Through the path of enlightenment

Through the path of enlightenment. Corona is an endemic disease which appal even world powers like America, China. We will have to stay at home for few more months. We used to work hard with writing assignments and mid exams. Suddenly university was shut due to spread of corona virus. When a busy one get a free time at once, he or she bedazzles. I couldn’t imagine what to do. I helped my mother by doing household chores and I watched films. But I could not enjoy the free time. I wanted an inner peace. Due to I am a buddhist I go to temple, when I get a free time. But we can’t go out due to curfew. But I realized later that this corona endemic gave us an opportunity to get spiritual consolation. We don’t cooperate and interact with society in these days. Corona gave an opportunity to protect our five precepts which laymen’s eternal virtue. Due to fear, some neighbors who didn’t use to listen to sermons and didn’t use to accumulate merits, chant “Rathana suthraya”. I develop loving-kindness for the inner peace. It gives a consolation to my weary life. There is no point in fearing. If we improve our self-discipline and immune system, we can defeat this endemic. W.I.M.Withanage
