Wesak Day - the enlightenment

The wesak day

It is the enlighten day of Lord Buddha and the reminder of his great wisdom and thinking,

One of his teaching of right words and right actions is very true in this present day Malaysia where there is so much religious conflicts due to the increase in extremist, In the past,there was so much racial and religious harmony and people of different faiths live together happily and practicing their own belief.

Why do people use their religious belief to define which religion is better and to impose their religion on others?Religion is a very personal matter and what right is there for others to impose on other people? We are answering only to our creator for the things we have done in our life and let be as that. We don't need other people to force us to change our belief  and this is our right and chioce.

In my journey through life,I have seen many people who try to influence or impose their belief on others by attacking the faith and belief of others and breaking up family or turn friends into enemies, Good advise is always welcome but do not continue to persuade or impose your thoughts and belief on others until it becomes resentful and annoying. Live and lets live, Don't try to behave like God or a savior . Save your own self and be a good example for others to see and if they life it, they will follow, Basically, all religion is good and there are many roads to a destination , some longer , some shorter ,some smoother and some rougher. Well ,this variety makes life interesting and fun.

So ,on this enlightening day, lets practice the right word and right action to bring peace and happiness to everyone.

Namaste,
