The Buddhist ethical criteria of wholesome and unwholesome.


An ethical system is connecting with the behavior as right and wrong good and bad. The behavior in human society mostly is leading to immoral way because human’s mind is delight in the evil action. To knowing it, the Buddhist ethical system contains an explanation of good and bad behavior for living in the moral way. There are three basic factors in Buddhist ethical system namely (1) Free will. (2) Rebirth. (3) Moral Causation.
Regarding to the factors of Buddhist ethical system, one has chance to analysis and emphasize. Buddhist ethical system is a requirement for the attainment of Nibbana by spiritual morality. To get this spiritual morality, one must be self welfare first and then help other. There are four kinds of person in Buddhist ethical system. (1) Person who does not act with self welfare. (2) Person who engages in altruism action but not self welfare. (3) The person who engages in self welfare but not altruism. (4) Person who engages in actions of both self welfare and altruism. Buddhism accept that the person who acts in both altruism and self welfare choose the best.
For the sake of both altruism and self welfare, in the Anumana Sutta it is mentioned that there are two ways of inference. (1)  Inference about one self by means of other and (2) inference of other by means of one self. Of them, the first is said that “If a person engages in wrong doing such a person is unpleasant to me and I am also evil. In the power if evil thoughts I become unpleasant to other person and they also dislike me”. The second is said that “I like to live a long time and I like to enjoyable life but I dislike suffering. If I deprive a life if another who likes to live long without dying and suffering, it is disagreeable to such person”.
In Ambalatthika Rahulavada Sutta of M.N, then it is mentioned a principle to decide wholesome and unwholesome action. According to that Sutta, one should reflect when one thinks of committing action with the body, word and mind. Again when one has committed an action one has to reflect on action of doing. If one see it is harmful to oneself and other, one should considered it as unwholesome and should not do. If action appears as good for both, one should do it. It is the best way to follower the factors in the Buddhist ethical criteria of wholesome and unwholesome actions.

What is the distinction between Kusala and Puñña

     In the mind, producing of good action are kusala( wholesome) and Puñña (merit). According to the philosophies and societies of critics Kusala and Puñña would be different condition. Kusala and Puñña are usually translated as meritorious action. The term Puñña has been regally used in the pali scriptural tradition to denote that which benefits the person who is intent on bettering his future state of existence without renouncing the pleasure of household life. The significance of the terms Puñña cannot be understood except in the context of the Buddhist doctrines of Kusala and Saṃsarā.
     Acts of Puñña in Buddhism are looked upon as those deeds which have the tendency to promote a person's happiness in the future life. Puñña helps a person to be reborn in a pleasant form of existence (sugati), whereas Pāpa leads to regression in the Saṃsaric cycle. It is believed that those who have an abundance of Pañña reborn in heavenly spheres of existence, while those who have an abundance of pāpa are reborn in woeful states of existence. The terms kusala and akusala in the pali canonical scriptures shows that there is a noteworthy difference in their definition when compared with that of the terns puñña and pāpa.
The terms kusala appears to have been used more frequently in the evolution if action leading to the higher spiritual goal of Buddhism. The anguttara nikāya which uses evaluative language in characterizing the specific modes of behavior and condition of mind which conduce to the attainment of the ultimate goal of Buddhism, omits the term Puñña but including the term kusala. A person endowed with ten qualities is called one who is endowed with kusala. The Buddha assert that the practices that are kusala gradually lead a person to the highest state, meaning the attainment of Nibbhana.
     Nibbhana, the highest spiritual attainment of Buddhism is the condition in which greed, malice and ignorance are described as akusala while the absence of them is described as kusala, akusala, unlike Puñña is no to be discarded but to be cultivated. The Buddha is said to have reflected on the face that he himself abandoned the numerous evil and unwholesome qualities and attained reflection in the numerous kusala qualities. The Buddha was venerated for possessing morally good qualities. In the context of answering certain question asked by kind Pasenadi of Kosaka, Ananda, one of the chief disciples of the Buddha, says that the Buddha is one who has discarded all sates that are akusala and possessed of states which are kusala.
     Kusala on the other hand emphasized the non-sensuous spiritual bliss, which results from if. Kusala culminates in the eradication of the defilement lobha, dosa and moha. The term that was invariable used in specifying the god action which lead to the spiritual bliss of Nibbana, whereas the term more frequently used for specifying the good action which lead to sensuous enjoyment and happiness in Saṃsarā was Puñña.

Just open mouth.


I am just open my mouth when I arrived in oversea. Being analysis by mind, there is automatically come out wrong thing and right thing. Firstly, I have already stayed with a story. Where is. After appreciated my mind, I got five things. What are they? A person who have a lot of character is created a mind or leading to the unmoral way. However, I will show off five characters how to approach our mind. Please just see our back. When we backward our steps, we call our homeland as the golden land, golden place and golden Myanmar. That is. I think that the name of golden, removing other place, we will see different characters. Change and change our position. At the moment, I just open the door of golden name. There are as follow;
1. Golden Myanmar
2. Hello Myanmar
3. Water Myanmar
4. Moderns (new era) Myanmar
5. Hot air Myanmar.
It is my thought. I don’t want to say you it will be OK. It is just open my mouth. OK!!! Let’s we going on.  
Golden Myanmar means, wherever he lived in foreign, his moral is the same Myanmar. We accept that our nationality is happy-good lucky. Making generosity, abstain from five precepts, satisfy his salary, he send money their parents. He can alive honestly even foreign. It is called him golden Myanmar. It is the same Myanmar his mind. That is why, I appreciated him.
Hello Myanmar means, he is always betting his salary. He is never even enough his salary. He spends his value time at beta home. He is better. On the other hand, a person who beta is talked without can’t do his job. His mind is the more he wants the money want. His money is easy go easy come. He never thinks correctly. If he takes money in his life, he can do unwholesome (evil) everything. He accept that money make everything. It is better idea.
Water Myanmar means, when he comes back his job, he is already bring beer or alcohol. As we know, when drink can’t decide right way, it is result. And then his environment disappoints his habit. When somebody drinks beer or alcohol, we also dislike his manner. Nowadays, the alcohol is popular day by day in the human society. We have not change to prevent their hobby but we must (protect) advice them to reduce drink. It is our duty. If they afflicted with alcohol, it is too difficult to cut off it. Especially, our nations are very like it. Even though, we know well about it how to prevent. That’s why; I just open my mouth above it. 
Modern Myanmar means, he is always talking about political without knowing or doing how to call political. It is too funny. I accept that politician means it is not honest way. Having a lot cheat and while of the condition, I don’t know how I to political.
Hot air Myanmar means, wherever he lived in the world, he is non-stop without thinking and doing his duty. And then, he gives a lot of reason his faults. Every society we can see that person. Infect, I am not critic. I am just open my mouth.

Don’t be afraid of criticism

Sweetness can cause sickness. Praise is sweet, but too much of it can cause one to be sick. Criticism can be like a bitter pill or a painful injection: it is unpleasant surely, but it can do us good.
Don’t be afraid of honest criticism. Remember that no one can really be free from it, not even great people. Criticism is futile because it puts one on the defensive and usually provokes a defensive attitude. Criticism is dangerous because if wounds precious pride, hurts the sense of importance and arouse resentment. But there is a constructive side to criticism. We should listen to criticism, especially if it is constructive, and welcome the opportunity for self improvement. We should restrain our ego and not have hatred towards the critic. We must not be quick to label as our enemies those who do not share our views. Not all who criticize us are our enemies. Therefore, adopt a positive attitude and listen intently to the message of the criticism. Does it have a basis and is there something we can learn from it? We may discover a weakness in our self that we were not being able to see before.
On the other hand, we may come across some incorrigible people who are not affected by our good-well. We may try using peaceful methods and reason with them, but it will be in vain. In this case it is best to ignore them and let them go their own way. Even then we should not be angry or take revenge against them. Because by doing so, we will fall into the same pool of mud they are wallowing in. Getting involved in mud-slinging will make us no better then our enemy. We defile you in the process. Many people interfere with unnecessary things either to do something malicious or to pass uncalled for remarks. As a result of this negative attitude, they get into trouble.
At the same time, we should not be too critical or inquisitive about other people’s affairs and poke our nose where we are not wanted. There is an Eastern folk tale to illustrate this point.
                                                                                    (from- why worry)

The power of Patience


In our daily life, there is much that we have to endure. We have to bear all kinds of pain. Both physically and mentally. We have to face worries, frustrations, depressions, and all types of imaginary fears. It is useful to know how to put up with this pain because many physical disorders are brought about by wrong habits of thought. Unhealthy mental attitudes and unnecessary anxieties. Under such circumstances, it will be useful to practice patience.
Patience is mentioned as one of the exemplary characteristics of a religious person, along with sincerity, swiftness in understanding and tenderness one who has these four qualities is said to be worthy of respect. After gaining spiritual liberation, pindola, a disciple of the Buddha, returned to his native place, kosanbi, to repay the people there for the kindness they had shown him. It had been a hot summer day, and on reaching the outskirts of kosambi, pindola sat in meditation under the cool shade of a tree in a park on the bank of the Yamuna River.
At the time, king Udena came to the park with his consorts for recreation and, after music and pleasure, he took a nap in the shade of another tree. While their king was sleep, his wives and ladies-in-waiting took a walk and suddenly came upon pindola in meditation. They recognized him as a holy man and asked him to teach them.
When the king awoke from his nap, he went in search of his ladies and found them surrounding this holy man ad listening to his teaching. Being of a jealous and lascivious mind, the king become angry and abused pindola, saying: “It is inexcusable that you, a holy man, should be in the midst of woman and enjoy idle talk with them.” Pindola quietly closed his eyes and remained silent.
The angry king drew his sword and threatened paindola, but the holy man remained silent and was firm as a rock. This made the king more anger and he broke open an anthill and threw some of the ant filled dirt upon him. Still pindola remained sitting in meditation and quietly endured the insult and pain. Pindola’s ashamed of his bad conduct and begged pindola’s pardon. As a result of this incident, the Buddha’s teaching found its way into the kind’s castle and from there it spread all over the country.
Be patient. Anger leads on to a pathless jungle. While anger irritates and annoys others, it also hurts oneself, weakens the physical frame and discharged from a mind. A harsh word, like an arrow discharged from a bow, can never be taken back even after a thousand apologies. Never use harsh words in a hearts the trouble.
By cultivating and developing patience, the destructive emotional energy within us will not have the chance to surface to take control and direct us to commit evil. I did not hear what you said. One venerable Sariputta, the chief disciple of the Buddha, was confronted by a Brahmin who abused him. When these words did not affect Venerable Sariputta, the Brahmin became even more furious.
Didn’t you hear what I have just said? Shouted the angry Brahmin. Do you have nothing to say to all my insults? Venerable Sariputta, smiled gently at the Brahmin, and replied, “Well, my friend, I don’t hear you loud and clear. But since I know that you have nothing useful to say. I hear only sound vibrations, and I do not listen to the words, so I am not affected by their meaning”.
Forget every evil or insult; remember every kindness. The world has witnessed enough hatred already. Let the future be based on the broad foundation of loving- kindness, compassion and wisdom. The Buddhist way of dealing with problems is not prescriptive but therapeutic. Hatred or anger, like any other destructive emotion, is be eradicated not by suppression but by gradually removing its roots.
If we return violence for violence, there can be no end to it. Enmity will give rise to more enmity. A desire for revenge will arouse more vengeful thoughts. Resentment can never be conquered by resentment, and hatred only begets hatred. The best approach to these evils is to appease them with the antidotes of sympathy, forgiveness, tolerance and patience. Gandhi says: “Take an eye for an eye, and the whole world will be blind.”
