THE BINH NIRVAN SUTRA. Thich-Tam-Chau translates Chinese characters into Vietnamese characters IV. The Buddha Meets the Lysa Sect Tomorrow morning, the World-Honored One, wearing a robe, carrying a bowl, and Ananda entered the city for alms. After begging for food, he returned to the Chong-Lecture halls. After eating, he rinsed his mouth, washed it practically, and then he and the Bhikkhus went to Can-tu village. The way to this village must go through the city of Ti-Da-Ly. When he passed this city, he turned around, looked up at the city, and smiled. Ananda, seeing this, immediately bowed his head to the Buddha's feet and asked the Buddha: "O World-Honored One! The Supreme-Religious One must laugh with grace, so I respectfully ask the World-Honored One to let me know!" The Buddha replied: "Mr Ananda! The reason I am smiling is because this is the last time, I see this city!" While the Tathagata uttered these words, in the void, without clouds, it rained naturally. Mr. Ananda saw this and said to the Buddha: “O Blessed One! Very strange, pure space, not covered by any low air, suddenly rained down with such a heavy rain?" The Buddha said to Mr. Ananda: "Mr. Ananda! Do you know what it is, these are the gods in the air, hear me say this is the last time I see this city of Vairocana, the hearts of the gods are so heart-wrenching, so sorry to cry- snakehead. Those are the tears of the gods, not the rain!" Ananda and the bhikkhus, after hearing the Buddha's words, became sad again, sadly fainted on the ground, said to the Buddha: "O World-Honored One! Today, the gods and humans suffer so much, how could the World-Honored One want to let go and enter Nirvana!" The Tathagata immediately comforted them with a blasphemy: "Gentlemen! You should not give birth to worry-sadness, grief-stricken mind!. The Bhikkhus said to the Buddha: "O World-Honored One! Now for the last time the World-Honored One will look at this city of Vairocana, and it won't be long before the World-Honored One will enter Nirvana, how can we not be sad and miserable!" Gradually like that, people told each other, the word spread to even the Ly-Sa (Licchavi)[18]. This Lyza, having heard these words, was filled with sorrow, with blood all over their bodies, waving their arms, scratching their heads, beating their breasts, and crying out: "Alas, what a pain! The eyes of the world are about to be lost; sentient beings today have no place of refuge anymore!” Then they said to each other: "Now we should go to the Buddha's place, and urge him to stay in Vairocana and stay in the realm of life for one kalpa or young for one kalpa, benefiting the gods, the people of the world". Having said that, they immediately adjusted their vehicles and went right to the Buddha's place. Outside the city gate, they saw the Tathagata in the distance, and saw Ananda, together with the Bhikkhus, weeping and weeping, sad, and clothed. the Lyza people were even more moved and sympathized. They immediately went to the place where the Buddha was, bowed down to the Buddha's feet and said, "O World-Honored One! Now, the World-Honored One, about to enter Nirvana, all living beings will lose the eye of wisdom; sentient beings are in a dark place, how can they see what should be done. May the World-Honored One stay for one kalpa or not one kalpa, enter Nirvana!” They invited the World-Honored One to come three times, the Buddha replied: "All conditioned dharmas[19] belong to impermanence; whether I stay in the realm of life for one kalpa or not for one kalpa, I will return to impermanence!” At that time, the Tathagata immediately spoke a verse: Mount Tu-Di is high, and then must also perish. Even though the sea is wide and deep, it must also dry up. Japan, the moon, though in the morning, Some Western diving. The earth is solid, Bearing all things; Life ends fire burning karma, Also back to impermanence. The union of affection, All about the place of separation. As-Come-back past life, Body-diamond-indestructible; Also changed by impermanence, Am I different now? The Buddha Dharma is like that, You should not ask; Not only for me, But born worry, sad! When the World-Honored One had said that verse, he said to the Lyza clansmen: "You should stop crying and listen carefully to the Tathagata's last words!" The other Lyzas said, "How precious, O World-Honored One! Please tell us, we wish to hear." At that time, the Tathagata spread out his cushions, sat down to join his family, the Bhikkhus, and the other Lyza clansmen, restrained themselves, and sat to one side. The Blessed One told the other Lyzas: "You should know that there are seven methods, which are progressing more and more: First, being cheerful and harmonious, not contradicting each other. Second, be enlightened together and talk about good karma. Three is, keep the precepts and keep the rituals. Fourth, respect parents and other elders. The fifth is, the close-reciprocal, mutually agreeable. Sixth, the domestic temple tower, repair-consecration. Seven is, to obey the Buddha-Dharma, to respect the Bhikkhu and Bhikkhuni; lovingly helping the Upasakas and Upasakas. If anyone is willing to do these seven dharmas, that person's prestige will increase day by day, the country will prosper, and the people will be happy. From now until the end of your life, you should observe these seven dharmas and not be lazy!" Those of the Lyza lineage said to the Buddha: "O World-Honored One! Out of these seven dharmas, if we can only cultivate one dharma, but still increase our prestige, how much more can we fully cultivate all seven dharmas! How precious, O World-Honored One! Now that we have this benefit, we will obey it for the rest of our lives, not daring to forget it!" The Buddha said to the bhikkhus: “From now on, you should also practice the following seven dharmas: First, be joyful and harmonious, like water and milk. Second, often gather together to lecture on the sutras. Third, keep the precepts forbidden, do not generate thought-violation. Fourth, revere the teacher and the Supreme Beings. Fifth, take care of the arrangement and respect the Bhikkhus who meditate in Alanha. Sixth, promoting the Vietnamese lute, repairing the Three Jewels and resting places in the abode. Seven is diligent, diligent, and diligent in preserving the Buddha-Dharma. You should know that if any bhikkhu can do these seven dharmas, his merit and wisdom will increase day by day!” “Bhikkhus! Again there are seven dharmas, you should practice: First, you should not be like a household-business-business. Second, do not talk nonsense, joke. Third, do not crave sleep-rest, give up the effort. Fourth, do not discuss worldly things in vain. Fifth, stay away from evil friends, stay close to good friends. Sixth, often think righteously, do not give birth to wrong-thoughts. Seventh, if in the Buddha-Dharma, there is a place to be certified, it will be more progressive. If you can do these seven things, your merit and wisdom will increase day by day.” “Bhikkhus! There are seven more dharmas that you should do: First, towards the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha, give rise to firm faith. Second, be ashamed. Third, know tigers. Fourth, the mind is often eager to hear a lot. Fifth, the mind is not shocked. Sixth, eager to hear the meaning of sutras. Seven is, desire to practice-intellectual. If you cultivate these seven dharmas, your merit and wisdom will increase day by day.” “Bhikkhus! Again there are seven "enlightenment-mind" [20], you should do: First, investigate the dharma (choose the dharma). Second, fine-advancement. Third, joy (happy). Fourth, disdain (mild-joy). Five is, mindfulness (remember to think). Six is, concentration (meditation). Seven is, discharge (to shake off). If you can do these seven dharmas, your merit and wisdom will increase day by day.” “Bhikkhus! Again there are seven dharmas: One is, impermanent shop. Second, the shop is not-self. Third, contemplation of impurity. Fourth, contemplating suffering. Fifth, do not be greedy for the world. Sixth, do not love the five-sex[21]. Seven is, diligently cultivate the path of extinction (Nirvana). If you can do these seven dharmas, your merit and wisdom will increase day by day.” “Bhikkhus! Again there are seven dharmas, you should do: First, the body often does good (from). Second, the mouth often heals. Third, the mind often does good. Fourth, if there is a Vietnamese lute, give everything, distribute it equally, and should not be biased. Fifth, deep-rooted Dharma, eager to talk without getting bored. Sixth, do not teach people from worldly books. Seventh, seeing people who do not study, do not generate jealousy. If you cultivate these seven dharmas, your merit and wisdom will increase day by day.” “Bhikkhus! Again there are seven dharmas, you should do: First, distinguish clearly nine sets of dharmas[22]. Second, clarify that meaning. Third, practice-practice, chant-practice, must be timely. Fourth, walking, standing, sitting, lying down in the correct manner. Fifth, preaching the Dharma to people who have to measure their own strength. Sixth, if brahmins, slays, elders, and laypeople, want to listen to the dharma again, they should compare and speak according to the basis of their faculties. Seven is, divide the stupid, wise. If you can do these seven dharmas, your merit and wisdom will increase day by day, you will be able to uphold my righteous dharma!" At that time, the wives of the Lysa tribe heard that the Buddha would soon enter Nirvana, and this was the last time he looked at the city of Vidaly, their hearts were very depressed, mourning and weeping. , together with five hundred relatives, procured five hundred chariots, carrying offerings. All vehicles are dignified: the chariots are pulled by white buffaloes, and when they hang pure white phantoms; until the purple, black, and yellow carriages..., all follow the color of buffalo that is bare-metal. The cars are dignified, they went out of the city one by one to the Buddha's place. At that time, when the World-Honored One saw them from afar, he said to the monks: Have you seen the wives of the Lysa lineage, before and after, they are very beautiful-- Strictly, beautiful to go here? The Bhikkhus replied: "Yes, we have seen it." The Buddha said to the bhikkhus: "These are the Lysa people, the bourgeois and their wives from this city of Vaisali, their entrance and exit, very polished, like The gods in the Dao-li heaven are no different!" When the wives of the other Lysa lineage came to the Buddha's place, bowed their heads to the Buddha's feet, mourning and weeping, unable to restrain themselves; they brought offerings to the Buddha and said, "O World-Honored One! May the World-Honored One stay in the realm of life and teach sentient beings. If now the World-Honored One enters Nirvana, we will be blind and forever unable to be enlightened. Besides, we are fortunate enough to be born in the female body, often have obstacles, are not free, and have no predestined relationship to always be close to the Blessed One, and the Blessed One is about to enter again. Nirvana, our good roots are getting worse and worse!" At that time, the Tathagata immediately replied: "From now on until the end of life, you should keep the precepts diligently, like someone who keeps an eye; righteous thoughts, don't give birth to envy and jealousy, that means seeing me often!" The wives of the other Lyza lineage, hearing the Buddha say that, became more and more compassionate, sad, and unable to restrain themselves, so they sat back to one side. At that time, the righteous-faced Ambra (Amra), the first in the world, hearing the Buddha soon, will enter Nirvana, now for the last time, he looks at the city of Bhikkhu- Da-Ly, she was filled with compassion, her clothes, and her tears, and her five hundred relatives, dignified five hundred chariots, one by one out of the city, to the Buddha's place. At that time, when the Blessed One saw them from afar, he said to the bhikkhus: "Gentlemen! Now the Am-brahma has come to Me, and her appearance is wonderful and wonderful, in all the world, no one can match her. You should all be righteous, righteous, and not have thoughts of passion. As a bhikkhu should contemplate this body, there are unclean things: liver, bile, stomach, intestines, heart, lungs, kidneys, spleen, excrement, excrement, blood, pus, etc. unclean things, and there are eighty thousand insects right there, and hair, hair, nails, teeth, thin skin covered with flesh, nine holes that flow constantly[23]... . Again, the first basis that gives birth to this body, by virtue of its impurity and its habitability, causes the impurity to flow. Though adorned with colorful silks and perfumed with perfumes, but, like in a treasure pot containing unclean things. And, when the body dies, it is rotten, decayed, burned and broken, with worms in the body, but it eats meat again; also being pecked by a leopard, an owl, a falcon... pecking at. People of the world are stupid, do not know how to contemplate righteously, indulge in love, keep it until death, and in it, hope and lust arise. What kind of person would have such a desire?" The World-Honored One immediately said the verse: Although wearing clothes he-lac[24], Perfume, flowers self-edit; Stool, solution with the same nose, drool, Real-pure filled in. Sentient beings cherish, keep, Me-lam not enlightened; Just as the ashes cover the fire, so do the fools go up. Wisdom-false should avoid, Do not generate mind-contamination first. At that time, Am-brahma came before the Buddha, bowed her head to the feet of the Buddha, brought offerings, made offerings to the Buddha, swallowed her tears, and said to the Buddha: "O World-Honored One! May the World-Honored One remain in the realm of longevity, remain in the world, and not enter Nirvana, benefit the gods and the people of the world. If the World-Honored One was to enter Nirvana, all sentient beings would have no one to guide them, like a child who has lost a good mother!" At that time, the World-Honored One said to Ambrala: "The nature and characteristics of all such things, now you should not give birth to a mind of compassion!" The World-Honored One immediately preached the Dharma to all the people who came to the Buddha to hear: "Hey guys! From now on, you should keep the precepts, not omissions or violations. Those who break the precepts, the gods, the dragons, the demons, are all disgusted, the bad reputation is spread, and people don't want to see it; if in them, there is no mighty virtue, the good-demonic-gods are not guarded; When life is about to be lost, the mind is afraid, and even if there is a little good karma, it does not remember to think, dies immediately according to karma, suffers in hell, goes through many lives, then comes out and suffers again. make the body fall-demons, animals-animals. Just keep rotating, so, do not know when will be liberated. On the contrary, the Bhikkhu-precepts keep the precepts, Thien, dragon, demon-gods, are all reverent, good reputation spread all over, the whole world or; Among the people, his virtues and virtues flourished, and good spirits and demons often followed their guardians, and when their lives were about to die, their righteous thoughts were divided, and they were born in pure places when they died." In the midst of the Tathagata speaking that Dharma, sixty-eight thousand billion Thien, Human eight sets of far-off-naked-structure[25] are pure eye-eyes[26]; sixty Bhikkhus, smuggled-karma out, mind-opening-explanation[27], into A-la-Han [28]. At that time the World-Honored One said to the Lysa tribesmen, their wives, and the Ambara woman: "Now that I want to go to the village of Can-do, you should all return to your places of residence, and you should know: all signs (things) are impermanent, you should only practice according to the dharmas I said, you shouldn't act like a crying child, taking pity on your clothes- Brain! ' Then the Blessed One rose from his seat. The Lyxas, their wives and the Am-brahma, heard the Buddha say this, beat their breasts, ripped their heads off, cried out, wept, followed the Buddha's footsteps and refused to return. When the World-Honored One saw such deep affection, unable to comfort him with words, he immediately used his supernatural powers to make the river flooded, its banks deep, and the waves to flow. soaring. At that time, the Lysa people, their wives and the Am-brahma saw the Tathagata, the Bhikkhus already on the other side of the river, all the more moved, compassionate, and sad. filthy, struggling to roll on the ground, whispering to each other: "Strange, suddenly there is this big river here, but there are scary crashing waves? Surely the Tathagata, seeing that we were following, did not give up, but turned it into such a way, so that the way would end!" Those Lyzas with their wives and Ambrala, unable to cross the river, the more sobbing, choking, choking, and desperate to return. At that time, when the Tathagata came to the village of Can-do, he sat in the northern forest and said to the monks: "You should know that there are four dharmas: One is morality, two is concentration, three is wisdom, four is Liberation, if anyone does not hear and know these four dharmas, that person will forever be in the pool of birth and death. In the past, if I hadn't heard of these four dharmas, I wouldn't have been able to realize the path and fruition of the Unsurpassed Righteous Enlightenment! The World-Honored One immediately said the verse: Precepts, Concentration, Wisdom, Liberation, If I don't listen for a long time; Unable to quickly prove, the true-unsurpassed Tao. You should be diligent, Tu-practice the four French; End the suffering of birth-and-death, The most blessed field of Heaven and Humanity. After the Blessed One had spoken that verse, he again distinguished and expounded the meanings of these four dharmas for the Bhikkhus. While the Tathagata spoke these dharmas, one thousand and two hundred bhikkhus, instantly for all dharmas, all contraband-karma ends, the mind is open-minded, and he becomes an Arahant. TOAT-YUU On the way to Can-do village, you have to go through the city of Tí-da-ly. When the Blessed One passed through this city, he looked up and smiled - his smile signifying farewell. Meanwhile, the gods in the sky wept, tears falling like rain. The bhikkhus are sad again! Therefore, the people of the Lyxa lineage, in the city of Vidaly heard about it, gathered together to worship the Buddha and asked the Buddha to stay in the world, the Buddha taught: "Things are impermanent: Mount Tu-di , the vast sea, the sun, the moon, the earth, the love-body, the diamond body... are all moved by impermanence! Well, don't ask me anymore! Please listen carefully to what I say about the following seven dharmas: 1/ Have fun, get along with each other. 2/ Enlighten each other and discuss good karma. 3/ Keep precepts and rituals. 4/ Respect your parents and elders. 5/ Dear-like-reconciliation-items that are mutually agreeable. 6/ Repairing, making offerings to temples and pagodas in the country. 7/ Keeping the Buddha-Dharma, respecting the bhikkhus and cherishing good men and women. He turned to the Bhikkhus, teaching them many practical dharmas that need to be practiced[29]. After that, the wives of the Lyxas came to worship the Buddha and also asked the Buddha to stay in the world. The Buddha did not accept the advice and advised: "You should keep your precepts diligently and your thoughts straight, don't brag, be jealous, just like I am in the world!" It's the turn of the Ambas. She is a person of great beauty. In order to prevent their minds from arising, before she arrived, the Buddha told the assembly about the contemplation of impurity. She came, bowed to the Buddha, invited the Buddha, and the Buddha taught the same way as those who came before. Again, His Holiness advised all to keep the precepts pure, not to fall short. And, He talked about the advantages and disadvantages of people who keep the precepts and break them. Finally, he left to go to Can-do village. Because of the charm of everyone who decided to follow Him and not return, He had to turn into a river separating the two in order to go. Arriving in Can-Do village, he taught the Bhikkhus about the four dharmas: Precepts, Concentration, Wisdom and Liberation.END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=BUDDHIST DHARMA WHEEL GOLDEN MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMAN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY=13/10/2022.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.
