“This is not mine, this I am not, this is not myself” Buddha
If a scumbag makes a friend it is likely another scumbag in the list of friends. I was learning to become a digital marketer, guess what, I made lots of friends from the digital marketing industry.
Do you dream and hear voices of familiar people in your head? Do you have control in what you dream and hear? Like most people if you say “I don’t have control” then it is high time you start to do the following:
- Guarding your faculties means that we are aware of all our 6 senses at all time.
On seeing, realize you are seeing, and the brain stops processing into something more.
If your brain do not realize consciously seeing then it will be automatically processed further by your brain to become an element to be reinforced in your head.
The eyes, ears, tongue, nose, body and mind are faculties that must be guarded against outside stimuli. That’s the origin of cause and effect.
What is suffering is non-self, what is non-self should be seen really is with correct wisdom thus, this is not mine, this I am not, this is not myself, seeing thus he understands there is no state of beings. Buddha
