Whoever has pure faith in the exalted throne, he obtains a great blessing, and also obtains the fruit of that blessing. The Buddha taught in the Aggappasādasutta Sutta (1) the meaning as follows: - O monks! You should have pure faith in the four highest persons. What are the four highest thrones like? 1- All living beings are beings without legs (snakes, fish, ...), beings with two legs (humans, chickens, ducks, ...) horses, buffaloes, cows,...), sentient beings with many legs (the hiss, the mats, etc.), sentient beings with the aggregates of form (the form-world without perception), beings with 4 name-aggregates (aggregate aggregates of feeling, aggregates of perception, aggregates of formations, aggregates of consciousness, no aggregates of form) in the four immaterial realms, sentient beings have perception (mind) (sense-sphere, realms of consciousness) form-world, formless-world), sentient beings have no perception (in the formless-world), sentient beings neither have perception nor do not have perception (in the formless realm). -world of non-perception-non-non-idea-land of heaven). Among all these beings, the wise men extoll and praise the Tathagata, the Fully Enlightened Buddha, saying: "The Perfectly Enlightened Buddha is the greatest of all. all those living beings.” Those sentient beings who have pure faith in the Supremely Enlightened Buddha are called those who have pure faith in the supreme throne-holder Buddha. They have pure faith in the highest Buddha-said the highest throne, they will surely obtain the highest treasure. 2- All kusala dhammas are conditioned dharmas created by causes and conditions. Of all these kusalas, the Noble Eightfold Path is the noblest of all virtues, which is praised and extolled by the wise. France". Beings who have pure faith in the Noble Eightfold Path, those beings are called those who have pure faith in the Dharma, who hold the highest throne. They have pure faith in that highest throne of Dharma, and they will surely obtain the highest treasure. 3- All dharmas are conditioned and unconditioned. Of all these, Nirvana is the dharma of detachment (virāga), which the wise men extoll and extol, saying: "The dharma of detachment from craving is the highest of all these. .” How is Nirvana a dharma? - Nirvana is the dharma that is no longer infatuated with the five senses. - Nirvana is the dharma that destroys the mind of craving and craving in the five senses. - Nirvana is the dharma that uproots ignorance and craving. - Nirvana is the dharma that cuts off birth and death in the three worlds. - Nirvana is the dharma to cut off the mind of craving. - Nirvana is the cessation of the mind of desire. - Nirvana is the cessation of all sufferings, Those sentient beings who have pure faith in Nirvana, the dharma of detachment, are called those who have pure faith in the highest throne of Nirvana.

The saints, the disciples of the Tathagata, have four pairs, making eight saints who are worthy to receive offerings, who are worthy to be welcomed as honored guests. Those who are worthy to be offered by sentient beings, who are worthy to be worshipped, the Holy Sangha who are incomparably the noble field of merit for sentient beings. Those beings who have pure faith in the holy Sangha are called those who have pure faith in the supreme throne-holder. They have pure faith in the highest throne of the Sangha, and they will surely receive the highest treasure. - O monks! You should have pure faith in the four highest such persons. The Buddha preached a meaningful verse that: Pure faith in the great throne, Wisdom-understanding in the sublime throne. Pure faith in the great Buddha, The Supreme Being worthy of offerings. Pure faith, the great Dharma, the great Dharma, Is Nirvana, the law of pure love. Pure Faith German-Highly High, Is the noble merit field of sentient beings. The one who makes offerings to the great monks, Sublime merit is greatly increased, To obtain the noble fruit of a long life, Beauty, fame, good reputation, happiness, And physical and mental strength. The wise man makes offerings to the great throne, Having firm concentration in the sublime dharma, That one will be gods, humans, Reaching the lofty place, the mind rejoices. Faith In The Three Jewels And Precious Fruits Faith in the Three Jewels which is faith in the Buddha, faith in the Dhamma, and faith in the Sangha in the Cundīsutta (1) are summarized as follows: : Once upon a time, the Blessed One was staying at the Veḷuvana temple near the city of Rajagaha. At that time, Princess Cundī, with 500 chariots carrying 500 princesses, came to pay homage to the Blessed One, sat down in a reasonable place, and said to the Blessed One: - Dear World-Honored One, my royal brother Cunda taught me that: "The male attendant and female servant, who have pure faith in the Three Jewels, have come to take refuge in them. where the Buddha said, take refuge in the Dharma-protection, take refuge in the Buddha-Tang-bao; and with great wholesome intention abstain from killing, abstain from theft, abstain from sexual immorality, abstain from lying, and abstain from intoxication and intoxication. giving birth to plagiarism. After that person dies, that great wholesome kamma results in rebirth in the good world (1) only, not in the bad world. (2) ” - Dear World-Honored One, may I ask: * How does a person who has faith in the Buddha say that, after death, he will only be reborn in the good world, not in the bad world? * How does a person who has faith in the Dhamma tell him that, after death, he is only reborn in the good realm, but not in the evil realm? * How does a person who has faith in the Sangha say that, after death, he will only be reborn in the good realm, not in the bad world? * How does a person who keeps the precepts fully and completely, after death, is only reborn in the good realm, not in the evil realm? The Blessed One taught that: – Hey Cundī! All sentient beings are beings without legs, beings with two legs, beings with four legs, beings with many legs, beings with form aggregates, beings without form- aggregates, sentient beings have perception, sentient beings have no perception, sentient beings neither have perception nor do not have perception. Among all these sentient beings, the virtuous ones extolled and praised: "The Tathagata, the Fully Enlightened Buddha is the greatest of all beings." Those who have pure faith in the highest Buddha are called those who have pure faith in the highest Buddha, and possess the highest treasures. – Hey Cundī! The conditioned things are caused by causes and conditions, and the unconditioned things are not by the causes and conditions. Among all these, Nirvana is the dharma of detachment (virāya) which is devoid of infatuation, the cessation of craving, the root of ignorance, craving without attachment, the cutting off of birth and death. reincarnation. That Dharma is called Nirvana, which the good-wisdoms extoll and extol: "The dharma of separation from craving is the highest of them all." Those who have pure faith in the highest Dharma of Nirvana, are called those who have pure faith in the highest Dharma, and possess the highest fruit. . – Hey Cundī! Of all these groups and associations, the Tathagata's disciples, the Holy Sangha, the disciples of the Tathāgata, have 4 pairs into the 8 Saints who are worthy to receive offerings, who are worthy. worthy of being welcomed as distinguished guests, worthy of being worshiped and made offerings to, the Saints and Sanghas are incomparable and incomparable merit-fields of sentient beings, which are praised by the wise. , praising that: "Those Saint-Sangha are the highest among those groups and associations." Those who have pure faith in those most exalted Sangha are called those who have pure faith in the highest Sangha, and possess the highest treasures. – Hey Cundī! Of all these precepts, the precepts beloved by the saints are the unbroken (1) , the unbroken (2) , the unspotted (3) , and the unbroken (4). , the precept of self-control that the wise praise and exalt, wrong view and craving cannot depend on it. Relying on the pure and perfect precepts as the foundation for the practice of meditation and the practice of insight meditation, the wise men praise and praise that: "The precepts in the Noble Path of the Noble Ones are the highest of all the kingdoms”. Those who have pure faith in the precepts of the sages are called those who have pure faith in the highest precepts and have the highest fruits.

The one who makes offerings to the great monks, Sublime merit is greatly increased, To obtain the noble fruit of a long life, Beauty, fame, good reputation, happiness, physical and mental strength. The wise man makes offerings to the great throne, Having firm concentration in the sublime dharma, That one will be gods, humans, Reaching the lofty place, the mind rejoices. Faith is the foundation of all kusala, it is faith that is co-exist with wisdom. A person with wisdom certainly has faith, but a person with faith is not necessarily wise, because out of the eight great kusala cittas there are 2 types, the 4 great kusala cittas associated with wisdom and the other. The 4 great kusala-cittas are not compatible with wisdom. * The Elder Subhūtitthera (1) is an Arahant who narrates his past life, which is summarized as follows: The Venerable Subhti's previous life was named Nanda, of the Brahmin clan. He was born in the period before Buddha Padumuttara (2) appeared in the world. Prince Nanda, when he was an adult, studied subjects according to the Brahmin tradition. After he became successful, he went forth to become a monk, a guru with a group of Taoist disciples. There are 44,000 residences at the foot of the Himavanta Mountains. The teacher Nanda and his 44,000 disciples all attained the eight jhānas: the four form-sphere jhānas and the four immaterial jhānas, especially fully attaining the five knowledges. When the Buddha Padumuttara appeared in the world, the Buddha went to Haṃsavatī province with the great monks and monks. One day, Buddha Padumuttara released great compassion, considering that sentient beings have good conditions to be saved, it became clear that the ascetic Nanda would have the will to become the Great Sage of the Buddha. The Buddha in the future time, while a group of 44.00 disciples will become Arahants, so the Buddha wearing robes and carrying a bowl alone flew down the air and landed at the foot of the Himavanta mountain range, with the intention of giving The ascetic Nanda recognized him as the Buddha. Indeed, seeing his appearance coming from afar, the teacher Nanda knew for sure that it was the Buddha, so he respectfully welcomed him, asked the Buddha to sit in the cup, and asked for the Buddha to sit on a high place. precious, while I sit low, respectfully pay respects to the Buddha. At that time, the group of disciples returning from the forest, picking fruit from the forest, saw their master sitting in a low place, and saw the Buddha with all good signs sitting in a noble seat, not knowing how noble he was, so they said that: - Dear Master, we thought that you were a noble person in our life, but we did not expect that there is a Master who is even more noble than you. "Dear Master, how noble is that one?" Master Nanda taught that: - Hey kids! You should not compare a grain of sand with the high mountain of Sineru. That person is the only one and only Buddha in the whole world of sentient beings. You should respectfully pay respects to the Buddha. Listening to the teacher's advice, the group of disciples together respectfully bowed to the Buddha. Master Nanda taught his disciples to choose clean, delicious fruits and bring them to the Buddha. After making the fruit and drinking the water, the Buddha thought, "Come here, monks." The Great-Venerable-Bhikkhu-Bhikkhu- Sangha understood the Buddha's thoughts, so 100 thousand Great-Bhikkhu-Bhikkhu Sangha flew to meet the Buddha. Master Nanda called the group of disciples and said: - Hey kids! The seat of the Buddha is not worthy, and the 100,000 seats of the great monks and monks are not yet available. So, you should use the magic of flying to find beautiful and fragrant flowers and bring them back as seats, to make offerings to the Buddha and the great monks of the Sangha, by magic mine. Obedient to the master, the group of disciples each flew to each direction in search of beautiful and fragrant flowers to bring home as a special magnificent dharma throne, to make offerings to the Buddha. Another 100,000 seats, especially 2 seats for the two Supreme Saints, disciples of the Buddha. The decoration work was soon completed successfully, by the miracles of the group of disciples. Master Nanda respectfully bowed to the Buddha and said: - Dear World-Honored One, please come and sit on the throne made of flowers that we have decorated, so that we may benefit, progress, and be at peace for a long time. long. The World-Honored One sat down on the throne, and then the Venerable Bhikkhu-Bhikkhus, in order of rank, ascended to their seats. At that time, the World-Honored One thought: "The Tathagata should enter into the cessation of perception and feeling (nirodhasamāpatti) for seven days and nights, so that this group of ascetics may have many noble merits." Knowing that the World-Honored One had entered the cessation of perception-and-feeling, the great-Venerable-Bhikkhu-Bhikkhu Sangha also entered the cessation of perception and perception according to the Buddha. Taoist Nanda held a parasol made of beautiful and fragrant flowers and stood in service of the Buddha for 7 days and nights. After the cessation of perception-feelings (nirodhasamāpatti), the Blessed One taught a monk to have two virtues: araṇa-vihārīnañca dakkhiṇeyyānañca, the most excellent among the saints and disciples of the Buddha. , preaching praising the ceremony of offering seats with flowers of the group of ascetics. Next, the Blessed One preached the Dharma to save a group of ascetics including 44,000 who all realized the truth of the Four Noble Truths, attained the 4 Noble Paths, the 4 Noble Fruits and Nirvana, and became the Saints. Arahant at that time. Master Nanda personally had a wish to become a bhikkhu with two virtues: araṇavihārīnañca dakkhiṇeyyā- nañca, the most excellent among the saints and disciples of the Buddha in the future, like a monk. This bhikkhu should not realize the truth of the Four Noble Truths, and do not realize the Noble Path or the Holy Fruit at all. The Buddha allowed 44,000 ascetics to ordination as bhikkhus in the manner called "Etha Bhikkhavo." All ascetics have become bhikkhus who have full 8 items of bhikkhus, as dignified as the Great-Venerables with 60 lows. At that time, the ascetic Nanda respectfully bowed to the Buddha Padumuttara, saying: - Dear World-Honored One, what blessings have I respectfully offered, holding a flower umbrella to stand for you for 7 days and nights.. Those blessings, I don't want anything else, I had only the wish to become a bhikkhu with two virtues: araṇavihārīnañca dakkhiṇeyyānañca the most excellent among the disciples of the Buddha in the future, like that bhikkhu of his. stop. Buddha Padumuttara knew well that the wish of the ascetic Nanda would be fulfilled, so the Buddha advised and prophesied that: “Bhāvehi Buddhānussatiṃ. Bhāvanānamanuttaraṃ. Imaṃ satiṃ bhāvayitvā, Pūrayissasi manasaṃ ……. ' (1) - Hey Nanda! You should practice reciting the Buddha's nine graces, which is the sublime meditation subject of all. After you have practiced the subject of reciting the Buddha's 9 graces, you will be able to fully fulfill your wishes such as: * You will enjoy all the happiness in heaven for 30.00 earth kalpas. * You will be the King of heaven for 80 lifetimes. * I will be the Holy King in the human realm for 1,000 kalpas. * You will be the King of a great and indescribable kingdom. That is the fruit of the practice of reciting the nine graces of the Buddha. * My reincarnations of birth and death are not born in the evil realm, only in the good world. That is the fruit of the practice of reciting the nine graces of the Buddha. * From now on, there are 100,000 more earth kalpas, Buddha Gotama will appear in the world. At that time, I was born in the wealthy Sumana family, my name was Subhūti. When I was an adult, I gave up my home, possessions and assets of 800 million, and went forth to follow Buddha Gotama. Not long after becoming a monk, I practiced dharma-practice meditation-wisdom leading to the realization of the truth of the four Noble Truths, the attainment of the Four Noble Truths, the Four Noble Truths, and Nirvana, become an Arahant, along with the four-wise-analytical, six-passenger. That Gotama Buddha will proclaim you as a saintly disciple who has two virtues: araṇavihārīnaṃ: permanent residence in the virtue of being free from afflictions and dakkhiṇeyyānaṃ: the virtue of receiving the gifts of the donor. the best among his disciples. That is the fruit of the practice of reciting the nine graces of the Buddha. Indeed, from then on, the past lives of birth and death, up to the last life of Venerable Subhūti, proceeded exactly as predicted by the Buddha Padumuttara. * Siṅgālamātutherī (1) is the Great-Venerable-Bhikkhu-Bhikkhuni of the Arahant Saints who narrated his past life, which is summarized as follows: * During the Buddha-Buddha Padumuttara appeared in the world. At that time, the previous life of the Venerable-Bhikkhuni was a young lady born in the family of a great mandarin of the court with high authority, wealth, and wealth. One day, the young lady went with her father and a group of subordinates to listen to Buddha Padumuttara preach, she developed pure faith, so she asked her father for permission to leave home to become a bhikkhuni in the teaching- Dharma of Buddha Padumuttara. After becoming a bhikkhuni, she has special faith in the Three Jewels: the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha. Once a bhikkhuni saw the Buddha Padumuttara proclaiming the great bhikkhuni as an arahant liberated by pure faith (saddhāvimutta) the most outstanding of all. order of bhikkhunis, his disciples, so the bhikkhunis had the wish to attain that position. At that time, the Blessed One, with great compassion and compassion, instructed the bhikkhuni, saying: - Hey kid! You should be a person of pure, unshakable faith in the Tathagata, in the Dhamma, in the monks and in the Sangha, in the pure moral virtues praised by the sages. , have the right view. Listening to the advice of the Buddha Padumuttara, the bhikkhuni generated a good heart, exceedingly happy, and asked the Buddha about his wish to become a Venerable Bhikkhuni, a Saint A-- the most outstanding of the future Buddha's bhikkhunis, liberated by pure faith (saddhāvimutta), as well as his present disciple. -whether you get the desired result or not. At that time, Buddha Padumuttara, with great compassion, foretold that: - Hey baby! Your wish will be fulfilled as you wish. - Hey kid! From now on, there are 100 thousand more earth kalpas, the Buddha of Perfect Enlightenment with the name of Gotama Buddha will appear in the world. At that time, I, the mother of Siṅgāla called Siṅgālamātu, will become a bhikkhuni in the teaching of Gotama Buddha, and then he will exalt me ​​in the position of Great-Bhikkhuni as a monk. The Arahant, liberated by pure faith (saddhāvimutta), is the most outstanding among the bhikkhunis and disciples of the Buddha. Listening to the prediction of the Buddha Padumuttara, the bhikkhuni generated a good heart with great joy and strived tirelessly to create the full ten perfections. Due to the virtue of the Dharma and the perfections of conduct, in the cycle of birth and death and samsara during the 100,000 earth kalpas, the bhikkhuni's subsequent incarnations have never fallen into the four evil realms-- precepts: (hell, asura, hungry ghosts, animals), and because of that good kamma, future lives will only be reborn in the good realms: the human realm and the other realms. heaven only. * The period of the Buddha Gotaa appeared in the world, after the last life of the bhikkhuni, he was born as the daughter of a rich man in the city of Rājagaha. When she was an adult, she married the son of a rich man and gave birth to a son named Siṅgāla. Therefore, she was called Siṅgālamātu: Siṅgāla's mother. One day, Mrs. Siṅgālamātu came to listen to Gotama Buddha's sermon, she realized the truth of the four Noble Truths, attained the Noble Path-Entertainment, the Saint-Fruit-winner, and Nirvana, became a Noble Enter. - Luu, she asked the Buddha for permission to become a monk in the teaching of Gotama Buddha. The bhikkhuni Siṅgālamātu, having pure faith, especially practiced the object of reciting the nine virtues of the Buddha (Buddhā-nussati), attaining access concentration (upacārasamādhi), using this approach concentration as the foundation. foundation, as an object of insight meditation, then practice the practice of meditation practice leading to the realization of the truth of the Four Noble Truths, the attainment of the One-Returning of the Noble Path, the of the One-Return of the Noble Truth, up to A. The holy path, the fruit of arahantship, and nirvana, destroys all afflictions, all cravings are left without residue, becomes a holy arahant, along with the four -wise-analytical, six-passenger, completed the task of the monastic level in the teachings of Buddha Gotama Buddha. The Buddha, residing at the Jetavana temple, honored the Venerable Singālamātu as the best Arahant liberated by pure faith (saddhāvimutta) among the bhikkhunis. - His death. All is true as the Buddha Padumuttara of the past had predicted to the Venerable Bhikkhuni Singālamātu. * His Holiness the Elder Phussadeva (1) Venerable Venerable Phussadeva in Sri Lanka, after Buddha Gotama passed away Nirvana, is summarized as follows: In the period after Gotama Buddha passed away from Nirvana, in Sri Lanka there was a stupa worshiping the relics of Buddha Gotama. Every day, Venerable Phussadeva did the job of sweeping, cleaning, and cleaning around the base of the stupa, and then he sat down to practice the subject of reciting the nine graces of the Buddha. One day, Armageddon appeared and transformed into a strange person, dirtying the foundation of the throne of the throne. The Elder must get up to clean. In the same way, on the second and third day, the Demonic God appeared and turned into a strange and ugly person that had never been seen in this region, so the Venerable Venerable considered that: “This strange ugly old man I have never seen before. So if that person is the Evil One who has come down to disturb me, let's see if he can." - Hey you! Are you the Evil Demon? The Evil One could no longer hide it, so he admitted it, and then revealed his true form. The Elder Phussadeva earnestly appealed to Alma, saying: – Hey, Evil-Mad! You have extraordinary powers, you have met the Buddha Gotama. Now, the old monk earnestly implores you to transform back the golden body of Gotama Buddha for the old monk to admire or not? According to the earnest and earnest words of Venerable Phussadeva, Ma-Ma Thien transformed into the golden body of Buddha Gotama. Seeing that Evil-Ma-thian transformed into the golden body of Gotama Buddha like this, the Elder Phussadeva thought: "Evil-ma-thien still has an evil mind and afflictions, but transforms into the golden body of the Buddha. Gotama Buddha is so venerable. In fact, if the Blessed One is free of afflictions, completely pure and pure, how admirable is the golden body of the Buddha!" After thinking correctly like this, the Venerable Phussadeva practiced the subject of reciting the Buddha's nine graces, generating joy and happiness associated with unprecedented great kindness, attaining access concentration in the subject. - The item of reciting the 9 graces of the Buddha. Feeling and being co-born with this great wholesome mind in the sense-base of mindfulness of nama-dhammas as the object of insight-meditation, the Elder Phussadeva turned to practice-practice-practice-practice-practice-practice-meditative wisdom-generating wisdom. clearly seeing, knowing the true-nature of pleasant feelings as nama-dhamma as dharma-no-self, continuously generating wisdom-meditation clearly seeing, knowing the arising and passing away of nama-dhammas, rupa-paññā- Dharma, manifesting three general states: the state of impermanence, the state of suffering, the state of not-self, leading to the realization of the truth of the Four Noble Truths, the attainment of the Four Noble Truths, 4 Sainthood and Nirvana, eliminating all afflictions, all cravings, becoming an Arahant at that throne. Firm Faith in the Three Jewels Only the Saints have firm faith in the Three Jewels, because the Saints are the ones who have eradicated the afflictions and doubts of the Buddha and the Dharma. Therefore, no one or anything can make the sage lose faith in the Three Jewels, but the truth is only pure and absolutely solid faith. where Tam-bao until the last life only. For the disciples of the Buddha, who are near-masculine, near-female, bhikkhus, novices are still ordinary people, whose faith is always pure. The Three Jewels is not an easy thing, because ordinary people still have many afflictions to dominate, especially the affliction of doubting in the Three Jewels: the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Buddha. Duc-Sang-bao, do not have enough faith in karma and its results. Thus, in order to easily generate pure faith in the Three Jewels, it is necessary to have a lofty and clear object. As the Buddha taught in the Cundīsutta: - Pure faith in the Buddha said to be faith in the Perfectly Enlightened Buddha, who has the 9 graces and virtues, is the highest of all sentient beings in the entire three worlds. -gender. - Pure faith in the Dharma-telling is faith in the 10 true dharmas, especially Nirvana, the law of detachment, which eradicates all sufferings, birth and death, samsara in the three worlds. - Pure faith in the Sangha is faith in the Holy Sangha, there are 4 levels: Stream-entry Saint, One-Returner, Non-Returner, and Ara-Saint. Han, is the noble merit field of sentient beings incomparable anywhere. When there is a clear and lofty object of the Three Jewels, it will be easier for those who are near-male and near-female to easily generate pure faith in the Three Jewels and maintain their faith. then, will surely obtain the highest of all treasures in life. Faith in the Three Jewels: the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha, the foundation of all virtuous deeds, is the faith that has wisdom leading in all good deeds. dharmas from the sex-world of good dharma, the form-world of good-dharma, the non-form-world of good dharma to the super-three worlds of good dharma. The Saints Have Firm Faith in the Three Jewels One who has firm and unshakable faith, he not only learns to understand the dhamma, learns the right dhamma (pariyatti saddhamma), but also practices the dhamma-practices-meditation leading to the arising of wisdom- The three-worldly wisdom meditation clearly sees, clearly knows the arising and passing away of rupa, nama-dhammas, clearly sees, knows clearly the three general states: the state of impermanence, the state of suffering, and the state of suffering. the non-self state of rupa-dhamma, nama-dhamma leading to super-three-worldly wisdom-meditation-wisdom, realizing the truth of the four noble truths, attaining the Noble Path, the Holy Fruit, and Nirvana , to eradicate diṭṭhi: wrong view, wrong view, vicikicchā: doubt in the Three Jewels: Buddha, Dharma Treasure, Sangha, become a Saint in the Buddha - spear. Indeed, Sūrambaṭṭhavatthu (1) is summarized as follows: During the time when Buddha Padumuttara appeared in the world, in the past life of near-nam Sūrambaṭṭha, a near-nam in the city of Haṃsavatī, came to listen to Buddha Padumuttara preaching. At that time, the Buddha praised a male near-masculine who had faith in the first Three Jewels, firm and unshakable, in the ranks of the male-doers. In the past life of the male assistant Sūrambaṭṭha ​​had a wish to become a male servant with the first unshakable faith in the Three Jewels, in the line of male attendants of the Lord Buddha. Enlightenment in the future. In the past life of the near-nam Sūrambaṭṭha, he invited the Buddha Padumuttara together with the great monks to come to his home, to make merit and make offerings to the Buddha together with the great monks. Bhikkhu-Bhikkhu-Tang. On the last day, Sūrambaṭṭha's past life confided to the Buddha about his wish to become a male near-matter with unwavering faith in the Three Jewels, in the immediate lineage. -the maleness of the Buddha of Right Enlightenment in the future. Buddha Padumuttara prophesied that from that earth-life there are 100,000 more earth-kalpas, until the time when Gotama Buddha appears in the world, this near-male life will be fulfilled as desired. In the past life of the near-male Sūrambaṭṭha, he continued to strive diligently to cultivate the perfection of conduct, experiencing birth and death, samsara in the human realm and in the deva world of desire for 100,000 great years-- earth life. During the time when Gotama Buddha appeared in the world, his son's later life grew up in a wealthy family in the city of Sāvatthī, and was named son Sūrambaṭṭha. When the young son Sūrambaṭṭha ​​grew up, he became a rich man, often supporting a group of non-Buddhist monks. At the last watch of the night, the Blessed One, after releasing his great compassion and contemplation, considering which sentient beings had good conditions to be saved, he clearly saw and knew that the wealthy Sūrambaṭṭha ​​had the good fortune to become a Stream-winner. That morning, the World-Honored One, carrying his bowl for alms, came to stand at the gate of the rich man's house, Sūrambaṭṭha. Seeing the Blessed One, the wealthy Sūrambaṭṭha ​​thought: "The recluse Gotama comes from the noble Sakya king line, his fame is spread everywhere in the world. Therefore, if I do not welcome the recluse Gotama, it is not good for me." After thinking like this, the rich Sūrambaṭṭha ​​went out to the gate, respectfully bowed at the feet of the Blessed One, then accepted the bowl, respectfully invited the Blessed One into the house, invite the Blessed One to sit on the most noble place, respectfully offer food to the Blessed One. After the World-Honored One had finished his meal, the rich man respectfully bowed down to the Blessed One, then sat down in a proper place. At that time, the World-Honored One preached the dharma to save the riches Sūrambaṭṭha. After listening to the Buddha's teaching, the rich Sūrambaṭṭha ​​practiced the Dharma, practiced meditation, and immediately realized the truth of the Four Noble Truths, attained the stream-entry, the Noble Path, and the stream-entry. fruition, Nirvana, eradication of diṭṭhi: wrong view, wrong view, wrong attachment, vicikicchā: doubt in the Three Jewels: Buddha, Dharma Treasure, Sangha, become a sage. The stream-entry saint in the teaching of Gotama Buddha. After saving the rich Sūrambaṭṭha, the Blessed One returned to the Jetavana temple. At that moment, Armageddon thought: “Blessed Sūrambaṭṭha ​​was originally a person in my power, but this morning the Blessed One came to the house of the rich, preaching the Dharma of saving wealth. After listening to the Dharma, did the rich Sūrambaṭṭha ​​attain the Noble Path, any Saint-fruits? So should I try to see if that richness has escaped from my power or has not yet escaped?" Arma Thien immediately transformed into a golden body of Buddha - Gotama Buddha had all 32 good signs of great people, 80 good signs, brought the bowl to stand in front of the gate of the rich Sūrambaṭṭha's house. Seeing the Blessed One coming to stand at the gate of the house, the rich Sūrambaṭṭha ​​thought: "The Blessed One has just come back and then came back, that's unusual." However, out of respect for the Blessed One, the rich Sūrambaṭṭha ​​hurried out to the gate, respectfully bowed at the feet of the Blessed One, and stood in a reasonable place, respectfully. to the Blessed One, saying: - Dear World-Honored One, the World-Honored One has already returned. What is the cause and what condition does the World-Honored One come back? Venerable Sir. Armatian commanded that: – Hey Sūrambaṭṭha! The Tathagata, without thinking carefully, taught: "All the five aggregates: the aggregate of form, the aggregate of feeling, the aggregate of perception, the aggregate of formations, the aggregate of consciousness are impermanent, suffering, and impermanent. fall." But actually, not all the five aggregates, but some are permanent, permanent, permanent, eternal. Hearing this, Sūrambaṭṭha ​​is a Saint-Enter-streamer who has the meditative wisdom to see clearly, and to know the arising and passing away of the five aggregates: the aggregate of form, the aggregate of feeling, the aggregate of perception- Aggregates, aggregates, consciousness or rupa, and nama in the three worlds all have three states in common: impermanence, suffering, and non-self. consider that: Armament is usually the opposite of the Buddha. So, this person is definitely Armageddon. The male assistant Sūrambaṭṭha ​​eloquently said: “You are the Evil One!” With the steely words of the son-in-law Sūrambaṭṭha, the Stream-winner, Armatian could not deny it, so he had to confess that: – O rich man Sūrambaṭṭha! I am the Armageddon. At that time, the male assistant Sūrambaṭṭha ​​pointed his finger at Arma-tian and said eloquently: – Hey Arma-tian! Even the hundreds of Armenians, the thousands that come here can't shake my faith. Gotama Buddha preached the dharma to save us clearly, knowing that all conditioned dharmas are the five aggregates: the aggregate of form, the aggregate of feeling, the aggregate of perception, the aggregate of formations, the aggregate of consciousness, the aggregate of form. , nama-dhamma are impermanent, not stable, not eternal. Go away, don't stand in front of my gate anymore! Hearing the harsh criticism of the male assistant Sūrambaṭṭha, Armatian could not say a word, so he disappeared there. In the afternoon, the male attendant Sūrambaṭṭha ​​went to the Jetavana temple to pay homage to the Blessed One, and then recounted the story of the Armatian who came to stand at the gate of the house, saying: - Dear World-Honored One, Armatian tried, but could not make faith in the Three Jewels: my Buddha, the Dharma, and my Sangha. move like that. White Sir. On the occasion of such a story about the male Sūrambaṭṭha, at the Jetavana temple, among the four groups of disciples, the World-Honored One praised Sūrambaṭṭha ​​as: "Etadaggaṃ bhikkhave, mama sāvakānaṃ upāsakānaṃ aveccappasannānaṃ yadidaṃ Sūro ambaṭṭho." - O monks! Sūrambaṭṭha ​​is a close-knit male who has faith in the first and unshakable Three Jewels, in the ranks of the Tathagata's disciples. In this present life, near-male Sūrambaṭṭha ​​has achieved the title of near-masculine-man whose faith in the First Three Jewels is firm and unshakable, in the ranks of male-dominated written disciple of Buddha Gotama, it is the result of countless past lives since the previous life of the male near-mad Sūrambaṭṭha ​​met the Buddha Padumuttara in the past, made a vow and received the Buddha's vows. life sign. Faith in the Three Jewels In order to have firm faith in the Three Jewels, shravaka disciples must not only have pure faith in the Three Jewels but also have wisdom in the three dharmas as follows: - Dharma-study of Buddhism (Pariyatti sāsana). - Buddhist practice (Paṭipatti sāsana). - Dharma-to-Buddhist (Pativedha sāsana). 1- Buddhist dharma-study (Pariyatti sāsana) that is to learn, memorize by heart, thoroughly understand the Pāḷi Tripitaka and the Pāḷi Commentary, the teaching of Gotama Buddha, to serve as the basic foundation for Buddhism. Buddhist practice. 2- Buddhist practice (Paṭipatti sāsana) which is the practice of morality for purity and perfection as the foundation for the practice of meditation practice is developed leading to the attainment of the 5 jhānas. form-world good-mind, 4 stages of formless meditation-goodness-mind as the foundation for practicing dharma-practice meditation-wisdom leading to the realization of the truth of the four Noble Truths, the attainment of the 4 Noble Truths, 4 Sainthood and Nirvana, eliminating all craving, all afflictions, becoming the 4 Saints in Buddhism. 3- Dharma-to-Buddhist (Pativedha sāsana) which is the 4 Noble Paths, 4 Saints-Results and Nirvana, called the 9 super-three worlds (navalokuttaradhamma). 4 Magga : 1- Enter-save the Holy-Path (Sotāpattimagga). 2- One-return Saint-Path (Sakadāgāmimagga). 3- Non-returning Saint-Path (Anāgāmimagga). 4- Arahant of the Holy Path (Arahattamagga). 4 Holy Fruits (Phala): 1- Enter-save Saint-fruit (Sotāpattiphala). 2- One-return Saint-fruit (Sakadāgāmiphala). 3- Real-return Saint-fruit (Anāgāmiphala). 4- Arahant Holy Fruit (Arahattaphala).

In fact, only a sage can truly have faith in the unshakable Three Jewels, because each sage has eradicated defilements as follows: * The entry-level Saint has eradicated two kinds of afflictions, which are wrong views and doubts. * The Noble One-returner has eradicated a kind of affliction, which is coarse anger. * The Holy Real-Returner has eradicated a type of affliction, which is the subtle type of anger. * The Arahant has eradicated the remaining 7 kinds of afflictions: greed, delusion, conceit, boredom, distraction, no shame, no guilt, no fear. sin - sin no longer exists. Therefore, there are only four sages who definitely have faith in the Three Jewels that are firm and unshakable.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.11/10/2021.
