Dhamma Info (11)


For Beautiful Life
 
The world of living beings is constituted on both mind and materiality. One of the Buddha's message is "Manopubbangama Dhamma" which means mind is forerunner, mind makes human life, mind is master of man, mind mould the human life, human beings are architects of their own lives, so, in order to create the beautiful life, we should mould our mind to be beautiful.
 
Nowadays, the world of mankind is full of chaos, full of evils, full of battles, full of crimes, full of sorrow and sufferings. These unpleasant situations, miserable events are generated by evil mind. In many Buddha's messages mention that the starting point of these miserable events is selfishness thought of egocentric world.

Beginning of competition and conflict is the thought of jealously or unhappy of other's progress and success.

Therefore, the Buddha emphatically stated that you should convert from selfishness to selflessness, from jealousy to joy, from evil to noble.
