Dwelling in peace.

The nature of all dharmas is neither coming nor going. There is no point in space from which they come, and there is no point in space to which they go. They reveal themselves only when conditions are sufficient. When conditions are insufficient, they are latent.

In our life, we should see the nature of all dharmas. If I have full conditions, if conditions are sufficient, I  will go back and living in Da Nang. Otherwise if conditions are in susfficient  I still live Ben tre Province. I must see it. So I do not regret and sad about it all day.

In Buddhism, a pure land is a fresh, beautiful place where people are happy and peaceful. Creating a pure land is called “setting up a serene and beautiful Buddha field.” We must see a land where you are living is a pure land. A pure land is a fresh, beautiful place where people are happy and peaceful. In Amitabha Sutra ( Pure land Sutra ), Amitabha Buddha has a Pure Land in the Western Paradise. Creating a pure land is called “setting up a serene and beautiful Buddha field.”

In our life, when we practice and study the teaching of the Buddha, after a period of practice, if you have some attainment and peace, you can see the land you are living is a pure land. But this seeings is always in the spirit of formlessness. Do not be bound by land you establish. So once day, when conditions are sufficient I will go back Da Nang, my home land, I  will see, Ben Tre and Da Nang both pure lands, too.  I see it in the spirit of formlessness.
