Stop!!!

Article summary

Let’s think deeply about our attitude of stopping others rather than stopping ourselves!

Racist asks non racist to stop… Non racist asks racist to stop

Government asks opposition to stop… 

Opposition asks government to stop

Parents asks children to stop… Children asks parents to stop

Teachers asks students to stop… Students asks teachers to stop

Husbands asks wives to stop… Wives asks husbands to stop

From top level to down level, everyone ask other to stop…

From dawn to dusk, everyone expect other person to stop

When he stop???  When she stop???

When they stop??? Why they don't stop???

BUT…

A pure Buddhist... Ask only one person to stop…

Or when one strong question asked, one become a real Buddhist…

The question is; 

WHEN AM I GOING TO STOP??? 

One strong question,

"When "I" stop???"

Solve all kind of problem

Inner problems & outer problems…

By making one realize that there,

There never were problems…

When one asks this question,

"When I Stop???"…

From that moment onward, World begin to stop…

When world stop, all kind of unsatisfactory feelings,

All king of sufferings, everything stops…

That moment you begin to realize

What "stop" really means…?

Just like "Angulimala" realized,

When Samma Sambuddha / Lord Buddha

Asked him to stop while he stop physically…

Until you asked to question,

"When I stop???"

You have load of reasons to point fingers to the others…

When you see problems out there…

You have loads of reason to suffer & burn…

So ask the question…

"WHEN AM I GOING TO STOP????"

And use your wisdom to realize the deep meaning

Then you find nothing but peace…

Harmony, joy & pure happiness…

Where all the flames stop burning…

You find nothing but…

THE ENLIGHTENMENT!!!
