(RIGHT LIVING - IN REALITY 40.A, B+C)
IF BY GIVING UP A LITTLE PLEASURE
ONE FINDS MUCH PLEASURE*(01)
IT IS A WISE MAN WHO RELINQUISHES THE LITTLE PLEASURE IN FLAVOUR OF THE GREATER PLEASURE*(02) (THE BUDDHA)
*(01) (BY REALIZING REALITY AS HOW - NOT MYSTICAL OR MYTHICAL BUT AS ONE OR WOULD TRULY WISH IT A REAL JOY, WHERE TRANSIENT SENSE
PLEASURES ARE SUPPORTED BY THE JOY
OF THE TRUTH TO PRODUCE A SUSTAI-
NED HAPPINESS)
INCIDENTLY, NO OTHER JOY IS SO MUCH SOUTH, BY SO MANY, FOR SO LITTLE -
AS SEX. FOR SEX IS THE SAME AS ANY PLEASANT SKIN STIMULATION - ONLY
MORE CONCENTRATED. AND, LOVE PLAY REALLY IMPLIES LUST PLAY, AS IT
ENDS WITH SEX. AFTER ALL, SEX IS A FIXED CONSTANT SPECIES PROCREATION JOY. TRUE LOVE PLAY IS A CONTINUOUS HARMONIZING - FOR HAPPINESS.
- HE WHO CHECKS** (01) (REFLEXLY) ARISEN ANGER** (02), LIKE A WHIRLING
CHARIOT, HIM DO I CALL A CHARIOTEER, OTHERS MERELY HOLD THE REIGNS.
** (01) {IF YOU ARE EVEN JUSTLY ANGRY, YOU ARE DISTURBED. IF ARE UNJUSTLY ANGRY, YOU ARE UNREASONABLE AND PROBABLY IN COMPASSIONATE AS
WELL. A JUST ANGER MEANS A RATIONAL DISLIKE. TO AVOID SUCH CONTACT IS
TO HAVE SUCH ANGER.
*
*(02). BY REALIZING REALITY, OR AS HOW ONE WOULD
TRULY WISH IT -
BY EVALUATING ANGER’S CAUSE AMD EFFECT,
WHICH IS, SIMILAR TO LUST, REFLEX IN ORIGIN
AND INTENTIONAL IN CONTROL (THUS ONE
CANNOT TOTALLY PREVENT ANGER, BUT BY CHECKING IT, ONE CAN THINK CLEARLY TO GAIN CONTROL.
SIMILARLY, ONE HAS GOT TO KEEP CHECKING LUST,
UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY SUBLIMATED TO
A GREATER JOY)
- IF IN LIFE YOU DO NOT FIND A COMPATIBLY COMPANION*** (01) EQUAL OR
BETTER (ESTABLISHED IN REALITY) THAN YOURSELF, ROAM ALONE*** (02) LIKE A
RHINOCEROS; FOR THERE IS NO COMPANIONSHIP WITH (ANYONE ELSE OR) A
FOOL*** (03).
THE 3 CATEGORIES
OF HUMAN BEINGS.

AS HOW ONE WOULD TRULY |
- IN THE SACRIFICE OF A LITTLE, IMMEDIATE APLEASRE TO
AVOID MUCH, FUTURE DISPLEASURE.) |
WISH IT -
** (03). (HERE, THE BUDDHA IS DEFINITELY REFERRING TO A LIFE’S COMPANION OR PARTNER, AND IS NOT REFERRING TO ASSOCIATES AND PART - TIME RELATIONSHIPS. THE REQUIREMENT IS FOR ‘GOING STEADY’ - TOWARDS REALITY. AND FOR THIS A SINGLE COMPATIBLE COMPANION IS BEST.
