Ascetic phalanyani ,

good to see that there are tries to lead right livelihood in following the tradition of the Noble Ones and good to see that there are people in Germany who are possible able to make fruitful merits with the Nonnen von Anenja .
Also good to see that people (if keeping ten precepts) live from alms.

How ever: If wishing for own benefit, for no mistreding of the tradition of the Noble Ones, for devoted are actually able to make fruitful merits: it's total improper, annoying and not the way of the Noble Ones to:

It's not possible that there is right livelihood when there is wrong view. It's not possible that there is wrong livelihood when based on right view and right resolve. And there are 1001 corrupt ways, blatant and subtle. This case is how ever blatant and even more alarming is to share such as advertising on ones advertising places:



1. Show signs of respect toward lay people
2. Even more ugly to receive gifts like ordinary beggars and trade with gestures of thanks and blessings in return.
3. live like a social help receiver and to social works of what ever kind in return.

(4. There are ways of dressings which are more proper for one wishing to carry no signs of householders)

5. It should not be forgotten that this mode of live is given forgoing beyond world and not to maintain or erect homes even in areas of grave wrong view.

Not only that one damages ones own good ways, cuts them of, one destructs the path for many others and most that of the Noble Ones and those following.

May phalanyani not fall in other silly ways and hopefull her fellow who has looked over the Ārāme Anenja is doing well.

Again, anyway: If one thinks that housholder ways are more secure, is not willing to leave house and does nothing else as trying to pull the Dhamma for the Noble Ones into ones house, why using the image of the Brahmacariya for such?

What do you think that the Savaka Sangha and there following are thinking seeing such?

Neither forces it faith in faithless nor make faith in faithful firm. It's simply socializing with wrong views and for a low livelihood doing such, not a little even an act of compassion.

If not feeling worthy to receive gifts like a Noble One, that change the causes of not feeling to receive gifts with dignity (Würde). And again, to repeat the words of the Buddha toward his disciples: "Better to eat hot iron balls then to receive a gift with strings".

It seems to be nice that the woman in blue receives so much honor and devotion, but you should know how much unskilful debts she problably accumulates with you. Of cause it could be that th lady he in blue is a Noble Person... you much be silly in the way you things... and lead others astray from the Noble Domain as well...

phalanyani Bhikkuni took again rebirth on the commercial, not really free given, social platt form:

Silly Nuns are like silly children: rather to draw the rebukes in simply something better for them, they thing their parents are annoyed, yet would never miss to “tread”. Or they, even more worse, rather to transfere their feeling of indebt into pulling them down, rather then to make it to a driving fire under their lazy and inconsequential bottom. They would, out of reason, like their even silly childs not to play around with what leads to bound in the world, but to see them working for disenchantment and liberation, socialicing with what strives toward liberation, in front or with unbound directly, if outwardly leading is not found. Not happy in regard of this low rebirth and suggestion a higher and proper or even abound it, start to work for it with appamada.

Since just on translating, revising the German: ready just the moment the email came in: lessons of gratitude: http://zugangzureinsicht.org/html/lib/authors/thanissaro/headandhearttogether/Section0004.html proveread welcome.

Either dwelling in third Jhana, or talking, listening to the Dhamma, not socializing, are duties, to gain proper maintaing anyhow and proper.

And a rebirth in Dhamma-desert-lands, under the "not blogging and socializing Nonnen von Anenja  ^-^

Good that the sisters are not alone anymore, or... still to less world or proper support around? Means and objectives are importand, and both can be fixed.

Quote from: ??
http://forum.sangham.net/index.php/topic,8594.msg14700.html#msg14700 , may good rebirth be attained quick, may letting go lead to becoming and being in lands of people with certain right view.

A first proper way would be, not to display one self as vulnerability, calling a sign for devotion, a Bhikkuni, Silly to benefit improper by fake self-belittling and damaging the faith of many, depriving them of places for devotion. Deleting this “Silly-Undertaking” and give people places for benefical sacrifices in making one simply worthy to live wrapped in the flag of the Arahats. Many would have earned to get their sacrifices blessed in this way, las but not least, the “Silly Nun” her self, having gratitude toward her past great deeds which made it possible to get reached at heart.

That's all which is possibly. The rest is up to the possible smart inside ones potential, earlier developed or choices simply out of gratitude and faith into the Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha of admiral people still in reach.
