MARCH 19th
LIVING THE TEACHINGS
"If one acts in accordance with the teachings, forsaking lust, hatred, and delusion, and acting with true wisdom and a liberated mind, clinging to nothing in this or any other world— such a person shares in the blessings of a holy life."
—The Buddha, Dhammapada 20
In this verse, the Buddha emphasizes the importance of embodying the teachings rather than merely reciting them. He teaches that true spiritual progress is achieved through the practical application of the Dhamma, leading to the abandonment of negative mental states such as lust, hatred, and delusion. This approach fosters wisdom and mental liberation, allowing one to live without attachment in any realm.
The verse underscores that even minimal knowledge of the scriptures can lead to profound spiritual growth when diligently applied. The focus is on the quality of practice rather than the quantity of textual knowledge. By living in accordance with the teachings, one can experience the true essence of the holy life.
Reflect on how you can integrate the Buddha's teachings into your daily life. Consider areas where you can let go of attachments and negative emotions. By aligning your actions with the Dhamma, you can cultivate wisdom and experience the blessings of a liberated mind.
