Title

The other day, when I was preparing to write the preface to this book, there is a monk to visit, and asked:

- The renunciation must have done something?

I love it replied:

- Bridge director, as director.

He asked:

- May direct and the most basic to do?

I say:

- Being in prison by moral virtue.

The increase was immediately said:

- Oh, he is very stubborn! The upper air base is beneficial because of the wisdom that the director, who commissioned the only air base implant only religious blessing. So, who is not ordained to pray for the wisdom, which wisdom is full of all natural, no need to cultivate moral training, practice virtue?

I heard it, our very afraid, but still really small:

- The ancients used to say, morality is a fundamental human origin. Say, in the world who want to make big media, big work, first order of temperament and talent, let alone law of Buddha, supreme enlightenment, profound magic acts, ordinary people can probably do arbitrary reception, leading the star treatment?

Just like the lion's milk, which was unprecedented, but does not know how to use and save precious jars to store glasses, to bring out the piece of crockery, average land is not wasted, for the decay or what? Re like a athlete, carrying a thousand pounds heavier peak, climbed into the boat leaves little, how to avoid the accident that killed the boat flipped?

Today, the renouncer had little knowledge, they've learned to rush collective nature notes, research, clerical ... is like the Confucian scholar specializing bookworms. The knowledge level a little further, the single-range plan criticized the teachings of the ancient people, to borrow a machine, edit copy into their books and for that; grasp things residues, such as petty brick and tile waste ... Patriarch of you have left, so that was just for his compositions; it right is to drop the ball game, for nothing, as opposed to those who are made fun place! The class of people, teaching experience very eloquent sermon heard, every word of each sentence are subtle like the Buddhas words, word group, highly intelligent, but the survey to their behavior is like any ordinary people who continue death. Degenerate period, the corruption of people like it very much!

I was nervous, afraid of those who fall into the situation in agriculture so as said above, so the new collection, record of the ancient virtuous, taken some substantial part, divided into ten categories. Ten was what?

Giving up all the pollution of secular, called renunciation. Renunciation, the first thing to mention is the noble and simple, so, that virtuous practitioner must first learn to follow the bar element . But the high bar that is not strictly the practice of those who do crazy high degrees. Learners must collect certain Buddhist three professional photographic mind, calm the mind to new business opportunities direct achievements, so that virtuous Monday to learn is strictly primary . Acts of the need to rely strictly teacher teaches, avoid new mistakes. The teacher is the didactic level, raising it to people, so Tuesday it is virtuous to Sun engineers . There is one birth parent, adopted our older, can receive the education of teachers, parents miss and acknowledgment is disloyalty, death of. Moreover, morality laws but many suspect, but the most important thing is taste well, so, Wednesday is virtuous Hieu body . Who came from loyal son who. High moral integrity must taste, just know the spirit, not a gift that monarchy, then that country is free from acts of self-interest. In the book says: "a man of fortune, ten thousand people are due", is meant to be an imperial order, the virtuous regent's national security Thoi, so that we can be of family, freedom rivers and streams throughout the mountains to practice solitude. Indian country is a huge change! So Thursday it is virtuous to be loyal to the country, Chinese military . But if the only known high moral force, that is only to communicate back and forth with all levels of government leaders, but not interested in people who have supported his benefactors practice round is not morality. Should need to remember those who think the Western foot of mud, the poor and the destitute, it is virtuous Friday, From object . From the very close and loving. The birth of patriotism in which infection is a major obstacle to spiritual practice, therefore, it is virtuous to live for Saturday is sublime . But Noble does not mean she was the pride. The part of the distance to people is to practice alone, one hand is to improve ourselves, to complete the network origin of his own, then, when the wife has profound practice then naturally lead well like the bright, when he was at the back of all beings. It is virtuous eighth, Tri important . Maintenance is important that careful retreat, click the bar to find place like nothing was reluctant, because virtue is not deep, so bear hardships , it is virtuous ninth. However, some feared the hardships in life that go to mountains, to monastic retreat, evade the birth, becomes of the brokenhearted, eating little Buddhist, that is not the act of hardship that is to train life, spirituality has been thwarted. Once the mind has been directed not to rot back then did not dare to do mischief. In fact, direct application of causality does not leave a message someone, even as small as hairs, dust still others never wrong. Therefore, the renunciation can not think of retribution effects, which the virtuous tenth sensor , that is to always keep in mind the law of causality.

Ten virtuous practice above, if fully completed, the new piety, became talent can afford to receive the Dharma. As land has been improved fertility, fertility can then crop, sowing is better fresh. Soil mind, too, was once the logic pure and could signal life maintenance; large direct the high supreme Bodhi can expect success. Without the words above to practice is just a ordinary ward with gonorrhea alone!

Whose morality do not do, how to study Buddhism? Although he is a good upper air base, a financial intelligence cartridge case, also harmful only. The higher mental power, the greater the obstacle, the more difficult achievement practice. Those who have no virtue so how can people ordained priests?

When I finished speaking a few words on this, the monk was said:

- Dieu my practice of not setting up a speck of dust, not an object of this ancient, dusty newspaper where? Ten of his virtuous brought into use where?

I replied:

- It is clear that the aggregates matter, sensation, perception, knowledge is burning strong, disorder everywhere; four great locations, water, fire, style is all over the place causing trouble, why not say something?

The increase was controversial:

- Four college which has no general, the aggregates are not real capital.

I heard it before he was immediately approached for a slap, said:

- Currently, them have the imitation of the ancient words to express his insights very much. He replied not hit anywhere, try using your own insights he replied me.

The increase did not satisfy the angry left. Then I laughed and said,

- Now on the surface he looks full of anger, that's the dirt of the four elements and five aggregates there, so he does not wipe away!

Persons in need of attention! Know thyself up to small, do not own age, do not say Bat elegant outlook, inflation solution emptiness that true recipe for disaster. And a thousand thousand times would advise people not ordained as a bit of dirt bubble fame, vainglory that craving. Let's cultivate their moral qualities, bring all mental mind that practice, address an alum living dead, long flashes natural open mind, open the door step to the place of enlightenment, then there is the possible true associations, not operators nor ceiling infection; all day not accepted nor not accepted there, that's the First moral imperialism: Vacuum own magic. This is the true wisdom of the Buddha. Please let those ordained at once to take care.

I am very ashamed of directors of the association is still not large, more delicate virtues, this book, the purpose is mainly to save the diseases of the monastic day, to repay kindness the Buddhas only. The situation reached a thoroughly reasonable position, if not because of the shallowness of my seat, leaving out the omission, hopefully this book was circulated to everyone involved at the real meditation is how precious!END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY BACH LIEN HOA.NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).
