	Environment - Lily De Silva
		The situation in the modern world is such that all three morally unwholesome motivational roots seem to be active and man is receiving three-pronged retribution for his own immoral actions.
		The Samannaphalasutta (Dighanikaya I.76) states that the mind is interwoven with the body, and that it can be seen to be so by one who has developed the fourth jhana, like a coloured thread that passes through a transparent gem.
		It can be surmised that the mind is associated with the air element in the body because the breathing pattern changes with emotional changes, e.g., we sigh when we are sad, we yawn when we are lazy, we snort when angry and gasp in pain.

		This is what the suttas mean by akasa-dhatu (space-element), when it is counted as one of the six elements (dhatu) into which the empiric individuality is analysed.
		And when the Sangiti Sutta of the Dighanikaya refers to a material phenomenon that is neither visible (anidassana) nor impingent (appatigha), it is very likely that the reference is to this space element.
		And it is this same space-element that we find in the abhidhamma list of secondary material phenomena (upada-rupa) as the principle of material delimitation (pariccheda-rupa).

	Wat Thai Kusinara Chalermraj
		According to the Suttantapitaka (The Basket of Discourses), Dighanikaya (The Collection of Long Discourses), at that time, 'Kusinara' (present day Kushinagar) was called 'Kusavati Royal City'.
		The city was full of beautiful palaces decorated residences, abandoned natural resources, numerous lotus ponds built of silver, gold and cat's-eye like bricks, and gardens with flower trees blossoming in different seasons.
		The 4 holy places, Lumbini, Bodhgaya, Sarnath and Kusinara, were where Buddhism originated in India 2586 years ago.

	The Ideal of Service in Buddhism
		By expounding the duties of the householder, Buddha taught with clarity how people should live with their family members and other members of society, bringing happiness not only to themselves but also to the world at large.
		The “Mahaparinibbana Sutta” of the Dighanikaya describes seven conditions for the welfare, prosperity, and happiness of any community, nation or country.
		These conditions must be considered before serving the people for their gradual development and welfare.

	The Ultimate Buddhist art - American History Information Guide and Reference
		The Lotus, symbol of pure, unspoiled Buddha Nature, for its beautiful blooming and the impossibility for water to adhere to it, leaving it spotless.
		This reluctance towards anthropomorphic representations of the Buddha, and the sophisticated development of aniconic symbols to avoid it (even in narrative scene where other human figures would appear), seems to be connected to one of the Buddha’s sayings, reported in the Dighanikaya, that disfavored representations of himself after the extinction of his body.
		This tendency remained as late as the 2nd century CE in the Southern parts of India, in the art of the Amaravati school (see: Mara's assault on the Buddha).

		The birth, for instance, can be found in Mahapadana Sutta of Dighanikaya.
		The story of the Buddha before his passing away, the time of Parinibbana and after the passing away upto relic distribution to kings of various kingdoms can be studied in Mahaparinibbana Sutta of Dighanikaya.
		1) Dighanikaya - a collection of long suttas - long discourses such as Brahmajala Sutta, Mahaparinibbana Sutta, Maha - satipatฺhana Sutta, etc. It consists of three parts - Silakhandhavagga, Maha vagga, and Patฺkavagga.

		The putting of the first four Nikatyas under head No. 4 with the implication that these were anterior to the Suttanipata and the remaining books of the Pali canon are no less open to dispute.
		With regard to the Dighanikaya it has been directly pointed out by Buddhaghosa that the concluding verses of the Mahaparinibbana Suttanta relating to the redisribution of Buddha's bodily remains were originally composed by the rehearsers of the Third Buddhist Council and added later on by the Buddhist teachers of Ceylon.
		A material objection to putting the Digha and the Anguttara Nikayas in the same category is that in the Digha Nikaya the story of Mahagovinda (Digha, II., p.173 pp.

	How free is freedom of thought
		In fact unlike some of the Sama teachers the Buddha did not totally condemn the Vedas as foolish babb1e.
		The four Mahapadesas (great authorities) referred to in the Mahaparinibbana Sutta of the Dighanikaya clearly show the importance attached by the Buddha to such traditions.
		The Payasi Sutta of Dighanikaya shows the Buddha's general attitude to all kinds of tradition.

	ANTIQUITY OF JAINISM
		Even Buddha after giving up the worldly life lived in the company of the saints who practiced austerities and were possibly Jains.
		In the Samannaphala Sutta of the Dighanikaya, there is a reference to the four vows (Chaturyama Dharma) in contradiction to the five vows of Mahavira.
		The four vows of Parsva were :- not to take life, not to tell a lie, not to steal and not to own property.

	Mental Hindrances
		The five hindrances are the defilements that obstruct people’s progress and happiness.
		According to the Dighanikaya, the Buddha compared the person overpowered by these mental hindrances with:
		He is worried by thoughts that the creditor will ask him to repay the debt in full, the interest will increase, or the property deposit will be taken away if he does not make haste to repay the debt, and so on.

	Scientology's Relationship With Eastern Religious Traditions
		The Buddha, however, feared that these psychic powers would cause disciples to lose sight of their highest goal (nirvana), and reportedly he announced that "because I perceive danger in the practice of mystic wonders [i.e.
		'psychic powers'] that I loathe, abhor, and am ashamed thereof" (Dighanikaya i, 213, quoted in Ling, 1981:111).
		Hubbard's boldest attempt to legitimise Scientology by associating himself with Buddhism appears in his 1974 publication, The Hymn of Asia (1974a), which he wrote a number of years earlier in 1956.

		There are scriptural evidence showing how the Bodhisattva, from his childhood engaged in meditation and how he, in his ‘noble search’ went to different teachers and learnt meditation.
		The Mahapadana sutta of the Dighanikaya describes how all Buddhas saw the ‘four signs’ (a sick person, an old person, a corpse and an ascetic).
		Even Bodhisatta Siddhartha Gautama encountered them and that brought about a dramatic change in his life.
