Dear beloved Dhamma Friends,

We are happy to chant Sacca Vibhanga Sutta on the 7th of June at 7.30 pm.  I am going to have a strong wish that energy of this chanting may reach all of you and you may bear the benefit of our chanting.

May you have confidence, concentration and wisdom for internal illumination!

With much love and compassion,

Seelagawesi Thero

 
Subject: Buddhists’ approach to friendship

Sunday, 31 May 2009 17:16

The Buddha explained in detail how to determine between friends and enemies in the Singalovada Sutta. One should not judge another by outward appearance or behaviour. The Buddha advised to avoid companionship with the foolish and to associate beings who are the same or more advanced.

Friendship can be a difficult and complex topic for a young person to grasp. At times it can be difficult to know who means one well and who does not. This article aims to shed some light on this topic from a Buddhist perspective, especially for the benefit of young adults.

 
Dhammapada 361

Kaayena samvaro saadhu
Saadhu vaacahaaya samvaro
Manasaa samvaro saadhu
Saadhu sabbattha samvaro


English translation:
Good is restraint of the body. Good is restraint of speech. Good is restraint of the mind. Restraint everywhere is good.
Restraint thus represents the way to still the mind, words and actions as a prelude to freedom from suffering and anxiety.
The above stanza is taken from the Dhammapada, a work that records sayings of the Buddha through his 45 long years of ministry, and which reaches out to all humanity. The Dhammapada underscores humanity's common heritage and it helps transcend narrow sectarian values.

Wisdom Quotes

" If beings knew as I know the results of sharing gifts, they would not enjoy their use without sharing them with other, nor would the taint of stinginess obess the heart and stay there. Even if it were their last and final bit of food, they would not enjoy its use without sharing it, if there were anyone to receive it.

"

Lord Buddha
