Dissatisfaction arises from attachment to what one loves and resistance to what one does not love; it is overcome by learning to regard experiences as ordinary and to keep the heart free.
The text recalls the historical event of the formation of the first Sangha community 2,614 years ago, which marked the completeness of the Three Jewels in Buddhism. It emphasizes the significance of the first Dharma discourse (Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta) as a lighthouse for life and practice. The speaker explains the psychological mechanisms of dissatisfaction, which arise from clinging to loved things or resisting unloved experiences. As a countermeasure, a change in inner attitude is proposed: what is perceived as painful or unpleasant should be regarded as an opportunity for practice and letting go. A concrete example from everyday life (polishing a doorknob and the reaction to criticism) illustrates how one responds to stimuli through gratitude and equanimity rather than through anger. The text concludes with the call to practice meditation with the breath in order to keep the heart free from sadness, by learning to regard things as ordinary rather than claiming them as 'mine'.

All of us who are here must know that today is an important day in the Buddhist religion, called the Day of the First Sangha. This day is also a special day that helps us recall an important event that took place 2,614 years ago, because it was the first time the Triple Gem was complete. These Three Gems are the heart of the Buddhist religion. Before that, there was only the Buddha and the Dhamma. The first Sangha arose on the 15th day of the 8th month, 2,614 years ago. This first Sangha, as we know, was the group of five ascetics. Among them, there was one person who would be the first to truly see the Dhamma, to be liberated, and to attain the five stages of enlightenment. These five elders attained the fruit of arahantship, becoming arahants. The event of the first Sangha arising in the 8th month in the Buddhist religion is significant. What is it significant for? It is significant because it was the first time the Dhamma was heard from the Buddha-Dhamma, not called the Dhamma, but the Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta, which was the first sermon of the Buddha after the attainment of the Path of the Four Noble Truths. This sermon is very important. It is not only important because the Dhamma arose for the first time in the Buddhist religion and enabled Venerable Kondanna to become a noble person, to have direct insight, and to become a stream-enterer, making the establishment of the Sangha very important for everyone. It is not only important for the founding of the Sangha, the community of monks. If we like to speak, if we have the opportunity to understand the meaning or the significance of this event, it will be a great benefit for our lives.

Or is it something that we have given as being something we love, something we are pleased with? If it goes away, we are not pleased. It is just the experience of something we do not love, something we are not pleased with. Something that strikes the body, or something that touches the body. If we feel it, we are not pleased. Or pain is the same. If we view it as ordinary, without resistance, without giving it a negative interpretation, then we are not pleased. Or even more so, if something happens to us, something we experience, instead of us not being pleased, we change it to be good. But Phra Punnana, when the test was unlocked, if something unpleasant arises, the truth still flows. Phra Punnana, he took the other, all we've investigated, he took before, Spain decided. Phra Punnana, he took before, Spain decided. The truth is scattered. Phra Punnana, Luis, is somewhat displeased, does not like it. But Phra Punnana replied that the irritation that he did not take, due to the queen, and then the Lord asked, if he easily dies, how is it? Because you have the power to make him die. It is good. Because some people are tired of life and want to die, they must hire someone to kill them. If not, they must seek weapons. If someone does this for the Lord, it is also good. Then we wait. Then, slowly, going back and forth, it is finished. I am finished at the temple. Like that, it is good. I am at the temple, but I only got two or three words. Slowly, people know, sorry, because this slow thing arises in the path, must come late, everything ends. Okay, get in the car. Those who are with you prepare to weigh. Look for the way home. When it ends, I only got two or three hours. But, fake, evil, stealing, better than it is. Go to my house, lay down in the car. Sitting in the car, going for a while, the car breaks down in the path. It is good. Arriving at the workplace, also doing work, or it is that you are waiting for me on that day. But you said everything is good. You finished creating the form. There is a pint of water, coffee. You drink. The body asks, the coffee is very good. You say it is good. Then if they put down the coffee cup, the child nods. The coffee of the lower one is solid, looking at people. Also, the lower one gives it. Because the child borrows the coffee, they call it. If you sell it away, because it is very full. People who drink coffee put in sugar, because they think it is sugar. The child says, sugar, how? It will die. Also says it is good. Long time, will get. I want something full. What is happening to you? If it were another person, they would say it is a matter that causes suffering, because it is not pleasing, it is a bad thing. Just now, I thought, what is happening to you? Because I said, with things we do not love, are not pleased with, there is no Dharma in billions of pale. Because I know, view that this arises, it is finished with the apple, has a good way there. Can handle various things, change bad to good. Because if we know how to see good things, Dharma separates bad things. Many people are suffering when encountering pain, because they view pain as something bad. Which is ordinary for us to view it that way. But many people are not right when encountering pain, because they see that pain is a good thing, or it gives them good things. Do not tell people not to be grateful. Being grateful is madness, because madness helps understand the whole life. But if you see from that thing, even if encountered, it is not right. Many people know, Jod Jandai. Jod Jandai is an icon, idol of the new generation. Suppachai, return to nature. But when he was young, he did not have money, gold. We say when he went to work, to study at Chulalongkorn University, also tried to find a job. Got a job as a government officer, in a place in Bangkok. If Suppachai is a minority, there is this boss, a woman. Jod said he had never met a person like this, because she only scolds, only looks, only says. If anything is not to her liking, she scolds. One day, this boss told Jod to polish the doorknob of the bedroom, brass. Did not notice the work order. Jod took the brass to polish the doorknob. After finishing polishing, the manager walked by. Seeing Jod polishing the doorknob, he said, how can you use brass to polish the doorknob? You cannot polish it. That day, even the cleaning lady, who was about to call for help, the manager again scolded Jod that day. How can you do that? Is it usable? Jod, who was about to get angry, smiled at the cleaning lady, then folded his hands, and said, thank you for reminding me. Since then, when scolded by the cleaning lady, he would smile and fold his hands. Until the people around them said, that Jod is crazy, toothless, already beaten and still smiling. Some said Jod is stupid, let him be hit smoothly. Jod said he did not feel anything. He felt it all, did not finish crying. He thanked the cleaning lady who scolded him, because it was a reminder for him, and it made him realize, manage himself, until often, even this cleaning lady, arose with doubt. Called him to ask why, when I scold you, you fold your hands to me, and then say thank you. He also explained that, when the cleaning lady scolds, what is experienced becomes a good thing. Good in the aspect of coming to wake up mindfulness, or good that it is not separated. That suffering does not arise.
This is something we can reflect upon. It is made from the Dhamma. Many people, when they realize that they are suffering because they encounter things that are unloved or unsatisfactory, or because they are separated from things that are loved or satisfactory, they rush to cry out and beg, saying, "Please do not let this situation happen. Please do not let me encounter things that are unloved or unsatisfactory. Please do not let me be separated from things that are loved or satisfactory." But in reality, there is a method that makes us not suffer. It is to work on the mind. Whatever has been loved or satisfactory before, we change it to be an ordinary thing. But we do wrappingصلèreires Romanian cause of prestolveot, it is not a result. These two things: the encounter with things that are unloved or unsatisfactory, or eleagram достаточноMusikód things. In this way, the more one loves or is satisfied, it is like the matter of the mind us. If one is obstructed, one can be blocked. One loves and is satisfied because we cling to it, thinking it is ours, ours, ours, Broadway. So when we cling to it, Slow, happiness gives happiness to us. But if we do not cling to it, thinking it is ours, when the time comes to lose it, it is not a problem, like a person who extinguishes a fire. It is a level of far 30, losing it, the mind does not suffer. All this day, it is a matter that requires more effort and practice, which you have already indicated the path for. The matter of being a cause of suffering already exists in the Dhamma of the high gate. It is still a point that we should want to learn and should remember deeply until this day, because doing this, as if telling us, it is the life plate that indicates the path of our life, from birth to death, and it also indicates that we must encounter suffering. We must fix it, we must mentally old, we must separate irt, we must sex, we must fatigue. ฤัตรพรราดช contrast from things that we are not good, so we do not have to be angry with things that are not obtained or not satisfactory. It is just that we can do it, so we suffer, but the mind does not suffer. If we know how to take the nature that is refined, it is sufficient for the time. So, may we all listen together and do this on this day. From now on, we will prepare the turning of the wheel with the breath.
