It's a method that brings us closer to understanding the nature of our mind and the path to liberation.</p><p><br /></p><p>The practice of Anapanasati begins with the simple act of observing the breath. As we sit in meditation, we focus our attention on the natural rhythm of inhalation and exhalation. The breath becomes our anchor, a point of concentration that allows us to develop mindfulness.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the initial stages, we become aware of the breath entering and leaving the body. We notice its qualities - whether it's long or short, deep or shallow, smooth or erratic. This attentiveness to the breath cultivates a heightened sense of awareness and presence in the moment.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anapanasati is not merely about breathing; it's about cultivating mindfulness in every aspect of our experience. As we progress in this practice, we start to observe the impermanent nature of the breath and, by extension, the impermanence of all phenomena. We learn to let go of attachments, understanding that everything is in a constant state of flux.</p><p><br /></p><p>The next phase involves calming the breath and the mind. As we breathe in and out, we allow ourselves to relax, to let go of the mental chatter and distractions. This tranquil state helps us develop a deep sense of inner peace and clarity.</p><p><br /></p><p>Through continued practice, Anapanasati leads us to deeper insights. We start to observe the interconnectedness of body and mind. We notice how our thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations are intertwined with the breath. This realization fosters a profound understanding of the mind-body relationship and how it influences our experiences.</p><p><br /></p><p>As mindfulness strengthens, we move towards the exploration of the mind itself. We observe the arising and passing away of thoughts, feelings, and mental states without getting entangled in them. This detachment allows us to break free from habitual patterns, reducing suffering caused by attachment and aversion.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ultimately, Anapanasati Bhavana leads us to the development of wisdom and insight. By observing the impermanent, unsatisfactory, and selfless nature of all phenomena, we gain a deeper understanding of reality as it is. This wisdom paves the way to liberation from suffering - the ultimate goal of the Buddha's teachings.</p><p><br /></p><p>In our daily lives, the practice of Anapanasati Bhavana is not confined to formal meditation sessions. We can apply mindfulness of breathing in every moment - while walking, working, or interacting with others. It becomes a way of living, a constant reminder to be present, aware, and compassionate in all circumstances.</p><p><br /></p><p>May the practice of Anapanasati Bhavana guide us towards inner peace, wisdom, and liberation from suffering. As we continue on this path, may we cultivate mindfulness and compassion not only for ourselves but for all beings.</p><p><br /></p><p>Remember, the breath is always available to us as an anchor in the present moment. Let's embrace it with gratitude and dedication on our journey towards awakening.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>Dhamma USAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07261106376338704506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5247423068240722739.post-80608096589021176072023-11-28T22:08:00.000-08:002023-11-28T22:08:46.778-08:00 Wealth according to Buddhism<p><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-size: x-large;"><b> Wealth according to Buddhism</b></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6eJ6g4-SX5Qhwi21Qpe7GTDWqN8Oc0-wqEwFWTlcYE2dyYSCim6jemXxryn_o3P2Adl1bFJuYDQrDcTeOiOOjZSLZeIasHuUtJ9et8ScabXrxZi_SnvxpEakjebh9gOrgmAE3ZE7bW6hmoH57MZpxrFiKbD-pHJUDgf8MY55m5onfp9Z6zOLF01Fc-Kc/s940/Help%20Dhamma%20USA%20continue%20the%20noble%20cause%20of%20helping%20children%20&%20poor%20families.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="788" data-original-width="940" height="268" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6eJ6g4-SX5Qhwi21Qpe7GTDWqN8Oc0-wqEwFWTlcYE2dyYSCim6jemXxryn_o3P2Adl1bFJuYDQrDcTeOiOOjZSLZeIasHuUtJ9et8ScabXrxZi_SnvxpEakjebh9gOrgmAE3ZE7bW6hmoH57MZpxrFiKbD-pHJUDgf8MY55m5onfp9Z6zOLF01Fc-Kc/s320/Help%20Dhamma%20USA%20continue%20the%20noble%20cause%20of%20helping%20children%20&%20poor%20families.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>In Buddhism, wealth is perceived through a different lens than in many other philosophies or cultures. Unlike conventional ideas of material abundance, wealth in Buddhism revolves around a different set of principles.</p><p><br /></p><p>Imagine wealth not just in terms of possessions or material affluence, but rather as an internal state of being. Buddhism teaches us that true wealth lies in contentment, simplicity, and the freedom from excessive desires. The Buddha himself spoke extensively about wealth, emphasizing the importance of inner richness over external accumulation.</p><p><br /></p><p>According to Buddhist teachings, real wealth is found in the treasure of a peaceful mind. It's about cultivating inner qualities like compassion, wisdom, and generosity. The richness of one's heart, the depth of understanding, and the ability to empathize with others constitute genuine wealth in Buddhism.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Buddha highlighted that the pursuit of material wealth, while necessary to meet basic needs, should not be the sole focus of our lives. Instead, he encouraged a balanced approach—a middle way—wherein we fulfill our responsibilities and pursue our goals without becoming enslaved by the pursuit of wealth.</p><p><br /></p><p>Generosity is another cornerstone of wealth according to Buddhism. Giving, without attachment or expectation, is considered a path to true abundance. By sharing our resources, time, and kindness with others, we cultivate a sense of richness that transcends material possessions.</p><p><br /></p><p>In essence, Buddhism invites us to reconsider our definition of wealth. It urges us to seek contentment within ourselves, to cultivate qualities that bring genuine happiness and peace. True wealth in Buddhism is not measured by what we own, but by the depth of our inner fulfillment and our ability to positively impact the lives of others.</p>Dhamma USAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07261106376338704506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5247423068240722739.post-14953088563389518872023-11-19T12:39:00.000-08:002023-11-19T12:39:29.796-08:00 Brahmavihāra Practice: 4 Sublime States <p><span style="font-size: x-large;"> Brahmavihāra Practice: 4 Sublime States </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu387s8gP7jTcvSWVXMCg92d4k6P9oSvZ4At51ERMIVH4fmmSUNaS7W3R0gQuv0pWaD3uxYg8vpmkJepZxWIgLhC2dgm4365TQ_KvyCJuxopLlXjTAe4-p_5QeoA_hdomLj_KFYHk0j_dS9CLBS96vju2NPGdTDOdPSNvN0QVB0g1M11_VHX-KaKBz23A/s1280/brahmavihara1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1280" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu387s8gP7jTcvSWVXMCg92d4k6P9oSvZ4At51ERMIVH4fmmSUNaS7W3R0gQuv0pWaD3uxYg8vpmkJepZxWIgLhC2dgm4365TQ_KvyCJuxopLlXjTAe4-p_5QeoA_hdomLj_KFYHk0j_dS9CLBS96vju2NPGdTDOdPSNvN0QVB0g1M11_VHX-KaKBz23A/s320/brahmavihara1.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><p></p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: var(--text-primary); font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px 0px 1.25em; white-space-collapse: preserve;">The Four Brahmaviharas, or Divine Abodes, are foundational teachings in Buddhism, encompassing loving-kindness (Metta), compassion (Karuna), empathetic joy (Mudita), and equanimity (Upekkha). These states of mind are considered sublime because they represent the ideal conduct toward all living beings, resolving social tensions and promoting harmony in communities. They dismantle barriers, revive generosity, and foster unity against egotism.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: var(--text-primary); font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Their divine nature is likened to Brahma, a deity devoid of hate, contrasting with other deities often depicted with anger or jealousy. Practicing these states aligns one with Brahma, potentially leading to rebirth in congenial realms. They are called "abodes" as they should become constant mental dwellings, ingrained in everyday life.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: var(--text-primary); font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">The Brahmaviharas are boundless, extending universally without discrimination. To achieve this boundless application, meditation—Brahma-vihara-bhavana—is essential. Meditative absorption (jhana) aids in developing these qualities deeply within and expanding their application limitlessly. Gradually, meditative practices dismantle barriers to their application, guiding practitioners from easier (e.g., directing loving-kindness towards respected individuals) to more challenging (e.g., extending it to enemies) scenarios.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: var(--text-primary); font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Spatial expansion involves starting with familiar environments and progressively extending these qualities to encompass broader spheres—from family to the entire world. Compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity follow similar practices, with variations in the selection of individuals.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: var(--text-primary); font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Attaining Brahmavihara-jhanas aims to prepare the mind for liberating insight into the impermanent, suffering, and insubstantial nature of phenomena. These states pave the way for a purified, tranquil mind capable of insight.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: var(--text-primary); font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Two methods—practical conduct and methodical meditation—complement each other. Meditation enhances the spontaneity of these qualities, while practical application diminishes resentment and tension, aiding meditation. Bridging the gap between daily life and meditative practice fosters steady progress.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: var(--text-primary); font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Repeated reflection on the qualities, benefits, and dangers of their opposites aids in their meditative development. The mind inclines towards what is consistently contemplated, emphasizing the importance of persistent reflection on these virtues.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: var(--text-primary); font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">The Brahmaviharas serve as guiding principles, offering a path to cultivate a harmonious and compassionate way of living, ultimately contributing to personal well-being and creating a more peaceful world.</p>Dhamma USAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07261106376338704506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5247423068240722739.post-8754472410245064832023-11-19T10:25:00.000-08:002023-11-19T10:25:45.295-08:004 Sublime States/Abodes (Brahmavihara)<p><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">4 Sublime States/Abodes (Brahmavihara)</span></b></p><p><b></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEja60hxiQgVTNJe-Cm0RlaEpxuBDOP9kIzurZaWtq6iBReOZoqCOOjVSzjl17bIFosSMg1YjKBhUIQkequ06_WUXTSWS_6vMsjvPt727dPnsyrKBjkfO5IzBG6icgMqVhVefcak5iZgItLefgmGN8F_IlI58SX8A8WqukfK3f1mHDLALUectOjzHs6Ha4U/s1280/brahmavihara.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1280" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEja60hxiQgVTNJe-Cm0RlaEpxuBDOP9kIzurZaWtq6iBReOZoqCOOjVSzjl17bIFosSMg1YjKBhUIQkequ06_WUXTSWS_6vMsjvPt727dPnsyrKBjkfO5IzBG6icgMqVhVefcak5iZgItLefgmGN8F_IlI58SX8A8WqukfK3f1mHDLALUectOjzHs6Ha4U/s320/brahmavihara.png" width="320" /></a></b></div><p></p><p>The Brahmaviharas, also known as the Four Divine Abodes or Sublime States, are a cornerstone of Buddhist teachings, emphasizing virtues and practices that cultivate a wholesome way of being in the world. These four qualities—loving-kindness (Metta), compassion (Karuna), empathetic joy (Mudita), and equanimity (Upekkha)—are considered sublime attitudes that bring about profound transformation within individuals and in their interactions with others.</p><p><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Mettā - Loving Kindness</b></span></p><p>Loving-kindness, or Metta, is the foundational practice among the Brahmaviharas. It involves the boundless wish for the happiness, well-being, and peace of oneself and all beings. Metta encourages the cultivation of a compassionate and open heart, fostering a sense of interconnectedness and goodwill towards oneself and others. By practicing Metta meditation, individuals aim to dissolve barriers of prejudice and hostility, nurturing a deep sense of empathy and care for all sentient beings.</p><p><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Karuṇā - Compassion</b></span></p><p>Compassion, or Karuna, is the empathetic response to the suffering of others. It involves the recognition of pain, distress, or anguish experienced by oneself or others, accompanied by the sincere desire to alleviate this suffering. Karuna arises from a profound understanding that suffering is an inherent part of the human condition and extends the wish to help alleviate that suffering in any way possible. It encourages acts of kindness, support, and understanding toward oneself and all beings, fostering a more compassionate world.</p><p><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Muditā - Empathetic/Sympathetic Joy</b></span></p><p>Empathetic joy, or Mudita, celebrates the happiness, success, and well-being of others. It is the ability to genuinely rejoice in the accomplishments, good fortune, and positive experiences of oneself and others without envy or resentment. Mudita arises from a selfless and generous mindset, allowing individuals to transcend feelings of jealousy or competition and instead share in the joy and happiness of those around them.</p><p><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Upekkhā - Equanimity</b></span></p><p>Equanimity, or Upekkha, is a balanced and even-minded state of mind in the face of life's ups and downs. It involves maintaining mental calmness, stability, and tranquility regardless of external circumstances. Upekkha does not imply indifference; rather, it embodies a deep understanding of the impermanent nature of existence. It allows individuals to respond to situations with clarity and wisdom, free from attachment and aversion, fostering a sense of inner peace and harmony.</p><p>The cultivation of the Brahmaviharas is not merely an intellectual exercise but a way of life that requires practice, mindfulness, and dedication. Through meditation, reflection, and conscious effort, individuals can gradually develop these sublime qualities, transforming their attitudes and behaviors toward themselves and others.</p><p>In summary, the Brahmaviharas—loving-kindness, compassion, empathetic joy, and equanimity—are guiding principles that encourage individuals to cultivate a more compassionate, empathetic, and harmonious way of living. By embodying these virtues, individuals can contribute positively to their own well-being and to the well-being of the world around them, fostering a more peaceful and compassionate society.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>Dhamma USAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07261106376338704506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5247423068240722739.post-172587436995716352023-11-04T09:21:00.004-07:002023-11-04T09:22:04.354-07:00Exploring MN 20: Vitakkasanthana Sutta - The Art of Thought Relaxation<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>MN 20: Vitakkasanthana Sutta: </b></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>The Relaxation of Thoughts</b></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbeK4mU00czeiFGKXtKItGmNc1jrpRv7zoNo20Uw5L9oPRS30BnxXWc34SXsIE28OYlhfO94p6JXD_GfWKDo2glzsBXuTKcXiGcJ8MeCjF6FnKHJzsReg2CvsYb_Kyi_vZwSCJWLniA2K9VZKlGG7mW8q-47dbhPhvSaYuNTYWu_S-dDRhjq3za7nrLtg/s2048/376766767_1821224455002947_7730778432255108638_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbeK4mU00czeiFGKXtKItGmNc1jrpRv7zoNo20Uw5L9oPRS30BnxXWc34SXsIE28OYlhfO94p6JXD_GfWKDo2glzsBXuTKcXiGcJ8MeCjF6FnKHJzsReg2CvsYb_Kyi_vZwSCJWLniA2K9VZKlGG7mW8q-47dbhPhvSaYuNTYWu_S-dDRhjq3za7nrLtg/s320/376766767_1821224455002947_7730778432255108638_n.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>The Vitakkasanthana Sutta, as spoken by the Blessed One at Savatthi in Jeta's Grove, Anathapindika's monastery, outlines five methods to address and manage unwholesome thoughts. Here are the highlighted methods along with corresponding similes:<p></p><p><br /></p><p>Shifting Attention to Skillful Themes: If unskillful thoughts arise while focusing on a particular theme, the monk redirects attention to a skillful theme. This method is likened to a skilled carpenter using a small peg to dislodge a larger one.<br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Scrutinizing Drawbacks of Unwholesome Thoughts: When unskillful thoughts persist, the monk examines their drawbacks, acknowledging their unskillfulness, blame, and stressful nature. This method is likened to a person being horrified by an unsuitable adornment like a carcass hanging around their neck.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihIZcMC3Vq1y3RyxtQwqJ1413vBBHrZ83gxy8K463Z4N-gT9380QLidvOdQ7lZhRcAw9CfnSBC3Trh2nsmlozLXVi_FcLgKODXlzW7nqVA3x6DTucCHCAermQK4MVvZFg8g1VuaRqtyvdiNdEshwIh4hV90lJQOR4xDoGBNHG5KijozynvoNWQL9g-jVE/s2048/376852308_1821224371669622_6715982702173269134_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihIZcMC3Vq1y3RyxtQwqJ1413vBBHrZ83gxy8K463Z4N-gT9380QLidvOdQ7lZhRcAw9CfnSBC3Trh2nsmlozLXVi_FcLgKODXlzW7nqVA3x6DTucCHCAermQK4MVvZFg8g1VuaRqtyvdiNdEshwIh4hV90lJQOR4xDoGBNHG5KijozynvoNWQL9g-jVE/s320/376852308_1821224371669622_6715982702173269134_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>Paying No Mind to Unwholesome Thoughts: If unskillful thoughts continue, the monk disregards them entirely. This method is compared to someone consciously averting their eyes from undesirable sights.</p><p><br /></p><p>Relaxing Thought-Fabrication: If unskillful thoughts persist, the monk attends to the relaxation of thought-fabrication regarding those thoughts. This process is compared to a person adjusting their physical posture from grosser to more refined positions.</p><p><br /></p><p>Beating Down Unwholesome Thoughts: If unskillful thoughts still arise, the monk intensely and actively suppresses and restrains them with firm determination. This method is likened to a strong individual dominating and subduing a weaker person in a conflict.</p><p><br /></p><p>The sutta emphasizes that a monk who masters these methods gains control over thought sequences, enabling the ability to think or not think specific thoughts at will. This mastery leads to the severance of craving, liberation from fetters, and the cessation of suffering and stress.</p>Dhamma USAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07261106376338704506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5247423068240722739.post-69455249614545859162023-09-18T13:40:00.006-07:002023-09-23T07:23:31.371-07:00Children’s Program at Nevada Buddhist Vihara: (Part 7)<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-large;">Children’s Program at Nevada Buddhist Vihara:</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-large;">(Part 7)</span></b></div><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">September 17, 2023</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">By Bhante Sumitta (PhD)</span></p><p style="text-align: center;">(Part 1)</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhugafzShVOjU7fmYMNVM2gL6kdyJL_YxygXONCZadHeX8DwGDC5wb3nntmX5zgLWkycNZmPW42ojWbOemaFIHwi0O4yxB60yqDnMDbko5QPcQtEdq4_O6mUVQtdehIWUDxrOWTW50UPVR1pDHFsMjePyWo1Xw4532EGVBUIj21zOhfL1_MvJG-MNovpJY/s1280/Sunday%20Dhamma%20Talks%20(1280%20%C3%97%20720%20px)%20(1).png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1280" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhugafzShVOjU7fmYMNVM2gL6kdyJL_YxygXONCZadHeX8DwGDC5wb3nntmX5zgLWkycNZmPW42ojWbOemaFIHwi0O4yxB60yqDnMDbko5QPcQtEdq4_O6mUVQtdehIWUDxrOWTW50UPVR1pDHFsMjePyWo1Xw4532EGVBUIj21zOhfL1_MvJG-MNovpJY/s320/Sunday%20Dhamma%20Talks%20(1280%20%C3%97%20720%20px)%20(1).png" width="320" /></a></div><p><span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-large;"></span><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800180; font-size: x-large;"><b>Inspiring Young Minds: </b></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Bhante Sumitta's Motivational Program </b></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-size: medium;">@Nevada Buddhist Vihara</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;">Published on September 18, 2023</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.org/event/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist-vihara/" target="_blank">Here</a> for the event details</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dhammausa/posts/pfbid07NTm5M7doWy6jGgydXyBMzhhSrE6Kas2jW6peedvcRdtwtB4PfpvKk9G9DbU7eYTl?comment_id=297147426375913&notif_id=1695051388688328&notif_t=feed_comment&ref=notif" target="_blank">Here</a> photo clicks of the event.</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 1</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_18.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 2</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_83.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 3</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_54.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 4</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_75.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 5</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_70.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 6</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_79.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 7</p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><b>Part 6 of the Material</b></span></span></p><p><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-size: medium;">Buddhist teaching on how to cope with procrastination:</span></b></i></p><p><i>Today, I would like to share with you the profound teachings from Buddhism on how to cope with procrastination. Procrastination is a common struggle for many of us, and the wisdom found in Buddhist philosophy can offer valuable insights and guidance on how to overcome this habit.</i></p><p><i>In Buddhism, there are several key principles and practices that can help us address procrastination:</i></p><p><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Mindfulness: </span></b></i></p><p><i>Central to Buddhist teachings is the concept of mindfulness. Mindfulness involves being fully present in the moment, without judgment. When we procrastinate, we often become preoccupied with worries about the future or regrets about the past. By practicing mindfulness, we learn to focus on the task at hand, reducing the temptation to delay.</i></p><p><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Awareness of Impermanence: </span></b></i></p><p><i>Buddhism teaches us about the impermanence of all things, including time. Procrastination often stems from the illusion that we have an endless amount of time to complete our tasks. By recognizing the fleeting nature of time and life itself, we are motivated to make the most of the present moment and take action promptly.</i></p><p><i><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><b>Right Intention (Samma Sankappa): </b></span></i></p><p><i>One of the components of the Noble Eightfold Path, right intention emphasizes the importance of setting wholesome and skillful intentions. When faced with procrastination, we can ask ourselves whether our intentions align with our long-term goals and values. Developing a clear and positive intention can inspire us to overcome procrastination.</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><b>Effort (Samma Vayama): </b></span></i></p><p><i>Effort is another element of the Noble Eightfold Path. It encourages us to put forth diligent and consistent effort in our endeavors. Overcoming procrastination requires us to commit to our tasks and persistently work on them, regardless of any distractions or obstacles.</i></p><p><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Compassion: </span></b></i></p><p><i>Buddhism teaches us to cultivate compassion, not only for others but also for ourselves. Procrastination often leads to self-criticism and negative self-talk. By practicing self-compassion, we can be more forgiving of our shortcomings and use positive reinforcement to motivate ourselves to take action.</i></p><p><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Non-Attachment: </span></b></i></p><p><i>The Buddhist concept of non-attachment reminds us that our suffering often arises from clinging to desires and outcomes. When we procrastinate, we may be attached to the idea of perfection or fear failure. Letting go of these attachments can free us from the paralysis of procrastination and allow us to approach our tasks with a more relaxed mindset.</i></p><p><i><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><b>Meditation: </b></span></i></p><p><i>Regular meditation practice is a fundamental aspect of Buddhism. Meditation can help us develop greater mental clarity, focus, and discipline. These qualities are essential for overcoming procrastination as they enable us to stay on track and resist distractions.</i></p><p><i>In conclusion, the teachings of Buddhism offer valuable guidance on how to cope with procrastination. By practicing mindfulness, embracing impermanence, setting right intentions, putting forth effort, cultivating compassion, practicing non-attachment, and incorporating meditation into our lives, we can gradually overcome the habit of procrastination. Remember that change takes time and patience, but with dedication to these principles, we can lead more mindful, purposeful, and productive lives.

Waking up early gives them extra time to prepare for the day and reduces the rush.</i><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Hydrate: </span></b></i></li></ul><i>The first thing they should do after waking up is drink a glass of water. Explain to them that their body gets dehydrated during sleep, and water helps wake up their systems and stay refreshed.</i><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Morning Stretch: </span></b></i></li></ul><i>Teach them some simple stretching exercises to loosen their muscles and get their blood flowing. This can be as basic as reaching for the sky or touching their toes.</i><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Healthy Breakfast: </span></b></i></li></ul><i>Stress the importance of eating a nutritious breakfast. A balanced meal in the morning provides energy for the day and helps them concentrate better at school.</i><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Plan the Day: </span></b></i></li></ul><i>Sit down with them and create a to-do list for the day.

Buddhism teaches us some wonderful secrets that can help you achieve your dreams and become a happier person overall. These secrets are like special ingredients for a magical recipe.</i></p><p><i><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><b>Persistent Effort (uṭṭhāna-sampadā): </b></span></i></p><p><i>This is like the superhero power of never giving up. Imagine you're trying to learn a new skill, like riding a bike. You might fall down many times, but if you keep trying and never give up, you'll eventually learn to ride that bike like a pro. It's all about hard work and determination, like a never-ending adventure.</i></p><p><i><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><b>Watchfulness (ārakkha-sampadā): </b></span></i></p><p><i>This is like having super senses. Just like Spider-Man senses danger with his spider-sense, you can learn to pay attention and be aware of what's happening around you. This helps you make good choices and stay safe, like knowing when to cross the street or when to listen to your parents.</i></p><p><i><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><b>Good Friendship (kaḷyānamittatā): </b></span></i></p><p><i>Think about your best friends, the ones who make you smile and feel happy. Good friendship is like having a team of superheroes by your side. They support you, cheer you up when you're sad, and help you become a better person. So, choose your friends wisely, and be a good friend in return.</i></p><p><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Balanced Livelihood (</span></b></i><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">sama-jīvikatā</span></b></i><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">): </span></b></i></p><p><i>Imagine you're a tightrope walker, and you have to balance perfectly to stay on the rope without falling. Balanced livelihood means finding the right balance in your life, like balancing playtime and homework. It's about making sure you have time for everything you love without getting too stressed.</i></p><p><i>Now, let's put it all together: If you want to achieve your dreams and be the best version of yourself, remember to never give up (persistent effort), be aware of what's happening around you (watchfulness), surround yourself with great friends (good friendship), and find the right balance in everything you do (balanced livelihood).</i></p><p><i>These teachings are like your very own superpowers, and when you use them wisely, you can achieve amazing things and make the world a better place. So, dream big, little one, and remember these Buddhist secrets to help you on your journey to becoming a real-life superhero!</i></p><p><i>#############</i></p><div><br /></div>Dhamma USAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07261106376338704506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5247423068240722739.post-62800465428203662822023-09-18T09:45:00.005-07:002023-09-18T14:12:07.209-07:00Children’s Program at Nevada Buddhist Vihara: (Part 3)<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-large;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Children’s Program at Nevada Buddhist Vihara:</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>(Part 3)</b></div></span><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">September 17, 2023</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">By Bhante Sumitta (PhD)</span></p><p style="text-align: center;">(Part 1)</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhugafzShVOjU7fmYMNVM2gL6kdyJL_YxygXONCZadHeX8DwGDC5wb3nntmX5zgLWkycNZmPW42ojWbOemaFIHwi0O4yxB60yqDnMDbko5QPcQtEdq4_O6mUVQtdehIWUDxrOWTW50UPVR1pDHFsMjePyWo1Xw4532EGVBUIj21zOhfL1_MvJG-MNovpJY/s1280/Sunday%20Dhamma%20Talks%20(1280%20%C3%97%20720%20px)%20(1).png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1280" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhugafzShVOjU7fmYMNVM2gL6kdyJL_YxygXONCZadHeX8DwGDC5wb3nntmX5zgLWkycNZmPW42ojWbOemaFIHwi0O4yxB60yqDnMDbko5QPcQtEdq4_O6mUVQtdehIWUDxrOWTW50UPVR1pDHFsMjePyWo1Xw4532EGVBUIj21zOhfL1_MvJG-MNovpJY/s320/Sunday%20Dhamma%20Talks%20(1280%20%C3%97%20720%20px)%20(1).png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800180; font-size: x-large;"><b>Inspiring Young Minds: </b></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Bhante Sumitta's Motivational Program </b></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-size: medium;">@Nevada Buddhist Vihara</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;">Published on September 18, 2023</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.org/event/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist-vihara/" target="_blank">Here</a> for the event details</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dhammausa/posts/pfbid07NTm5M7doWy6jGgydXyBMzhhSrE6Kas2jW6peedvcRdtwtB4PfpvKk9G9DbU7eYTl?comment_id=297147426375913&notif_id=1695051388688328&notif_t=feed_comment&ref=notif" target="_blank">Here</a> photo clicks of the event.</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 1</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_18.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 2</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_83.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 3</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_54.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 4</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_75.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 5</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_70.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 6</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_79.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 7</p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><b>Part 3 of the Material</b></span></span></p><p><i><b><span style="color: #800180; font-size: large;">Sigalovada Sutta on Idleness:</span></b></i></p><p><i>"There are, young householder, these six evil consequences in being addicted to idleness:</i></p><p><i>"He does not work, saying:</i></p><p><i>(i) that it is extremely cold,</i></p><p><i>(ii) that it is extremely hot,</i></p><p><i>(iii) that it is too late in the evening,</i></p><p><i>(iv) that it is too early in the morning,</i></p><p><i>(v) that he is extremely hungry,</i></p><p><i>(vi) that he is too full.</i></p><p><i>"Living in this way, he leaves many duties undone, new wealth he does not get, and wealth he has acquired dwindles away."</i></p><p><i>====</i></p><p><i>Now let's explore this passage from the Sigalovada Sutta in a way that can inspire children:</i></p><p><i>Imagine you have a magical opportunity to make your dreams come true, but there are some obstacles in your way. The Buddha, who was a very wise teacher, once told a story that can help you understand how to overcome these obstacles and achieve your goals.</i></p><p><i>In the story, there's a person who doesn't like to do any work. They come up with six excuses for not doing their tasks:</i></p><p><i>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>"It's extremely cold." They say it's too chilly to do anything, so they stay in their cozy blankets.</i></p><p><i>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>"It's extremely hot." When the sun shines brightly, they complain it's too hot to do anything active.</i></p><p><i>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>"It's too late in the evening." In the evening, they want to relax and play instead of working.</i></p><p><i>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>"It's too early in the morning." When it's early and the world is quiet, they'd rather sleep in than start their day.</i></p><p><i>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>"I'm extremely hungry." When they feel hungry, they choose to eat and forget about their responsibilities.</i></p><p><i>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>"I'm too full." After eating, they feel too stuffed to do anything else.</i></p><p><i>Now, here's the exciting part: The Buddha tells us that when we keep making these excuses and avoid our responsibilities, we face some problems:</i></p><p><i>We leave many duties undone. This means we miss out on doing important things that can help us grow and learn.</i></p><p><i>We don't get new wealth. Think of new wealth as all the wonderful things you can achieve and the new skills you can learn.</i></p><p><i>The wealth we already have dwindles away. The good things we already have in our lives can start to disappear because we're not taking care of them.</i></p><p><i>So, what's the lesson here? The Buddha is telling us that if we want to make our dreams come true, we should not make excuses like "it's too hot" or "I'm too hungry." Instead, we should be brave and do the things we need to do, even when it's a bit challenging.</i></p><p><i>Just like when you study for a test even if you'd rather play, or when you help your parents even if you'd rather watch TV, you're learning to overcome these excuses. And that's how you'll grow, achieve your dreams, and keep all the wonderful things you already have in your life.</i></p><p><i>So, remember, be brave, work hard, and don't let those "too hot" or "too hungry" excuses stop you from becoming the amazing person you're meant to be!</i></p><div><br /></div>Dhamma USAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07261106376338704506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5247423068240722739.post-13733594647713113812023-09-18T09:41:00.002-07:002023-09-18T14:12:29.752-07:00Children’s Program at Nevada Buddhist Vihara: (Part 2)<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-large;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Children’s Program at Nevada Buddhist Vihara:</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>(Part 2)</b></div></span><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">September 17, 2023</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">By Bhante Sumitta (PhD)</span></p><p style="text-align: center;">(Part 1)</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhugafzShVOjU7fmYMNVM2gL6kdyJL_YxygXONCZadHeX8DwGDC5wb3nntmX5zgLWkycNZmPW42ojWbOemaFIHwi0O4yxB60yqDnMDbko5QPcQtEdq4_O6mUVQtdehIWUDxrOWTW50UPVR1pDHFsMjePyWo1Xw4532EGVBUIj21zOhfL1_MvJG-MNovpJY/s1280/Sunday%20Dhamma%20Talks%20(1280%20%C3%97%20720%20px)%20(1).png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1280" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhugafzShVOjU7fmYMNVM2gL6kdyJL_YxygXONCZadHeX8DwGDC5wb3nntmX5zgLWkycNZmPW42ojWbOemaFIHwi0O4yxB60yqDnMDbko5QPcQtEdq4_O6mUVQtdehIWUDxrOWTW50UPVR1pDHFsMjePyWo1Xw4532EGVBUIj21zOhfL1_MvJG-MNovpJY/s320/Sunday%20Dhamma%20Talks%20(1280%20%C3%97%20720%20px)%20(1).png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800180; font-size: x-large;"><b>Inspiring Young Minds: </b></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Bhante Sumitta's Motivational Program </b></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-size: medium;">@Nevada Buddhist Vihara</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;">Published on September 18, 2023</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.org/event/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist-vihara/" target="_blank">Here</a> for the event details</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dhammausa/posts/pfbid07NTm5M7doWy6jGgydXyBMzhhSrE6Kas2jW6peedvcRdtwtB4PfpvKk9G9DbU7eYTl?comment_id=297147426375913&notif_id=1695051388688328&notif_t=feed_comment&ref=notif" target="_blank">Here</a> photo clicks of the event.</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 1</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_18.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 2</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_83.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 3</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_54.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 4</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_75.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 5</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_70.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 6</p><p>Check <a href="https://www.dhammausa.com/2023/09/childrens-program-at-nevada-buddhist_79.html" target="_blank">Here</a> for Part 7</p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><b>Part 2 of the Material</b></span></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>Udyamena hi sidhyanti karyani na manorathaih </i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>Na his suptaysa simhasya pravishanti mukhe mrigah: </i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>"Efforts, not wishes, lead to success - just as deer do not enter the mouth of a sleeping lion."</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>Have you ever heard of a deer coming and entering the mouth of a lion while he sleeps? In that case, why are we led to believe that we can achieve success by merely thinking about it? One can achieve success only by working hard and through dedication.</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i><span style="color: #990000;">%%%%%%%%%%%%%</span></i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>Let's break down this ancient saying (maxim / aphorism) to inspire children with its wisdom:</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i><b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;">Imagine this: </span></b></i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>Have you ever seen a lion sleeping peacefully in the jungle? Lions are powerful and fierce animals, but even they need to rest. Now, picture a gentle deer quietly grazing nearby. It's a peaceful scene, right?</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><b>But here's the thing: </b></span></i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>In the saying, it asks us if we've ever heard of that deer suddenly jumping into the lion's mouth while the lion is asleep. Sounds crazy, doesn't it? Well, that's because it is!</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>Now, you might be wondering, "Why are we even talking about lions and deer?" Well, this saying is like a secret message from wise people a long time ago, and it's here to teach us something very important.</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>You see, in life, we all have dreams and goals. Maybe you want to be a brilliant scientist, a fantastic artist, or a famous athlete. These dreams are like our own beautiful deer, full of potential and possibilities.</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i><span style="color: #990000; font-size: medium;"><b>But here's the catch: </b></span></i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>Just like that deer doesn't jump into the lion's mouth, our dreams won't come true just by thinking about them or wishing for them. Imagine if that deer just stood there, hoping to become a lion's meal - that would be crazy, right? Well, it's just as crazy to think that our dreams will come true without any effort.</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>So, what's the secret? It's "Udyamena hi sidhyanti karyani," which means "Success is achieved through effort and hard work." Just like that deer has to graze, run, and be alert in the jungle, we have to work hard and stay focused on our dreams.</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>Here's how you can use this wisdom to inspire yourself:</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Dream Big: </span></b></i></li></ul><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>It's wonderful to have big dreams and aspirations. Imagine what you want to achieve and how amazing it would be.</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Plan and Work: </span></b></i></li></ul><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>Now, just like the deer, make a plan and start working towards your dream. Study, practice, and keep learning.</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><i><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><b>Stay Persistent: </b></span></i></li></ul><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>Sometimes, it might feel tough, just like the deer might face challenges in the jungle. But remember, never give up. Keep trying, and you'll get better and closer to your dream.</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Celebrate Success: </span></b></i></li></ul><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>When you achieve something, no matter how small, celebrate it! It's like the deer finding a fresh patch of grass to eat.</i></p><p style="text-align: left;"><i>So, remember, dreams are incredible, but they need your hard work and dedication to come true. Don't wait for your dreams to jump into your lap like that deer into the lion's mouth. Be like the deer that works hard, and one day, you'll turn your dreams into reality.

(Sn 1.6: Parābhava Sutta | Downfall)</i></p><p><i>**********************************************************************</i></p><p>Being fond of sleep, fond of company, indolent,</p><p>Lazy and irritable, this is a cause of one’s downfall.</p><p><i>**********************************************************************</i></p><p>Imagine two friends, Sam and Lily. Sam loves to sleep in late every day, and when he's awake, he spends most of his time chatting with friends or watching TV. He often gets annoyed over small things and doesn't like helping others.</p><p>On the other hand, there's Lily. She wakes up early, full of energy, and starts her day with a smile. She's always ready to learn new things, help her family, and be a good friend to others.</p><p>Now, let's look at the saying: "Niddasili sabhasili, anutthata ca yo naro, Alaso kodhapannano, tam parabhavato mukham."</p><p>It's telling us that being like Sam, who loves to sleep and spend time chatting without doing anything useful, is not a good path to follow. Why? Here's the breakdown:</p><p>Fond of Sleep (Niddasili): Imagine if you spent most of your day sleeping, you'd miss out on all the fun activities, learning opportunities, and adventures that the world has to offer. Sleep is essential, but too much of it can make you miss exciting moments.</p><p>Fond of Company (Sabhasili): Socializing is great, but if you spend all your time with friends who aren't interested in doing something useful or learning, you might miss out on growing and discovering new things together.</p><p>Indolent (Anutthata): This word means being lazy or not motivated to do anything. Imagine having all these fantastic ideas and dreams but never taking action on them. That's what being indolent is like.</p><p>Lazy (Alaso): Laziness is when you don't want to put in the effort to do something, even if it's important or exciting. If you're lazy, you might miss out on all the fun and exciting things life has to offer.</p><p>Irritable (Kodhapannano): When you're irritable, you get angry easily, and it's hard to get along with others. This can make friendships difficult and less enjoyable.</p><p>So, what's the big message here for children? It's telling you not to be like Sam but to be more like Lily:</p><p>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Wake up with enthusiasm and energy.</p><p>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Be curious and excited about learning new things.</p><p>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Help your family and friends when they need you.</p><p>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Stay active and engaged in life's adventures.</p><p>•<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Don't let anger and irritation get in the way of your happiness and relationships.</p><p>By being like Lily, you'll be on a path to success and happiness. You'll make the most of your time, learn, grow, and build strong, positive relationships with others. So, remember, don't let sleepiness, laziness, and irritability be the cause of your downfall. Choose enthusiasm, curiosity, and kindness, and you'll find a world full of exciting opportunities waiting for you!</p><div><br /></div>Dhamma USAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07261106376338704506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5247423068240722739.post-28949501377805327792022-12-10T05:28:00.004-08:002022-12-25T10:37:31.193-08:00Funeral Service<p> </p><h1 style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 32px; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.5in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;"><b><span style="font-size: xx-large;">1.

As Buddhism spread, it absorbed or coexisted with local religions, creating some distinctive yet interrelated forms with unique rituals.<br />Is Buddhism a flexible religion?<br />Finally, Buddhism was a flexible belief system, capable of adapting and changing to fit very different places and people. Map showing the spread and major divisions of Buddhism.<br /><b>FLEXIBILITY<br /></b>Flexibility (mudutà) in the psychological sense is the quality of being able to see changes and nuances in a situation or principle and adjust to them accordingly. In the Mettà Sutta, the Buddha advocates flexibility together with several other rarely discussed but important virtues: `One should be capable, straightforward, very straightforward, easy to speak to, flexible and modest' (Sn.143). The Jàtaka advises the courtier: `Be as pliant as bamboo, and then you will be able to live in the king's court'(Ja.VI,295).<br /> The Buddha's flexibility is most apparent in his attitude to rules. He made rules for monks and nuns to address specific problems and he expected everyone to take them seriously and abide by them. However, he was wise enough to understand that no rule can cover every possible situation, that situations change and, therefore, that rules should be changed when necessary. In the Vinaya we see how rules were adjusted and modified and just before his passing the Buddha told his disciples that they could change minor rules when the need arose (D.II,154). Intellectual flexibility (cittamudutà) is important also (Dhs.45). To have views and opinions but without being pedantic, dogmatic or rigid about them is an important aspect of detachment.

Evaṃ me sutaṃ: ekaṃ samayaṃ bhagavā rājagahe viharati veḷuvane kalandakanivāpe. Tena kho pana samayena rājagahe suppabuddho nāma kuṭṭhi ahosi, manussadaḷiddo manussakapaṇo manussavarāko.<br />Thus, have I heard. On one occasion the Blessed One was staying near Rājagaha at the Bamboo Grove, the Squirrels' Sanctuary. And on that occasion in Rājagaha there was a leper named Suppabuddha, a poor, miserable wretch of a person. <br />2. Tena kho pana samayena bhagavā mahatiyā parisāya parivuto dhammaṃ desento nisinno hoti. Addasā kho suppabuddho kuṭṭhi taṃ mahājanakāyaṃ dūratova sannipatitaṃ. Disvānassa etadahosi: " nissaṃsayaṃ kho ettha kiñci khādanīyaṃ vā bhojanīyaṃ vā bhājiyissati. Yannūnāhaṃ yena so mahājanakāyo tenupasaṅkameyyaṃ. Appevanāmettha kiñci khādanīyaṃ vā bhojanīyaṃ vā labheyyanti".<br />And on that occasion the Blessed One was sitting surrounded by a large assembly, teaching the Dhamma. Suppabuddha the leper saw the large gathering of people from afar and thought to himself, "Without a doubt, someone must be distributing staple or non-staple food there. Why don't I go over to that large group of people, and maybe there I'll get some staple or non-staple food." <br />3. Atha kho suppabuddho kuṭṭhi yena so mahājanakāyo tenupasaṅkami. Addasā kho suppabuddho kuṭṭhi bhagavantaṃ mahatiyā parisāya parivutaṃ dhammaṃ desentaṃ nisinnaṃ. Disvānassa etadahosi: "na kho ettha kiñci khādanīyaṃ vā bhojanīyaṃ vā bhājiyati, samaṇo ayaṃ gotamo parisatiṃ dhammaṃ deseti. Yannūnāhampi dhammaṃ suṇeyyanti. Tattheva ekamantaṃ nisīdi. "Ahampi dhammaṃ sossāmī"ti. Atha kho bhagavā sabbāvantaṃ parisaṃ [PTS Page 049] [\q 49/] cetasā cetoparicca manasākāsi 'ko nu kho idha bhabbo dhammaṃ viññātuṃ?"Ti.<br />So he went over to the large group of people. Then he saw the Blessed One sitting surrounded by a large assembly, teaching the Dhamma. On seeing this, he realized, "There's no one distributing staple or non-staple food there. That's Gotama the contemplative (sitting) surrounded, teaching the Dhamma. Why don't I listen to the Dhamma?" So he sat down to one side right there, [thinking,] "I, too, will listen to the Dhamma." Then the Blessed One, having encompassed the awareness of the entire assembly with his awareness, asked himself, "Now who here is capable of understanding the Dhamma?"<br />4. Addasā kho bhagavā suppabuddhaṃ kuṭṭhiṃ tassaṃ parisāyaṃ nisinnaṃ, disvānassa etadahosi: " ayaṃ kho idha bhabbo dhammaṃ viññātuṃ"ti. Suppabuddhaṃ kuṭṭhiṃ ārabbha ānupubbīkathaṃ1 kathesi. Seyyathidaṃ?<br />He saw Suppabuddha the leper sitting in the assembly, and on seeing him the thought occurred to him, "This person here is capable of understanding the Dhamma." So, aiming at Suppabuddha the leper, he gave a step-by-step talk, i.e.,<br />Dānakathaṃ, he proclaimed a talk on generosity, <br />sīlakathaṃ, on virtue, <br />saggakathaṃ, on heaven; <br />kāmānaṃ ādīnavaṃ okāraṃ saṅkilesaṃ, he declared the drawbacks, degradation, & corruption of sensuality, <br />nekkhamme ca2 ānisaṃsaṃ pakāsesi. and the rewards of renunciation.<br />Yadā bhagavā aññāsi, Then when the Blessed One knew <br />suppabuddhaṃ kuṭṭhiṃ kallacittaṃ muducittaṃ vinīvaraṇacittaṃ udaggacittaṃ pasannacittaṃ. that Suppabuddha the leper's mind was ready, malleable, free from hindrances, elevated, & clear, <br />Atha yā buddhānaṃ sāmukkaṃsikā dhammadesanā taṃ pakāsesi, dukkhaṃ samudayaṃ nirodhaṃ maggaṃ. <br />he then gave the Dhamma-talk peculiar to Awakened Ones, i.e., stress, origination, cessation, & path.<br />Seyyathāpi nāma suddhaṃ vatthaṃ apagatakālakaṃ sammadeva rajanaṃ patigaṇheyya. Evameva suppabuddhassa kuṭṭhissa tasmiṃ yeva āsane virajaṃ vītamalaṃ dhammacakkhuṃ udapādi:<br />And just as a clean cloth, free of stains, would properly absorb a dye, in the same way, as Suppabuddha the leper was sitting in that very seat, the dustless, stainless Dhamma eye arose within him, <br />'yaṃ kiñci samudayadhammaṃ, sabbaṃ taṃ nirodhadhammanti. '<br />"Whatever is subject to origination is all subject to cessation."<br />5. Atha kho suppabuddho kuṭṭhi diṭṭhadhammo pattadhammo viditadhammo pariyogāḷhadhammo tiṇṇavicikiccho vigatakathaṃkatho vesārajjappatto aparappaccayo satthusāsane, uṭṭhāyāsanā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami. <br />Having seen the Dhamma, reached the Dhamma, known the Dhamma, gained a foothold in the Dhamma, having crossed over & beyond doubt, having had no more perplexity, having gained fearlessness & independence from others with regard to the Teacher's message, he got up from his seat and went to the Blessed One.<br />Upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṃ abhivādetvā ekamantaṃ nisīdi. Ekamantaṃ nisinno kho suppabuddho kuṭṭhi bhagavantaṃ etadavoca:<br />On arrival, having bowed down to the Blessed One, he sat to one side. As he was sitting there he said to the Blessed One,<br />"abhikkantaṃ bhante, abhikkantaṃ bhante, <br />"Magnificent, lord! Magnificent!<br />seyyathāpi bhante, nikkujjitaṃ vā ukkujjeyya, <br />Just as if he were to place upright what was overturned,<br />paṭicchannaṃ vā vivareyya, <br />to reveal what was hidden,<br />mūḷhassa vā maggaṃ ācikkheyya, <br />to show the way to one who was lost,<br />andhakāre vā telapajjotaṃ dhāreyya cakkhumanto rūpāni dakkhintī"ti. <br />or to carry a lamp into the dark so that those with eyes could see forms, <br />Evameva bhagavatā anekapariyāyena dhamme pakāsito. <br />in the same way has the Blessed One — through many lines of reasoning — made the Dhamma clear.<br />Esāhaṃ bhante bhagavantaṃ saraṇaṃ gacchāmi, dhammañcabhikkhusaṅghañca.<br />I go to the Blessed One for refuge, to the Dhamma, and to the Community of monks. <br />Upāsakaṃ maṃ bhagavā dhāretu, ajjatagge pāṇupetaṃ saraṇaṃ gata"nti.<br />May the Blessed One remember me as a lay follower who has gone to him for refuge, from this day forward, for life."<br />6. Atha kho suppabuddho kuṭṭhi bhagavatā dhammiyā kathāya sandassito, samādapito, samuttejito, sampahaṃsito, bhagavato bhāsitaṃ abhinanditvā anumoditvā uṭṭhāyāsanā bhagavantaṃ abhivādetvā padakkhiṇaṃ katvā pakkāmi.<br />Then Suppabuddha the leper, having been instructed, urged, roused, & encouraged by the Blessed One's Dhamma talk, delighting in & approving of the Blessed One's words, got up from his seat, bowed down to the Blessed One and left, circling him to the right.<br />Atha kho suppabuddhaṃ kuṭṭhiṃ acirapakkantaṃ1 gāvī taruṇavacchā adhipātetvā jīvitā voropesi.<br />Not long after his departure he was attacked & killed by a cow with a young calf.<br />7. Atha kho sambahulā bhikkhū yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkamiṃsu. Upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṃ abhivādetvā ekamantaṃ nisīdiṃsu. Ekamantaṃ nisinnā kho te bhikkhū bhagavantaṃ etadavocuṃ: "yo so bhante, suppabuddho nāma kuṭṭhi bhagavatā dhammiyā kathāya sandassito, samādapito, samuttejito, sampahaṃsito, so kālakato. Tassa kā gati, ko abhisamparāyo"ti?<br />Then a large number of monks went to the Blessed One and, on arrival, having bowed down to him, sat to one side. As they were sitting there, they said to the Blessed One, "Lord, the leper named Suppabuddha, whom the Blessed One instructed, urged, roused, & encouraged with a Dhamma talk, has died. What is his destination? What is his future state?"<br />8. "Paṇḍito bhikkhave, suppabuddho kuṭṭhi, paccapādi dhammassānudhammaṃ, na ca maṃ dhammādhikaraṇaṃ vihesesi. Suppabuddho bhikkhave, kuṭṭhi tiṇṇaṃ saṃyojanānaṃ parikkhayā sotāpanno avinipātadhammo niyato sambodhiparāyano"ti.<br />"Monks, Suppabuddha the leper was wise. He practiced the Dhamma in accordance with the Dhamma and did not pester me with issues related to the Dhamma. With the destruction of the first three fetters, he is a stream-winner, not subject to states of deprivation, headed for self-awakening for sure."<br />9. Evaṃ vutte aññataro bhikkhū bhagavantaṃ etadavoca: "ko nu kho bhante, hetu, ko paccayo yena suppabuddho kuṭṭhi ahosi, manussadaḷiddo manussakapaṇo manussavarāko?"Ti.<br />When this was said, one of the monks said to the Blessed One, "Lord, what was the cause, what was the reason, why Suppabuddha the leper was such a poor, miserable wretch of a person?" <br />10. "Bhūtapubbaṃ bhikkhave suppabuddho kuṭṭhi imasmiṃ yeva rājagahe seṭṭhiputto ahosi. So uyyānabhūmiṃ niyyanto addasa tagarasikhiṃ paccekabuddhaṃ nagaraṃ piṇḍāya pavisantaṃ, disvānassa etadahosi: <br />"Once, monks, in this very Rājagaha, Suppabuddha the leper was the son of a rich money-lender. While being escorted to a pleasure park, he saw Tagarasikhin the Private Buddha[1] going for alms in the city. On seeing him, the thought occurred to him,<br />"kvāyaṃ kuṭṭhi kuṭṭhicīvarena hi vicaratī"ti, niṭṭhuhitvā apasabyato2 karitvā pakkāmi. So tassa kammassa vipākena bahūni vassāni bahūni vassasatāni bahūni vassasahassāni bahūni vassasatasahassāni niraye paccittha. <br />'Who is this leper prowling about?' Spitting and disrespectfully turning his left side to Tagarasikhin the Private Buddha, he left. As a result of that deed he boiled in hell for many years, many hundreds of years, many thousands of years, many hundreds of thousands of years. <br />Tasseva kammassa vipākāvasesena imasmiṃ yeva rājagahe kuṭṭhi ahosi, manussadaḷiddo manussakapaṇo manussavarāko.<br />And then as a remainder of the result of that deed he became a poor, miserable wretch of a person in this very Rājagaha. <br />So tathāgatappaveditaṃ dhammavinayaṃ āgamma saddhaṃ samādiyi, sīlaṃ samādiyi, sutaṃ samādiyi, cāgaṃ samādiyi, paññaṃ samādiyi. <br />But on encountering the Dhamma & Vinaya made known by the Tathāgata, he acquired conviction, virtue, learning, relinquishment, & discernment. <br />So tathāgatappaveditaṃ dhammavinayaṃ āgamma saddhaṃ samādiyitvā sīlaṃ samādiyitvā sutaṃ samādiyitvā cāgaṃ samādiyitvā paññaṃ samādiyitvā kāyassa bhedā paraṃ maraṇā sugatiṃ saggaṃ lokaṃ upapanno devānaṃ tāvatiṃsānaṃ sahabyataṃ. So tattha aññe deve atirocati vaṇṇena ceva yasasā cāti.<br />Having acquired conviction, virtue, learning, relinquishment, & discernment on encountering the Dhamma & Vinaya made known by the Tathāgata, now — on the break-up of the body, after death — he has reappeared in a good destination, the heavenly world, in company with the devas of the heaven of the Thirty-three. There he outshines the other devas both in beauty & in rank." <br />11. Atha kho bhagavā etamatthaṃ viditvā tāyaṃ velāyaṃ imaṃ udānaṃ udānesi: <br />"Cakkhumā visamāniva vijjamāne parakkame,<br /> Paṇḍito jīvalokasmiṃ pāpāni parivajjaye"ti.<br />Then, on realizing the significance of that, the Blessed One on that occasion exclaimed:<br />As one with eyes & having energy would<br />treacherous, uneven places,<br />so a wise one, in the world of life, should avoid evil deeds.[2]<br />Note<br />1.A Private Buddha is one who gains awakening without relying on the teachings of others, but who cannot formulate the Dhamma to teach others in the way a Full Buddha can.<br />2.This verse is an example of a "lamp" — a poetic figure explained in the note to Ud 1.1. In this case the lamp-word is "should avoid."<br />Transferring Merits to Devas & Other Beings:<br />Ettāvatā ca amhehi - Sambhataṁ puñña-sampadaṁ<br />Sabbe devā / bhūtā / sattā anumodantu - Sabba-sampatti-siddhiyā<br />(For the sake of all attainment & success, may all heavenly beings / spirits / sentient beings rejoice in the extent to which we have gathered a consummation of merit.)<br />Transferring Merits to Departed Ones:<br />Idam me ñātinam hotu - <br />sukhitā hontu ñātayo.<br />(May all departed ones receive this merit, share this merit and be well and happy and healthy whereever they are!)<br />Aspiration for Kalyānamitta friends:<br />Iminā punna-kammena - Mā me bāla-samāgamo <br />Satam samāgamo hotu - Yāva Nibbāna-pattiyā.<br />(By means of this meritorious deed - May I never join with the foolish. <br />May I join always with the wise - Until the time I attain Nibbana.)<br />Blessing to All:<br />Sabbītiyo vivajjantu sabbarogo vinassatu,<br />mā te bhavatvantarāyo, sukhī dīghāyuko bhava!<span style="white-space: pre;"> <br /></span>(May you avoid all calamities and may all disease be destroyed,<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>may there be no obstacles for you, may you be happy and live long!)<br />Bhavatu sabbamaṅgalaṁ, rakkhantu sabbadevatā, <br />sabba Buddhānubhāvena / dhamānubhāvena / sanghānubhāvena sadā sotthī bhavantu te!<br />(May there be every blessing, and may all of the gods protect you, <br />by the power of all the Buddhas / dhamma / sangha may you be safe forever!)<br />Abhivādanasīlissa - niccam vuddhāpacāyino<br />cattāro dhammā vaddhanti - āyu vanno sukham balam<br />(For somebody, who is showing respect to those of virtuous character, who is always paying homage to the venerable ones, four things grow for him: life-span, beauty of complexion, happiness, strength.)<br />Āyurārogya sampatti - sagga sampatti meva ca<br />ato nibbāna sampatti - imina te samijjhatu!<br />(By the power of this the four dhammas - life, complexion, comfort and strength will be developed to the one who is constantly respectful to the to elders and worthy ones!)<br /></span><b><span style="font-size: large;">References: <br /></span></b>https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/kn/ud/ud.5.03.than.html<br />https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/kn/ud/ud.1.01.than.html<br />https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/sltp/Ud_utf8.html#pts.048<br />https://pitaka.lk/main/?n=39140<br />https://www.wikipali.org/app/studio/editor.php?op=openchannal&book=123&para=1123&channal=39005568-e54c-46e4-8668-c9935e0fdb6d<br />https://www.wikipali.org/app/studio/editor.php?op=openchannal&book=123&para=1122&channal=39005568-e54c-46e4-8668-c9935e0fdb6d<br />https://www.wikipali.org/app/search/paliword.php?key=kallacitta%E1%B9%83<br />https://www.ancient-buddhist-texts.net/Texts-and-Translations/Mahakhandhako/12-Yasas-Going-Forth.htm<br />https://www.accesstoinsight.org/ptf/dhamma/index.html<br /><p style="text-align: left;"><b>SADHU SADHU SADHU!</b></p></blockquote><p><br /></p>Dhamma USAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07261106376338704506noreply@blogger.com0
