De la buddisti citire
Prefacerea împrejurarilor neplacute în drum de viata este asociata cu exercitiile de rabdare. Sase precepte sunt de urmat:
- Fa din orice necaz un punct de plecare
- Orice se petrece, nu da vina pe altii
- Arata-te recunoscator (ceea ce sfatuieste si Sf Pavel, în toate circumstantele, adu multumiri)
- Priveste ca pe un învatator (Buddha) tot ce te tulbura, si practica „golirea” (de sine)
- Fa ce e bine, evita ce e rau, apreciaza cât esti de nebun, cere ajutor
- Tot ce întâlnesti este parte din drum.
Transforming bad circumstances into the path is associated with the practice of patience. There are six mind-training (lojong) slogans connected with this:
- Turn all mishaps into the path.
- Drive all blames into one. What it is saying is: whatever happens, don’t ever blame anyone or anything else; always blame only yourself.
- Be grateful to everyone.
- See confusion as buddha and practice emptiness.
- Do good, avoid evil, appreciate your lunacy, pray for help.
- Whatever you meet is the path.
