ixoye9871, Sadhu for the generous share. Actually, since churches tend to give rise to "corruption", my person is more interested in how Jesus and his disciples, and those followed them, used to live on, meaning, did they trade or took what was given? Maranguape, Sadhu, supported means what...

Maybe useful in this regard as well

A nice and helpful story "against" Anger-Eating Demons

Mudita if Devoted One could find reminders on benifical ways. In regard of names Atma (my person) tried to post something yesterday but it did not work. So here meanwhile a story about names Namasiddhi-Jataka

Its maybe a different reason as in the OP whereas the general topic seems to be the same. Not sure why, aside of many other troubles with the forum use (error messages, not resolving links...) such again appears (attachment). Let my person know if being the only troubled so that there is no...

Since those two attributs and means of observing/practicing are common in every useful and benefical religion, yet at the same time the practices whuch are common abounded today in every religion, it might be maybe good to have sub-forums for each and its good to encourage in such rather to...

Then pardon my person for causing some anger with spelling (or better for providing soil for seeds to grow), devoted person. Who caused this anger to become? What do you think? Just in addition, since you call yourself Devoted One (which is actually everybody, mostly to ones defilements): If...

Feeding one self with foolish thought and ideas, and not able to listen and read attentive when told how to straighten ones view, strat to understand and come to peace with that, how could one not be the victim of the poisioness arrow in his heart, seeking advices for overcomming under those...

And what about a cop beating a "guilty"? Who is the judge when a form touches your eye, Bhaktayan? Who gives anger food? Who suffers from anger? What gives the cause?

Being full-moon in the month Jeṭṭha of the year 2561, Atma thought of sharing a reminding or informing sutta:

Simple: Nonsens. Better you would listen, not only to your boss.

Ven. Santidhammo wrote a small bio about Ven. Maha Ghosananda and published also a pdf of it on his page: http://www.ghosananda.org/bio_book.html A story of "accident" we once met years ago in a Monastery in Phnom Penh. He was just in Cambodia to share and intoduce his booklet and my person and...

Since you here "love" such lables as "peace" and "interfaith", my person thought of letting you getting known a kind of symbol for this words: Maha Ghosananda, a tiny Cambodian monk (of course more a wordling and not a perfect disciple of the Buddha) but he might be able to inspire some of you...

An alternative "plan": One is not really able to run away of his/her kamma (past own actions by mind, speech, body) and that is way the Buddha when asked of what should killed (to have welbeing) answered that there is only one thing that makes sense to kill: ones anger (Ghatva Sutta: Having...

Wil, a sutta that might explain real fevers: Hatthaka Sutta: To Hatthaka (excerpt) On Sleeping Well in the Cold Forest

Actually, if having less wishes and a strong fundation in faith, unshakeable, it's not at all burdensome but at ease. Less are there, very less, but actually possible for many. For now have to walk for another days food supply, giving others chances to rejoices in faith with it and making...
