Buddhism…. my first look

 I picked these from Buddhism concepts . They seem Interesting and Just . Good for anyone to follow as you will not find a reason not to do :-)

Some good deeds :

1. Do not kill
2. Do not steal
3. Do not indulge in sexual misconduct
4. No lying
5. No double-tongued speech
6. No abusive speech
7. No irresponsible speech
8. No greed
9. No hatred
10. No delusion

The first three are  Body deeds. The last three are Mind deeds. The remaining four  are deeds performed by Speech.   Body, speech and mind are the three means of actions.

Actions can be evil /good.

Apart from avoiding the evil actions, one can take positive attitude in performing the good actions. The Ten Meritorious Deeds allow people to gain a happy and peaceful life as well as to develop knowledge and understanding are:

1. Charity
2. Morality / Taking Precepts
3. Mental cultivation / Meditation
4. Reverence or respect
5. Services in helping others
6. Transference of merits
7. Rejoicing in the merits of others
8. Preaching and teaching Dharma
9. Listening to the Dharma
10. Straightening one’s own views

 

Not Converting into Buddhism ….. But These are the way of life I can relate to .

 

Cheers………..
