When you have abandoned it, that will lead to your welfare and happiness." -The Buddha Lama Dawa's Commentary: Here the Buddha is addressing his assembly of monks and nuns. He calls them Bhikkhus. Bhikkhus and Bhikkhunis are monks and nuns, but this applies to all followers of the spiritual journey. He is saying here to us that the grievances that we hold, the attachments that we hold, the concerns that we hold are not ours. They are separate from us, they are things that we carry, but they are not us ourselves. Therefore, he is showing us that if something is not yours, you can put it down, you can let it go, you can place it aside, and, as he says here very clearly, that will bring you more peace, more happiness, and a sense of relief. How wonderful. How wonderful to be able to give ourselves permission in this way, to let go of things that do not serve us any longer. What a wonderful affirmation. #Buddha #Buddhism #Dharma #Metta #LovingKindness #Mindfulness #Meditation #BuddhistWisdom #Spirituality #InnerPeace #Compassion #Karma #Zen #Theravada #TibetanBuddhism #BuddhaQuotes #BuddhaTeachings #Enlightenment #Wisdom #SelfGrowth #DailyWisdom #Mindset #Healing #PositiveVibes #Gratitude #DalaiLama #Bodhisattva #SelfLove #Philosophy #SpiritualGrowth #Peace #Awareness #Consciousness #LifeLessons #SacredTexts #SelfAwareness #EnergyHealing #LawOfKarma #MindfulLiving #SacredWisdom #EasternPhilosophy #LifePurpose #UniversalLove #BuddhistLifestyle #BuddhistDaily #BuddhistTemple #Yoga #Presence #HigherConsciousness #NonAttachment #Sangha #MettaSutta #UnconditionalLove
