The Four Truths: Prince Siddhartha, after leaving the four gates of East, West, South, and North of Kapilavang City, he realized that birth, old age, illness, and death are all suffering, and human beings cannot be avoided because With compassion for sentient beings, he decided to give up the golden palace, the jade palace, the beautiful wife, and the obedient children to find a way to liberate birth, old age, sickness, and death. When he realized the truth, he showed people suffering, only the factors that cause suffering, He said that the cessation of suffering would lead to a happy fruition and he showed the way to practice to be free from suffering, in short, the Four Truths are: The Truth of Suffering, the Truth of the Truth, the Truth of the Dao, and the Truth of the Way. 1) The Truth of Suffering: Some people will think that life is suffering? Some people realize that they have nothing to suffer, but we try to look around, there are so many miserable situations, the poor have the suffering of the poor, the rich have the suffering of the rich. Suffering can be divided into two types: Three sufferings or Eight sufferings. 1) Three sufferings: a) Suffering: Being born as a human is already suffering, but there are bitterness in life that make us suffer more. b) Suffering: Changes in warm and cold weather, cold and hunger, wars, natural disasters, and floods all make people suffer. c) Destruction and suffering: Destructive things also make people suffer, for example, because our body is damaged, making people sick, sick, All are suffering, there are things we cherish but because of its destruction make us always miserable. 2) Eight sufferings: a) Birth: In everyone's life there is suffering, so it is said that birth is suffering. b) Elderly: Old age, poor health, or illness, impaired hearing, poor eyesight, these things always make the elderly feel miserable. c) Illness: All diseases cause the sick person to suffer. d) Death: As a human being, everyone is afraid of life and death. Death must give up unfinished business, leave loved ones, and give up possessions, so death is the greatest suffering for human beings. e) Asking for helplessness: What we want such as a beautiful house, a beautiful car .... but can't, there are people who want to take care of their parents but can't, teach their children to be good people but not, all work hard, suffering. g) Separation from suffering: Separation with loved ones such as separation from far away is also suffering, what more suffering is there? If one's loved one dies, this suffering is described as a gut-wrenching episode. h) The Five Warms of Suffering: The Warm Year is Warm Sac, Warm Feeling, Warm Thought, Warm Actions and Warm Consciousness are the things that make us suffer. i) Resentment and suffering: Things we hate but encounter are already unpleasant, people who hate each other but stay close to each other, often meet each other are all situations that cause us suffering. 2) FOUNDATION: Each person's current suffering is caused by the causes of previous lives, it binds and causes us to suffer retributions and afflictions, although there are many, but divided into ten things: 1) The afflictions The brain has a heavy nature: a) Greed: Desire causes injustice. b) Yard: Angry, hot, often do bad things. c) Si: ignorance, shallow mistakes. d) Manliness: High tribute is conceited, thinking that he or she is better than others, thereby doing wrong things. g) Suspicion: Doubt causes enmity, suspicion makes it difficult to have righteous faith. 2) Misperceptions: a) Body View: This body attachment is real. c) Bias: Acceptance has one side, not true. c) Wrong view: Seeing and knowing the wrong way, not right. d) Viewers: Trying to keep their views, knowing their mistakes, not realizing the truth. e) Precepts forbidden: Believing and practicing according to wrong precepts. 3) Cessation of Truth: The Buddha only showed that sentient beings need to end suffering. When suffering has ceased, it means that the mind always abides in stillness, eternally, and freed from samsara, called Nirvana. So Nirvana has three characteristics: 1) No more rebirth. 2) The mind is pure and quiet. 3) Get rid of all confusion and afflictions. The fruit of Nirvana is different, those who realize these Four Truths, belong to the Thanh Van ranks, have 4 results of sainthood: a) Tu Da Hoan: The Chinese translate it as "Luu Luu" which means to join the holy ranks or "Reverse" which means to go against those who do not practice; These people have understood the Four Noble Truths. b) Tu Da Ham: The Chinese translate it as Nhut born, which means that there is one more time to be born in the world of desire. c) A Na Ham: The Chinese translate as Real Lai, which means no longer being reborn in the sex world, but human birth is still there. d) Arahant: The Chinese translate as unborn, this fruition is the end of the Hinayana, reaching this fruition is no longer birth and death in the three worlds (the world of desire, the world of form and the world of formlessness). 4) GOD: As the path that leads one to Nirvana, here are the Eight Right Paths (Eightfold Path) to follow: a) Right View: What is sought, seen, and known according to the right path and not contrary to being explained. truth. b) Right thinking: What you think must be righteous things, not evil, evil, or cruel. c) Right speech: Speech must be straight, peaceful, and correct. d) Right Action: Action must be righteous and useful to everyone and all species. e) Right livelihood: Living and working must be righteous. g) Right Effort: Must advance on the path of cultivation. h) Mindfulness: Those who remember the past or the future only pay attention to the right things, the unrighteous things do not remember or think. i) Right Concentration: Concentrating according to the right method for wisdom to arise. The Truth of Suffering and the Truth of Origin are cause and effect in the world, and the Truth of Cessation and the Truth of Dao are cause and effect beyond the world. The Noble Truth of the Four Noble Truths consists only of the eight main paths, such as the elementary steps, which are the foundation for newcomers to the path. In fact, the main path of cultivation consists of 37 teaching aids, divided into 7 categories: 1) Four Foundations of Mindfulness (Contemplation of the impure body, the mind of impermanence, the contemplation of non-self, and the contemplation of life and suffering). 2) The Four Right Efforts (effort to prevent evil that has not yet arisen, effort to eliminate the evil that has already arisen, effort to develop good things that have not yet arisen, effort to develop good things that have already arisen). 3) Four like the will (Success is like the will, the effort is like the mind, one-pointed like the mind, and the contemplation is like the will). 4) Five faculties (faith, faith, mindfulness, concentration, wisdom). 5) The Five Powers (Patience, effort, mindfulness, concentration, wisdom). 6) The Seven Bodhi sections (Dharma investigation, effort, joy, contempt, mindfulness, concentration, and equanimity). 7) The Eightfold Path (Right View, Right Thought, Right Speech, Right Action, Right Livelihood, Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, Right Concentration).
