Restless Society and Restrained Mind

Today, our society is restless and nowhere do we find real peace. There are many people who spend restless nights and they show signs of impatience and agitation in their daily life. The restless waves can be found in their mind and those mind-waves generate restless behavior - seeking some sort of satisfaction from for example, entertainment, shopping snacking, gossiping, driving around or taking alcohol or drugs. They do not find enough time to pay attention to their spirituality. In this restless society we clearly find that many are running after money and material happiness.

Appendix II: Meditation on Loving-Kindness

May I be free from enmity, disease and grief and may I take care of myself happily.

As I am, so also may my teachers, preceptors, parents, intimate, indifferent and inimical beings, be free from enmity, disease and grief, and may they take care of themselves happily!

May they be released from suffering! 
May they not be deprived of their fortune, duly acquired! 
May all living beings be free from emnity, disease and grief and may they take care of themselves happily!
