Building skyscraping, rate of traffic flow among the modern city of
interest, monk hold the alms bowl in hand, walk slowly
along the street, see this scene, perhaps common people will grow a
kind of strange feeling at once, the big hair sighs with deep
feeling for tradition and modern difference! But most Thailanders
do not have this kind of feeling, Thai Buddhism has surmounted era,
still guiding the modern life of local people.
During staying in Thailand, I have especially looked out for the
local personage's work in this respect of Buddhism circle, have
found per layer of personage's affirmation and acceptance of Buddha
dharma in modern Thailand too.
Among safe the east one study of scholar, I browse one card than
hard thesis of Dr. conveniently, Wen Zhong says: "Buddhism is
certainly an old religion, but it is in the modern life and
contemporary value of respect, but it is definite to get more and
more. " Another scholar thinks too: "Buddha's teaching
method, very identical modern idea, it has achievement of
perspecting nature most since the dawn of human civilization. This
kind of teaching method needs applying in actual life, it wants us
to perspect life, but not only watch that lives. "
In Thailand, people not merely affirm Buddha dharma in idea, the
ones that are rich in positive meaninger are, they incorporate
Buddha dharma in the modern society, apply to life. Thailanders, to
acceptance and application of Buddha dharma, the most obvious one
is no more than they generally accept and sit in meditation
training. The personages of various circles of society have all
regarded sitting in meditation as essential cultural life, have
regarded as one's own ability of improving, spirit to benefit
society train, elder outstanding merits and virtues teach,
popularize, sit in meditation as answer, guide masses too, carry
forward the convenience of Buddha dharma extensively. Thai public
affair organ, school, enterprise,etc. of government, each
department of personnels participate in deep meditation hold
training collectively often, the holding of this kind of
atmosphere, I'm afraid that difficult to compare in other all parts
of the world. During the process of joining and visiting the
temple, I have seen many times the letter accepts Bhiksu to guide
allly, carry on the deep meditation and repair the touching scene
trained. It is said body temple law body stupa, law of Thai, turn
on light, have 30,000 more than people gather temple once, sit in
meditation for three days collectively, can repair the law in such
grand deep meditation, I think I can be regarded as the first in
the world too.
Buddhism sits in the deep meditation that Thailand carries forward,
belong to the order deep meditation of the teaching method of
Theravada, is made and entered the end view borned and repaired the
law in a proper order eight times by four deep meditations in this
world. Nowadays paying attention to the times of the result
instantly, this kind of Buddhist who can hasten into and become
effective instantly repairs the initial approach to become a
Buddhist believer, the ones that undoubtedly met and guided
everybody are one big and convenient.
It is a famous scientist of Thailand, and a member of congress too
to beg and reach doctors refinedly, he says: "I am a politician,
and a scientist too, not only like this, I am entrepreneur and
educationist too, can be competent at all these ability and sedate
in order to find, over the past 34 years, I cultivation sit quietly
constantly in morning and evening of every day. Sitting in
meditation can promote memory, improve the intensity with absorbed
mental and physical efforts, so, sitting in meditation can help us
to study, make everything in our life get the
interests. While studying for the doctorate in
London, the teacher has said on my Zen Buddhism: ' Buddha dharma is
the responsibility, responsibility is the Buddha dharma. You are a
student now, your Buddha dharma is to read the good book, no matter
what you do in daily life, your Buddha dharma is to try one's best
to finish responsibility. ' I in accordance with practise Buddhism
or Taoism by research,climb pieces of pieces of peak
constantly. "
Seeing the achievement in this respect of Thai Buddhism circle, I
have increased a kind of sense of urgency. They still pay attention
to repairing family in fact in this way, how could we kill time
casually and longly? Hide two places of Chinese, it has always been
Mahayana Buddha dharma enlightening by education area that has paid
attention to entering the WTO, but we, in the face of the modern
society, with what does kind of effective convenience meet and
guide the masses extensively?
Chinese has numerous persons who study Buddha at home too, but in
practising Buddhism or Taoism to incorporate life, guiding life,
compared with Thailander, I think that still there is very great
disparity. Some people often conflict with family, office while
repairing and studying Buddha dharma, make the relation very tense;
After some people will repair the thing of studying Buddha dharma
and push to the old age and retire; Some people will study Buddha
and totally place hope on the environment. All these are not
appropriate methods. Go out of house special good luck of
cultivation, receive personal, should hold attentively, on one hand
it shoulder community responsibility, should bunch is built with
one's own corresponding initial approach to become a Buddhist
believer when being daily on the other hand, personal ones that
got, shouldered the responsibility for one's own future for
oneself. Buddha dharma and generation law, originally two law,
Buddha dharma propose for people of era any what a intelligence
principle of life it is, if can contract enter Buddha dharma, that
have with society incompatible result definitely. Master can say
six grandfathers are intelligent: "Buddha dharma in in this world,
from feel in this world, pass away bodhi of looking for, just as
asking rabbit's corner. " Its dense purpose has justice that
Buddhism corresponds with society of every eras too. If the persons
who study Buddha at home can study the Buddha dharma of practising
Buddhism or Taoism all one's life like begging and reaching doctors
refinedly like that, how significant and happy that will be!
