A Broken Heart And Depression Aid Group May All Beings Be Well & Happy!http://Dhammapada.Buddhistnetwork.comVerse 183. Not to do evil, to cultivate merit, to purify one's (NOT BY OTHERS) mind—this is the Teaching of the Buddhas.Buddhism is not based on blind faith or superstition. It is based on reality. This is known as the four noble truths. When one's mind is full of superstitious ideas, such a one cannot understand the Buddha's teaching. Most Buddhists who live in the West as well as in the East, do not get an opportunity to read the Tipitaka (Pali Canon). They do not listen to the Dhamma either. Hence they are unable to live up to the Dhamma. This will result in their not understanding the doctrine. They waste their precious time thinking of the past and the future. When they live in this manner they do not know that such thoughts are harmful to both themselves and to others. The Supreme Buddha advised them, "Do not repent over the past: Do not think of the future: but do your duties with diligence by doing what you have to do at present."there is one person whose birth into the world is for the welfare of many folk, for the happiness of many folk : who is born out of compassion for the world, for the profit, welfare of devas and mankind. Who is that one person? It is a Tathagatha who is Arahant, a fully Enlightened One. This, is that one person.Most Recent Messages (View All)(Group by Topic) Search: Advanced Start Topic Like MySpace & YouTube - Join This Hot FREE Site TODAY, 12/5/2008, 1Reminder from: abrokenheartclub Yahoo!
