Young generation and the Buddhism


Our young generation is now more affectionate to the Buddhism. Most of the persons now studied or listened Lord Buddha's teaching. Due to this popularity, lot of new concepts are being created. 
There are 'Asapu', 'Mahamewna', 'Aasrama', 'Buddhist centers', 'Mediation centers', ‘Aramaya’ and 'International Buddhist centers'. The suitable word is Hi-Fi Buddhism.

We easily observe that lot of places insetead of Village temple that existed for generations and secure the Dhamma with great sprits.
I feel that the above places like separate segments ('Nikaya') in the main stream Buddha Sasana. The above segments have separate leaders who promote their concepts. 

This new trend is not good for the Buddha Sasana in particular and for the country in general. It is better to go in line with village temple concept rather than new concepts specially designed for personal glory.
If this trend continues, the concerned leaders will get out of the track of the Buddha’s explanation and will sermon what they want to achieve.

Listen very carefully what Lord Buddha said. Understand it correctly. If you understand the Dhamma, then you can see the Lord Buddha in your heart.
