WHYWhy must they all lie?
Why must they deny?
The words that He had said,
And the Eightfold Way.
Why do they close their minds
And choose to be so blind?
Thro’s birth, and death and change,
Round they will go again.
CHORUS:
Round and round they’ll go again,
Round they’ll go again.
Down and down they’re burnt in flames,
Down they’ll go in pain.
Why do they deafen their ears?
Why do they not hear?
The words of love and peace,
From the Master’s seat.562 views

FARE-YE-WELLMy fond young wife, oh fare-ye-well,
I leave your side to come again,
A sage of sages, king of kings,
This holy hour tho’full of pain.
This palace vast is small to me,
I cannot breathe nor lie at rest,
The vaster world bids me to leave,
This vanity for what is best.
So fare thee well, my only son,
Reclining in the mother’s arms,
I go to build the realm of truth,
Hence leave I all with folded palms.
And mount my horse, and fly thro’s Time,
To conquer pain and birth and death,
To find a way to reach that bliss,
I leave behind this passing wealth!
(repeat the first verse)

SONG OF THE PILGRIMNo sentient life in all the worlds,
Will ever cease to be,
Unending all as Thou and I,
Though forms change constantly,
Then life imprisoned in the earth,
May bloom as lovely flower,
So all evolve a fairer birth,
CHORUS:
Remembering always “Buddha Thou art”
The path will lighter grow,
The Buddha seed within our heart,
Will guide to those who know.
On through the endless eons of time,
Through forms from stone to man,
All beings to perfection climb,
Such is the faultless plan.
Perfected man the masters are,
And we shall also climb,
To starry heights in worlds afar,
And know the Truth sublime.

A Manual of AbhidhammaVen. Narada Maha Thera
Abhidhamma is the Higher Teaching of the Buddha. It expounds the quintessence of His profound doctrine. The Dhamma, embodied in the Sutta Pitaka, is the conventional teaching, and the Abhidhamma is the ultimate teaching. In the Abhidhamma both mind and matter, which constitute this complex machinery of man, are microscopically analysed. Chief events connected with the process of birth and death are explained in detail. Intricate points of the Dhamma are clarified. The Path of Emancipation is set forth in clear terms.1281 views

หลักกรรมและการเกิดใหม่โดย พระธรรมโกศาจารย์ (ประยูร ธมฺมจิตฺโต)
เรื่องหลักกรรมและการเกิดใหม่ เป็นเรื่องที่พูดถึงกันบ่อยและยังไม่มีข้อสรุปที่แน่นอน ทั้งนี้เพราะเหตุที่ว่า เรื่องนี้ ไม่สามารถจะพิสูจน์ให้เป็นที่พอใจ ส่วนมากเราพูดกันเพื่อให้ได้แนวทางดำเนินชีวิต คือมีศรัทธาแบบชาวพุทธ
หนังสือ กรรมและการเกิดใหม่ นี้ เป็นการพูดถึงเรื่องที่เกี่ยวพันกับความเชื่อหรือศรัทธา ศรัทธาเป็นเครื่องแสดงลักษณะของศาสนา บางคนอาจจะบอกว่า พระพุทธศาสนาเป็นศาสนาที่มีเหตุผล คือเป็นศาสนาที่สอนให้คนคิดไตรสวนถามก่อนที่จะปลงใจเชื่อ โดยเขาอ้าง กาลามสูตร ขึ้นมาว่า คนเราไม่ควรเชื่อเพียงเพราะฟังตามๆ กันมา ไม่ควรเชื่อเพียงเพราะตรรก ไม่ควรเชื่อเพียงเพราะอ้างตำรา และสรุปว่าพุทธศาสนา เป็นศาสนาแห่งเหตุผล ไม่ใช่เป็นศาสนาที่สอนให้คนมีศรัทธาเป็นแกนนำอย่างเดียว179 views

Lecture 1. (a) The BuddhaThis course consists of 10 lectures on the fundamentals of the Buddha’s Teachings, the Dhamma:
The lectures explain the Dhamma from the perspective of Theravada Buddhism, the oldest continuous Buddhist school, whose scriptures, the Pali canon, give the most accurate picture of what the historical Buddha himself actually taught. The lectures are intended to be basic enough to be of value to beginners without previous study of the Dhamma, and deep and through enough to be of interest to long-term students seeking to extend and clarify their understanding.1680 views
