School of Dharmaguptaka (Dam-immortal).

Image
Dharmaguptaka (also known as Dharmaguptika, Paali is Dharmaguttika) is one of the 18 schools of Buddhism. It is believed that it is so called by the founder of this school called Dharmagupta.
Dam Vi Trườnge school is generally considered to be the mastermind of Mahii'saaka. Bhavya, when listing this school in the Sthavira sect of the 10th sermon, also mentions another tradition traditionally attributed to Darmagupta as one of the Vibhajjavaadins.
The mention of the date of origin of this school is unclear. Commentary  Kathaavathu (these differences ) also did not mention this school. There is evidence in the  Abhidharmaka ± a (  IV, v, 39) that the Darmagupta people refuse to accept the Sarvaastivaada suttas (Praatimok.sa) Department) is a reliable source. Current scholars agree that Darmagupta appeared around the second century BC. Similarly, there are no records of inscriptions as well as text to identify any particular site of this school in India. Although Huyen Trang and Nghia Tinh seem to have found traces of the Darmagupta School in the Uddiyaana area [probably Udyaana, Of Parkistan today] in the seventh century, but this evidence is not sufficient to conclude Uddiyaa is the starting point of this school. Przyluski claims Darmagupta has a center in the North West. Warder thinks that it originated in Aparanta [now in the northern part of Gujarat - India] (Warder, AK, Indian Buddhism , India, 1970, p. 289).
The rare evidence of this school of luck can be supplemented by other gleaned information from the classics of the Dam Do Monastery, a significant source of this school of literature found nowadays. Also in Chinese language. The first canon of the Darmagupta school seems to consist of three parts: the Vinaya , the Suutra , and the Abhidharma . This Code has four parts, so it is called the   Four Laws  or  the Four Laws  ( Caturvarga-Vinaya .). The four parts are: Bhik.su-Praatimok.sa , Bhik.sunii-Praatimok.sa , Khandhaka and Ekottara . Beijing has 5 sets: Field A-Ham ( Diighaagama ), the A-Ham ( Madhyamaagama ) Increase First A-Ham ( Ekottaraagama ), Tap A-Ham  (Sa.myuktaagama)  and Samyutta ( K, sudrakaagama ). The thesis consists of 4 works:  Sapra'snaka ,  Apra ± naka ,  Sa.mgraha Sam Ü yukta  and  Prasthaana . Paramaartha and K'uei-chi suggest that the existing scriptures consist of five main organs, in addition to the three mentioned above, there are also two other organs: one dealing with the Buddha's predecessors And another part includes mantras ( dhaara.niis ) or ( mantras) . However,
We can grasp all the ideas and doctrines that are supposedly of the Darmagupta school from the literature, especially those of Vasumitra, Bhavya and Viniitadeva. Some of the main teachings of this school are as follows:
1. The Buddha is not classified in the Sangha (Sa "ngha). Therefore, offering the Buddha more merit than the merit of offering the Sangha.
2. Although the liberation of the Buddha and His disciples are the same, the way of attaining is different.
3. Foreigners can not attain the five ( abhij ~ naa ).
4. An Arahant is completely purified ( anaa'srava ).
5. Even in the realm of devas ( brahma-cariya ) can also be practiced .
6. Blessed is obtained by virtue of the tower ( stuupas ).
The attainment of truth ( abhisamaya ) occurs not slowly but only in moments.
Through meditative meditation (aanimitta-saamadhi), the meditator may dwell in virtue.
9. It is Vasumitra, Bhavya and Viniitadeva who disagree with these. Vasumitra, for example, does not accept that the Buddha is not a member of the Sangha. Furthermore, he maintains that Darmagupta's doctrine is very similar to the teachings of Mahaasa "nghika." This remark is very valuable because the Darmagupta school is generally considered to be in the direction of the Minister. Although this school originated from the Synod of Ministers, it was later influenced by many of Mahaas' ideas. Another proof for this is that in the sutras of this sect there is also mantras and, equally importantly, the sect that advocates the worship of the tower.
The Darmagupta school plays a huge role in spreading Buddhism. As Warder points out (in the same work, p. 289) they have worked harder than others to spread Buddhism to other countries. And in terms of this propaganda, they succeed most, in addition to the "worship" of the tower, but also invented some other means to popularize Buddhism to mystical lovers rather than philosophy. Dhaara.nii and Mantra can be used and help a lot in this propaganda. It seems that the Darmagupta schools carried the Buddhist message of trade routes from Aparanta to Iran and at the same time spread to Uddiyaana and later established in the Far West as Parthia (Parkistan), following the Silk Road. Eastward across Central Asia to China. In China, Darmagupta became one of the most influential and influential schools throughout the early days of Chinese Buddhism.END=NAM MO AMITABHA BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH GIAC TAM.THE MIND OF ENLIGHTENMENT.VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN AMITABHA PURELAND=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.26/4/2017.
