Article from FORYOU MAGAZINE – SINGAPORE February 2018

According to the discourse of Upajjhatthana Sutta(“Subjects for Contemplation”)in Anguttara_Nikaya, there are five remembrances facts regarding life’s fragility and our true inheritance.

Buddhist way of living in harmony Equality without divisions
Venerable Dr. Omalpe Sobhita Nayake Thero
Living beings are differ in bodies and minds. “Nanatta kaya, nanattha sanna”
People having different temperaments are the nature of the world, according to the Buddha. Living beings differ according to their karma or the volitional action. It is a universal truth. Failure to accept it leads to disaster. (Kammam satte vibhajati yadidam hinappanitataya)
Dictator Hitler wanted to create an ‘Aryan Nation’ and make the Germans a superior race. The strong moves he made in this direction resulted in the deaths of over five million people.
Cambodian Leader Pol Pot wanted to build his country under a dictatorship of the proletariat. He thought that only the proletariat should live. His policy thus led to the deaths of at least two million people.
