the TRUTH is in you.....

"By & large, Kachchayana, this world is supported by (takes as its object) a polarity, that of existence & non-existence. But when one sees the origination of the world as it actually is with right discernment, 'non-existence' with reference to the world(mind,thoughts..) does not occur to one. When one sees the cessation of the world(mind) as it actually is with right discernment, 'existence' with reference to the world does not occur to one."
lord Buddha said this particular dhamma to kachchayana goththa thero who asked about the "samma dhitti" or the right view from the Buddha. Buddha stated that, by getting free from both extream  ends, mind can get the middle way.that`s what explained as the samma dhitti or the right view.by using the word "world" lord Buddha explained about the mind which collects the thoughts through going around the six places of ours:eyes(scenes),ears(sounds),nose(smells),toung(taste),skin(touch),mind(though ts).through going around these areas mind is collecting thoughts.with those thoughts the world is being created.so that you have your own world, I have my own world.there`s nothing to believe as a real,absolute world.In brief:world is thoughts.
                                                       when you are having a deep sleep, do you have a world?no,you havn`t.you may think that you know that the world is there whether you have gone a sleep,but you got that particular "thought" because of your mind.even without that you cannot think of a world.
                                                whole your mind is on a two folded ends ,which is the cause of your sufferings.
                         happy-unhappy
                         joy    - suffer
                      bright   - dark
All these two folded thoughts are coming because of desire you have attached to your own thoughts about the world ,believing that the world is a real one.
                                             World is all about your thoughts:mind.

  2. Excellent Harith...
    Posting in English is more advisable than in sinhala. There are foreigners who are very interested in searching the supreme truth. A lot of sri lankans are like a caravan/ a gang of baffaloes who roam closing their eyes as blinded... Your mind will no longer touch the hell...........
