Die Vorstellung von Sein Und Nichtsein Überschreiten
This is the final Dharma talk offered by Thay in the retreat ‘Are you Sure’ on the 16th of June, 2013, at the European Institute of Applied Buddhism in Waldbröl, Germany. The talk is given in English with consecutive translation into German.
We start with the three kinds of energies – mindfulness, concentration, insight – and they can be produced anytime while doing any activity. We can see things more deeply and remove wrong perceptions. Mindfulness is always mindfulness of something. Concentration is the same.
Four Foundations of Mindfulness - the four domains or objects of mindfulness. The first domain is body. The second domain is feelings. The mind is the third object. The final domain is objects of mind - in Buddhist psychology there are 51 mental formations. What is object of mind? The Five Skandhas (also known as the five aggregates). We discuss store consciousness and mind consciousness.
Science and Buddhism. Conventional truth and ultimate truth. Transmitter and receiver. What is emptiness? Birth and death. Being and non-being. These are just notions and can lead to wrong views.
Right View, part of the noble eightfold path, is the insight that is free from all wrong views. Right Thinking is the kind of thinking that is also free of notions of birth and death, being and non-being.
