(RBU) NOSTALGIA OF TEACHING COMPASSION


These are the Cambodian Ways of Expression,
Of what Lord Buddha teaches of Compassion.
A banana-tree in blossom here is in Cambodia,
Kingdom of Wonders as the World knows it in Asia.

'Boys playing in water' scene reminisces of a nostalgia.
And a Buddhist Monk in one of Jendhamuni's photos,
Is H. H. Moha Ghosanada preaching world of no foes.
As in this Land, former Great Empire of Cambodia.
                                Sao Puthpong, Cambodia

Jendhamuni Sos originally shared this post:
Give up anger

Give up anger; renounce pride;
transcend all worldly attachments.
No sufferings touch the person
who is not attached to name and form,
who calls nothing one's own.
Whoever restrains rising anger like a chariot gone astray,
that one I call a real driver;
others merely hold the reins.

Overcome anger by love; overcome wrong by good;
overcome the miserly by generosity, and the liar by truth.
Speak the truth; do not yield to anger;
give even if asked for a little.
These three steps lead you to the gods...
