combined by the four great elements of earth, water, fire, and wind. - Feeling: a feeling factor such as unpleasant (suffering), pleasant ( pleasant ) or non- painful and non- pleasant (equanimity) when the internal sense is in contact with the external environment . - Perception: perceptual factors do the function of recognizing objects through concepts (pannatti) newly formed or accumulated in the past . - Action: Factors decided tendency reaction center management on the object, such as fancy or disgusted ... In other words, practice is the creation of operational and evil . - Consciousness: The mind element as the foundation throughout from the time a citta arises on an object until its cessation. Knowledge not only recognize objects more clearly thought through sensation, perception, and especially onion has provided information during the process of perception , that knowledge also plays the role recognition , retention (Tadālambana) of this information on signing inhibition (continuum) . Those five factors are dependent on each other that arise, are dependent on each other, then die, and then the world conditions change to form a continuous process in the pool of suffering and depression . Since the birth and death is too complex of life so people keep on raising expectations accept self, useful people to slave for stumbling , form, feeling, perception, volition and consciousness, difficult to escape. With sublime wisdom , the Buddha clearly saw that the self was only the five aggregates , with union, with dissolution, impermanence , and change , so he broke through the demonic obstacle of self- grasping . That is the feeling of victory over the five aggregates of ghosts . 3. The practice of ghosts: Dharma practice has many different meanings, but here refers to the karmic actions of body, speech, and mind. There are three types of onions: - Blessings : good deeds such as : giving , keeping precepts , meditating , reverent , serving , compassionate , happy discharge, etc... - Africa blessing : the unwholesome as: killing , stealing , sexual misconduct , lying , drinking, jealous, stingy , obstinate .... - Non- action: non- good behavior or practice of concentration and wisdom. Karma and evil of this stems from negativity and it plays a role important in the Order of collective negativity , thus suffering increasingly accumulating , reincarnations each time an increase . So to overcome the practice of ghosts is to destroy the formation of karma, free from the bondage of good and evil as the Buddha taught in Sa#myutta Nikaya: "Because of being dominated by greed , hatred ,The delusion that karma forms is the root cause of all suffering . The cessation of greed, hatred, and delusion is the destruction of the motivation for the formation of karma and all suffering must cease.” The Buddha and the Arhats are those who have ended the domination of karma, ie. has conquered the legal acts ghost. 4. Killing ghosts: Death or death ghost is death . The Buddha taught : "All living beings are subject to death, because there is birth, there must be cessation" (Sabbe sattā marissant, marananta ṁ hi jīvita ṁ ). In the Dhammapada , he also taught: "Not to fly into the air , not to dive to the bottom of the sea, not to hide in the depths of a mountain, nowhere in this world can escape death." Whether East or West , everyone must recognize that obvious truth . No matter how civilized humanity is, no matter how advanced medicine is, it ca n't find a method, a spiritual medicine that can help people escape death , because "No one escapes death! ". In fact, we are dying every second, every minute, not only when we close our eyes and die. Each one small point of time (moment) passed , we were a little older, the cells were destroyed a little. But the change is so rapid that we do not recognize the foot. How long beings also ignorance , craving , defilement , pollution is still being governed by the law of life and death . On the contrary, the Buddha has eradicated ignorance, so he no longer practices, ie no longer creates karma. There is no action, so consciousness does not arise. Consciousness does not give birth to name and form , ie body and mind do not arise. If the body and mind are not born, how can there be six inputs : eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, mind. Without the sense of entry , there is no touch. Without touch, there is no birthout feeling happy suffering. If there is no joy or suffering, there is no craving, that is, there is no birth of love and hate. Without love and hate, there is no clinging , wanting, clinging , holding on.... Without clinging , there is no existence, no birth, no aging, no death. The Buddha was no longer ignorant , craving ... so he escaped from birth and death, ie, he has conquered death and ghosts. 5. Angels and Demons: Of the five types of demon kings , only the devas are external demons , while the other four are all internal demons . But the outside ghost is not as dangerous as the one inside, so the Buddha taught : "Although defeating thousands of troops on the battlefield is not equal to defeating oneself, defeating oneself is the most glorious victory" . Gods ghosts are gods, even the demons wrong or beings in the realm Asura ( Asura ), Yakshis ( Yakkha ) ... The class non multiplication has the support, sometimes disturbing the monks in a secluded place . The biggest angel is the heavenly king Tha Hoa Tu Ta Thien . The less faith will fear and retrogression before the force of natural magic , but the rank virtuous high-thick, will consistently not only cowardice before magic , but also fell in kindness , compassion boundless goods of they return to the righteous path . In business has recorded many cases Buddha touched celestial ghost , as the case that ball Alavaka or naga Nando-pananda ... though supernormal generositystill have to submit to the Buddha 's peerless compassion - wisdom - purity . That is why he is called the Sphinx of God, the Master of Heaven and Man. Devas , but also means that the desire of people who want to become gods or want to heavenly enjoyment. That wish is also an inner demon that hinders our progress towards enlightenment . In summary , on the journey of liberation , we will have to follow the example of the Buddha to strive to sleep every second, every minute until the triumph was all exterior ghost could become Career Enlightenment .END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).BUDDHIST DHARMA WHEEL GOLDEN MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.13/9/2021.
