Lord Buddha was sitting under a banyan tree. One day, a furious Brahmin came to him and started abusing him.

The Brahmin thought that Buddha would reciprocate in the same manner, but to his utter surprise, there was not the slightest change in the expression on his face.
Now, the Brahmin became more furious. He hurled more and more abuses at Buddha. However, Buddha was completely unmoved. Actually there was a look of compassion on his face. Ultimately the Brahmin was tired of abusing him. He asked, "I have been abusing you like anything, but why are you not angry at all ?"

Lord Buddha calmly replied, "My dear brother, I have not accepted a single abuse from you."

"But you heard all of them, didn't you?" The Brahmin argued half-heartedly.

Buddha said, "I do not need the abuses, so why should I even hear them?"

Now the Brahmin was even more puzzled. He could not understand the calm reply from Buddha.

Looking at his disturbed face, Buddha further explained, "All those abuses remain with you."

"It cannot be possible. I have hurled all of them at you," the Brahmin persisted.

Buddha calmly repeated his reply, "But I have not accepted even a single abuse from you ! Dear brother, suppose you give some coins to somebody, and if he does not accept them, with whom will those coins remain?"

The Brahmin replied, "If I have given the coins and not needed by someone, then naturally they would remain with me."

With a meaningful smile on his face, Buddha said, "Now you are right. The same has happened with your abuses. You came here and hurled abuses at me, but I have not accepted a single abuse from you. Hence, all those abuses remain with you only. So there is no reason to be angry with you."

The Brahmin remained speechless. He was ashamed of his behavior and begged for Buddha's forgiveness.

Inner calmness and peace are keys to contented life.

When will Prachanda, Baburam, Madhav, Girija, Ram Chandra Poudel, and all those Brahmin leaders will beg for forgiveness from NEPALESE PEOPLE. I think that's not going to happen. These buggers will have to be forced out of the system... and Time will come when Nepalese POeple will dump all these guys in the landfill.

Why're people so uptight against Brahmins ?!?! I don't give a shit if someone were to go against Prachanda, Girija, Ramchandre, Baburam and co but why do people need to drag the brahmins like this?!?!

Prem "Nepali" bro lai dheraile hepe jasto cha ni haina?

Desh ta ankhir baun leaders haru le nai bigaryo ta.... that's why you brahmins shoud punish your biradari bahun leaders. Be s true brahmin.

Chelsa, let me answeryour question. Brahmans are Nich, Loobhi and Sittain Maa Paayo Bhane Gu Pani Khane Jaat.

Hi, as a practicing Budhist, I feel like I need to respond to this thread. I don't know how the actual Brahmins live today, but the story above is a classical truth in Buddhist life story. When Gautama was enlightened and became the Budda, he tought only truth, the universal truth. He rose above all the sectarianism, which means of livelihood for the Brahmins the time. For example, Brahmins priest would deceitfully demand lot of offerings from the people in return for their services to please their gods, and they would tell people that only Brahmins can talk to the god directly. But Buddha rejected that idea, and said that was a false livelihood. (Budha's teaching on Right Livelihood: no cheating, no killing, no harming any sentient being). Budha proclaimed that one is the master of his own, and noboday can take nobody to heaven if such thing as heaven exists. Only oneself can create ones own Karma, and that becomes the path to one's own salvation (and to heave, if that is the understanding of the individual). Obviously, such teaching was putting lot of Brahmin priests out of job, and they were furious with Buddha. They crafted many tactics against the Buddha, including the one example posted above, but the Buddah unmovavle. He existed in the purest form (he was impurable) and his light would radiate far and wide to enligten even those with with darkes mind, such as the above Brahmin, from his own ignorance, not by force or preaching but by example, experience and teaching of the truth.

Some poeple misunderstands budhhism.... Buddha tried both extremes - Existense of God Notion and Total Materialism. He rejected both... and got success with Middle Path. He understood the relationships between Mind and Matter. Therefore, Buddha had to face lot of oppositions from both schools of thought during his time.. and yet he persisted. Till today no brahmin could defeat Buddha's teachings. Such was Buddha's enlightenment.

renunciation of thinking is a declaraion of spiritual bankruptcy ~ whilst prevalent to provincialism of religous conscience stigma such believe who`s who religion is superior to other religions is intolerence ~ obliterate the hatred for human minds too is species of violence!

notch from Lord Budhha,Holy Brahmin and decent Nepalese mankind citizens ~ leave them in peace - to alleviate the tension of your so called "Prachanda, Baburam, Madhav, Girija, Ram Chandra Poudel, and all those Brahmin leaders " Prem, i suggest you envisioned ahead into substitute world likes before Adam fell on spell ~ where life is simple and naive ~ bring all these name you mention and wrest in the name of you so called landfill, box there and see what you win should it pay you off to your agenda. Hope remedy!

बुद्दका वाणी र विचारको श्रद्दा गर्न खोज्नेले न त बाहुन न त अरू कसैलाई निच,र तुच्छ भनेर आरोप लगाउन सक्छ न त त्यहाँ कतै अरू प्रतिको घृणाको ओकलाइ नै , तर जो स्वयं नीच मनोग्रनथी बोकेको कुपात्र छ , उसले बुद्दवचनको सहयोग लिएर अरूमाथि प्रहार गर्छ र स्वयं बुद्दवादी बनेर बुद्दको अपमान गर्न तम्सिन्छ , यस्तो मनुष्य नराधमको कोटीमा वर्गीकृत बन्न पुग्छ भगवान बुद्दका अनुसार ।

जहासम्म माथिको कथाको प्रसंग छ , यस्को महत्व छ । तर घृणा र द्वेषको प्रचारको लागि हैन बरू ती कुराको बिरुद्दमा उभिनका लागि ।

प्राचीन समयमा मूर्तिपूजा, बली प्रथा र कर्मकाण्डको संस्कारमा जेलिएको प्रथा बिरुद्द बुद्द धर्मको अविर्भाव भएको भए पनि आजको बुद्दधर्म यिनै कुरामा उत्तिकै जकडिन पुगेको पनि साँचो हो ।

तर साँचो बुद्द दर्शन भने व्यक्तिको आत्मिक अनुसन्धान र खोजीका लागि प्रतिपादित निरिश्वरवादी दर्शन मात्र थियो , जुन अहिले आएर कर्मकाड कै चंगूलमा राम्ररी फँसेको छ । त्यही भएर मुर्ति र मांशाहार गर्नु पाप हो भन्ने बुद्द वचनको तिनै धर्मावलम्बीहरूले कहाँ पुर्याए बुझिनसक्नु छ ।

यो नेता हरु लाई गौतम्को कुरा सुनायर केही फाईदा छैन । एनीहरुले नरक जाने बाटो आँफै बनाएका छन र तेही बाटोमा जान्छन। चीन्ता लिनु पर्दैन। एनीहरुका बौ बाजेले दुनो पोको पर्थे भने अहीले त्एही दुनो सोझाएका हुन। एेनिहरु झुथो बोल्छन जुठो बोल्नेको विश्वाश नगर । जुठो बोल्ने मान्छे हीजदा हो।
धर्मशास्त्र र राजनीतीशास्त्र को सम्योगबाट मात्रा जनकल्यन हुन्छ। एे पखन्दीहरुधर्म छोडेर राजनीती गर्छन्। यो पापीहरुको समय हो, त्एसैले पापीहरुको कुरा नगर। नेपाल आमा का भार हुन एे चोर हरु। गोरख काली को सक्क्तीले एे नेताहरु भस्मा हुन्छन केही समय पछी। पापीहरु छीया छीया हुन्छन, हेर।
