7 Difficult, But Simple, Buddhist Habits That Will Change Your Life.
There is a reason why Buddhist monks seem so peaceful all the time (I mean a true Buddhist monk): they follow strict monastic rules of living that we do not. Their whole philosophy revolves around the goal to end suffering. That philosophy may seem alien to us and almost impossible, but the truth is it leads to a higher level of happiness. These rules will benefit us for the rest of our life. Simplify. Buddha was not born an ascetic. He was born a prince. He had every opportunity to have as many "material wants" as he wished. “Wants” are things like designer clothing, upscale dining, and sports cars. Without any doubt, they are luxury items, not necessities. But he did not. Instead, he saw through the vain attempts of materialistic fulfillment and decided there has to be some answer. We focus less on our personal problems when we can develop a selfless attitude. We are less emotional about small issues and our mind becomes calmer. Recognizing that being more selfless towards others brings deeper happiness is one of the pillars of spiritual life, it is also just common sense. We achieve a higher state of happiness when we help others. Let's Meditate! Meditation also changes our nature. besides changing our brain scientifically. Buddha knew that meditation is a powerful practice because meditation is the basic practice that will lead to enlightenment. We may not have the time to meditate for hours every day, but, even just 30 minutes will change our life. Follow the wise. Listen to our seniors and those with more experience. This is the path of the wise. There are always insightful people around us who we can learn from. 1.
