According to legend, when out to La Thanh, he saw yellow dragon flying up to heaven, I renamed the Dai La to Thang Long in. The name of Thang Long has since then, started a new era of national prosperity University Vietnam.
But not only Matching moved the capital to view the millennium, and the Ly Ly Thai To, the first monarch to maintain the long-term administration to more than two hundred years (as opposed to the old monarch had previously only existed in over several decades), preservation and extension of the City of Temple worship their king Ly Dynasty, in addition to large contributions, laid the foundation for the development of the culture of Vietnam, a special cultural identity in South Asia and Southeast Asia.
1000 years have passed, the spirit, culture as it does not turn off the lights.
Topic this week get "the look" from Hanoi in 2010 and from the personal perspective of the writer Nguyen Xuan Khanh, the artist - a researcher and art critic Nguyen Quan and Dr - the young Pho Duc Tung, with the hope not only to understand the immense value was planted in the Thang Long culture, but also see the cultural challenges to Hanoi after a thousand years and thousand years later ...
In the video I saw years ago, recording a talk by the Vietnamese Zen master famous. Zen masters as he has many times for teaching foreigners, but remember the meeting in Germany, explaining to people of Vietnam, mostly ordinary working people, to do this trade or rent ...
End of lecture, a disciple to follow Western Union, questions that teachers remain as always, so that the atmosphere in here is different, but sales did not think others know what it is.
The angel said: Maybe for me, talking to the Vietnamese felt like coming home. As for the audience, perhaps because the people of Vietnam is a Buddhist nation.
Today, there are many who are not Buddhists, but parents, grandparents which is Buddhist. The seed of his father's Buddhism is transmitted to them. So, to hear me say, they see no stranger. This issue we have traced the Vietnamese people for nation building.
1. Buddhism in Vietnam has 2,000 years (from southern India, from northern China) mainly because of two lines of Ti ni meditation saved expenses and language through which the Infinite is home tank (Thuan Thanh) and Kien Pagoda Profile (Phu Dong).
Two lines of this meditation, the meditation different from the Chinese, the concept of field theory for flexible land Great Vietnamese land is sacred to all intelligent life princess. Then "Buddha everywhere", "Tay Thien this realm, this realm Tay Thien" means the sect are committed to nation building Vietnam into a Western Heavenly realms, the land of Buddha.
Before the throne Ly Cong Uan, the movement for independence is very exciting. The short-lived dynasty was born. The national hero appears. Ly Nam De, Ngo Quyen, Dinh Bo Linh, Le Dai Hanh. These intellectuals also participated, especially the Buddhist intellectuals.
As engineers Khuong Dinh Tien Hoang Vietnamese king pro, pro Fa King Le Dai Hanh Thuan, Master Van Hanh Ly Cong Uan. Do not see the Confucian intellectuals. Perhaps from the Si Photography, Confucianism teaches the vessel for the Vietnamese but only at the elementary level, just enough to mail, ie work for foreign minions.
And the great intellectuals, they must be monks! Profound Buddhist philosophy, there must be a profound learning capability, even to excel both Confucius, Lao understand the Buddha. Ha noi that the sect is very patriotic.
Buddhists understand that just as the country is independent, then Buddhism is emerging. Since then I understand why the Ly Tran, Buddhism is the state religion and why people say are ethnic Vietnamese Buddhism.
Zen Master Van Hanh is a wise man of hanoi vietnam travel, devoted to the director and devoted life, in the middle of religious life that lead, not uptight, not attached to anything, as long as the country is making peace, strength prevalence.
He pro three dynasties Dinh, Le, Ly. He participated in the destruction Tong Le Hoan. He taught, trained Ly Cong Uan. He was taken to make the Ly Cong Uan for Le Dai Hanh. He participated in the introduction of Ly Cong Uan throne. He was the mastermind for Ly Thai To moved the capital to Thang Long.
We can say that because Master Van Hanh is thundering good sign, feng shui. No operation, no throne of Ly Cong Uan, so there is no Ly dynasty, no Thang Long.
Read the poem was about the people who passed away, shaking our faith admire: Body as ball lightning is then not / Plants fresh spring collection flinch / Even the rise and fall, do not be afraid / rise and fall, the grass dew the east. The first two sentences about personal status, the following two statements about society.
That is the philosophy of human action, devoted to life, mastering the law of life and death rise and fall, but omen and devoted life. I like the poems of Master Van Hanh, a Zen monk character in my new book called fearless.
2. Earlier this year's Day we went to the temple ceremony. Delegation is the sparse, your childhood he participated in 46 capital protection, the director retired, he retired colonel.
Youth, can not know what Buddhism is, we did not have faith. But now, my friends, face all cheerful and respectful. Moreover, going to pagodas on New Year's day of, if not a Buddhist lens can not go hanoi vietnam weather.
We went to the temple Xiaoshan, Bac Ninh, where the abbot of Master Van Hanh and venue of Ly Cong Uan ...
Unlike the old days Xiaoshan wilderness, that I had some time to come. No brown dress shirt, no coat tangle tangle of three seven, not red dirt road, not the feelings and romantic atmosphere of Xiaoshan coated Hung who imagine that expression. Now the road to the temple is spacious, with plants such as sidewalks and streets. Temple Xiaoshan modernizing.
We thought the callers of the temple. Any doubt, previously had a car to the teachers and students to offer incense.
The teacher dressed, modern reverence respectfully before the altar of Buddha. The students she clasped the hands of incense dim. I suddenly remember your meditation teachings in Germany after the other: Each Vietnam are Buddhist elements in the ...
There are two characters of the Ly dynasty that I have more thoughts: King Ly Thanh Tong and Ms Y Lan. Among prisoners of Physics is a Zen master called Street Talk. He is the Chinese to missionaries that Champa was arrested.
Through conversation, Ly Tong admire and ethics of international diabetes went room to master and disciple would do! Sex Talk Street establishment, the family is unexploited country.
Ly Tong is also open to official Confucianism appeared in Vietnam. In the past, Buddhism has a great education and training of talents for the country.
Dinh Tien Hoang, Le Hoang, Ly Cong Uan, Ly Tong, Ly Thuong Kiet, Vietnamese Zen master Khuong, France Thuan, professor Van Hanh and many other countries that have become famous thanks to the temple of the country.
Besides the temple he has trained many other resources to work at all levels of government. At that time outside the temple also functions as a religious school. Here we learn words, learn the Dhamma. The temple which openly tolerant to the Zen master also taught both Confucianism and Lao sites.
But gradually it was found difficult to separate Buddhist country controlled by Buddhist interested in politics but not political research, care to free him rather than the rule.
But Confucianism is different. Tu family, own household, national treatment, normal galaxy major concern of Confucianism, has a system to rule and expand territory. Zen master policy mellitus fusion between Buddhism and Confucianism.
Meanwhile, Li is the peak period and to develop to the south ... The Li wanted a strong centralized government. Since history was required, Ly Tong was the first to build the Temple of Literature. Y Lan and her regent has replaced the open contest for the first Confucianism fussy talent.
Y Lan is an extraordinary woman, from an ordinary farmer to become a Buddhist wise woman, and then two times instead of king of political administration. Maybe by manually running the country so she was aware of the importance of Confucianism. She built 100 temples, but to open the Confucian examinations.
I think, in Vietnamese culture, Buddhism is the sound, but Confucianism is a positive.
Buddhism is a flexible software, subtle, endurance, gentleness of Vietnamese people. It is the potential energy. Flexibility to endure there, but when they broke up terribly well. But Confucianism is a dynamic reality, resolutely. It is the power split river escarpments.
Two of the missing part, it is not. A man, a country needs both. To thank the Ly dynasty has created for our people to develop qualities that today.
A further feature of Buddhism in Vietnam is the property type. Clearly reveals the nature of the Ly dynasty. Tran Nhan Tong Truc Lam First the bare Cu written communications director coast and drop option. Be charming custom, at the very mundane but happy with this direction. Thought that was available from the Ly Buddhism! Vietnam is a Master student engineers Khuong Van Phong. Van Phong is the student teacher Compassion Society. The Master Teacher teaches Feng: Right in the life and death, that took the life and death is not new (ie, cancer cancer Buddhists have participated in all activities of life, life is considered to complete the proof for the completion of the director).
Ly Thai Tong, who built the One Pillar Pagoda has a king has to lay teacher. Following the example of Taizong, Li Tong, Ly Anh Tong will also have a king just as the teacher.
Later Le dynasty, the Nguyen dynasty to the throne. Confucianism became unique in court. Buddhism does not attend the court again, it retreated to the village. But Buddhism is always an element in the soul of Vietnamese, the Vietnamese culture.
In Vietnamese culture, Buddhism is the sound, but Confucianism is a positive. Buddhism is a flexible software, subtle, endurance, gentleness of Vietnamese people. It is the potential energy. Flexibility to endure there, but when they broke up terribly well.
But Confucianism is a dynamic reality, resolutely. It is the power split river escarpments. Two of the missing part, it is not. A man, a country needs both. Thanks to the Ly dynasty has created for our people to develop qualities that today.
The village does have family and temple. Represents the Confucian family, where the activities of man. Buddhist Temple, where daily life of women, also the cultural activities of youth and children in the festival.
The woman upon meeting her husband and children are often on the shoulder. Mother always going to pagodas and also is responsible for teaching children. Almost any kid Vietnam was also the mother to the temple ceremony.
Going to pagodas, but not understand the teachings of Buddhism deeply, but at least we know the moral, know that doing good is good, that should help those suffering disadvantage and to stay away from this violent, evil.
Perhaps the village temple was the continuation lamp light compassionate Buddhist. It glows in the Ly and lasts to this day
