Learning The Truth

If we have no satisfactory teacher, then we should take the teachings of Buddha (i.e. Dhamma) and practice it in our life. Buddha’s teaching, when rightly understood and followed, will bring welfare and happiness for a long time. There are numerous teachings of Buddha on each and every aspects of life. Buddhas teaching was based on his own observation of the way things are really are. His teachings (Dhamma) can be checked and verified by any person irrespective of any caste, religion, man or women, any time, any place. Buddhas teaching are very noble and their practice will leads todays world to peace and harmony.

Some of them are
Mangala Sutta -- Great Discourse on Blessings (A guide for life's journey)
Sigalovada Sutta --- Code of discipline for a common man.
Kalama Sutta --- Encouragement of free inquiry
Karaniya Metta Sutta ---Loving Kindness Discourse

We will be discussing these 4 suttas in the coming days one by one. The main aim will be comparing these suttas with the current situation of todays world. Each suttas will be disscussed for 15 to 30 days in details. Everyone from all over are invited to participate, they can post comments or write article based on the current topics.

What is the Purpose of Life?

"The Human Being is the highest fruit on the tree of evolution. It is for the individual to realise his or her position in existence and understand the true meaning of his life. The purpose of life is to achieve the end of suffering or unsatisfactoriness."

To  know the purpose of life, you will first have to observe it through your experience and insight. Then, you will discover for yourself its true meaning. Guidelines can be given, but you must create the necessary conditions for the arising of realization yourself.

    There are several prerequisites to the discovery of the purpose of life. First, you must understand the nature of human life. Next, you keep your mind calm and peaceful by adopting religious practices. When these conditions are met, the answer you seek will come like the gentle rain from the sky.
