Dhammic worldly laws and order - Cultur union leader
« on: January 07, 2023, 10:45:13 AM »
Recently Atma was another time censured by "Union leader" of the Western Brahmans and Jewish hemisphere, as he appreciated by citing the Sublime Buddhas Dhamma on the "A Nations welfare" after a Sri Lankan citizens tried to point out "undemocratic" law enforcement against dispraise of culture, Religion and scared Shrines:

Namo tassa bhagavato arahato sammā-sambuddhassa

“What have you heard, Ananda: do the Vajjis show respect, honor, esteem, and veneration towards their shrines, both those within the city and those outside it, and do not deprive them of the due offerings as given and made to them formerly?”

“I have heard, Lord, that they do venerate their shrines, and that they do not deprive them of their offerings.”

“So long, Ananda, as this is the case, the growth of the Vajjis is to be expected, not their decline.

“What have you heard, Ananda: do the Vajjis duly protect and guard the arahats, so that those who have not come to the realm yet might do so, and those who have already come might live there in peace?”

“I have heard, Lord, that they do.”

“So long, Ananda, as this is the case, the growth of the Vajjis is to be expected, not their decline.”

Western Brahmans and their "labor union leader" usually go against all what can be blamed as the bad "authority" for their desires of control in very worldly ways.

Although it's of course not always just a holy intention to enforce law and order in regard of holy things, the opposite, tendency toward Anarchism, revolts and disregard of religion and culture has only and always one objection, and this is destroying cultures and nations for the sake of taking over them and harvest the gained market without requirements of obligations toward higher sacrifices.

It's not only amazing but actually very praiseworthy that there are still leader left who hold to old and especially good culture, while the major public present world goes with all means against religion and culture everywhere, focusing on trading in intoxications and "weapons" (technical means to occupy and destroy, incl. farming equipment) so that old cultures would slowly get destroyed from within.

Worthy to make a topic on what's sacrifices toward culture, religion and tradition by the old worlds cultures and leaders. And, of course, any praise of good measures whould be censured in the sphere of the marxis-atheist world of "consume first".

Recently, as read, for example, although it's sad that Monks do not go after such by following Vinaya, understanding Vinaya, here, the great leader ordered stronger measures against any monk who engages in Politic, sideutaking, use of lay people to seek for protests, leading and participating in what's causing unrest.

While such clear declaration of dislike of total improper behavior is not only total legitimate for a King, it's even protective for not so smart monks, not understanding the homeless life yet. As Western Brahmans would never accept such a para-sociaty like the Sangha, and see all equal, they feel like that those living on alms sould part-take on their "labor-union-revolts" and to gain afflictions by real poor and real homeless (those without religious refuge), they tell that monks should have rights, suggest them to hold on wrong view. And as their common folk thinks that such as "equal human rights" is anything real, they claim such protective measures as human-right violation, but actually by leaving home, one has consciously given up all refuges aside of that toward the Gems, and even such as going for voting (not to speak of encouraging toward side taking) has been left behind by ordaining, leaving home, all citizenships.

If there are refugees dwelling in your area, those you thought worthy to give space, if they then even would try to harm your larger interest within the area you take care of, go after gains in worldly manners, those you put on high potest and worthy to be protected, would you have joy with such?

In times where most monks are not in the Area of Noble Ones, authority of wise Elders are missing and Vinaya and Dhamma is neither high regarded nor understood by most, it's actually a blessing for many, when great leader and Kings nevertheless stick to the wisdom of Old and the teachings of the Arahats, for many, even if earning much critique by modern pseudo-liberal dealing traders.

Another of what had been read:

Maybe a year ago, the great leader ordered that nobody, including even the Royal King, should sit higher or equal the monks, the Sangha, in public, on events, meetings, even ordered a minimum measure.

That's a sacrifices of outsanding kind, in and of itself.

Sadly there are still, even public, seen monks, such as TV-shows, talks, youtube..., sitting on same level with moderator and crowd, speaking even Dhamma, or engage in wordly talks.

That's on the other side, most faulty in regard of Vinaya, if monks display such wrong "liberality".

Namo tassa bhagavato arahato sammā-sambuddhassa

Formaly, monks, in Benares, the wife if a certain low class man came to bd pregnant. Then, monks, this low class woman spoke thuse to this low cjlass man: 'Sir, I am pregnant; I want to eat a mango.'
'There are no mangoes, it's not the mango season', he said.
Now at that time the king had a mango tree with a perpetual crop of fruit. Then, monks, that low class man approached that mango tree; having approached, having climed up that mango tree, he renained hidden.
Then, monks, the king together with the brahmin priest, approached that mango tree; having approached, having sat down on a higher seat, he learnt a mantra. Then, monks, it occurred to the low class man:

'How unrighteous is this king, inasmuch as he learns Dhamma, having sat down on a high seat. This Brahmin also is unrightous, inasmuch as he, having sat down a low seat, teaches Dhamma to someone sitting on a higher seat. I too am unrighteous, I who for the sake of a woman (beloved poor), steal the Kings mangoes (Dhamma). But all this is quite gone,' and he fell down just there.

Neither knows the goal,
neither sees dhamma,
Neither he who teaches the Dhamma,
nor he who learns accordind to what is not the rule."

"My food is pure conjey
of rice flavoured with meat,
I do not therefore fare on Dhamma,
dhamma praised by the Noble.

Brahmin, shame on that gain of wealth,
(that) gain of fame;
That conduct (leads to falling away.
Quote from: Vinaya on that rule

It's hardly ever possible that monks would in proper manner teach the Dhamma in outer lands, and it's sure total harmful for devoted followers and fellows of good faith, to see they idols sitting equal or lower, participate in talks like householder, follow academics, where the lecture takes a lower position then the paying crowd.

In that way one actually, by such laws, does not only "bind" (making pleasing to dwell and teach ) Arahats and those following them, but also limits out-flows of good, encourages to take on manners worthy to make sacrifices for.
