Every day, I wake up to a cassette recital of distorted Dhamma by cassette broadcast, while monks are partaking the early morning breakfast.
I now know that I wake up because of the early mornings hypoglycaemia and a toffee or a few biscuits put me back to my dream state.
Today luckily due to the rain, I did not hear the recital and I woke up to my cellphone alarm.
This piece is after a nice cup of tea.
Tea invigorates you more than the irritating Dhamma recital by the cassette.
Now the Buddha is called Dhamma Raja due to.enormous volumes of Dhamma, he preached.
He also warns knowing 1000 stanzas makes you no better but knowing one with true understanding is an achievement.
The raja here has a different connotation and meaning.
It does relate to a real king or someone who tries to become a king by force of attraction to a political party.
What these guys in saffron cloths do is to make his dream a reality, not an illusion in the sense of Dhamma.
This piece is for course correction, not by force but by true understanding of what is left of Dhamma without distortion.
The Dhamma Pada is the corner stone for learning Dhamma.
Be mindful of both the Dhamma and the guys preaching it by cassettes.
