650 Read The Power of Sadhu
Sadhu means "good". It comes from the root word Sat (or Sat) in the meaning of success when we make any merit. And if someone sees our good deeds, then he says "Amen" with faith and joy to see me make merit. That person also gained incredible merit. Like burning a candle and having someone come and ask for a candle extension. This is merit in the form of giving thanks for seeing others do good deeds.
Merit is very miraculous in making merit. We already know that Make merit by yourself, you will get merit. Invite others to make merit and get merit. But some people, even if they don't give up their wealth, become the owner of alms. Not a hand giver Also, he was not included in giving alms to him. But later learned that other people gave it to me to eat Knowing that, I felt happy and devout with him. That person will also miraculously receive the result of merit.
Making merit saying "Sadhu, Sadhu, Sadhu" is just one example of making merit and alms of others. If it is thanks to the creation of the virtues of the Bodhisattva or the Noble Sangha or sacred things as well, and will produce enormous merit in the Buddha Jataka and the history of the Buddha. We always see that the person who really makes merit and creates prestige is the Lord Buddha, acting only in giving thanks with those who practice the highest prestige, will also receive great merit as well
What is the ratio of merit resulting from giving merit? This story is more suspicious than saying that gratitude will receive a lot of merit. See other people doing well and then we ask to share merit like that? Or if giving thanks is the act of stealing merit from others or not? The virtue that will be gained from making merit is comparable to the profit from using the mind to make merit. You don't have to invest yourself. if it was done deliberately With a mind full of joy in the good deeds that others do, they may gain up to 90 percent of merit.
The person who owns the merit or the person who makes merit will receive 100 percent of the merit already. As for those who intend to make merit, they can go 90 percent each time. If there are 10 people who come to make merit, we will get about 900 merit, more than each owner of merit. It's a technique to fill up your prestige very quickly.
In the scriptures of the Abhidhanapatipika classified the use of the word Sadhu in 6 implications, namely: Sunthra means beautiful Thanhkhagamma is a reiteration to make the action more stable Ayajna is a plea or request. At the beginning will continue to say something else. Sampathichana is accepting or acknowledging the words of others. Satchana means a good person. Sampathasa is a word of congratulation or satisfaction.
Before explaining the Dharma, explain the word Sadhu to us a little bit. We only hear Sadhu but don't know what it means. Sadhu in Thai has at least 5 meanings.
1. Sadhu means congratulations, congratulations, OK, agree. For example, when we agree with someone who agrees, ok, we say Sadhu, agree. Suppose we vote and see the vote, we say Sadhu. No need to applaud because applause belongs to. The foreigner of Thailand is Sadhu, agreeing appropriately. Or the teacher knows that the disciple bows beautifully. The teacher tells him to say goodnight and congratulate him.
2. Sadhu means sake for success for example, hearing the words mattanyutta sada Sadhu, moderation is always successful.
3. Amen means May you be blessed with blessings that you have given, such as Anna Burden in the Buddha's time, being poor and making merit with the Buddha, made a wish that the word poverty must not exist and that one must know the Dhamma Blessed by the Buddha, Ichitam Patthitam Tumahang Khippameva Samicchatu Sappei Purentu Sangkappachanto Pannaraso Yatha Mani. Chotiraso yatha means that the result you wished for and intended to come to fruition immediately. May all intentions be full like the full moon like a luminous jewel should be glad.
4. Sadhu means asking for a chance. This is an expression of a monk. For example, assuming that he was inviting precepts, he would say, Sadhu Sadhu Mayang Phante, have you ever heard that? As if a teacher would do anything, he asked for a chance. Thera first like will open the window Give me a chance, Master, I will open the window. Do something to say it's a bit of an adult. Don't use it to act suddenly. Lack of respect. Asking for an opportunity like this is called Sadhu in the Pali language. Thai language: ask for a chance
5. Amen means Showing welcome, congratulating, cheering, and paying homage, for example, when the Supreme Patriarch or anyone traveling abroad in foreign countries such as Nepal, they are popular when coming to welcome them, they will sing amen along the way.
