I. WHY SHOULD OFFER THE THREE BAGS: Buddhists are grateful to the Three Jewels, namely Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha; thanks to the Buddha found a way to get rid of the pool of suffering in the cycle of birth and death; after the Buddha entered Nirvana, thanks to his teachings left behind, life after life, Buddhists know the truth, thereby practicing to free suffering; and the Sangha are those who have made noble sacrifices, are the preconditions for keeping Buddhism alive and flourishing. Therefore, Buddhists respect the Three Jewels, make offerings to the Three Jewels in return for the virtues that the Three Jewels have bestowed on them, make offerings as well as give alms so that the Buddhist mind can be sublimated, cultivate merit, and renounce wealth. . II. PURPOSE OF THE OFFERING: The Buddha is a dualist, that is, he has enough blessings and wisdom, he can only sit in one place and still eat well and dress warmly. However, he also holds a bowl for alms every day, so that those who do not have compassion have the opportunity to practice compassion, so that those who offer food to the Buddha will be blessed in the next life. When Buddha was still in the world, there was a little boy who played children's games, made a house with branches, and used sand for rice. One day, when a boy was playing, he saw the Buddha going for alms. He carried a bowl of sand thinking it was rice. He sincerely offered it to the Buddha. Thanks to that life's rice bowl, in one of his later lives he enjoyed the reward of being a king; That was King Asoka, a king who stood in the first place to protect the Buddha's teachings, more than Luong Martial Emperor, King Asoka built a pillar to record the place of Buddha's birth, organized a collection of scriptures, and brought Buddhism to him. Ceylon, bring over there the Bodhi tree where the Buddha attained enlightenment, the jade Buddha Shariputra, whereby Theravada Buddhism was spread to Southeast Asia. III. HOW DO YOU ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS? 1) Make offerings to the Buddha: Build temples, offer statues to temples, cast bells, offer flowers, incense, incense, lamps, candles, contribute money to do the above or make offerings to the Tam Bao fund, the box of Phuoc dew , that is, Buddhists show gratitude and also to propagate Buddhism, making the Buddha's temple glorious and dignified, thereby increasing the respect for those who go to the temple and worship the Buddha. 2) Offering Dharma Jewels: Thanks to the teachings of the Buddha, Buddhists know what is suffering, how to practice and learn to be blessed, to be liberated; In return for that grace, Buddhists must bring the Buddha's teachings to others so that they can have faith and study. Therefore, Buddhists must publish scriptures, sermon tapes (cassette or video). 3) Making offerings to the Sangha: In the past, the Holy Sangha was only concerned with studying and studying scriptures in the temple, Therefore, Buddhists must make offerings to the monks, including: clothes, food, beds and bedding, medicine. Those four things are called the Four Offerings. Today, science has advanced, Buddhists can offer monks and nuns the means to serve the practice of religion more easily, don't offer what makes the monks and nuns corrupted. Buddhists can invite three or more monks, nuns or more, the more precious it is, the more precious they are, the more precious they are, the more precious they are to visit their homes to chant sutras or preach the Dharma and then have a vegetarian feast called Trai Sang, or come and worship Trai Sang at pagodas also called Qua Duong. , especially on the full moon day of the seventh month to pray for their parents and grandparents who still have money to live longer, have passed away and be reborn in the Land of Ultimate Bliss. The ritual is as follows: After inviting the monks and nuns to sit down to receive a meal, the host prepares an opening ceremony, with incense, lamps, flowers, and fruits placed at the top of the table. All those who worshiped Trai Sang gathered together, everyone bowed three times, then knelt down, presiding over the white great to be as follows: Namo Buddha Shakyamuni Buddha Namo Dai Hieu Muc Kien Lien Bodhisattva (If entering) Full moon day of July), the author proves. Dear Most Venerable Monks, Venerable Monks, Venerable Monks, Nuns. Today we have the predestined to pay homage (bowing three prostrations) to say: We obey the Buddha's teachings, today is the Fourth Day of the Sangha, the day of success and completion, we have made gifts. respectfully offer to the Three Jewels, may the Most Venerable Monks, Venerables, Venerable Monks, and Nuns accept it, please dedicate this merit to our parents (or to our parents' illness to eliminate and increase their lifespan) and our grandparents of seven generations were reborn in the Pure Land. Namo Dai Hieu Muc Kien Lien Bodhisattva ma ha slap! Then either the Venerable Master or the Venerable One will give teachings, praise virtue. The chairperson will continue: On the Venerable Monks, Venerables, Venerable Monks, and Nuns have promised to be able, loaded up, we have to pay homage. (bow 3 prostrations) Then the monks performed the Passover ceremony, while the monks received their food, the presiding officer asked the assistant to bring the ceremony to each of them, join hands with the monks and nuns, and then offer envelopes of money or supplies. After the monks have finished their meal, the celebrant must return to his old position, kneel down and continue to write: Namo Buddha Shakyamuni Buddha! The ceremony has been completed, we sincerely pay homage to this meritorious grace, vowing to be diligent every day on the path of cultivation and study. Namo often rejoice bodhisattva ma ha slap! IV. PURITY OF OFFERING: When Buddhists make offerings to the Three Jewels, not only must their mind be pure, but the offerings must also be pure. 1) Regarding purity of mind: When making offerings to the Three Jewels, don't calculate, If you have a lot of offerings, a few that are a little, your heart is always happy and sincere. Once you've made an offering, don't worry if you've donated too little or too much. Sincerity is most important. 2) About pure offerings: Fresh and pure offerings are precious, but the money you spend on shopping must be done by yourself with a righteous profession to have many blessings. For example, a person with very little hands and feet working as a hired hand has a little money, but using that money to buy a piece of incense or a bouquet of flowers to bring to the temple to worship Buddha, his merit is greater than a person who brings many offerings to Tam. Bao, this offering is due to money obtained from unrighteous deeds. V. CONCLUSION: A Buddhist must develop a mind, when given the opportunity to make an offering to the Three Jewels, the donation is always blessed with blessings, it is also a method to practice for oneself to let go of wealth and possessions. Only then will you be able to escape the cycle of birth and death. Buddhists must be blessed, Hue must practice, Phuoc must make offerings and give alms, and Hue must practice to keep their mind pure, so that wisdom will arise.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.7/1/2022.VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.
