DO YOU WISH YOUR ENEMIES WELL?


[+] ballot by justanother
ACTIVE Sat May 03, 08 - Sun May 03, 09

I just learned of a Buddhist practice, that they call a Buddhist prayer. You start by wishing yourself well, that you may be happy, content and fulfilled, healed and whole, protected from harm and free from fear, etc. And then you wish those things for your loved ones., which is easy enough. And then you wish those things for the people you don't like, because they annoy you or do you harm in some way. And it follows that if those people are happy and content , etc., etc. then they won't be in a position to be annoying or harmful.

I found it a very satisfying exercise and it changes my perception of people.

Do you wish your enemies well?

Yes
No
What are you smoking?

Mom studied Zen Buddhism. She told me to do this when I was very little. Rather than be in fear of my enemires, they became my projects. None of them lasted as long as I did at any single place.

I wouldn't say I've got anyone who I could call an enemy. The word "Enemies" implies that they could be a threat. There may be one or two who dislike me for whatever reasons, but they're not in any position to do anything about it. I prefer to call them sadsacks. I wish them AND everyone else well. :o)
