The purpose of publishing this book is to show at least one pious person how to see the Buddha. Therefore, we do not expect any support or funding from anyone for this. Earning money by selling the Buddha’s teachings through advertisements or other means may cause powerful evil repercussions that will lead to the four hells, just like disrespecting the Buddha. Therefore, no one should make money from any of the dhamma facts published in this book.
Gautama Thathagatha has clearly pointed out the path to Nirwana very neatly, step-by-step, in the Maha Satipattana Sutra that should be followed by a disciple who hopes to take refuge in the Buddha.
It is more valuable than all of the most precious things in the Naga, divine, and human worlds combined.
For that, refer to the Sathipattahna Meditation book that I have compiled.
It is an absolute truth that Someone who gains that understanding will be able to see the Buddha and the Dhamma.
So, if one sees the Buddha, if one sees the Dhamma,
o That enables him to cultivate ‘Buddhanussathi’ meditation properly.
o That enables him to cultivate ‘Loving Kindness’ meditation properly.
o That enables him to cultivate the ‘Dvathanussathi’ meditation called, ‘Udaya-Vaya’ (Arises- Ceases).
o It enables him to identify his faults.
o It enables him to recognise his ignorance.
o It enables him to recognise who he is.
o He does not persecute any visible or invisible creature because of his immense respect for the Buddha and his shame for sin.
o He never uses Buddha’s name for his own worldly benefit because of his immense respect for Buddha and his shame of sin.
o He will never set a price for Buddha’s Dhamma or use that Dhamma to make money by selling it, or use the Dhamma for worldly gain, because of his immense respect for Buddha and his shame for sin.
o In order for you to know about the Dhamma’s preciousness, at least you should practice ‘Kayanupassana’ correctly and understand the true nature of your body wisely.
“Bahumpi Che Sahithang Bha~sama~no
If someone learns a lot about the Dhamma but does not act accordingly and instead shares only their knowledge with others without any awareness,
Na Thakkaro Hothi Naro Pamaththo
Gopo’va Ga~vo Ganayang Paresang
Na Bha~gawa~ Sa~maknknassa Hothi.
Appampi Che Sahithang Bha~sama~no
Dhammassa Hothi Anudhammacha~ri
Ra~gakncha Dosakncha Paha~ya Mohang
Sampappaja~no Suvimuththachiththo
Anupa~diya~no Idha Wa~ Hurang Wa~
Sa Bha~gawa~ Sa~maknknassa Hothi”
they are wasting the precious human life they have obtained.
In this rare human life, they will not be able to reap the benefits of following the path, such as attaining ‘Sowan’ (The first step of the fruit path).
In fact, they will be ruining their precious opportunity as human beings.
One who understands even at least a tiny part of Dhamma correctly and wisely and practices according to that Dhamma renounces attachments to
his body or mind as ‘I-my-my-soul’.
If one cleanses his mind by removing ‘Greed – Hatred – Delusion’,
he will not mourn in this world or the hereafter.
He becomes an element of the fruit path (‘Nirwana’).
