Did the Buddha Get Angry?

@smlanka4u:
Avijja (nescience/asymmetry) is like Mara (the lord of death) because a daughter of Mara is Thanha, and Avijja makes Thanha (greed) too. Also, Avijja makes death, and Mara is the lord of death. The 12 links in the chain of dependent origination is the origination of life and death, and it happens during a single mind-moment (3 Khana) called Chitta-Khana. As I know, the word Mara has 5 definitions (like 5 Natures/Swarupa or Types/Aakara).

Truth of Nalanda University || ft. Manish Paul

@smlanka4u:
Kashmir separated Buddhism, and made or developed Mahayana Buddhism. Some reasons have separated Kashmir into two parts with conflicts between them. The 4th Buddhist council held in Kashmir is not reliable. Original Buddhism and Buddhist councils continued in Sri Lanka. The original 4th Buddhist council was held in Sri Lanka between 247 to 207 BCE.

Instant Relaxation: 5-Minute Guided Breathwork for Nervous System Regulation

@smlanka4u:
Breathing meditation is like an observation of feelings (Vedananupassana), and observing the feelings in the body while breathing in and out makes it a both mindfulness (Vipassana) and relaxing/tranquizing (Samatha) meditation. But the consistent state of concentration called Samadhi is like automatic concentrations on a single object. Feelings are the main objects of the breathing meditation. The mind becomes less attached to stressful feelings when it focuses and changes its attention like this: "Breathe in naturally and feel the feelings from nose to the entire body like allowing the mind to feel all the feelings at once. And then, breathe out naturally and feel the feelings at nose. Also, think that feelings are not mine." It helps the mind to take the control of feelings, and reduces painful feelings of addictions and stress. It is very helpful to develop concentration (Samadhi), and prepare the mind for a good rebirth and enlightenment.

@smlanka4u:
The north Indian prince Vijay invaded lanka, and married a Lankan lady (Kuveni) in 6th century BCE. Lankavatara Sutra mentions a Ravana who lived in Lanka during the lifetime of the Buddha. A Jataka tale mentioned Rama without Ravana and Lanka, and it is the real story of Rama the Bodhisattva. Some people have tried to change history with new and modified stories.

(Pali Canon Study Group) The Realms of Existence - Volume 11 - (Chapter 101-110) at Wat Tung Yu

@smlanka4u:
Natural nature is the truth whether we like it or not. The four noble truths help us understand the true nature of life to escape from the cycle of rebirth. If the 31 realms of existence have two separate planes of existence for animals and Humans, then some Humans live in the animal realm. Also, some Pali texts mentioned four continents of four types of Humans. Perhaps, some Humans live in Pretha and Asura realms too. But the intelligence of living beings in those realms would make them a part of the Human world. Thank you so much.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sri Lanka is one of the places that has certainly had a very significant impact on my life, directly and indirectly, despite having visited this country for the first time only today.
In fact, my first contact with Buddhism was through the Sri Lankan Buddhist temples located in Italy, in my hometown. I was lucky to meet, already at a very young age (let's say 18, 19 years old), kind, willing and generous monks in sharing their knowledge and introducing me to the Buddhist world and knowledge. In fact, I don't think I would have been lucky enough to learn about Buddhist wisdom if it weren't for them. For this reason, I have always felt connected to Sri Lanka in the same way that it reunited me with Buddhism (I use the word “reunite” because I firmly believe that in some way I was close to Buddhism in past lives).
I learned Buddhism, learned Sinhalese, learned who I really wanted to be.
In fact, I had already wanted to become a nun since those times, even if I didn't think it was possible in the near future. I thought it was too good to do to be true. Life ultimately reserved some incredible surprises for me. Then, that life moved me and directed me a little further east like Myanmar, is another story. However, the memory of how I became a Buddhist is unforgettable.
Globalization and our inevitable karma makes us so united with each other despite the distances and apparent differences that everything becomes possible in this samsara, including knowing distant people and reconnecting with past people more easily.


Echoes of Enlightenment – Bihar’s Timeless Tie to Buddha

Effort and Non Effort in Buddhist Practice

@naywin7097:
Not " ordinary effort" but " Right effort" is the key to open the door of enlightenment. The problem is effort on what and what kind of effort is " Right" . The missing link between " principal" and " practice" of Buddhism. How to combine and corelate with Four Noble Truth and Four foundations of Mindfulness is essential.

@smlanka4u:
The effort (Viriya) to gain ownership comes from views (Ditti) and sensual desires (Kamacchanda) with a pain until we remove the craving to gain ownership of something from our minds. The removal of ownerships from the mind with the help of the four noble truths is the right view.

@smlanka4u:
If the literal meaning of the word Anicca is unlovable (An+Ichcha) due to the misleading greed (Lobha/Thanha) and misleading views (Ditti) in love, then impermanence (Anithya) is only a derived/hidden meaning of the word Anicca.

@Exiide89:
Hitler's symbol was the Christian hooked cross, not Swastika. He wanted to make a pure christian state, not a sanatani state. European christian propagandists mischievously translated hooked cross from german language to Swastika so that the stigma could be passed on to Indians. Watch "The Silence of Swastika" youtube video.

Real science must explain the truth even if it is untestable.

@voltydequa845:
 @smlanka4u   «Real science must explain the truth even if it is untestable.»
----
It is not "real science", but "speculative science". The "truth" as a food for parrots. The models (representations) of reality are infinite, and are not equivalent to what they represent.

@smlanka4u:
 @voltydequa845, The truths that were discovered and verified don't change with time even if all the discoverers died.

@voltydequa845:
 @smlanka4u  «The truths that were discovered and verified don't change with time even if all the discoverers died.»
----
This one of yours does not make sense. There are no "truths", since "discovery" is not a synonym for "truth", and since "discoveries", along with "verification",  are (re)interpreted along the spirit of times. "Discoveries" do not "die". You'd better go with metaphysic truths and discoveries.

@smlanka4u:
 @voltydequa845, You can believe your interpretation of truths if you want. The great discoverers like supreme Buddha and his great disciples discovered great truths. Check your senses if you can't understand it.

@smlanka4u:
Undesirable/Impermanent (Anicca) nature makes suffering (Dukka) due to attachment/clinging. Therefore, attachments/addictions (lovely things) are meaningless (Anatta) if we don't like to suffer in any lifetime. Best wishes from Sri Lanka.

@NishantKumar-ry9rp:
​ @smlanka4u For your kind information I want to remind you that prakrit has also came from Sanskrit, so according to your logic Buddhists were also invaders .

@smlanka4u:
 @NishantKumar-ry9rp, Prakrit is based on natural sounds and fundamental meanings. Sanskrit words have added/extra sounds.

@NishantKumar-ry9rp:
​ @smlanka4u  No any language is natural, all languages are man made . Prakrit is came from Sanskrit and it is accepted by all prakrit grammarian like hemchandra etc. you don't know about linguistics. You are just claiming what neo Buddhists claim without any knowledge about linguistics.  The name " Prakrit "is so called because it has originated from Nature and the original Nature is Sanskrit. This is not said by me but by the Prakrit grammarians.

@smlanka4u:
​ @NishantKumar-ry9rp, Some sounds make negative, positive, and active feelings. The ocean makes a sound like oce or ose. And a meaning of the word Prakrit is also 'natural'. Early Indian common people used Prakrit languages, and Sanskrit was not a spoken language. Sanskrit could develop separately with the inflence of western Indians and Brahmanical knowledge. Take a time to understand the influence of political powers to understand the true origins even if you don't like it.

@Mani-my8ob:
 @smlanka4u  Kuch bhi lol sanskrit is older than prakrit

@NishantKumar-ry9rp:
​​ @smlanka4u you are not giving any scholar 's reference. You are just claiming. You are not a historian or linguist. I am also not a historian or linguist but I am telling what historians accept but you are just claiming without any reference of  scholar.

@smlanka4u:
 @Mani-my8ob , The Pali meaning of the word Sanskrutha is 'modified'. Prakrit languages existed and evolved in north and south India.

@smlanka4u:
 @NishantKumar-ry9rp, Sanskrit is like a modified format of Prakrit to write, and Sanskrit means modified. Use your brain.

@Mani-my8ob:
 @smlanka4u  Sanskrit doesn't mean modified,we have sanskrit inscriptions and Vedic elements before Ashoka how can you claim that,if you use your brain which you seems like you don't have one,then you might know the answer and yeah come to the stream to prove your claims too.

@NishantKumar-ry9rp:
​ @smlanka4u I think YouTube is deleting my comments 

@smlanka4u:
 @Mani-my8ob, The word Sanskaran means edition, refinement, improvement, etc. Some words have direct meanings and indirect meanings. You said that I don't have a brain, but I can understand you and the restrictions of this platform. But you don't like to accept the direct meaning of the word Sanskrit.

Prakrit Vs Sanskrit: Which Came First?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96ZNlYTHVvY

@niladripramanik8362:
I remembered in our history books it was written prakrit came before sanskrit... Thanks for enlightening

  @smlanka4u:
  Sanskrit means modified, and its words contain additional sounds. Prakrit was basic languages.

@Aryan-gs6ky:
I know about Magadhi Prakrit which gave languages like Bhojpuri, Maithali, Magahi, Bengali, Odia and Assamese.

@thedoge7817:
This man is blatantly misguiding and lying about simple things. There were a bunch of dialects in north India that were called Prakrit (Prakrit means 'Natural') collectively which evolved into various directions giving birth to modern north Indian languages. The word Sanskrit itself means constructed/refined*. For the religious purpose and maybe for other reasons too scholars artificially constructed/did 'sanskar' a language named *Sanskrit

  @smlanka4u:
  The true meaning of the word Yoga is also not the popular physical postures called Hindu Yoga. The Pali meaning of the word Yoga is usage, practice meditation, involving, meditational effort, etc.

@RAJ-RAJKUMAR:
Sanskrit is so old, then why did not a single word of Sanskrit appear in Ashoka's inscriptions?

  @NitinTomarKaraoke:
  That's a correct observation, this YouTuber is spewing unresearched halftruths with confidence.

Day 4 Sutta Session 2 Ajahn Brahmali Sutta Retreat 2024 (SN 22.102, SN 22.95): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sg2ig37fxCg

@smlanka4u:
Intention is not a choice. Chanda is choice, and it is only a part of Sankara. Some Sanskaras are previous actions. The volitional/intentional formations called Sanskara make many mental factors, including a like called Chanda/choice, but the meaning of the word Sanskara is not a choice (a like). The people who translate the Pali words would need to study the process of mental factors and other truths mentioned in Abhi(higher/extra)dhamma Pitaka and commentaries to translate them correctly. An intention (Chethana) is like a decision or a destination.
