Pure and Harmless

April 19, 2013

Whoever does wrong to an innocent person 
or to one who is pure and harmless, 
the wrong returns to that fool 
just like fine dust thrown against the wind.

    I agree with Buddha totally but there must be someone who does many wrongs to many people who manage to duck out of the way when it comes back to hit them and it then hits me and other innocent people…this could quite quickly turn into a game of karma-tennis couldn't it ? ( just a thought ) Brightest Blessings xx

    In Buddhism we believe in afterlife. One may be able to get a way from the court system, but cannot escape hell. All depends on how soon the seed of karma produce the results +Tina Gray if this ever makes sense to you.

    +Jendhamuni Sos It makes perfect sense to me Jendhamuni as do all of your postings do for me. I have a tendency to " think outside the box " at times and reply as if I am  " outside the box " as I did when writing this comment. I suppose I am not making any sense to you either as it is not always possible for everyone to totally get  us unless they also get us!! Love & Light x

    +Tina Gray Seems like you are on a right track, Tina. It takes a compassionate heart to become a pure buddhist. Otherwise, it's only knowledge, not wisdom. I'm sure you will do well. There are plenty of info on Buddhism for beginners.

    The law of karma is very important in Buddhism. If you don't believe in this, we will not live our lives peacefully at all. When someone did something bad to me or hurt me, I never hurt them back, because I believe in the law of karma. I want to end that bad karma with the person who hurt me immediately, so I would not react to their unskillful actions. Instead, I would forgive them and move on +Tina Gray My master trained me the law of karma for many months when I studied buddhism, until I fully understand and put it into practice.

    Wow. About time that someone understands the ways of life for what it really is. I see it and I know it and therefore I understand it. From where I come from it's also call common respect and love for one another.

    I believe in karma all the way Jendhamuni, I hold great respect for the laws of karma and live a karmic life as much as possible as do you and many others here. I have not had any training from a master because the opportunity for me to train has never presented itself to me but something which I would accept gratefully if it is ever within my reach x

    +Tina Gray I have a very thin book called "Buddhism for Beginners" I don't mine typing them for you. Just give me a little time so I can type them up. To me understanding the law of karma is the most important before moving on to the next lesson. If you understand this topic deeply, it will be very easy to move on to the next lesson. We can always go slow, no rush to move on. Wisdom takes a lot of time, not like knowledge. Anybody can learn buddhism, but put the study into practice, is very hard for many. So far, I have only met several Buddhists with great quality. Haven't really met one who is as close as the two masters I have yet so far.

    Thank you +Ghazi Riman I know that. 
    We have a good group of friends here on g+ who are very kind and respectful. Quality is what we need. I'm not interested in quantity. Like +Charles van Dijk for instance, he would never slap me, even if I yell at him :)))) As for +Michael Howell he will never throw eggs at me even if I scream at him :))))

    +Jendhamuni Sos I have several books on Buddhism but none have actual teachings in them as they all seem to be written for people outside Buddhism so they understand the Buddhist theory but how to put theory & method & principle together and live them the books cannot teach.  So yes please I would like nothing more than to begin my Journey to Buddhism xx

    Karma, +Jendhamuni Sos, therefore we must 'treat others as we desire to be treated.'  The 'Golden Rule.'  Thank you for sharing great words of 'wisdom.'  Godspeed

My Reflection

This site is a tribute to Buddhism. Buddhism has given me a tremendous inspiration to be who and where I am today. Although I came to America at a very young age, however, I never once forget who I am and where I came from. One thing I know for sure is I was born as a Buddhist, live as a Buddhist and will leave this earth as a Buddhist. I do not believe in superstition. I only believe in karma.

A Handful of Leaves

Tipitaka: The pali canon (Readings in Theravada Buddhism). A vast body of literature in English translation the texts add up to several thousand printed pages. Most -- but not all -- of the Canon has already been published in English over the years. Although only a small fraction of these texts are available here at Access to Insight, this collection can nonetheless be a very good place to start.
