[Original post:]

 

Dear valued Norum,

your work is a huge dana to the people and to you yourself. What a great example of diligence and discipline. Sadhu. Sadhu. Sadhu. May it be helpful for the Cambodian people in search of the Noble Truth.

 

[Norum]

Sadhu sadhu sadhu may you and all the people get the merits.

[Dhammañāṇa]

That is not possible, but to wish such is again you Merit, Njom Norum .
Only if somebody would rejoice wish you deeds, "diese anerkennen", or even read the present of the Deathlessness, he/she could cause him/herself even the highest liberation.

Allow Atma to cut the Anumodana of the home and Dwelling giver of the Deathless and of the repeater and making the Dhamma easier to receive of this Topic and put it into the general Anumodana Forum, leaving a cross link behind, letting people know that merits are not gained by producing or just consuming death products but all those who have gained and also those who had shared the highest liberation by doing, while doing, being a sample at the very same time of the Dhamma they carry for a while. That is what the Noble Ones call Dhamma-Vinaya, in accordiance with Dhamma-Vinaya, because only that give it possible survive, the words by its on can not deliver anything since they are without heartwood missing the actor.
That means the more one gets direct involved, the more near on is participator of the Ariyā-Uposathā, takes part of the way and costume of the Noble Ones and even he/she is not able to reach path and fruit in this very live, does not penetrated to insight, he/she made secure to find the good Dhamma in a future existence, will have way to make his/her way later on, having trained in words, deeds and learned how to clean mind.
In that way nothing to worry even if dying yet the work not done already. What ever is given is not lost.

[Dhammañāṇa]

Atma, Njom Sophorn and all others like to add something about "for Cambodian people".
Do not think so, do not waste you merits. People would easily do things for their childs, mother, their beloved, country... that is Loka-Dana, and if we think about Chon Nat and his forcing of nationalty, we all know whatputting ooly the smallest conceit into Dhamma causes. It always run out into holocaust, when people start to make the Tripple Gems their own.
The outstandig deed here is that people simply give to the Sangha of noboby else than the Buddha, independent, cut of of any jātī (jeat), not corrupted, having changed to beings aside of conceit. Their are even people, when we take Moritz , who will never directly, personally be able to benefit from a work in a alian language. Such a faith, such a wisdom bears really fruits, similar when a uneducated soilder a farmer in the mountain, naturally very nationalistic and full of conceit, nevertheless gives without waiting a moment a foeigner with long nose, a normal potencal enemy, almsfood, seeing and knowing that this person has left the ways to another kind.

So should we see and care about the Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha, far beyond silly thinking in ways of brotherhood, yet possible not reached being one of those.

So Atma likes to encourage all of you, even a health amount of conceit is nedded to keep one self beautyful, do never fall into the trap like the original translator sadly did, giving many the possibility to let really bad kamma ripe.

Beyond family which is not rightously that of the four pairs, eight people, this work is good placed and done.
Its good and fruit full not to work for a personal benefit and so stoping to nurish defilements.
That is why Moritz here, for example, has the most benefit. Its good to help one working not for his interest nor for that of the helper.

It all sounds maybe complicated...so simply keep the Noble Sangha as Nimitta while working, join the work and encourage others to let go of selfish interests "for my child, for my nation..." and put effort and sacrify into things that are really worthy for sacrifices.
Thats actually a "mangul do odom" a highest blessing, not only it self is it conneceted with most of all the other highest blessings.

One walking the path of the Noble Ones, even with the first step into their direction, automatically help ever being as much ever possible. Every "smarter" way, mixed with a punch of kilesas we love to call compassion, keep them for heroic deeds, mostly leads to much suffering and no end of it. So be care ful, be or better do always Khmer (khemā = person or land at peace)
So actually its total good if it is done for khema, but importand to understand the deep and rightous meaning correct.

If khema people keep the word and tradition of the Buddha alive, it possible will not disappear in this world, but will disappear even in one generation if the meaning and quality of khema is lost and taken over by pride, greed and conceit. The Khmer/khema Sutta is by the way in AN, maybe one likes to share the sutta obout one who has come to peace also in convential khema language. AN 9.52 pali

Atma trusts that this possible many words and rants are helpful, again and again.

* Johann : Btw. Njom Norum, you do good in forcing and "beating" Njom Sophorn to also start to type, give her a task that she MUST do. Not only will she get more familar to the language Khmer but also attain Khema soon. Its proper to "punish" people with words to their highest luck.

[Norum]

It is just the way we share merits and Anumudana punna kiriya.
Anyhow, people must know and be happy with. every thing bad or good is just depend on their mind.

If Upasika Sophorn kindly want to help here, I will send her my next Volume, so that she doenst need to type but just check for mistakes and post in the Forum.
Please let me know.
