The Pain of Self-Indulgence Parables of
Gautama Buddha "Lord, forgive me
that I do not prostrate before you with proper reverence;
but I suffer miserably from obesity,
drowsiness, excessive lethargy and other complaints, which
make it impossible for me to move with out pain." "There are five
things which produce the conditions from which you suffer:
opulent dinners, love of sleep, love of pleasure,
thoughtlessness and lack of occupation. Begin to
exercise control at your meals, and take upon yourself
some occupation which will employ your abilities and make
you useful to your fellow-men. In doing this you will
prolong your life." And the Blessed
One said, "The worldly one nourishes his body, but the wise
one nourishes his soul. He who indulges in the satisfaction
of his appetites works his own destruction; but he who walks
in the path of self-discipline will not only gain
salvation from sin, but prolong his life." Health and Welfare News Teachings of Buddha, Buddhist TeachingsBe Happy, Peaceful ...Be Calm ...Noble Truths ...The golden age ...Nam myoho renge kyo ...Reiki Training and Workshops ... Complementary
