Settle down in the summer to practice the teachings of the Buddha. According to the Vinaya: “The summer retreat season is a time, an opportunity for monks, nuns, and practitioners to settle down, strengthen their inner strength, increase merit and virtue, solidify their faith, and complete their precepts in the world. the spirit of the continental republic". To perform the duties of a monastic, the 3-month period of seclusion is to be diligent in studying the Dharma, practicing the Dharma, observing the precepts, making merit, virtue, and moral strength grow, worthy of being a refuge. blessings of home Buddhists. So in the Mahaparinirvana Sutra, the third chapter, the Buddha said: "O monks! The holy city of Dharma is adorned with all kinds of merit and precious treasures, which are Precepts, Concentration, and Wisdom to make a solid wall." Those who follow the Buddha's teachings, need to pay attention to the Tam no contraband learning, in order to have more sublimation on the path to find enlightenment. Therefore,These three dharmas are the source of all merit, as well as bringing peace and nirvana to the practitioner. Therefore, for monastics, on the path of cultivation and learning, we first need to purify our body and mind, get out of the dust, get rid of karmic obstacles, get rid of resentment (greed, anger, delusion), get away from craving, achieve success. virtues. So in the Fourty-two Chapters, chapter 24; The Buddha said: “Of all the kinds of craving, there is nothing more worrisome than sensual pleasures. The great desire for beauty is incomparable. Luckily, it's only one. If there were two such things, no one in the whole world would be able to cultivate the Way!" Therefore, for those who have left home to practice the Way, first of all, they must eliminate the internal habit, in order to overcome the ritual, externally, cut off the desire to eliminate craving. Both of them will work together and will succeed. Because the seed of the root of craving is too deep, birth and death are endless. Humans are born because of lust,Death is also caused by lust, that is the common sense of the world, and according to the world, we live and die continuously. So the biggest defect of sentient beings is delusion, living day and night in delusion, unable to let go. Cultivators need to be able to transform their eagerness into a mind of studying the Buddhadharma, and without forgetting their practice every minute, they will quickly become a Buddha. An unpolluted body is a Buddha; contaminated bodies (ie, not seeing through, not being able to discharge, every hour and every minute, always giving rise to delusions) are sentient beings. That's why the Buddha said: "Be careful, don't look at beautiful women." Daoists, when fire comes, should stay away. What does "fire" mean? Here, "fire" is the metaphor for lust and love, and also the desire for the realms of the six worlds. The six senses belong to love, and the six senses belong to the scene. All six senses (eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body,mind) in harmony with the six senses (forms, sounds, scents, smells, touches, and dharmas) make people so infatuated with soot, so infatuated that they "live and die in dreams". Therefore, Taoists see sensual pleasures and must avoid them. If a monastic person comes into contact with the world without being immersed, it's okay; but if you can't do that, you need to strictly practice "far away" that is, stay away from the fire of desire. The value of practice, cultivating virtue, holy life and increasing virtuous force, experiencing the truth is inconceivable. Even the Buddha and the noble disciples, who have attained the path, achieved the ultimate goal of enlightenment, liberation, and nirvana, always abide in right mindfulness, meditate, and live by insight, and do an example of strictly observing the precepts, the law of doubt, diligently practicing morality and holy life for Buddhists to follow.They always act as a refuge for the masses, using their body and speech to promote the spirit of preaching the Dharma and benefit sentient beings. Therefore, when a person cultivates the Way, removes all impurities, his mind is purified, "returns to the origin" (returns to the original source) and finds his own pure mind. The Buddha taught that we should use our direct mind to cultivate the Way and think about it. In each thought, we should make the release of the sexual circle as our goal. Love and lust are mud, we need to get out of that mud. Therefore, people who study the Buddhadharma need to use wisdom, not emotions. Using wisdom to study the Buddhadharma is Fa-rectification. Using emotions to study the Buddha Fa is the end of the Fa. The true path that the Blessed One has shown, because he has passed, now transmits it to sentient beings. So in the Dhammapada, verse 183,The Tathagata teaches: "Do not do all evil Accomplish good deeds Keep the mind pure. It is the Buddha's teaching." Settlement in the summer to practice the teachings of the Buddha image 1 Precepts are the most necessary thing for monastics because "The precepts are the life span of the Buddha's teachings. This is also the main idea of the Buddhadharma that Master O Sao taught to Bach Cu Di. However, in order to eliminate evil, achieve good deeds, and keep a pure mind, the practitioner must rely on the three trainings of non-outflow: "discipline, concentration, and wisdom". Therefore, in the Anguttara Nikāya 1, chapter 3, section Grain of Salt, the Urgent section, the Buddha pointed out: "Once, the Blessed One was staying at Kasala, teaching the bhikkhus to have three urgent things. owner needs to do. What is three? Here, bhikkhus, a farmer, a householder, is quick to plow his field and harrow it well. After quickly plowing, skillfully harrowing the field,quickly sow the seed, and quickly put water in and water out. These, monks, are the three urgent things that a farmer and householder should do. In the same way, bhikkhus, there are these three urgent tasks which a bhikkhu must do. What is three? Comply with the higher precepts, the higher concentration studies, and the higher wisdom studies. These three urgent tasks, monks, are to be done. Therefore, bhikkhus, it is necessary to study as follows: sharpness will be our desire to observe the higher precepts; sharpness will be one's desire to practice the high school of concentration; Sharpness will be one's desire to practice the higher wisdom learning. Thus, bhikkhus, you should study." The farmer wants a bountiful harvest, he needs to do three things: plowing, sowing, and directing water, an important factor for healthy rice plants and high harvests.profitable for growers. Likewise, Buddhist practitioners, if they want to be peaceful, happy, enlightened and liberated, need to focus on the three precepts, concentration, and wisdom as the foundation of their practice. According to the Great Eight Nirvana Sutra, before his death, the Blessed One still wanted to instruct his disciples to leave home, the necessary things on the path to liberation, he just wanted the disciples to rely on. To practice the Dharma, it is not necessary to have a leader. "Dharma and Discipline, I have taught and expounded, Ananda, after I pass away, it will be that Dhamma and Discipline that will be your Teacher." So as long as the bhikkhus diligently study the teachings, cultivate moral conduct, and practice meditation, in order to expand their wisdom, there is no need to search for liberation anywhere. Because the Buddha was worried about those who would later seek a leader to rely on or an external truth,So in the last minutes, the Buddha taught: "Ananda, those who, after I have passed away, are themselves a lamp, rely on themselves, rely on nothing else, use the Dharma as their main source of power. lamp, using the Righteous Dharma as a refuge, without relying on any other dharma, such people, Ananda, are the foremost among my bhikkhus, if they are eager to learn." So it is the Dharma that is the eternal truth that the Buddha preached to mankind. Surely the Dharma-rectification is not something abstract, blind, and obscure beyond human comprehension, but a reality that can be reached by anyone. It is not limited by space and time. Settle in Kiet Ha to practice the teachings of the Buddha Image 2 Cultivators need to be able to turn their eagerness into a mind to practice and study the Buddhadharma.If you don't forget to practice and study every hour, you will quickly become a Buddha. So the precepts are the most necessary thing for monastics because “The precepts are the life span of the Buddhadharma. As long as the precepts remain, the Buddhadharma remains." The Buddha's last words before entering Nirvana: "Hey! You have to light your own torch! Please take my Dharma as a torch! Follow my Dharma and free yourself! Do not seek liberation in anyone else, do not seek liberation in any other place, but you..." Thus, the monastic must have a solid spiritual foundation. In order to be worthy of being the messengers of the Tathagata, the venerable body of the sages, without shame, the monastic must lead a holy life of "superior profaneity," which is the contribution made by the virtues of others. monastic life, whose merit is built on the basis of precepts,towards the ultimate purity, the cessation of all impurities, the submission to the aspirational needs of worldly life... cultivating virtue in every moment, cultivating virtue becomes one's own breath, dignified with precepts that is good ground, to cultivate Heart Virtue, Wisdom Virtue, Wisdom Virtue, and Virtue, worthy growth of kusala, to develop right perception. Living in the Dharma, realizing Nirvana, the mind is completely pure, will be the driving force for the generation of wisdom, will gain insight, liberation, establish yourself a calm demeanor , serenity, is to create true happiness in the present. This is the basis of faith and respect that makes our monastics more steadfast on the path of propagating the righteous Dharma for the benefit of all living beings.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.14/6/2022.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.
