We deliver you the brief of His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s declaration at the Buddhist Science and Science International Conference.
You can reduce your anger by meditation of consideration (cogitation)
Meditation is not only confined to Buddhism , other religions also use meditation. For example, the Christian religion is based on inner spiritual belief. Most importantly, instead of following superstitions, people should be sure of what they are doing. The main goal of Buddhism is to enlighten people by teaching (edification, treatise, precepts). There are 2 different types of meditation in Buddhism. First, meditation focused on breathing, to eliminate anger, in other words, that you can eliminate your anger by meditation of consideration. Also, you can eliminate your anger by improving your grace and clemency. Don’t treat Buddhism as only a religion. Try to understand the nature of things.
The main teaching concept of Buddhism is that every effect has cause and condition, not that the earth has its maker. But in their beliefs, most people pray to god to save and help them, which means that they believe in something that Buddhism does not proclaim. When you view Buddhism without understanding its teachings, there is no difference between your beliefs and other religious theories that talk about the maker of the earth.
Science used to explain that the mind is the product of the human brain. But there is an experiment that when you meditate, every single part of your brain works, including cells that do not work. Based on this, there is something that makes these cells work and that could be consciousness and mind. Therefore, based on the fact that with an influence of mind some cells of brain can work, the mind could be something more than an only part of human brain. Thus, we are very close to proving that the mind is much more than the human brain.
Every effect does not exist only by itself
If it does, it only could exist with as a matter of indivisible cells and dust. But when you look at it and consider that anything is indivisible, there is nothing that is indivisible. But effects exist with its pith of the matter and there is nothing that exists without the mind nor consciousness.
Everything is illusory in their actual meaning
It looks like you exist in the world, but when you try to find out if you truly exist and what made you exist, you can’t find it is origin nor reason. Quantum physics theory defined effects and matters are infinitive in the end. In the same way, we think of bodies and matter, but we don’t know how that body comes into being and where that body goes after life. Therefore, meditate on that which does not exist and with its power your thoughts may come to have effects and outcomes which exist in reality.
You only can spread Buddhism when you look at the inner nature
I teach to all lamas that they should read books as much as they can. They can study Buddhism in order to understand and know the inner nature of Buddhism, not only incant prayers. Being a lama is not only about build temples or stupas. Most importantly, knowing the nature of Buddhism is the biggest thing that you can do in order to spread Buddhism. Being a lama is not about prayers or wearing the lama's habit. The most important part of Buddhism is its inner nature, so lamas principally should establish their inner teachings.
