Venerable Bhaddanta Naininda - Dhamma Gifts for Everyone 2

Introduction

The reason why Dharma Gifts for Everyone are printed separately as No. (1), No. (2), etc.

The more suffering there is in society , in human life, in the human world, the more people do not have time to read. If the book is thick, it is likely to be tiring to read it. Therefore, points (1) and (2) have to be distinguished.

There are only those who think that religious literature is not related to economics and prosperity. In fact, if you examine it closely, it has many connections.

The Buddha said in the Sutta Pathaya Pali, Singalavada Sutta, that since becoming a human being, each person has his own duties and obligations.

Parental duties (responsibilities), filial duties (responsibilities), teacher duties (responsibilities), student duties (responsibilities), etc. are found in this sutta. Just as morality and culture are based on religion, progress and prosperity are also based on religion.

In this era, when books are not valued, it is certain that one does not have the knowledge that books can provide. If one has little religious study, one should be considered in the same way. How can I say, I do not want to give a book as a gift for a thousand dollars? I do not know how to value it. If one person likes something, then if there are a thousand people, there will be a thousand likes.

All things have value. If the person who uses them doesn't value them, they don't have value. If they don't use them, they don't have value. Whose fault is this? Whose fault is it? Just as all things have value, so do the people who use them.

For example, it means that if a locket is not kept or maintained, it will be damaged. The idea of ​​being easily damaged if the person who uses it does not use it can be found everywhere in modern times.

If we look at the teaching, "Sabbadana, Dhammadana, Zinati," it says that among all kinds of gifts, the gift of the Dhamma is the most noble. We should understand that by acquiring the most noble Dhamma, we become the most noble person.

| Reading and studying books is inexpensive and can bring many benefits both in the present and the future. There is no one in the world who is not stingy or stingy. It means the opposite of a bag.

Therefore, I encourage everyone to take the time to read, study, and memorize books, hoping for the benefit of all.

The Buddha, the great sage

Good to know about the mind

Arammani sentatiti cittam, vijanatiti a. As explained by the Hukas and Atthakathas, it is called mind because it is capable of thinking. Thinking means the nature of awareness.

In other words, it is like a person who is running around. He is always in constant motion. His mind is always in constant motion.

There are concepts of good and bad that are common. Only those who have studied the Abhidhamma can possess and understand these concepts.

According to literature, the Abhidhamma Mathasingha contains descriptions of wholesome and unwholesome qualities in the Satthi section, and therefore they are Satthi teachings.

What is a satyagraha?

Seta-sih bhava seta-sih ka, seta-sih-in the mind. bhava-things that arise. Seta-sih, things that arise in the mind, (va) seta-sih.

It is a feeling of being dependent on the mind and experiencing the taste of good and bad sensations. But what people in the world know is the mind.

The mind is the mind, manipulating and creating things into good and bad, and the secret behind it is only revealed to those who don't know.

Let's look at the mysterious picture of the mind.

Today is the age of science, and where does science and technology come from? If you look closely, it comes from the mind of a person.

Where do today's strange and unusual clothing items come from? When you examine them, they come from a person's mind. You will see strange and unusual paintings. The mind is more strange than the paintings.

When the author was young, he didn't really understand the meaning of the phrase "the infinite being" in the text. He didn't have a clear understanding of the concept. After watching Discovery, he began to understand the phrase "the infinite being".

The meaning is that beings are countless and mysterious. Who created this mystery? It is the mind that created all kinds of beings, and created them to be mysterious and mysterious. It should be remembered that all the mysteries of the world are created by the mind of a person.

Buddhists don't know what they should know. If you study Buddhism, you will see that it is a philosophy of transforming the mind, in other words, to bring the mind to its desired state, to achieve

The ideology of maintaining success. Nowadays, we are in the era of body modification, showmanship, and modeling. Compared to Buddhism and Buddhist ideas, it has already reversed.

The author would like to warn you that Buddhism is a philosophy that builds peace of mind, but what people are doing these days is a philosophy that is annoying. There are many people who are disrespecting Buddhism and Buddha, and as long as they are disrespectful, they will continue to be disrespectful.

Grief means suffering and physical exhaustion. If you examine the nature of the mind, you will find that those who do not know the nature of the mind and do not understand it are tormented by their own minds, causing suffering and anxiety.

We see them working, talking, and planning.

We are working to make the wrong seem right and the right seem wrong, to make the real seem non-existent and the non-existent seem real.

The mind is a real thing in literature, but it is not something that can be seen or touched. It is not something that is named after a person or an object.

Are you testing my mind? If you dare, touch me. These words are made to seem real. If you really look for me, I am real. I use words that are easy to understand, which is quite difficult for ordinary people. What do you do? I think that what I do, what I say, what I think is right.

"Puthu kilese janetitti puthujjano," the Atthakatha teachers expounded.

Puthu, many. Defilements, defilements. It causes. It, therefore. Puthujjano, puthujin. Because it causes many defilements (displeasures), it is called puthujin.

The mind is the source of happiness, the mind is the source of happiness.

Dhammapada-18 Sududdhasam, which arises very hardly to be seen. Sunipunam, which arises very subtly. Yatthakamanipatinam, which does not consider one's own rank, high or low, and

Habitual in attention. Mind, mind. Knowledge, wisdom. Rekha, to be guarded. Gutta, guarded and protected. Mind, mind. Sukhavaham, bringing happiness.

The mind is a difficult object to see, a very delicate object, a mind that has the tendency to want everything it sees if it is good, to want everything it is beautiful . It is wise to guard it, to be patient, to be able to guard it, to be patient, and to be able to bring you happiness.

If I were to quote an excerpt, the author would like to quote only the Medhawi verse.

Why? Only wise people can control their minds. If they are not wise and intelligent, then they will be like the messenger of the mind, who is in the body of fire, who is being commanded and commanded without knowing it.

| Yes. Readers should find the answer themselves. | If the answer is consistent with Buddhist literature, then it is true.

If it doesn't match, it might be wrong. This is the will of the divine nature, and it cannot be fixed with the will of the worldly nature.

Some people get bored just by looking at Buddhist literature. I see that they become depressed just by reading Buddhist literature. This is also possible, it would be like someone who does not like alcohol drinking alcohol.

When we are young, our worldly perceptions and experiences are all illusions, but as we grow older, we no longer see anything as true. We live in a world of negativity. It is the mind that thinks worldly perceptions are true, and it is the mind that thinks worldly experiences are true.

The mind is like a lotus, the Dhamma is like a lotus.

Manao, mind. In the wrong, in the wrong. Ramati, delight. (or) pleasure.

It means that the mind is in a bad place and enjoys doing bad things.
