The Core of Dhamma Teaching : PMP354 Model

Threefold Learning (1. Training in higher morality; 2. Training in higher mentality; 3. Training in higher wisdom)
The Power : Controlling faculty; (1. Confidence 2. Energy; effort 3. Mindfulness 4. Concentration 5. wisdom; understanding.)
The sublime states of mind ; (1. Loving kindness 2.Compassion 3.Sympathetic joy 4.Equanimity.)

Kindfulness has an operating system by which it runs 5 presuppositions,

such as #1 “A thought is not a territory” because What happens in our mind or anyone’s is caused by thoughts in our brains. It’s just another perspective from past stories that we’ve experienced, not real territories or events. It is just some of the information that we perceived.

When anyone tells a story about what happened, they merely tell what they perceived from that event, not the whole story, and gives some meaning from the conclusions of their past experience as a decision. Therefore, we need to realize that what they say is a point of view, not all of the truth. We must learn to forgive.

Forgiveness of all of the past, in order to actually lead to the present moment phenomena.

If we can change the structure of past experiences to confidence positive energy here and now, it means that we can permanently change our life on that matter.

It is really amazing, isn’t it? We can change the meaning in every situation of ourselves or others, where every problem isn’t a problem anymore. Because we don’t feel bad about it.

How much happiness and success can be achieved?
