You are all sons and daughters of Buddha because you were given a new life with the words of Buddha. How did those sons and daughters of Buddha live? Samagga—united, free from quarreling, with happiness inside.
Sammodamana —all the time there is compassion, love, happiness, cordiality. That is the quality of a Buddha Putra or a Buddha Putri, of a son or daughter of the Buddha. Avivadamana —they don’t quarrel. If they quarrel then they are not fit sons and fit daughters.
And then, khirodakibhuta . Khira means milk, Udaka means water: they live like water and milk joined together; you can’t separate them. And they look at each other with love in their eyes, not with anger, not with red eyes. Their eyes are full of honey— piyacakkhu , so much love. This is their way of life. That ideal must be continued. This is the code of the family: khirodakibhuta . The whole family must live like brothers and sisters. Be an example; be ideal.
People look at you, so it is very important that your relations with each other are very cordial. People should be encouraged, inspired, seeing you. You should attract people towards Dhamma, who, until now, have had no attraction to it. And you must see that those people who have already been attracted to Dhamma are attracted more strongly.
It is a very big responsibility. This is the time when the expansion is starting. Now it will be very rapid, there is no doubt. We are very fortunate that we have an opportunity to serve in such a good atmosphere. This is a time when there is so much unhappiness; Dhamma has to arise. It has started arising. It will grow, in spite of us, whether we are there or not. Now we have an opportunity to serve and to develop our own paramis.
Make use of the opportunity for your own good and for the good of others; for your own liberation and happiness, and for the liberation and happiness of others. May Dhamma grow! May the people of the world come out of their miseries! May there be peace, harmony, and happiness!
Bhavatu sabba maṅgalaṃ —May all beings be happy!
