    Satisfy Your Heart https://yogitonics.com/satisfy-your-heart/ https://yogitonics.com/satisfy-your-heart/#respond Wed, 03 May 2017 08:48:41 +0000 http://yogitonics.com/?p=112 You may try to satisfy your body with extravagant or overindulgent eating or sensualities, but it won’t fill you up.

    Better each day to seek to satisfy your heart, with helping and performing good actions for the welfare of others and sharing in good will towards them.

    This will make your days worth while. Satisfy your heart and you will be satisfied.

    That is where God lives in each being.

    The Highest Blessings – Mangala Sutta https://yogitonics.com/the-highest-blessings-mangala-sutta/ https://yogitonics.com/the-highest-blessings-mangala-sutta/#respond Fri, 14 Apr 2017 09:17:07 +0000 http://yogitonics.com/?p=10 Thus I have heard that the Blessed One
    Was staying at Savatthi,
    Residing at the Jeta’s Grove
    In Anathapika’s Park.

    Then in the dark of the night, a radiant deva
    Illuminated all Jeta’s Grove.
    She bowed down low before the Blessed One
    Then standing to one side she said:

    ‘Devas are concerned with happiness
    And ever long for peace.
    The same is true for humankind.
    What then are the highest blessings?’

    ‘Avoiding those of foolish ways,
    Associating with the wise,
    And honouring those worthy of honour.
    These are the highest blessings.’

    ‘Living in places of suitable kinds,
    With the fruits of past good deeds
    And guided by the rightful way.
    These are the highest blessings.’

    ‘Accomplished in learning and craftsman’s skills,
    With discipline highly trained,
    And speech that is true and pleasant to hear.
    These are the highest blessings.’

    Providing for mother and fathers support
    And cherishing family,
    And ways of work that harm no being,
    These are the highest blessings.’

    ‘Generosity and a righteous life,
    Offering help to relatives and kin,
    And acting in ways that leave no blame.
    These are the highest blessings.’

    ‘Steadfast in restraint, and shunning evil ways,
    Avoiding intoxicants that dull the mind,
    And heedfulness in all things that arise.
    These are the highest blessings.’

    ‘Respectfulness and being of humble ways,
    Contentment and gratitude,
    And hearing the Dhamma frequently taught.
    These are the highest blessings.’

    Patients and willingness to accept one’s faults,
    Seeing venerated seekers of truth,
    And sharing often the words of the Dhamma.
    These are the highest blessings.’

    ‘Ardent, committed to the Holy Life,
    Seeing for oneself the Noble Truths
    And the realisation of Nibbana.
    These are the highest blessings.’

    ‘Although in contact with the world,
    Unshaken the mind remains
    Beyond all sorrow, spotless, secure.
    These are the highest blessings.’

    ‘Those who live by following this path
    Know victory wherever they go,
    And every place for them is safe.
    These are the highest blessings.’

     

    Taken from the Book of Chanting  at Cittaveka Buddhist Monastery.

    Live an honest life – work hard for your money, pay taxes, don’t cheat people, over deliver for them
    Don’t judge people – see their benefits and positive traits

    Don’t think me first; always stop to give your hand to another person whilest on your path
