In a life full of thoughts and worries, there are times when we stop and calm down to listen to the wonderful things around us. And the fast-paced attraction of the rhythm of life has pulled us to unknown directions, forgetting about the spiritual life, understanding the connection between people and the real world around them. All desperately need a message of loving, selfless and understanding connection. “By listening we understand, through understanding we can heal and erase the streaks, patches, scratches that life bestows on each person. Listen to be more sympathetic to the pain of others. Listen to know you exist and be alive." Understanding manifests in people's experience with the outside world, derived from the point of view of others by perceiving from their point of view. This shows that we have a good understanding of ourselves, There is a catalysis between two people in the concept of love and sympathy for each other. Seen through the lens of Buddhism, understanding is the first step to developing and cultivating compassion. In a human life with many fluctuations and impermanence, if understanding does not exist firmly in each person's mind, it will be difficult for us to find deep love. Because if you don't understand the true value, love will fade away and can't exist. “Listen and understand – you will smile with me and tell them thank you, but I won't be as sad as you want, because I don't like to be sad, and I don't know what to be sad for. . Then you have succeeded and happiness will return to you, right now and there in your soul”.[1] A good speaker is not equal to a good listener. Communication is not just about how we say it, but it also requires us to listen with our ears, with our hearts, and with our minds. If someone speaks, there must be a listener. Each of us wants, when communicating with others, to be able to speak honestly and impress the other person. But we seem to forget that the one who gets the most attention is not the one who talks the most, but the one who listens the most. Knowing how to listen helps us to know the hidden meanings, interests, desires, joys and sorrows, .. of those around us. Listening was a precious gift before it was adorned with words of encouragement and encouragement. “By listening we understand, through understanding we can heal and erase the streaks, patches, scratches that life bestows on each person. Listen to sympathize more with the pain of others. Listen to know you exist and be alive” [2]. Listen to see that the pain you experience is less than the joy you receive. Listening allows us to see the world more objectively. Wisdom is the gift of a lifetime of listening and silence at the right time. listen to understand and spread love in Buddhism that is Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva. When people are suffering, standing in front of His image, offering sincere prayers or painful lamentations, He always graciously smiles, joyfully listens and understands to give strength. strong love to them. When human life is buckling in the sea of ​​suffering, we can really understand: "Listen and feel only when there is suffering to realize the full value of happiness, only when you have failed will you see success. work is precious, If there is birth - old age - illness - death of a human life, then he suddenly wakes up from the coma in the middle of the world and returns to the wharf..." [3]. If people continue to live in a vicious circle of pettiness, selfishness and heartlessness, they will create an invisible wall separating themselves from everyone. Why don't we try to open our hearts and see things more objectively with tolerance, forgiveness and understanding? Just give a little love, we will bring others happiness, motivation to continue living a life with many hardships. Of course, even we ourselves will feel better and happier. From there, we will feel that there is an invisible string that gradually connects us and everyone together. In Buddhism, there are many stories about empathy, understanding from the soul to help spiritual life improve. The story goes that, King Thuan Tri was a Manchurian, when he unified China and met Zen Master Ngoc Lam, he realized that Zen Master was an old friend from a past life. Up to now, one person is king and the other is a monk. Although they have different circumstances, they are united in their hearts, so they understand each other deeply. King Thuan Tri appointed Ngoc Lam as the National Master. He recalled his previous life in the Western Pure Land, now he was born in this human world and created the karma of killing during seventeen years of war. He then gave up the throne, entered Ngu Dai mountain determined to practice, repent of the evil karma he created, in order to return to the Western Pure Land. Or a typical example is the case of King Luong Vo De and a monk at that time, the Most Venerable Chi Cong. The two were also great friends in their past lives. Although their living circumstances are different, they still respect each other when they see each other [4]. More than that, Understanding will open your heart with a warm, loving heart in the spirit of Buddhism, which is compassionate, selfless, and selfless living. “Through the concept of Altruism (English: altruism, altruist; French: altruisme, altruiste), we can simply understand, roughly speaking, for the sake of others, knowing love, tolerance, sharing… others, which is a form of behavior that loves others as if loving oneself or a good leaf takes care of a torn one in the Vietnamese sense of life, but also a basic quality and requirement of Buddhist teachings, related to the concept of Buddhism's love, compassion, joy, and equanimity with the principle of mutual benefit, selflessness, and selflessness" [5]. METHOD OF UNDERSTANDING AND Altruism With the motto "taking wisdom as a career", in today's language, Buddhism has indeed shown the spirit of globalization. "It is thanks to the wisdom torch of the Dharma that the Buddha's disciples, on the path of saving birth, living with the spirit of selflessness and altruism, have absorbed human civilization in the direction of integration and globalisation. "[6]. This core is often experienced by missionaries, called dependent but immutable, has helped Buddhism to exist and develop for more than two thousand years and to this day, Buddhism continues to be the guideline. lead people to live a peaceful and happy life. The four dharmas are considered as four principles the Buddha taught his disciples about how to live selflessly and transform sentient beings in a practical and useful way in life. When we fully implement the four dharmas, we will benefit in three ways. At first, individually, we benefit everyone, but in fact benefit both. Every action is a seed of karma, If you do a good deed, sow a good cause in it. If our work is praised and respected by everyone, we will definitely reap good results. Secondly, in terms of family, we will be loved and respected by our loved ones. With the virtue of touching people, we will become the main agents that bring happiness to the family. Maybe because of their affection for their virtue, the family becomes pure, good-oriented, harmonious above and below, and unspeakably happy. In terms of society, implementing the Four Regents is to benefit and help convert some social evils and extremes in the real situation. The more people follow the Fourfold Dharma, the more society improves, away from war, and brings peace and happiness. This single criterion alone is enough to see the contributions of Buddhism to humanity. “Listening and feeling only when there is suffering can we fully realize the value of happiness, having failure will see success as a precious thing, having birth - old age - illness - death of human life will suddenly awaken. sedated in the middle of the world but returned to the wharf..." It can be seen that in society, when summarized in a narrow as well as a wide range, for example: "Small as a family, as big as the whole world, If you want to reorganize into a group, the Four Photographers of the Law is an indispensable virtue. This is like the Buddha said, thereby taking over the whole world like a car that relies on the control of the Xa-hik. The Sangha of the Buddha is also dominated by that spirit. Again, the Buddha's lay disciple, the Head of the Head (Hatthaka), also thanks to the Four Regents, managed to capture the five hundred assembly and the Buddha often praised that outstanding achievement. Therefore, I can say that, if today we also apply the Fourfold Dharma to unite the unions, then surely the divisions will be reconciled” [7]. Our fundamental shortcoming is chasing after our temporary Self with cravings and cravings that can never be satisfied. People in modern society can live a comfortable and material life, but easily lack awareness and inner peace. Buddhism advocates an active altruistic life, for the benefit of all sentient beings. In the Theravada Buddhist scriptures, there are records of the Buddha's teachings, recommending that his disciples actively propagate and save birth, and especially practice the Four Laws to be close and beneficial to sentient beings. When we live altruistically, we will see happiness from our own mind, because living altruistically, we will see happiness from an altruistic mind, so we can enjoy the joys of the world. Because of the awakening of No-self, it is possible to start a fearless mind to live for the happiness of society. Because they clearly see impermanence, they actively do many good deeds. These positive factors need to be included in the content of human education [8]. Every action is a seed of karma, if you do a good deed, you will plant a good cause in it. Understanding and altruism is always human sympathy, sharing and companionship, all of which bring to life deep and respectful love. We are happy when we receive love and understanding from others and even happier when we can share love with everyone. "Giving is forever". In today's society, the source of love and understanding is being spread by beautiful actions, warm cold hearts in each devastating underground wave caused by the COVID-19 epidemic. It seems as simple and small as a bunch of vegetables, an egg, a carton of milk or even a loaf of bread, but to the recipient, it is a priceless and heartwarming gift in the midst of hardship. It can be said that altruism is the catalyst that helps people build good relationships and bring positive and peaceful energy to themselves and others.END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=BUDDHIST DHARMA WHEEL GOLDEN MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.13/6/2022.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.
