MeditationMeditation for BeginnersHow To Build The Habits Of The ChildrenTo Be Sincere And Clever (Mai Ngo)#2Teach very strictly from a young age all of the good habits.When You Respect The Lord Buddha You Are CleverPeople, after they are born as humans, whether they are a child or an adult, cannot observe who is a good person and who is a bad person because they are not clever (no common sense). S/he may be a graduate with many a degree such as B.S., M.A. or PhD, but will be unable to tell who is good or bad. If you cannot tell the difference then someone may cheat you or lie to you (hoodwink you) or more than that, you can bring a bad person into your house. The household will then have a problem. The family will lose their good name. They will always have problems and will never stop.Sometimes one generation will die and the problem still never ends. The younger generation will still feel the repercussions of the problems. You can still see the results often in the present. The reason is because they are not truly sharp to distinguish the good people from the bad.But for someone to see who is good or who is bad it is necessary to be trained with the two factors:1} Know the good patterns to use to distinguish the desirable people.2} Teach very strictly from a young age all of the good habits.When you complete these two factors, then when you grow up you will know how to pick the good person for a kalyanamitta (good noble friend) and know how to observe the good people from the bad people.Be able to observe persons and see how they are able to succeed and see how they are able to become very wealthy. Also observe how other persons have become bankrupt. You should be able to separate the reasons and understand the peoples’ behaviors and temperaments. You will be able to know people and predict their next move. You will be able to tell who has wisdom and you will know the deeper reason and the origin of their good and the “measure” of their good.When You Respect The Lord Buddha You Are CleverThe end result is that they will have guides to think about, before doing or creating anything that will make them assess:1) What is good, real, and useful and how can I best learn from that example?2) How do I make the best out of that example?So this way they will do only good things in their lives, in their jobs, and for their nation.That is the power of the good deeds and the habits that they try to learn which is to learn only good things.On the other hand, the children, who have never been taught to have a rule for measuring good people, bad people, boon, kamma, should or should not never got trained to do good deeds and will have to struggle by trying to do right and wrong things by themselves. They will not know how to separate wisdom in terms of bad and good. These children will have a life of trials of right or wrong and will be very unfortunate.If they have a habit of observing peoples’ bad deeds, it will make their lives worse. It would be like the parents trying to take care of a thief.A thief might not want to be bad, but s/he acquires a wrong concept that being a thief is good. They think wrongly because they see wrongly so the child keeps on observing others and cannot distinguish the good person. The things that the children see are the misconduct and as a result their minds will be full of bad things. S/he will think that everybody in the world is bad except him/herself.If this situation happens, the child will be the most unfortunate person. The chance for him/her to be successful will be lessened. S/he will keep on repeating thinking, speaking and doing only bad things all of the time and they have a clouded mind forever. The parents and the family will be suffering from his/her behavior. The parents will be sorry but will be unable to find where they went wrong in teaching their children wisdom so they let their children get away with everything. This is because the parents don’t know how to correct it." /> " /> " /> " /> " /> " /> " /> " /> " />" /> " />
