Mindfulness of Moral Conducts: A Contribution to Welfare of Family’s Life

 

Comprehensive Mindfulness, of the Lay Buddhists’ 5 Precepts, has a vast impact on layperson’s livelihood of all sorts. It guards families from unfaithful misconduct of wife and husband rescuing and protecting against broken households. Moreover, observation of the 5 Precepts has also defended societal problems, additions, etc.; yet helped shut down the doors towards social calamities. These social destructions point directly to the 3^rd rule of 5 Precepts.

The above-mentioned rule is a will to refrain from committing adultery, or sexual intercourse with a young person that his/her parents have yet to permit culturally and legally. He, or she, does this misconduct transgressing the Rule. The vibe of this Rule is prone to the inner free agency of the transgressor, man or woman, but the connotation points straight to spiritual intent of Faithfulness and Contentment unto one’s owns life-partner as a secret covenant, of sound marriage.

The 5 lay Buddhist Precepts are:

1. The free agency to refrain from direct and indirect harming carnal being(s).
2. The free agency to refrain from direct and indirect sealing(s).
3. The free agency to refrain from direct and indirect committing adultery.
4. The free agency to refrain from direct and indirect verbal misconduct(s). 
5. free agency to refrain from direct and indirect drinking and taking drug(s).

The 5 Facilitative Rules that help enhance the 5 Precepts are:

  1.  Kindly loving and Compassion.

2.    2. Contentment with one’s owns possessions/belongings.

3.    3. Faithfulness and Contentment with one’s life-partner.

4.    4.  Commit not verbal misconduct, of all sorts.

Calm and Insight Observation, of bodily, verbal and mental behaviors.

1.    Calmly observing all the behaviors, with no justification, no control, no greediness, no anger, and no delusion. Just observe the ups and downs of these conducts: learn when it’s up, when it’s staying, and it’s gone as calmly without stress, pressure, or frustration.

Also, when these negative forces arising, or staying, or ceasing – just realize it calmly. Come and see these as it really is here and now. No thought but wakefulness of gratitude.

2.    Emptiness of defilement to be done the same here and now. Especially, the positive forces are such as faith in the Self – Enlightenment of Buddha the utmost Master, exertion to clean negative forces and promote positive forces as well as concentration on the neutral force with full awareness.

3.   Focusing on the pure moral forces is a good example of calm and insight meditation, or mind and wisdom development/cultivation. Tranquilizing the defiled forces of the threefold behaviors is one thing via focusing on how good and weak we observe the Precepts until we note an empty mind.

4.  Mostly, we take advantage of physical body and/or mind in the practice of mindfulness of Moral Conductfor at the moment of serious practice once in a day, or a night, the verbal is shut down bring fort the calm body and mind. Then, cultivation on the 5 Precepts prompted till we can acknowledge the emptiness of, as it’s truly is, the negative, positive and neutral forces as clear and clean of defilement that ban our mind from peace and spiritual light.
