7 properties of the saints.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.
On the occasion of the Buddha's return to Citadel Capilava, Princess Yau-Dala told her son to come and ask the Buddha to divide his fortune. The Buddha said that we no longer hold worldly property, only the property of the Saints. Rahula listened to the Buddha's words, immediately accepted and then made a mind to become a monk and follow the Buddha.
>>Common sense Buddhism.
Friends, our Buddha still had a wife and children before becoming a monk. After attaining enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, he understood all the different principles such as right and wrong, good and bad, failure, success and failure in life. created by himself, then the Buddha returned to save sentient beings.
If we know how to apply them in our daily lives, we will be rich and full of happiness, no one can take them away. Our Buddha inherited that fortune, so he no longer regrets the golden palace, the palace, the beautiful wife, the good children and the people of the world. Those spiritual treasures are the seven saints' inheritances: Faith, precepts, good deeds, preciousness, literature, generosity, and wisdom - these seven things, if we know how to receive them, will master ourselves and live a happy and peaceful life. right here and now.
Bodhisattva Never Disparaging throughout his life only practiced that one sentence to remind us to turn back to ourselves and live with that insight, which is hidden right here in this body. That belief, after being verified through practice, is no matter what anyone says, but we are still as strong as a tripod.

Faith here is faith, first of all, you must deeply believe in cause and effect, do good to enjoy blessings, do evil to suffer. I am the owner of many blessings, not a god, no god has the right to bless and bring disaster.
Next is the belief that there is a Buddha in everyone's heart, Buddha is the sound of the word Buddha, also known as the enlightened person, the awakened person, in short, called the Buddha. Buddha is a Vietnamese word that has been used through poetry and fairy tales for over two thousand years. The Chinese call it Buddha, enough to say it is Buddha Da, for short, Buddha. Believe in yourself as Buddha, in the sutras say that I am Buddha, beings have become sentient beings, then Buddha will become.
Such faith is true faith, after we know how to reflect, reflect and correct, we have experienced it clearly without mistake. Because people do not know and despise themselves, they have to accept the arranged fate and live in confusion and suffering.
There was a bodhisattva named Thuong Non-Contempt, dedicated to the practice of opening Buddha nature to enlightenment for everyone, so even if someone scolded and beat him, he only said one sentence: "I don't dare to despise you because you will succeed. Buddha".
Bodhisattva Never Disparaging throughout his life only practiced that one sentence to remind us to turn back to ourselves and live with that insight, which is hidden right here in this body. That belief, after being verified through practice, is no matter what anyone says, but we are still as strong as a tripod.
One day, when Buddha came to a village to teach, everyone here asked: "We are people who do not have strong faith in religions, anyone who comes here to propagate their religion is good and advises them to do so. everyone should believe. How do we know which religion is good, which is bad, which is right and which is wrong?"
Precepts help us to prevent evil from falling into the depths of sin, and precepts are like a bright path to dispel delusion and darkness.
Precepts help us to prevent evil from falling into the depths of sin, and precepts are like a bright path to dispel delusion and darkness.
Buddha did not answer but asked again:
- Good men and women, does killing have compassion? Yes no! - Is there any compassion for thieves and robbers? Yes no! - Does drunken drinking have compassion? Yes no!
Any religion that advises not to do the above should be believed. In fact, our Buddha is too clever, because he always advises to keep those precepts to show equal compassion for all sentient beings.
Therefore, Buddhism is the way of compassion, the way of love, the way of awakening, the way of people, for the sake of people, love, care and help each other. When listening to the Buddha explain each specific detail, all the people here take refuge with the Buddha and vow to uphold the five virtues and cultivate the ten good things.

Sister eel and sister perch are close friends, although they are not of the same race, but due to their close and close lives, the two sisters live together very meaningfully. One day, when she went out to play, she accidentally met delicious sardines, was passionate about enjoying but missed her friend at home, so she invited her sister to enjoy delicious sardines. The perch sister kept refusing, saying that I had already had a full meal, so that next time, my sister eel.
But because of her love to eat, she kept begging, making her heart flutter and could not refuse. When she got there, she didn't feel very secure, so she kept looking around because she saw that it was a basket with a lot of food inside. The eel sister said it was okay, I have been eating and drinking normally since morning until now, please come in and eat with me. She couldn't bear to hear her pleas, so she had to crawl in.
After eating, the eel slithered out of the basket comfortably and gently, while the perch kept wandering around without finding a way out. By all means she struggled to get out, but she couldn't get out so much that her body was scratched and flaked everywhere. The eel outside thought that the perch was playing in the basket, so the faster she pushed, let's hurry back before it gets dark. But ironically, "the fish may bite the hook to remove it, the birds have been in the cage for a while."
The more the perch struggled to escape, the more full of injuries she was, so her body ached, her mind panicked, and she cried with fear and fear. As for the eel sister, she thought that her friend was joking, but unexpectedly the situation would become even more tragic, in the end, the eel sister knew that her friend was trapped. harm you.
The above story is stopped here for you and me to reflect. From the standpoint of psychology, Buddhism does not prohibit us from enjoying worldly pleasures. Buddha still allows and encourages lay people at home, to have the right to get rich to enjoy within their own limits, so as not to lead to moral corruption, by their own efforts.
Because she loves you, she wants her perch to enjoy with her, but she doesn't know that the basket is a trap, a money trap, a beauty trap, a fame trap, a delicious food trap, and a lot of sleep. In that basket there are many prey that can help you live for a month, two months, a year, two years or a lifetime, so who doesn't want to.

Hey friends, living in the world in the midst of a harsh life, we need to have genuine understanding and discernment, to know how to skillfully overcome life's pitfalls. Adversity or obstacles is just a test to help us train our moral character and rise above the mud of sin. Life's pitfalls are very diverse and rich, all based on our excessive selfish desires, if you do not know how to put in spiritual medicine to have true understanding, but wisely rise up. self-mastery, thus not being fooled by worldly temptations.
For lay people, Buddha allows us to have the right to get rich and enjoy what we have, but just in harmony, not too much to affect other people's lives.
Because she loves you, she wants her perch to enjoy with her, but she doesn't know that the basket is a trap, a money trap, a beauty trap, a fame trap, a delicious food trap, and a lot of sleep. In that basket there are many prey that can help you live for a month, two months, a year, two years or a lifetime, so who doesn't want to.
It is because of that desire that they will easily be trapped, even if it is too late to repent at that time. But why is the eel still comfortable without being trapped, while the perch sister is writhing in pain in the prison of sin.
The above parable gives us a practical lesson in life, the eel sister symbolizes someone who knows how to plant blessings and keep good morals, so even though she enjoys a little, she is still not bound by the traps. . As for the perch sister, because she does not know how to accumulate blessings and keep good morals, when enjoying, she does not know how to control and control her body and mind, so she easily gets attached to fall.
Looking back at the reality of life, there are so many people entangled in prison because of their own traps, the traps of loved ones, the traps of friends, the traps of enemies that make us extremely miserable. , don't know what to do when it's already gone. Today, some people are entangled in social evils just because they are happy to listen to friends, or because they are upset and dissatisfied with their family, but they plunge themselves into the trap, only to have a moment of impulsiveness in the end. bring disaster to the body, live in suffering and confusion.
Only Buddhism can help us understand human life, when we grow up we know how to live with true love, know how to live with an understanding heart, or help people save lives and never harm anyone. The perch sister, because she believed in her friends but did not know the difference between right and wrong, got entangled in the labor cycle, when she woke up, it was too late, had to suffer retribution.
The reason why people get caught up in the prison cycle is because they don't know how to keep the five precepts of Buddhism, but in this world there is always war, killing and killing each other, from not keeping the precepts of killing and killing. the thing that comes out.
Therefore, we must be aware of the suffering caused by killing, children must not kill, must not be instigated to kill, do not happily agree with killing and minimize the killing of children. animals until we can stop killing animals. And the war will end when people are aware of the precept not to kill.

If we don't commit adultery and destroy the happiness of other people's families, we can easily love and support each other in respect of each other.
Without binge drinking and the use of stimulants such as cocaine, drugs and toxins, mankind will live together with equal love. By keeping the precepts with great compassion, it has helped us not to fall into the pit of sin but often help people save things.
TAM MY
Sin is being ashamed of yourself when you do something wrong. Knowing how to repent, be ashamed of yourself, often respect personal honor, so never to repeat old mistakes.
PRECIOUS
You are ashamed of people, so you try not to do bad things. When we do something wrong we feel remorse, we feel regret and try to find a way to correct the mistake. People who are ashamed of their mistakes, which means they are wrong, should try to correct them, thus having the opportunity to renew themselves and rise above the dark fate.
LITERATURE
Literature is to study widely, listen to a lot to expand knowledge to grow up to serve humanity and achieve worldly careers. So we have two couplets to remind ourselves more: Learn to broaden your horizons of knowledge Repair your mind to be clear.
Learning is a necessary need in our life, small without learning, big does nothing to benefit anyone. You can learn from school through the instruction of teachers, learn from friends, learn from parents, learn from life experiences or self-study through books. Thanks to studying, you will know the myriad things in this world and apply it to your daily life. Most people do great things through diligent study.
Giving is the mind that knows how to let go of sorrows, sufferings and harms, in addition, it also knows how to give alms, respectfully and respectfully, respecting grandparents and parents, being grateful to teachers and ready to share joys and sorrows when giving. meet people in need.

Uneducated people often have little success in life because they are not able to shoulder the work that requires knowledge. So learning must go hand in hand with practice, learning is a process of research and discovery, practice is to be applied in real life to serve many people well.
THINKING
Giving is the mind that knows how to let go of sorrows, sufferings and harms, in addition, it also knows how to give alms, respectfully and respectfully, respecting grandparents and parents, being grateful to teachers and ready to share joys and sorrows when giving. meet people in need. Giving, giving, helping, sharing is the first purpose Buddha taught us, the cause leading to abundance in wealth, material wealth, so that people's lives are stable and have the opportunity to cultivate their minds and hearts. count. Therefore:
Buddha teaches the Dharma of giving
To transform poverty
To eliminate greed
Because of that, it's easy to practice.
When we have a stable material life, we don't have to be busy worrying about food and money, so we have time to do other useful things. The poor and difficult life often make them resent the heavens and the earth, blame the society and their families, so they are not able to contribute to social welfare.
HUE
Hue is wisdom that sees and knows as it really is, thanks to practice, it is easy to let go of the mind of greed, delusion, and harming people. Doing all the above six things without having enlightened wisdom can't be fully accomplished, because faith without wisdom easily turns into superstition, with blessings without wisdom, the afflictions of greed, hatred, and delusion remain. Blessing is the external contribution, wisdom is reflecting on the inside to see clearly the true appearance of things is caused by cause and effect according to the principle: "If this is, then that is there, if this is not, then that is not". So we serve and contribute to our work without being blinded by worldly pleasures.
Rahula, when he heard that the Buddha gave him a spiritual fortune, immediately accepted it and sent his mind to follow the Buddha and return to the monastery. But because of his young age, the little Rahula often mischievously destroys, lies, and lies, affecting the practice of the masses.
One day, the Buddha knew about it and went to teach Rahula. When the Buddha arrived, the uncle drew a basin of water for the Buddha to wash his feet. After washing his feet, the Buddha asked if he had received the spiritual inheritance in full.
The Buddha pointed to a basin of dirty water to wash his feet and asked the little Rahula, can this water be used for eating, rinsing, or washing his face?
Speech is an expression of a person's dignity and personality. People can love and help each other more and can also hate each other because of their words, so say it in a way that pleases each other. Choosing words is that we know how to choose words that are appropriate to the role of each person, each nuance of different situations.

Choosing words is that we know how to choose words that are appropriate to the role of each person, each nuance of different situations.
The young man said: "Yes, venerable sir, the water is dirty and cannot be used anymore". The Buddha just said: "O Rahula, a person who does not speak truthfully and live honestly is as useless as that basin of dirty water that cannot be used for anything, so it must be thrown away."
After that, the Buddha asked the monk to empty the water in the basin, then asked: "Can this pot hold food and drink now?"
"Dear World Honored One, this basin contains dirty water, so it cannot hold food or drink."
Buddha continued, a person without a sincere heart like a pot filled with dirty things can then receive the spiritual inheritance of the Tathagata. Having said that, the Buddha kicked the broken pot and asked the monk if this broken pot was regrettable or not?
The young man replied, I have nothing to regret because the other pot is full of dirty things.
In the same way, Rahula, if a cultivator does not know how to live honestly and honestly, and the sages and saints are not loved by anyone, how can I receive spiritual wealth to escape the pitfalls of life? live with dignity and morality for the benefit of all sentient beings.
Sure enough, the young Rahula knew how to repent, be ashamed of himself and awaken to repent with the sages and saints, trying to practice, later becoming the ten best disciples of the Buddha.
"Words don't cost money to buy, Choose words that please each other."
Speech is an expression of a person's dignity and personality. People can love and help each other more and can also hate each other because of their words, so say it in a way that pleases each other. Choosing words is that we know how to choose words that are appropriate to the role of each person, each nuance of different situations.
Thus, the above two sentences want to affirm that if we know how to properly speak, we will be respected and loved by everyone, and build healthy and good social relationships. To achieve friendliness, when speaking, we express how not to hurt others, bind human souls together, and write beautiful emotions and impressions in communication.
The reason we have to speak so carefully is because words can both build good social relationships and destroy them instantly. Especially in business or diplomacy, words also determine success or failure.
Words are an effective means to convey to others thoughts, thoughts, and hidden desires, thereby creating a bridge of understanding for each other. The tongue plays such an important role, but the tongue plus words is the reason why it is easier for us to misunderstand each other, which leads to hatred, hatred, and suffering for each other. That's why there is a proverb: "The boneless tongue has many twists and turns".
Honesty is a noble virtue that is valuable in daily life, if later you grow up, have a large house, have power, authority, wealth and luxury, but lack of honesty will only make you miserable. the world because you are deceiving people. The cause of deception, the result will be painful loss when the conditions are met.

The cause of deception, the result will be painful loss when the conditions are met.
That is, the human tongue has no bones, so people can say whatever they want to say, whatever they want to say, whatever they want to say, whatever they say is right or wrong. Those who often say back and forth, do not keep their reputation, do not keep their status, do not keep their promises, it is often sarcastic that they are the kind of people who turn their backs on their words, like the seller of rice paper and come back and forth.
That's why the ancients used to say that "one person can talk as much as three villages and can't argue back". Why when there is a person, who speaks rudely, regardless of reason, stubbornly stubborn, goes around three villages, no one cares, no one bothers to argue, no one is stupid, wastes effort, wastes time. time, than lose with them.
There are words that, when uttered, destroy houses, destroy the country, and harm the people. But, there are also words that make a happy family know how to love each other, with an understanding heart. That is why, before we speak, we need to bend our tongue seven times and resolve to speak the truth, that is, not to say no, to say yes, not to lie, not to tell lies, not to say anything. throat, do not speak hateful words or curses, do not say words to seduce people, and should not say good things in front of them, say bad things behind their backs or tell misunderstandings for the two sides...
In general, what we say for the purpose of harming people, we try not to let it arise, when we have already said it, we have to find a way to apologize, not to let the other person's anger and pain arise, so Words are very important and useful, if we know how to speak words of true love. Sincerity and sincerity are his own moral expression that does not hide anything, because he is ashamed of himself but tries to correct it and is ashamed of others, so he never dares to do it. more wrong, so that it is always better to live with everyone.
Honesty is a noble virtue that is valuable in daily life, if later you grow up, have a large house, have power, authority, wealth and luxury, but lack of honesty will only make you miserable. the world because you are deceiving people. The cause of deception, the result will be painful loss when the conditions are met.
