How Mindfulness Creates Understanding!
Friendship is the Greatest!
Bhikkhu Samāhita _/\_ ]
http://What-Buddha-Said.net
The Supreme Goal Ahead:
The Blessed Buddha Gotama once said:
The purpose of morality is control of behaviour.
The purpose of controlled behaviour is absence of regrets.
The purpose of absence of regrets is joy.
The purpose of joy is satisfaction.
The purpose of satisfaction is calm.
The purpose of calm is happiness.
The purpose of happiness is concentration.
The purpose of concentration is understanding.
The purpose of understanding is disillusion.
The purpose of disillusion is detachment.
The purpose of detachment is mental release.
The purpose of mental release is Nibbāna,
Final Freedom without any remnants of clinging...

Infinite Friendliness Outshines All!
The Blessed Buddha said:
May all creatures, all breathing things,
all beings one and all, without exception,
experience good fortune only.
May they not fall into any harm.
Anguttara Nikāya II, 72

Gratitude appreciates all assistance!
The Buddha indeed pointed out Gratitude as an important mental quality:
These two people are hard to find in the world. Which two?
The one who is first to do a kindness, and
The one who is grateful and thankful for any kindness done.
Anguttara Nikāya 2.118
I tell you, monks, there are two people
who are not easy to repay:
Which two? Your mother and father. Even if you were to carry your mother
on one shoulder & your father on the other shoulder for 100 years, & were
to look after them by anointing, massaging, bathing, & rubbing their limbs,
and they were to defecate and urinate right there on your shoulders, you
would not thereby repay your parents. Even if you were to establish your
mother & father in absolute sovereignty over this great earth, abounding in
the seven treasures, you would not in that way repay your parents!
Why is that? Mothers and fathers do much for their children. They care for
them, they nourish them for long, and they introduce them to this world.
But anyone who rouses his unbelieving mother & father, settles & establishes
them in faith; rouses his immoral mother & father, establishes them in virtue;
rouses his stingy mother & father, settles & establishes them in generosity;
rouses his unwise mother & father, settles & establishes them on a new level
of understanding: It is in this way that one truly repays one's mother's and
father's many and longstanding services and sacrifices.
Anguttara Nikāya 2.32

Anguttara Nikāya 2.32
Parents, compassionate to their family, are called
Brahma, first teachers,
those worthy of gifts from their children. So the wise should show respect,
honour them with food and drink, clothing & bedding, and anointing, bathing,
washing their feet. Performing these services to their parents, the wise are
praised right here and after death rejoice in heaven. Itivuttaka 106

If this is what you think of me:
The Blessed One, is sympathetic, is seeking our well-being, teaches us this
Dhamma out of sympathy, then you should train yourself in being in harmony,
cordial, and without conflict and train in yourselves cultivation of all the 37
fine mental qualities: The 4_Foundations_of_Awareness, the 4 right efforts,
the 4_Feet_of_Force, the 5 Abilities, 5 powers, the 7 Links to Awakening,
& the Noble_8-Fold_Way. Majjhima Nikāya 103

A Tathagata is worshipped, honoured, respected,
thanked & shown gratitude
by any follower, who keeps practicing the Dhamma in accordance with true
Dhamma, who keeps practicing masterfully, who lives in and by the Dhamma!
Digha Nikāya 16

Digha Nikāya 16
We will undertake & practice those qualities that
makes one a contemplative,
so that all those who helped us by services of robes, alms-food, lodging, and
medicines will bring them great fruit and great future reward.
Majjhima Nikāya 39

Majjhima Nikāya 39
Comments:
In Pali, the word for gratitude = kataññu literally means to have a sense of
what was done for one in the past, even when long ago. Remembering all help!
A network of kindness and gratitude is what sustains whatever goodness
there is, and ever will be in this - otherwise destitute & impoverished - world!
Thus: Thank you for reading this!

HELP NEEDED
Dear Dhamma Friends & Supporters:
Unfortunately have I again contracted a parasite infection called Schistosomiasis
(also known as liver-fluke, bilharzia, bilharziosis or snail fever)! from the infected wild
pigs living here in this jungle, who excrement in the mountain stream water supply here…
Some medicine is therefore needed, which is not available here on Sri Lanka. (See below)
If any of you kind Dhamma-friends could get the medicine from your hospital or doctor
or pharmacy/pharmacist or health-care-provider and send it here, it would be VERY fine.
Since the parasite eggs can spread to the brain and spinal cord, which effectively would
disable me completely, then the medicine is somewhat urgently needed!
NEEDED MEDICINE:
A:
Tablets PRAZIQUANTEL 600mg: 36 tablets (for treatment)
(brands: Distoside, Biltricide, Cesol, Cysticide, Zentozide)
and
B: Tablets ARTEMETHER 40, 50 or 100 mg: 300 tablets
(for 1 years prevention)
