vs 13 The right view of life

The truth of suffering is all the suffering of life, and after talking about the truth of suffering, let's talk about the truth of collection. The Truth is used to reveal the root cause of life's suffering. Buddhism believes that human greed or "love" is the root cause of all suffering, and sometimes "greed", "hatred", and "ignorance" are regarded as the root of all evil. Because of the greed of **, and ignorance of the truth of life, ignorance, the pursuit of financial interests and reputation of the thoughts and actions, can not achieve the goal of the generation of angry feelings, conflicts and fights with others, so that troubles arise. On some occasions, Buddhism emphasizes that ignorance is the most fundamental cause of all kinds of afflictions, and it puts "naivety" in the first place.

Extinguishing the true truth, that is, the elimination of greed**, will cut off the cause of suffering, so that oneself will never be reincarnated in the sea of life and death, which is the highest spiritual state pursued by the Buddha. When all afflictions are completely stopped, the practice reaches perfection, and this is the realization of the true perfection, which is called nirvana.

The true path is to summarize the methods and ways to achieve the elimination of suffering and the attainment of nirvana. The Noble Path of Truth Extinguishment is also known as the Noble Eightfold Path, which includes: Proper Opinion, Proper Thought, Proper Language, Proper Action, Proper Life, Proper Effort, Proper Thought, and Proper Meditation. The most important of these is the legitimate opinion, which expresses the correct position and worldview and values; However, legitimate views specifically refer to the Buddhist stance, worldview, and values guided by the teachings of the Four Noble Truths.

"Suffering" is the reality of life, and how to get happiness from suffering and seek ultimate liberation is the purpose of our study of Buddhism. At the beginning of the Buddha's enlightenment, in order to free sentient beings from their troubles and sufferings, he specifically explained the practice method of entering the realm of saints, which is called the Eightfold Path. Following this Noble Eightfold Path enables sentient beings to bring together the troubles of life, clear their minds, and thus break with them forever and attain the state of sages. The Noble Eightfold Path is the way to get rid of troubles and sufferings, and it is the correct way for Buddhist disciples to practice, and by following this Noble Eightfold Path can accomplish the purpose of learning Buddhism. If we are interested in Buddhism, the Noble Eightfold Path is a must-know.

Generally speaking, the Noble Eightfold Path is: right view, right thinking, right speech, right karma, right life, right mind, right mind, and right concentration. Correct view means correct views and correct concepts. A concept can often change a person's life, and the study and practice of Buddhism is to correct the bad habits of the past in order to have a better future. Correct concepts are crucial to a person's life. According to the Buddhist scriptures, correct view is the wisdom of truthfully understanding the cause and effect of the world, and obtaining the correct view of all phenomena in the universe through the Four Noble Truths. Broadly speaking, all teachings recognized by Buddhism are correct views.

Those who study Buddhism should have the following correct views:

(1) Seeing karma and karma. All the laws in the world are produced by causes, and the combination of causes and conditions gives rise to all phenomena, and phenomena are "karma". Karma comes from the combination of cause and fate, there is cause and fate, there must be effect, just as the seed is sown (cause), as long as the conditions are sufficient (fate), it will inevitably blossom and bear fruit. The whole life of each of us is accomplished by the harmony of various causes and conditions. Therefore, if you plant a good cause, you will naturally have good results; On the contrary, if we plant evil causes and bad karma, there will inevitably be evil retribution. Only when we can see the cause and effect can we understand the cause and effect, and we can move from delusion to enlightenment.

(2) Seeing good and evil karma correctly. Karma refers to physical and mental activities such as behavior, action, and will. Our daily volitional actions converge into a great force that determines the happiness and misfortune of our lives. Karma comes from one's own actions, words, thoughts, karma has good and evil, the Buddha said: "Good is rewarded with good, evil is rewarded with evil, it is not that there is no retribution, the time has not yet come." "The average person often sees good people suffering and bad people enjoying themselves, and thus has doubts about the cause and effect of good and evil. In fact, the cause and effect of good and evil cannot only be seen in front of us, it is not that we do not report it, and the time has not yet come. Only when we have a correct view of good and evil can we be cautious in our words and deeds and avoid evil retribution.

(3) Seeing impermanence and suffering emptiness. The Dharma is produced by the harmony of causes and conditions, and there is no autonomy, there is no independent action, and it arises, dies and mutates as the fate gathers and the fate disperses, so it is said that all the Dharma is impermanent, that is, the Dharma has no definite law. Because of impermanence, the good may become bad, and the bad may become good, and in the constant changes of birth and death, we feel that life is full of all kinds of suffering, so it is said that suffering is impermanent. Having a correct understanding of the impermanence of suffering and emptiness can enable us not to indulge in pleasure in good times and not to be pessimistic and negative in bad times. Because everything is changing, and the impermanence of suffering gives us hope, inspires us to move forward, and leads us to the otherworldly.

(4) Seeing the eternity of the Buddha's path. We often say that life is impermanent, and although the reality of life is the emptiness of impermanence, there is a world of nirvana in which there is always happiness and self-purity. At the beginning, the Buddha enlightened under the Bodhi tree and achieved incomparably complete wisdom and enlightenment, and this complete realization is nirvana, that is, the elimination of the opposition between man and self, transcending the obstacles of time and space, and knowing the eternal and infinite realm of life, which is a true self. When we study Buddhism and practice, we hope to attain such a beautiful and complete state of nirvana.

Human life is only a few decades in time, and the white clouds and dogs are all dreams; In terms of space, we are only seven feet of flesh, a thousand buildings, and no more than eight feet of sleep at night; In the face of such a finite life, if we can understand the meaning of Nirvana, break through the barriers of time and space, and fill life in all spaces and all times, we can transcend the fear of death and impermanence, and live endlessly in the infinite vastness of time and space. Therefore, seeing that the Buddha's path is eternal, there will be no judgments without cause and effect, and we will eventually reach the state of nirvana.

After saying the right view, it is the right thought. Correct thinking, also known as right will, right enlightenment, right thinking, and right separation, is the right will, determination, consideration, and discrimination, that is, not being greedy or stupid, being free from evil and greed, and being able to think correctly about truth and wisdom. The three poisons of greed, hatred, and ignorance often bind us and prevent us from moving towards the path of seeking the Tao. The three poisons of greed, hatred, and ignorance are always entrenched in our hearts and pollute our pure nature. If we want to stay away from these three poisons, we must have the strength of tenacity, keep the Dharma in mind for a long time, and have compassion. A pure mind enables our minds to always correspond to the Dharma, so that the three poisons can be removed and we can gradually enter the path of Buddhahood.

Greed, hatred, and ignorance are the three poisons of Buddhism. Greed: Thirst for all good times. Anger: Anger caused by adversity. Ignorance: ignorance, ignorance, reversal and recklessness, and all kinds of evil deeds. Wisdom is a cure for greed and hatred. Precepts: It is a moral and standardized standard of living that harmless to others, and to deal with excessive greed. Concentration: It is the cultivation of inner concentration and patience, which can cure the resentment caused by excessive irritability and impatience. Hui: It is the truthful understanding of life and the reality of the universe, no matter what or anything, not obsessed, not blindly obedient, everything comes from the heart, the true intention, and the nature, free from the shackles of appearances, so as to cure ignorance.
