existence. The food that is to maintain one's life is hope, wish, or dream.
The function of this food supports man in developing the noble wishes
that are inclined to cultivate his deeds, to help and to benefit others, are
not harmful to the humans, animals and environment. However, man has
been immoderate in wishes. Instead of the development of the noble
wishes, one has made his wish go a drift into the stream flow of 鈥淚,'
"mine," and his wishes relate to the false notions of "I am this," "I am
that, ," "I was this," "I was not this," "I will be thus in future," "I will not
be thus,鈥� etc. With these wishes, he starts to enter into the battlefield of
goodness, badness, gain and loss, success and failure; superiority and
inferiority, etc. in which he has to encounter many serious troubles to get
his fame and position. When position is in his hand, immediately enemies
as well as envious people are on the watch round him and they can harm
him any time for his position; therefore, he tries to hold it with him at any
cost. However, he is doing a useless thing because what he has it will be
lost, further what he has now it has resulted from the struggles
competition, and many people have to lose their lives due to it. Thus, the
wrong wishes really are root causes of craving for sensual desire, craving
for existence, craving for non-existence, hatred, anger, etc. They lead
men to sorrow, lamentation, grief, and suffering. Such is the operation of
the idea "I" and "mine" and that of manosa帽cetan膩h膩ra. If all efforts of
those who are searching for happiness are based on "I" and "mine,"
happiness will always be out of their reach. Such is the current problems.
On the subject of the doctrine of Dependent Origination, the idea of
鈥渟elf鈥� and 鈥渕ine鈥� means ignorance (avijj膩,) and its operation really is the
operation of ignorance: this is the arising of Dependent Origination
leading to suffering, and is the truth of these current human problems.
