Sacred Arts.
Today got my capacitive stylus, a tool for painting on touch-screen devices as smartphones or tablets.
i wish to create sacred arts eventually, mostly from buddhist & wiccan perspective.
... today started to create such attempt at art, there's a long way before me, i need to learn how to use this stylus skillfully.

Understanding Suffering, Developing Compassion.
Introduction.
Buddhism can be seen as the Way on which one develops Wisdom & Compassion.
... i think that the important part of Wisdom development is understanding suffering, not only theoretically but also by experience.
Suffering can take many forms, from poverty to loneliness, to physical or mental illness.
... i think that those who do not understand poverty do not see need to share, do not understand Dana.
... it's also the Buddhist truth that 'karma returns', that we'll be sooner or later experiencing our good deeds and bad deeds returning to us.
Every of our actions on Mind, Speech and Body levels seeds karma for our future.
In Buddhism, Compassion should extend not only to others, but also to oneself. Without including oneself in an act of compassion, compassion is stupid and not complete.
Blog author's experience.
Today i've shared 20 PLN with an old woman who begged on the streets, she asked for mere 0,05 PLN.
... 20 PLN is not small amount for me - it's about the price of a good meal, or many, many, many of poorer meals - and i do not tell this to brag, but to make people understand, that one can give or help in small ways as well.
She told me to: 'Go with God'.
i've explained that i am Buddhist, but i also respect / Catholic / Church.
She asked me: 'Will you go with God?'
... i've answered: 'Yes, but not fully'.
She thanked me for that.
Church's wisdom is: 'do not do to others what you do not like for yourself', but abstaining from doing harm is often not enough, i think.
i think one needs to alleviate harm, and to protect against harm, as well.
... i think we Buddhists do not want to give others impression that 'we are so developed that we don't understand problems of a common man or woman'.
... i think that understanding suffering can be an answer to a question: 'How to practice Compassion?'
That way, as Wisdom about suffering is developed, one can more skilfully practice Compassion - the first part of the Four Immeasurables Practice.
... i think that people who wish others harm 'should learn', should understand suffering they are putting others into - not only theoretically but also by experience.
... how to give 'bad people' such lessons in a beneficial way?
... how to avoid anger, hate, revenge?
