"The cause of suffering is greed, selfishness and stupidity. If people get rid of these negative emotions, they will be happy." Shakyamuni Buddha |

"The cause of suffering is greed, selfishness and stupidity. If people get rid of these negative emotions, they will be happy." During a full-moon night in May, Siddhartha went into deep meditation. As the morning star appeared in the eastern sky, he became an enlightened one, a Buddha. He was thirty five years old. When the Buddha stood up at last, he gazed at the tree in gratitude, to thank it for having given him shelter. From then on, the tree was known as the Bodhi tree, the tree of Enlightenment.

Siddhartha became an enlightened one (a Buddha) under the Bodhi tree |
"The Change of View" It is tiresome to constantly view headlines promoting topics bordered on sex, corruption and murder. The responsibility for crafting views that shape our thought process as a society is ours. The constant emphasis on immoral and debasing subjects will only succeed in eroding our collective values. The rulers of the western world meticulously devise and craft the direction of all news and information fed into the media to propagate their various agendas to the nearer and wider unsuspecting public. If you expend all your energy on sex, you will breathe, eat and sleep solely for sexual gratification. This analogy rings true for every immoral indulgence. Growth is paramount and development is desirable. We are here to grow and conquer, to effect change we need to become the change we want to view. Cheers |
