CALM DOWN AND FIND THE WAY.
Let me put it in another way. What way?
The way to escape or the way to face and solve our problems? The right
way or the wrong way?
We are not talking about the negative here. So we are looking for the
right way, for sure. We are here to get rid of theses negative states
of mind, which is hindering our progress and our development.
Let’s say we are confused, everybody, because for everybody,
everything become complicated, day by day. That is because our
problems are piling up. We don’t finished our daily jobs, we can not
stop next one coming in. We carried on today’s problems to the next
day, and the next day problem adds up to the next day. Our problems
are more than our numbers.
To find a way is to calm ourselves down. How to calm ourselves down
to find the way.
We have been advised by the wise people, we have been advised by our
elders, but we don’t calm ourselves down , we have not find the way .
We are stuck.
That may be because we are not listening to the advise of the wise
people, we may not be listening to the advise of our elders. The wise
and the elders cannot be that wrong.
Let us see what the wise and elders said to us, lets us refresh
ourselves.
Sit down in comfortable posture, sit straight, not leaning against
anything or anybody, chest out , breath normally and think.
First thing to remember is we have to be mindful of how we react to
people, to different situations and how other react to us. Our effects
on others and others effects upon us.
What is wholesome or negative in our mind. We should try to undermine
and root out , we should act upon it, we should guard against allowing
any new un wholesome or negative habits to develop. We should
encourage ourselves to develop new habit that are beneficial to us and
to others.
We slowly/ gradually recondition our minds, away from the negative to
positive , from un wholesome to wholesome from darkness to light.
Free ourselves from anger and hatred. Free ourselves from greed and
selfishness. Free ourselves from fear and anxiety. Free ourselves from
pain and suffering. Free ourselves from ignorance and delusion. Free
ourselves from all negative states of mind.
Be happy and peaceful, liberate ourselves from bondages, live in peace
and harmony with all beings.
These may be theories , but put them into practice. You can elaborate
anyway you like, you can translate or interpret anyway you like,
though I don’t thing any other translation or interpretation are
needed. They are as clear as they are as crystal. They cn confused
nobody, they are not complicated. Everybody can understand these
simples things, they are not difficult, let alone impossible to
follow.
So, please don’t try these simple things difficult or difficult things
impossible for your self.
Its simply the path of mental purification, useful to each and every
human beings.
We look at what comes into our attention, we are not looking for
something. Just develop , watchfulness, awareness. We allow them to
be themselves. Just by observing and watching these states of minds
lose energy , fade away and over a period of time die out altogether.
We have purified our mind . With concentration and awareness intuitive
wisdom arises and begin to see reality, ever changing nature. Being
aware of them not by trying to escape from them , but to accepting
them as they really are.
These are the words of wise people and our elders.
May all beings be free happy peaceful and prosper.
