If Your Mind Is Scattered, It Is

I Totally Disagree With The View That The Tibet Struggle Will Die, And There Will Be No Hope For Tibet, After The Dalai Lama Passes Away.

The Simple Recognition That Everyone Else Wants To Be Happy And Not To Suffer, Just As I Do, Serves As A Constant Reminder Against Selfishness And Partiality. It Reminds Us There Is Little To Be Gained From Being Kind And Generous While Hoping To Win Something In Return. Actions Motivated By A Desire To Earn A Good Name For Ourselves Are Still Selfish, Even If They Appear To Be Acts Of Kindness.

The Process Of Dying Begins With The Dissolution Of The Elements Within The Body. It Has Eight Stages, Beginning With The Dissolution Of The Earth Element, Then The Water, Fire And Windelements. The Color: Appearance Of A White Vision, Increase Of The Red Element, Black Near-attainment, And Finally The Clear Light Of Death.

I Met An American Lady Many Years Ago, Much Distant. Then I Told Her About My Own Difficult Experiences And I Showed Some Genuine Concern. She Responded, "why Are You So Concerned About Me?" We Need More Patience. At A Fundamental Level, We Are The Same Human Brothers And Sisters. Then Forget It. The Human Mind Is Very Strange. Like That.

An Affectionate Disposition Not Only Makes The Mind More Peaceful And Calm, But It Affects Our Body In A Positive Way Too. On The Other Hand, Hatred, Jealousy And Fear Upset Our Peace Of Mind, Make Us Agitated And Affect Our Body Adversely. Even Our Body Needs Peace Of Mind And Is Not Suited To Agitation. This Shows That An Appreciation For Peace Of Mind Is In Our Blood.
